The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 145: Two Novels on One Topic

With the arrival of June 01, the temperature in Beijing gradually rose and people on the streets were wearing increasingly light clothes.

Especially those girls who love beauty have begun to fully show their fashionable and sexy side. In this case, if they have a small white player with blue and white porcelain patterns in their pockets, connected to their ears through a long headphone cable, then the frequency of turning heads on the street will definitely be the highest.

Samsung's mainland-specific Blue and White Porcelain MP3 was enthusiastically sought after as soon as it hit the market. After all, this was recognition from a foreign country, and a developed country at that. The OECD recognized that South Korea had the characteristics of a developed country in 96, and it transformed from a recipient of aid to a donor country.

Despite the high price, the great development in the past decade has created many wealthy people.

In addition, at the Samsung press conference, Li Yunxin's appearance was truly stunning, and she also shouted the slogan of challenging Sony. The spokesperson on the mainland was the national idol Fan Xiaoyanzi, and the commercial was also shot very well.

Fan Xiaoyanzi first transformed herself into a sporty girl, fully displaying her vitality, singing and dancing with her MP3, and then changed the song to "Blue and White Porcelain". She then transformed herself to the music, becoming a lady in a blue and white porcelain cheongsam, looking both elegant and sexy.

In this way, by focusing a little more on publicity, a large number of female fans were attracted. Women consume without thinking, and there are still many bootlickers these days, so sales naturally increased.

In addition, shops on the streets and alleys have finally replaced the song "Little Apple" that had been sung for more than three months with "Blue and White Porcelain", which is really cause for celebration, although it is still sung by the same person.

"This song is really beautiful. It has a completely different style from today's popular songs. You have created a new genre." Gao Yuanyuan, who was sitting in a booth facing the street and listening to songs on her MP3, said with a smile.

"What? Sister Yuanyuan also wants to release an album?" Xu Jiuyang smiled without raising his head while typing on the keyboard.

He is now worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, so it is normal for him to buy a laptop to write.

"That's not necessary. I just think this song is very good. If you write another song like this, it may really become a new genre." Gao Yuanyuan shrugged with a smile.

"No, this song alone cost several million, so let's not write the same one." Xu Jiuyang shook his head.

"Millions? How could that be?" Gao Yuanyuan was a little surprised.

So Xu Jiuyang told her about Huang Zhan's situation: "It's definitely not a few million, but it's possible to get millions. Although I can rely on Old Huang to connect with Hong Kong, I personally feel that the gains are not worth the losses."

Then he thought for a moment, "It's not that the gains don't outweigh the losses, but even if I don't make any money, I'm still considered a loss. After all, most of those people in Hong Kong are fence-sitters, and they look down on the mainland. Without sufficient power and capital, I can't suppress them at all."

After saying that, he coughed lightly, a little embarrassed: "I've said too much..."

"It's okay. I like to see you giving orders." Gao Yuanyuan's smile was gentle and healing.

"But I need your guidance now." Xu Jiuyang coughed again and turned his laptop in front of her. "It has been modified."

Gao Yuanyuan started reading it immediately, which took her about ten minutes.

"I think it's fine, but I haven't studied psychology, so maybe you should consult a professional," she said.

"That's not necessary. A movie script isn't a professional book. It's enough as long as it's self-consistent." Xu Jiuyang didn't care much. "Of course, the specifics will depend on the client's requirements. I'll try to finish the first draft by the end of the month and then complete it before joining the crew of The Legend of the Condor Heroes."

"Have you ever thought about finding an assistant?" Gao Yuanyuan suddenly asked.

"Assistant?" Xu Jiuyang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "Let's talk about it later. I'm not that overwhelmed." Gao Yuanyuan didn't try to persuade him anymore. Instead, she moved her notebook in front of him and said, "I have an idea for a new book recently. Can you help me see if it's suitable?"

"It looks like 'The Whistleblower' has been rejected again?" Xu Jiuyang teased with a smile, then read out the words on the screen: "Tan Yunxian...Xu Jang Geum?"

He looked up and blinked in surprise, not knowing what to say.

Gao Yuanyuan explained considerately, "Although I don't want to follow the editor's advice and write about palace fighting, I don't have any better ideas at the moment, so I want to write about history. So, while browsing, I discovered Tan Yunxian, a hidden gem in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

If I hadn't specifically collected information, I'd guess few people would have known about her. Then, by extension, I discovered there were only four female doctors in ancient times whose names were recorded. So, I came up with a novel featuring them. And then, guess what happened?"

"I can't guess that. I've never heard of the name Xu Jang Geum." Xu Jiuyang originally planned to act smart, but after thinking about it carefully, before "Dae Jang Geum" became popular, basically no one knew the name Xu Jang Geum, so forget it.

"Because of the game company's affairs, I have been in contact with Miss Li San a lot. Last time when we were chatting, I told her about this idea. Unexpectedly, she said that South Korea also had a recorded first female doctor in North Korean history. After checking the information, I found that she was almost the same period as Tan Yunxian. So, she asked me if I was interested in writing two novels on this subject, one about us and one about them, and she could also fund the adaptation into a TV series." Gao Yuanyuan said.

"Why... did she do this?" Xu Jiuyang scratched his head.

Here it comes, this is the feeling. How big are the wings of this butterfly of mine? They always mess up the original "history".

"She said that if she could do this well, she could serve as a bridge for friendship between China and South Korea," Gao Yuanyuan said, looking puzzled. "She's a Samsung employee. Does she still need to serve as a bridge for friendship between China and South Korea?"

Xu Jiuyang was silent for a moment: "I roughly know why she did this. Since it involves her private affairs, I can't say more."

As always, the motivations for the behavior are logical, but it's just weird.

"Nothing, I just want to ask, do you think this is okay?" Gao Yuanyuan asked.

"If Sister Yuanyuan is confident, you can give it a try. With... Yunxin's help, this will be a very good project." Xu Jiuyang answered frankly.

"Then I'll listen to you." Gao Yuanyuan smiled slightly.

Then, the two chatted for a few more minutes, exchanged their views on each other's new works, and then got up and left the cafe.

As usual, they drove around and in addition to shopping and taking walks, they also went to a newly opened pottery studio and made some weird things together, just like an ordinary couple.

This went on until the lights came on and they ended their date for the day.

"Well, Sister Yuanyuan, you know, I have something to do tonight." Xu Jiuyang said a little embarrassedly after coming out of the restaurant.

"You said it when you got here, no need to repeat yourself," Gao Yuanyuan said without a care in the world. "You can go back first."

After a pause, she continued, "However, as a supplement, do you think we can go out for a few days of travel someday?"

"Well..." Xu Jiuyang was unexpectedly silent. "After this month, is it okay?"
