Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Of course, it’s not about Kristoff purchasing the film and television adaptation rights of this novel, but how to make it into Chinese-style science fiction.

Du Hui, who usually talks the least among the four, was uncharacteristically talkative today.

"If this novel is adapted into a science fiction film, whether it is Dongqing or someone else, it should follow one principle - to make the film a collectivist romance rather than a Hollywood-style individual heroism."

"But, Du Hui, you are wrong." Liu Yimin took over: "This novel is actually a reflection and questioning of collectivism - in the plot of the novel, 5,000 people from the coalition government were executed by a mob. This is Reflections on collectivism.

Du Hui was silent for a moment, put down his chopsticks and suddenly looked at Yu Dongqing: "Dongqing, you are the author, what do you think of this issue?"

I?

It's difficult.

In Liu's science fiction novels, there is originally this contradiction. On the one hand, it is rationality, elites, and individuals, but on the other hand, it emphasizes order and collectiveness.

It’s really hard to answer.

Yu Dongqing ate the fish slowly, thought for a moment and said, "What Du Hui said makes sense. If it is really adapted, it can only be adapted in that direction."

"Wouldn't this deviate from the spirit of the original work?!" Liu Yimin retorted.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing!" Zhang Yang interrupted at this time.

"It's so easy to adapt a science fiction novel? So what if you adapt it? Every year, without technology, you still can't make it!"

"Hey, that's wrong. It's not that movie "Yanjing Fortress" that I heard was good." Liu Yimin suddenly liked to argue.

"I bet it's a bad movie!"

Time is fast approaching the end of the year, and the popularity of the novel "The Wandering Earth" has gradually faded, but another domestic science fiction blockbuster "Yanjing Fortress" has become popular.

A huge investment of 500 million

Hollywood professional team produces special effects.

Wu Han, the most popular traffic boy in China, plays the male lead

These have become gimmicks for publicity operations.

Similarly, another Hollywood blockbuster "The Road Warrior" was also released during the Spring Festival. For a while, there was a debate on the Internet about which of the two films was better.

Of course Yu Dongqing didn't care about this. The New Year was coming soon and he had to prepare to return to his hometown.

Last year I celebrated the New Year in Yanjing, and I will definitely go back this year.

As we get older, my parents are not as strong as before, and they are unwilling to move to Yanjing, so it is very important to visit them during the New Year.

Back home, Meili and Yu Tongtong didn't have much to do, but Yu Dongqing was quite busy, mainly drinking with a group of brothers from the same family.

I was drunk every day, and Mingmei felt distressed and helpless.

Alas, a year's worth of wine has been consumed in just these few days.

That afternoon, Yu Dongqing went to Party Secretary Yu Huaqing's house to finish drinking and came back drunk. As soon as she entered the small courtyard, she saw her daughter standing under the jujube tree in the corner of the courtyard, holding a mobile phone and not knowing who to call.

"No! Watch "The Road Warrior" first!"

"Okay. If you don't listen to me, be careful, I'll go back and beat you up!"

"Tongtong, who are you going to beat?!"

Yu Tongtong was surprised by her father's words. When she saw her father drunkenly entering the door, she quickly said to her mobile phone: "Stop talking, my father is back."

Then he hung up the phone, ran over with a smile and held his dad's arm.

"Dad, my classmate and I are playing around." Yu Tongtong replied and quickly changed the subject: "I see you drank too much again, be careful what my aunt says about you."

"There's nothing we can do. The people sitting here are all brothers. Can you not drink as one of us?" Yu Dongqing said.

"Since we are all our own, we shouldn't drink. Drinking will harm your body." Yu Tongtong was a little confused.

"It's better to hurt your body than your feelings. You're still young and don't understand this. Where is your aunt?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"I'm hugging Lele in the main room, Lele is dozing off."

"Then I won't go there, I'll take a nap, and you can bring me a cup of tea, make it stronger." After Yu Dongqing finished speaking, he walked towards his bedroom.

"OK."

Yu Tongtong hurried to the main room, told Meimei about the situation, and poured a cup of strong tea for her father. After watching his father drink it, she helped him take off his leather shoes and coat, covered him with a quilt, and then left quietly.

This time she walked to the jujube tree again and continued to talk on the phone.

She was calling Xia Yunxing.

It turned out that as soon as the winter vacation came, Xia Yunxing asked Yu Tongtong to watch two science fiction blockbusters during the Chinese New Year.

But there was a dispute over which one to watch first.

Yu Tongtong said that of course she would watch "The Road Warrior" first, it is a Hollywood blockbuster and Li Yunjie is also her idol.

However, Xia Yunxing insisted on watching "Yanjing Fortress" first to support domestic science fiction blockbusters.

Wow.

Are you so brave that you don't listen to me?

Yu Tongtong immediately threatened, and then there was a scene that Yu Dongqing heard.

"Xia Yunxing, do you listen to me or not?!" Yu Tongtong whispered.

"Okay, I'll listen. I'll accompany you to watch "The Road Warrior" first," Xia Yunxing compromised.

A smile suddenly appeared on Yu Tongtong's face: "That's pretty much it. Don't worry, I will accompany you to see "Yanjing Fortress". If we have time, how about we go skating in Houhai?"

"Okay. When will you come back? I can't wait."

"I told you, it's the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. I didn't come back until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. I'm warning you. You are not allowed to go to see it in advance, and you are not allowed to give me any spoilers!"

"Don't worry, I will wait for you until the end of the world!"

"Bah, bah, bah, when did you learn to be so stupid!"

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Yu Dongqing's family of four took the high-speed train back to Yanjing early in the morning. When they got home and put down their luggage, Yu Tongtong couldn't wait to say: "Dad, aunt, my classmate invited me to play."

"Don't want to have lunch?" Meiliang asked quickly.

"I'm not hungry, so I won't eat." Yu Tongtong said and walked out the door.

"Hey, are you going back to your grandma's house for dinner tonight?" Mingliang chased her out and shouted quickly.

"Know it"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person had already left the door and disappeared.

This girl.

Meili shook her head and returned to the living room.

Besides, when Yu Tongtong ran to the entrance of the alleyway, he saw a handsome boy wearing a down jacket and scarf standing at the door of the small shop opposite. It was Xia Yunxing.

The girl ran over.

"Tongtong, today is the most punctual time I've ever asked you out." Xia Yunxing smiled.

"Isn't it because I want to watch a movie? Otherwise, I have to make you wait for half an hour!" Yu Tongtong snorted.

"It's such a cold day, don't you feel sorry for me?" Xia Yunxing cried out in pain.

"I feel sorry for you? I still want to beat you! Are you afraid?" After saying that, Yu Tongtong habitually clenched her fists and shook them in front of the boy.

"Afraid, afraid." Xia Yunxing said he was afraid, but he had a smile on his face.

How can you look scared?

In fact, Yu Tongtong also knew.

He is a whole head taller than himself and is no longer his opponent.

Hey, I still miss that little boy who was shorter than me and liked to cry when he was beaten by me.

But the one in front of me is not bad. Although she is a bit mother-in-law, she is quite caring.

"Let's go quickly. The movie is about to start." Yu Tongtong urged.

"Wait a minute. I ordered two cups of milk tea. I'll go get them." After Xia Yunxing finished speaking, he ran towards the milk tea shop opposite.

More than two hours later, the two came out of the cinema together.
