Chapter 13 Renting
"Awen, I interviewed for a role in "Chu Liuxiang", but I had fifty lines." Chen Yulian said to Li Zhiwen proudly.
"Yo, Sister Lian is so amazing, there are fifty lines." Li Zhiwen said with a smile.
"Hate, let you make fun of me. I didn't have any lines in my previous roles. This is a great improvement." Chen Yulian said.
"Yes, yes, my wife is the most powerful." Li Zhiwen complimented.
Chen Yulian said arrogantly: "That's it."
"Will your roommate come back today? Why are you the only one?" Li Zhiwen asked.
"You also asked, it's all your fault. They all knew that we lived together and said that we were going home today and coming back tomorrow afternoon, so we won't disturb us." Chen Yulian said.
When Li Zhiwen heard this, he felt a little Hao Ran. It seemed that the rental plan must be put on the agenda.
Chen Yulian then saw the script on the table and said in surprise, "Is this the script of "Shanghai Bund"? You have already written it, so fast, so amazing, I'll take a look first." Then she picked up the script and read it.
......
"Xu Wenqiang is so pitiful. He actually died in Shanghai. Awen, can you modify the script?" Chen Yulian said in tears.
"Liangmei, this is just a script, not a real thing," Li Zhiwen comforted.
"You are talking about it. Putting aside these things, this script is really great. Awen, I think Uncle Tianlin must want to film it." Chen Yulian said.
"That's right, I don't even look at who wrote the book." Li Zhiwen boasted.
Then he said, "My sister Lian, can we move out?"
"Why, we didn't live well here, why did we move out?" Chen Yulian asked in confusion.
"Liangmei, don't you think it's a bit crowded? And your roommate is going to come back. What's the point of living together by the three of us?" Li Zhiwen asked back.
"That's what you said." Chen Yulian said.
Li Zhiwen continued: "It's okay to live in one person in your bedroom, but the space for two people is too small. And I think you can hear your screams next door."
Chen Yulian blushed and said, "Why are you so hooligan? But what you said is right. It's too crowded here. This way, if you find a house to move out by yourself, I won't be able to go there. The reporter photographed us living together, but I don't know how to write it. Besides, Ali also lives here, I moved out alone, and it's not good to leave her alone."
Li Zhiwen nodded, and he was right in his mind. The two lived together every day. How could Li Zhiwen experience the colorful world of Hong Kong? But he refused sternly: "How can I live alone? You are my wife, so I should make you live better."
Although Chen Yulian has been poor since childhood, she has backbone. She was with Chow Yun-fat in the original time and space and did not covet his money. Naturally, she was unwilling to live with her boyfriend, so An comforted Li Zhiwen for a long time and finally made him agree to live alone.
"Then you agreed, you have to come to see me from time to time." Li Zhiwen said.
Chen Yulian hurriedly agreed, as if she was afraid that he would go back on her word.
Since Chen Yulian's new melon was broken yesterday, Li Zhiwen did not do anything shameful, but just hugged her and went to bed early.
The next day, Chen Yulian had already gone to the set to work. Today is the opening ceremony of the crew of "Chu Liuxiang", and all staff must attend.
Li Zhiwen put on his clothes, went downstairs to buy a breakfast, sold a few newspapers at the newsstand, and sat on a stool and started reading.
The front page headline of the Oriental Daily published: "Li Zhiwen, the author of "The Legend of Qin", officially signed a contract with "Oriental Daily" yesterday. The manuscript fee is 500 thousand words, and he jointly created the "Oriental Women" magazine with the Oriental Daily. Li Zhiwen's second masterpiece "Love Traveling Through Time and Space" will be published in this magazine. Please stay tuned."
As soon as this news came out, the authors of "Oriental Daily" and "The Legend of Qin" immediately became the center of the public opinion storm.
Li Zhiwen could imagine the reactions of major newspapers. Previously, most of the media would scold Oriental Daily for doing things randomly. After all, Huang Yulang founded a new newspaper and gave Ni Kuang a 500-plus manuscript fee of 500 yuan, which made many colleagues criticize him.
What's more, Ni Kuang is a household writer in Xiangjiang, while Li Zhiwen is just a newcomer who has just published a book. In particular, Li Zhiwen promised to only provide exclusive articles to the Oriental Daily, which even cut off the opportunity for other newspapers. It would be strange if he didn't scold him madly.
However, this will not ruin Li Zhiwen's reputation, but will increase his value on the contrary. The Oriental Daily also has many benefits. Not only has it become the focus of public opinion, it can continue to increase newspaper sales, but it also officially launched new newspapers, which is a killing of multiple goals.
Putting down the Oriental Daily, Li Zhiwen picked up the Ming Pao and started reading it.
I saw a manuscript published by Ni Kuang in a relatively conspicuous position in the official publication.
"Hidden dirt, shame to return to the post"
It turned out that Ni Kuang saw that Li Zhiwen's manuscript remuneration was higher than his manuscript remuneration, so he ran to complain to Jin Yong and asked him to increase his manuscript fee. He was not agreed and wrote an article in anger.
This report specifically criticized Oriental Daily and Li Zhiwen, and even named Li Zhiwen's true identity. He was a young boy under 20 years old. At the end of the article, he even suggested that the Hong Kong government suspend the Oriental Daily for rectification.
Li Zhiwen was not surprised that Ni Kuang knew his identity, because the first person he submitted was Ming Pao.
However, when I saw this article, I also knew that Pan Yuesheng knew that he had fooled him.
Jin Yong's office in Ming Pao.
Editor-in-chief Pan Yuesheng said with a ugly expression: "Mr. Cha, this time it was my negligence. "Xuan Qin Ji" was originally submitted to Ming Pao first. I read the manuscript. There were too many vulgar scenes in it, so I gave him a manuscript of 50 thousand words. He disagreed. I asked him to come to the newspaper the next day to introduce it to you. As a result, he turned around and voted in the Oriental Daily. This time it was my fault."
"It doesn't matter." Jin Yong waved his hand and said, "The Oriental Daily is taking a vulgar route, while the Ming Pao is now much higher in style. I have read all these chapters of "The Legend of Qin", but it is indeed not suitable for our newspapers. Relying on novels to increase sales is only a temporary solution. In addition, if you have negative reports about "The Legend of Qin", don't publish them again. Be kind to others is kind to yourself."
Pan Yuesheng said yes.
After Li Zhiwen finished breakfast, he walked towards the radio.
Chen Yulian's dormitory is near the Dakeng Road. The rent here is cheap and there are low-rent apartments in the Hong Kong government, so most of them are the settlements of the lower-class people in Hong Kong. Therefore, TVB chose the dormitory here to ensure that artists have houses to live in, but the rent is not too expensive.
The radio channel is also called "Wutai Mountain", and all TV stations and radio stations in Hong Kong are gathered there. When the radio channel was originally planned, it was used to build high-end residential buildings and middle- and high-rise civil servant dormitories, so most of the people living nearby are either rich or noble.
Since all the TV and radio stations in Hong Kong are gathered here, many celebrities from the film and television industry also live here.
What's more, the Jiashi Building, originally No. 1A, Radio Road, was regarded as a TVB filming factory after Jiayi TV went bankrupt. Many modern dramas from Wireless and Shaw Pictures were filmed here. If Li Zhiwen filmed modern dramas in the future, the set would be very close to home, which would save a lot of time to get off work, and let alone the movie post-processing here.
Compared with the expensive rent for ordinary people, the rich potential network resources here can be ignored, for Li Zhiwen now.
