Literary Master 1978.

Chapter 156 I have a bold idea
Hearing her voice, Jiang Huaiyan, who was drunk and listless, raised his head and looked for the source of the voice.

"Old Jiang, your daughter is here to pick you up. It's better to have a daughter. She will be a good girl and will love you." Chen Huaikai, who seemed to be sober and teased Jiang Huaiyan.

Then he started to complain again, "My daughter is good, not like my son. I even told him to pick me up when I went out. How long has it been?"

Lin Chaoyang was speechless. You are conscious and have all your limbs intact. Can’t you walk back by yourself?
Jiang Huaiyan was supported by his daughter as he walked out. Chen Huaikai was still shouting, "Old Jiang, Old Jiang, please walk slower! Old Jiang, Old Jiang, I won't see you off!"

Lin Chaoyang silently took back what he had just said in his heart. Some people seem to be sober, but they are already drunk.

However, Chen Huaikai's two calls also reminded Lin Chaoyang that Old Jiang's surname was Jiang. No wonder the girl looked familiar. Wasn't that Jiang Shan?
It seems that no matter when, this problem will be inherited by the second generation!

Just as Lin Chaoyang finished his sigh, someone knocked on the door of the guesthouse again, and he opened the door.

The man was tall and handsome, except for his slightly protruding mouth, which was a flaw. Lin Chaoyang recognized this face, and this time he was sure of it.

Chen Kaige didn't know Lin Chaoyang. He looked at him and nodded silently as a greeting.

You're so cool at such a young age, it has to be you, Uncle Kai!
Chen Kaige walked into the room and helped up his father, who seemed sober but was actually drunk.

"Dad, let's go home."

Unexpectedly, Chen Huaikai grabbed Chen Kaige and said, "Don't go yet! Come, son, this is your Uncle Lin, call me Uncle Lin!"

Chen Kaige: ???

Lin Chaoyang smiled and said, "Old Chen, you've had too much to drink. Go home and rest early."

Lin Chaoyang's persuasion made Chen Kaige feel relieved. The young man in front of him looked younger than him. How could he call him uncle?
Seeing that his son didn't react, the drunk Chen Huaikai slapped Chen Kaige on the back.

With a "pa" sound, this palm strike showed the result of at least twenty years of skill.

"This kid, call someone!" Chen Huaikai urged.

Lin Chaoyang watched as Chen Kaige's face stiffened, his eyes showing a hint of embarrassment and dissatisfaction, and then he forced a few words out of his mouth.

"Hello Uncle Lin!"

It can be seen that the family education in the old Chen family is quite strict. Chen Kaige is already 27 or 28 years old, and his father asked him to call Lin Chaoyang uncle, so he really did it.

Lin Chaoyang thought that his nephew had already asked for help, wouldn't it be embarrassing if he didn't agree?
"Hey, nephew!" Lin Chaoyang responded happily.

Chen Kaige gritted his teeth and said, "If you agree, then agree. Why are you so happy? If you say yes, then yes. Why add a "nephew"?
"Brother Chen, please walk slower!"

Before leaving, Lin Chaoyang did not forget to say hello to Chen Huaikai, addressing him more affectionately than before.

"Let's go. Next time I'll try your cooking and we'll drink some more."

Lin Chaoyang felt that Chen Huaikai's drunkenness was a bit like Schrödinger's, and it was difficult to tell whether he was sober or drunk.

A little drunk, he rode his bicycle. After spending nearly half a month at Yanying Studio, he was finally able to go home.

The September night breeze was cool, and blowing on my face, I sobered up a lot.

Eh? Did you forget something?
I couldn’t remember it all of a sudden, forget it, the more important thing is to go home.

Chen Kaige helped his father back home, threw a hot towel to his father, and Chen Huaikai covered his face with the towel.

After a while, Chen Kaige asked with concern: "Dad, are you okay?"

"fine."

Chen Huaikai had his eyes closed to rest, but when he heard his son's words, he opened his eyes.

Seeing that the other party was looking at him, he asked, "What's the matter?"

"Who was that person just now?"

Chen Huaikai's eyes were clear, and he didn't seem drunk at all. He asked, "What's wrong? Are you so uncomfortable when someone calls you uncle?"

Chen Kaige's thoughts were exposed by his father, and his eyes were a little evasive, "No."

"You..." Chen Huaikai put the towel on the coffee table beside him, "I don't know where this arrogance comes from."

"I called him uncle, so can't I just ask who he is?" Chen Kaige said in a muffled voice.

Chen Huaikai asked back: "What? Can I let you suffer a loss?"

Chen Kaige said nothing more.

Chen Huaikai knows his son. He is a little talented, a little arrogant, and a little stubborn. These are not big problems, but they just happen to come together.

He sighed helplessly, "Don't look down on people just because they are young."

"I don't take it lightly. Uncle Cheng and Uncle Jiang both drank with me, so they must be extraordinary people."

Chen Huaikai felt a little relieved by his son's words. "Your uncle Xie Jinxie has taken a liking to a novel and wants to make it into a movie. He is the original author and screenwriter."

Hearing this, Chen Kaige's eyes immediately lit up, "Is he Lin Chaoyang?"

It has been nearly two years since The Shepherd was published. It has had a huge impact in China and has attracted countless audiences. Recently, the news that Xie Jin wants to make The Shepherd into a movie has been widely circulated in Yanying Studio, and Chen Kaige naturally knows about it.

Chen Huaikai nodded, "That's right. Lin Chaoyang, isn't he young? He's only 22 years old, but his works are getting better and better, and they are both critically acclaimed and commercially successful!"

Chen Kaige was in a trance when his father was speaking. He never imagined that the young man whom he had just called uncle was actually "Lin Chaoyang".

He is a literary youth and is currently studying at Yanying University. When he has nothing to do, he likes to hang out with a group of people from Today to write poetry and novels.

Although he has not written anything outstanding so far, this does not hinder his love for literature.

Many young literary people are familiar with every work of Lin Chaoyang, but Chen Kaige is different.

His favorite work of Lin Chaoyang is "The World's Number One Restaurant" performed by the People's Art Theatre. He even thinks that it is a classic that is no less than "Tea House".

He is good at writing novels, plays are even better, and he can even write movie scripts. Chen Kaige recalled the young face he had just met and felt a little dazed.

He is Yan Yingzi's disciple and has been very close to the editorial department of Today in the past two years. However, he cannot be considered a core member, because even Tian Zhuangzhuang, the "leader" of Yan Yingzi's disciples, cannot be considered a core member of Today. However, this does not prevent Chen Kaige from admiring Zhao Zhenkai, Mang Ke, Yang Lian and others.

In his eyes, poets like Zhao Zhenkai and Mang Ke are like Li Bai, with great talent and genius, and a sense of unrestrained boldness and romance, full of fascinating personal charm and leadership qualities.

But he had a different feeling about Lin Chaoyang. He got to know Lin Chaoyang through lead type. He read his works before meeting him in person and was conquered by his excellent works one after another.

Lin Chaoyang's personal image is not so prominent in his mind. Chen Kaige's admiration for him is more due to his works. When I met Lin Chaoyang today, I found that he is also an ordinary young man, and seems to be a little mischievous.

Chen Kaige recalled his somewhat deliberate response when he called him "Uncle Lin".

Such a great writer, but he acted like a naughty boy, which made Chen Kaige laugh for some reason and made him feel close to Lin Chaoyang.

"We who work in the arts should let our works speak for us. Holding parties and events all the time may seem lively, but after the hustle and bustle, it's just a mess."

Chen Huaikai said these words to enlighten his son. He knew that Chen Kaige liked to attend gatherings of underground poets and was busy participating in various activities all day long.

If his son has already achieved academic success, he will not stop him.

It is easy to imagine that a group of restless young people gathered together, seemingly making decisions and making decisions with great ambitions. There are certainly many talented people among them, but how many of them are truly well-educated?

After hanging out with those people for a long time, your level may not improve much, but instead you learn to be arrogant, cynical, and look down on everyone.

"Look at your Uncle Lin. His works are excellent and worthy of being accepted by the public. Naturally, he is treated as a distinguished guest."

Chen Kaige listened to the three words "Uncle Lin" and pursed his lips awkwardly, "Got it."

Hearing his son's response, Chen Huaikai nodded with satisfaction, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Chen Kaige watched his father fall into a deep sleep and sighed inwardly.

He knew clearly that his father did not like him attending Today's gatherings, and he actually wanted to tell his father that he no longer had to worry about him attending Today's gatherings.

Two days ago, the Municipal Public Security Bureau required Today to cease publication and stop its publishing and distribution work in accordance with the relevant regulations in the law formulated by the State Council in 1951 that "publications may not be published without registration."

The government ordered Today to cease publication, and it dared not disobey. But who could stop publication willingly?
Anyway, the writers and poets group centered around Today have been in a state of panic these days. Everyone is trying hard to find connections, trying to see if they can get the higher-ups to revoke their decision.

Chen Kaige really wanted to help, but unfortunately, given his family background, he couldn't be of any help at all.

Not knowing whether Today would cease publication, Chen Kaige couldn't help feeling melancholy.

Fortunately, there is the Stars Art Exhibition.

After working on the script for "The Shepherd" for nearly half a month, Lin Chaoyang returned home and rested for two days before regaining his energy.

Having not been home for half a month, Lin Chaoyang, feeling guilty, invited Tao Yushu to watch a movie.

"Lush Mountain Love" produced by Shanghai Film Studio has been extremely popular in the past two months. The heroine Zhou Yun, played by actress Zhang Yu in the film, has a passionate and unrestrained personality and a variety of clothing styles. She has not only become the dream lover of thousands of male compatriots, but also is regarded as a template for dressing by many lesbians.

Of course, the most praised thing about "Lush Mountain Love" is the stunning kiss between the male and female protagonists.

The 1980s was an era of polarization. The cultural community opened its eyes to the world and tried hard to move closer to the West in terms of both creative standards and aesthetic standards. It was common for many universities to hold dances and for cultural units to watch internal films.

On the other hand, the freezing atmosphere made the customs among the people still very conservative. Ordinary people even criticized "Homesickness" or Teresa Teng as decadent music.

"Love in Lushan" tells the story of Zhou Yun, the daughter of a former GMD executive living in the United States, who returns to China to travel to Lushan after the Buzz Buzz Incident. She happens to meet Geng Hua, a young man who is accompanying his seriously ill mother to Lushan for recuperation.

Geng Hua's simplicity, shyness and self-reliance attracted Zhou Yun, and the two had a mutual affection, but due to many political and family obstacles, they had to temporarily separate.

A few years later, the two revisited the old place and met unexpectedly. In the end, the two lovers finally got married.

As a film with love as its absolute theme, the style of "Lush Mountain Love" was extremely rare in China at that time, and was completely different from many stereotyped films.

When the scene of Zhou Yun and Geng Hua kissing appeared on the screen, there was a cry of surprise in the cinema. Many female comrades couldn't help but cover their eyes with their hands, but couldn't help but spread their fingers to carefully peek.

Compared with the reserved lesbians, the male compatriots were much more direct, with their eyes wide open and swallowing saliva frantically.

On those nights after the movie, I wonder how many young lovers were opened to a new world by this kiss.

Lin Chaoyang and Tao Yushu have been married for more than two years. They are not an old couple, but they are still quite calm about this kind of situation.

But on the way home after watching the movie, Tao Yushu couldn't help but discuss it with Lin Chaoyang.

"This movie is so bold. They really dared to make it."

"When love is strong, it is understandable that true feelings are revealed."

The scale of any movie or TV series in later generations would probably be more extreme than "Lush Mountain Love", so Lin Chaoyang didn't take it to heart.

"Isn't your movie The Wrangler like this too?"

"Anyway, I didn't write it. If it's in the film later, it must be added by Lao Xie himself. Maybe he received benefits from the male actor." Lin Chaoyang joked.

"You are not serious." Tao Yushu scolded him, and then said expectantly: "I really want to see your novel made into a movie soon."

"Wait a minute. Old Xie has to finish his work on Legend of Tianyun Mountain and then prepare to set up the crew. He told me that filming won't start until the beginning of next spring."

Lin Chaoyang looked at Tao Yushu and said, "I told Old Xie that if we choose a heroine in the future, we will choose someone who looks like you. You are the most beautiful!"

Tao Yushu couldn't help but feel shy when she heard his sweet words. "You lied to me again."

"How could I be lying to you? I really said that.

But there is a problem. You are too beautiful, and you have a bright and elegant appearance, and your temperament is also fashionable.

The character of Xiuzhi has to be a bit rustic.

Alas, it’s a good thing you didn’t study acting, otherwise I would be quite confused.”

Tao Yushu happily listened to Lin Chaoyang's nonsense and couldn't help but hug his arm, "If I really play the leading female role, who will play the leading male role?"

"Me!" Lin Chaoyang patted his chest, "We, as husband and wife, will work together to create a classic that will shock the Chinese film industry."

"Hahaha!"

Tao Yushu was so amused by him that he trembled all over and rocked back and forth.

"How dare you think!"

"Think about it. It's not against the law." Lin Chaoyang whispered in her ear, "I have a bold idea..."

Tao Yushu blushed after hearing this, "You are doing something weird again!"
