1980 My literary era

"You are always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted

I cry alone until dawn

You love that person without regrets

I know you're not that strong at all."

After New Year's Day, a soothing love song suddenly filled the streets of Yanjing, and could be heard at any time in barber shops, karaoke bars and other public places.

By the time he got a haircut, Lin Weimin had been brainwashed by this song. When he returned home, he found that even his daughter was humming this song.

"Who taught you this song?" Lin Weimin asked.

Xiaodoubao was teasing the turtle in the pond with a wooden stick, "I heard it, Dad, do I sing well?"

Lin Weimin didn't care whether Xiaodoubao was happy or not, he picked her up and kissed her, "Sounds good!"

Xiaodoubao wiped her face with her sleeve, and with a somewhat flattering smile on her face, she asked, "Dad, when are we going to build a roller skating rink?"

These days, the little girl has been thinking about her roller skating rink.

The ice rink is of course very good, but it can only be used in winter, which is not cost-effective. After some careful thinking, Xiaodou Bao decided that the roller skating rink is more practical.

"We can't rush this matter. Dad has to find a place."

"Dad, you have to build it bigger." Xiaodoubao warned.

"I know, I know."

While the father and daughter were talking, Tao Huimin suddenly came over, and the two immediately fell silent without saying a word.

They pretended to be nonchalant, but in Tao Huimin's eyes, they were sneaky.

Not bothering to pay attention to the unofficial father and daughter, Tao Huimin said: "Dudu is here, and he has brought a bottle of tiger bone wine. You can think of sending it to your brother-in-law later."

"knew."

Lin Weimin agreed.

Han Dingbang was left with a disability in one of his legs during his period. It would hurt when it was cloudy and rainy, and it could not be cured.

Tiger bone wine can dispel wind, remove dampness, and strengthen muscles and bones. Over the years, Lin Weimin often asked people to collect some of it to relieve his pain.

It's just that this thing is getting harder and harder to do now, and the price is naturally high.

Lin Weimin handed the bean buns to Tao Huimin and entered the living room of the main room. When Ma Dudu saw him, he stood up and said, "Teacher Lin."

"sit!"

The two sat down and chatted for a while, then Ma Dudu reported to Lin Weimin about the land acquisition and demolition work.

The demolition in Gaojing Hutong is mainly carried out by the government. With Lin Weimin as a big benefactor, compensation is not a problem and the progress is naturally smooth.

However, demolition has always been time-consuming and labor-intensive. Now that the compensation for the demolition has been almost discussed, the residents' where to stay after the demolition is still a problem. The municipal government is still coordinating. The actual demolition will not be until the spring of next year.

"Well, just push forward. Although I'm not in a hurry, you have to keep an eye on the city government and put some pressure on them. We spent real money." Lin Weimin said.

"Yes, I understand."

After talking about the business, Lin Weimin asked again: "If you have time, help me ask if there is a larger venue nearby that can be rented on a long-term basis."

"How big is the venue? What do you plan to use it for?"

"Xiao Doubao wants a roller skating rink. Children are very interested in it. I'm thinking of renting a venue to build one first. I guess she will get tired of it after a year of playing." Lin Weimin said.

"Okay, I'll ask around and find a suitable place to tell you later."

After chatting, Ma Dudu stood up and left.

Before going out, he saw Xiaodoubao kicking the jujube tree. She seemed to be trying to shake off the few remaining leaves on the tree.

Ma Dudu couldn't help but show a bit of envy in his eyes. This was the child who was standing at the finish line after he was born!

During this year's New Year's Day, the most popular song is "Heart Is Too Soft" and the most popular movie is "See You or Not Part".

In its first week of release, the film took in 14.2 million yuan at the box office. In the following two weeks, "See You or Separate" took another 22.5 million yuan and 16.4 million yuan respectively, bringing the cumulative box office to 53.1 million yuan.

The audience's evaluation of this movie is very good, but the evaluation of the industry is not high, not only for the movie, but also for the director Feng Xiaogang.

The article in "Popular Cinema" was indeed very influential. Although it made Feng Xiaogang famous, it also made him hated by people in the industry.

Now the movie is about to exceed 60 million, and Feng Xiaogang has two movies with a box office of 60 million. It is unreasonable not to be hated by others.

"See You or Die" is very popular, and the TV series "My College Time" produced by Wencheng is no less popular.

The ratings of this TV series have been rising since it was broadcast on CCTV on New Year's Day. The series has only 26 episodes. It just ended yesterday, and the ratings of the finale reached 31%.

The promotional focus of "My College Time" has always been the sequel to "Blooming Season". The actors are all from the original cast. The story background has been upgraded from high school to university, so it has naturally been popular among TV viewers.

But it is also true that the ratings are not as good as "Flower Season". Judging from the overall audience evaluation, the production level of the TV series is quite satisfactory, not particularly outstanding, but it has not made any big mistakes.

When "Flower Season" was produced, Wencheng Film and Television had just been established, and this project attracted Lin Weimin's attention. The entire company spent a lot of effort on this TV series.

Now Wencheng Film and Television is producing four or five dramas at the same time. The production level of "My College Time" is indeed not as good as "Flower Season and Rainy Season". This has always been a common problem with sequels.

Another important reason why "My College Time" is not as good as its predecessor is the decline in CCTV's overall ratings.

In fact, this is the trend in ratings not only for CCTV but also for TV stations across the country.

Before the reform and opening up, movies were the mainstream entertainment method in China.

In the 1980s, televisions became increasingly popular, and TV series became the public’s favorite form of entertainment.

In the 1990s, there were more and more various entertainment methods, people's spare time life became more and more enriched, and the dominance of television and movies in the entertainment field was gradually declining.

Don’t look at the popular TV series produced by Wencheng Film and Television, which often have ratings of 20, 30, 30, 40%, but throughout last year, among the TV series broadcast by CCTV, there were only a handful of works with ratings exceeding 10%. countable.

In comparison, "My College Time" has achieved such results, which can be considered excellent.

The most important thing is that this sequel is much more efficient in attracting money than "Flower Season". The purchase price of CCTV's premiere has increased to 250,000 yuan per episode compared with "Flower Season"'s 200,000 yuan. This is definitely the first time CCTV has ever purchased a drama. In the words of later generations, this is the level of a drama king.

In addition, during the production of "My College Time", many provincial TV stations and satellite TV stations in China came to purchase it.

The previous work "Flower Season" broke 50% of the ratings when it was broadcast on CCTV, and the ratings in various places also achieved good results. Now that the sequel is coming out, these TV stations are naturally flocking to it.

The competition among all parties has caused the copyright fee of "My College Time" to skyrocket.

After the first broadcast on CCTV, the copyright fees for the second round of broadcasts of the TV series have basically recovered, leaving only a small part of the balance outstanding.

36.8 million yuan.

The first and second rounds of copyright fees for "My College Time" hit an astonishing figure. Counting the continued income in the future, this TV series will bring at least more than 50 million yuan in revenue to Wencheng Film and Television.

Wencheng Film and Television won a big victory in the new year, and Haiyan walked with wind.

Jumping out of the Kunlun Hotel and taking charge of Wencheng Film and Television should be the most correct decision he made in his life. The correctness of this decision can even be compared with the "Plain Clothes Police" he wrote as a layman in more than a year. 》.

"Undercover Police" brought him fame, honor, and a certain amount of wealth.

But when he switched to Wencheng Film and Television, Haiyan made a real class jump.

He himself comes from a good, red family, but this thing doesn't help him that much when he becomes an adult.

After entering the police system, relying on his own ability and good dancing skills, he finally found his way into the position of manager of Kunlun Hotel. He welcomed and dropped off people every day, and the people he came into contact with were not low-level.

But this kind of position is like the counter ladies at those luxury goods counters. They sell luxury goods that cost tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. They face rich people with tens of millions or billions of dollars all day long. In such an environment, it is easy for them to have the illusion that they are one of them.

To put it bluntly, the core of this job is still service.

The resources at hand are extremely limited, and the salary is not out of the scope of the working class. Unless he is determined to do some gray activities, it is difficult for this position to bring him a lot of wealth and a high social status.

When Haiyan came to Wencheng Film and Television, he came here mainly for money.

After nearly two years of development, Wencheng Film and Television has grown bigger and bigger, and he has earned income far beyond what he originally imagined.

More importantly, the social resources and influence he has are completely different from when he worked at Kunlun Hotel.

When he was at the Kunlun Hotel, he had contact with many people and could ask for help when something happened, but at that time he had to ask for help.

Now at Wencheng Film and Television, the circle of people he has come into contact with has not improved much, and has even decreased a bit from the perspective of power. But now many times, he has become the one who is wanted.

This kind of role change is the biggest benefit that Wencheng Film and Television has given Haiyan.

Just like the party he organized years ago, he made a phone call and a large number of responders gathered. The main people at the party were all the people from Haima Studio.

I remember when Haima Studio was first established, it launched several satellites in the Chinese film and television industry and gained a great reputation.

Unfortunately, everyone was busy with their own affairs, and the once-popular Haima Studio became silent.

The TV series produced by Wencheng Film and Television are now popular. Last year's revenue reached 110 million. It is now one of the most powerful film and television companies in the country, complementing Wenhua Film and Television, which also belongs to the Chinese Literature Society.

Haiyan is now the person in charge of Wencheng, and he is considered a prominent figure in the domestic film and television circle, and even in the cultural circle. Everyone is proud to come to support him.

The members of Haima Studio have been together like this for several years, and everyone is very excited to see each other again.

Just as everyone was chatting, they realized that Wang Shuo, the soul figure, seemed to be missing.

Some people who were not well informed asked people, "Why didn't Mr. Shuo come?"

As soon as this question came out, many people's faces became strange.

A few people have their eyes on Feng Xiaogang. The little bastard who followed Wang Shuo and flattered him everywhere has now transformed into a big director. On the contrary, Shuo Ye, who was all-powerful back then, is no longer as powerful as he was back then.

The atmosphere at the party became awkward because of a question. Upon seeing this, Haiyan said openly: "Master Shuo has been in a bad mood recently and is having trouble."

He opened up the conversation with one sentence, and others no longer had any scruples.

Except for a few friends who were not in contact with each other, everyone knew about Feng Xiaogang's withdrawal from Good Dreams. Everyone murmured a few words in a low voice, and a few unaware people suddenly realized.

"Let's change the topic, let's change the subject," Haiyan said.

He asked everyone to change the topic, and everyone really changed the topic.

"Hey, have you heard? Master Shuo and his little honey are separated!"

There is always a lot of gossip at wine parties, especially when the person involved is someone everyone knows and is not around.

"Break up? Why did you break up? Isn't it true that the good relationship between the two of you is like mixing honey with oil?"

"Who knows? I've seen that girl before. She's just a gangster, following Master Shuo..."

Father, like son.

Regarding the matters between Shuo Ye and Xiao Mi, they, the bystanders, can see it most clearly.

A young and beautiful female college student has never lacked suitors around her, but she has fallen in love with an ordinary middle-aged man like Wang Shuo. What does she want?

Even before the food was served, everyone was already chatting enthusiastically.

Feng Xiaogang was sitting on the left side of Haiyan today. He did not participate in everyone's conversation. He took a sip of tea and glanced around the crowd.

He has participated in such scenes countless times over the years.

Only this time, he was sitting in a different seat!
