Back to 80: My Literary Life

When Fang Minghua heard a knock on the door and opened the door and saw it was him, he was a little surprised.

Feng Xiaogang held a briefcase in his nest and said with a smile on his face: "Chairman Fang, congratulations."

"Director Feng, what do you congratulate me on?"

"The third World Chinese Literature Award selection event has come to a successful conclusion. Its influence is growing both domestically and internationally, even surpassing the Mao Dun Award. This is all due to you, Chairman Fang."

This is flattery.

But he didn't reach out to hit the smiling person, let alone meeting each other several times and drinking together, so Fang Minghua let him in and poured him a cup of tea.

The two of them were sitting on the sofa, and Feng Xiaogang began to praise the award-winning judges for their discerning eyes and how excellent these five works were.

Seeing the other party like this, Fang Minghua couldn't help but interrupt him: "Director Feng, which work have you seen?"

"This" Feng Xiaogang's expression suddenly felt a little awkward, and he said after a while: "I am watching Nadine Gordimer's "No One With Me"."

Only ghosts believe you!

The biggest writing technique of "No One Accompanying Me" is free association, and free association is a common form of expression in the stream of consciousness technique. It is a bit difficult to read. Would you read such a novel? !

However, Fang Minghua did not expose him on the spot. He just smiled and changed the subject: "Director Feng, you came to me tonight not just to talk about the award ceremony."

"Chairman Fang, there is indeed something else." Feng Xiaogang said, "You went abroad and met Wang Shuo in Los Angeles, right?"

"Yes, he called you?"

"Yes, he talked about the script and asked Shengshi Film and Television to invest in the filming. Today I brought the script." After speaking, he took out a stack of manuscripts from his briefcase and handed it to Fang Minghua.

He was stunned when he saw the title of the script.

"Sweet Dreams for You"?

Why isn't it "Party A and Party B"? !

Damn it!

However, after carefully reading a few pages of the script, I felt relieved that it was the New Year's film "Party A and Party B"!

"Director Feng, let me make a suggestion." Fang Minghua glanced at the script and looked at him.

"Chairman Fang, if you have any opinions, feel free to raise them!"

"I think you should change the name of your script. You and the name have no characteristics. How about changing it to "Party A and Party B"? Your script is all about signing a contract to realize your dream, so it must be two parties: Party A Party B."

Feng Xiaogang's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he immediately raised his thumbs up: "Chairman Fang, you are indeed a great writer, the best screenwriter in the country. Well done, well done!"

Fang Minghua felt goosebumps all over his body when he heard it?

"That's it, Director Feng. I'll take the script back and let my wife take a look at it. She will contact you about how to film and invest in it, how about it?" Fang Minghua finally said.

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for news from Mr. Song." Feng Xiaogang said quickly.

After the matter was finished, Fang Minghua thought Feng Xiaogang would leave. Unexpectedly, he did not leave but looked at Fang Minghua: "Chairman Fang, I have something else I want to discuss with you."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"This script was a collaboration between Wang Shuo and I. Can we not write Wang Shuo's name when signing the movie in the future? And don't say it is adapted from Wang Shuo's novel," Feng Xiaogang said.

"Why?"

"Look at the current situation in China. The literary and art circles are increasingly criticizing Wang Shuo, forcing him to go abroad to hide from the limelight. If this movie has Wang Shuo's name on it, I'm worried that it won't pass the review and won't be released. What should I do?"

"Chairman Fang, I don't have any objections to Wang Shuo. Everything I do is for the sake of this movie."

When Feng Xiaogang said it to the end, he looked sincere.

Fang Minghua smiled and replied: "Director Feng, what you said makes sense, but isn't this unfair to Wang Shuo?"

"Well, in order for the film to start shooting and be released smoothly, I have to temporarily wrong him." Feng Xiaogang said with a sigh.

This is crazy

At least you were supported back then!

Fang Minghua remained calm and just said: "Well, I still have to write Wang Shuo's name. As for the issues you are worried about, Shengshi Film and Television will take care of it."

"Yes, yes." Feng Xiaogang immediately changed his tone: "Shengshi Film and Television is now the most famous film and television company in the country, plus your chairman is sitting in charge, these are nothing! I am worrying too much, worrying too much."

"Well, Director Feng, let's stop talking here. It's getting late. I want to go to bed early. I have to rush back to Xijing tomorrow." Fang Minghua said.

"Okay, okay, then I won't disturb your rest." Feng Xiaogang stood up immediately.

Fang Minghua walked him to the door of the room, but he stopped him: "Chairman Fang, please stay, stay."

Looking at Feng Xiaogang's retreating figure, Fang Minghua shook his head and closed the door.

Early the next morning, Fang Minghua flew back to Xijing alone. He was eager to return home.

Song Tangtang didn't come back at noon, and it wasn't until the evening that the whole family reunited for dinner. For this reason, the nanny Xiaoqin cooked two more dishes, which were Fang Minghua's favorite twice-cooked pork and Mapo tofu.

In the evening, after the children went back to their rooms to sleep, Fang Minghua and his wife also went to bed early. The couple had not been together for a long time, and naturally they were in a hot mood.

After the passion, the two hugged each other and talked about recent events.

Regarding the situation in Los Angeles, Fang Minghua had already told Song Tangtang on the phone that Song Tangtang was a little curious about the woman Liu Xiaoli and wanted to meet her when he went to the United States.

"Minghua, you said this little girl named Xixi is very beautiful, then is her mother Liu Xiaoli also very beautiful?"

Fang Minghua didn't expect Song Tangtang to ask this question suddenly, so he said casually: "Yes, she is very beautiful."

"How beautiful? Does it make you feel excited after seeing her?"

Hmm?

Fang Minghua looked at Song Tangtang in his arms and smiled: "What are you thinking about? I just said that Liu Xiaoli is beautiful, nothing else. Besides, I am very satisfied with you and Lili, how dare I think about others?"

"It's good to know, but men... Humph! I told Lili to let her squeeze you dry in the United States, and I will squeeze you dry in China, so that you can't find another woman!"

Oh my God

Fang Minghua was amused and confused.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Let me tell you about my experience in Yanjing. Feng Xiaogang came to see me." Fang Minghua changed the subject and told him in detail how Feng Xiaogang came to see him last night.

Song Tangtang listened carefully. When she heard that Feng Xiaogang did not allow Wang Shuo's name to be written on the film, she could not help but say, "It's too unkind of him to do this! If it were me, as an investor, it might make sense to say this, but you are at least Wang Shuo's friend, right? How dare you say this?!"

"Besides, Minghua, I'm also worried about Feng Xiaogang's own problems!"
