Chapter 31 The Golden House

Tang Yushu had no other purpose in calling: "I want to hear your voice."

Lin Lang came out of the hotpot restaurant: "Then let me say a few words with you."

"Are you busy? - Chatting with Heaven and Man disappeared."

After Tang Yushu finished speaking dejectedly, Lin Lang remembered that he was chatting with Tang Yushu just now, and after being interrupted by the waiter's question, he joined the chat with the seniors and the others, and simply forgot about this guy . "Ah... I'm having dinner with my senior."

"Senior again!" Tang Yushu was not very happy: "What is his name? From now on, calling him by his name will suffice."

Lin Lang remembered the "childish love relationship" mentioned in the conversation just now, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't call him 'Senior'? But, don't you have your name?"

"Yes." Tang Yushu remembered: "Hey! Call me now."

"I'm outside, there are a lot of people."

"Okay. Then...then you go to eat quickly!" The boy's "nonsense" was measured.

Lin Lang recalled the weird atmosphere in that round, "It's okay, I'll talk to you—how's work going?"

"The notebook you gave has been photographed, and it will be online tonight! Great!"

Yeah, that's great.Although the "advertising script" does not overlap with the "novel writer" he dreamed of, but Lin Lang still gained a lot of sense of accomplishment to be able to participate in such a major brand public relations battle by taking a short errand.So I couldn't help but asked Tang Yushu: "How did such a big brand find you?"

No matter how stupid he was, he understood Lin Lang's subtext.Tang Yushu was so proud: "Don't underestimate our 'Dianjiang Media'. Now is not the era of 'home world', small bean sprouts can withstand big rocks! We have done a good job in planning, and the brand has a good reputation. I would like to find a small and new company like ours - the old company does not know how to adapt to the times, and the solutions it makes are not suitable for today."

"understood."

"Hey... After finishing the release and following up on the follow-up trivia, I can go back to school and stay with you. It can stay for a long time!" - so stupid.

Lin Lang then recalled the conflict at the dinner table just now: "Huh? Let me ask you: You are busy dating and distracted part of your attention from your company—will Chen Ni be unhappy because of this?"

"Unhappy..." Tang Yushu repeated these three words and tried to think, but after just over three seconds he retreated and chose the most direct way - "Hey, Chen Ni!"

There was a reply from the other end of the phone: "Huh?"

Can't wait for Lin Lang to react and stop, Tang Yushu has already asked in the other side - "I'm with Lin Lang, will you be unhappy?"

Lin Lang felt that he couldn't breathe.

Fortunately, Chen Ni should not have thought much about it, and only responded to Tang Yushu with a smile: "I am especially grateful that there is another person in this world who is willing to sacrifice his life and stand up to help me share the pain of 'taking care of idiots'."

Tang Yushu also smiled and scolded Chen Ni back, "Climb!", and concluded to Lin Lang on the phone: "He said no."

Lin Lang was amused by this passage for a long time before continuing to joke with Tang Yushu: "In ancient times, if you were an emperor, then I would be the face of the country that will never be remembered for thousands of years!"

"You can just laugh at me - anyway, I don't have any sense of righteousness! I'm worthless!" Tang Yushu accepted his "faintness" very frankly.Then he changed the subject again: "You mentioned 'hotpot', hey! Why don't we open a hotpot restaurant in the future?"

When did I say "hot pot"? —— Lin Lang was at a loss, but he didn't care about it, he just asked him along the topic: "I'm thinking wildly again——you can talk about it: how do you plan to open the store?"

"You don't have to do anything! When the time comes, you will sit upstairs in the office and write your novel, and I will take care of the shop! I will go upstairs to see you when I am tired, and come downstairs to see me when you are tired. Someday If we don’t want to do it, we’ll close the door and go out for a trip, and come back to continue driving when we’ve calmed down.” ——As Lin Lang expected, none of the sentences were logical.

"I have a bad temper and I'm not suitable for dealing with people. What if I offend all the guests?"

"If the guest wants to be tricky, just tell me, and I will scold him!"

Lin Lang laughed: "Is it possible to open a store so willfully?"

"Yes." Tang Yushu was inexplicably confident, as if he had implemented this absurd business logic to successfully open the store.

After a long time of gags, Tang Yushu finally remembered for Lin Lang: "Oh! Aren't you eating with someone?"

After being reminded, Lin Lang gasped—"Forget!"

When he hung up the phone and returned to the banquet, the conflict between the two guys had escalated into a quarrel—to the point where Lin Lang didn't know whether he should sit down or not.

I don't know how the quarrel started—when Lin Lang witnessed it, the senior was questioning the junior: "Didn't it be agreed at the beginning that we would continue to make "New Movie" well?"

The younger brother had an indifferent attitude, he didn't look at the senior, he just stared at the boiling pot: "The marriage vows say never to leave, but isn't the divorce rate also very high?"

"You... Forget it, let's stop arguing. If you don't want to do it, I won't force you to pull you—but don't persuade me to stop!"——The senior bowed his head first.

"Then you just do those useless work." ——But the junior is still reluctant to let go.

"I've said it all - stop judging what I do like that!"

"You really don't know good from bad. It's also my fault that I didn't know the sufferings of the world when I was young. If I had known you were so stubborn, I would never have done such stupid things with you."

Putting down the harsh words, the junior smashed his chopsticks, got up and left.

Ye Zi also followed the figure of his apprentice leaving, only to see Lin Lang who was standing awkwardly not far from the table.

Except for the sentence "I made you laugh", Ye Zi didn't want to speak any more, so Lin Lang didn't ask any more questions tactfully.

After finishing a hot pot meal with mixed flavors, the two kept silent and walked out of the shopping mall on the way back to school.

After a gust of evening wind, the senior seemed to have finished digesting his emotions.

"Lin Lang, do you know why I recruited you?"

"Ok?"

"I used to be only in charge of the design of "New Movie". Later, people in the editorial department gradually left, and newcomers could not be recruited. After staying in "New Movie" for so long, I have acquired some literary literacy... But it must not be as professional as it is. So I recruited you—do you know why I insist on "New Movie" so much?"

I'm also curious about your motivation for "spending such a large cost to build a coffin for "New Movie""-of course, it is impossible for Lin Lang to express these thoughts, he just throws out a "why", and waits quietly for Ye Zi to continue talking.

"The resources of the Film University... are the best life-saving straws that people from the bottom like me can grasp - before I came to the Film University, I knew nothing, had little money, and no vision - I am not complaining , It’s just an objective statement. In fact, I didn’t have any life plans until my senior year when I was about to graduate—to go to graduate school, and that was not my plan. Before that, I had been living by imitating the lives of most of my peers—— Because I don’t know how to live. When I was young, people in the mountain village told me: You want to go to a prestigious university. Later, when I read it, the news, my classmates, they all told me: undergraduates are everywhere, and they are worthless. Okay...then I Going to graduate school—see? I’ve been like a leaf all the way, being blown around.”

Lin Lang didn't know how to answer the question, so he just answered lightly: "Who isn't?"

Unexpectedly, Ye Zi turned her head and looked at Lin Lang: "You are not!"

"Eh?" Caught off guard.

"You, and Qin Qing—the junior just now, none of you. You are the kind of people who have great ideas and know what you want—I'm very envious."

"..." People like me deserve to be envied?

"After I was admitted as a graduate student in my senior year, I officially took over "New Movie". At that time, everyone else ran away—everyone was different from me, they were all excellent, and they got in touch with various social resources outside the school—only I was too useless. The only thing that can be done well is to keep doing "Xinying", and maintain good relations with professors, film university publishing house, etc. through editing the school magazine. The page is over, "New Movie" has changed from being glamorous to nothing in the end, and it is even facing suspension of publication."

Lin Lang can understand his feelings very well - after all, he is also half-assed.

"One day Qin Qing knocked on the door and came to him. At that time, he held the first "New Movie" that I made after I officially took over, and said to me: This design is awesome! The layout and cover are beautiful! He asked me Who is this designer? He said he wanted to join the editorial department to learn from this person. I was short of manpower at the time, so I took him—I admire him very much, and he dared to fight for what he wanted. When I worked with him, I In my senior year and my freshman year, I seemed to have found my meaning at that time—being admired by people I admire very much.”

Lin Lang can understand his feelings very well - being needed by the person he admires.

"I'm obsessed with that feeling. Gradually, we became more and more attached to him. We used to be the kind of... two-faced youth in the eyes of others. People only know that those who play music love to be rebellious, but they don't know that we play music. Designers also like to engage in rebellion. During the summer vacation after graduating from undergraduate and before graduate school, the school did not reserve a dormitory, so I could only rent a house outside. He knew that I was poor, so he told me to rent a house together to make "New Movie" We played crazy that summer vacation, drinking, graffiti - we both played what the legendary artists should do. Although I am older than him, he actually took me and took me to play Son, take me to see the world. When he takes me to play, he always spends a lot of money. At first I thought he was rich, but later I realized that he helped me share so much. In fact, he used his own fixed amount It’s just living expenses. Once I was too drunk and I asked him: Don’t you dislike me, a country bumpkin? He said he saw me as a potential stock, and he called me ‘Brother’, and he said, ‘Brother, you must be very good in the future. To curry favor with you, you must not forget to play with me in the future!'”

Lin Lang sighed: "It's so romantic."

"Romantic? Forget it, your writers' wording has always been weird." Ye Zi smiled and continued: "But I tried my best to build the best house within my ability, but he is not willing to live in it." .”

Your wording is not much better——Lin Lang smiled and asked Ye Zi: "Your metaphor...does it mean 'Golden House Cangjiao'?"

Ye Zi also laughed, and after laughing for a long time, he said with emotion: "Anyway... it's very uncomfortable. I feel that I owe him and have no chance to pay back; I want to give him, but he doesn't like it... I used to think: The reason why I became a person with direction is because I like the way he looks at me; now I realize that what I like is what I see in his eyes, the self... But now he doesn't look at me gone."

"So he's busy dating now, are you...jealous?"

"Jealous?" Ye Zi tried to figure out her own mood: "It's really a bit like jealousy-love, friendship... aren't they all sources of spiritual satisfaction?"

Come on, figured it out.

Sweat dripped from Lin Lang's forehead: I didn't know that the friendship between you guys...is so complicated.

"So... do you think that the meaning of doing "New Movie" will disappear if Qin Qing is not here?"

"Yes." Ye Zi nodded, and added: "Of course it doesn't mean that I don't have feelings for "New Movie", I have a very persistent love for "New Movie"—otherwise I wouldn't give you money to pay your salary."

Lin Lang was stunned: "My salary...isn't the school subsidizing it?"

Ye Zi sneered: "What do you think the price is for me pestering the school to take down "New Movie"? There is no operating budget, and no manuscript fee budget—only old or second-hand manuscripts from famous artists, or manuscripts from newcomers... In short, I rely on asking people everywhere to collect content——Film University only approved me an office and a one-year issue.”

Lin Lang suddenly regretted that he used the word "dirty" to describe Shun Er when he was chatting with him.

"Anyway...yes, the meaning is gone...half."

At this point, Lin Lang also figured it out, and simply asked Ye Zi: "If Qin Qing is willing to work on "New Movie" with you, it is a confirmed result that "New Movie" will be discontinued...Even so, you Does it still make sense?"

Ye Zi smiled wryly: "I always feel... At least give me a period of time. During this time... I can work hard to build a new house—and then, 'Golden House Cangjiao'. Haha!"

Lin Lang also smiled: "So I'm just a tool man?"

"I'm sorry." He apologized.

"Don't worry, I'm also teasing you." Lin Lang patted Ye Zi's shoulder: "Then... I resign."

"Eh?"

Ye Zi stopped in her tracks, but Lin Lang didn't.

He turned around after walking a few steps away, and smiled to himself: "I recognize you very much. So... for the 'new house' project, remember to bring me back as the foreman."

Leiyin Technology released a commercial.

The ad depicts a warm school scene: a young teacher who is just a teacher is wandering in the class, and when she hears a group of children talking about "spaceships", she bends down to join the discussion: "This teacher told you:..." ; Switch the scene to another group of children talking about "what is artificial intelligence", and she quickly rushes to follow the instructions: "This teacher knows:..."; then switch to the next group of children discussing "Meng's mother moved three times" In the allusion scene, she came quickly again; the fourth scene was switched, when a child looked at a rare word and muttered "what does this word read?", the teacher came quickly, panting but still smiling, When he was about to speak, he was stopped by an older teacher who looked serious.Then, the old teacher handed the child a Leiyin learning machine.Then the screen gradually turned black, and a line of words floated on the screen: "We have no right to see the world for you, we only teach you how to embark on your own journey—Leiyin smart children's learning machine, teach you how to fish."

Mingming is a public service advertisement that advocates the concept of "the process is greater than the answer".

It is secretly satirizing the neglect of children's learning habits by the excessive "nanny service" of Chestnut Technology.

Although the target customer group is children, parents actually pay the bill.In fact, in the final analysis, the functional value of the two learning machines is not so obvious which is higher and which is lower.Occupying the high ground of public opinion in terms of "educational philosophy" and impressing the hearts of parents are the key to victory in this public relations battle - when writing this advertisement script, Lin Lang used this idea to write.

As soon as the advertisement was released, it really sparked a very heated discussion again.

Refreshing the discussion on the "Leiyin VS Lizi Battle" on various social networking sites on the mobile phone screen, Lin Lang sighed: The new media era has indeed occupied the "now"—if five years ago, two weeks in half a month There is a high probability that there is no way to show the wonderful struggles of big brands coming and going.

——"Now is a special period. If you find an outlet and sit firmly on it, Wen Wen will not be able to kill anyone."

——"If I knew you were so stubborn, I would never do these stupid things with you."

——"Now is not the era of 'home world', small bean sprouts can also support big rocks!"

Lin Lang lay on the bed with his eyes closed.

In a trance, I felt that I saw a big house.It's shiny and golden.

The author says:

Lin Lang: From now on, I want the golden house to hide the jade tree!

Tang Yushu is happy: good!Wife come on!
