Chapter 455: Getting together
According to the plan, Clezio and Munro's trip in Aurous Hill lasted for two days. On the second day, the literature department would take them to their research group for a literary discussion.
But after the morning ended, Yu Dong "carried" the two of them to Jinyi.
In this regard, Shen Changhe and Cheng Liye both turned a blind eye.
Who said these two people were invited by Yu Dong and others?
Because there was no prior notice, Jin Yi did not set up a parade to welcome them grandly.
On the contrary, Uncle Zhou acted as a representative for the communication room and warmly welcomed the two of them at the door.
After Yu Dong and the others left, Uncle Zhou touched his head and asked, "Who are these two foreigners?"
Xiao Fang next to him shook his head: "I don't know. Teacher Yu knows a lot of foreigners. I guess they are some big directors or something."
Uncle Zhou curled his lips and said, "It's a pity that neither of these two people can speak Chinese. If they were both fluent in Mandarin like Jimmy, we could still have a chat. Alas, speaking of Xiaoji, I miss him a little. His visits have become much less frequent in the past two years."
Xiao Fang chuckled and said, "It's not that far away from the Chinese New Year. Mr. Ji will definitely be here for the Chinese New Year."
"That's right. Come and have a drink with him when the time comes."
…
Yu Dong and the others took Clezio and Munro for a walk around Jinyi. Jinyi was much smaller than Jinling University, and they finished the tour in a short time.
After visiting the school, I went to the principal's office and chatted with Wu Changxin for a while.
Wu Changxin actually wanted to give Clezio and the others a grand welcome ceremony, but Dudong and the others didn't think it was necessary, so they didn't do it.
When they met, Wu Changxin kept talking about this matter, apologizing and saying that Jin Yi had neglected the two of them.
After Wu Changxin passed by, Yu Dong waved his hand and led everyone to Luoyuan.
…
Yang Xiaoxiong arrived in Jinling at noon. The Deep Space Company sent a car to pick him up. They arranged for him to have a meal first, and then he met with the general manager of the Deep Space Company, Yu Liang.
At around one o'clock, we sent a car to take him to Luoyuan.
Before setting off from the Deep Space Company, Yang Xiaoxiong did not expect that the car would travel so far.
Yu Liang said that he would take him to Yu Dong's house. His first reaction was to go to Jin Yi. Later, he heard from the driver on the way and found out that Yu Dong had built a house in the suburbs.
This is quite interesting. Now that everyone else is rushing to the city, Yu Dong is better off building a house in the suburbs.
But when he arrived at the place, he was shocked by the scale of Luoyuan.
Before, the driver made an understatement of "building a house in the suburbs", but did not tell him that it was a garden.
When we arrived at the garden, we didn't see Yu Dong yet, but we saw Zhang Yimou and Liu Heping first.
Yang Xiaoxiong had never met Liu Heping before, but he had met Zhang Yimou. After they met in the reception room, Yang Xiaoxiong said in surprise: "Director Zhang, why are you here?"
Zhang Yimou smiled and shook hands with Yang Xiaoxiong, "I'm here to help Yu Dongzhike today. He has something to do and won't be here until later. Come, Editor Yang, let me introduce to you. This is Liu Heping from Hengyang."
"So Liu Heping is you." Yang Xiaoxiong laughed and ran to shake hands with Liu Heping.
Yang Xiaoxiong is in his early fifties and is now the editor-in-chief of "Drama and Film News". Liu Heping won the Cao Yu Drama Literature Award. Although Yang Xiaoxiong has never met Liu Heping, he has heard his name.
"Editor Yang, let's sit down and chat. Xiao Wang has gone to pour tea. He will be back in a moment."
Yang Xiaoxiong sat down, and before he could ask Xiao Wang who he was, Wang Hailin walked in with a ponytail and tea.
"You are Teacher Yang Xiaoxiong. I am a student of Teacher Yu Dong. My name is Wang Hailin. Please drink tea."
"thanks, thanks."
Yang Xiaoxiong stood up and took the tea, frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly patted his thigh and said: "You are the screenwriter of "Bring Her Eyes", right? This short film was published in our newspaper before, I remember you."
Wang Hailin smiled and said modestly: "I didn't expect you to remember me. "Bring Her Eyes" was co-written by me and the original author Liu Cixin. My contribution is very small."
"Young people, don't belittle yourself. Are you still in school?"
"I have graduated. Teacher Yu said that some of you industry leaders are coming over today and asked me to come over and study. I also happened to be bringing tea and water to the teachers."
"Oh, Yu Dong is so polite, thank you for your hard work, Xiao Wang."
Zhang Yimou couldn't help but feel a little sad when he looked at Wang Hailin, who spoke modestly and handled things appropriately.
He came into contact with Jin Yi relatively early. He knew Wang Hailin and Jia Zhangke when Wang Hailin and the others first entered college.
Not to mention Wang Hailin's talent, he also has a bad temper. He usually has no control over what he says, so only Yu Dong can control him.
Over the past few years, this kid's temper has calmed down a lot and he has become much gentler.
Yang Xiaoxiong took a sip from the tea cup and looked around the decorations in the room. He couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder you want to come home. It's much more comfortable to talk about work here than in the office. I also heard Yu Dong say this on the phone.
What we want to talk about is a costume drama. It’s appropriate to talk about a costume drama in this environment.”
He looked at Zhang Yimou again: "I just didn't expect that Director Zhang is here too. Director Zhang is also paying attention to TV series now?"
Zhang Yimou smiled and shook his head, "No, didn't I just say that I came here today to help Yu Dong Zhike and also study on the way."
Liu Heping said: "This old man didn't lie. He did come here temporarily. I didn't know he was coming before."
"Well, I originally came here because I had other things to do, so I was called here temporarily by Yu Dong."
"That's quite a coincidence."
The few of them chatted for a while, and then Yu Dong's parents and parents-in-law came up to say hello and then went down again.
After a while, Yu Dong and his party also rushed over.
As soon as they met, Yu Dong warmly shook hands with Liu Heping and Yang Xiaoxiong, and then introduced them, "This is Mo Yan, this is Yu Hua..."
Liu Heping and the others had heard of the first few, but when Clezio and Munro were introduced, they were a little confused.
They don't know much about foreign literature, and they know very few contemporary foreign writers.
But Yang Xiaoxiong and others have more or less heard of the awards that Clezio and Munro have won.
Seeing the luxurious lineup of writers this time, Yang Xiaoxiong and Liu Heping were a little embarrassed in their hearts. What kind of TV series was Yu Dong planning to create, with so many well-known writers participating in it?
Moreover, if we weren’t talking about a costume drama, how could these two foreigners get involved?
However, they soon discovered that they had misunderstood. After Clezio and the others came to play around, they went to another reception room, and only Yu Dong stayed.
"Teachers, I'm really sorry, everything happened together, otherwise I would have gone to the train station to pick you up today."
Yang Xiaoxiong waved his hand quickly, "Yu Dong, you are too polite. We all know that you are very busy, and we are all here for things. Nothing else matters, as long as the things are done well."
"Yes, that's what I mean too. As long as the script can be negotiated well, everything else doesn't matter." Liu Heping said with a smile.
Yu Dong nodded and took out a bunch of information from the bag he carried with him, "Then I won't waste any time. These are two story outlines I made myself, two in eight copies. You guys can take a look first.
Let’s talk in detail after reading it.”
