1978 Synthetic Writers

Chapter 70 Gun

What is the movie "Fist of Fury" about?
Chen Zhen's master was poisoned to death by the Japanese. His disciple Chen Zhen went to the Japanese dojo alone to compete with a group of masters.

In the end, he killed his enemy, washed away the shame for his master, and restored dignity for the country and the nation.

So who is Chen Zhen’s master?
He is more famous than Ni Kuang's fictional Chen Zhen——

Huo Yuanjia.

"This is a great topic! It will definitely be a hit!" Jiang Xian excitedly.

Although there were very few themes about Huo Yuanjia in China before and people don't know much about Huo Yuanjia, it was able to take advantage of the popularity of "Fist of Fury" because "Heroes of Huo Yuanjia" was so popular.

In 1983, the Hong Kong drama "Heroes of the East" was broadcast in mainland China, triggering a viewing craze that attracted "tons of people to watch". The invisible "mysterious fist" in the drama set off a martial arts craze, and the theme song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" was well-known.

“After a hundred years of slumber, the Chinese people are gradually waking up.” Jiang Xian can still sing it now.

He also particularly liked Chen Zhen in the drama, played by Liang Xiaolong, who later became the "Fire Cloud Evil God". Even though he wore slippers and picked his feet in "Kung Fu", he was a top-tier fresh meat at that time and one of the Four Little Dragons. After starring in "Heroes of the East" and "Chen Zhen", he became a big star and was invited to the mainland for exchanges.

After returning to Hong Kong, he excitedly told the media: "This is the first time in my life that I have set foot on my own motherland. As a Chinese, I silently wish my motherland's economic take-off!"

When the news reached Ryukyu, he was immediately ordered to write a letter of repentance. Liang Xiaolong was a ruthless man who could fight 1v10 in real life. He was asked what was his mother's surname, and then he was banned by those bastards. He had to retire from the film industry and switch to small business, because Ryukyu was an important market for Hong Kong City at that time.

Another person who had the same experience was Tony Leung Ka Fai. He came to the mainland to make movies at the age of 27 and became the youngest winner of the Golden Horse Award. He was also ordered to write a letter of repentance. Tony Leung Ka Fai stood up straight and said, "I did nothing wrong. Why should I write it?", so he was also banned.

The youngest Golden Horse Award winner, holding his trophy, makes a living by selling things on the streets of Hong Kong.

8 month.

Zhang Jie was transferred to the Beijing Film Studio.

She published a film script "Seeking" in the 4th issue of "Film Creation" of Beijing Film Studio, and a film script "We Are Still Young" in the 8th issue, so she was seconded.

A film script is the first step in the overall creative process of a film and is suitable for public reading.

The literary script is further processed into a storyboard script, or "script", before the director can start filming.

Jiang Xian hosted a welcome party for Zhang Jie and called Feng Jicai, whom they both knew, to join them.

We found a state-owned restaurant and the three of us squeezed in and sat down.

"Teacher Zhang, now 304 and 305 have all defected to Beijing Film Studio. You and I will both be included in "The Legend of the Two Ministers" in "Beijing Literature and Art" in the future."

"Beijing Literature and Art Magazine is not as stingy as you say." Zhang Jie smiled, "But you are amazing, little brother. First, you published a manuscript in People's Literature, and then you were selected as a representative of young writers in Beijing at this literary congress. I am really happy for you."

"Yes." Feng Jicai was also envious. "My representative quota was not even included in the Writers Association. There are too many old writers in Tianjin, such as Sun Li, Fang Ji, Yuan Jing.
There are only two spots for Tianjin Young Writers Representative, one for Jiang Zilong and one for Su Amang. Do you know Su Amang? "

"Never heard of it." Jiang Xian shook his head.

"I know him." Zhang Jie's face showed a trace of sadness: "Su Amang is a talented man from Tianjin who is proficient in Esperanto. He is one year older than me. The last time I saw him, he was already physically and mentally disabled. He had lost his ability to work and couldn't even speak clearly."

The three of them were silent for a while.

Giving him this opportunity this time can be seen as compensation and care from the Tianjin literary and art circles.

"Big Feng, did they finally get you a spot?" Jiang Xian asked Feng Jicai.

"I got it. Guess where?"

"where?"

Feng Jicai looked miserable, "Chinese Folk Studies Society!

Damn, there is no such organization as the Folk Research Association in Tianjin, and the higher-ups gave me a quota. There was an extra vacancy, and the leader must have pitied me and arranged for me to join. " "Don't think like that, Da Feng." Zhang Jie comforted him, "It shows that you have a connection with folk culture."

Jiang Xian nodded.

"It really is."

This guy really has some kind of connection with folk culture, and the gears of fate start turning from this moment on.

Decades later, Feng Jicai became the chairman of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

As we were talking, the dishes were served on the table: braised pork slices, stir-fried pork liver with garlic, mutton cake, and stir-fried vegetables.

Jiang Xian picked up a piece of mutton cake with chopsticks, which was fresh, tender and smooth, and then tasted some yellow tooth vegetable.

Authentic! Authentic!
He wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Da Feng, I want to discuss something with you."

"Well, you said."

"I have a work. I have written a rough outline of it. The main idea is clear now, but there are still hundreds of thousands of words of details left. Can you write it for me? We will split the money 70% and 30% at the end."

Feng Jicai paused with his chopsticks and said, "Okay, but is 70% too much?"

"Seventy percent is mine, and the remaining thirty percent is yours."

"."

Ghostwriting is a common thing among writers. Ni Kuang once ghostwrote "Tian Long" for his good friend Jin Yong.

Jin Yong told Ni Kuang: "My characters have basically appeared and their personalities have been developed. You can continue writing according to this thread. Don't be bound by it."

Ni Kuang: “Good, good, good.”

As soon as Jin Yong left, Azhu died at the hands of Qiao Feng.

Jin Yong was furious and had no other choice but to write another character named A Zi, and again told Ni Kuang: "A Zi must not die this time!"

Ni Kuang: “Good, good, good.”

Just after Jin Yong left, A Zi was beaten and then blinded. She had an ambiguous and shameless relationship with You Tanzhi, which was very exciting.

Jin Yong was angry and helpless, and finally discussed with Ni Kuang that he might as well write Qiao Feng's death himself, so that he would not have to be torn between the hatred of his country and his family. If Qiao Feng died, A Zi would definitely not live, and if A Zi died, You Tanzhi would not live either, so they might as well die together.
Compared with these two, Jiang Xian felt much more at ease with Feng Jicai. After all, Huo Yuanjia was a real person in history and a hero of their Tianjin Wei.

If he didn't write well, he would apologize directly to the people of Tianjin.

"Little brother, aren't you being partial? You don't take me with you for such a good opportunity?" Zhang Jie pretended to be angry.

"In the future, this work of mine is suitable for Da Feng. I will definitely work with you, Teacher Zhang, if I have the chance."

Jiang Xian has a far-sighted vision.

Everyone is poor these days, and the royalties are not much. Since you have nothing to do anyway, you might as well become his gun and make money together.

Moreover, he has such a wide network of contacts that Feng Jicai and Zhang Jie also brought Comrade Wei Guo in.

Make some longer-term plans.

Find a master translator who is proficient in foreign languages, preferably Chinese-English translation, and who understands "faithfulness, expressiveness and elegance", and submit the manuscript directly to overseas for export to earn foreign exchange for the country.

The pattern opened up instantly.
