According to previous practice, the Supplement Department will send some representative letters from readers to Jiangshan every once in a while.
"Your office is very happy."
Today, Cai Wensheng personally brought a large package, but found three colleagues from the advertising planning department watching TV.
When Ding Lingling saw that it was her old leader, she quickly stood up and took the letter: "You haven't seen how hard we endured a while ago."
Jiang Zhuangzhuang embarrassedly turned down the TV sound a little: "It's almost time to get off work. Everyone needs to relax."
Jiang Shan weighed the pocket containing the letter: "It's really heavy. Don't you have a comrade in the supplement department who reads letters?"
Cai Wensheng pointed to his pocket: "These have been picked out, and some of them are sent to Li Translator."
"Okay, just leave it to me."
"Jiangshan," Cai Wensheng's real purpose for coming here today is: "I have an old friend who came from out of town a while ago, and he really wants to meet you."
Jiang Shan, who was about to leave after get off work, still sounded strange: "Your friend wants to see me? Why?"
Cai Wensheng smiled: "He is also a literature lover. After reading your work "Latent", he has many things he wants to ask you for advice..."
"I don't dare to ask for advice, but since I am your friend, I will accompany you to meet him."
"I knew you were interesting enough."
In the evening, in the traffic after get off work, Jiang Shan and Cai Wensheng were riding bicycles side by side.
"Is it far?" Jiangshan is very lazy in some aspects.
"Not far away, he lives in the guest house of the film studio." Cai Wensheng also remembered to bring two bottles of Happy Coke to his old friend.
"Oh?" Jiang Shan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you staying in the guest house of the film studio?"
"Pujiang Film Factory is said to be very interested in the script he sent," Cai Wensheng said while riding his bicycle: "But the plot is not exciting enough, so I asked him to live here and revise it together."
"It turns out it's not exciting enough," Jiang Shan thought hard about the movie he had made for two years.
Before I could figure it out, I heard Cai Wensheng's brakes.
squeak--
"We're here, it's the first room on the second floor."
The two of us parked our cars and went directly to the second floor.
After three knocks, the door opened.
A gay man in his thirties wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses exactly like Cai Wensheng.
"Lao Cai!"
"Lao Bi!"
The two hugged each other, patting and slapping each other, like long-lost brothers.
"By the way, Lao Bi," Cai Wensheng finally remembered Jiang Shan who was still standing at the door: "Let me introduce you. This is Comrade Jiang Shan whom I often mention."
"Oh, it turns out that Writer Jiang is so young," Lao Bi introduced himself: "My name is Bi Bicheng. I come from Jiujiang. I usually like to write something."
"What a coincidence," Jiang Shan couldn't help but laugh: "The three people in this room all like to write."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
After the three of them sat down, the thing they talked about the most was "Latent".
However, Jiang Shan was more interested in the other party's "Excitement", so he took the opportunity to ask: "What work did Teacher Bi bring this time?"
Bi Bicheng suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "It's just a novel describing...love."
"Oh? Love?"
Nowadays, when it comes to the word "love", everyone is somewhat shy.
However, Jiang Shan was not satisfied: "The film studio wants you to make the love novel more exciting?"
He remembered that this should be a plot that would only happen in two years.
"It's not that love is not exciting enough," Bi Bicheng quickly explained: "I want to add some overseas relationships... Hey, I will show you the revised script later and you will understand."
Before he finished speaking, the door of the room was knocked again.
After Bi Bicheng opened the door, he immediately said politely: "Director Huang, you are here."
At this time, a male director over fifty walked in with a smile.
Dressed in a refreshing white shirt and blue trousers, it coincides with the country.
"Hey, you have a guest here." Director Huang smiled and nodded to the stranger in the room.
"These two are editors of Oriental Metropolis Daily," Bi Bicheng introduced: "Screenwriter Cai and Editor Jiang are both my friends."
"Oh, hello!" Director Huang said politely, and then said: "Screenwriter Bi, I came here today to tell you some good news."
"What good news?"
"I found a very beautiful actress for our movie!"
"Have you found a heroine who meets the requirements so quickly?" Bi Bicheng was quite surprised.
The heroine setting for his drama is not easy to find.
"Around 30 years old, pretty, and stylish," Director Huang stated the requirements one by one: "It's best to look mixed-race."
After he described it like this, Jiang Shan and Cai Wensheng also became interested.
So, when Director Huang took out the actress's photo from his pocket, they also put their heads together.
"How is it?" Director Huang said proudly: "It's beautiful!"
"pretty."
"It's so beautiful."
The woman in the photo has peach blossom eyes, purple rose lips, and a straight nose that makes her pretty face look like an international one.
"She's quite fashionable," Jiang Shan had to admit. This beauty looked extremely aggressive: "Who is this actress?"
"Her name is Jiang Xun," said Director Huang, who tried every means to find this beauty. "She is a native of Pujiang."
Jiang Xun? Jiang Shan always felt like he had heard it somewhere, but he really couldn’t remember it for the moment.
So, he picked up the photo and looked at it carefully.
In the eyes of the other three, it was as if the young man in front of them was a young man with a great spirit of exploration of beauty.
Everyone laughed silently without interrupting him.
Bi Bicheng asked with concern: "What about the candidate for the male lead?"
Director Huang smiled and said: "Director Xu will come over in a while, you can ask him personally then."
"Director Xu will also come to my place?" Bi Bicheng was a little excited when he heard this.
"The factory leaders are now attaching great importance to our drama," Director Huang himself was very happy: "I'll come over soon and discuss the actors with everyone, and then we'll start the process."
Looking at the two people who were getting more and more excited as they chatted, Cai Wensheng couldn't help but glance at Jiang Shan several times.
Based on what he meant, could he make room for others?
But, how could Jiangshan be willing to give up?
This is news!
The most important thing is that Jiang Shan has already figured out who the beauty in the photo is.
He put the photo back in its place.
If I admit correctly, the movie written by Bi Bicheng should be a little-known movie.
Although the heroine is indeed very beautiful, there are really no decent works.
Finally, while waiting anxiously, the door was knocked again.
Jiang Shan and Cai Wensheng stood up at the same time and looked at the gray-haired director of Pujiang Film Studio in front of them.
They all looked respectful.
"Jiang Shan?" After hearing Jiang Shan's introduction, Director Xu suddenly frowned and thought: "Is it the Jiang Shan who wrote "Latent"?"
"He is the author of "Latent"," Bi Bicheng said with a smile: "You didn't expect that, right?"
"Oh," Factory Director Xu was really surprised: "The young people are so scary!"
Jiang Shan smiled sincerely: "You've given me the award."
"If it's good, it's good." The old director believed in his own vision: "I studied it repeatedly a while ago and wanted to adapt "Latent" into a movie."
"Like "Gunshots from the Secrecy Bureau"?" Jiang Shan smiled brightly.
"What? You also know this movie?" Director Xu indeed had this idea. As soon as the old comrade sat down, he immediately let out a circle of smoke.
Jiang Shan told the truth: "A while ago, I interviewed Director Chang Yan in Yanjing!"
"Oh~" The old factory manager nodded and couldn't help but glance at the young comrade: "We can have a good chat sometime."
Jiang Shan immediately handed over a business card: "I'm just waiting for your call."
After the pleasantries, everything got back to business.
Jiang Shan and Cai Wensheng sat silently and watched.
It turns out that this is how the starring role of a movie is decided.
Compared with the vigor of later generations, it is simply a little refreshing.
"This is a picture of the leading actor," Director Xu personally selected him.
Bi Bicheng took the photo and took a look, and was immediately stunned.
Director Huang also had the same expression as him.
"Besides," Director Xu didn't pay attention to their expressions at all: "There is no need to change the name of the movie, it will be called "Lushan Love"."
Hearing this, even Jiangshan was stunned.
In his memory, the heroine of "Lushan Love" should not be...
"Director," Director Huang couldn't bear it anymore: "The age difference between the male and female protagonists is too big."
Director Xu glanced at him, then sighed and said, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that Comrade Jiang Xun is not suitable? With her appearance, she can play the role of a social butterfly."
Director Huang didn't think so: "But I think her image is the most suitable."
"I have a suitable candidate here," Director Xu waved his hand slowly.
"who?"
"Zhang Yu."
"..."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, Jiang Shan and Cai Wensheng stood up and left.
Bi Bicheng sent the two of them all the way to the door of the guest house.
Jiang Shan looked at Bi Bicheng's disappointed look and asked with a smile: "Teacher Bi also wants Comrade Jiang Xun to be the heroine?"
The other party smiled sheepishly: "If I had such a beautiful heroine, my movie would have been half successful."
"Not necessarily," Jiang Shan disagreed: "I suggest you listen to the advice of the old factory director."
"Why?"
"After all, he is an old comrade. You can see..." He wanted to say: "I have seen many birds: my horizons must be different."
Cai Wensheng also nodded: "I have been making movies all my life, and you are where you are."
"That's true."
When Bi Bicheng returned to the room, Director Huang was still insisting on his point of view.
Director Xu shook his head: "If you insist on using Jiang Xun, then the choice of the male lead will also have to be changed..."
"The heroine can't change anyway."
"..."
On the second day, just when Director Huang thought he was the boss.
But he was called over by comrades from the Public Security Bureau.
"Jiang Shan, please read this news quickly,"
Editor Cai suddenly grabbed a press release and rushed into the advertising planning department.
Jiang Shan was so frightened that he quickly picked it up: "What happened?"
"This is the news that reporters got when they were stationed at the Public Security Bureau last night."
"A huge gold fraud case occurred in the Huangshan Hotel in our city. The main culprits Yu Jian and Jiang Xun were captured on the spot..."
After reading this, Jiang Shan slowly raised his head and looked at Cai Wensheng: "What do you mean, this Jiang Xun...could it be?"
"That's the beautiful lesbian yesterday," Cai Wensheng gave the other party a look of affirmation:
"I asked our reporter and they said that after this woman was arrested, she insisted that her leader was Director Huang."
Jiang Shan couldn't help but laugh: "What happened next?"
"Later, the police found Director Huang..."
"Hahaha,"
Later, this lesbian was sentenced to two years in prison. After she was released from prison, she immediately changed her name to Gong Xuehua.
At this moment, Jiang Shan had silently recorded this news for later use.
The movie "Romance on Lushan Mountain" will take over all the box office next year, so the news about it "Oriental Metropolis Daily" certainly cannot let go.
Just thinking about it is beautiful!
Suddenly, the phone on the desk rang.
"Oriental Metropolis Daily Advertising Planning Department," Jiang Shan said quickly: "Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Jiangshan."
"I am," Jiang Shan tried hard to recall the voice in the receiver: "Excuse me, who are you?"
"Comrade Xiao Jiang, I am Wang Xiang from Meiying Studio."
"Director Wang, why did you call me?"
"I have good news for you," director Wang Xiang's voice revealed uncontrollable joy: "All the comic strips from our factory were released yesterday."
"Really?" Jiang Shan immediately said happily: "This is indeed good news."
"I sent you a set today," Director Wang reminded repeatedly: "You should pay attention to check it in the past few days."
"Okay Director Wang," Jiang Shan thanked him quickly: "I didn't expect you would still remember me."
"When it comes to this matter, it is the attention you gave me." Director Wang did not forget Jiangshan: "If the sales are good in the future, you will be the first person to thank."
"Don't worry, after the movie from American Film Studio is released..."
There is only one month left before the long-awaited "June 1st" Film Festival.
After Jiang Shan hung up the phone with a smile, he couldn't help but think of his dolls.
The spring breeze of reform is blowing hard to every corner of the city.
Even if there are places that the blow didn't hit, don't be too anxious.
Because there's no point in being anxious.
When all the high-end shampoos from Red Star Daily Chemical Factory were sold out.
In the deepest part of the warehouse, boxes of cardboard boxes piled high were completely exposed to the eyes of Director Yang of the Light Industry Bureau.
At the same time, Deputy Director Dai of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau also showed a dumbfounded expression: "This... so many?"
Director Yang took a few steps closer to him: "No matter how I look at it, it's no worse than Pujiang Daily Chemical!"
"That is to say," Deputy Director Dai immediately asked Director Hong: "I'm talking to Director Hong, you said your factory can't just produce lip balm honestly? Why do you want to join in the fun?"
Director Hong shook his head helplessly: "This was the case at that time. At that time, the superiors encouraged this and even organized competitions..."
Why!
This is where Director Yang feels most helpless: "This was indeed the case at the beginning, but how could your daily chemical factory come to join in the fun?"
Deputy Bureau Dai also received a call from above: "Now everyone above is involved in this matter, you have to clear the inventory quickly!"
"So much, how can it be dissipated in a short period of time? We have also held activities, but the people still prefer the soap they are used to."
Director Yang also felt disgusted: "Yes, after all, there are 27 soap factories in the city, and every warehouse is full of these things."
