Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

Entering the restaurant and sitting down at the table covered with a snow-white tablecloth, Fu Qi took the menu and began to order:

"Three fish bones!"

“Steamed Grouper!”

"The master chef who made this dish, Fireplace Roast Duck, is said to have been invited from Quanjude, and the taste has been optimized and improved."

"Coconut steamed chicken, this was praised by the old American president."

He ordered dishes according to the standard of one dish per person, and there was even a bear paw dish. Well, it was allowed to hunt and eat bear paws at that time.

Soon, various dishes arrived, along with wine and Coca-Cola.

At that time, Coca-Cola was only allowed to be sold in foreign-related places. It was very high-end and you would never see it outside.

Liang Xiaosheng and Zhou Yangguang immediately started eating, after all, it was rare for them to have such high-end food.

"Oh, is this the Coke described in The Horse Herder? It's really interesting, the little bubbles burst in the mouth, as if giving a massage!"

Liang Xiaosheng was instantly conquered by the fat house happy water.

I secretly made up my mind that I must work hard to become someone who can drink Coca-Cola every day.

Zhou Yangguang was intoxicated and said with a smile: "Oh, this tastes better than the state-owned restaurant!"

After dinner, everyone returned to Beijing Film Studio.

Fu Qi and Shi Hui specially called Lin Zhengjun to their car, and Wang Yang sat in the passenger seat.

Zhou Yangguang and Liang Xiaosheng took another car with Jiang Huaiyan.

When Lin Zhengjun saw this situation, he knew that they wanted to discuss royalties.

He wanted to avoid unpleasantness between himself and Zhou Yangguang and Liang Xiaosheng due to unequal distribution of the spoils, so he only told Lin Zhengjun about the remuneration. Fu Qi had experienced many ups and downs, was well versed in human relations, and took everything into consideration.

Sure enough, Fu Qi quickly said, "Zhengjun, I am very satisfied with these two script ideas. I hope to start writing as soon as possible. What do you think about the remuneration?"

"You can give me any price you want. I won't bargain." Lin Zhengjun said.

"readily!"

Fu Qi smiled and said, "Then I'll give you 20,000 Hong Kong dollars for each one."

"Deal." Lin Zhengjun said immediately.

Wang Yang smiled and said, "This is not a low fee. It's equivalent to 8,000 yuan for a film. The remuneration from our Beijing Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio is not attractive to Zhengjun."

Lin Zhengjun said with a smile: "You and Shanghai Film Studio's royalties can also be increased as appropriate to catch up with the advanced ones!"

"You boy."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "However, if the copies of Under the Hawthorn Tree sell well, I will really raise the price for you!"

"Zhengjun, I can ask the Hong Kong company to wire the royalties to you immediately as an advance payment!" Fu Qi said with a smile.

Lin Zhengjun waved his hand and said, "Don't wire the money to me yet. Leave it in Hong Kong."

"why?"

"I am very interested in investing in stocks and silver futures. When the time comes, you will return to Hong Kong and buy the relevant stocks and futures contracts for me..."

If you invest all of your HK$200 in silver futures, you can conservatively earn to times the profit, which is HK$ million.

If this money remains in Hong Kong Island and is invested on behalf of Tang Xiaofu's parents, or if Tang Xiaofu obtains a Hong Kong permanent residence permit and sets up a Hong Kong-funded company, she can become an investor in Great Wall Films.

From then on, he went from being a worker to a capitalist!

After all, how much money did that Japanese monk spend on investing in "Shaolin Temple"!

But when Lin Zhengjun said this, Fu Qi and his wife and Wang Yang were stunned. They looked at Lin Zhengjun in disbelief and did not speak for several seconds.

This kid actually knows about stocks and futures?

I even want to invest.

"Zhengjun, are you interested after reading the news about the stock market and overseas futures in Hong Kong newspapers?" Shi Hui asked with a smile.

"That's right!"

Fu Qi looked worried and said, "Zhengjun, stock investment is very risky. During the Republic of China period, the Shanghai stock market experienced many stock market crashes. Some newspapers called it a financial storm."

"It's like an invisible sickle, madly harvesting the wealth of small and medium-sized shareholders. You'd better be careful!"

Shi Hui said: "As for futures, the risk is even greater because its margin is only one-tenth of the transaction amount."

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "I just have a preliminary idea at the moment, it's not certain yet, you don't have to worry about me."

"Okay!" Fu Qi smiled and didn't say much.

Of course, he did not approve of Lin Zhengjun's investment in stocks and futures, but he could also see that although Lin Zhengjun was steady, he was very confident in his bones, even a little stubborn, and would not turn back until he hit a wall.

But he also responded with understanding.

Young people are hot-tempered by nature. Besides, Lin Zhengjun is so talented that it is normal for him to be arrogant.

Only after you suffer a little loss and feel the pain will you know how deep the water is. It’s nothing to pay the tuition fee early.

……

When everyone returned to the Beijing Film Studio, Fu Qi and his wife and Wang Yang came again because they also had to participate in the activities of the National Congress of Writers and Artists.

Lin Zhengjun, Liang Xiaosheng and Zhou Yangguang came to the information room again.

Now that the story outline is done, the next step is to start writing!

Lin Zhengjun sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "On the way, Fu Qi and I have already agreed on the remuneration."

Zhou Yangguang asked excitedly: "How much?"

Liang Xiaosheng didn't ask, but just looked at him quietly.

This shows that he has a relatively stable personality.

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "A script costs 20,000 Hong Kong dollars."

Although he could hide it, he felt there was no need.

"So much! Tens of thousands. Can I become a millionaire by writing a script?" Zhou Yangguang paced excitedly, waving his arms and shouting.

Liang Xiaosheng also laughed and said, "There is indeed a future in literature!"

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "Taking into account the exchange rate, one is only about 8,000 to 9,000 yuan!"

"That's not a small amount!" Zhou Yangguang said.

Lin Zhengjun said, "Let's talk about the profit sharing. I'll give each of you 600 yuan. Do you think you can accept that?"

"Zhengjun, you've given me a lot."

Liang Xiaosheng rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "The script is only about 30,000 to 40,000 words, and you're charging 20 yuan per thousand words, which is higher than Mr. Mao Dun."

Very good, this guy is content and not greedy. Good cattle and horses... Lin Zhengjun nodded secretly.

“Even though you only get one-tenth of the prize, the story idea is yours, and that’s what’s most important!”

Not to mention Zhou Yangguang, he didn't earn a penny before, and it was already very good for him to make a few hundred yuan by writing a script.

Lin Zhengjun said: "In addition, in addition to writing scripts, you can also write the story into a novel. The royalties will all belong to you. I don't want it..."

"Zhengjun, you are so generous..." Liang Xiaosheng said admiringly.

Zhou Yangguang frowned and said, "But where should we publish it? People's Literature, October, or even the newly established Contemporary magazine won't accept this kind of novel..."

"You should vote for Story Club!" Lin Zhengjun said with a smile.

"Oh, this is a good idea! We write this kind of popular novel to make money, not to leave a name in literary history..." Zhou Yangguang said with a smile.

During the special period, the magazine was renamed "Revolutionary Stories", and was changed back to its original name at the beginning of this year. It often publishes some rather bizarre manuscripts with a very large scale.

Everyone knows that literary magazines have a large circulation these days, but the circulation of popular literature magazines is even more terrifying. In the early 80s, the peak circulation of "Story Club" reached 600 million copies per month!

Well... I have to find a way to start a magazine and make money!

Liang Xiaosheng smiled and said, "When the time comes, I'll just come up with a pen name."

He still had some ideas about traditional literature, and of course, he finally made achievements and became a leader in educated youth literature.

Although both educated youth literature and scar literature write about educated youth, their emotional tones are different.

His novels are full of passion for fighting against heaven and earth. The educated youth are united and friendly, living in harmony with the villagers. Everyone works together to fight against wolves and snowstorms in the Great Northern Wilderness, reclaiming fertile land and obtaining a bumper harvest. The characters also gain experience and grow...

Alas, Lin Zhengjun suddenly remembered "Ghost Blows Out the Light". "The Yellow Skin Grave" takes place during the time when Liang Xiaosheng was sent to work in the Northeast. It seems that Liang Xiaosheng can handle it.

After the payment was agreed, Lin Zhengjun continued, "Now there are two scripts. We need to divide the work. Which one do you want to write?"
