Chapter 448: Making Friends with Journalists
Now if Xu Hong buys a high-end car by himself, it will be better than Principal Chen's. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoIt's not just that other teachers don't look good, even Principal Chen will feel faceless.
How good it is now, although Principal Chen doesn't drive his car much, Xu Hong is driving. But even so, this car is still Principal Chen's. This fact is immutable. The car driven by Xu Hong is still the car of Principal Chen. Even if other teachers knew, they wouldn't care too much.
In the afternoon of the same day, Xu Hong taught a first-grade Chinese class at the school, and there was nothing else.
The next day, Xu Hong drove to the Beijing TV station again.
He took out the business card that the reporter had given him and went to the reporter's office.
This reporter's name is Zheng Ming. He told Xu Hong before, if possible, he would recommend it to the leaders to adapt their "Sanmao Wanderings" into a cartoon!
When Xu Hong saw the reporter again, he was a little dazed at first, when Xu Hong said his name and what he had done to him. This reporter said to Xu Hong helplessly: "Teacher Xu, I'm really sorry, I forgot about this." In this way, you give me the manuscript of your work, and I will tell the leader about it. However, it may take two days to know the outcome. β
When Xu Hong heard this reporter say this, he felt normal. After all, I just casually mentioned this to others before, and I didn't officially say that I wanted to change their "Sanmao Wanderings" into a cartoon.
Xu Hong listened to this reporter's words, and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, if after you say it, our "Sanmao Wanderings" can really be changed into a cartoon on your TV station, I will definitely invite you to dinner." β
Zheng Ming listened to it and said politely: "No, if you can change your "Sanmao Wanderings" into a cartoon, it will also be of great benefit to our TV station." β
"Haha, what Reporter Zheng said is, but it still depends on you to bother about this matter! In short, if our work can be successfully transformed into an animation on your TV station, I will definitely invite you to dinner. Xu Hong knows that no matter what, this depends on Zheng Ming to help, what's the matter, as long as the matter is completed, he has to invite others to dinner!
"Teacher Xu, you are too polite, okay, you put the manuscript here first, and I will go to the leaders immediately and let them take a look." Zheng Ming said again.
"Okay, that's it, Mr. Zheng, you have bothered a lot, I'll go back first, if our work can be changed into a cartoon, you have to call me immediately. Xu Hong looked at Zheng Ming again and said.
"Okay, don't worry!" Zheng Ming also said politely.
In this way, after Xu Hong put the manuscript to Zheng Ming, he left the Beijing TV station.
In the next few days, Xu Hong waited for the news, although Zheng Ming was not sure that his work would pass the leadership review. But he still has a lot of confidence in his heart. I feel that their works have already withstood the test of the market, and this time, the leaders of Beijing TV will definitely agree with Zheng Ming's opinion, and then change Xu Hong's work "Sanmao Wanderings" into an animated film!
Originally, Xu Hong thought that his works already had a certain popularity in the market. When Beijing TV reviews such works, it should be given priority, and it should be able to pass the review.
But what made him feel very strange was that after seven or eight days, he still didn't receive a call from Zheng Ming. It's as if Xu Hong didn't go to find this person at all, everything is so calm that Xu Hong is a little confused.
But Xu Hong thought that since he had told Reporter Zheng about this, he would definitely be interested and would definitely show his manuscript to the leader. Whether it can be passed or not, this also has to be given news!
However, seven or eight days have passed, and there is still no news, Xu Hong is a little anxious, so he went to Beijing TV to meet Zheng Ming again.
When Zheng Ming saw Xu Hong again, he said a little embarrassed: "Mr. Xu, I'm really embarrassed, I have already shown your work to the leader, I originally thought that your work has been published, and the popularity is also good, whether it is literary books or comic books, the sales are also good." This kind of work should have passed the review, but I don't know what's going on, after one of our deputy directors saw the work I gave him, he sneered and said: "Xiao Zheng!
When I heard this, I felt very puzzled, and I thought, how can you, the leader, say that, this is originally a work of children's literature, how can it be done without being naΓ―ve!
So, Zheng Ming looked at the deputy director and said: "Director Liu, how can you say that, this is children's literature, isn't it normal to be naΓ―ve! This work is originally for children and children, should it be the same as adult works?" β
After listening to Zheng Ming's words, Director Liu reprimanded him: "What do you know, today's children are weak and mature, although we are making cartoons, but this content can be completely adult, not necessarily childlike!"
Do you think that if the protagonist of the work is an adult, that is to say, a young person, can you win more viewers? You can't just think about making children like to watch it. Although we are afraid of animation, there are still some adults who like to watch cartoons. Especially some young girls, when they become adults, they still like to watch cartoons. β
After listening to Director Liu's words, Zheng Ming had nothing to say. He had no choice but to look at Director Liu and said: "But no matter what, Xu Hong's work has already published literary books and comic books, and this sales are also very good! Isn't this kind of work that has been tested by the market better than some works that have not yet been published!"
Zheng Ming saw that Director Liu was unwilling to change "Sanmao Wanderings" into a cartoon, so he explained it again.
After listening to Zheng Ming's words, Director Liu glared at him again and said: "Reporter Zheng, don't say that, every time our children's channel broadcasts a cartoon, it costs tens of millions of dollars! This is not a joke, although "Sanmao Wanderings" has already accepted the test of the market, but the results are not very good! Because of this, I don't plan to adapt this work!"
Zheng Ming was still a little unconvinced and said: "Director Liu, don't say that, I feel that the sales of the work "Sanmao Wanderings" are still okay, and in the recent interruption, the sales of this work have exceeded the sales of "Robot Adventures"!"
When Director Liu heard this, he looked at Zheng Ming again and said: "Is that right? Does this show that the sales of "Sanmao Wanderings" are very good! You must know that the reason why the sales of this work can surpass "Robot Adventure" is not that the sales of this work are high, but only because the sales of "Robot Adventure" are declining! It can be said that the sales of this outdated work have been declining this year, do you think I don't know! I am the deputy director in charge of the children's channel, and I know this better than you!"
As soon as he heard Director Liu say this, Zheng Ming didn't know how to refute it for a while, he thought for a while and said: "Director Liu, although what you said also has some truth, but I feel that the sales of the work "Sanmao Wandering" are still rising, which shows that the potential of this work is still there, I think, as long as you adapt this work into an animated film, then our ratings will definitely increase." β
Director Liu listened to Zheng Ming's words, then looked at him again and said: "Reporter Zheng, you don't have to worry about this, every time we invest in a work, it is tens of millions of funds, it's not just that you say that a certain work has potential, and then we have to invest! If you want to adapt this work into an animated film, the sales of this work must be raised by another level. So, within another year, we don't plan to adapt this work, if we want to change this work, we have to wait another year, and every time we put into shooting an animated film, it is the result of a long time of investigation. As long as the sales of this work can continue to rise after a year, we will consider adapting this work into an animated film. β
After listening to Director Liu's words, Zheng Ming has nothing to say, since Director Liu said so, then he, a little reporter, has nothing to say, and everything still has to listen to the leader!
In this way, Zheng Ming told Xu Hong about the adaptation of "Sanmao Wanderings" that he recommended Xu Hong into an animated film.
When Xu Hong heard it, he felt a little surprised, originally he thought that his work should be said to be very good. Literary books and comic books have already been published, and it can be said that sales are good.
However, it is really strange that such a good work cannot enter the eyes of Deputy Director Liu of Beijing TV Station.
But no matter what, people are leaders, and people have the power to decide which children's literature to adapt. No matter how much Xu Hong and Zheng Ming want to adapt "Sanmao Wanderings" into an animated film, if Director Liu disagrees, the two of them can only accept this reality.
"Teacher Xu, I'm really embarrassed, I've tried my best, and I also asked Director Liu to reprimand me for this!"
Zheng Mingming also tried his best to adapt Xu Hong's work into an animated film. But all the efforts were in vain, Director Liu just couldn't look down on Xu Hong's work, and he and Zheng Ming had no choice.
"Thank you, reporter Zheng, no matter what, I have to invite you to dinner, let's go, let's go to the restaurant for dinner together." Xu Hong thought, no matter what, he had to make this friend first. In the future, I may have to deal with Beijing TV station often! How can I do this if I don't know a friend?
Zheng Ming was still a little embarrassed, he looked at Xu Hong and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't get your things done, this is useless!
When Xu Hong heard this, he looked at Zheng Ming again and said, "I said, should we become friends!" No matter whether you have done my thing or not, but you have done your best, just by virtue of this, should I also invite you to dinner!"
Zheng Ming saw that Xu Hong also wanted to make him a friend, so he nodded and agreed.
In this way, the two went to a big hotel near the Beijing TV station, where Xu Hong was the host, and invited Zheng Ming to have a meal.
After a few glasses of wine, the two have become good friends who talk about everything. How to say, Zheng Ming and Xu Hong are about the same age. They are all young people, so they are naturally easy to get along with.
After eating this meal, the two of them can be regarded as good friends. Although Xu Hong didn't do what he wanted to do, he felt that it was good to be able to make Zheng Ming as a friend.
After the two chatted about things in life for a while, they talked about the work in front of them. At this time, Zheng Ming looked at Xu Hong and said: "Mr. Xu, what should you do next! Otherwise, you will wait another year to see if our Director Liu will be able to speak, I think, your works still have great potential, as long as you wait another year, then sales will definitely continue to rise." When the time comes, Director Liu will naturally be willing to adapt your work into an animated film. β
Xu Hong listened, touched a glass of wine for Zheng Ming and said: "This is the case, I want to find out first, what is the reason for this, I feel, this Director Liu, will it be deliberately unwilling to adapt our work into a cartoon!"
As soon as he heard Xu Hong say this, Zheng Ming looked at him again and said, "Why do you think so? Do you feel that Director Liu is doing things for others, and then he refuses to adapt our works into cartoons." β
"That's right, that's what I think, I don't know, what kind of person do you think your Director Liu is, is he an upright person. Xu Hong feels that the reason why Director Liu is reluctant to adapt their works into cartoons may be that someone is secretly obstructing!
"Hey, Xu Hong, if you say that, I don't think it's impossible. I have heard some gossip that this Director Liu has accepted bribes from the bosses of some children's literature publishing houses and adapted their works into cartoons!" After listening to Xu Hong's words, Zheng Ming felt that it was also very reasonable.
