Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

"Uh……"

Cui Daoyi's face froze, and he stuttered, "They usually give fifty yuan for a long story, and fifteen yuan for a short story."

"So little!" Lin Zhengjun frowned.

“They are having difficulties too.”

Cui Daoyi smiled bitterly: "Radio is not like publishing in magazines or publishing houses where you can sell your works. They all rely on government funding. The total funding for a program is not much, and we really can't afford the high prices of magazines."

This is the truth. Today's radio and television stations are tools for ideological propaganda. They are both red and professional. They cannot engage in capitalist practices and have no advertising revenue.

"Okay then." Lin Zhengjun nodded.

What he was considering was still not the remuneration, but the broadcasting effect of the radio station. By increasing the popularity of Lao Gandie, maybe he could open up another market in Liaoning Province?

With the publication of People's Literature in November, Under the Hawthorn Tree also spread rapidly.

You should know that "People's Literature" is the largest literary magazine in China and a top-notch magazine of pure literature with excellent works and a large number of readers.

Because of this, hundreds of thousands of readers saw "Under the Hawthorn Tree" signed by "Chu Kuangren" overnight.

It's like dropping a heavy tear gas bomb among the readers, with huge destructive power!

After reading them one by one, I shed tears, and the words of the third brother still echoed in my mind: "I can't wait for you for a year and a month, and I can't wait until you are twenty-five years old, but I will wait for you for a lifetime..."

There was no love story in the literary creation during that special decade. The positive characters were devoted to revolution and production, and they didn't even have any emotions, just like saints.

Those who wrote about love affairs were all handwritten and there was no chance of them being published publicly.

Even in the new era, some people would write about love, but they would only do so superficially and only regard love as a small spice.

But "Under the Hawthorn Tree" is all about love, and it is written in a pure, beautiful, passionate, sincere and moving way!

Lu Xun once said, "The so-called tragedy is to destroy beautiful things for people to see." In the readers' view, Chu Kuangren is well aware of this.

It was precisely because the love between Lao San and Jing Qiu was described so beautifully and touchingly that when Lao San died, the readers' defenses were broken and they were severely hurt by the tear gas!

Tears streaming down the face, tear marks all over the face!

I dare not say that the entire literary world was shocked, but I can definitely say that countless readers across the country were moved to tears by this story.

In fact, the male and female protagonists are suffering from terminal illnesses, which has become a cliché in later generations.

But now it’s so fresh, it’s simply the effect of a dimensionality reduction attack.

It was like a bolt of thunder, striking the hearts of all readers and making them tremble all over.

Different literature lovers from all over the country were passing this novel around, and each of them became obsessed and crazy about it, unable to extricate themselves.

Beijing Film Studio actor physical training room.

"Oh, the November issue of People's Literature has been published, and it contains the film we are going to shoot, Under the Hawthorn Tree." Fang Shu ran in waving a magazine.

Fang Shu is actually still a student at the Film Academy, but she has acted in works of the Beijing Film Studio and has been "reserved" by Wang Yang. She entered the Beijing Film Studio after graduation and therefore often stays there.

Among the young actors, only Liu Xiaoqing attended the Literature and Art Congress.

The actor recruitment issued by Beijing Film Studio only stated the requirements for appearance and temperament, and did not include a story outline, so no one knows the story outline yet.

"Come and have a look!" Li Xiuming, Zhang Jinling, Xiao Caiming and others all gathered together to watch.

After a while, little Cai Ming was drooling: "Teacher Lin did it on purpose. He wrote Lao Gandie canned food three times and made me hungry!"

"All you know is eating and romance." Zhang Jinling said with a smile.

Little Cai Ming curled his lips and said, "I'm only eighteen, I don't want to fall in love!"

Soon, little Cai Ming was the first to lose his guard: "Wow, why did that damn Lin Zhengjun write that the third brother died? It's so tragic! I will never fall in love again!"

"Oh, it's so touching and tragic. Teacher Lin is such a good writer." Zhang Jinling also wiped away her tears.

"This story is great, and this movie is bound to be a hit. I must be in it, even if it's just a supporting role!" Fang Shu said with a determined look.

Liu Xiaoqing suddenly felt a little worried. It’s over, it’s over. The competition is going to be fierce this time!

At noon, Lin Zhengjun came to the Beijing Film Studio to watch Tang Xiaofu writing the script for "The Shepherd".

Then a group of actresses came in, and Li Xiuming smiled and said, "Teacher Fang, will you participate in the casting of "Under the Hawthorn Tree"? "

"Yes, I, Tang Xiaofu, can do it all!"

"Choose me, choose me!" Li Xiuming said with a smile, "I am very interested in the actress Jingqiu. I will definitely play the role well!"

"Teacher Fang, I think I am more suitable!" Liu Xiaoqing said with a smile.

"Why are you suitable?"

Little Cai Ming said dissatisfiedly: "Teacher Fang, what do you think of me? I am young, they are all in their twenties, and I am only eighteen years old this year!"

She does have an advantage in age!

Lin Zhengjun looked at her carefully. She was thin and small, with drooping eyes. She looked a little sad, with a big nose. Her appearance...

Do you still want to play Jingqiu?

Will the third brother agree?

You are more suitable for performing sketches!

He smiled and said, "Everyone, please be patient. I will carefully consider your situations! But a movie is a collective creation. I can't make the decision alone. I have to look at the director's opinion!"

"Well, thank you, Teacher Fang. You are our partner of Beijing Film Studio. You have to give priority to the actors of Beijing Film Studio. As for the actors outside, let them wait!" Li Xiuming said to build a relationship.

"That's right, that's right. Good things should be kept within the family!" Everyone gathered around Lin Zhengjun and talked in unison.

Lin Zhengjun nodded: "By the way, do you have any photos? Many of the educated youth in our Hewan Brigade are your loyal audience. I want to take your autographed photos and give them as gifts!"

“Yes, yes, yes, there are a lot of photos!” Everyone ran back to the dormitory, brought a bunch of photos, and signed their names on them!

……

At the Bayi Theater, Gong Xue, who had just finished rehearsal, looked down at the People's Literature magazine in her hand.

She has signed up for the casting, but doesn't know what the story is like yet.

After reading it, Gong Xue's eyes turned red. She stared blankly at the gray sky outside the window, speechless for a long time.

The story is really good. If it is filmed, it will definitely blow up everyone's eyes, or even be earth-shattering. The problem is, I am just a small supporting actor. Can I get the role?

Oh, I feel a little greedy suddenly.

She is from Shanghai, and she always puts sugar in her cooking. She originally doesn’t like spicy food.

But the spicy canned fish described in "Under the Hawthorn Tree" is so delicious.

After get off work, she ran to the department store and asked, only to find out that canned spicy fish was not on the market at all.

……

Noon, National Academy of Medical Sciences, Institute for Biological and Pharmaceutical Control.

It was time for dinner, but Zhu Lin, the future Queen of the Kingdom of Daughters, was still reading People's Literature attentively, and even forgot to eat.

She had maintained the same posture for a long time but didn't feel tired at all.

This was the second time she had read this story, but she was still immersed in it. Her mood fluctuated with the joys and sorrows of Lao San and Jing Qiu, and she forgot everything around her.
