Meng Jing's special article "Literary Life" has come to an end. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
She put the focus of the article on Zhao Liying, who is becoming popular, and gave a comprehensive introduction to the quasi-international movie star that Haomeng Company focuses on cultivating.
At the end she wrote:
"Zhao Liying still has a long way to go in the future, no one knows where she can go, just like the future of Good Dream Company, to what extent the film and television company founded by Lin Zixuan and his friends will develop, we are watching, observing, and looking forward to it."
Half a year, 25 articles, a total of more than 300,000 words.
"Literary Life" tells the bits and pieces of Lin Zixuan and Haomeng's past, and outlines the style of the literary and artistic circle in the nineties of the last century through the description of various characters.
It may be biased and insufficient, but it contains a feeling.
As soon as we entered the new century, everyone began to feel nostalgic.
This has something to do with the fact that the pace of life is getting faster and faster, and the previous ten years were a nostalgic cycle, but now the events of five years ago will feel unfamiliar, as if they were stories from another era.
The public selectively forgets the past, or has no time to be nostalgic.
When the new generation of people mentions the 90s, they will feel backward and incredible, how to live without mobile phones, and people's values are changing unconsciously.
This series of articles can resonate with readers, in addition to introducing popular stars, there is also the simple life and interpersonal relationships of the 90s.
The readership of Sanlian Life Weekly is skewed towards petty bourgeoisie and intellectuals.
This part of readers likes Meng Jing's articles, Meng Jing is famous in the entertainment industry, different from those entertainment reporters who blindly pursue hot news, her articles have a certain feeling and depth.
Or rather, she has her own brand.
In the circle of Yuji, Meng Jing and another female reporter named Yuan Lei are called "Southern Yuan and Northern Meng".
Their stories have their own perspectives and characteristics that appeal to a specific readership.
The most important thing is that they have their own resources, can get exclusive interview opportunities, and can chat with celebrities.
Meng Jing is in the north, and the biggest resource in her hands is Haomeng Company, and Yuan Lei is in the south, and she has a better understanding of the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, which is the direction of her key reports.
At the end of "The Life of Literature and Art", readers responded well, and the editor-in-chief of the magazine suggested that Meng Jing should publish it in a collection.
Taking advantage of the popularity of "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure", books related to Good Dream Company will definitely sell at a good price, and Meng Jing will gain fame and fortune because of this.
It's called rubbing heat.
"Sanlian Life Weekly" and Sanlian Bookstore, which is responsible for book publishing, belong to the same company, and there are publishing resources, and the magazine can also make a fortune from it.
However, in order for this book to become a bestseller, it is better to get the approval of Good Dreams.
Once it is officially recognized, it can be branded as a good dream company in publicity, and even ask a popular star of good dreams to recommend this book.
If the cover of the book is printed with the words "Ge You, Feng Xiaogang and other dozens of celebrities jointly recommended", it will be difficult for the book to become popular, and it is not a big problem to sell hundreds of thousands of copies.
However, it is not easy to get the recognition of Good Dreams.
This is the same as celebrity biographies, and there are two kinds of authors who write biographies, one is the authors authorized by celebrities, and the other is unauthorized authors.
Authors who have been granted permission are justified and at the same time subject to certain constraints in writing.
You can't just get the authorization and turn around and scold this celebrity, which is not kind.
Unauthorized authors are more free in writing, and in order to attract readers to expose some wild histories and insider stories, they are suspected of infringing on the reputation of others, and they are easy to get into lawsuits.
"The Life of Literature and Art" wants to be recognized by the Good Dream Company and become the official version, and it is inevitable that it will be revised.
As an entertainer, Meng Jing is not so high-minded, thinking that the articles she wrote can't be moved, she has a cooperative relationship with Haomeng Company, and besides, she is still thinking about the interview with Lin Zixuan.
It would be even more perfect if an interview with Lin Zixuan was added to the book.
She informed the public relations department of Good Dreams about the publication of the book and the interview, and received a positive response.
This is a good thing, and it is good for the promotion of Good Dreams, but the content of the book needs to be further reviewed.
As for the interview, he was politely rejected by Lin Zixuan again.
Meng Jing retreated and invited Lin Zixuan to write a preface for the picture, and it was reasonable for the chairman of the company to write a preface for a book that introduced the development of Haomeng Company.
Lin Zixuan declined the interview, and was embarrassed to refuse again, so he agreed.
He took the time to read Meng Jing's article, because he was a female reporter and engaged in entertainment work, he felt that the article was too emotional and lacked rational analysis.
Valuing the relationship between people is not enough in business.
In other words, the author did not look at the development and changes of the Good Dream Company and the literary circle from a certain height.
The nineties was an era of great changes, and as a person who came over, Lin Zixuan deeply felt the conflict and collision of ideas, the repeated changes in policies, and people's anxiety and helplessness.
Good Dream Company is the result of great changes and a product of the times.
He would like to use this preface to talk about his feelings about that era, and to tell the story of the past decade from the perspective of a literary and artistic worker.
"Our Decade" is the title he set for the preface.
Looking at Meng Jing's article, scenes of the past come to mind, from graduating from college to entering the system, and then leaving the system to start his own business, only he knows best.
Ups and downs, warm and cold.
Lin Zixuan is not blindly nostalgic, he focuses on the big times and small people, how to adapt to the changes of the times, and seize the opportunities in the changes.
"In the past ten years, Good Dream has gone from toddler to thriving, going through many changes, each time making itself stronger and more resistant to greater risks." Lin Zixuan concluded by writing, "Change is not terrible, it is both a challenge and an opportunity, and I look forward to the next decade." ”
After writing the preface on the manuscript paper, he checked it.
Although computers have gradually become the standard in the office, Lin Zixuan now prefers handwriting, he doesn't know if this is a regression, but he feels comfortable handwriting.
Since it's comfortable, there's no need to change it.
Lin Zixuan stood up, walked out of the study, came to the courtyard, and entered the wax moon, which became colder and colder day by day.
In the hall, Mu Shanshan is persuading and educating her naughty daughter, Zheng Xiulian is helping her granddaughter speak, and Xiaoxue is about to take the first final exam in her life.
It marks the official entry into a competitive environment.
Mu Zhiyuan and Li Hong will retire one after another this year, leave their jobs, and enjoy the joy of family, alternating between the elderly and children, this may be life.
Lin Zixuan took a few deep breaths of cold air and left his nostalgia behind.
He walked into the house, looked at his daughter's little eyes for help, and showed a relieved smile.
