Chapter 660 661【Become famous all over the world in one fell swoop】
Xiang Nan’s words are filled with abundance.
What does it mean to "change things for the better" and what does "life is really hard to live" mean? These are all what he said.
If he says he hasn’t changed, he hasn’t changed. If he says he can still live, that means he can still live.
?An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua couldn''t hear it. Seeing that Xiang Nan was still willing to take care of An Yongshou and An Yongkang, they stopped making trouble with him.
However, after they returned, An Yongshou and An Yongkang found that they still couldn''t enter Xiang Nan''s house, couldn''t enter the Liren Clothing Factory, and still couldn''t pay for their meals in the county.
?So they had to ask An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua to help them come forward.
?An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua didn’t want to bother anymore.
At first, Yongfu, Yongshou, and Yongkang were all married and separated. As old people, it is not good for them to interfere in the affairs between brothers. If they interfere too much, they will be blamed;
Secondly, Xiang Nan has actually done a good job in these years, and he has been devoted to their brothers. They also saw the degradation of Yongshou and Yongkang over the years.
If you don’t know how to live a good life, you will know that your ideas take advantage of your elder brother. This approach actually doesn’t work. Brothers also have to settle accounts openly. In recent years, Yongshou and Yongkang have both had accounts of more than 20,000 yuan in the county, so how can they have the nerve to open their mouths.
Three times, they will still look after Xiang Nan after they retire. It is basically impossible to count on Yongshou and Yongkang. But if Xiang Nan is offended, who will take care of them in their old age? !
Xiang Nan doesn''t like to see them now. They are going to help Yongshou and Yongkang to cause trouble again. When the time comes, if Xiang Nan really disowns them, they will be doomed.
?So An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua did not move. Instead, they gave Yongshou and Yongkang a good lesson and asked them to work hard and live a down-to-earth life when they returned to the city.
Xiang Nan is not sure whether Yongshou and Yongkang listened. Anyway, as long as they don''t bother him, his ears will be clear.
…
November, the beginning of winter.
Jintan Village has entered the slack season. On the contrary, Liren Garment Factory is in full swing.
A new round of recruitment began. This time, the number of workers was as high as 300, so people from all over the country and even the county came to sign up.
After all, these days, state-owned factories are running into operating difficulties, and people in the county are also having a hard time.
In winter, after Xiang Nan finished working in the orchard, he also began to write the second volume of "So Many Beautiful Lands" at home.
The second volume of "So Many Beauties in the Country" tells the life of the villagers in Luanshigou after entering the Republic of China.
Social unrest, warlords fighting, bandits running rampant, old traditions and new ideas collided in this small mountain village, sparking countless sparks...
??While he was immersed in creation, "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" produced by the Yanjing Television Art Center was officially launched and immediately attracted a ratings boom.
On the one hand, the story is indeed a good story, telling the story of how a woman walked out of the mountains and walked into the city. It contains both hard work and the love between children. The story is ups and downs and the feelings are sincere, so it is naturally popular.
On the one hand, it is also to blame that the production of TV dramas in the mainland was insufficient at that time, so that any good TV series was popular. Nowadays, these kind of rural-themed dramas about suffering do not have that many audiences.
The popularity of "The Woman Who Crossed the River of Men" not only made several of the leading actors famous, but also made Xiang Nan''s popularity rise sharply, making her a well-known person in the literary world.
His original novel of the same name, "The Woman Crossing the River of Men", also experienced a sales boom two years after its publication. The People''s Literature and Art Publishing House reprinted 800,000 copies to meet the needs of readers. This also brought Xiang Nan more than 100,000 yuan in royalties.
What makes him even more happy is that film and television workers from all over the world, after seeing that "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" was so popular, couldn''t help but pay attention to the work of Xiang Nan, a rising writer.
They all then read Xiang Nan''s novels and found that his works are very good in storytelling and artistry, and are very suitable for adaptation into film and television dramas.
?Therefore, film studios and TV stations have successively approached Xiang Nan with olive branches, hoping to adapt his literary works. Works such as "Helan Snow", "Wuthering Mountains", "In the Field of Hope", "Blood in the Ancient Temple", "Wolfbane Flower", etc. are all very popular.
? Xiang Nan is not reserved, and will basically give it to anyone who wants it.
Now is a great opportunity for him to increase his popularity, and he doesn''t want to miss it.
??The 1990s was the golden period for writers to become famous through movies and TV dramas. Capital has not yet poured into the entertainment industry, and TV dramas still focus on storytelling and artistry, so good works by good writers are the most popular.
?For example, Wang Xie, Hai Yi, Qiong Yao, Jin Yong, Liang Zuo, and Gao Mantang all became famous because they could produce good works and scripts.
It will take a few years for capital to enter the entertainment industry. At that time, TV dramas will only focus on whether actors are popular or not. Whatever storytelling and artistry are left aside.
Even if it is Jin Yong drama, Hai Yi drama, Qiong Yao drama, without popular stars, it will still not work and no one will watch it.
So he didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
? And because of the popularity of "The Woman Who Crossed the River of Men", the rights fees for film and television adaptations of his novels have also increased.
Previously, "Woman Crossing the River of Men" sold only 10,000 yuan. Now they all start at 50,000, then 100,000 or 150,000.
Although it is not as high as later generations, where big film and television IPs can easily cost millions, at the time, it was considered a very good price.
…
The popularity of "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" also made people across the country know about Xihaigu for the first time.
The West Sea is the most impoverished in the world!
Many people living in coastal areas and big cities know for the first time that there are such poor places in the world.
With no land to farm and no water to drink, the brothers could sell their daughters for a pair of trousers for a donkey... They were so poor that it was beyond their imagination.
For a time, public opinion has focused on this poor place and whether the people there really live such a life, whether they are really so poor and backward...
? Groups of reporters went to visit and report, and the news sent back also surprised the people.
It turns out that there are indeed such poor places in China.
So poor that three meals a day are potatoes, so poor that you have to walk seven miles to drink water, so poor that you will marry for a cellar of water and a donkey, so poor that there is no glass in the classroom and the windows are sealed with plastic sheets, and so poor that the students have no chalk , squatting on the ground and writing with branches...
Such photos were published in newspapers, and such scenes appeared on television, causing an uproar across the country.
?Xi Haigu suddenly became famous and brought countless tears to readers.
Donations of money and materials from all over the country came in droves to support this poor place.
The local, city, and provincial people were all called to talk and asked them to take measures to improve people''s lives.
It is said that a well will not produce oil without pressure, and a person will be light and airy without pressure.
Under pressure and support from superiors, people''s motivation is stimulated.
??The construction of Yuquanying Highway and Yuquanying Water Pumping Station has been officially put on the agenda.
At the same time, the Diaozhuang immigration plan is also accelerating.
