The literary era since 1979

As soon as the welcome party ended, everyone left the venue one after another and went to the Miramar Hotel where they had already booked a private room.

As Pan Yaoming walked down the stairs, he said, "When we get back to the bookstore, I will definitely bring your suggestions to Mr. Xiao and the others. In fact, it would be best if you go with me. Then when we can discuss it, I can ask you directly and ask you to help me with some advice."

Fang Yan said, "Since you said so, let's do this. Before I leave Hong Kong, I will definitely find time to go to the bookstore."

"That's pretty much it."

Pan Yaoming smiled with satisfaction and said that Xiao Zi had been talking about him repeatedly, and particularly hoped that he could serve as the editor-in-chief of Sanlian Bookstore.

"I have also discussed this matter with my senior brother."

Fangyan also plans to transfer to the Joint Publishing Company in Hong Kong, both for the sake of advancement and to facilitate the layout of his future business empire.

"You're also interested in coming to Sanlian Bookstore? That's great!"

Pan Yaoming's tone was full of excitement. "I will tell this to Mr. Xiao right away and ask him to go to the Yanjing headquarters and try to get you..."

"Look at you, you're in a hurry."

Fang Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't worry, let's talk about the transfer after the Japanese exchange group's visit to China is over."

Pan Yaoming rubbed his hands and said, "Yes, yes, yes, let's take a long-term view, let's take a long-term view!"

Fang Yan did not follow the main group to the Miramar Hotel, but went straight to Xu Ke's studio.

At noon, the sun was scorching and the streets were sparsely populated. A flag was hung at the door of the cinema next to Xu Ke's studio, on which was clearly written "Full House". This did not mean that today's movie tickets were sold out, but that tickets for "A Better Tomorrow" for three consecutive days were sold out.

Even so, some people still refused to give up and wanted to book movie tickets for three days later.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and all pairs of eyes looked at Xu Ke, Shi Nansheng, Lin Qingxia and others who were about to go downstairs to eat.

Faced with the fans waving enthusiastically and shouting their names, Joey Wong, Ching-Hsia Lam and others also waved back with a smile.

The studio staff who followed behind him were extremely excited when they saw this scene, and blurted out: "This is how you make a movie!"

"Okay, let's go eat quickly."

Xu Ke raised his hand, then whispered to Shi Nansheng, "Where did Teacher Fang ask us to meet?"

"It's right there, the tea restaurant we often go to."

Looking in the direction Shi Nansheng pointed, Wang Zuxian and Lin Qingxia had complicated expressions.

When he arrived at the second floor of the tea restaurant and saw Fangyan sitting in the corner, there was a strange light in his eyes.

"Mr. Fang, it's been a long time."

Shi Nansheng greeted with a smile.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with them, Fang Yan's eyes fell on Wang Zuxian and Lin Qingxia, and he couldn't help but say in surprise:
"I didn't expect you guys to be here too."

"Yes, it's such a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Fang again so soon after we parted in the United States."

At this time, Lin Qingxia had cut her long hair into short hair, looking cool, capable and full of heroism.

Wang Zuxian sat next to Lin Qingxia and explained as she sat down that she came to the studio with her best friend, implying that she was not there for him. However, it would have been better if she didn't explain, because once she explained it made it seem like she was trying to cover up something, as if she was there for him.

Fang Yan smiled and said, "Is that so? So it seems that Qingxia has finished filming her role in Die Hard?"

"I came back as soon as the filming was finished. I can't delay Director Xu from filming 'Swordsman and Lady', otherwise Nan Sheng will blame me."

Lin Qingxia nodded and took Shi Nansheng's arm and started teasing.

"Making trouble."

Shi Nansheng rolled his eyes helplessly, then picked up the menu and said, "Let's order something to eat first and chat while we eat." Fang Yan and Xu Ke let the three girls order and started chatting about the hotly screened "A Better Tomorrow".

Xu Ke excitedly talked about his recent situation, "Haha, this time I'm really proud of myself!"

"I've also heard that before the release, the outside world seemed to have a negative view of our gangster film, which is completely different from previous ones."

Fangyan knocked on the table.

"It's not just the outside world, even Xinyicheng almost had trouble."

Xu Ke curled his lips and said that when there were still ten days before the wrap, Mecca, the leader of the Seven Monsters of Cinema City, heard that Wu Yusen was drinking on the set, so he asked Shi Nansheng to burn the negatives of "A Better Tomorrow" no matter what progress the filming had made. He was so angry that he went to confront Mecca face to face.

Fang Yan raised his eyebrows, "What happened next?"

"I told Mecca, 'This film was written by Fang Sheng, and he also invested in it,' and he immediately fell silent."

Xu Ke said: "Let us finish filming A Better Tomorrow, and don't interfere with the editing and release of subsequent films."

Fang Yan was amused. "I guess he did this mainly for your sake. I'm afraid my reputation is not that effective."

Xu Ke waved his hands repeatedly: "You are totally wrong!"

"Yes, you are famous now, as famous as you can be..."

Before Wang Zuxian could finish her words, Shi Nansheng secretly tugged at the corner of her clothes and interrupted her hurriedly to say that Jackie Chan and Golden Harvest had successfully cooperated with Forbes to produce a Hollywood blockbuster with a total investment of 2500 million US dollars. As soon as the news reached Hong Kong, it caused a sensation in the city.

In particular, among the exposed inside information, the most revealed thing is that the cooperation between Golden Harvest and Forbes was entirely attributed to Fangyan.

"I am just trying to do my best."

The dialect was spoken lightly, as if it was done effortlessly.

Wang Zuxian blinked, "No way? Qingxia told me that this is not the case!"

Fang Yan said, "Why don't you tell me what Qing Xia said?"

Just as Wang Zuxian was about to speak, Lin Qingxia hurriedly interrupted and said with reservation, "Anyway, I have to thank you very much. Thanks to you, I have the opportunity to become the first actress in Hong Kong and Taiwan to be lucky enough to participate in a Hollywood movie of this scale."

"You are suitable, so we chose you, just like Director Xu chose you to play in "Dagger-sword Woman" because he was attracted by your temperament as a "Dagger-sword Woman."

Fang Yu said in a serious tone.

Seeing Lin Qingxia's unnatural expression, Shi Nansheng smiled knowingly and said, "Speaking of this, it's all thanks to you. Qingxia said that you recommended her to cut her hair short to try. This really solved a big problem. We were originally worrying about what kind of makeup to design for Qingxia."

Fang Yan looked her up and down and said, "This short hair style really suits you."

"Really……"

With short hair, Lin Qingxia looked very heroic, like an elegant gentleman, but she rarely showed a hint of shyness like a little girl.

"That's right, this is the first time I've seen such a clear glow!"

As their eyes met, Wang Zuxian hugged Lin Qingxia and said, "I don't want to marry a man anymore. I just want to marry her."

When Fang Yan saw this scene, he couldn't help but think of the affectionate scene between Xue Qianxun and Dongfang Bubai in "The East is Red".

Under his gaze, Lin Qingxia tapped her best friend's forehead with her finger and said, "Stop fooling around. People are watching us."

Wang Zuxian pouted in grievance, always feeling that Lin Qingxia had suddenly changed since she cut her favorite long hair short.

She has really changed! She was not like this before. No matter how intimate the action was, she was always very accommodating to me!
His eyes went straight to Fang Yan who was chatting and laughing with Xu Ke, and then turned to Lin Qingxia. Is there anything wrong between the two of them? (End of this chapter)
