After eating breakfast and chatting for a while, Zhou Comin left, and she had to rush to give piano lessons to primary school students.
"Comet Min is really amazing, relying on self-study, he can get the piano grade 10, and he can also earn living expenses as a piano tutor." Looking at the back of Zhou Comin leaving in a hurry, Liang Yinning said with emotion.
"Hmm." Lin Jing nodded in agreement.
If you don't have extraordinary musical talent, and you are self-disciplined and diligent, you would never be able to do what you are doing in a difficult single-parent family.
"She just said she had two dreams, but unfortunately she didn't say them, but I think at least one of them has something to do with music." Liang Yinning remembered the two dreams that Zhou Comin said and guessed.
For Zhou Comin's two dreams, Lin Jing knew the answer from interviews in later generations.
One is a painter and the other is a singer, and in later generations, she has been very successful.
"Let's go back." Lin Jing said, "Anyway, we have each other's contact information with her, and it is not difficult to find her in the future." β
Zhou Yimin is still in Form 5, and there are still more than two years before graduation, Lin Jing thinks that she is planning to sign her, and she is not in a hurry.
Because although it is said that in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, it is common for artists to have low academic qualifications, but it is always good to read more books.
It's not a good thing to come out into society too early, especially for girls.
"Okay, but my feet seem to be a little swollen again."
"Then go to the hospital and find a doctor first?"
Lin Jing accompanied Liang Yinning and finally did not go to a big hospital, but went to a traditional Chinese medicine clinic specializing in bruises.
In the past, when Dad Lin was still a dragon and tiger martial artist, injuries were commonplace, and as long as he was injured, he would usually come to this clinic to receive treatment from an old Chinese medicine doctor here. Therefore, Lin Jing was clear about the situation in this clinic, and knew that although the old Chinese medicine doctor here did not look like the old fairy of the crane boy Yan Immortal Wind Bone as he imagined, he was just a thin old man, but he was very good at treating bruises.
Liang Yinning was also skeptical of the little old man's first impression, but after receiving some treatment from the old Chinese medicine doctor, and the sprained right leg was no longer swollen and painful, he was immediately convinced.
When Lin Jing and Liang Yinning returned home from the clinic, Mo Ziqi was sitting in the living room drinking tea. And Lin Yan and Lin Si, two brothers and sisters, accompanied him, chatting without a word.
For Lin Jing and Liang Yinning's return, the two siblings were very happy. Lin Jing had already called them the day before yesterday to tell them about camping, so the brother and sister were very excited, and they asked about camping and climbing to see the sunrise.
Finally got rid of the two pestering guys, Lin Jing and Mo Ziqi greeted each other.
"Moda, when did you come, why didn't you notify me?" Liang Yinning sat on the sand and asked, tilting his head sideways.
"Not long after I arrived, I called in the morning, and you weren't there." Mo Ziqi said, and frowned and asked, "What's the matter with your feet?" β
"Yesterday I went to climb Phoenix Mountain to watch the sunrise, and I sprained it when I was about to go down the mountain in the morning?"
"Have you seen a doctor?"
"Nonsense, it looks like I know it before I finish reading it." Liang Yinning said and gently moved her right foot as evidence, and her right foot wiped the bone-beating medicinal wine, which was emitting a faint smell of medicinal wine.
Lin Jing, on the other hand, said hello to Mo Ziqi and went directly to the attic, took a simple bath, and then came down.
"You talk, I'll take a shower too, hey, if you haven't taken a bath for a day, it's like you haven't taken a bath for a year, and you don't feel comfortable all over." Liang Yinning saw Lin Jing coming down, spoke, pestle the "crutch" handed over by Lin Yan, and pedaled up to the attic.
Mo Ziqi usually has something less important, and he mostly contacts her by phone, and he will not look for her, let alone take the initiative to come to the door. This time, I will rush over in such a hurry, there must be something more important.
Thinking of this, Lin Jing lifted the teapot to fill Mo Ziqi's teacup, then poured himself a cup and asked, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting." β
Mo Ziqi thanked him, took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, sat up straight, and said seriously: "There are three main things to come this time. β
"The first thing, the preparatory work for "If the Wine Sells Nothing" has been basically completed, and director Xu Anhua has also decided to take over the directing work of "If the Wine Sells Nothing", which is the cast list, filming location and filming date of the protagonist and main supporting roles that she has drawn up." After Mo Ziqi finished speaking, he handed Lin Jing a copy of the text.
"Since the movie has been handed over to Director Xu, she will be in charge of the relevant work of Director QiΔ, so I won't watch it." Lin Jing waved his hand and said.
As of the second half of this year, she has made four films, including "Crazy Robbery", "Bumping into the Right", "The Story of Hu Yue" and "Running to the Angry Sea".
Whether it involves national political issues, social ethics issues, or emotional issues of vulnerable groups, they all reveal a strong humanistic concern.
It can be said that it is very suitable for her to make a tragic literary film like "If the Wine Sells Nothing".
With Lin Jing's script as the foundation, she may or may not be able to make a better film than the one in her previous life.
Mo Ziqi had expected Lin Jing's attitude, so he didn't say much about this matter and moved on to the second thing.
"The second piece, Mr. Cheng Long's "Plan A", will be officially launched tomorrow, and he invites you to attend the start-up conference."
"I have a class tomorrow and I shouldn't be able to attend, so I'll call him and explain it, and I think he can understand."
From preparation to filming and release, Hong Kong films are known for their short production cycle and fast production, and in the fifties and sixties, there was even a saying that it was seven days fresh. As early as more than a month ago, Lin Jing learned that "Plan A" had been approved, and she couldn't understand why it had been delayed until now to start official filming.
Judging from the current progress, "Plan A" may be the same as "If the Wine Sells Nothing", which will be released during the winter vacation.
However, these two movies are not the same type of movie, so you don't have to worry about such a thing as a crash.
"Well, let's move on to the third thing: at the request of the majority of readers, Bookworm Publishing House hopes that you can hold an on-site signing of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty".
"On-site book signings?" Lin Jing's first impression of the on-site signing meeting was promotion, but with the sales of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", it seems that there is no need for any promotion.
"Yes, the publishing house received letters from half-sacks of readers who had this strong desire."
However, judging from Mo Ziqi's statement, promotion is indeed not a reason to hold an on-site signing meeting. The rest is nothing more than to thank the reader Aiwu and Wu, because he loves "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", so he has a strong interest in the author who wrote this book. Then the so-called on-site signing will no longer be a pure on-site signing meeting.
It's just that Lin Jing remembers an interesting story about Qian Zhongshu.
It is said that an American lady read Qian Zhongshu's book, admired it very much, and wanted to visit. Qian Zhongshu said on the phone: "If you eat an egg and think it's good, why do you need to know the hen that laid the egg?" β
Lin Jing thinks that Qian Zhongshu's approach is very reasonable.
In most cases, the text is only in the reader's fantasy. In fact, the article and the author are often inconsistent. Rather than disappointing the reader, it is better not to give them room for fantasy in the first place. And if the on-site signing meeting is really held, she will definitely be in trouble at that time, and it is likely to reach an unbearable Cheng dΓΉ.
But according to Mo Ziqi, the on-site signing will also have a role, that is, it is used to thank book lovers and readers.
Mo Ziqi's statement also made sense, and Lin Jing hesitated for a while.
(This afternoon, the book began to be strongly promoted, and if there are no accidents, it will be on the shelves on February 1, the second day of the Lunar New Year.) οΌ
