Chapter 15 Follow-up
The work of the new picture is done well, and the publicity is indeed powerful. In the evening newspapers in various places that day, there were reports of Lao Tozi's new films. In the evening entertainment news, he took the lead in the headlines, such as caring about the old areas and supporting local education.
However, Feng Zhenchang and Mei Qiuping, who were determined to see their son's charming style on TV, were disappointed. The cameras flashed around, but they were always focused on Director Zhang. Occasionally, in the corner of the picture, you could see a corner of the blue and white school uniform.
The newspaper reports are all focused on new films planned for new pictures and good deeds in the morning. For Feng Yiping, it is generally replaced by high school students.
However, there is an exception to reports in one place. For example, the provincial evening newspaper not only reported the signing of the contract, but also mentioned the novel that was favored by director Zhang Da this time. It was written by an 18-year-old high school student in our province. He once again emphasized how rich and powerful our province is, and it is outstanding.
The city's reports focus is different, and the focus is on the emphasis that under the correct leadership of the municipal party committee and government and the unremitting efforts of the education system, the recent achievements have been very gratifying, including this time, the works of Feng Yiping, a student in the second grade of the city, have been favored by well-known domestic directors and are preparing to shoot a movie of the same name.
Of course, the key point is the correct leader. From the past to the present, of course, they are all Mayor Fang. However, the newspapers in the city are not so stingy with the children in the city. Finally, they mentioned Feng Yiping's name once.
In the evening news of the city station, the signing ceremony was reported around the protagonist Mayor Fang. Now, Director Zhang Da was the foil, and Feng Yiping finally showed his face.
In short, although Feng Yiping is just the "high school student in school" outside the city, he is also well-known in the city, and at No. 1 Middle School, he has become a celebrity completely.
I wrote a novel. I had something to do with the great director. The copyright was sold for 50,000 yuan and then donated it. These are hot topics.
This kind of attention is not what Feng Yiping hopes. He has never dared to drive to school these two days, for fear that everyone will dig out his driving.
Things in the entertainment industry are all like this, and they go quickly. In a few days, everyone is concerned about the casting of Director Zhang. After a few days of appetite, as Feng Yiping remembers, the new picture puts out their plans. This time, it is planned to let the amateur actors play the role of the domestic wide screen, which is another new and bold attempt. So, they have successfully seized a lot of headlines again.
In short, just like the real estate business before, Boss Zhang, who had a new scene, successfully attracted enough attention before the filming of the drama started.
However, the same posting of headlines similar to other companies cannot significantly increase sales of their own newspapers or magazines, thereby bringing more advertising contracts. Therefore, a Southern weekly magazine took a different approach and began to question Feng Yiping. The key point was whether a twelve-year-old junior high school student could write such a novel.
Then they analyzed the novels published by Feng Yiping before and after the harvest. The second one was the story of an old man and his dog who depended on each other. The third one was the story of a migrant worker after entering the city. The junior high school student wrote three novels on such a subject, but he really couldn't find any major problems.
I have to say that Feng Yiping's prudence at the beginning made sense, and in terms of the theme and age fit, it really makes people unable to find any flaws.
However, the weekly magazine was unwilling to give up like this, and finally produced a questioning article, that is, a teenage child who has not even formed a world outlook, life values, how could he have such mature ideas? Then he still extended their problems. Are these articles really written by Feng Yiping?
They didn't even have a field interview at Liangjiahe Middle School. They just made an article based on their own subjective assumptions, and the title was "Genius or fake?"
Not to mention, the sales of that issue of the weekly magazine have increased significantly. There is no other reason. Compared to being outstanding in people, more people still want to be embarrassed by people and make themselves happy when they see unhappy in other people.
Some employees of Yangcheng Dacheng Law Firm also saw this weekly magazine. They wanted to speak out. This is definitely not a fake. Feng Yiping also wrote many songs in the name of Deep Sea. Some of them can be regarded as classics! However, they cannot say that because Feng Yiping signed a confidentiality agreement with them.
Then, Feng Yiping received a call from Deputy Director Zhang, and he said to Feng Yiping indignantly, "The articles in this weekly magazine are completely slanderous. Should we ask for an explanation on your behalf?"
Feng Yiping rejected him neatly, "Thank you Director Zhang for your concern, but it doesn't matter, I don't care."
He instinctively felt that this old guy definitely wanted to earn another lawyer's fee from him, and those weekly magazines wanted you to sue him. The more lawsuits, the higher their sales.
As long as no one pays attention, everyone will automatically throw this matter behind their minds after a long time.
However, the development of things is often beyond people's expectations. Just when this incident was almost forgotten, the Taiwanese publishing company that represented Feng Yiping's fresh-style novel suddenly came out to speak out. The new fresh-style novel "Those Years" published by their company was the same author as the novel that director Zhang Da was interested in, and they were both written by Feng Yiping.
This is simple to say. Lao Touzi's influence in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places is not built. A fan of the publishing house. After seeing the relevant reports, he noticed Feng Yiping's name, the same name, the same pseudonym, the same place, the same school, it must be the same person. So what else to hesitate? Taking advantage of this trend to promote it, maybe it can be reprinted again.
Later, when the other party told Feng Yiping in the form of express delivery, Feng Yiping was helpless. He did not sign a confidentiality agreement with the publishing company. At that time, a new author like him had no room for bargaining with the publishing company.
The impact afterwards can actually be said to be positive. A Hong Kong publishing house that originally rejected Feng Yiping, and sent a letter again to discuss publishing matters with him.
Later, a mainland literary journal also published an evaluation of Feng Yiping's novel, "The story is peaceful and soothing, the words are fresh and timeless, and the brushstrokes are delicate. With the experiences of these years, writing the story of "those years". After reading it, you will evoke your memories of your youth, and you will feel a faint touch, a faint joy, and a faint sadness. In short, it can be regarded as a masterpiece that pioneered the world."
Then it became lively. Many domestic companies, including some publishing houses that originally rejected Feng Yiping, sent letters to discuss publishing matters with him. For a time, Feng Yiping's popularity even overshadowed the first New Concept Composition Competition held in China.
To be honest, Feng Yiping almost gave up on the delusion of being a founder of the school. Who knew that he had made a turnaround in this way was really beyond his expectations.
Of course, he sincerely welcomes such things such as fame and fortune, especially those with "profit"! (To be continued...)
