The literary era since 1979

The week-long China-US Writers Conference ended successfully. Feng Mu, Jiang Zilong and others were invited by Nie Hualing to prepare to leave for Iowa.

Considering that he had a lot of things to do, Fangyan obtained Feng Mu's consent and temporarily left the team.

"Yanzi, you really won't go with us?"

Tie Ning stood at the entrance of the airport.

Fang Yan said: "I still have some things to take care of here. When I'm done, I'll go meet up with you guys."

"Alright."

Jiang Zilong joked that with Yan Zi around, just like this time's China-US Writers Conference, she was always the protagonist in the spotlight, and they were just supporting roles. This time, when they went to have a literary exchange with the students of the International Writing Program, they had to be the protagonist again.

"Haha, Zilong is blaming me."

Fang Yan smiled and said, "Then when the time comes, you guys can be the protagonists, and I'll be your supporting role."

Everyone smiled knowingly, then carried their luggage and entered the airport one after another.

Fang Yan waved his hand, watched their backs disappear from his sight, then returned to the hotel, took a shower, and prepared to take a comfortable rest, waiting for Mike, He Guanchang, Cheng Long and others to return from Burbank and report to him on the initial negotiations with Warner.

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Qingxia was wearing an off-white high-waisted jumpsuit, with her jet-black hair falling on her shoulders, standing gracefully at the door.

"Sorry to disturb your rest."

"It doesn't matter."

Fang Yan invited her into the house and said, "I thought you went to Warner with Boss He, Cheng Long and the others."

Lin Qingxia said that Ho Kwun-chang asked her to stay as a liaison so that she could keep in touch with Fangyan at all times.

"And this time, I came here mainly for my own personal matters..."

"You want to know about your sister, right?"

Fang Yan said that some clues had indeed been found about the whereabouts of Lin Li and Lin Weiyun.

When Lin Qingxia asked, she found out that the journey to find her relatives was not smooth. People in her hometown in eastern Shandong only knew that her sister had moved with her second uncle's family, but they didn't know where they moved to. Suddenly, she realized that it was no wonder that the letters that Lin's father and mother sent to their hometown basically fell into the sea.

"But you don't have to worry. Later I asked someone to find out and heard that your second uncle took your sister to Heilongjiang."

Fang Yan poured a cup of coffee for the two of them and said, "I have asked the comrades over there to help with the search. I think we will have news soon."

"That's great!" Lin Qingxia stood up suddenly, "I want to tell my father and mother this good news."

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."

Fang Yan dissuaded him, "Given your sister's current age, she should have been married. If she is married far away, it will probably take some time to investigate. Why not wait until we find out where your sister is and then give your parents a surprise?"

Lin Qingxia pursed her lips, her eyes flickering, "Ah, I was so anxious that I lost my mind, but you still thought it through."

Fang Yan raised his hand, motioning her to sit back down, and then asked, "When will Boss He and the others leave for Warner?"

"Just two days ago."

Lin Qingxia told He Guanchang, Mike and others the hotel and room phone number where they were staying.

Fangyan did as she said and called, but after calling for a long time, no one answered. It was obvious that Ho Kwun-chang and Cheng Long had not returned, so he had to leave a message at the hotel front desk, reminding them to call back as soon as possible after they returned.

Then, while waiting, he chatted face to face with Lin Qingxia about family matters, especially her childhood.

Over a few cups of coffee, Lin Qingxia gradually opened up, and finally, for some unknown reason, she opened up completely. "I only now understand that Eminem's advice to me not to act was for a reason. The art world is full of ups and downs, and the fate of a star is hard..."

"Then have you ever regretted it?"

"No regrets. If I hadn't chosen this path, how would I have the chance to trouble you to help me find my sister now?"

"Haha, that makes sense."

Fangyan casually asked her what other drama she had taken on after "Police Story".

Lin Qingxia said that Xu Ke would be starring in a new play soon, and she would have the honor to perform on the same stage with Cherie Chung and Sally Yeh.

Fang Yan smacked his lips and said, "Swordsman and Lady, sounds like a drama with a strong female lead."

"Director Xu said that he was influenced by your works Farewell My Concubine and Once Upon a Time in China. He plans to set the film in the context of the warlords' conflict during the Republic of China period and incorporate elements of Peking Opera into the film." Lin Qingxia briefly introduced the film. "I play the general's daughter in the film..."

"Very good. Your image is very suitable for playing this kind of heroine with great martial arts skills."

When Fang Yan thought of her "Invincible Oriental", the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"Stop making fun of me."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Lin Qingxia blushed and said embarrassedly that Shi Nansheng had accompanied her to try on several sets of makeup and costumes, but none of them satisfied Xu Ke, and the final makeup has not been decided yet. If she had not been an artist signed by Shi Nansheng, she would have been replaced by Xu Ke long ago.

Fangyan disagreed: "That's because they didn't discover the unique qualities in you."

Lin Qingxia met his gaze without any blasphemous intention, her heart pounding, and a hint of shame in her puzzled eyes.

"Try cutting your hair short." Fangyan looked at it carefully.

Lin Qingxia grabbed a lock of her long hair and asked, "Will it look good if I cut it short?"

"You are not just good-looking. Your uniqueness lies in the fact that you not only possess the charm and intelligence of a woman, but also in the fact that there is a unique heroic spirit between your brows." Fang Yan said, "Look at the British-style trousers you are wearing today. You look very dashing, heroic, neat and capable."

"Really?"

"Of course, didn't you appear with short hair and makeup in your debut film, Outside the Window?"

"From the movie so many years ago, you still remember what I looked like..."

Lin Qingxia stared blankly at the lock of hair between her fingers, her heart suddenly confused. She didn't dare to look him in the eyes and lowered her head to stir her hair.

"Jingle Bell!"

The sudden ringing of the phone once again disturbed her heart. She didn't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but Fangyan's attention was diverted.

Mike said on the other end of the phone: "Teacher Fang, just as you expected, Jiahe and Warner had an unpleasant discussion."

Fangyan was not surprised at all. Isn't that Warner's nature? It's like meddling, meddlesomeness, and an amateur leading professionals?

If it could be changed, perhaps the DC movie universe would have become like the Marvel Universe long ago!
But Warner just can't change this bad habit. Even though Jackie Chan once again proved his worth with "Police Stories" which grossed over 3000 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, Warner still ignored the demands of Golden Harvest and Jackie Chan. It did not learn from the failure of "Die Hard" and insisted on striving for the leading position in the "Die Hard" project. It did not care about the No. Asian film star, the great writer, or the Oscar-winning screenwriter.

"Teacher Fang, what should we do?"

Mike was also quite dissatisfied with Warner's arrogance.

Fang Yan said, "Let them continue talking there. You come back first and follow me to the other one."

Mike asked, "Is it Columbia?"

"Columbia is used as a backup." Fang Yan said, "Let's go meet Murdoch's Fox first." (End of this chapter)
