Chapter 250: Good News
Towards the end of the year, Lin Zixuan received several pieces of good news. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The newspapers of Xiangjiang and Baodao have a habit of selecting the best books that appear in the year every year, and due to the influence of the movie, the novel "Alive" was rated as one of the top ten best books of the year by Hong Kong and Taiwan newspapers.
This is called flowering inside the wall and incense outside the wall.
Lin Zixuan suspected that those people had only watched movies and had not read novels at all.
At present, "Alive" is only published in French and Dutch, and there is no traditional version, and all the books in China are in his own hands, unless they read the magazine "Hundred Flowers".
In any case, this is a good thing, but the French and Dutch royalties will not be available until half a year later.
There is also good news from the magazine "Ancient and Modern Legends", the readers of the magazine have expressed their approval of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and hope to see more follow-up stories.
After all, the readers of this magazine are mainly lovers of martial arts novels, and they will naturally give encouragement when they see a good martial arts novel.
At the same time, there are some negative consequences.
A familiar writer called Lin Zixuan and asked him why he wanted to write martial arts novels, with a smell of anger in his tone, as if writing martial arts novels was a sin.
Now Lin Zixuan is well-known in the literary world, and with the book "Alive", he has mixed into the camp of avant-garde literature.
However, he has always been aloof, belonging to the periphery, and has not blended into the inner circle of others.
The main reason is that he is not active enough, rarely participates in the communication activities of the writer group, is more maverick, and is more involved in the film and television industry.
Moreover, he has not joined the two major writers' organizations, the Writers' Association and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.
In China, if you don't join these two organizations, as a writer, it is like having a bad background, and many writers go to great lengths to become members of them.
This is a symbol of the writer's identity, and it is also face-saving to say it.
Why didn't Lin Zixuan join, this matter is a little funny, if you want to join these two organizations, there are a few rules, not everyone can join casually.
One of them is that the applicant must have independently created and published a collection of literary works, usually more than two.
This alone is not up to the mark, and he has never published any literary work in China.
Speaking of which, "Alive" came out in a foreign language version and was exported overseas, which can be regarded as winning glory for the country, and the Writers' Association and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles should make an exception to let Lin Zixuan enter the organization in order to reflect their love for talent.
In fact, they didn't have time to hide in Lin Zixuan.
At present, there is still a lot of controversy in the novel "Alive", otherwise Zhang Yimou's film would not have been banned, and Changhe Literature and Art Publishing House would not have destroyed the books in stock.
Speaking of "The Stubborn Master", it is also relatively gloomy and not positive enough.
Absorbing such a writer into the Writers' Association and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles is like a time bomb, who knows what Lin Zixuan will write in his next novel, and whether he will stab Lou Zi.
Therefore, these two major organizations have no intention of letting Lin Zixuan join.
Lin Zixuan also didn't have this idea, and felt that it didn't matter if he joined or not, so he didn't apply.
He joined the Chinese Television Association and the Film Association, but he did not join the Writers Association, in fact, scripts are also literary works, and in terms of those scripts he has written, he has long been qualified to join.
This time, Lin Zixuan wrote a martial arts novel, but it did not cause much repercussions from the writers.
Maybe they think that Lin Zixuan has degenerated to the point of writing martial arts novels, and he is not on the same level as them, so there is no need to care, otherwise he will lose his identity in vain.
Some people will also express their regret for Lin Zixuan in a heart-wrenching tone, and they are probably gloating in their hearts.
Of course, some people are really concerned and puzzled by Lin Zixuan's writing of martial arts novels, at this time, there is still a big gap between orthodox literature and popular literature.
The last good news is the real good news for Lin Zixuan, Mu Shanshan is pregnant.
It should have been pregnant in October, and now it has been more than a month, except for some uncomfortable reactions, it can't be seen from the appearance, and they went to the hospital for an examination before it was finally confirmed.
This news made the Lin family and the Mu family overjoyed.
Annette Cheng is going to move to the courtyard house after the Chinese New Year to take care of their daily life.
The pregnancy made Mu Shanshan face a choice, she originally had to host this year's Spring Festival Gala, but the Spring Festival Gala was too bothersome, and it would take at least one or two months to be busy.
After thinking about it, she politely declined the job of the host of the Spring Festival Gala and spent the New Year at home with peace of mind.
For the Spring Festival Gala, Mu Shanshan doesn't have much nostalgia, she has hosted two Spring Festival Galas, and she has long lost her freshness.
Fortunately, there was still time to make it time, and the director team of the Spring Festival Gala urgently found a female host to fill the position.
After becoming pregnant, Mu Shanshan's pace of life slowed down significantly, and she began to think about other things, such as future planning, raising children, and whether to continue to work at Huaguo TV.
"After the Chinese New Year, the "Cultural Interview" will be hosted by someone else, and I will take a long vacation first. Mu Shanshan planned.
From pregnancy to childbirth, to the end of maternity leave, it will be a new beginning when she returns to Huaguo TV.
For women, especially working women, having children is a hurdle.
"If you want to quit your job, you can open your own studio, produce the programs you want to do, and then sell them to other TV stations, which is called a freelance producer. Lin Zixuan came up with an idea, "It doesn't have to be a talk show, you can also do news investigation or documentary or something, as long as you are interested." ”
"Where did the funds come from?" asked Mu Shanshan.
"Let's invest ourselves, this year's "Party A and Party B" is a big hit at the box office, and next year we will invest in two more movies, and there are other messy incomes, we don't lack that money. Lin Zixuan planned.
"You are confident, Brother Feng is worried all day long, for fear that the film will be lost. Mu Shanshan said with a smile.
"I watched the film, it's very good, I shouldn't be able to lose, I just don't know how much I can earn. Lin Zixuan said confidently, "When the time comes, let's go and see it together, you will know, Brother Feng has a very good comedy life for filming this kind of little people in the capital." ”
Saturday, December 24, is Christmas Eve in the West.
"Party A and Party B" was released at the same time in major cities across the country that night, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan went to the cinema, and Feng Xiaogang and Ge You and others were with them.
At the door of the movie theater, Wang Zhongjun walked over with his lover and a young man.
"Lin Dong, I wish this movie a box office hit. Wang Zhongjun warmly blessed, "This is the eldest of our family, Zhong Lei, you are young, your name is Brother Lin." ”
"Brother Lin, I'm particularly interested in movies, and you have to teach me more in the future. Wang Zhonglei said eagerly.
"We're all good friends, don't be so polite, just come to me if you're interested, let's go in first, it's cold outside." Lin Zixuan took Mu Shanshan's hand and walked into the cinema. (To be continued.) )
