Chapter 52 052 Job adjustment: guarding the gate becomes on duty in the security department
"Director Wu, come and have a cup of hot tea." Fang Minghua greeted warmly.
"Thank you, the wind is really strong today." Wu Tianmin rubbed his hands, took a sip from the teapot, and immediately praised: "Xiao Fang, your tea is really good."
< br>Of course it’s good, it’s thirty yuan a pound.
There have been more visitors recently. The tea is a bit expensive, and Fang Minghua feels a little distressed.
Are we like some smokers, with "peonies" in the left pocket and "sheep" in the right pocket, making smoke when seeing others?
Tea is also divided into several types so you can save money.
But no matter what, Wu Tianmin came to make some good tea.
"Director Wu, it's such a cold day, why are you here? Is the script ready to start filming?" Fang Minghua asked with a smile.
"How can it be so fast? Wu Tianmin said: "The novel has not been completely adapted yet. I came here today to discuss this matter with you. ”
"Oh?"
Wu Tianmin took out a notebook from the green satchel he was carrying and handed it to Fang Minghua: "I wrote this script myself, but I have never written it before, and I am not sure. The author of the novel has the deepest understanding of the work, so I will let you take a look and make comments."
Fang Minghua took it and turned it over, frowning slightly.
It’s not as good as the original script.
Yes, screenwriter and director are two different things after all.
After all, this is Wu Tianmin's first time writing a screenplay, and even his first time directing a movie alone.
There is still some distance between him and his peak moment.
Of course Fang Minghua didn’t want the movie to be less good-looking because of the script, so he said, "How about this, Director Wu, let me take a closer look and then talk about it?"
" That's okay. But Xiaofang, hurry up, I'm in a hurry to take the photo." Wu Tianmin said with a smile.
"Don't worry, it won't be a mistake. I'll call you after I finish writing it. Please leave your phone number." Fang Minghua said.
"Okay."
Wu Tianmin left a phone number and left immediately.
"Director Wu, why don't you sit down for a while and drink tea." Fang Minghua politely asked to stay.
"There are still a lot of things to do in the factory, goodbye!"
After Wu Tianmin left, Fang Minghua closed the door and read the script carefully.
A little rough.
It turns out that the biggest feature of that script is that it takes the easy and seemingly ordinary things in life and turns them into tragic and symbolic meanings after a certain connection.
For example, that donkey.
The donkey is a very common domestic animal in the Northwest. There is nothing special about it, but it appears quite often in the original movie.
The first shot of the movie is an adobe window. A curse stopped the people working in the window, but what emerged next was a donkey, and then the male protagonist Ma Youtie Come on stage.
This donkey has a symbolic meaning: the male protagonist Ma has the epitome of an iron life.
But this subtlety cannot be felt in Wu Tianmin's script.
Just write it yourself.
Fang Minghua took a sip of hot tea and spread out the manuscript paper.
Three days later, Wu Tianmin received a call from Fang Minghua.
"Director Wu, I've read and revised your script. Are you here to pick it up or should I give it to you?" Fang Minghou said on the other end of the phone.
"How can I have the nerve to ask you to come when it's so windy outside? Just wait, I'll be here right away!" Wu Tianmin hung up the phone and immediately left the office, riding his weighted bicycle, braving the cold The wind rides north.
Fang Minghou is lighting the coal stove.
The weather was so cold today that the young man Fang Minghua couldn't bear it, so he finally set up the chimney and burned the briquettes.
After a burst of soot smell, the room finally warmed up.
Sitting in front of the stove with a teapot is so comfortable.
Not long after, Fang Minghou heard a knock on the door. Wu Tianmin opened the door and greeted him warmly. "Director Wu, sit inside and warm yourself by the fire."
Wu Tianmin unceremoniously sat down by the stove, his hands close to the chimney. He saw Fang Minghua making tea for himself again, He quickly said: "Xiao Fang, there's no need to pour it. I have to rush back later."
"Director Wu, what's the hurry? It's such a cold day, have a drink to warm yourself up."
Wu Tianmin took the tea made by Fang Minghua and took a sip, but his mind was not on the tea today.
"Have you read the script? Do you have any comments?"
Fang Ming didn't mince words, so he took out the script he had written from the drawer and handed it to the other party: "Director Wu, I rewrote it, do you think it works? "
Rewritten?
Wu Tianmin was a little surprised, but he still took it and looked at it carefully.
Dip in quickly.
After a while, he raised his head and let out a long breath: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, Xiao Fang, your novel is so good and your script is adapted so well, so I will use yours, But."
"But what?"
"Xiao Fang, the factory is tight on funds and the budget allocated to me is limited. I'm afraid I can't pay you for the adaptation. To be honest, I I just want to save some money, so the result of doing it myself doesn’t seem to work.”
That’s it.
"It doesn't matter, you can use it." Fang Minghua was also quite generous.
"Thank you very much. I'll buy you a drink now. I heard from Linda that you have a pretty good drinking capacity."
"Haha, okay, let's wait until you finish your work." Fang Minghua smiled.
It would be nice to make friends like Wu Tianmin.
It’s mid-November, and winter in Xijing has really arrived.
The north wind howled all night last night, and it snowed heavily this morning.
During this period, Fang Minghua has been sleeping in the temporary room provided by the work unit and has not arranged any specific work.
However, he felt that it would be okay to just receive a salary and not work for a long time. Just yesterday, he took the initiative to find President Huang and said that he wanted to continue to go to the guard room to check the door.
But I was rejected by President Huang, saying that if you go to see the gate as a writer, others will make fun of me because I don’t reuse talents.
Fang Minghua from the Editorial Department didn’t want to go, so he finally decided to stay in the security department, but changed his position from guarding the gate to being on duty.
During the day, I would stroll around to see if there were any hidden dangers. After 11 pm, I would take a flashlight around the unit to see if there were any thieves. I would rest all day on weekends.
No need in the middle of the night.
The magazine is not a key unit, so why steal it?
The sky is dry and things are dry, so be careful of the candles and don’t shout.
The focus is still on writing, and President Huang encouraged him to keep up his efforts.
Okay
But Fang Minghua still doesn’t know what to write.
There will be patrol duty tonight. Fang Minghua went to the logistics department to get a flashlight and a baton that was electrified!
Forget about the pistol.
Fang Minghua heard that the security section of the unit had a May 4th-style pistol, but it was kept by the section chief and was not given to ordinary people.
I took it in my hand and tried it, and it felt very cool.
Find someone to touch it and see the effect?
But it is estimated that no one is willing to do the experiment.
It's better to be a little thief and try the power of the baton, hehe.
While fiddling with it, there was a knock on the door outside. Fang Minghua quickly packed up his things and opened the door. It was Wu Tianmin.
There was snow on my head and clothes.
After coming here several times, he became familiar with it. Wu Tianmin walked into the room and quickly patted the snowflakes on his body. He also said to himself: "The first snow is so heavy today. It seems that this year will be a cold winter again."
"Director Wu, are you ready to start shooting in such a cold weather?" Fang Minghua asked.
"Yes, everything is ready. The script is to be filmed all year round. Of course we can't miss this winter." Wu Tianmin replied, then looked at Fang Minghua: "Xiao Fang, I'm here to see you today. I want you to go to Gansu Province with me to film.”
