Chapter 217: The War of Circulation Has Begun

"These days, the people in our supplement department are actively working at work."

Jiang Hai smiled, of course he knew the reason: "How do you say this?" ”

"Do you want to," Cai Wensheng said with a smile: "Which newspaper is like us, you can see stars every day, and there are several." ”

"It's not that exaggerated."

"It's not an exaggeration at all, Pan Hong came a few times two days ago."

"She came to Jiang Shan to discuss the radio drama "Latent", Jiang Hai explained: "It has nothing to do with our newspaper!" ”

"It doesn't matter what the reason is, just come to our newspaper office anyway," Speaking of this, Cai Wensheng shook the manuscript in his hand:

"Chen Peisi's manuscript is sure to be published tomorrow, right? I'll talk to him when I'll see him later. ”

"No problem, that's it."

Advertising section on the first floor of the newspaper office.

Liu Xiaoqing hung up the phone excitedly: "Shun is not so smooth." ”

Chen Peisi asked, "The matter of transfer has been resolved?" ”

Jiang Shan guessed randomly: "Yanying Studio agreed to help you solve the Yanjing account?" ”

"How do you know?" Liu Xiaoqing glared in surprise and said.

Chen Peisi was also shocked: "Really agreed?" ”

"Well," Liu Xiaoqing's tears of happiness fell: "Just wait for me to go back to go through the handover procedures!" ”

When Jiang Shan heard this, he hurriedly said: "This matter can't be delayed, I'll help you contact the train ticket immediately!" ”

"Wait another day," Liu Xiaoqing hesitated for a while:

"Yesterday, when I was having fun at Pujiang Film Factory, I met with screenwriter Xie Hong, who happened to have a script in his hand and asked me if I would like to play the heroine."

"It's a good thing," Jiang Shan said, sipping melon seeds, "yes, Beth." ”

"I also think it's a good thing," Chen Peisi said while snorting, without delaying anything: "But Ren Xiaoqing is not very happy." ”

Even the screenwriter has seen it, Jiang Shan looked at the two of them with a smile, it seems that they have not been idle in the past two days.

"Sister Xiaoqing," Jiang Shan said curiously: "Why don't you want to?" ”

"That's a martial arts movie," Liu Xiaoqing frowned, "Do you know what a martial arts movie is?" ”

"Is it similar to martial arts?"

"Actually, I don't know very well, so I don't want to."

"What's the name of this movie?"

In Jiangshan's impression, except for "Shaolin Temple", which will start filming next year, I really can't remember any films.

"The specific name has not yet been decided," Chen Peisi explained for her, "It is said that it has something to do with the Leshan Giant Buddha in Sichuan Province." ”

"Oh," Jiang Shan nodded: "Speaking of this Leshan Giant Buddha, I haven't been there yet." ”

"I haven't been there either."

"Me too."

"You are an actor in the Chengdu Repertory Theatre," Jiang Shan couldn't believe it: "You haven't been to Leshan?" ”

"What's so strange about this, haven't you never been to Nanjing?"

Liu Xiaoqing's words choked Jiangshan hoarsely: "I can't say you, but you really don't want to act?" ”

Liu Xiaoqing thought about it carefully: "Forget it, I'm going to report to Yanying soon, so don't toss around." ”

Chen Peisi threw Jiang Shan a cigarette and agreed: "Originally, let's go back and get down to business first!" ”

Jiang Shan, who was lighting a cigarette, nodded, and didn't say anything more!

Before, I wasn't very impressed.

When I heard Liu Xiaoqing mention the Leshan Giant Buddha, I remembered what was going on.

In the spring of 1979, screenwriter Xie Hong, who had just finished writing the script "White Lotus" for Pujiang Cinema, deliberately went to Leshan to play.

In the mountain behind the Big Buddha Scenic Area, a stone tablet recording the story of the Big Buddha attracted him.

From here, he learned the touching story of the monk Haitong who gouged out his eyes to protect the Buddha's wealth.

After that, in order to fully understand the Leshan Giant Buddha, he took a small book and visited every corner of Leshan.

He recorded everything he saw and heard.

After that, he returned to the screenwriting building of Pujiang Film Factory.

In 1979, in order to collect excellent film scripts, the director of Pujiang Film Factory specially vacated a small two-story building for the majority of screenwriters.

In this building, many excellent scripts have been created, including the movie "Lushan Love".

It was also in this building that Xie Hong wrote the movie script for "The Mysterious Buddha".

When the script was just completed, it was when the movies "Little Flower" and "Look at This Family" were on the air.

After watching Liu Xiaoqing's excellent performance, Editor Xie immediately proposed to the film studio that Liu Xiaoqing should play the heroine.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shan immediately said to Liu Xiaoqing: "You go to see the editor tomorrow, just to tell him that you refuse to appear in this movie?" ”

"That's right," Liu Xiaoqing nodded: "Since it's been decided, you have to tell someone!" ”

"Don't," Jiang Shan hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't worry about this in advance, what should you do first!" ”

"That's not good," Chen Peisi said, "Don't delay people filming for a while." ”

"How can it be so fast," Jiang Shan continued to persuade: "Wait a few days first, if you ask, just say that you are going through the transfer procedures, and you will consider it when you are free." ”

"Is that okay?" Liu Xiaoqing blinked with a pair of big eyes, she was more innocent than Chen Peisi at this time.

"You're right to believe me," Jiang Shan said firmly: "But if it's an opportunity, don't turn it down easily!" ”

"That'...... Then I'll listen to you. ”

If Jiang Shan is not mistaken.

At a later film exchange meeting, this "Mysterious Buddha" was taken by Wang Yang, the director of Yanying Studio, at a glance.

Just like poaching Liu Xiaoqing now, Director Wang also tried his best to take the movie script of "The Mysterious Buddha" from Pujiang Film Factory.

It's just that this time, he also reluctantly gave up, and the movie script "Midnight", which had long been targeted by Pu Ying.

At this moment, Jiang Shan raised his hand and looked at his watch: "There will be a pre-editor meeting in the newspaper office, you can also go and listen to it together, and after listening to it, you will understand why I said so!" ”

"Could this be something to listen to?"

"Of course you can't just listen to it, but you two are not outsiders."

"Huh,"

On the way to the editor-in-chief's office, Chen Peisi has been walking by Jiangshan's side:

"Jiangshan, what do I say about that? Soon, everyone is leaving, and I haven't seen the article yet! ”

"You didn't ask Lao Cai?"

"To tell you the truth, I've been to him more often than you these days, but he'll make me wait."

"Don't worry, I'll help you ask."

The two muttered all the way, until they walked into the editor-in-chief's room, they were not willing to separate.

"Yo," Rong Bin from the Information Department was happy as soon as he saw Liu Xiaoqing: "Comrade Xiaoqing also came to the meeting today, welcome!" ”

After speaking, he applauded vigorously.

The few people next to them had no choice but to take a few symbolic shots.

Jiang Hai looked at him with disgust, he had seen him for a few days, why was he still so excited.

At this time, Cai Wensheng's eyes also met Chen Peisi: "Comrade Chen Peisi, you have to buy a copy of tomorrow's "Oriental Metropolis Daily" and keep it." ”

"How?" Chen Peisi's eyes suddenly lit up blindly: "Going to be published?" ”

"Hmm!"

"Great," Chen Peisi clapped her hands: "Finally waited for me." ”

"How can one copy be enough," Liu Xiaoqing also said happily for him: "I could ask Jiangshan to send ten newspapers at that time!" ”

"That's right." Chen Peisi, who was at this meeting, had already calculated the number in her heart.

Just when he was happily calculating, Editor-in-Chief Jiang announced a piece of news he had just received:

"That...... Our city's annual advanced news unit is about to start the evaluation again, have you heard about it? ”

Jiang Shan and Rong Bin nodded silently.

"Originally," Cai Wensheng lifted his glasses and said, "Our newspaper is very hopeful of winning this award, but ......"

Jiang Hai blew the tea foam: "I have something to say." ”

"I say there is hope because several columns of our newspaper are deeply loved by readers," Cai Wensheng said directly:

"Especially the serials, there are several in a row that are very exciting."

"That's true," Rong Bin also envied the supplement department: "As for the circulation of our newspaper, which has risen again and again, I don't agree to say that there is no credit for serialization." ”

"Especially the current "Legend of the Condor Heroes", Cai Wensheng said excitedly: "Now there are half of the letters I receive from the masses every day that are related to this. ”

Jiang Shan smiled and nodded: "Say but!" ”

"But ......," Cai Wensheng looked at everyone and said:

"Just yesterday, science fiction writer Ye Yonglie was rated as 'Pujiang City Advanced Science Popularization Worker'.

The leaders at the commendation meeting also specially praised the book "PHS Roaming the Future"! ”

"Is there such a thing?" Editor-in-Chief Rong said strangely: "Why didn't he publish an article to promote it in Pujiang Daily?" ”

"I didn't catch up," Jiang Hai smiled bitterly: "Look at it, I'll see the newspaper tomorrow!" ”

"Yes," Rong Bin shook his head: "This Comrade Ye Yonglie is rated as advanced, and our newspaper is advanced...... But it's hanging. ”

Jiang Hai also thinks like this: "One "Gone with the Wind" and one "PHS", the two serials of "Pujiang Daily" are much higher than in the past. ”

"The readers over there are also crazy," Cai Wensheng said, "The circulation of Pujiang Daily has been catching up with us recently." ”

"These two are really interesting."

"You know what?" Cai Wensheng said: "Next month, Brian, the British science fiction author, will visit us. It is estimated that science fiction will be even more popular by then. ”

Rong Bin also heard about it: "The reprint of "Gone with the Wind" has been sold out again, and "Pujiang Daily" is so happy that it has been praised in the newspaper for two days in a row! ”

"I must praise it," Jiang Shan patted the armrest of the sofa and smiled: "If it were me, I would praise it even more fiercely." ”

"I regret it now," Cai Wensheng looked at him and said, "I said it earlier, let's go find a science fiction article, but you just don't agree." ”

At this moment, the editor-in-chief's office suddenly fell silent.

Everyone's eyes looked at the country as if they were nothing.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is indeed good, but if you add a science fiction on the cusp, maybe their newspaper's honor as an "advanced news unit" will be stable.

What do you mean? Is this a complaint?

Chen Peisi, who was sitting on the side, didn't say a word, but she was anxious for Jiangshan in her heart.

How can you blame the country for this? How can a man have front and back eyes?

Liu Xiaoqing, on the other side, also cried out for Jiangshan in his heart.

But, after all, it is a work meeting of someone else's unit, so how can she interject.

But speaking of which, what is it that Jiang Shan asked her to come with her to listen to things?

"Even now, I wouldn't agree to publish science fiction," Jiang Shan's voice told everyone clearly:

"There is something that everyone should know, just two days ago, the "National Youth Daily" published an article criticizing science fiction."

"National Youth Daily?" Cai Wensheng didn't know anything about this: "What did you say above?" ”

"It's hard to say," Jiang Shan is worried about the other party:

"To sum it up, there are three words: pseudoscience. The most important thing is that one of the authors of the criticism in that article was Ye Yonglie. ”

"What? Pseudoscience. ”

"How can this happen?"

"There's a good show to watch now," Jiang Hai said with a smile without hesitation:

"A publication with a national prefix, if it does not have the above indication, will not criticize a popular writer by name."

Jiang Shan silently gave the boss a look: "It is estimated that the "Pujiang Daily" of this meeting has written several articles praising Ye Yonglie. ”

The book is really good, and Ye Yonglie is even more rare.

It's a pity that the times are not very cooperative.

"I think it's ......," Cai Wensheng analyzed, "and when British science fiction writers come, they may say it differently." ”

In this era, as long as you can get along with foreign countries, the relevant departments in China will give you a lot of face.

In many cases, it is even directly cited as a reference.

"It depends...... So what's going on? "Jiang Shan didn't remember the foreign name for a while.

"Brian."

"Yes, it depends on what this Brian will say when he comes."

According to his recollections, it was Comrade Burian's remarks after his visit to China that made the relevant departments in China more firmly believe:

Ye Yonglie's pseudo-scientific science fiction is a publication that poisons young people.

I remember that not long after, the "People's Daily" also published a special article, which brought out and criticized the newspapers and periodicals that had published "PHS Roaming the World" one by one.

In fact, compared with this article, Mr. Qian's criticism published in the "People's Daily" was the most deadly: science fiction is a bad thing.

"Alas," Jiang Hai sighed and said, "Let's not worry about other people's affairs, I'll talk about something to make everyone happy!" ”

Upon hearing this, several people in the editor-in-chief's room laughed curiously.

"Just this morning, I received a letter of commendation from the National Sports Commission," Jiang Hai slowly took out an envelope:

In the letter, the leaders of the Sports Committee gave a high evaluation to our newspaper for the serialization of martial arts genres.

They also revealed a message that in the next few years, the state will carry out a number of plans to promote martial arts and promote martial arts competitions......"

Jiang Hai's words came into Liu Xiaoqing's head word by word.

In Jiang Hai's voice, she and Chen Peisi slowly looked at Jiangshan together.

And Jiang Shan was smiling and waiting for them to come over.

After seeing Jiang Shan raise his eyebrows at them, Liu Xiaoqing suddenly showed an expression of admiration.

From now on, if there is anything you can't decide, the first person to ask will definitely be Jiangshan.

Coincidentally, Chen Peisi also thought so.

Just as he was checking his eyes, a cheer rang out in the meeting of Pujiang Newspaper.

Just now, the editor-in-chief of Wei Yuanxing, who is full of smiles, has announced a good news to everyone:

"As of yesterday, the circulation of Pujiang Daily has reached a new record of 150,000 copies."

This figure is also the circulation of "Oriental Metropolis Daily" today.

In a round of applause, Wei Yuanxing's eyes slowly fell on the layout of "Gone with the Wind".
