1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 452

Faced with Lin Dan's thanks, Lin Weimin felt a little embarrassed, because Lu Yao's manuscript was written for "Contemporary" after all.

Lin Weimin knew that Lu Yao's descendants passed away in the 90s, but he didn't know much about the inside story.

This time, I also learned the lesson of Lao Guo and made an early prevention, but I didn't expect it to be found out.

It is definitely a good thing to discover the disease early. As long as the treatment is done properly, Lu Yao can naturally avoid the fate of future generations.

"You have to listen to your sister-in-law carefully. Put the manuscript away in advance. Don't worry. We'll talk about it after you recover from your illness." Lin Weimin warned and left after a few words.

Another two days passed, in time for the weekend.

The colleagues in the editorial department mobilized collectively. Everyone had heard about Lu Yao's illness. Now that he is recuperating in Yanjing, it was natural to come and see him.

A group of people came to visit with their things, and Lu Yao and his wife hurriedly let them into the room enthusiastically.

The yard that Lin Weimin provided for Lu Yao's family was very spacious, and after a few chats, they all said that it was very comfortable to live here, and the three of them would go for a walk on the North Sea at night.

In the past two days, under Lin Dan's hard work, Lu Yao's work and rest have returned to normal, and he quit smoking.

When Lin Dan talked about this topic, she was full of complaints, so she often got angry with Lu Yao.

"It's about writing, but he still refuses to listen to me. Now I let him sit for two hours a day, and if he sits for a long time, I will remove the chair."

Working two hours a day is no problem.

"This time, you have to listen to your lover. It is a great blessing for you to discover this disease in time. You must eradicate this disease once and for all, so that you can devote yourself to creating better in the future." Chaoyang exhorted.

He is Lu Yao's bole, and Lu Yao treats him very respectfully, nodding his head vigorously.

Everyone stayed here with Lu Yao for about an hour before taking their leave. Lu Yao and his wife planned to stay everyone for lunch.

But Lu Yao is recuperating now, so everyone wisely didn't stay.

After visiting Lu Yao, Lin Weimin came to Renyi in the afternoon.

Recently, "Untouchable" is in the midst of intensive rehearsal, and it is planned to be staged in August. In addition, "The Man on the Horse" is scheduled to be performed in October.

The voices of the people were too loud, which completely disrupted the performance plan of Renyi this year, but there was no way to do it. The people's voices are still powerful in these years.

In the rerun of "Untouchable", the cast has changed. Li Guangfu, who plays Lin Xiaoding, is now busy working as a contractor.

So every time he talked about this matter, he felt a lot of resentment towards Lin Weimin.

A good actor was tricked by him into being a contractor.

Lose Renyi's face!
After watching the rehearsal results of "Untouchable", he called Lin Weimin over and told him about one thing.

Recently, Renyi received an invitation from Xiangjiang Repertory Theatre, hoping that Renyi can perform "The Ming Dynasty 1566: Jiajing and Hai Rui" in Xiangjiang.

This time Renyi was invited to perform in Xiangjiang, which is inseparable from the popularity of the novel "Da Ming Dynasty 1566" in Xiangjiang.

Some time ago, the novel was listed in Xiangjiang, which immediately aroused public attention and panic buying. .

In just one month, 20 copies of "Da Ming Dynasty 1566" were sold out.

Sanlian Bookstore had to contact Lin Weimin again, and urgently printed 20 more copies to barely cope with the enthusiasm of the people.

The 80s was the golden age for the development of Hong Kong. Every young man wanted to be the second Li Ka-shing. This kind of atmosphere is very realistic and also represents the style of Hong Kong.

These ordinary people are curious about the magic power of "Da Ming Dynasty 1566", which is popular among the merchant class in Xiangjiang.

Coupled with the news that Lin Weimin's works won multiple Tony Awards some time ago, the people of Xiangjiang regard him as a famous writer who is from the mainland but has won many awards overseas, and are more interested in his works.

It was against this background that Renyi was invited by Xiangjiang Repertory Theatre.

Founded in 1977, this drama troupe was invited to perform in the famous British drama "Not to be Played" in 1985, and was invited again this year to perform Du Guowei's "Love in the World" in Yangcheng. It has close ties with China.

"This is a good thing!" Lin Weimin said happily.

So Zhi nodded, "Of course it's a good thing. There are limited places for Xiangjiang performances, and I reserved two for you and Huimin."

"No need. Huimin can't leave if she wants to make a movie. I also have a job. Just let the people in your courtyard go."

Lin Weimin declined Yu Zhi's kindness.

It is a rare thing to go abroad these days, and which unit has such an opportunity, everyone is rushing to go.

So of course he knew that Lin Weimin could go abroad anytime he wanted, but whether he went or not was his problem, and whether he invited him or not was a matter of attitude.

Seeing Lin Weimin's clear refusal, he stopped persuading him and talked about another matter instead.

"Is your Huimin graduating this year? Did you tell me what unit you were assigned to?"

Tao Huimin's status as an opera actor in the Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe was part-time and part-time. Now that she has graduated, she will be assigned and will not stay in the Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe.

It's hard for the teacher to keep thinking about this, Lin Weimin said: "She graduated this year, and she recently set up school and work in Gangzhijiang, and said that she will be assigned to the army drama troupe in Jinling."

"Then you two are going to separate again? Find a way to transfer to our courtyard, anyway, they are all acting in dramas!
You have to agree, and I will explain this matter to you. "

Teacher Yu has spared no effort for Lin Weimin's work, which is of course inseparable from Lin Weimin's contribution to the creation of human art.

A few years ago was the time when there was a severe shortage of talents and lack of good works. For several consecutive years, Lin Weimin, with the efficiency of one drama per year, greatly helped Renyi alleviate the shortage of scripts.

Moreover, with the passage of time, the classic nature of Lin Weimin's works has become more and more prominent. The reruns of "Untouchable" and "Tao Ma Ren" will be reruns. Jiajing and Hai Rui" and other works.

In such a cycle, Lin Weimin's works will exist on the stage of human art for a long time.

This kind of treatment is only available to the three founders of the academy.

But Lin Weimin doesn't even have the establishment for personal art.

Isn't this equivalent to bringing your own [-] big cover to fight devils?
It is precisely because he is not in Renyi, but has been contributing to Renyi, that makes Lin Weimin's position in Renyi aloof. Even those meritorious directors, screenwriters and actors who are 70 or [-] years old respect him very much.

Everyone knows Lin Weimin's contribution to human art. Such a person deserves everyone's respect, regardless of age and seniority.

"Then trouble you."

Lin Weimin did not refuse Shi Zhi's kindness this time.

Tao Huimin was assigned to the army repertory troupe. If he wanted to be transferred to Renyi, he not only needed the help of Renyi, but also the army. He really didn't have many contacts in this regard, so it would be best if he could help.

So Zhi was shocked when he heard his words, "Don't worry, wrap it on me."

Two days later, Tong Zhonggui was a little excited when he went to work.

Today is the day when the eighth issue of "Contemporary" is published, and his "Wives and Concubines in Groups" was published in this issue.

Tong Zhonggui received a manuscript fee of 675 yuan for a manuscript of 15 words, and the standard remuneration was [-] yuan per thousand words.

This price is much higher than when he published his works before.

In terms of remuneration, Lin Weimin's standard for "Contemporary" has always been to keep up with prices.

In recent years, the country has selected the price reform as the breakthrough point of economic system reform, because the price system formed under the planned economic system and unchanged for decades has seriously affected the rational allocation of resources and hindered productivity. The development of the country has reached the point where reform is necessary.

But when the price is released, it can easily become a wild horse that is not so easy to control.

In the past two years, the feelings of ordinary people have been particularly profound.

Food is more expensive, meat is more expensive, rice is more expensive, and clothes are more expensive. These are all about the basic necessities of ordinary people.

Last month, just after the Beidaihe meeting, the gossip about price breakthroughs in Yanjing City had spread widely, touching the sensitive nerves of the common people.

Leaving aside the rumors and gossips in the society, it is an objective fact that the prices of living materials are soaring, and it is also a fact that wages generally do not rise.

What Lin Weimin can do is to make everyone's labor and creation get corresponding returns as much as possible, and the general increase in manuscript fees benefits all authors who contribute to "Contemporary".

It also makes "Contemporary" unique among the many publications in the country. All writers know that the fee for writing articles for "Contemporary" has always been the highest.

Therefore, "Contemporary" has never been short of manuscripts, let alone good ones.

When he was off work, Tong Zhonggui wanted to invite Lin Weimin to dinner. He had just received a manuscript fee of more than 600 yuan, and the novel was published, so he was very happy.

It's okay to eat, but Lin Weimin will definitely not let him pay for it.

Lin Weimin asked Tong Zhonggui what he wanted to eat, he said meat, Lin Weimin smiled, called a few colleagues, and led everyone to the old Baikui in Dongsi.

This is one of the most famous halal restaurants in Yanjing. The most famous one is roasted lamb, that is, roasted whole lamb.

Together with Donglaishun's boiled mutton, barbecue season's roasted mutton, and Yueshengzhai's sauced mutton, it is called the "Four Masters" of Yanjing mutton products.

I ordered a roasted whole lamb, and ordered a few more dishes. They were so sumptuous that everyone didn't wait to eat. Smelling the smell of meat in the shop, their mouths were almost drooling.

Prices have risen sharply in the past two years, everyone is restraining their enjoyment of food and drink, and only when they come out with Lin Weimin can everyone satisfy their hunger.

Usually everyone jokes about it, who doesn't like such a leader!
Chatting while waiting for the food, it was inevitable to mention the soaring prices, and everyone complained.

Colleagues are paid dead wages, and occasionally publish an article in a journal to get some manuscript fees to improve their lives, at most once or twice a year. Compared with many people in society, their income is already considered high.

But facing the current situation, I still have some headaches.

"I really don't know when this price will be stable. If it continues to rise like this, we will even have problems eating with such a dead salary in the future."

"The country will definitely take care of it. These are all temporary difficulties."

Among the people at this table, only Lin Weimin, the "Lin Wanwan", would not worry about these trivial matters of daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Everyone looked at him with envy.

He Qizhi talked about Tong Zhonggui again, "We must be incomparable with Weimin. In fact, a bachelor like Xiaotong is also very good. One person can feed the whole family without hunger, and he also has manuscript fees. Have you saved all your salary?"

Tong Zhonggui was a little embarrassed by his ridicule, "I didn't save much money, and I still have to buy a house!"

Everyone praised Tong Zhonggui for his ambition.

The vast majority of young workers these days are waiting for their units to allocate houses, even if they can buy them, they will not buy them.

Isn't it stupid that you have to spend money to buy a house when the unit can be divided into houses?
Of course Tong Zhonggui is not stupid, he just learned from Lin Weimin and changed his way of thinking and concepts.

According to the style of Guowen Society, when he gets married, he can be allocated a house of [-] to [-] square meters.

Such housing conditions were not what he had hoped for, let alone waiting for so many years.

Why don't you just buy a house yourself, like Mr. Lin's courtyard house, which is uncomfortable to live in?
As for the issue of spending money, he also thinks very openly. If he wants to enjoy a higher standard of living, isn't it reasonable to spend some money?

Besides, Mr. Lin said it all.

The country is becoming more and more open, and the mainstream of the future will be a market-oriented economy. Yanjing is the capital, attracting talents from all over the country. When people from all over the country come here, housing prices will inevitably rise.

Tong Zhonggui felt that what Lin Weimin said was right. The house price in Yanjing would definitely rise. Although he didn't know how much it would rise, since he knew that the rise was a general trend, he had to start early.
