Exciting 1979!

Chapter 90 The Queen of Daughters says "I want" (1210)

Biaozi excitedly pried into Wei Ming's bed: "Brother Ming, you finally discovered my strengths!"

Wei Ming: “Not as long as me.”

Mei Wenhua: “Tsk!”

Biaozi added: "Brother Ming, tell me what to do, I will fully cooperate!"

Wei Ming suddenly sighed: "Forget it, I won't write it anymore."

"Ah, how can you not write?" Biaozi was anxious and Xiaomei was happy.

"You know, I don't know martial arts. If I want to write this novel well, I have to go to Shichahai to visit and learn. You came from there, so it's very suitable for you to take me in, but you don't want me to meet your Swallow. Forget it, I'd better not go and not write it." Wei Ming was about to get out of bed and go to the Great Hall.

"Oh, what do you think? You scared me. Just go ahead. Let's invite Coach Wu to dinner and let him explain Kung Fu to you. He knows real Kung Fu."

Wei Ming smiled: "Oh, you are not worried now?"

Biaozi also laughed: "What are you worried about now? Yanzi has gone to Hangzhou for the competition."

Wei Ming: Damn!

Then he asked, "Do all the outstanding students go there?"

"Not too many. Most of them are Li Lianjie and his classmates who are one year younger than us."

Wei Ming: Biao, I think you should be more worried~
"Brother Ming, what is the name of this martial arts novel you wrote?" he asked again.

Wei Ming: "Heroes have always emerged from youth."

Biaozi immediately cheered: "Good, good name, it's exactly the portrayal of my life!"

In 1983, Ms. Xia Meng's Blue Bird Film Company teamed up with the mainland's Emei Film Studio to shoot a martial arts co-production film, "Heroes Have Always Been Young", in which almost all the main creators were children.

In the year this movie was released, it surpassed other popular movies such as Li Lianjie's "Shaolin Kid", Xie Jin's "The Garland under the Mountain" and "Our Niu Baisui", becoming the movie with the most viewers and the most screenings in 84, and generated a profit of 230 million for Emei Film Studio!
After that, it was broadcast on movie channels many times. The two characters, Young Wife and Big Husband, were household names at the time. It was then adapted into a TV series, played by Wu Lei.

Wei Ming came up with this idea after meeting Xia Meng. Not only could he connect with leftist filmmakers, but he could also earn some royalties from Story Club. He had already started thinking about how to write this story.

Arriving at the Great Hall, Wei Ming first went to the filmmakers' side. He wanted to make himself known to the crowd first. It would be great if "Er Niu" and "The Story of Two Donkeys" could be picked up by a few big studios and put on the big screen.

The money for a script is much higher than publishing it in a magazine. If you cooperate with Hong Kong, the price will be even higher.

At this stage, there are no royalties, and it is indeed difficult to expect to buy a car and a house by writing books, so Wei Ming, who is determined to make progress, decided to try his hand in the film industry.

The first person he saw after he came in was Director Song Chong from the Shanghai Film Studio. He was Sister Xue's benefactor. Gong Xing's representative works "Good Things Come Hard" and "The Happy Bachelor" were all directed by him. Later, Director Song became the director of the Beijing Film Studio.

Director Song Chong has a movie that is almost known to everyone, called "Pili Babe".

Later, Sister Xue retired from the screen for many years, and the only time she made a comeback was when she starred in a movie directed by Song.

Because Wei Ming already knew Sun Daolin, he introduced Wei Ming to many people from the Shanghai Film Studio.

It's a pity that I didn't get to see Director Xie Jin. In the 1980s, when the fifth generation of directors was emerging, a third generation director was still able to repeatedly create film classics that are still not outdated even decades later. It's really impressive.

Wei Ming also saw Mr. Yi Shizhi from the People's Art Theatre. When Wei Ming entered the People's Art Theatre in his previous life, although the old man had basically retired to the second line, he had not left the stage.

It’s a pity that I didn’t see another pillar of the National Theatre of China, Mr. Lan Tianye, with whom Wei Ming has a deep connection.

Wei Ming went to Beijing for the second time in the 90s because of his support.

Because Wei Ming and Mr. Lan are from the same hometown, after "The Investiture of the Gods" was broadcast that year, the old man returned to his hometown.

Wei Ming attracted the attention of the old gentleman because he wrote an article "Taigong Returns Home", and thus got a chance to meet him. Coincidentally, the old gentleman also knew Wei Ming's grandfather Wei Senhao, so he brought him to the People's Art Theatre.

Now it is the second to last day of the National Congress of Writers and Artists. There are basically no issues that need to be discussed seriously. People just gather in groups of three or five to chat about daily life and discuss the next work.

But there was no one he knew here. Although he had been introduced to those from the Shanghai Film Studio, they spoke directly in Shanghainese and he couldn't understand them, so he naturally couldn't get a word in. If Sister Xue was here, he would be able to get a word in.

Just when Wei Ming was about to move his position, he saw a young man in military uniform. He looked about the same age as Wei Ming and stood in the corner, somewhat out of place.

Wei Ming immediately went over to get to know him.

"Comrade, may I ask what is your relationship with Master Hou Baolin?"

The young man immediately said, "That's our old man. I'm the third child of the Hou family. We look alike, right?"

Wei Ming: "They look alike, very alike. Nice to meet you."

My true feelings: Not as good as Hou Yaoming.

"What's your name?" Hou Yaowen did not dare to underestimate the person who could come in.

"Wei Ming, the novelist, somehow ended up in this room."

"My father is a performer of folk art, and he insisted that I come here to meet the uncles and grandpas in the movie industry, but he himself didn't come, so how could I meet them?"

A little transparent person and a semi-transparent person started chatting like this. They became friends now, and maybe they could become fat nephews in the future.

Although he has such a master-level father, Hou San did not inherit all of his father's true teachings. Now he is in the Railway Art Troupe. Although he and his master Qian'er have performed in some works together, their influence is average.

The performances tonight were mainly from the folk art world, including Peking Opera, Yue Opera, Jingyun Drum, Henan Zhuizi, Yanjing Qinshu, Modu Tanci, comedy, and crosstalk, etc. Later, as the audience chose, crosstalk was the only folk art that was still active. Hou San and Wei Ming were in the audience, but Wei Ming could feel his desire for the stage from his eyes.

But unfortunately, the person representing "crosstalk" on stage today is his father's disciple Kun Kun.

Watching Jiang Kun, who is two years younger than him, calmly performing programs such as "Taking Photos Like This", Hou San envied his sense of relaxation.

After Jiang Kun left the stage, Guan Xiaotong's grandfather came up. He was a master of Yanjing Qinshu and performed a piece of "Yang Bajie's Spring Outing". His voice was much more comfortable than Guan Xiaotong's.

Wei Ming glanced around and unfortunately didn't see the representative of Jingxi Drum, otherwise he might have seen Liu Shishi's grandfather.

The evening party ended with Mr. Ma Sanli’s “Starting at Ten O’clock”. He was the only one who could control an occasion of this level.

Unfortunately, I didn't see him before the meeting, and he ran away quickly after the meeting. Wei Ming was unable to take a photo with Mr. Ma and Master Hou, but he did get a photo with Master Hou, which was taken by Hou San.

When Master Hou heard that Wei Ming was from Peking University, he smiled and said, "Then we will meet again."

Wei Ming was still wondering, what’s the matter, are you going to hold a special performance at Peking University?
The next day, Wei Ming and Chen Jiangong took Master Liu's car to the Great Hall to attend the closing ceremony of the Fourth National Congress of Literature and Art. This event, which lasted for 18 days and had a far-reaching impact, came to an end.

Wei Ming could be said to have reaped a lot of rewards, having used up all the film. Now it would take a lot of time just to develop the photos.

"Master, you guys go back first, I'm going to walk around the city." Wei Ming had no plan to go back to Peking University with the car.

Master Liu said, "Where are you going? I'll take you there. It's just a matter of stepping on the accelerator."

Chen Jiangong also said: "Yes, I'm not in a hurry."

So Wei Ming asked Master Liu to take him to the Institute of Health.

"Why are you going there? Aren't you clean?" Master Liu said.

"Find a friend."

"Looking for a friend, don't you have a foreign friend?" Old Liu smirked. "Xiao Wei, tell me the truth, is that true?"

Wei Ming: "What do you mean, pregnancy or going abroad?"

Even a kind-hearted man like Chen Jiangong couldn't help but listen attentively. Is it so exciting?

"No, are you two really doing that?!" Old Liu was so excited that he almost rear-ended the three-wheeled vehicle in front of him.

Wei Ming: "Is it possible? We are just ordinary friends who have met three times. These are all rumors."

"What kind of friend is this in the health center?"

"Just ordinary friends with some conflicts of interest." Wei Ming said righteously.

Today he came to deliver a tape to Zhu Lin without even saying hello, which gave her a huge surprise.

"What are these songs?"

"Let me sing you a song."

"Oh, you can sing English songs too?"

Wei Ming opened his voice directly: "When I was young I'd listen to the radio/ Waiting for my favorite songs..."

This song is nice and not too difficult to sing. Although it is not about love, the melody hit Zhu Lin immediately.

There were even little stars in her eyes when she looked at Wei Ming. How could there be such an outstanding boy in the world? She really wanted to raise one!
After Wei Ming finished singing, he explained the Chinese meaning to her. In fact, the song title "Yesterday Again" can summarize it well.

"Who sings this? Is it famous abroad?"

"Yes, it's very famous. It's called the Carpenters, a brother and sister band. The sister sings and the brother accompanies. This tape contains most of their songs from a few years ago. If you want more, I can help you find it."

"Yeah, I want it!"

Wei Ming: “Five dollars a plate.”

With just one sentence, the little stars in Sister Zhu Lin's eyes were extinguished.

In fact, Wei Ming is already very honest. As a middleman, he did not ask for any price difference and was also responsible for delivering the goods to the door.

He didn't want to send her off next time, so he said to Zhu Lin, "I don't think I'll be in the city very soon. You can also come to Peking University to find me."

"Yeah, sure. I haven't been to the Summer Palace in a long time."

Wei Ming waved his hand: "Let's go~"

This time he took the bus back to Peking University, and then saw Liu Rulong with his head down at the south gate, looking like he was worried about something.

"What are you doing, Aaron?"

Liu Rulong: "A Ming, something seems to have happened to my dad!"
