"You came home so late last night, and I smelled like alcohol. Did your family complain about you?"
On the way to Gu Long's home, Chu Huan asked Lin Qingxia who was sitting next to him.
(PS: The last chapter was blocked. After asking the editor, it seemed that there were banned words, so the names of these people had to be changed again!)
Lin Qingxia shook her head and said with a smile: "No, and my father was very happy to know that I met Gu Long, and he also said that he wanted me to get Gu Long's autograph for him."
Chu Huan smiled and said, "You are so beautiful, Gu Long will definitely be willing to give you an autograph!"
With long flowing hair, delicate facial features, a face without any flaws, and a simple plain dress, Lin Qingxia was incredibly beautiful when she was young.
Seeing Lin Qingxia like this, Chu Huan even had the idea that not letting Lin Qingxia star in movies such as "The Invincible East" would easily cause changes in her temperament and thus change her current appearance.
Hearing Chu Huan's compliment, Lin Qingxia blushed slightly and whispered: "That's so embarrassing!"
When Chu Huan heard what Lin Qingxia said, she couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Chu Huan's happy look, Lin Qingxia couldn't help her curiosity and asked: "Brother Huan, can I ask you a question?"
"what is the problem?"
"Why did you admit before that you are not the boss of the film company? You obviously are!"
Having said this, Lin Qingxia turned to look at Chu Huan next to her and asked naughtily: "You don't want to deliberately embarrass us, do you?"
Chu Huan laughed and said: "Then you really misunderstood me. I also figured it out at the beginning. Your suspicions are actually not unreasonable. Even now there is a boy about my age standing in front of me.
, said that he is the boss of a film company in Xiangjiang, I would think that the other party is bragging.
We were not familiar with each other at that time, so I never thought of explaining."
Lin Qingxia nodded, thinking about her state of mind at that time, it was indeed difficult to believe what Chu Huan said.
"I understand, but did you really tell Mr. Sima Ling that you returned to Jiahu Textile and became the second largest shareholder in less than a year?"
Chu Huan nodded and said: "That's true, but there are also some coincidences, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Lin Qingxia nodded: "So that's it!"
While the two were chatting, they had arrived at Gu Long's residence.
When Ye Qian saw them this time, he already had a familiar smile on his face.
"Mr. Chu is here, Yaohua has been waiting for you for a long time."
After finishing speaking, Chu Huan and Lin Qingxia were let in.
This time, Gu Long seemed normal. He was writing furiously in the open study room, apparently writing a novel.
"Ah Huan is here, please wait a moment. The magazine is pressing hard. If the manuscript is not submitted today, the editor will probably go crazy."
Gu Long has a problem similar to that of later Internet writers, that is, he has a strong procrastination disorder and will never open WPS and start coding until the end.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you write your own, I just want to take a look at your book collection, Brother Hua."
Gu Long laughed while writing a book: "What a collection of books, they are all given by friends, you can read them as you like!"
After that, the two stopped communicating. Gu Long was writing a book seriously. Lin Qingxia was called aside by Ye Chong, chatting about women. Ye Cong was not much older than Lin Qingxia, but they still had a lot in common.
topical.
Chu Huan boasted that he had read a lot of martial arts novels in another time and space, but when he saw a book called "The Heroes of the Desert" placed on Gu Long's bookshelf, he was still a little surprised, especially this one
The author of this novel was still Jin Yong.
This reminded Chu Huan of what happened when he was a child in his previous life. At that time, they didn't have any entertainment activities, and they didn't have smartphones or tablets.
For a boy like Chu Huan, his favorite entertainment activity is reading novels.
I have read the novels by Jin Liang Gu Wen and later Huang Yi and others.
While reading these novels, Chu Huan discovered something particularly interesting. That was that the pirates at that time saw Jin Yong's influence in the mainland and found a group of writers from nowhere.
Jin Yong has written many strange novels under his name.
Information was not developed at that time, and Chu Huan did not know whether these novels were written by Jin Yong, but he read them with great interest.
Now that I think about it, the quality of those novels is actually quite good.
It's a pity that those gunmen were born in the wrong era. If they were born a few years later, they might become top Internet writers.
Could it be that there is such a routine at this time, but Gu Long shouldn't do it?
With such doubts, Chu Huan opened the novel, and then said: Damn it!
Shit "The Legend of the Desert Heroes" is basically the content of "The Legend of the Heroes of the Desert".
But looking at it now, it has quite a flavor.
After watching for a while, Gu Long's voice suddenly sounded behind Chu Huan.
"Nowadays, Jin Yong's novels are banned in Taiwan. Especially this one, "The Heroes of the Desert", due to some indescribable reasons, it can only be called "The Heroes of the Desert" in Taiwan."
As for the indescribable reason mentioned by Gu Long, it is actually because of a poem: Genghis Khan, the genius of the generation, only knew how to bend his bow and shoot withers.
Just because of such a poem, this book was banned in Taiwan. Isn’t it weird?
In fact, there are many such weird things in Taiwan.
There is a writer named Chen Yingzhen in Taiwan. His home was confiscated due to some political reasons. Police officers found a bunch of Mark Twain novels from his home and asked: Isn’t Mark Twain the younger brother of MKS? How come you have his books?
!
By the same token, many of MKS Weber's original books also suffered.
Even the French writer Zola couldn't escape. He was obviously a leader in critical realist literature, but just because the pronunciation of this foreign writer's name was close to "Left", he was classified as a Z sect, and his books also suffered.
There are many such examples in Taiwan. Li Ao, who was blaming the sky and the earth, was also arrested for writing something.
If Gu Long hadn't written a martial arts novel, or a pure martial arts novel, he might have been arrested based on his experience.
Although Gu Long is now a scholar who relies on his pen for a living, in fact, before he wrote a book, Gu Long was also a member of the Wuhu Gang.
It's just that Gu Long is said to be invincible in the world, but is like an ant in the market - no chance!
After being severely punished for several times, Gu Long recognized the reality and resolutely left the club.
The associations in Taiwan are different from those in Hong Kong.
Young people who join clubs in Taiwan actually do so more because they want to join a club to keep each other warm. Because of Taiwan’s special environment, local aborigines and people from other provinces are having a lot of fun, so it’s impossible not to join a club.
"So that's it, what about this book?" Chu Huan said with a smile.
Since it is a banned book, then this book must be pirated?
Gu Long smiled nonchalantly: "It was given by a friend. It would be a pity to throw it away, so it has been kept here."
Chu Huan nodded, not worrying about this matter.
The two of them came to the living room and sat down. Gu Long said with a smile: "I thought you would tell me about the film copyright yesterday, but I didn't expect that you held it in until today!"
It was obvious that Gu Long was very smart as long as he didn't drink, and he had already guessed what Chu Huan was thinking.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Although I might get a more suitable price if I told Brother Hua yesterday, I don't like that. I can do it to business partners, but not to my friends."
"Haha!" When Gu Long heard what Chu Huan said, he immediately burst out laughing, with a truly happy smile: "I just like you like this, Ah Huan."
Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I prefer women!"
Gu Long was stunned for a moment, then laughed and cursed: "I also like women!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Chu Huan got down to business.
"Brother Hua, I really want the copyright of your novel and film. If you are willing to sell it, I will buy it at the market price. How about it?"
Gu Long glared and said dissatisfied: "Who are you looking down on? Since we are good friends, if I still charge you the market price, then what will happen to me? Let's do this, I will give you a 50% discount.
And if I write a new book in the future, how about you giving priority to the film rights?"
Chu Huan did not refuse such kindness and said with a smile: "If this is the case, I will be even happier."
Later, Chu Huan also proposed the time limit for purchasing the copyright. Gu Long was a sweet-tempered person and had no opinions on these matters at all. Anyway, it was whatever Chu Huan said and Gu Long agreed to.
This made Chu Huan feel a little embarrassed.
"Brother Hua, listen to my advice. From now on, you can write books honestly and don't think about going into business or anything like that. Otherwise, with your little wealth, you will be ruined sooner or later!"
Gu Long said proudly: "You think I am Sima Ling. If I have to do such a thankless thing, I might as well find a few friends and have a good drink for two days."
Speaking of drinking, Gu Long immediately became excited: "By the way, I drank so much last night, and I still feel a little uncomfortable. We have to get over it, otherwise the discomfort will not be gone."
As he spoke, Gu Long got up and went to get the wine, obviously he was well prepared.
Chu Huan quickly grabbed Gu Long's arm and said, "Don't worry, I still have two things I want to talk to you about!"
"Is there anything else?" Gu Long sat down again with some disappointment and asked tentatively: "Can't we talk after we finish drinking?"
Can I still chat with you after drinking?
Chu Huan did not answer Gu Long's question, but directly asked Gu Long: "Brother Hua, how is your relationship with the film arrangers in Taiwan?"
"I drank twice, but then I stopped drinking when I got bored!" Gu Long replied simply.
In other words, there was no friendship anymore. Chu Huan thought helplessly that since that was the case, there was no need to talk about the rest.
"The second thing is..." As he spoke, Chu Huan walked to Gu Long's bookshelf and took down a set of Gu Long's own novels...
After finishing the work, Gu Long immediately said excitedly: "Is there nothing else?"
Chu Huan nodded seriously and said: "No more."
"Haha, then wait for me. I just sent a few bottles of good wine this morning. The two of us will deal with them today."
After saying that, Gu Long stood up and walked to the storage room.
Chu Huan also stood up immediately and came to Lin Qingxia, who was chatting with Ye Jie, but at the same time looked at Chu Huan with some worry.
"Mrs. Xiong, we have other things to do, so we'll leave first. When Brother Hua comes out, you can tell him."
After saying that, regardless of whether Ye Jie agreed or not, he dragged Lin Qingxia and left Gu Long's home.
To describe it as running away is not an exaggeration.
Then when Gu Long came out excitedly with his own glass of wine, he saw that Chu Huan was no longer in the living room.
"Where's Ah Huan?"
Gu Long asked curiously.
Ye Qian glanced at Gu Long and said, "You think everyone is treating you the same. Mr. Chu drank so much wine yesterday, how dare you drink today!"
"This boy, do you want to play this trick with me?" Gu Long put the wine on the table helplessly, and then suddenly asked Ye Jie: "I remember yesterday that A Huan said that he was staying at the Grand Hotel, right?"
Ye Qian nodded and said: "It seems like this."
"Huh, if you run away, the monk can't escape from the temple. I don't believe that A Huan won't go back to the hotel."
.......
"Haha, I thought Brother Huan, you really wanted to continue drinking with Gu Long."
After running out of Gu Long's house, Chu Huan got in the car and asked Chen Hua to drive away quickly.
Lin Qingxia couldn't help laughing.
"I drank so much yesterday. If I drink again today, I should go to the hospital." Chu Huan smiled helplessly.
Lin Qingxia couldn't help laughing again.
After laughing, he felt that his hand was still being pulled by Chu Huan, his face immediately turned red, and he carefully broke away from Chu Huan's hand.
Lin Qingxia, who had just graduated from high school, although there were no boys in the school because she went to a girls' high school, there was a comprehensive high school next to their school, and there were many suitors of Lin Qingxia there.
But Lin Qingxia did not agree, so until now Lin Qingxia has not been held by any other boy except her own family.
This is the second time.
This made Lin Qingxia feel very strange.
Chu Huan didn't say anything, but took out a book from his arms and handed it to Lin Qingxia and said, "This is signed by Gu Long. Go back and give it to your father. He will be very happy."
Looking at the novel in Chu Huan's hand and listening to what Chu Huan said, Lin Qingxia felt warm in her heart.
A little girl's heart is easily broken by others. In fact, Lin Qingxia's heart is about love. Otherwise, the incident of "Shuang Qin and Yi Lin" that caused a sensation in Taiwan would not have happened.
"Okay, today's business is over. What's left is free time. Qingxia can use your role as a tour guide and take me around Taipei!"
Lin Qingxia nodded lightly.
Later, under the leadership of Lin Qingxia, Chu Huan completely relaxed and took a good stroll around Taipei of this era.
To be honest, there is not much to see. After all, Taipei in this period was considered a third-tier county town in later generations.
Although there were some ancient buildings and museums in Taipei at this time, Chu Huan was not very interested in these.
However, Chu Huan was not disappointed. In fact, having fun was not the main purpose. No matter who was following Lin Qingxia, who was less than twenty years old, his attention would not be focused on fun.
In the evening, Lin Qingxia took Chu Huan to the night market in Taipei. Here Lin Qingxia completely let go of her nature and took Chu Huan to taste all the delicious food here.
Pearl milk tea, fruit smoothie, roasted grass jelly, braised pork rice, crispy chicken steak, braised beef noodles.
However, for the sake of their own stomachs, both of them only tasted various delicacies.
Finally, Chu Huan sent Lin Qingxia home.
With this afternoon and night of companionship, the relationship between the two parties became closer.
"Why are you back so late?"
After seeing Lin Qingxia, Mother Lin once again preached dissatisfiedly.
"I went to the night market with Mr. Chu today, so I'm a little late!" Lin Qingxia said truthfully.
Lin Qingxia's sister Lin Lixia screamed at the side and said: "Sister, you went to the night market. You are so angry. Why didn't you take me with you?"
Father Lin said: "What are you thinking? Your sister went to work. Do you think she is going to play?"
Lin Lixia pouted and said, "But I really want to go!"
"Where are you going? It's such a chaotic place, you're not allowed to go there." Mother Lin's status in the Lin family is evident.
Hearing what her mother said, Lin Lixia pursed her lips and dared not say anything.
Then Mother Lin said to Lin Qingxia: "You too, Mr. Chu is not from Taiyuan, and he doesn't know the situation in Taiyuan. If you take him to the night market this evening, what if something goes wrong?"
As mentioned before, Taiwan is now very chaotic, with clubs running rampant, and the same goes for night markets. Fights happen almost every day.
Mother Lin knew very well what her daughter looked like. It would be troublesome if those short mules took notice of her.
Lin Qingxia approached Mother Lin and continued to coquettishly say: "It's okay, Mr. Chu is followed by several bodyguards, and we went to have something to eat and then came back."
"I'm afraid it will be too late if something happens!" Mother Lin said.
"Okay, isn't Qingxia back now? Just pay attention in the future!" Father Lin said to smooth things over.
"You are the only one who can speak!" Mother Lin glared at Father Lin.
Father Lin suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Lin Qingxia and Lin Lixia also laughed when they saw this, obviously they were used to this situation.
"By the way, Dad, I'm back with a gift for you!"
As she spoke, Lin Qingxia took out the martial arts novel signed by Gu Long from her bag and handed it to Dad Lin.
"Mr. Chu specially asked Gu Long to sign it for you!"
Father Lin quickly took the novel from Lin Qingxia's hand, as if he had found a treasure.
Seeing her husband looking so worthless, Mother Lin glared at him.
But then she looked at Lin Qingxia with some worry: "Qingxia, could your boss, could he..."
When she finished speaking, Mother Lin was embarrassed to speak.
Lin Qingxia looked at Mother Lin in confusion and asked, "What can it be?"
Lin Lixia shouted directly from the side: "Mom is worried that your boss is interested in you."
Seeing her mother's acquiescence, Lin Qingxia's face suddenly turned red and she said, "Mom, what are you thinking? Mr. Chu and I are just ordinary friends!"
Lin Lixia stood aside and said: "I said before that you two have an employment relationship!"
"Damn girl, I'll strangle you to death!" Lin Qingxia threw herself at Lin Lixia in anger.
The two sisters suddenly got into a fight, and Mother Lin looked worried when she saw this.
...
On the other side, Chu Huan returned to the hotel, and the front desk stopped Chu Huan.
"Mr. Chu, Mr. Gu Long came to see you tonight. After waiting for a while, he saw that you never came back. He changed back and asked you to go to the Eighth Nightclub to find him when you come back!"
Chu Huan was stunned for a moment: "Gu Long is here?"
"Yes!" the front desk said politely.
He even chased her to the hotel, but Chu Huan still smiled and said, "I understand."
After saying that, Chu Huan returned directly to his room. If he went to find Gu Long at this time, he would not be making himself uncomfortable.
As for Gu Long, he really wanted to block Chu Huan, but who was Gu Long? After waiting in the hotel for a while, he felt bored, and he didn't know when Chu Huan would come back, so he had no choice but to leave.
...
The next day!
Chu Huan got up in the morning and asked the front desk to bring two breakfasts. Before Chu Huan got up, Chen Hua and others had already eaten breakfast in batches.
Lin Qingxia basically came to the room with the hotel room attendant.
"You haven't had breakfast yet. I ordered one for you. It's your favorite fried dough sticks and soy milk."
Chu Huan smiled and said to Lin Qingxia.
Lin Qingxia looked at Chu Huan curiously and asked: "Brother Huan, how do you know that I like to eat soy milk and fried dough sticks?"
She didn't remember saying this to Chu Huan.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "When I saw you eating these things yesterday, you ate quite a lot, so I guessed it."
Lin Qingxia felt warm in her heart again.
But he still couldn't help but ask: "Then how did you know that I didn't have breakfast?"
After two days of contact with Chu Huan, Lin Qingxia had restored her original personality and no longer had so many fears when facing Chu Huan.
Chu Huan smiled and explained: "Looking at the way you are in a hurry, it doesn't look like you are eating breakfast. Of course, even if you eat it, it doesn't matter. Just treat it as extra preparation."
Lin Qingxia smiled and said: "Actually, I really didn't eat it!"
"Then let's go together!"
The two came to the dining table and started breakfast.
"Brother Huan, where should we go to play today?" Lin Qingxia asked Chu Huan while eating breakfast.
Chu Huan said: "I have something to do this morning. I can't go play anymore. I have to meet a client!"
Lin Qingxia asked casually: "What customer?"
"Qiong Yao!" After Chu Huan finished speaking, he picked up a stick of noodles for himself.
He is more accustomed to eating noodles in the morning.
ah!!!!!
Lin Qingxia, who was eating, suddenly let out a scream and looked at Chu Huan excitedly.
"Brother Huan, you said you wanted to see Ms. Qiong Yao?"
Seeing Lin Qingxia like this, Chu Huan remembered that in Taiwan in this era, there were very few girls who were not obsessed with Qiong Yao's novels.
"Yes, I need Ms. Qiong Yao's help with some things, so I'm going to visit her this morning."
Lin Qingxia raised her neck, looked at Chu Huan expectantly, and asked, "Brother Huan, can I follow you to see her?"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Of course, you forgot, you are now my tour guide!"
"Great!" Lin Qingxia clenched her fists and looked very excited.
Chu Huan smiled and said nothing.
After eating breakfast, the two got in the car and headed to Qiong Yao's company, Firebird Pictures.
This company was jointly founded by Qiong Yao and Ping Zintao, the president of Crown magazine.
Known as the ‘godmother of love’, Qiong Yao’s emotional experience is naturally extraordinary.
Qiong Yao's first novel "Outside the Window", according to rumors, is actually about Qiong Yao's first relationship experience.
After Qiong Yao moved to Taiwan from the mainland, she attended Taipei No. 2 Girls' High School for high school. Due to the high academic pressure, Qiong Yao often fell into a trance and turned pale.
She was also nicknamed Lin Daiyu by her classmates.
In addition, Qiong Yao, who was very sick, had not been cared for by his father since he was a child, and was left to grow up independently. As a result, his body and mind gradually matured prematurely.
In such an environment, Qiong Yao fell in love with her Chinese teacher, who was 25 years older than her at the time!
Even with the encouragement of her Chinese teacher, Qiong Yao failed the college entrance examination twice in a row, but the incident between her and her Chinese teacher spread in school.
Then, Qiong Yao's mother went to the school and made a fuss, causing a storm in the city. The final result was that the Chinese teacher was fired and sent to work in the countryside.
The heartbroken Qiong Yao almost committed suicide.
20-year-old Qiong Yao, forced to marry by her mother, married an English teacher who was 5 years older than herself...
The marriage between the two did not last long. As Qiong Yao wrote about her first love as "Outside the Window", her husband at the time was furious, and the two subsequently divorced.
In fact, at that time, Qiong Yao's husband also worked overseas for a period of time, and it was hard to say who was good and who was bad despite the feasting and entertainment.
At the same time, while Qiong Yao was writing articles for "Crown" magazine, he met Ping Zintao, the president of "Crown" magazine, and they hit it off immediately.
After Qiong Yao divorced her husband, their relationship became more tacit.
but.......
But, in fact, at this time Ping Zintao was a family man, with a wife and three children.
How was the relationship between the two parties... Anyway, in 1979, the two got married, and when Ping Zintao passed away, Qiong Yao staged a public opinion war with Ping Zintao's children.
, and Ping Zintao's first wife also wrote a book "The Past Is Gloomy".
It elaborates on the details of how Qiong Yao came to power.
As a result, in the era before Chu Huan was reborn, Qiong Yao rarely appeared in the public eye.
Let me tell you another little story. The movie adapted from Qiong Yao's "Outside the Window", starring Lin Qingxia and Qin Han, was not the first version.
In fact, in 1965, a movie had already been adapted.
At that time, Qiong Yao's mother was even furious after watching the movie.
Now that he was going to meet such a legendary figure with extremely strange relationship experiences, Chu Huan had no confidence at all.
But now there is no other way, we can only take it one step at a time.
Through the introduction from the front desk, Chu Huan and Lin Qingxia came to Qiong Yao's office.
The decoration was in a simple style, just like other literati, and the room was full of bookshelves. Then Chu Huan saw the godmother of love sitting there, wearing a pair of glasses, and didn't know what she was writing.
"Manager, Mr. Chu Huan, the chairman of Xiangjiang Black and White Image, is here!"
Qiong Yao then took off her glasses. When she saw the golden couple Chu Huan and Lin Qingxia standing there, her eyes immediately shined.
