Chapter 129

Soon Wei Ping'an also came back, and the couple began to discuss this matter seriously.

Although singing and acting now belong to art and can be called "masters" in the future, singing can be done in Yanjing, but acting requires going to the Great Northwest, which is too far. At that time, parents must ask for leave to follow, otherwise, who can rest assured about such a young child.

However, this is Xie Dao Jin's work after all, and it is an adaptation of his nephew's novel, which makes both of them inclined to agree.

Lu Xiaoyan affectionately hugged Xizi: "I just said my Xizi is good-looking, following me. Today during the recording, that little girl named Xia Lin kept hugging him and wouldn't let go."

Wei Ping'an pinched his chin: "I think it's more like me."

"The son looks like the mother, what do you know!"

Wei Ping'an hugged Lele: "Then the daughter looks like the father. No wonder people say Lele is better looking than Xizi."

Wei Ming hurriedly interrupted their comparison. He asked: "Xia Lin? Is she the singer who recorded the song today?"

"Right."

"How old is she?"

"Eleven years old, learned to sing from her mother since she was a child. Oh, her mother is a soprano in the Coal Mine Art Troupe."

Wei Ming nodded. That should be her. She hasn't changed back to her original name. I didn't expect this special album of mine to lead to a future diva, and I didn't expect the future diva to like people younger than her now.

He looked at the person involved again: "Xizi, what is your own meaning?"

Xizi was almost excited enough to bounce out of his mother's arms: "I want to go, I want to go!"

Lu Xiaoyan suppressed it and asked: "Then how long will it take to film?"

Wei Ming thought for a while and said: "Actually, the scenes for this role are not many. If filmed intensively, it should be finished in a week, but before filming, he needs to cultivate feelings with the heroine, to have that feeling of mother and son."

So it's hard to say exactly how long it will take.

Wei Ping'an asked: "Who is the heroine?"

Wei Ming: "Gong Xue."

"Who?"

Wei Ming: "It's the sister who was with me at the Summer Palace that day."

Xizi hurriedly said: "I remember, I remember, she is very beautiful!"

Lu Xiaoyan hurriedly turned out the photo and pointed: "Her!"

Wei Ming nodded, and then the eyes of the couple became playful again.

Lu Xiaoyan asked: "Then will you go to the crew at that time?"

"If I have time, I will definitely go."

Lu Xiaoyan laughed: "That's fine. With you as the brother, I can rest assured."

"Of course, it's not that we just agree. We must first let Xie Dao see Xizi's comprehensive ability." Wei Ming explained.

However, as an old drama bone who has won the Golden Lion Award for drama in the future, Wei Ming has confidence in Wei Xi's acting talent.

"Then when will he see him?" Wei Ping'an asked. "Do we still have to go to Shanghai?"

Wei Ming: "If Xie Dao has no plans to come to Beijing recently, then we really have to go to Shanghai, either before or after the New Year."

Uncle Ping'an and his wife discussed it, so they will go to Shanghai in two days after they finish their work at the end of the year, just as a family trip, and then return to their hometown from Shanghai after finishing.

After confirming this, Wei Ming returned to the dormitory. A-Long was reading the script of "The Legend of the Heavenly Book" written by Wei Ming, and at the same time trying to draw some scene pictures himself. When he visits the Shanghai Animation Er Yingchang, it might be his stepping stone.

Two days ago, Director Wang from the Shanghai Animation Er Yingchang called Wei Ming to inform him that the British side was willing to pay a deposit of 10,000 pounds after seeing Wei Ming's original work and illustrations.

This made the whole Shanghai Animation Er Yingchang very excited. The cooperation has moved a big step forward. Wang Bairong told Wei Ming this good news and also urged him to get the script out quickly.

Another good news is that the Shanghai Animation Er Yingchang has decided to make "If I Were Wu Song" into a puppet film, and let Wei Ming think about this after he is busy with "The Legend of the Heavenly Book."

Plus the Beijing Er Yingchang's "Heroes Come from Youth," which means Wei Ming now has two long and one short scripts in his hands, adding up to another few thousand yuan of income. This is almost a ten-thousand-yuan household.

At the current stage, writing scripts is indeed faster than novels. Wei Ming estimates that it should be all done within the first month of the lunar year, and then he will focus on writing the long novel he has been preparing for a long time.

Writing scripts is indeed profitable now, but it's a one-off deal, while novels, once written well, will be a source of money in the future.

He has already discussed with the People's Literature Publishing House that after "Spring of the Sheep-Herding Class," Wei Ming's first collection of short and medium novels will be published by them, and the previous novels will all be included.

With the classic degree of these few articles, plus the promotional effect of film and television, he believes that this book will definitely continue to sell well after the royalty system comes out.

The next day, Wei Ming and Liu Rulong were ready to catch the bus to the station early in the morning.

Qiao Feng paced back and forth in the dormitory: "How many days has it been? Those two boys haven't come back yet. They wouldn't have made a lot of money and didn't want to work, right!"

Wei Ming laughed: "That shouldn't be the case. They aren't married yet. Now mothers-in-law value work. Even if they resign, they have to wait until they get their wives."

Just as he was talking, he heard the noisy and lively sound from above.

Wei Ming pricked up his ears: "Look, aren't they back?"

Soon Biaozi was the first to push the door in, with gauze wrapped around his head, obviously injured quite heavily.

Several people were startled, Wei Ming exclaimed: "Yanzi's hand is too cruel!"

Biaozi shook his head: "It wasn't Yanzi who hit me, she didn't hit me."

"Then you didn't kiss her lips?" Biaozi said shyly: "I kissed her, she was furious, and bit a tooth mark on my wrist."

He also exposed his sleeve to show everyone.

Wei Ming was sincerely happy for him, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Then you kid made it!"

"Then what is this?" Brother Feng pointed to his head.

At this time, Mei Wenhua also came down, and closed the door as soon as he came in. He saw one of his arms hanging. Is this arm broken?

Wei Ming looked at these two defeated roosters.

"Did you encounter something in the south? Was your money robbed or your goods robbed?" he asked seriously.

The two shook their heads. Mei Wenhua explained: "Someone in our carriage was found by the train police to have brought goods from the south, saying it was speculation and profiteering, and they were all going to be confiscated and locked up. We were scared to death when we heard it. At first, we wanted to avoid the train police, but later we couldn't avoid it. We saw that the train wasn't fast, so we simply jumped off the train with our luggage."

Good guy, it turns out they jumped off the train!

Brother Feng scolded severely: "You two can't want money and not life. If something happens, what do you want so much money for?"

Wei Ming asked again: "What about the goods?"

Mei Wenhua sighed: "The place where we jumped off the train was a village, so we sold them cheaply on the spot. We didn't earn much."

!

Biaozi added: "Then we went to the county hospital and spent a lot. Sigh, this time it was all in vain."

Wei Ming comforted: "It's okay, at least you came back intact, the capital wasn't lost, and you earned some last time."

Mei Wenhua looked at Liu Rulong: "Now that I have been with the Cantonese for a long time, I feel that not making money is losing money."

Liu Rulong showed an awkward but polite smile.

Wei Ming: "Alright, you guys go back and review why you failed this time, and try not to make mistakes next time. A-Long and I are going to catch the train first."

"Wait a minute," Biaozi pulled Wei Ming, with a flattering face, "Brother Ming, how can I see Yanzi with this bear look? I want to tell her that I made money this time too. Can you, can you..."

"No," Wei Ming put his arm on Biaozi's shoulder and said seriously, "Let me teach you one more thing as an experienced person. You must be honest with your partner, otherwise, you will have to use countless lies to round up one lie. So bravely tell Yanzi what happened this time. If she dislikes you because of this, then she is not worth your heart and lungs."

Biaozi reminisced about these words, and then nodded.

"Wait a minute." Mei Wenhua also called him.

"What's wrong again? We are going to miss the train."

Mei Wenhua took out a letter: "Didn't you ask us to deliver a letter? This is the reply they gave you."

After Wei Ming took it, he didn't even look at it: "They couldn't wait and called two days ago, and we have talked about it."

Wei Ming asked them to use the recorded audio source directly and record and sell it under the album name "Spring of the Sheep-Herding Class."

As for the money, Wei Ming can probably get about 100 yuan.

"Is it okay this time? Then we are leaving. Also, if there is a letter for me, you must help me keep it well, especially... letters from overseas."

When Wei Ming and the others left Yanjing to return to their hometown, Zhu Lin, far away in Yunnan, just received a package.

They have officially started filming. Although her scenes are not many, Zhu Lin will set off with the crew every time. Everything is too interesting for her, it's just that it's not very interesting when she NG.

When returning to the local hotel from that primeval forest, the crew staff stopped her.

"Comrade Zhu Lin, your package, mailed from Yanjing."

The heroine of the movie, Na Renhua, laughed: "Sister Zhu Lin, it's your partner, right!"

She is an actor from the Xi'an Er Yingchang, 10 years younger than Zhu Lin, only 18 this year. Recently, she was fooled by Teacher Ma and is preparing to take the entrance exam for the Beijing Film Academy's acting department.

Zhu Lin took it and saw that it was mailed from Peking University. She was shocked. The only person she could think of was Wei Ming, but how did that kid know she was here?

"Not a partner, a very interesting little friend." Zhu Lin didn't push it to her partner. She hugged the package and returned to the room. Her roommate hadn't returned yet. She hurriedly opened it, but inside, besides Wei Ming's letter, there were actually several tapes, the same as the tapes Wei Ming sold to her before.

He actually has so many!

Zhu Lin hurriedly opened the letter again.

"Surprise, surprise." Wei Ming asked proudly first.

Zhu Lin snorted and continued to read. He didn't reveal how he knew the address, nor did he mention his partner, but told her which singer these tapes were from, which song was better, and what the lyrics meant.

Humph, I didn't say anything I wanted to know. This is forcing me to reply to him.

Zhu Lin thought for a while and took out a stack of letter paper. She had already written letters to her parents and partner before.

When Zhu Lin was writing the letter, at the same time in Hong Kong.

In the small Zhou's Department Store, 13-year-old Zhou Huimin was helping to watch the store. She was already on holiday.

Just as she was flipping through magazines in boredom, the postman suddenly stopped outside the store, "There is a letter, please receive it."

Zhou Huimin's spirit was lifted. When she saw that the return address was the mainland, she was even more ecstatic.

After her mother came back, she was about to go out immediately.

"A-Min, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to deliver a letter to Uncle Ghost!"
