Chapter 107 "Curve to save the country" (please order first and follow up)
"How much area? How much money?" Fang Minghua asked quickly.
“The unified area is 120 square meters, with three bedrooms and two living rooms. As for the price, internal financing is cheaper, about 40 yuan per square meter. Of course, there are floor fluctuations, but it’s not much different.”
Holy crap!
Only 40 yuan per square meter!
It’s less than half the market price!
Not long ago, the first batch of commercial housing in Xijing began to be sold to the outside world, in the Xihoudi area, with a listing price of 98 yuan/square meter!
Fang Minghua also went to see it. Of course, it was still a drawing. It covered an area of about 50 square meters, with one light and two dark. There was a kitchen at the entrance. There was a very small bathroom on one side of the kitchen, and bedrooms on both sides. The bedrooms had windows, and the kitchen The bathroom has no window.
Fang Minghua was quite excited, but felt that the area was still too small for the family, so he decided to wait.
I didn’t expect to encounter such a good thing today.
"Red Army, if you give me the indicator, what will you do?" Fang Minghua asked.
“It’s not like my family has no place to live. Besides, I haven’t found a partner yet and I don’t plan to get married. What kind of house do I want? I’ll wait until my work unit raises funds to buy it later. If your family is short of housing, let me give it to you!”
“Thank you.”
“We are all buddies, what can I thank you for?”
This is a great event.
Fang Minghua rode to the bank to withdraw his deposit, rushed to Minsheng Department Store, went to the home appliance counter on the second floor, and moved a 14-inch "Haiyan" TV set produced by Xijing Radio No. 1 Factory downstairs in the eyes of everyone with envy. Bundle up on the back of your bike and take it home.
For a total of 1120 yuan,
Fang Minghua’s family bought a large color TV!
The family courtyard is boiling!
After debugging it with everyone’s help, this colorful picture looks much better than black and white!
"Let's watch TV tonight."
My mother Zhang Fenglan smiled and greeted the helpers, her face full of joy.
When his father, Fang Changhe, came back from fishing in the afternoon, and the family was having dinner, Fang Minghua talked about buying a crowdfunded house.
Unexpectedly, my parents would not agree.
"Xiaohua, it's good, but my family doesn't have that kind of money. It costs 5,000 yuan." Zhang Fenglan said.
"I still have some royalties saved. I estimate I still have 3,000 left after I bought a color TV. It will be enough if you contribute more." Fang Minghua replied.
"Xiaohua, you can't settle the bill like this." His father Fang Changhe, who rarely talks during meals, spoke up: "If we scrape together, we can buy a house, but have you ever thought about spending all your money? What should I do if something big happens at home? Also, the new house needs to be tidied up before it can be lived in, right? This will cost money! It’s time to find a partner to get married, which also requires money!”
“Dad, don’t I have a salary, and I also have royalties,” Fang Minghua argued.
"Your salary is less than 40 yuan after one month's increase, right? Royalty? You said that it only costs 90 yuan to write a 10,000-word novel. You yourself like to entertain guests and spend a lot of money. Do you think Calculate, how much can you earn?”
Me.
Fang Minghua opened his mouth, but said nothing.
Going back to the unit to sleep at night, Fang Minghua couldn't sleep and thought about this problem while lying on the bed.
A house must be bought. How could such a good opportunity be lost?
In any case, raising funds is not a one-time payment. You need to pay part of it first.
But Fang Minghua had to consider his father's worries.
No way, this year's manuscript fee is just like this. Let alone the novel you wrote won the Mao Dun Award, even if you win the Nobel Prize for Literature, it is still of this standard!
Of course we are not talking about the Nobel Prize bonus. That thing is still a little far away from me.
The evil royalties system, implement the copyright system as soon as possible.
But there is no reason for this.
But Xiangjiang and Baodao implement a copyright system!
If you publish a novel there, it is probably easy to earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but if you put this money in the mainland, it will be a huge sum of money!
In Xiangjiang Baodao, romance and martial arts novels are the most popular nowadays. Fang Minghua is very confident in writing a martial arts novel. Even if he is not a copycat, he can still create it!
But the problem is, I don’t know the publisher in Xiangjiang! Do you want to go to Xiangjiang? You are a member of the system, and you are not doing business, so why are you here?
There are no seven aunts or eight aunts in the Fang family.
What’s even more frightening is that this year is 1983!
If I want to write about martial arts, I have to get through this year.
But this gave Fang Minghua a good inspiration. Wasn't "Harvest" an invitation to write a stream-of-consciousness novel? Can we make it a little more trendy and close to the ones in Hong Kong? We can try to rely on "Harvest" to be published in Hong Kong!
Is it possible to earn some royalties?
"Curve to save the country."
But what to write?
Fang Minghua didn’t think about it for a while, but he needed to rewrite the letter to Harvest. He agreed to the invitation, but the content was yet to be determined and was being conceived. We will communicate with him after he has thought about it.
No rush.
Nowadays, magazines are very polite when requesting manuscripts, and rarely push for manuscripts. You can write if you want to, and no one will force you if you don’t.
Think about it slowly.
The purchase of a 14-inch color TV at home has brought great changes to Fang Minghua’s family. Every night the house is as lively as the Chinese New Year, with adults and children crowded into the same room, chattering.
My mother, Zhang Fenglan, is a lively person. She is not bothered by so many neighbors coming to the house every day, and she is also very interested in watching together. The sound on the TV and the laughter of adults and children come and go in the room. On the street outside All heard clearly.
Fang Minghua was a little speechless. How had he ever seen such a scene watching TV?
Forget it, let them be happy, it’s better for me to stay in the work dormitory.
But today, he made an exception and came home to join in the fun, because today the Japanese TV series "Volleyball Girls" will be broadcast!
It is said that this is the first youth idol film in China, and Fang Minghua has long been attracted by it.
The whole room was already full. Unfortunately, he came back late and had to stand at the door to watch. The wind was blowing.
But the photo was indeed very exciting, and everyone was young. Beautiful, energetic girls are a joy to look at.
Although the Japanese actor is not tall and the volleyball player he plays is not very long-legged, he has a good figure.
There are also those volleyball tricks: Thunderbolt in the clear sky, spinning sun and moon, phantom whirlwind.
Fang Minghua was stunned when he saw it.
This should be considered an urban superpower, right?
Did Xingye’s "Shaolin Soccer" get inspiration from it?
At the end of the two episodes, many adults were reluctant to leave, and of course there were some children who refused to leave and wanted to watch cartoons!
There was a seven-year-old girl next door who kept yelling at Fang Minghua, "Brother Minghua, Brother Minghua" and asked him to change the channel to watch "Afanti"!
"Xiaoling, have you finished your homework? Go home and do your homework quickly!" Fang Minghua looked serious.
"Brother Minghua, we have no homework," the little girl replied.
How happy
Okay.
Naturally, there is no remote control these days, but the color TV is not like the original black and white TV with rotating channels, but a row of buttons. Fang Minghua stood in front of the TV and pressed buttons one by one to quickly find the channel for playing cartoons. The room was suddenly filled with excitement. It was quiet, and the children were all staring at the screen.
Fang Minghua actually wanted to watch news programs. After the children left with satisfaction after watching the cartoons, he chose CCTV again.
"CCTV News reported that the large-scale mythological TV series "Journey to the West" produced by CCTV and the China TV Drama Production Center has succeeded in the trial filming of "The Demon Exorcist Wuji Country", and now the crew has officially entered the filming stage"
Wow.
The filming of "Journey to the West" has started!
Heck, Zhu Lin is still on the set of "Youth".
But it doesn’t matter, this TV series will take several years to film, and the filming of the episode "The Kingdom of Women" is still coming.
But if there is a chance, I would like to remind Zhu Lin not to miss this classic role.
The tidbits I saw on the Internet before time travel said that the actress who played "The White Bone Demon" also wanted to play the king of the daughter country, so be sure not to let her snatch it away.
Song Tangtang's letter said that the crew of "Youth" was filming in southern Xinjiang, and she saw Zhu Lin and another beautiful actress Gong Xue.
It's a pity that Director Xie is not Wu Tianmin, so he didn't invite himself to go to Southern Xinjiang to revise the script with the crew, otherwise he really wanted to go to Southern Xinjiang again.
Visiting Song Tangtang, and taking a look at the behind-the-scenes of the shooting of the two beauties, they are probably also good to watch.
When Zhu Lin is filming the episode of "The Kingdom of Girls", he will find a way to visit the set.
That’s it.
This version of Journey to the West is a classic among classics.
Hey, "Journey to the West"
Why didn't I think of another movie "The Legend of Wukong" that subverted this TV series?
Forget it, the movie "The Legend of Monkey King" was so rubbish.
His novel of the same name "The Legend of Wukong" is subversive, and it is also a proper stream of consciousness novel.
