1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 737: Chinese movies have a long way to go!

Sister Sun has been staying at Lin Weimin's house for almost four years. Everyone can see that Sister Sun doesn't want to leave.

Whether it's salary or benefits, it's hard to find a family as good as Lin Weimin's family in Yanjing.

Unfortunately, the reality is so helpless.

The daughter-in-law's parents have not yet retired, and both the son and daughter-in-law have to work. Without personal care, life for the young couple will be extremely difficult in the future.

Lin Weimin did not let Sister Sun stay until the end of the month. Instead, two days after Sister Sun told her, he asked Zhou Jun to pick her up. The salary was paid until the end of the month as he had said in advance.

Zhou Jun came into the hospital to pick up his mother, looking a little embarrassed.

Sister Sun had a lot of luggage, and a lot of it was given to her by Tao Huimin. Tao Huimin asked Zhou Jun, "How are you leaving?"

"Teacher Tao, let's take the bus."

Tao Huimin said: "I'd better send you away, there are a lot of things."

Not allowing Sister Sun and her son to refuse, Tao Huimin got into the car, and Zhou Jun had no choice but to put everything in the trunk.

The car started and drove towards Zhou Jun's house. Tao Huimin chatted with Sister Sun and her son while driving.

Zhou Jun looked normal, but Sister Sun's mood was a little depressed.

When Zhou Jun arrived at the place and took down the things, Sister Sun had already sorted out her emotions.

Tao Huimin thought of what Lin Weimin said to her, hesitated for a long time and finally said nothing.

Although Sister Sun has been at home for almost four years and is as close as a family, it is not a family after all. Outsiders cannot intervene in other people's family affairs.

Sister Sun resigned, leaving Sister Qin as a nanny in the family. It stands to reason that now that the little bean bag is getting bigger, a nanny can actually be used.

But instead of working with two people, it was now done by one person, which meant that the workload increased in disguise. Tao Huimin and Lin Weimin discussed it and asked Li Guangfu to help find a nanny.

In the past two years, Li Guangfu's business has expanded again. Home decoration companies, agency companies, and employment agencies have become bigger and bigger. Although each industry is not a leading industry, with the integration of resources, they actually complement each other. The tendency to develop towards group companies.

As his net worth expanded rapidly, Li Guangfu became more and more low-key. The Daifa he drove for many years was finally replaced by a Volkswagen Santana worth 20 yuan last year.

Santana stopped at the door of Shizhu, and Lin Weimin joked: "Boss Li is becoming more and more low-key."

"When it comes to being low-key, how can I compare with you, old man!"

As soon as they met, Li Guangfu showed his symbolic smile, which made people feel good.

"Don't give it away in person in the future, it makes me feel embarrassed." Lin Weimin warned.

"Look at what you said, I'm not doing this for you. The main reason is that I'm afraid that the people under my command will be ignorant and give them a reason."

The new nanny's surname is Qian. She is in her early forties. She is still from a suburban county near Yanjing. She has a close relationship with Li Guangfu through his seven aunts and eight aunts. In his words, "Knowing the basics will make you feel at ease."

"Thanks for your hard work!"

After Li Guangfu introduced the new nanny, Sister Qian, Lin Weimin patted him on the shoulder affectionately.

"You're welcome. It's Xiao Li's honor to serve you!" Li Guangfu said a wisecrack.

Tao Huimin took the new nanny Sister Qian to get familiar with the situation at home, while Lin Weimin chatted with Li Guangfu.

When Li Guangfu was about to retire, Li Guangfu attended the retirement banquet. He missed the days of acting in Renyi very much while talking. At that time, everyone joked that he should return to Renyi to act.

Last year he really went back to acting, either as a protagonist or as a supporting role that only had a few lines and played for two or three minutes.

Li Guangfu said with some emotion that he was playing the male lead in a big drama in the People's Art Theater back then. After so many years, he turned around and played a supporting role.

"It's a bit of a vicissitude of life. I never would have thought that I would start a business and acting would become a hobby."

Lin Weimin joked: "You don't blame me for ruining your Mr. Li's acting dream, do you?"

"Zhu Chongba only missed the pearl, emerald and white jade soup when he became emperor. If he were still the beggar, it would be leftover cabbage and tofu soup."

The most admirable thing about Li Guangfu is his always sober and open-minded attitude towards life. Now, for him, acting is just fun and enjoying life. He knows that if he returns to Renyi and earns hundreds of dollars, He couldn't adapt to the meager income.

"By the way, I heard that you are currently working on a TV series?" Li Guangfu asked.

Lin Weimin looked surprised, "Where did you know that?"

"Hey! Yanjing is such a big place."

"What's the matter? Boss Li wants to give you a big compliment?"

"Don't make fun of me. I have some spare money and want to make some investments. In addition, I can advertise the companies I have."

Lin Weimin looked at Li Guangfu. At this moment, Li Guangfu was no longer the "little brother" in his eyes. Isn't this the best (da) gold (yuan) master (zhong)?

"Aren't you afraid of losing money?" Lin Weimin asked.

"Look what you said, I will follow you and I will be happy to lose money! Besides..." Li Guangfu said this with a thief's joy, "How can you lose money in any business you handle?"

Lin Weimin also laughed, "Ours is a copyright operation. You pay more, but you don't necessarily have much say."

"Why do I need a voice? Just make money!"

"Okay. With your help, Boss Li, our copyright operation is half done." Lin Weimin smiled.

He didn't expect to get a surprise from Li Guangfu today.

"Then I'll set up a film and television company later, and I'll make a living with you."

"That's the opposite of what I say. We should be relying on you to show your respect!"

The two talked and laughed and agreed on the matter.

Throughout the whole process, Li Guangfu never discussed the amount and share of the investment, and his conversation became more and more like a big boss.

After Li Guangfu left, the new sister Qian also had almost all the things she was familiar with at home, and the rest was left to the old man Sister Qin to take care of her.

Today is the weekend. After dinner, Tao Huimin suggested going to a movie. "I heard that American movies are being shown over there in Haidian. They're really good!"

"I'm going! I'm going!"

Before Lin Weimin could speak, Xiaodoubao was the first to express his support for his mother's decision.Although she can't understand movies, she likes to join in the fun.

"Your mother never said to take you!"

After Lin Weimin said these words, Xiaodou Bao's eyes were filled with tears. He looked at his mother pitifully, as if he would start crying if he disagreed with her.

Tao Huimin frowned and glared at Lin Weimin, "Why are you teasing her?"

Then he said to his daughter kindly: "Let's go see a movie together, okay?"

The tears in Xiaodoubao's eyes flowed back in an instant, two dimples appeared on his face, he clapped his hands excitedly, and the hair on his head was dangling.

"Watching a movie! Watching a movie!"

The American movie being shown in the cinema in the HD area is "The Fugitive".

On August 8, the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television issued Document No. 1: Starting from 384, China Film Company will import ten good films every year in an internationally accepted split-account distribution method that basically reflect the world's outstanding civilizational achievements and contemporary film art and technological achievements.

Logically speaking, international split films should only begin to enter the country in January 95, but China Film Company took the lead in contacting many giant film companies including Xiangjiang Golden Harvest and Warner Bros. in the United States, planning to conduct pilot projects.

Therefore, in October this year, "The Fugitive" became the first Hollywood blockbuster introduced to China.

Because it was introduced on a pilot basis, "The Fugitive" was not screened on a large scale across the country. The screening city was limited to Yanjing.

But the process was not smooth. China Film's rash introduction of Hollywood films aroused strong concerns from distribution companies across the country. Yanjing Film Company even directly refused to screen "The Fugitive" in the capital.

China Film had no choice but to bypass Yanjing Film Company and hand over the film to HD Zone Film Company for screening.

Finally, HD District Film Company resisted pressure from Yanjing Film Company and screened "The Fugitive" in 13 theaters in the district.

Once the movie was released, it was strongly sought after by the citizens of Yanjing.

If you look at the visual effects of "The Fugitive" from the perspective of later generations, it may not even be considered an entry-level blockbuster.

But in the 90s, some people in China didn't even know what special effects were, and would be shocked when they saw a Hong Kong movie, let alone a Hollywood movie with explosive visual effects.

The theater where Lin Weimin took his wife and daughter to watch a movie was the Workers' Cultural Palace in the HD District. When they arrived at the Cultural Palace, there was a long queue at the ticket office, all of them people buying tickets for "The Fugitive" movie.

Needless to say, by the time Lin Weimin arrived in line, the movie tickets would have been gone.

Lin Weimin didn't panic at all. He stood guard at the door of the screening room and shouted "ten yuan" to collect the tickets. Immediately, someone came forward to sell tickets.

I spent 30 yuan to buy three movie tickets, which was very luxurious. Tao Huimin even complained about it.

"Can't you come early tomorrow to buy tickets?"

Teacher Lin exclaimed: "I have hundreds of thousands of people per minute, and if you ask me to queue up to buy tickets, that is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of money and life!"

"No formality!"

The couple entered the screening room while joking. After a while, the screening room was full of seats.

"This movie is so popular, so many people are watching it." Tao Huimin sighed.

"It's fresh and has good visual effects."

After a while, the movie started to show, and the subtitles at the beginning were very long, and they played for more than ten minutes.

Only the audiences of this era have the patience to watch it to the end. In future generations, audiences would have stopped watching it long ago.

If "The Fugitive" is classified according to its classification, it should be classified as an action-adventure film. It has various thrilling scenes and the audience in the screening hall exclaimed repeatedly during the screening of the film.

Even Lin Weimin, a person who has been baptized by the visual wonders of later generations, has to lament that Hollywood was able to create such realistic visual effects in the early 90s. Hollywood is indeed awesome.

"what!"

Lin Weimin was sitting on one side of his daughter Xiaodoubao, and on the other was Tao Huimin. The scene in the film where Harrison Ford's prison car collided with a train was very impactful. The wife and daughter caught Lin Weimin from both sides.

Xiaodoubao was so frightened by the scenes in the movie that she crawled into Lin Weimin's arms. Lin Weimin held her, and she couldn't help but secretly watch the movie scenes through her fingers.

Although she was young and didn't understand what the movie was about, the pictures were very attractive.

The 130-minute movie finally ended, and all the viewers were relieved. The past 130 minutes, their spirits and visions were like riding a long roller coaster, full of all kinds of thrilling and exciting unforgettable scenes, which completely refreshed their minds. Many people have experienced watching movies for several years, ten years or even decades.

It turns out that movies can still be made like this?

Lin Weimin walked out holding the bean bag with one hand, and Tao Huimin walked on his right.

"No wonder everyone likes to watch them. Hollywood movies are really good!" Tao Huimin said.

"It looks really good, especially on the big screen, where the advantages of special effects are maximized."

He discussed it with his wife for a while, and then asked his daughter, "Doubao, is the movie good?"

Xiaodoubao shook her head hurriedly. She said nothing, but her expression told Lin Weimin.

The movie is so scary!

"Then you won't watch it anymore?" Lin Weimin asked.

Xiaodou Bao hesitated for a moment, "Dad, you can hold me and watch from now on."

Lin Weimin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. At such a young age, how could he feel so good and fun-loving?

Then, he became melancholy again and felt that the horror of Hollywood movies was not only due to its visual spectacle, but also its appeal to people of all ages.

Faced with such an opponent, Chinese films, at least current Chinese films, are far from being a match for the other party.

Chinese movies have a long way to go!
