China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

Chapter 20
That night, when he returned to school after having dinner with his parents, He Hua, who had just entered the school gate, felt the difference.

"Hi brother"

"Hello."

"Brother just came back? Did you go on a date?"

"No, I'm having dinner with my friends."

"Brother, I bought a copy of "The Wind Dog Boy", can you sign it for me some other day?"

"no problem"

Why are the freshman juniors and juniors so enthusiastic today?What happened?He Hua didn't think about it until he met Senior Brother Wang Kai.

Upon meeting Wang Kai, he raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up:

"Huazi, handsome, and he did a great job in the interview!"

"The interview came out? Where did you see it?"

Only then did He Hua suddenly realize, and hurriedly asked.

"There are recommendations on the homepage of Sina.com, did no one tell you? Hey, don't run away, what's the rush?"

He Hua hurried towards the dormitory without waiting for Wang Kai to finish speaking. He couldn't wait to see his interview. Would it be silly?Probably not, it seems to perform fine.

When he returned to the dormitory, he was approached by people all the way through the corridor, so he had no choice but to say loudly:

"I'll go back and watch the video first, I haven't watched it yet."

"So will chat."

When he returned to the dormitory and opened the door, he saw three people discussing each other in front of the computer. It was his voice that was playing on the stereo, so he hurried over:
"Well, how am I doing?"

Then he was punched by his roommate a few times.

Guo Changlin said with emotion: "You performed very well. We ran into Lao Peng on the road this afternoon, and Lao Peng even praised you."

He Hua quickly grabbed the mouse and "replay from the beginning":
Today is December 2005, 12, time back to two months ago.

A young man quickly broke into the public eye, and various media newspapers, literary magazines, and online platforms appeared one after another about him, linking him with Han Han and Guo Jingming.

There are also many well-known actors and screenwriters who voiced him, but he only relies on a novel that has not yet achieved results.

This not only confuses the public, but also disgusts some writers:
XXX published in the Southern Metropolis Daily: "Literature depends on works to speak after all", the article mentioned this young man by name, saying that he was a man-made writer and mass-produced literature.

But one and a half months later, his work "The Sky of the Wind Dog" overwhelmed everyone and became the No. 1 best-selling book in the literature category, and he was He Hua.

This interview allows us to have a close contact with 'post-80s rising star writer - He Hua'.

"What do you think of the marketing hype that preceded publication?"

"The publishing house is for profit. If you don't promote it, your works won't be sold, and even good works won't reach people. So what should you do?"

"Good works will have the reputation of readers"

"Now is no longer the era when the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys"

"So you agree with the behavior of the previous publishing house?"

"I think it's fine as long as you don't put the cart before the horse. If you over-promote and falsely publicize, the word-of-mouth you mentioned will make everything go down the drain."

Gao Jian patted He Hua's head:
"Huazi, I can't tell, what you said is quite deep."

He Hua ignored him and continued to watch carefully.

"I don't even look at who taught it. With a few outstanding young people like us as roommates, everyone can change their appearance."

Lao Guo couldn't help laughing, and Liu Zhonglun was still bragging.

He Hua watched for a long time and felt that there was nothing wrong with his performance, so he relaxed and chatted happily with his roommate.

While chatting, Gao Jian remembered something:
"By the way, Lao Peng asked you to go to his office tomorrow."

"That's right, we'd almost forget if you didn't tell me."

He Hua is speechless, can such an important thing be forgotten?Do you want me to be put on little shoes?

"What did you say?"

"I didn't say it. It should be a good thing. I think he is very happy."

As long as it's a good thing, He Hua said he knew it.

"By the way, "Riding a Thousand Miles Alone" directed by Zhang Yimou will be released tomorrow, and we haven't watched "The Promise" by Chen Kaige. Shall we go and see it tomorrow."

"Go, why don't you go, I like "Farewell My Concubine" very much. I will leave after class tomorrow and watch the two together."

Guo Zhonglin immediately agreed.

Gao Jian looked at He Hua with some hesitation:
"Huazi, do you have something to do? If you have something to do, go and do your work."

He Hua quickly waved his hands: "No, no, I just can't think of how to make this oriental magic costume movie?"

In fact, he watched it a long time ago, a few days after he first got the player, maybe earlier than Chen Kaige, He Hua frowned after watching it.

He really couldn't figure out how Chen Kaige, who was able to make such a classic movie as "Farewell My Concubine", could make such a movie. No matter in terms of content depth, character performance, or artistic value, "The Promise" cannot be called excellent.

Slowly watching the bullet screen later, and watching other big productions, such as Zhang Yimou's "Full City with Golden Armor" to be released next year, and Feng Xiaogang's "Night Banquet", He Hua seems to understand a little bit:
The three major directors in mainland China produced three works at the same time that are extremely unsuitable to their own level. Is there something wrong with them?Maybe.

But He Hua was really amazed when he saw "[-]" filmed later by Feng Xiaogang.

Then everything can be traced, they are trying their best to commercialize themselves: "Farewell My Concubine" is very good, but it didn't make much money!
A "Hero" earned [-] million yuan. Its success not only stimulated the Chinese film market, but also stimulated investors and domestic fifth- and sixth-generation directors.

So they began to study "Heroes":
Pile up a large number of stars, engage in a big battle, thousands of people are required for group performances, the movements must be uniform, the costumes must be gorgeous, the lines must be incomprehensible, and finally some bloody love affairs that the audience loves.

Such a big production is completed.

But he can also understand that Chinese movies are used to being poor.

Before 00, everyone would rather go to the video hall than to go to the theater. The theater couldn't make money and naturally couldn't invest in new movies.

How can I shoot without money?
Reporting to his own unit, the state-owned studio, and the director shooting new movies with the funds obtained from begging his grandparents to his grandma, are basically generating electricity for love.

Now that the market is better, of course I want to earn some money, and the director also has to support his family.

Forget it, let's not talk about it, anyway, it has nothing to do with me at this stage.

He Hua himself is still wandering outside the circle, so he understands what they are doing.

He Hua turned on his computer, logged on to the blog, and hundreds of thousands of readings were displayed in the lower left corner of the screen.There are also a lot of messages in the background:

Someone came to find the organization, this is a fan of "The Wind Dog Boy";

Some people cursed, this is a fan of "Strange Hero Yizhimei".

Today is the 16th, and "Legend of the Ancient Times" published the third chapter and Chapter 4 of "Strange Hero Yizhimei", and readers were surprised to find that "Iljimae" hadn't appeared yet, and they were very angry.

Many martial arts readers just opened Sina.com, and after being attracted to the interview video by the title, they discovered that the dog author was here, so they called their friends to He Hua's blog and reached a consensus with the first group of martial arts netizens to condemn He Hua.

Seeing more and more messages in the day after tomorrow, He Hua had to give a little spoiler:
Fellow martial arts fellows, He Hua, the late student, hereby guarantees: 'Yizhimei' will appear in the next issue, please put away your weapons and leave in an orderly manner.

Then I would like to thank everyone for their support of "The Wind Dog Boy".
