Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 423 Never expected

As the sun sets, Yanjing Television Station in the dusk begins to prepare to broadcast the cartoon "Astro Boy".

Not even a single light was turned on in the deputy director's office.

Zhou Yeming leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed, thinking about the numerous phone calls he had received that afternoon.

I couldn't help but hum softly:

"We are all sharpshooters, and each bullet kills an enemy..."

He never expected that a "National Day tribute film" he was involved in would cause such a big stir.

Many senior leaders who had never met me before called the station to express their appreciation.

Some leaders even said to themselves: In the future, we can do more of this kind of topics, and if we need any resources, we can directly...

In a nutshell, it was worth all the effort I put into preparing this short film!
"On that high hill, we have countless good brothers!"

Ding--

The phone on the table rang again.

Zhou Yeming reached out and picked up the phone.

"It's me, Gu Zhengzheng."

"Is it difficult to call me?"

After receiving so many calls from other companies, Zhou Yeming finally waited for this one: "How is our tribute film? Isn't it great?"

"What tribute film?" Gu Zhengzheng said stubbornly, "I haven't even heard of it."

"You haven't heard of it? No way."

Zhou Yeming smiled.

He could now imagine Gu Zhengzheng's current expression.

It must be exactly the same as when I first saw "Tribute: The Eternal Wave":
"Your Pujiang Film Studio called me this afternoon to inquire about it, but you haven't heard anything about it?
But it doesn’t matter, there are two more opportunities to watch it later in the evening, and our station has already increased the broadcast volume of this short film.”

"Look at how proud you are," Gu Zhengzheng said, "Pujiang Film Studio called you? Why did they call you?"

"It's nothing, actually," Zhou Yeming said.
"They were very interested in the people and positions in the segment about the Nanchang Uprising in the short film and asked us what references we had drawn from it."

"What materials did you refer to?"

"Jiangshan found three paintings from the National Museum,"

Zhou Yeming did not hide anything: "It has been clearly drawn up long ago."

Looking at the other side again, Gu Zhengzheng covered the phone, nodded at Hu Xiao, and said silently: It's Jiangshan.

Hu Xiao laughed in an instant: "We should have thought of this earlier. Who else has this style besides him?"

"Oh, by the way, Lao Zhou,"

Gu Zhengzheng also had a question: "Who said that sentence before the atomic bomb exploded in the short film?"

"What do you think?" Zhou Yeming was most proud of this part: "Of course, it was Mr. Qian who said it himself."

"It's really Mr. Qian's voice!"

"Does this sound exciting?" Zhou Yeming said, "I personally conducted the telephone interview through Jiang Shan's connections."

"So, you've talked to Mr. Qian?" Gu Zhengzheng was really envious now: "No, how come Xiao Jiang was the one behind this?"

"Isn't it amazing?" Zhou Yeming smiled:

“In fact, this sentence came from a conversation between Mr. Qian and Comrade Chen Geng in 55.

When I interviewed him on the phone about this matter, Mr. Qian said to me with a smile:
At that time, Comrade Chen Geng came all the way back from Yenching to Harbin to meet me.
The first thing he said to me when he saw me was: Can the Chinese develop missiles?

I replied: Why can't the Chinese do that? "

"And then you recorded it?"

"I have obtained Mr. Qian's permission."

At this moment, Gu Zhengzheng hoped that one day he could interview the meritorious senior executives in person: "You guys are really awesome!"

"That is," Zhou Yeming:

“When I saw the script Jiang Shan handed in, my first feeling was that I had to complete this work without any compromise.

Do you know how much effort I put in?

Personally contact the actors, costumes and props, arrange the scene and control the lighting...

Fortunately, Jiang Shan and Fu Lin are both capable people, which is why this scene was completed so beautifully. "

I have to say that Director Zhou was really helpful this time, as he found a large number of professional actors for the crew in the shortest possible time.

For the first time ever, recruitment notices were posted in art schools and theater troupes in the name of CCTV.

The phrase "a tribute to National Day" has forced the Central Academy of Drama, which never allows students to take acting jobs, to temporarily close its eyes.

"Then how did you decide on the date for the First Congress?" Gu Zhengzheng was very curious about this.

"Go find the first issue of this year's Chinese Social Sciences magazine."

Zhou Yeming said: "There is an article on it called "Research on the Date and Number of People Convened at the First National Congress".

If you go and see, you will know that they have been busy with this for many years. "

China's record in the 2s and 30s is very confusing.

There were only two comrades who persevered to the end during the First Congress.

But as to when the First National Congress was held, they also said they could not remember clearly.

Later, because we could only confirm a general date, July, we decided to designate July 7 as the birthday of the Party.

Coincidentally, the time came to 1980.

A party history expert from the PLA Logistics Academy published an article in the January issue of the magazine "Social Sciences in China".

After years of data collection, he finally found the following record in a Soviet report:
——Starting from July 7, the First Congress of the Communist Party of China was held.

In addition, before this, Li Junchen, the administrator of the Yenching Revolutionary Museum, also expressed the same view when he found a 1921 copy of the New Youth newspaper.

Before Chen Gongbo rebelled, he published a travelogue titled "A Ten-Day Trip to Chunshenpu" in the New Youth newspaper.

The careful Li Junchen discovered the hidden secrets in this travelogue.

Chen Gongbo wrote in his travel notes: On July 7, he set off for Shanghai to join a society, and met two foreign friends there.

Li Junchen inferred that the "Shanghai Academy" mentioned here should be the "First National Congress".

The two foreign friends corresponded to the two representatives of the Communist International.

According to the date recorded in this travelogue, the meeting time was exactly July 7rd.

Unfortunately, whether it is Li Junjie from the Revolutionary Museum or this article in this year's "Social Sciences in China".

None of them have attracted the attention of today's people.

In the end, it was CCTV's "National Day tribute film" that made it known to the world.

……

CCTV’s “National Day Tribute” had a successful premiere.

At this moment, all the major drama troupes of the Central Academy of Drama, Beijing Film Academy, and Yenching Academy are eagerly waiting for the rebroadcast of this film.

Whenever this movie appears on TV, it immediately causes excitement.

Anyone who can show their face in the show will point at the TV excitedly for a long time.

Among them is Comrade Li Xuejian, who played Li Dazhao.

Although he was not as excited as the students at the art school, he saw himself waving his arms and cheering on TV again.

I still stroke my chin and can't help laughing.

After being a minor actor in dramas for so many years, he unexpectedly plays such a prominent and famous role as soon as he appears on screen.

How can I not be excited!

Also, I don’t know if it’s just my illusion.

I always feel that the deputy director named Jiangshan has always been particularly respectful and caring towards me.

It’s a pity that Director Jiang is always accompanied by Chen Peisi and Xie Yuan, two people who seem to be shrewd and calculating, but seem to be unable to figure out anything.

Otherwise, he would have to go up and have a good chat with the other party.

Forget it, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!

……

Pujiang City, Grandview Cinema. A movie "Lush Mountain Love" is playing on the big screen.

The audience present looked so happy that her eyes were like water, her heart was filled with passion and her face was rosy.

Whether it’s in the movie, the way the male and female protagonists interact when they are in love.

Or the dazzling fashions, high heels, small purses, and Polaroid cameras of the heroine on the screen...

They are all touching the nerve endings of all the audience.

Beautiful, really beautiful, it’s beautiful everywhere!
This is a film about the daughter of a former Kuomintang general living in the United States, who returns to China and dates the son of a high-ranking official in the picturesque Lushan scenic area.

As my country's first color wide-screen movie, the screenwriter Bi Bicheng is familiar with all the scenic spots in Lushan Mountain.

A series of famous sceneries of Mount Lushan were arranged in the film "Love in Mount Lushan".

The most important thing is that the plot of this movie breaks through the current taboos of love.

This is simply a signal of liberation for the audience on the scene.

Especially when the heroine Zhang Yu kissed Guo Kaimin!
Oh my god, it just rubbed the edge like that.

It actually made the gay men at the scene more excited than Guo Kaimin on the screen.

Although many female comrades present had already covered their faces in embarrassment.

But everyone's little heart is already beating like a gong or drum.

Known as "the first kiss in New China", "Lush Mountain Love" not only set a Guinness record for the longest continuous screening time and number of showtimes.

Even now, he is still an outstanding representative of the film class.

The ticket price was 2.5 cents per ticket, and it was said that the film sold 100 million yuan in just one week of release.

The male and female protagonists conform to today's public aesthetic standards: Zhang Yu and Guo Kaimin.

The whole film exudes a sweet taste of love.

The 43 costumes worn by Zhang Yu in the movie made many female comrades walk out of the cinema and rush into department stores when the movie was broadcast that year.

According to the actors’ recollections, many lesbians filled the malls and asked: Do you have the same clothes, bags, and hats as Zhou Yun in the movie “Lush Mountain Love”?

Many lesbians went to the cinema again with cameras just to see the clothes in the movie.

Then, she would either go home and sew on a sewing machine, or take the photo to a tailor shop.

Anyway, everyone shows off their talents and beauty.

But one thing is certain.

With the limited patterns available in fabric stores today, no one can hope to make a design that is exactly the same as the one on the big screen.

You should know that last year, in order to find all these colorful fabrics, even Xu Muchun from the Light Industry Bureau lent a hand.

Things are different now. In this life, not only are the same clothes from "Lush Mountain Love" hanging in department stores.

There were also many fashionable lesbians who sat in the cinema wearing the same clothes as Zhang Yu.

When they found that the heroine on the big screen was wearing the same dress as themselves and walked up to Mount Lushan.

Those young women of the same type sitting in the audience were so excited.

Especially at the end of the movie, when the lights come on and you slowly walk out of the cinema.

"Oh, isn't that the purple dress she's wearing the same one the overseas Chinese woman in the movie wore?"

"It's beautiful. It looks beautiful on her too."

“It’s exactly the same!”

"Comrade, where did you buy this skirt?"

“Did you buy it in the country?”

"..."

What a joy!

All the lesbians who were recognized by their clothes in the cinema felt very happy.

No other clothes can make you look so impressive as the "Chunfengdu" women's clothing!

How about changing into another pair and walking around tomorrow?
……

Finally, starting from the release of the movie "Lush Mountain Love" on September 9, the "Chunfengdu" women's clothing brand, which has been working silently for more than half a year, has completely ushered in a full-scale outbreak.

It took only about ten days to shoot the "National Day Tribute" in Jiangshan.

The "Spring Breeze" women's clothing, which was already very popular, suddenly became a hot-selling commodity that was highly sought-after in major cities and shopping malls.

Ever since the previous few shows of the “Spring Breeze” star performance team.

Careful citizens soon discovered that the tape poster of Zhu Fengbo's "Roses Bloom Everywhere" in Xinhua Bookstore;

The tapes, record posters and covers of the "New Star Concert" all feature "Chunfengdu" clothing.

It was not until then that people realized that "Spring Breeze" had already become popular among celebrities.

In recent days, Jiang's father has been able to walk around the second garment factory with ease.

The factory manager came to persuade Jiang Xiangnan every day to quickly assign the unfinished orders to other workshops to complete.

Otherwise, their factory would not dare to accept orders.

I originally thought that Jiang Xiangnan would hold me tightly like a child, but I didn't expect him to agree so readily.

Father Jiang never forgot what the third brother said.

[After the movie is released, we will release as many copies as possible in the shortest possible time! ]

At that time, the output of the small four workshops was simply not enough to complete such a huge order.

It would be better to divide the order.

Anyway, it will not affect the ex-factory price.

Didn’t the third brother say that there will be many more opportunities like this in the future?

In short, now is the best time for the third company to quickly recover profits.

……

It was almost dusk when we left Qingdao Railway Station.

Jiang Shan and Wang Fulin and his party squeezed into a medium-sized van.

On this trip to Qingdao, Jiangshan still brought Yu Sigui, Huang Yongyu, Wang Shixiang and Chen Peisi.

As for Wang Fulin, he only brought Ren Dahui with him.

At this moment, everyone was sitting in the van, swaying and looking at the Qingdao city outside the window.

When passing by a movie theater with a large poster of "Lush Mountain Love", Jiang Shan and Yu Sigui took a few more glances at it at the same time.

"Comrade,"

Jiang Shan looked at the two comrades from the Foreign Trade Department and asked: "Where are we staying tonight?"

"It's not us," the comrade from the Ministry of Foreign Trade laughed, "It's you!"

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Shan and Chen Peisi looked at each other and asked, "Are you going back tonight?"

"We don't live in the same place as you do,"

The comrade from the Foreign Trade Department looked back at Jiangshan and said, "We are staying in the guesthouse of the Qingdao Soda Factory..."

"What about us?"

"You'll know in a moment."

The scenery ahead is becoming more and more interesting.

Huang Yongyu and Wang Shixiang could no longer help but turn their heads to look at the country.

After a while, the view in front of me suddenly opened up.

Everyone's thoughts came out in an instant: Could it be there?

"See that house by the sea?" The comrade from the Foreign Trade Department looked at everyone and said with a smile, "That's where you live in Qingdao."

"Ouch!"

"Wow~"

"Wonderful!"

In an instant, the entire van was filled with joy!
