1978 Synthetic Writers

Chapter 391: How can I allow others to snore beside my bed?

The noise in the factory director's office soon attracted a group of curious people from the main building who came to eavesdrop by leaning over the wall.

"what's the situation?"

"Who's in there?"

"Comrade Jiang Xian and Director Hu."

“Shhhhh, it’s coming out, it’s coming out.”

The sound insulation of houses these days is poor. If a couple wants to be intimate, they have to nail a quilt on the wall and put pillows and other things in the gap between the head of the bed and the wall to prevent creaking noises.

"Clang clang."

The door was suddenly opened and everyone retreated in panic, only Liang Xiaosheng went towards Jiang Xian.

"Editor-in-Chief Jiang, Editor-in-Chief Jiang, how are you?"

Jiang Xian glanced at him and said, "Go back, it's nothing."

"What do you mean nothing happened?" Liang Xiaosheng looked anxious.

He heard it clearly.

Jiang Xian wants to resign!
Liang Xiaosheng has also been working at Film Creation for many years. He has witnessed the earth-shaking changes in the magazine since Jiang Xian took over as deputy editor-in-chief. It can be said that the deputy editor-in-chief is the soul of the magazine.

Liang Xiaosheng also knew that with Jiang Xian's current status in the cultural circle, he really didn't care about the position of deputy editor-in-chief.

This position is too low for him.

Now that he has walked away, it is no loss to others, but it is a huge loss to Film Creation.

"Don't be angry. If there is anything, why don't you discuss it with the factory director?"

Jiang Xian shook his head. "I don't think there's much to say. It just so happens that I have a child now and my energy is limited. It's time to quit Film Creation."

Seeing that Jiang Xian looked determined to leave, Liang Xiaosheng didn't know what to say.

He stood there and sighed anxiously a few times, then finally looked towards the factory director's office with a complex expression of regret, grief and indignation on his face.

"Oh, it's so confusing, so confusing."

The Beijing Film Studio was very small, and Jiang Xian had a high status and a great reputation in the studio, so the news spread quickly.

In the Department of Literature, Luo Chenghan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news.

For him, he was a newcomer, but Jiang Xian had already secured a position in "Film Creation" and had a great reputation in the Beijing Film Studio.

Such a deputy position would easily undermine his main position.

Luo Chenghan always felt a little apprehensive about this.

Now that Jiang Xian has left the magazine happily, Luo Chenghan no longer has this worry. He has fewer obstacles in managing the literature department.

the other side.

In the Planning Department, Jiang Huaiyan was sitting at his desk reading a newspaper when Liang Xiaosheng suddenly knocked on the door.

"Director Jiang!"

"Lao Liang, you are so old, why are you still so impetuous?" Jiang Huaiyan joked.

"Director Jiang, you have to go and persuade our editor-in-chief, Editor-in-Chief Jiang."

"Jiang Xian?"

Jiang Huaiyan frowned and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know the exact details, I just know the general idea."

Liang Xiaosheng briefly recounted what he knew.

The more Jiang Huaiyan listened, the more his brows furrowed.

The area of ​​"Film Creation" is indeed a legacy issue.

When he was in charge of the Department of Literature, he could ignore "Film Creation" and let Jiang Xian do what he wanted.

Now that a new director has been appointed, things are no longer the same as before.

"No, we can't let Jiang Xian go like this." Jiang Huaiyan said thoughtfully.

His retirement means not only that "Film Creation" will be without Jiang Xian, but the entire Beijing Film Studio will be without such a person.

Apart from anything else, how popular are Jiang Xian’s scripts?
If the Beijing Film Studio breaks up with Jiang Xian because of this, then how can they ever have the chance to compete for his scripts in the future?

Thinking of this, Jiang Huaiyan no longer hesitated, closed the newspaper on the table, and drank the tea in the cup.

"Let's go to Jiang Xian's house."

Jiang Xian had just picked up his daughter.

Jiang Niannian is in a period of time when she likes to attack people, and she especially likes to grab Zhu Lin's hair. When Jiang Xian picks her up, she grabs Jiang Xian's face and bites it.

Jiang Xian certainly wouldn't be angry. Instead, his eyes were full of happiness. He understood that these were all expressions of love from the baby.

"Brother-in-law, how come your little Niannian is so good at pooping?" Zhu Hong put her hands on her waist, having just washed the urinal.

Before, she and Jiang Ke accepted benefits and agreed to help take care of the little emperor, but she never expected that washing a urinal would be so tiring!

Moreover, Jiang Ke was training in the "Dream of Red Mansions" training class and time was tight, so most of the burden fell on her as a college student.

Now Zhu Hong really felt like a university sacrifice.

I can only sigh with my head down:
"Alas, Xiao Nian Nian is cute, but she poops too much."

"Where are you going?"

Jiang Xian said, "In a few days, your sister will also go to participate in the performance of Dream of Red Mansions. Then Xiao Nian Nian will have to rely on you to take care of her."

"."

When Zhu Hong heard this, she felt dizzy.

Looking at the Longines watch on his wrist, he even wanted to take it off and return it to Jiang Xian.

"Comrade Jiang Xian."

The two were chatting when a shout came from outside the door.

Jiang Xian raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the voice, and the people coming were Jiang Huaiyan and Liang Xiaosheng.

"Hey, Director Jiang, why are you here?"

"I heard you were back from America, so I came to see you."

Jiang Huaiyan said this with a laugh, then looked up at Jiang Niannian, "Is this your daughter?"

"Correct."

"Oh, she's so beautiful, she looks just like her mother."

Jiang Huaiyan is also a daughter slave. When he saw Jiang Niannian, he couldn't help but think of their Jiang Shan when she was a child.

"You and Zhu Lin are both talented in literature and art. What direction do you plan to take your daughter in the future?"

"How old is he?" Jiang Xian smiled, "Let the child choose for himself when he grows up."

"Anyway, I just want our Jiang Shan to become a doctor." Jiang Huaiyan said.

"With your identity, status, and connections, you let Jiang Shan become a doctor? Isn't that a waste?"

"What's the waste? It's better to be a doctor."

Jiang Huaiyan is very open-minded. "To put it bluntly, the entertainment industry is just a big melting pot. It's too complicated. I don't want her to jump in."

Jiang Xian nodded as he listened.

Old Jiang still has a vicious look in his eyes.

Unfortunately, the daughter is a bit rebellious and still stepped into this circle. Then Wang Zhiwen and Gao Shuguang played even more wildly. They played mother and son with Jin Dong in the play and fell in love outside the play.

Jin Dong is such a scumbag. One moment he wants to be a father to Jiang Shan's daughter, and the next moment he wants to be a brother to her daughter.

"It's better not to enter this circle." Jiang Xian sighed.

"Yes, I also learned from our old factory director."

Jiang Huaiyan said, "Old Director Wang Yang has four children, none of whom work in the film industry. The eldest daughter wanted to apply to the Film Academy, but the old director refused to agree and threatened that he would contact them to prevent them from being admitted."

"The old director has a great vision," Jiang Xian said. Even after many years, everyone at the Beijing Film Studio respected Wang Yang as a filmmaker.

There is not a single bad word said about him.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Huaiyan got to the point.

"Comrade Jiang Xian, I have also heard about the situation at Film Creation. I don't understand or agree with either Lao Luo or Lao Hu on this matter."

After all, he is an old hand with rich work experience. He immediately brought Jiang Xian and himself to the same front.

"Director Jiang."

Jiang Xian interrupted him, "It's not about who is right or wrong in this matter. In the final analysis, we only need to solve one fundamental problem: can Film Creation be separated from the Department of Literature?
There are already many such cases in China, such as "October" and "Huacheng". These famous magazines were all independent from their original publishing houses.

Now that Film Creation is also taking this step, can it go out? This still depends on the studio's opinion. If the studio does not allow it to go out, then no matter how much you say to me, it will be useless.

So this is not me, Jiang Xian, being emotional, I am not acting on impulse, this is a systemic problem, and if it cannot be solved now, then I think it will be difficult for me to stay in Film Creation.”

Jiang Huaiyan listened quietly to Jiang Xian's words.

He originally thought that Jiang Xian had some quarrel with Hu Qiming, and was a little impulsive for a moment, thinking of coming over to calm him down before talking about other things.

However, this does not appear to be the case at the moment.

Jiang Xian's emotions didn't need to be comforted at all, and could even be said to be very stable.

And what he said went straight to the core of the problem.

The problem still lies in "Film Creation".

"I understand."

Jiang Huaiyan nodded, talked to Jiang Xian for a while, and then returned to the Beijing Film Studio.

He immediately went to find Hu Qiming, and Luo Chenghan happened to be there too. Jiang Huaiyan then told Hu Qiming and Luo Chenghan about the "Film Creation" matter.

Hu Qiming poured Jiang Huaiyan a glass of water.

"Lao Jiang, you are already in the planning department, so don't worry too much about the literature department, lest Lao Luo misunderstand you."

Jiang Huaiyan continued to say earnestly: "Director Hu, you can't let Jiang Xian leave. If Jiang Xian really leaves, it will be a great loss for our Beijing Film Studio."

Hu Qiming seemed a little angry and slammed the table.

"Old Jiang, what do you mean? What's wrong? Without Jiang Xian, our Beijing Film Studio can't continue to operate?"

"I did not mean that."

"Then don't say anything. Lao Luo is still here. Since he is the leader of the team, he should unite his colleagues to do a good job. Do you think Lao Luo will feel comfortable after hearing what you said?"

"Director Hu"

Jiang Huaiyan still had an unwilling look on his face. At this time, there was another knock on the door. Ling Zifeng, with white hair and beard, and his assistant Zhang Yimou entered the factory director's office together.

"Director Ling."

Facing Ling Zifeng, one of the "Four Marshals" of Beijing Film Studio, Hu Qiming was still very polite.

"Director Hu, I just heard from the crew that Comrade Jiang Xian resigned from the Literature Department? What happened?"

When Luo Chenghan heard this, he realized that even Ling Zifeng was going to plead for Jiang Xian.

Whoops.

Jiang Xian's position in the Beijing Film Studio is truly complex and deeply rooted.

The network of contacts extends from Jiang Huaiyan to Ling Zifeng!
The more Luo Chenghan thought about it, the better it was for Jiang Xian to leave.

With such a deputy by his side, which principal can sleep soundly?

How does that sentence go?

How can you allow others to snore and sleep next to your bed?

"I'm telling you, Director Hu, you must not let Jiang Xian go. He's a talented person! He can write novels, scripts, magazines, and movies.

And so many people in the literary world are friends with him. I may say this inappropriately, but wherever Jiang Xian is, the hearts of the authors are there too.”

After Ling Zifeng said this, Hu Qiming felt a little shaken again.

He knew Jiang Xian's ability, but he was feeling conflicted at the moment and couldn't bear to save his face.

"I'll think about it again."

Hu Qiming had been struggling for several days without coming to any conclusion, but instead he received a phone call.

The other party directly stated his identity:

"Hello, is this Hu Qiming from Beijing Film Studio? I'm Chen Huangmei."

"Minister Chen?"

Hu Qiming was surprised and said seriously, "Hello, Minister Chen, I am Hu Qiming."

"Old Hu, I heard that Jiang Xian is having a conflict with your Beijing Film Studio. What's going on?"

“It’s not a conflict”

Hu Qiming quickly told Chen Huangmei the whole story.

After listening to this, Chen Huangmei was silent for a while. "In the final analysis, he is working on this "Film Creation" and feels that there are too many restrictions from above. Well, Jiang Xian is a proud person. If you ask him to bear this humiliation, he will definitely not want to bear it."

"Minister Chen, I feel very embarrassed when he does this. Yes, I know that Jiang Xian holds an extraordinary position in the literary world." The crying child gets the milk, Hu Qiming complained aggrievedly.

"Old Hu, you are wrong from the very beginning."

Chen Huangmei interrupted his complaint, "Look at what you said. You are the director of the Beijing Film Studio, but in your mind, you don't regard Jiang Xian as a member of your Beijing Film Studio. Look at what you said. In your mouth, Jiang Xian is a complete outsider."

"Minister, I..."

"Well, you can just take Film Creation out and make it a separate department on the same level as the Department of Literature, and let Jiang Xian be the director. Wouldn't that solve the problem? Okay, let's do it this way."

Seeing that Chen Huangmei had directly decided on the plan, Hu Qiming didn't know what to say.

This person is also his immediate superior. Since the order has been given, he can only do as Chen Huangmei thinks.

Hu Qiming immediately called Luo Chenghan and explained the matter to him.

Luo Chenghan was immediately displeased when he heard this.

Extract from "Film Creation"?
This is simply cutting a piece of flesh from him alive!

"Director Hu, the editors of Film Creation are all editors of the Literature Department. How can this be taken out? I don't agree with it."

"You don't agree?"

Hu Qiming snorted coldly, "Okay, you said you can't take it out, and the higher-ups have issued an order, then fine, I'll just let Jiang Xian be the head of the literature department."

"."

Luo Chenghan remained silent.

"Go back immediately and ask the Department of Literature to prepare for the independence of "Film Creation". The higher-ups are paying attention to this matter, so you should do a good job," Hu Qiming instructed.

"I understand." Luo Chenghan agreed and walked out of the office in a daze, looking a little gloomy.

On the other side, Liang Xiaosheng rode his bicycle and rushed into Jiang Xian's yard.

"Editor-in-Chief Jiang, good news!"

"Lao Liang? Why are you here?"

"Oh, you don't even know."

As soon as he saw Jiang Xian, Liang Xiaosheng excitedly told him the decision.

However, unlike what he expected, Jiang Xian did not show much excitement on his face.

He just said "Oh" lightly.

"I agree with removing Film Creation from the Literature Department, but..."

He paused and looked at Liang Xiaosheng.

"But I won't go back to the Beijing Film Studio."
