Chapter 59 Gold Always Shines
The short story narrated by Li Dong is the short story "The Gift of the Magi" written by O. Henry, one of the three masters of short stories in his previous life.
In the past, people often called the ending of the front circuit, which was unexpected, that is, unexpected, and reasonable, as "O'Henry-style ending".
This story has been very soothing since the beginning, it is about two people preparing gifts for each other, there is nothing cool, or even boring.
But the extreme suspenseful ending at the end of the story, the sudden outbreak of high @ tide, is endlessly evocative.
In this way, the drama comes out and makes everyone who has read this novel laugh with tears.
At this time, several people in the private room all looked at Li Dong in disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.
Old Lu smiled bitterly, and then picked up the teacup.
"Dongzi, I'll toast you with tea instead of wine, just now...... Brother waits slowly......"
Li Dong hurriedly picked up the teacup, pretending to be a modest elementary school student, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, I'm all blind ......"
Lao Lu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "If you say that, how can we be embarrassed." Dongzi, I will often come to sit in the future, you brother, I will admit it. ”
Several other people also picked up their teacups and toasted Li Dong one after another, their attitudes have completely changed, and they no longer have the high-minded style just now.
Only now did they really believe that the poem and those songs were written by Li Dong.
Someone who can write such a thought-provoking story definitely has such talent.
Huang Peiren next to him was so excited that even his beard trembled.
He turned his head and said with a solemn face: "Dongzi, is the copyright of this short story in your hands?"
Li Dong's face was full of confusion when he heard this, but he still nodded.
Lao Huang said solemnly: "Dongzi, I want to adapt this short story and make it into a movie?"
Listening to Lao Huang's words, Li Dong smiled indifferently.
"Brother, I wrote it all to play, so it's better to use it......"
Huang Peiren nodded heavily.
"Dongzi, my brother didn't say anything, this favor brother wrote it down. After this novel is made into a movie, regardless of whether it wins an award or not, the original work of the movie is you. Tomorrow I will find a lawyer to sign an agreement with you. ”
After he finished speaking, he said to Lao Lu: "Lao Lu, do me a favor and get the script for me." ”
Lao Lu clasped his hands into fists, and said with a smile: "That's what I mean, this job is mine, whoever robs me, I am in a hurry." ”
After Lao Huang finished speaking, he also hugged his fist at the other people.
"Several, this short story that Dongzi talked about today must be covered tightly for me, once it gets out, this trick will not work. ”
Several people listened to Lao Huang's words, and they all hugged their fists and agreed.
They understand what Lao Huang means, this short story, once they know the ending, that strong shock is gone.
They and Lao Huang have been friends for many years, and of course they won't do that kind of thing that hurts others and themselves.
Huang Peiren thought for a while, then took out a pen and paper from the leather bag next to him, and began to write and draw on it, with a very dignified expression.
A director of Lao Huang's level has made countless commercial films and a lot of literary films, and the level is absolutely not said.
Now that his mind has begun to construct various pictures and camera positions for the movie, Lao Lu on the opposite side also took out his laptop and began to prepare the script of this movie.
The two asked Li Dong from time to time, and then exchanged a few words with him.
Everyone else also actively participated, and was busy until the evening, and the skeleton of an art film was basically built.
Anyway, Li Dong doesn't understand professional things, but he is also the original work, and everyone will ask his opinion when adapting this story.
It wasn't until Li Dong was going to sing in a bar that Lao Huang let him go.
But when he was leaving, he specially instructed: "Dongzi, the script is adapted, I will let you see it, and if you have any opinions, just put forward." Then I started preparing for the film. By the way, you are also one of the main creators of the movie, and you will also have to be present when you interview the actors in the next step. ”
Li Dong smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this, you guys shoot you, I know a fart.
"Brother, I'm a complete layman, you and Brother Lu are all done, I won't go. ”
After listening to Li Dong's words, Huang Peiren suddenly quit.
"Brother, you're not right, at this time, do you want to pick a son, this movie is related to the happiness of my brother in the second half of my life, regardless of my brother?"
Li Dong smiled bitterly: "But I really don't understand." ”
"Whoever is born can learn, you can learn. Besides, you kid has so many things in his head that he might be able to pop up at any point, so you'll have to keep following. ”
Lao Huang said so, and Li Dong had no choice but to agree.
He smiled bitterly in his heart, I have a fart thing in my head, it's all someone else's.
The next day, Li Dong received a call from He Guangwei, saying that he was looking for him to drink.
In the evening, he came to Fisherman's Wharf.
At this time, Li Guangnan and He Guangwei had already arrived, and there were already a few empty wine bottles on the table.
After Li Dong sat down, he saw that the expression on He Guangwei's face was a little bad.
He glanced at Li Guangnan next to him, and the other party shook his head with a wry smile.
Today, He Guangwei is very silent, drinking glass by cup, he doesn't need to be persuaded at all, he just pours himself into himself.
He Guangwei is a very rational person, and there are few times like this.
Li Guangnan couldn't hold back.
"Lao He, if there is anything, just say it......"
He Guangwei raised his wine glass, raised his head and drank it all.
Then he slammed the wine glass on the table and said with a wry smile: "I'm not in Mandala anymore......"
Li Dong listened to it and understood a little more in his heart.
He Guangwei poured another glass for himself, and then said: "Last time, because of Dongzi's matter, Zhou Hang and I were a little awkward. This time, Dongzi went to MG, because I didn't inform him in advance, so Zhou Hang was very passive in Haizhu Company, so we had a big quarrel. ”
He picked up his glass, tilted his head and drank it dry.
"It happened that a friend opened a small company in Pujiang and asked me to go over to be the deputy minister of the Ministry of Resources, so I agreed, and then talked to Zhou Hang and asked him to withdraw my shares in the bar. ”
When he said this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have been working in Mandala for ten years, and I am very unhappy when I leave this coldly. ”
Li Guangnan picked up the wine glass and touched it with He Guangwei.
"Lao He, you should have left a long time ago, you are stupid every day, I support you this time. ”
Li Dong also raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "Big brother, you are talented, you can do something wherever you go, gold will always shine." ”
He Guangwei laughed and shouted, "Okay...... Then I will borrow your auspicious words, and I don't know when I will be able to return. ”
