Chapter 460

Wei Ming instructed Lin Dian and the other person: "Once you arrive in Hong Kong, hand the items to Liu Rulong of Madman Comics, and let him help deliver them."

The two thought they were being asked to deliver the goods in person, and were actually somewhat disappointed to hear this; Wei Laoshi was still too formal with them.

Afterwards, Wei Ming went to find Director Yang Jie and learned that the first five episodes had already been produced.

This also included the parts where Gong Xue made a guest appearance, which had been filmed before Wei Ming returned.

Wei Ming also enjoyed Sister Xue's acting and the opening content at CCTV.

The opening theme song was Wei Ming's electronic music style work "Cloud Palace Quick Tune"; he could be considered the number one person in domestic electronic music.

The ending theme song was "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is," and for other incidental music, Wei Ming recommended a musician named Xu Jingqing.

Although Xu Jingqing was no longer responsible for all the music creation for Journey to the West, this was not necessarily a bad thing for Xu Jingqing. With Wei Ming involved, he might be able to effectively protect their rights and interests in the future.

After strolling around CCTV, Wei Ming also saw that Sister Xue had already come to do preparations for the Spring Festival Gala, and there were also Ma Ji and his disciples.

He did not disturb them and immediately went to the Film Academy to find Hu Weili, and the two discussed the music for "The Sheep-Herding Class" again.

Teacher Zhong in the film was involved in Western music teaching, playing fashionable things like the piano, violin, and accordion.

But in the countryside, without the conditions for Western musical instruments, he gradually came into contact with and mastered some traditional musical instruments, so most of the music in the film was also created based on traditional instruments. This was also Hu Weili's strength, and Wei Ming learned a lot from him.

At this time, the final exams at Peking University had basically ended, and each department began to prepare for the holiday.

Usually, when the semester ends, the Triangle area of the school is exceptionally lively. In addition to students exchanging news about going home, some school notices are also posted here to achieve better dissemination effects.

Pi Zhuoding, a student of the Class of '81 Computer Department, had just passed by the Triangle area when he saw a school worker posting a document. He was the first to rush over, and soon a group of people surrounded him.

Students on the periphery urged: "What is posted? Read it to everyone."

Pi Zhuoding did not shirk and said: "Notice:

There is a staff member of our school library, a correspondence undergraduate graduate of the Library Science Department, the famous writer, poet, and musician Comrade Wei Ming, who, in order to encourage our students to study hard, work diligently, and develop comprehensively, recently donated one million RMB to establish the 'Peking University Wei Ming Scholarship'..."

When he said this, the students inside and outside three circles were completely shocked. That was 1 million! A 1 followed by six 0s!

Some students thought about the hundreds of yuan in savings at home and couldn't help but sigh that Wei Ming had a knack for making money.

Some students thought about how a "ten-thousand-yuan household" had only appeared in the county last year and was reported by the provincial newspaper, and deeply felt the huge gap.

A philosophy student named Shi Ping questioned: "Is this Wei Ming's own money? Why name it after him? Could it be from donations?"

Someone retorted on the spot: "Do you think Wei Laoshi is like you? He can afford one million. His books are very popular in dozens of countries abroad, and he earns foreign exchange."

"Exactly, I have a relative in the United States. The songs written by Wei Laoshi are the most popular in Europe and America. I guess one song can earn one million."

Shi Ping muttered: "Then why didn't he donate more."

However, his voice was soon drowned out by the waves of sound from the students.

"Continue!"

"Keep reading!"

Pi Zhuoding continued: "The notification regarding the application for this year's Wei Ming Scholarship is as follows:

1. Award recipients:

Full-time undergraduates and postgraduates with formal student status at our school..."

Regarding the award recipients, Wei Ming did not directly exclude liberal arts students, but he would divide this scholarship into first, second, and third prizes. The first-class scholarship would inevitably be related to scientific and technological progress.

For the second-class scholarship, if it were liberal arts, unless one could reach his own strength and influence from the previous two years, there would be no chance, and such figures would likely not take the initiative to apply.

The third-class scholarship could be slightly more lenient towards liberal arts. This was also a change made under the school's suggestion; one couldn't give nothing to liberal arts students.

The sisters in Wei Hong's dormitory also heard about the one-million scholarship from the Triangle area and immediately ran back to the dormitory to find Wei Hong.

Wei Hong was packing her luggage to go home. Qiao Cui asked her: "Sister Hong, how much money can our big brother's scholarship give out? And what kind of grades do you need to get it?"

Wei Hong said: "According to my brother, the first-class scholarship might directly make one a ten-thousand-yuan household. Undergraduates don't have much hope; at least they must be postgraduates and have scientific research achievements. You guys, publish a few solid papers this year; you might be able to get the third-class scholarship."

Even if it were the third class, with the interest of tens of thousands of yuan from the Wei Ming Scholarship every year, the amount that could be distributed was not a small number, at least equivalent to a year's financial aid.

Hearing the inside story revealed by Wei Hong, several roommates rushed to hug Wei Hong's thighs: "Then you won't participate in the selection, right?"

In their Mathematics Department, even counting the seniors, the one with the best grades was Wei Hong. Last year, she published two very weighty papers, which was also her confidence in applying to Stanford.

Wei Hong smiled: "In half a year, I will go abroad, and the Wei Ming Scholarship will be judged in the second half of the year, so it definitely has nothing to do with me. Everyone, work hard."

With the spread among Peking University students, the matter of the Wei Ming Scholarship soon became known to everyone.

Naturally, before long, Tsinghua next door also knew about it.

Some people had no fluctuation, and some felt the sky had fallen, as if they had missed out on one million, feeling uncomfortable.

Wei Ming, why didn't he come to Tsinghua to guard the gate back then!

Hong Kong.

When Lin Dian and Qian Jiale came to Madman Comics to deliver goods, it already looked like a big company, except that there were fewer big-name cartoonists because they had the money to rent houses separately. Now, most of them worked from home, enjoying quiet private time.

When the two arrived, they happened to catch Hong Jinbao visiting Liu Rulong and Huang Guoxing to discuss the cooperation for "Five Lucky Stars." He hoped that after the film was made, "Madman Comics" could promote this film in the magazine.

He also hoped that the screenwriter could carry the name of Wei Madman; after all, this story was indeed written by Wei Ming.

This was as it should be. If a comic-adapted film became a box office hit, it would also be conducive to improving the brand value of Madman Comics. Now, financial companies had already approached Liu Rulong, wanting to let Madman Comics go public and become the first stock in Hong Kong comics.

However, some details of the film promotion still needed to be discussed. I help you promote the film; shouldn't your film also promote the magazine in return?

Liu Rulong felt that adding a line of text to the opening credits was not enough. He wanted to embed "Madman Comics" magazine into the film's plot, and this was not something unacceptable to Hong Jinbao. The two naturally talked happily.

When Hong Jinbao came out of Liu Rulong's office and saw Lin Dian and Qian Jiale, they immediately said politely: "Big Brother."

Qian Jiale seized the opportunity to take the initiative to introduce: "Big Brother, my name is Qian Jiale. Qian Xiaohao is my brother. I was previously in the crew of Big Brother Cheng Long's "Project A"."

"Oh, I know you. Big Nose praised you, saying you are very good at action, but why didn't I see you later?" Hong Jinbao asked.

"Oh, previously, Dian Brother and I were working for Mr. Wei Ming, and we worked in the Mainland for a period of time."

Lin Dian added: "Working behind the scenes."

Meaning they didn't show their faces, so it was safe.

Hong Jinbao nodded and smiled at Liu Rulong: "You have an eye for talent. Following Mr. Wei will definitely not be bad. He is cultured and has a long-term vision. Since you are back, you can come to my crew when the time comes. Remember "Five Lucky Stars"."

He said it casually, but Qian Jiale took it to heart, thinking that following Hong Jinbao was indeed not bad; he had his own company and made many films.

However, Lin Dian still had to see if there was work at Xu Xiaoming's place. Master was now a senior executive at ATV, and there would be no shortage of films to shoot.

A-Long took over Wei Ming's task and learned that it was elegant playthings for five wealthy businessmen, so he asked the two of them: "Do you two want to come with me?"

The two looked at each other and agreed without delay. Although the big wealthy businessmen might not remember small figures like them, entering the home of a wealthy person was finally a matter of broadening one's knowledge and something to brag about in the future.

They got into Liu Rulong's car, delivering to as many families as they could today. At this time, the radio in the car was broadcasting the Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs live.

The three listened all the way and actually heard the name Zhou Huimin twice, and when they left Hong Kong, it was exactly when Zhou Huimin's popularity had just skyrocketed through the New Talent Singing Contest.

The 5th Hong Kong Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs were awarded today. Zhou Huimin was also on holiday and had done well in her exams. After her mother's consent, she attended the awards ceremony and won the Top Ten Chinese Songs with the two songs "Rare to Have a Lover" and "Like You."

She was also the only person among the winners of the Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs this year to sweep two songs.

Besides her, among those familiar, Tan Yonglin's "Rainy Sorrow," Chen Baiqiang's "Ripples," Xu Xiaofeng's "Stars Ask," Wang Mingquan's "Brave Chinese," and Zhang Mingmin's "I Am Chinese" were also among them.

And the highest award, the Golden Needle Award, was awarded to Gu Jiahui this time. "Like You," "Brave Chinese," "Forget Everything in the Heart," "Tonight," and "Forget Everything in the Mist and Rain" were all works by him and Huang Zhan, this golden duo. Five out of ten; except for Wei Ming last year, I guess no one could match it. In the Hong Kong music scene, which has always been weak in composition, Gu Jiahui's authority is indisputable.

At Old Ghost's home, he and Lin Ni were also listening to the Hong Kong radio, but after the program ended, he turned on the tape recorder and listened to Zhang Mingmin's newly released new song "My Chinese Heart."

When Lin Ni made a "tsk tsk tsk" sound, Old Ghost was still intoxicated: "You grew up in a small place like Taiwan and don't understand how much weight the lyrics 'Yangtze River, Great Wall, Huangshan, Yellow River' carry. I don't blame you."

"Then may I ask, Great Master Wei from the big place, are you going back to the small place with me for the Spring Festival this year?" Lin Ni had already agreed with her brother and sister this year to go back to Taipei for the Spring Festival.

"I, I'm not going. I finally escaped."

"Then you're miserable. You'll be guarding an empty house, and Lingling will also go with me."

Old Ghost chuckled: "With Xiao Liu's family and A-Min and her mother here, I won't be lonely."
