Even Xie Tieli was shocked and couldn't believe it.

He thought he was quite influential in the film industry, second only to the four handsome directors of Beijing Film Academy.

Adapting the works of any writer can make that writer famous all over the country and there will be no rejection at all!

But unexpectedly, Lin Zhengjun actually refused!

Shi Wenxin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Comrade Zhengjun, you don't know Director Xie Tieli's resume, right? How about I introduce him to you?"

Liang Xiaosheng was anxious, and said with a wink: "Comrade Zhengjun, you must seize the opportunity. As long as Director Xie adapts the work, you will be able to ascend to heaven in one step!"

He is also doing this for Lin Zhengjun's own good!

Big directors are often tyrants on the set with very bad tempers. He was afraid that Xie Tieli would get angry and leave in anger. Wouldn't Lin Zhengjun be at a loss?

Xie Tieli waved his hand to stop the two of them, and said with a friendly smile: "Comrade Zhengjun, do you think the fee is too little? I can increase it as appropriate. I really like this work!"

Lin Zhengjun shook his head and said, "You are not suitable to direct this movie!"

Deep down, Lin Zhengjun still hopes that Xie Jinlai will direct this movie and use the original cast!

For example, Cong Shan was only 82 years old when she played Li Xiuzhi in 20, while Liu Xiaoqing is 24 years old this year and she cannot act out that kind of youthful girlish feeling!

"Is there nothing to talk about? Comrade Zhengjun, I can let you follow the crew and even listen to your opinions and suggestions on directing!" Xie Tieli's tone sounded a little pleading.

Liang Xiaosheng couldn't believe it. It was the first time he saw Xie Tieli being so humble. He was a big shot who dared to slam the table in front of Director Wang!

"There's no need to talk about The Horse Herder..."

After Lin Zhengjun said this, Xie Tieli couldn't help but feel disappointed, his heart sank into the abyss, and he felt so upset!

Just when Xie Tieli was feeling desperate.

But Lin Zhengjun said calmly: "However, I have a novel that I just finished writing. You may be interested in it!"

"What? You wrote another one?" Liang Xiaosheng screamed in surprise!

Last month, "A Generation" was published in "October", and this month People's Literature published "The Shepherd". What the hell, he has written another one!

You old sow is giving birth to piglets, one after another!

Everyone was shocked and amazed by Lin Zhengjun's vigorous creativity!

But Xie Tieli said with a happy face: "Okay! Zhengjun, please take out the novel quickly and show it to me. I want to have a sneak peek!"

Cui Daoyi was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands. This, I got another masterpiece by Chu Kuangren? It came at the right time!

Tang Xiaofu rushed to the office and gave the manuscript of the novel to Xie Tieli.

"Under the Hawthorn Tree? Love?"

Xie Tieli took the manuscript and opened the first page, while Cui Daoyi, Liang Xiaosheng and Shi Wenxin all stood up and stood behind him, also showing surprise.

During that special decade, the path for literary creation was very narrow, and only works praising the workers, peasants and soldiers could survive.

Moreover, there must be "three highlights" and "three concentrations". Impurities must be eliminated from the writing. Positive characters must be flawless and even without emotions, while negative characters must be completely unscrupulous and devoid of humanity.

Most writers are not suited to this kind of writing.

Only Haoran stood out and was especially liked by the four evils.

His works such as "Sunny Days" and "Golden Avenue" are regarded as an excellent writing paradigm and are very popular. He is known as the only writer in the country in a special period.

Since the new era, although literary and artistic creation has been hot, most of them are scar literature, denouncing the four evils, and there are not many descriptions of love.

The male and female protagonists of "Lush Mountain Love" which will be released in 1980 fell in love, but they never even said "I love you" to each other from beginning to end.

Instead, they express their feelings by shouting “I love my motherland, I love the morning of my motherland”.

It also caused a national sensation because of the first on-screen kiss, but of course, there were many criticisms.

Seeing that it was a love story, they all became curious and started watching it attentively.

Soon, they were deeply attracted by the pure and beautiful love between Lao San and Jing Qiu in the novel.

in the novel.

Chen Shumin said: "When my brother was still able to walk, we went to No. 8 Middle School to see you and saw you playing volleyball with some little girls on the playground. We also saw you teaching students from the road outside the school. Later, when my brother was lying down, he asked me to come see you alone and tell him about you when I got back. He never let us tell you that he was in Huanghuai City, nor did he let us tell you that he had leukemia. He said, don't let her know, just let her live a carefree life."

"He instructed us not to disturb you, but he passed away in too much pain and for too long. He has been in his last days for several days. The hospital has stopped using medication and resuscitation, but he couldn't take his last breath and couldn't close his eyes..."

Seeing this, Shi Wenxin's eyes were already red and tears were wet in her eyes. There was an uncontrollable sadness that took control of her!

When he saw Jingqiu feeding Lao San with a spoonful of Lao Gandie canned yellow peaches in front of the bed, Lao San said, "So sweet, just like the day I met you." Even Liang Xiaosheng couldn't control himself and his eyes were wet.

When we saw the ending, Lao San closed his eyes and passed away. Jingqiu held Lao San's hand and shouted over and over again, "I am Jingqiu, I am Jingqiu." She thought about what Lao San said, that even if he had one foot in the grave, he would pull it back to see her when he heard Jingqiu's name.

Shi Wenxin's defenses were completely broken. She could no longer control her sadness and burst into tears!

Liu Xinwu was a rough man, but he also started crying.

This novel "Under the Hawthorn Tree" is like a heavy tear gas bomb, and the ending is like the fuse, which completely detonates this tear gas bomb. No one who has read the novel is spared.

It seemed as if there was a warm and slightly sour atmosphere all around.

Including Xie Tieli and Cui Daoyi, their noses felt sore, tears flowed uncontrollably, and they even sobbed softly!

Xie Tieli took out a small handkerchief to wipe away his tears, wiped off the shiny snot on the tip of his nose, calmed himself down, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I made you all laugh!"

Lin Zhengjun laughed and said, "Haha, what's so funny about this? It just shows that Director Xie has strong empathy and delicate emotions, which are essential qualities for artists!"

"Comrade Zhengjun, your novel is so touching. It is a masterpiece. No, it should be called a masterpiece!"

Xie Tieli immediately made the decision: "You must let me adapt and film it. The conditions are the same as the previous adaptation of "The Shepherd". Is that okay?"

"Of course no problem. If I didn't want you to adapt it, I wouldn't have shown it to you," Lin Zhengjun said with a smile.

The whole audience was shocked and everyone couldn't believe it!

When everyone saw Lin Zhengjun take out "Under the Hawthorn Tree", they were all nervous.

It is not easy to create literature. Many writers are lucky if they can publish one out of ten articles.

A typical example is Professor Yu Hua, who first submitted her manuscripts to the prestigious People's Literature;

If it is not accepted, I will submit it to the lower-level journals such as Harvest and Yenching Literature and Art.

If it is still not accepted, submit it to other provincial literary magazines such as Feitian and Yalujiang;

In the end, it is often submitted to internal publications at the municipal, regional, county level, and even at schools and factories, and the bottom line is lowered all the way.

Well, it should be said that he has no bottom line. After all, in order to publish the novel, he is willing to change the plot to make it bright from beginning to end.

In everyone's opinion, Lin Zhengjun was not so lucky that both of his novels were picked up by directors. Who would have thought that Xie Tieli not only picked them up, but also gave them extremely high praise!

From the looks of it, the artistic level of this novel is no less than that of "The Horse Shepherd"!
