Chapter 664 Circle
Fang Minghua initially thought it was a waiter. When he opened the door, he saw a handsome middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and tie standing at the door, looking at him with a smile.
It turned out to be Lu Haiyi!
"Mr. Lu?!" Fang Minghua greeted.
Seeing Fang Minghua's surprised expression, Haiyi explained: I was just flipping through the guest registration book at the bar, and I accidentally saw your name coming. Why didn't you say hello? They're all friends. Don't call me anything, it's too foreign. ”
"Haha, you are a busy man. I don't want to disturb you, so come in and chat." Fang Minghua explained with a smile and greeted the other party to come in.
When Hai Ti sat on the sofa, Fang Minghua was about to pour tea for him. Just as he was about to open the bagged tea provided in the hotel, he was stopped by Hai Ti.
"Minghua, how can you drink this kind of labor protection tea? Wait a minute." After saying that, Haiyi picked up the phone on the coffee table and dialed a number: "Office? I am Lu Haiyi, let me Xiao Liu went to my office to deliver Dahongpao and the tea set to room 219, and brought my eldest brother along the way."
After making the call, Lu Hai smiled and said to Fang Minghua: "I'm Minghua. I know you like to drink Longjing, but I only have Dahongpao in my office. I like to drink that stuff, so I’ll give it to you.”
“Dahongpao is a good tea. My friend Zhao Hongjun likes to drink this.” Fang Minghua said with a smile.
"Zhao Hongjun? Is he Director Zhao of Shengshi Group? Does he have this hobby? Then when he arrives in Yanjing, you must tell him to come to me and let us have a good cup of tea."
"No problem, It's a good thing to meet friends over tea."
The two chatted for a while, and Hai Yi asked Fang Minghua the purpose of coming to Yanjing. Fang Minghua didn't hide anything, he was just here to participate in a work seminar.
"Minghua, I have read your "In the Name of the People" which is really good. It has high literary value and readability! I admire it!"
"Hai Yi, You won the award. Is your book "A Romantic Affair" also very popular among readers?"
"A Romantic Affair" is a novel just published this year. It tells the story of a young policewoman, Lu Yueyue, who is involved in a complicated emotional entanglement, family disputes and gang struggles in order to carry out the task of tracking down the national treasure cultural relic violin. story.
Later it was turned into a very popular TV series, and it is considered one of Haiyi’s masterpieces.
After hearing this, Haiyi shook his head: "It is true that this book is popular among readers, but when it comes to literary quality, it is far inferior to your book. Minghua, have you ever been to the United States, is there a book there? Are books called bestsellers? "
"Yes, at the end of the 19th century, the American "Book Reader" published a list of the "best-selling books" in bookstores in 19 cities in the United States. The term "bestsellers" From this, it generally refers to books that are very popular within a period of time and are very in line with readers' tastes," Fang Minghua replied.
“Yes, my book may be considered a bestseller at most, but it may not be a good book and it may not necessarily have much literary value.” Hai Wei said.
"You don't know how many writers are envious of being able to become a bestseller before it's too late."
"That's true, I'm satisfied."
The two were talking, one was very The beautiful girl brought the tea set and tea leaves, arranged the tea set with quick hands and feet, and started to make tea while squatting down.
Warm the cup, pour the tea, brew the tea, and make the soup. The whole process is smooth and smooth, and it is pleasing to the eye. It seems that I do this often.
“Try it.”
Fang Minghua picked up a cup and tasted it: "The taste is mellow, the aftertaste is long, and it has a bit of exotic orchid aroma. It's really the best." "I got this from a friend with great difficulty. You can't buy it on the market at all." Hai Wei Somewhat proud.
When it comes to drinking tea, the best tea is to drink it with someone who understands tea.
The two were drinking and chatting. At this time, Hai Yi said: "Minghua, you often come to Yanjing for business trips, right?"
"Yes, there are meetings of the National Writers Association, and various For literary seminars, my wife’s grandparents are also in Yanjing, so I come often.”
"But you come here often, but rarely come to see us."
"Hey, you are all very busy, so I can't disturb you." Fang Minghua laughed.
"Isn't it because of the two major circles in the literary and art circles? One is your northwest circle, and the other is the Beijing circle."
Huh?
Fang Minghua did not expect Hai Yi to say this suddenly.
In fact, Haiyi is right.
Now in the domestic literary and art circles, there are several circles, such as Beijing Circle, Shanghai Circle, Northwest Circle, Hunan Circle, etc. If you include Hong Kong Circle, there is also Hong Kong Circle. However, now that Hong Kong has not returned, everyone is on their own. Playing.
But the two largest circles are undoubtedly the Beijing Circle and the Northwest Circle.
The capital of Yanjing, the domestic political and cultural center, has always been the leader in everything from literature to film and television, but recently it has been violently impacted by the northwest circle represented by Qin Province.
Needless to say literature, the Qin army showed great power in its two eastern expeditions. In the film and television industry, first the rise of Xiying Film Studio defeated Beijing Film Studio and became the leader in the domestic film industry, and then the establishment of Shengshi Film and Television, which successively produced several excellent film and television dramas. There is a faint tendency to replace Xiying Film Studio and once again become a domestic film company. Brother status, and it is also a private enterprise!
This made everyone in the circle envious and jealous, especially the newly-rising disciples in Yanjing who felt unhappy.
They were all born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. Moreover, they are the second generation of various kinds. They can't even beat those workers' sons and mud-legged people in the northwest circle!
Actually, for Fang Minghua, he doesn't care much about this.
Circles have existed in all times and places, but what’s the point of fighting each other? Do you have the ability to go abroad and fight with foreigners?
Whether it is literature or film and television works, wouldn’t it be nice to export more to foreign countries to enhance the country’s cultural soft power?
Moreover, don’t I still have a close relationship with Wang Meng, Shi Tiiesheng, Liu Zhenyun, and Yu Hua, who is now half a Yanjing native?
There is also Feng Xiaoning from the film and television industry. Although he was born in Xijing, he has lived in Yanjing since he was a child. There is also Ge You, who is a serious person who has been in Beijing circles for a long time, but he has a good relationship.
Actually, Wang Shuo and Zheng Xiaolong, the big boys in the courtyard, are a bit wrong with each other.
Of course, if these big boys don’t contact him, he won’t take the initiative to lick them. They can just play with each other.
Now I suddenly heard Haiyi say this, Fang Minghua smiled and said: "Haiyi, you said the northwest circle of Beijing Circle, I admit it. After all, these two places can be said to have carried the domestic literary and art circles. Half of the world, but if you say fight, it’s just competition with each other.”
"Besides, the domestic market is so big, and there are even broader foreign markets, can't it accommodate these two circles?"
"You are right, I think so too. Competition is true, but mutual communication More importantly, I'm treating Ma Weidu, Liu Zhenyun, Zhao Baogang, and Ge You to your house tonight. I heard that they even had dinner at your house after attending the "Alive" celebration party."
"Okay, that's fine. Fang Minghua replied with a smile.
"What about Wang Shuo? Call him up too?" Hai Yi looked at Fang Minghua.
