Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

Late at night, Zhu Lin's house.

After washing up, the three girls squeezed onto one bed, chattering away without any desire to sleep.

Zhu Lin asked: "Xiao Fu, where have you been living recently? I couldn't see you anywhere."

Tang Xiaofu said: "I'm staying at the Beijing Film Studio Guesthouse."

"How can you live there?" Zhu Lin asked in surprise.

She had always been interested in stage and film, but the Communications Corps Art Troupe was disbanded, and she had to rely on her mother's connections to get a job at a drug testing institute.

"write script."

Tang Xiaofu had nothing to hide from Zhu Lin, so she immediately told him everything: "Zhengjun and I have co-authored a novella titled "Under the Hawthorn Tree", which will be published in "People's Literature" soon. Xie Tieli from Beijing Film Studio likes it very much and wants to adapt it into a movie. I will be responsible for writing the script. We have already published "A Generation" and "The Shepherd"..."

"What? You are Crazy Man Chu?" Zhu Lin was stunned.

She knew that Tang Xiaofu had loved literature and art since she was a child, but there were too many people who liked literature and art these days, and only a few of them could become professional writers.

A typical example is Zhou Yangguang, who has been writing for several years but has not published a single article. In everyone's eyes, he is not doing his job properly!

"To be exact. Zheng Jun is the madman Chu."

Tang Xiaofu said proudly: "He conceived the story, and I wrote it. He checked and revised it in the end..."

“No wonder he was able to create “Xiaochou”!”

Zhu Lin stared at the ceiling with her beautiful eyes, immersed in shock, and did not speak for a long time.

After a while, Zhu Lin suddenly pinched Tang Xiaofu's chest and said angrily: "Such a big happy event, why did you hide it from me? Do you still regard me as a friend? Oh, you have grown up, older than me..."

"Female gangster, you!"

Tang Xiaofu pinched back and said aggrievedly: "Hey, my grandpa didn't let me say it. Before that, they didn't take off their hats and were afraid that Zhengjun and I would be implicated. It wasn't until Lin Zhengjun helped take off my grandpa and my parents' hats that they were not as nervous as before..."

"What? Lin Zhengjun helped your grandpa and parents take off their hats? He is so capable. My dad told me before that their problems are rather special and difficult to deal with..." Zhu Lin was shocked again.

"Well, he knows the director of the Department of Higher Education of the Ministry of Education..." Tang Xiaofu explained the whole story.

"He is truly amazing!" Zhu Lin was so shocked that she was speechless and began to look at Lin Zhengjun with a new respect.

It turned out that she was worried that Tang Xiaofu had found a violent man who only knew how to fight.

Now it seems……

She had begun to envy Tang Xiaofu.

Recently, someone introduced her to a guy, a worker in a state-owned enterprise with a good family background. She met him twice and thought he was a good match.

But now... I suddenly lose interest and don’t want to meet you again.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Lin suddenly asked, "By the way, Xiaofu, what kind of story is Under the Hawthorn Tree?"

"The magazine has returned the manuscript of the novel to me. You can take a look!" Tang Xiaofu got off the bed, took out a stack of manuscript paper from her backpack and handed it to Zhu Lin.

Zhu Lin put on a thin cotton jacket, sat up against the head of the bed, and looked carefully.

While watching, her eyes became wet several times.

After watching it, she burst into tears and said with a choked voice: "This is a great story. If it is put on the big screen, it will definitely be a hit all over the country..."

Tang Xiaofu said: "Xie Tieli of Beijing Film Studio has already started recruiting actors. Liu Xiaoqing, Chen Chong, Fang Shu have all sent their information, as well as Tang Guoqiang..."

Zhu Lin's interest suddenly perked up, and she asked, "Xiao Fu, do you think I have a chance?"

"Why don't you have a chance?"

Tang Xiaofu smiled and said, "Sister Zhu Lin, you are so beautiful and charming, you should act in movies. If you don't act in movies, it will be a huge loss to the audience!"

Zhou Dongxue said jokingly, "Yes, Zhengjun and Xiaofu are both qualified to participate in the casting. Let them open a big backdoor for you!"

"You can't use a backdoor. If I want to participate, I have to rely on my strength!"

Zhu Lin said with embarrassment, "But, I've been away from the stage for a few years. I still don't have the confidence to compete with Liu Xiaoqing and others. No, I should say I have no confidence at all."

"Sister Zhu Lin, don't worry for now. Discuss it with Zhengjun tomorrow morning. He has the most clever ideas!" Tang Xiaofu was a little sleepy and yawned.

"Okay, okay, let's go to bed first!"

Zhu Lin pulled the light cord and the room became dark.

Beside them, Tang Xiaofu and Zhou Dongxue fell asleep quickly.

But Zhu Lin was so excited that her whole body was hot and sweating. She lay on the bed like a pancake, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

……

The next morning, at Professor Zhou’s house.

The breakfast was very rich. It was bought from the college cafeteria, including pancakes, fried dough sticks, soy milk, porridge, eggs, and pickled vegetables from Liubiju. They were cut into thin strips and drizzled with sesame oil. They were very delicious.

The organizing committee of the National Congress of Writers and Artists issued the itinerary of activities in advance. Today's morning activity is a field trip to the Badaling Great Wall. It is optional to go, as Lin Zhengjun has no interest in it.

Therefore, after dinner, Lin Zhengjun was not in a hurry to return to Jingxi Hotel. He just played at Zhou's house and enjoyed the warmth of family love!

Professor Zhou and his wife truly love Lin Zhengjun, almost doting on him.

Last night, she even brought him water for washing his feet, treating him like her own grandson!

Grandpa and grandma passed away early, Lin Zhengjun missed them very much and also enjoyed this kind of intergenerational relationship...

Literary middle-aged Zhou Yangguang took out a stack of novel manuscripts and asked him for his opinions.

Lin Zhengjun sat on the sofa, sipped his tea, and read ten lines at a glance.

Damn!

What Zhou Yangguang writes is quite bold and advanced!

Martial arts, homicide and criminal investigation, even horror and magic, it is quite pornographic and very entertaining!

In his previous life, this guy became a screenwriter and director and also loved this tune. He was the key target of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and was put on record!

"How did you come up with these things?" Lin Zhengjun was a little curious.

"I am a rather vulgar person. I don't like reading scar literature. I think it is tearful, unpromising and boring. I just like reading Huanzhu Louzhu, Wang Dulu, handwritten copies, and the yellow and gray books for internal criticism..." Zhou Yangguang scratched his head embarrassedly.

"You wrote this kind of thing and wanted to publish it. It's good enough that we don't arrest you and execute you." Lin Zhengjun put down the manuscript and shook his head.

Zhao Xiangrong immediately complained: "I said no, you have to be profound, you have to criticize the past, you have to reflect, the literary world loves scar literature now, you have to have scars!"

"I don't have any scars. I can't have any scars! I just want to write popular and interesting things. Why can't I do that? Okay, please stop bothering me!"

Zhou Yangguang was impatient to listen to Zhao Xiangrong's nagging.

He looked at Lin Zhengjun with a bitter expression: "Then my literary dream will be shattered, right?"

"Not really."

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "Even a roll of toilet paper has its value. I think you can contribute to newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong. The working people in capitalist society have no ideas or culture, and their awareness is relatively low, so they like to read these vulgar things..."

"Really? But then we have to contact my eldest sister and brother-in-law. We don't know how to submit the article..." Zhou Yangguang scratched his head.

"Don't worry, there will be a way..."

As they were chatting, Tang Xiaofu and Zhu Lin walked in.

Zhou Shoucheng and Zhao Xiangrong were very happy to see Zhu Lin and said, "Linlin is here."

"Hello, Professor Zhou, hello, Teacher Zhao!" Zhu Lin greeted them with a smile, very gracefully.

Lin Zhengjun stood up and greeted with a smile: "Sister Zhu Lin, please sit down."

"Isn't Zhu Lin going to work today?"

Zhou Yangguang quickly put away the novel manuscript.

This thing can't be seen by girls, or they might think they are a bad person.

"I took half a day off!"

Zhu Lin has a straightforward personality. After sitting down, she said, "Zhengjun, I want to act in "Under the Hawthorn Tree". Do you think I can do it?"

Lin Zhengjun said: "This is a good thing. I think you have a very good appearance, figure and temperament. It would be a pity if you don't act in a movie!"

"But I am a little worried. I have not received any systematic training in acting from an academic school. I have only received guidance from some teachers in the art troupe, and I am not very professional."

Zhu Lin said with embarrassment: "Xiao Fu said that Liu Xiaoqing, Chen Chong and Fang Shu have all signed up to compete for the female lead. They both have excellent works. How can I compete with them?"
