Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 347
"Brother He, how much can a writer like you earn for writing a novel?"

"Not necessarily, it depends on the situation."

"Then will you be able to publish the novel after you finish writing it?"

"This depends on the editor, and some have to go through the editor-in-chief or editor-in-chief."

"What novels have you written before?"

"A lot of them. I have written some fairy tale novels and science fiction novels."

"Brother He is really knowledgeable and talented. He can write so many novels!"

Pang Ying and Jiang Nan are like two curious babies, they just ask He Ping when they catch him.

He Ping could also tell that the two of them were simply curious and thoughtless, so they roughly told them about their situation.

However, compared to the two of them understanding his situation, He Ping had a better understanding of their situation.

Jiangnan is in the sales department of the farm, and this department is very popular, because he can often travel on business, all expenses are reimbursed by the unit, and there are subsidies, so he can travel by the way.Jiang Nan didn't shy away from it either, his father was the deputy head of the farm.

And Pang Ying's family is also a farmer, and she herself is a teacher of farm novels.

The two can be said to be the second generation of the farm. This time they went to the capital on a business trip with their girlfriends. It was also because of the help of their parents and friends that they bought two soft sleeper tickets to experience the feeling of leadership.

Later generations will often see the situation of being cheated on the train when watching movies and TV dramas of this era. This is really not a TV drama made up.

He Ping, who has known each other for less than an hour, has completely covered the information of the two of them in a few words, and the two of them have not doubted his identity at all.

A liar born in this era is really lucky!
"Brother He, I heard that many of your novels have been adapted into movies. When will your works be adapted into movies?" Pang Ying asked.

Mao Chunhua said in a veiled showy tone: "It has already been adapted. Director Xie Jin has taken a fancy to his debut | "Spirit and Flesh". It is going to be made into a movie, and it has been renamed "The Wrangler". It is estimated that it will be shot soon." Is it over? Isn’t it, He Ping?”

"It was filmed last year, so it should probably be released this year!"

"The Wrangler?" Pang Ying's eyes widened again.

This time Jiangnan knew, "Pang Ying and I just watched this movie two days ago."

Released so soon?

He Ping did not expect that "The Wrangler" would be released so soon, and he had no news at all.

Mao Chunhua was also surprised, "Really? It's released?"

"Yeah, I just came out two days ago, and Pang Ying and I ran away from work to see it."

Mao Chunhua happily took He Ping's arm, "He Ping, "The Wrangler" is now in theaters!"

A smile appeared on He Ping's face, and he was still a little reserved, "We will go to the cinema later when we have time."

"Well, good!" Mao Chunhua agreed with a happy face.

Knowing that He Ping's work has been adapted into a movie, Pang Ying and Jiangnan became even more excited, and asked He Ping about the movie adaptation. For them, the novel is already a mystery, let alone the movie.

"Actually, it's nothing. At that time, my work was published in "Contemporary" magazine. Director Xie Jin liked the novel when he saw it, so he called me and said he wanted to make it into a movie. I agreed.

Then he invited me to Shanghai to participate in the adaptation of the film script, and then went to Beijing to participate in the casting of the film.Afterwards, I got to know almost as much as you guys did, and I didn’t know the movie had been released until I heard from you guys. "

"Brother He, you are really good. You can also write movie scripts." Pang Ying said with admiring eyes.

He Ping waved his hands and said, "I also learned from screenwriter Li Zhun, who is in charge of the script. I just help out with the staff."

Pang Ying and Jiang Nan didn't look down on He Ping because of his modesty, but felt that it was the low-key and modesty unique to intellectuals.

He Ping is quite curious about whether the quality of the adaptation of "The Wrangler" is exactly the same as that of later generations, or whether it is slightly different because of his own participation.

"What do you think after watching The Wrangler?"

"The filming was really good. Many people in our field have seen it."

"Don't tell me it's only been released for a few days?"

"Yeah, just because it's only been released for a few days and so many people have watched it, it means it's popular!"

Whether the plot arrangement of the movie is the same as the previous life, He Ping has no way of knowing, but in terms of popularity, it should be even worse than the later life.

Presumably, the copy of the movie hadn't been sent to Ping County, a small county, so he hadn't heard about the release of "The Wrangler".

Pang Ying and Jiang Nan are an elementary school teacher and a salesperson. They are both extroverts. It is difficult to stop when they have a topic.

He Ping learned of Jiangnan's identity and was also curious about the operation of their farm.

"Jiangnan, how big is your farm? How is the situation now? What is your main business?"

"Our farm is too big, with more than 8 mu of arable land, and the main crops are corn and soybeans. We also grow apples, pears, grapes, as well as cattle and sika deer. There are 2000 cattle alone. Many, more than 1000 sika deer."

As expected of a state-run farm, this scale is really not small.

"Have the benefits been good in the past two years?"

"That is, the economy has been improving in the past two years, and the products on our farm are very popular. For example, our velvet antler and beef are all supplied to the capital."

When Jiangnan talked about the farm, his face was full of pride. Like all workers in state-owned units in this era, he loved the farm like home.

"Then how many people are there in your field?"

Jiang Nan thought for a while, "Let's say there are 5000 employees, and there will be more if you count the family members."

It is basically at the level of a small town. As long as the current state-owned units are a little larger, they are a small society. Isn’t Pang Ying the teacher of the farm primary school?

"That's big enough."

"What's the point of this? Farms like ours can't be photographed in China. Even a farm in Longjiang is bigger than ours!" Jiang Nan said.

Although Jiangnan spoke modestly, He Ping could still feel the faint pride in his heart.It's not that he did it deliberately, it's just that the material conditions in state-run farms in this era are far higher than those in other places in the country, including many state-run factories.

After all, they produce these things themselves, and they can communicate with their brother units, so the happiness index of working on a farm in this era is much higher than that in other places.

He Ping was very interested in the situation of the farm. He asked Jiangnan a lot of questions about the internal aspects of the farm, and Jiangnan told him without any shyness, knowing everything.

After some understanding, He Ping also has some understanding of the farms of this era.In his plan, Han Tun will definitely deal with the farm in the future, but he doesn't know how.

The long journey passed quickly amid the conversations of several people. Before getting off the car, Pang Ying and Jiang Nan bid farewell to He Ping and Mao Chunhua reluctantly.
