1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 547 When Did You Get So Awesome?

The special rectification campaign against domestic book piracy has been carried out nationwide for a month, and the momentum is huge.

At the beginning of July, several ministries and commissions involved in this matter once again held a press conference in Beijing, announcing the results of this month's special rectification campaign to the mass media.

65 pirated printing dens were destroyed nationwide, more than 690 million pirated books were investigated and dealt with, the amount involved was as high as 1900 million, and 372 criminal suspects were arrested.

The first special rectification action against piracy in the history of New China is undoubtedly very brilliant in terms of results. It has greatly dealt a blow to domestic piracy criminals who have become more and more arrogant since the 80s, and it is also the one that has suffered the most damage from piracy. China's domestic publishing industry recovered from major losses.

Within a few days after the special rectification action report meeting, the media all over the country widely reported the results of this crackdown on piracy, and the publishing industry and the literary and art circles even expressed their voices, singing praises for the joint action of several ministries and commissions.

This action can be regarded as a breath of anger for the big guy.

When the news reports from the outside world were overwhelming, a gossip spread in the domestic piracy industry, which was like a mourning concubine.

The reason why the higher-ups crack down heavily on pirated editions this time is that the great writer Lin Weimin bought a pirated book under his name on a street stall, and was furious at the time, and went directly to Zhongnan Hai to find the Deputy Prime Minister to sue. , so there was such a big move.

Many criminals engaged in the piracy industry were furious when they heard this gossip.

They are not angry with the forest for the people, after all, they are the righteous and the sufferer, and they are angry with that ignorant colleague.

If you print a pirated version, you will print a pirated version. What kind of counterfeit book are you doing?Piracy so much money is not enough for you to earn?crazy for money?
It's all right now, I have annoyed the rightful owner.Just a word from the above, the entire industry has suffered a blow that is almost no less than that of a nuclear bomb. This wave of special rectification activities has not slowed down the underground piracy activities across the country for a year or so.

Isn't this delaying the big guys from making money?

Give birth to a son without an ass hole!
The pirated booksellers who were sent in not only had to step on the sewing machines, but also had to bear the vicious curses from their colleagues.

At the same time, these surviving pirated booksellers also reached a tacit unspoken rule.

In the future, no one can steal Lin Weimin's books if he steals anyone's books.

I can't afford it!

Entering July, "Not One Less" has been on sale for a week.

On the morning of the weekend, Lin Weimin ran to the Chinese bookstore near Dengshikou near his home with nothing to do, thinking about buying a few books, and checking the sales of "Not One Less" by the way.

After staying in the bookstore for more than an hour, the sales of the novel were gratifying, and Lin Weimin returned satisfied.

On the way back, I came across a bookstall, looked through it, and was even more satisfied.

They are all books in the publishing house's inventory, and there are no pirated copies.

It seems that the effect of cracking down on piracy this time is really great, but it is a pity that this kind of achievement will be revived again in a short time, unless the government really cracks down on it.

Seeing such results, Lin Weimin was already very satisfied.

"Hey, I said, do you want to buy it or not?"

Lin Weimin searched for a long time but couldn't find a book. The book stall owner got impatient, so he bought a book and left.

When I got back to the door, I saw Wang Shuo squatting at the door, with a familiar face beside him.

"How did you two get together?"

Lin Weimin's tone aroused Wang Shuo's rebellion in an instant, "I don't care about you!"

"Virtue!"

Lin Weimin cursed, opened the courtyard door, and let the two of them enter.

Jiang Wen looked around the yard, "Mr. Lin, your environment is elegant, and this yard is really bright."

After not seeing each other for several years, Jiang Wen didn't feel unfamiliar at all.

After pouring a cup of tea for the two of them, Lin Weimin asked, "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Jiang Wen didn't know Lin Weimin well. Seeing him asking such a question, he didn't have the nerve to say it directly, but looked at Wang Shuo.

Both Wang Shuo and Jiang Wen were born in the army compound, both in Yanjing, and they have been on good terms for the past few years.

Wang Shuo opened his mouth and said, "Jiang Wen wants to be a director and plans to adapt my piece "Ferocious Animals"."

"Want to be a director?"

Lin Weimin looked at Jiang Wen, and he couldn't help showing a bit of embarrassment on his rough face, "Mr. Lin, don't look at me like that, I graduated from the Drama Academy anyway. You forgot, I once directed you What about "Farewell My Concubine"!"

The absence of "Red Sorghum" and "Ben Ming Nian" had little impact on Jiang Wen's film career.

After performing Xie Jin's "Furong Town" in 86, he became famous in one fell swoop.

In 87, he starred in the Sino-French co-produced film "Tears in a Sedan Chair", which was directed by the famous French director Jacques Dorfman. , he has been filming Tian Zhuangzhuang's movie "The Great Eunuch Li Lianying".

For several years in a row, he has acted as the lead actor in the films of famous directors. Among the new generation of male actors in China, Jiang Wen is still very good at playing.

"Don't forget!"

Lin Weimin said something, then looked at Wang Shuo, "He makes movies, why do you want me?"

"You're a star in the film industry, who else can I look for if I don't want you?"

Lin Weimin was surprised and didn't know where he said this.

Jiang Wen showed a flattering look on his face, and asked, "Mr. Lin, I heard that you are very familiar with Columbia Corporation in the United States."

"how do you know?"

Jiang Wen said with a smile: "We are also in the film industry anyway. Isn't "The Last Emperor" released by Columbia? And your "Untouchable", isn't it also produced and distributed by Columbia? The global box office has broken It's [-] million meters, how can we not know!"

"Since you know, you should also know that I'm just writing a script, and I can't talk about friendship with others."

Jiang Wendao: "Mr. Lin, you too underestimated your own influence..."

A few years ago, Lin Weimin's reputation in the domestic film circle was not good, and the reason was naturally because of the directors who came to him and wanted to cooperate.

This group of people approached Lin Weimin to cooperate, and when they heard Lin Weimin say that the script had to be approved by him, it was fine if they didn't cooperate.

For a screenwriter who wants to be a director, it's the greatest joke in the world!

Over the years, Lin Weimin has only cooperated with the domestic film industry with Zhang Yimou, and he has also made Zhang Yimou single-handedly. In addition, works such as "Lover", "The Last Emperor", and "Untouchable" have continued to achieve success abroad.

Although Lin Weimin is not in the domestic film circle, his name has gradually become a legend in the domestic film circle.

"Director Zhang was made famous by you. I want to be a director, and the first thing I think of is to ask you for help!"

Jiang Wen put a high hat on Lin Weimin and Lin Weimin said: "You and Xiaoqing are still together, right? She should be able to help you, why bother to seek me far away?"

Jiang Wen's first movie in later generations was an adaptation of Wang Shuo's "Fresh Animals", and his girlfriend Liu Xiaoqing brought the investment for this movie. It stands to reason that Jiang Wen and Liu Xiaoqing should have a good relationship at this time, and Lin Weimin is very happy. Curious why he didn't look for Liu Xiaoqing, but came to look for himself.

Jiang Wen was a little embarrassed when he heard this, Wang Shuo said: "You really can't open any pot and carry it!"

"Don't be surprised, I'm just curious."

Lin Weimin said something without sincerity.

His values ​​are very simple, no matter how good the relationship between these two people is, the moral flaws cannot be concealed, so Lin Weimin mentioned it without any scruples.

"Yes, let me tell him!" Seeing Jiang Wen's perplexed face, Wang Shuo said.

Jiang Wen and Liu Xiaoqing fell in love with each other when they filmed "Furong Town" in 87. At that time, Liu Xiaoqing was a married woman, and they were caught by Liu Xiaoqing's husband. This made the relationship between the husband and wife exist in name only.

In the following time, Liu Xiaoqing and Jiang Wen were almost in a semi-public relationship. People around them and the literary and art circles were very clear about their situation, and the media also reported it, but the two never admitted it.

This year, Liu Xiaoqing officially ended his previous marriage, and this is the fourth year they have been together.

Jiang Wen wants to be a director and make movies, of course the best resource is Liu Xiaoqing, his girlfriend. Liu Xiaoqing starred in "The Curtain" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace" in the early 80s. Movies are not difficult.

But that's exactly where the problem lies.

Jiang Wenwen thought that Liu Xiaoqing could disclose their relationship after divorce, but Liu Xiaoqing disagreed.

Liu Xiaoqing is eight years older than Jiang Wen, became famous earlier than him, and is far more famous than him. Before the appearance of Gong Li, a resource guy who is against the sky, Liu Xiaoqing was the veritable No. [-] actress in China. He has more prestige, and naturally has more scruples than him.

The two had an awkward quarrel because of this, and asking Jiang Wen to ask Liu Xiaoqing for help in making a movie at this time was tantamount to putting another shot in his fragile self-esteem.

After Wang Shuo finished speaking, Lin Weimin nodded clearly, "Understood!"

Jiang Wenman looked at Lin Weimin expectantly, "Mr. Lin, I think I still have some talent in film. If you cultivate it with snacks, maybe I will be the next Zhang Yimou."

Lin Weimin joked, "This doesn't suit your style. What Zhang Yimou is second to, Jiang Wen is the first!"

"Don't be ashamed of me. I haven't even directed a single movie. How dare I say such a thing." Jiang Wen said shyly.

Wang Shuo helped and said: "Don't beat us up, I brought my little brother here to ask you for help today, you can't let me lose face directly, right? Dude, I won't be able to hang out in the circle in the future !"

"Don't kidnap me morally!"

Despite what he said, Lin Weimin's attitude became serious. After hesitating for a moment, he said to the two: "I really don't care much about movies. I'll help you find out later, it may not be successful."

Lin Weimin's words were very conservative, but Jiang Wen was ecstatic when he heard the words, "Thank you so much, Teacher Lin!"

Wang Shuo also laughed, and said to Lin Weimin, "Weimin, thank you so much."

Lin Weimin felt a little helpless, did I not express clearly?
"It's just asking for you, and I didn't say it can be done." He couldn't help but said.

Jiang Wen's young but vicissitudes face is full of smiles, "Mr. Lin, you just like to be modest. If you ask for investment, isn't that just a matter of words?"

Lin Weimin suspected that Jiang Wen was pouring ecstasy soup on him. He looked at Wang Shuo and saw that Wang Shuo also had such an expression on his face, and he was full of puzzlement.

When did I become so awesome in your hearts?

　It got up.
