There is one more thing that Yu Dong did not tell Yu Hua and the others. Not only "To Live", but also his "To the West" will be published in France soon after.
Not only in France, the English versions of these two books have been translated, and they will be available to English-speaking audiences after they are published in French-speaking areas.
According to Deep Space Company's plan, a large number of Chinese novels will be published in Europe in the future, including popular ones, serious ones, avant-garde ones, realistic ones, magical ones, and stream-of-consciousness ones.
As long as they are excellent novels, they will be sent to Europe by the Deep Space Company.
French, Spanish, German, and Italian. Their goal is to cover the entire Europe with Chinese novels.
…
The next day, when Yu Dong went to report to Wu Changxin, he heard good news from Wu Changxin.
The crew for the directing class field study has been decided.
"I really didn't expect that Manager Yu gave me a big surprise. He actually contacted the crew of "Water Margin"."
When he mentioned this, Wu Changxin's face lit up. He had just thought about finding a small crew and sending the students over to watch. He didn't expect that the margin was so great, and he was immediately cast in "Water Margin"
.
Hearing this result, Yu Dong was also quite surprised. The crew of "Water Margin" has attracted much attention now, because CCTV has already filmed three of the four famous movies, and only one "Water Margin" has not been released yet.
Last year, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was broadcast, causing quite a stir and triggering a wave of Three Kingdoms craze.
The filming of the previous three works has been successful, so the pressure has come to "Water Margin". Yu Dong has seen this version of "Water Margin" and knows that the final result is good, different from the previous three movies.
Yes, the adaptation of "Water Margin" is very big, and there are many aspects in it that are different from the original work. It can be said that the screenwriter and director are very bold.
Of course, it would not be appropriate to follow the original work of "Water Margin". Most of the Liangshan heroes in the original work were murderous villains with cruel methods, while the TV series shows more brotherhood.
Yu Dong has also paid attention to the news before. The filming of "Water Margin" started last spring, and it has just been a year now. As for when the filming will be completed, no one can say for sure.
After listening to what Wu Changxin said, Yu Dong knew why Yuliang contacted the crew of "Water Margin" and why he was able to contact them.
After Wu Changxin told Yu Liang about this, Yu Liang began to look around for movies and TV dramas that were being filmed. After searching around, he found that "Water Margin" was the most suitable.
"Water Margin" has a long time span, so students naturally have a long time to study. Moreover, most of "Water Margin" was filmed in Liangxi City, Jiangsu Province, not far from Jinling, so it is very convenient for students to go there.
Afterwards, Yuliang tried to contact the screenwriter Yang Zhengguang, and the matter was quickly settled.
Yang Zhengguang is a screenwriter and a writer. He also won the Zhuang Chongwen Literary Award in 1991. The company had contacted Yang Zhengguang before, so we were able to contact him this time.
After the director Zhang Shaolin heard about this, he was a little hesitant at first. Later, Yuliang told him that these students would not only study, but also help the crew with some chores, and they would not need to be paid or paid.
Food and accommodation.
When Zhang Shaolin heard that there was such a good thing, he immediately agreed. What the crew lacks most now is people. These students used to, if nothing else, at least be able to have more extras, and it was free.
Deep Space Company is also very interesting. Not only did they help contact the crew, but they also gave 3,000 yuan to Jin Yi as a director support fund. Although this is not much, it also helped Jin Yi solve a lot of things.
Wu Changxin also reciprocated, posting notices everywhere in the school, vigorously publicizing Deep Space Company's establishment of funds to support emerging directors. Also, only students majoring in directing were originally scheduled to go for internships. Later, when these funds became available, the school also added drama creation majors.
.
Students majoring in drama creation voluntarily applied, and the best were selected. Five people were finally selected, including Jia Zhangke and Wang Hailin.
…
In mid-April, Yu Dong called for Wang Jin.
At this time, between internships in the class and entrepreneurship, Wang Jin was left like a headless fly, staying in school all day not knowing what to do.
Moreover, Wang Jin is not as proactive as Qu Aiguo and Wang Kuo. He likes to keep everything in his heart and will never take the initiative to talk to Yu Dong.
Looking at Wang Jin in front of him, Yu Dong said angrily, "Does it mean that if I don't look for you, you will never come to me again?"
Wang Jin shook his head, "No, Teacher Yu."
"I think so." Yu Dong snorted and pointed to him the class roster, "Look at the people here, who else is in school?"
Wang Jin said nothing.
"It's just you, Wang Jin. What do you think? Don't want to work? But I haven't seen you take the postgraduate entrance examination... With your professional performance, there is no problem in taking the postgraduate entrance examination. You also have advantages in finding a job. You have good grades and are still with me.
If you have been to the United States, whether it is a public institution or a private company, it is not difficult for you to get in."
Wang Jin held the hem of his trousers with one hand and did not answer. He did not answer, and Yu Dong did not open his mouth either, just wasting his time with him.
After a while, Wang Jin finally said, "Teacher Yu, I want to start a business."
Yu Dong was a little surprised when he heard that Wang Jin said he wanted to start a business. Wang Jin was different from Qu Aiguo and Wang Kuo. He was more introverted and even a little shy, so he was not suitable for starting a business at all.
But since he opened his mouth, there was a conversation. Yu Dong smiled and said, "Isn't this an idea? Then why don't you do it? Because of money?"
Wang Jin shook his head, "It's not about money, it's about some different opinions in my family."
It turned out to be a problem at home. Wang Jin’s family, Yu Dong, knew something about it. After all, he had taken care of him for eight years. Wang Jin’s family was from Henan Province. His parents made some money by selling shoes in the past few years, and now they have a small workshop at home.
, specializes in making shoes, and I heard they do pretty well.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What do your family members think, and what do you think?" Yu Dong asked.
"I want to make clothes and create my own brand, but my dad insists on letting me go home and sell shoes with him."
Yu Dong was a little surprised. Although the economy has developed in the past two years and the world has changed, it is still rare for a college student to finally come out of his family and go back to start a small business after graduation.
"Is your business very big?" Yu Dong asked.
Wang Jin shook his head and said, "It's not that big. The main reason is that my dad has made some money in the past few years, probably two to three hundred thousand. He feels that the times are developing now, and I have no future in finding a job to earn a living wage."
."
"Don't you also want to start a business? This doesn't conflict with your father's ideas."
"He thinks it's unreliable for me to start my own business, so I might as well follow him. Nowadays, shoes are easy to sell. Whether they are upside down or made by our family, they are sold out as soon as they are put out. My dad wants to make the workshop bigger.
Open a regular store." Wang Jin said distressedly.
Yu Dong narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "This is easy to handle. Just make shoes with your dad. You will be responsible for the design and production, and let your dad and the others be responsible for the sales. You, use what you have learned in your family's workshop
It will definitely be able to sweep through your area."
"But I don't like designing shoes, I just like designing clothes."
"Then design clothes. Since shoes can be sold, clothes can also be sold. You are stupid. With your father helping you develop the market, you can just do design and production. It will be easier to build a brand in the future."
"But my dad would not agree to let me make clothes. He just wanted to make shoes, and he never thought about designing products and making his own brand. He felt that making his own brand would be better than just imitating those brand shoes."
Yu Dong smiled, Wang Jin was just not as smooth as Qu Aiguo and the others.
"Gou Jian is willing to sacrifice his life to restore the country, so you can't compromise with your father for your own brand? Your father doesn't want you to make clothes because he feels that the profit from selling shoes is enough for him, and there is no need to expand other businesses.
And he doesn’t want to design his own shoes and make a brand because he feels it’s a thankless job. What do you do? You study arts and crafts. You not only need to understand design, but you also need to know how to analyze the market. You analyze the market situation to your father.
, doesn’t he understand?”
Wang Jin didn't speak, and Yu Dong continued, "Okay, even if he still doesn't understand, if you go back and take over the workshop, wouldn't you still have the final say on what shoes or even clothes you want to make later? If you are right
I am very confident in my designs and I believe that if I make anything, it will be sold, so I don’t think your father will have any objections."
"Teacher Yu, aren't you teaching me to usurp power?" Wang Jin lowered his head and muttered.
Yu Dong glanced at Wang Jin angrily, "Even if you don't want to usurp power, then you can set up a small workshop and make a few clothes at first and sell them through your father's channel. If they sell well, your father won't
In other words, if it doesn’t sell well, your design has been verified by the market. Of course, you still need to make your own decision in the end. But whether you want to start your own business or go home with your family, you must make a decision quickly and not delay it.
This kind of thing can't be solved automatically by delaying it."
Perhaps it was Yu Dong's words that moved Wang Jin. He nodded, "Teacher Yu, I understand. I'll go back and talk to my dad."
"That's right, there's nothing we can't talk about. If you insist on starting your own business, I think he should understand." Yu Dong smiled and asked, "You said you wanted to start your own clothing brand, what's the point?
Specific ideas, what style do you want to focus on, and what consumer groups do you want to target? There should always be a plan for these."
Speaking of this, Wang Jin is obviously more willing to speak, "I want to be a sports brand, focusing on the mid-to-low-end market. With economic development, the national demand for clothing will definitely increase day by day, especially for sportswear. Now
It is still a blue ocean waiting to be developed. When I went to the United States before, I found that many people in the United States wear sportswear as daily clothes. I think this will also happen in our country in the future."
Yu Dong nodded, "Since you want to make a sports brand, why don't you start with shoes? As far as I know, there is no sports brand that does not make shoes. It can be said that shoes are the foundation of a sports brand. And your home is
It will be easier for you to make shoes if you follow behind."
"The R&D cost of mainly making shoes is too high." Wang Jin shook his head and added, "There is no way we can outperform those big brands in making shoes."
"You are wrong in this idea. If you make shoes, there is still hope. If you don't make shoes, you will never be able to compete. Everyone knows that making shoes is more difficult than making clothes, but no sports brand will give up making shoes." Then.
Yu Dong waved his hand again, "I don't know much about business, and I don't have much advice for you. However, if you encounter any difficulties in the process of starting a business in the future, you can come to me. Even if I don't understand, you can still find someone who does.
Someone help you.”
"Thank you, Teacher Yu." Wang Jin said gratefully.
"You're welcome." Yu Dong patted Wang Jin on the shoulder and encouraged, "Do a good job. I hope one day I can wear a set of clothes of your brand all over my body."
Wang Jin nodded heavily, "I will definitely work hard."
…
Wang Jin finally decided to go home and develop their small factory with his parents.
When he went home, Yu Dong sent him to the school gate.
Seeing Wang Jin getting into the car with his luggage, Yu Dong breathed a sigh of relief. Gongmei 91 was fighting for the time being. At the same time, this also meant that it had been almost four years since he returned to Jinyi.
Four years passed by in a blink of an eye, but there were so many memories left behind. Not to mention, Yu Dong was really sad when he watched Wang Jin get into the car and leave.
But for the students, this is not the end, but another beginning.
After standing at the door for a while, Yu Dong turned around and went back. Uncle Zhou stood at the door of the communication room and said with a smile, "Teacher Yu, don't be sad. They will be back after a while. The graduation ceremony hasn't been held yet. Then they will be back."
I have to come back to get my diploma. I welcome new people and send off old people every year. I have seen it a lot and am used to it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Dong waved his hand, "Don't be sad, they are gone, nothing happened."
Uncle Zhou stared at Yu Dong's back and said with a smile: "They are all the same, tough-talking."
Then Uncle Zhou entered the communication room playing a ditty. Now the nature of his work has changed. He doesn't need to stand outside often, and he is more like a clerk.
Uncle Zhou was just about to make himself a new cup of tea when he caught a glimpse of a veiled woman outside who was stopped by another guard.
This kind of thing happens often in Jinyi Jinyi. Uncle Zhou took one look and stopped looking at it.
But after a while, the woman still hadn't left, so Uncle Zhou came out and asked, "Xiao Fang, what's going on?"
Xiaofang turned around and explained to Uncle Zhou, "This lady said she wanted to see Teacher Cheng, but she didn't make an appointment."
"Which Teacher Cheng?" Uncle Zhou asked.
"Teacher Cheng Yanqiu from the Conservatory of Music." Xiao Fang replied.
"Oh." Uncle Zhou walked up to the woman with a teacup in his hand, "Girl, do you have anything to do with Teacher Cheng?"
"I just have something to do with her," the woman said.
Uncle Zhou frowned. This woman looked suspicious. It was already mid-April, the weather was very good today, and the sun was bright, but she was wearing a thick hat and covering the lower half of her face with a scarf.
, only one pair of eyes can be seen.
These eyes look like they haven't slept for a few days. They are covered with dark circles and are swollen.
The key is, ask her if there's anything she doesn't want to say.
After thinking about it, Uncle Zhou said to Xiao Fang, "Xiao Fang, if you are troubled, go to the government affairs building to find Teacher Cheng. She should be in the office now. If you can't find it, go to Teacher Yu..."
When she heard that she was looking for Teacher Yu, the woman quickly waved her hand, "No, don't look for Teacher Yu. If you can't find Teacher Cheng, forget it."
Uncle Zhou looked at the woman strangely, nodded and said, "That's it, but what is your name, girl?"
"Just tell her my surname is Kan."
"See?" Uncle Zhou pointed to his eyes, "See this?"
"One of the characters in the family dares."
"Let's read this word." Uncle Zhou said with a smile, "Okay, Xiao Fang, you can go ahead. Girl, come in and sit down and have a drink of water."
Kan Tingting shook her head and said, "Thank you, sir, no need."
Seeing her refusal, Uncle Zhou didn't say much and carried the tea cup into the reception room. There was a young man outside.
After about seven or eight minutes, Cheng Yanqiu came over with Xiao Fang.
As soon as Cheng Yanqiu came over, he saw Kan Tingting who was living a tight life, and said in surprise, "Tingting, what are you doing?"
The moment she heard Cheng Yanqiu, Kan Tingting's eyes with dark circles suddenly turned red, and two pools of tears welled up in her eyes.
Cheng Yanqiu hurriedly grabbed Kan Tingting's arm and asked, "What's wrong?"
Kan Tingting shook her head, which caused tears from her eyes to flow down her cheeks.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Cheng Yanqiu had to say, "Let's go to the dormitory first."
Before leaving, Cheng Yanqiu did not forget to thank Uncle Zhou and the others. Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's all part of my duty."
After Cheng Yanqiu and Kan Tingting left, Uncle Zhou patted his head and said, "There must be a story."
…
After arriving at Cheng Yanqiu's dormitory, Kan Tingting took off her hat and untied her scarf. Cheng Yanqiu looked at her face and was shocked, "Tingting, how did you do this?"
Kan Tingting's face was bruised and bruised, and a small piece of hair above her temple fell out, exposing the scalp underneath.
She didn't say anything, but Cheng Yanqiu suddenly reacted and said through gritted teeth: "Did your husband beat you?"
Kan Tingting nodded and kept crying.
"This beast!" Cheng Yanqiu took Kan Tingting's arm and said, "Let's go."
Kan Tingting looked at Cheng Yanqiu and asked with tears in her eyes, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the police. This is intentional harm and a crime!"
Kan Tingting shrank her arms, "You're not at the point of calling the police, are you?"
Seeing Kan Tingting like this, Cheng Yanqiu was angry and disappointed, "You don't want to go back to live with him, do you? If I'm right, this shouldn't be the first time. So you should also know that the more tolerant you are,
He only gets worse. Once this kind of thing starts, it won't stop."
"But..." Kan Tingting pursed her lips, "I don't know what to do, our children are already so old..."
As she spoke, she covered her face and cried again.
Cheng Yanqiu looked at her helpless look and sighed, "If I were you, I would definitely call the police. Even if I don't call the police, I will definitely get a divorce. You are still young now and you will have a long life in the future. If you leave him, you can still live well.
Live your own life."
"But the child..."
"You think you are doing it for your children's good, but think about it, your two children live in such a family and watch their father beat their mother every day. Do you think this is good for them? Also, do you think this is good for them?
, I don’t believe he doesn’t spank his children. Even if he doesn’t spank his children now, he will probably spank them in the future.”
Cheng Yanqiu looked at Kan Tingting, "I've told you everything I need to say. If you still decide to go back and live with him, I have no choice. Don't come to me again in the future."
Hearing the last sentence, Kan Tingting suddenly raised her head and met Cheng Yanqiu's eyes.
"I once went through a dark period, and then I met someone who made me come out. I am very lucky, but I also know clearly that if I don't have the desire to come out in my heart, then I will never leave.
Not coming out."
After saying this, Cheng Yanqiu shook his head and took out a medical kit from the cabinet, "Let me take care of it for you."
While dealing with it, Kan Tingting asked Cheng Yanqiu, "Yanqiu, have you experienced a dark period before? You are so beautiful, good at studies, and have a good family, so how could you go through a dark period? At that time, people in our class and the class next door
, many boys like you, we are all envious, I have always been thinking, it would be great if I were you."
While giving her the medicine, Cheng Yanqiu shook his head and said, "Tingting, the malice in this world will not be reduced because of appearance. Sometimes what you own can become sin in the eyes of others."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!...
When Yu Dong later heard about Kan Tingting's experience from Cheng Yanqiu, Kan Tingting had already decided to divorce, but the matter was not simple because Kan Tingting's husband did not agree to the divorce and they had two children.
Yu Dong had previously advised Cheng Yanqiu to handle things with caution, but this time he encouraged her to help Kan Tingting because Kan Tingting was already determined to divorce.
"What makes me happy is that when her husband threatened to upset his family if they divorced, she didn't give in."
"So, she deserves your help now. As for the threat from her husband, don't worry, I will help deal with it."
This kind of thing is really difficult for ordinary people to help, but for Dong, it is really not a problem. As long as you pay the money, the lawyer will help solve everything.
It was also because of this incident that Yu Dong suddenly wanted to write a script, namely "Don't Talk to Strangers".
He had been thinking about what he should write in his first independently completed script before. He had thought about science fiction, reasoning, and ethics, but he had never made a decision. It was at this time that he encountered Kan Tingting.
"Don't Talk to Strangers," a classic TV series that reflects on domestic violence, came to mind.
For a period of time after that, Yu Dong was working on the script of "Don't Talk to Strangers" every day. He wanted to write the script as soon as possible and then find someone to film it immediately. He didn't care about other actors. The protagonist would definitely have to find Teacher Feng.
Yu Hua and the others would come to play with him every day as usual, but when they saw that he was busy, they usually squatted at the door of his dormitory, smoked a cigarette and left.
