Chapter 436 It’s all Gu Lu’s fault
"There is a very talented filmmaker with some ideas..."
Before Guo Dafa finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Lu, "Brother Guo, the filmmaker you are talking about is not your own director - Guo Fan, who you told me a few days ago, right?"
"It's him, he has ambition and talent." Guo Dafa said, "If I were to choose a talker for China's seventh-generation director, I would choose him. He said he would lay a solid foundation for China Heavy Industry's science fiction films!"< br>
"So, you decided to invest 60 million?" Gu Lu continued.
"This investment has also been approved by Mr. Da Gu..." Guo Dafa didn't know either. He obviously planned to invest millions to support it, but he was excited for some reason.
He changed the topic and said, "Guo Fan told me what he was saying. Although the more investment in "The Wandering Earth" the better, you may encounter various resistances when making this type of film."
< br>
We've known each other for less than a month, and we're already talking to each other? Gu Lu quietly waited on the phone for the other party's next statement.
"Director Guo said something very realistic. If the filming is completed, it would be very scary for such a large investment to be blocked in the review." Guo Dafa said, "But if our company participates in the investment, plus "The Wanderer" "Earth" is the work of Teacher Dagu, so it is 99% safe."
"This is the view shared by Guo Fan and I," Guo Dafa said. "The reason why I didn't say it was 100% is because nothing is certain. The reason why I have this confidence is because of your reputation in China, Teacher Dagu." Ah!”
It’s prestige, not influence. Guo Dafa didn’t use the wrong word. “Teacher Dagu, your prestige comes from Young China, from the Diplomacy Trilogy, and from a series of officials such as benchmarks, leaders, representatives, and advanced figures.” The media party’s evaluation of Teacher Da Gu ”
Taking "representatives" as an example, the spokesperson of the diplomatic unit said, "The U.S.'s baseless criticism of my country's exam-oriented education is superficial and bad. The U.S. has color... The U.S. reporter cited many examples of gifted students, then We also cite a representative of Chinese genius: Gu Lu.”
The United States has repeatedly criticized China for fabricating facts out of thin air. The spokesperson's response at the press conference.
In fact, the United States wants to fool people with happy education again, and even talks about a certain scientific research genius in its own country. China mentions Gu Lu, on the one hand, to protect scientific research geniuses, and on the other hand, Gu Lu's record will not fall behind under any circumstances.
After telling the story, Guo Dafa asked, "Teacher Dagu, do you think that in this case, domestic publicity may hinder your investment works?"
"Similarly, the same applies to the Hanfu Association. If Mr. Da Gu joins, it will only delay the review. Will the review unit dare to call back?" Guo Dafa said.
Damn it, am I already such a dick without knowing it? But I didn't win any important literary awards... Gu Lu suddenly came back to his senses, and he realized that he was obsessed.
Winning a heavyweight literary award is just one way to accumulate prestige. Gu Lu's path can be said to be more upright - national recognition.
If you advance, you can become a shield for scientific research geniuses, if you retreat, you can help the country's diplomacy, and in the middle, you can become a benchmark for young people. What kind of cost-effectiveness is this?
"Then I have to be careful not to join certain associations." Gu Lu remembered the lessons learned from the past.
"Of course, in addition to what I said above, another point is that Teacher Dagu, as an expert in the six core think tanks, represents the official attitude." Guo Dafa said, "But my position is for the Hanfu Promotion Association. I have no objection to rectifying the market for costume photography. We are the referee and it will be beneficial to us. Teacher Da Gu needs to consider the specific details. I have already analyzed everything I know.”
"Okay." Gu Lu responded, and then Guo Dafa said that Guo Fan wanted to meet him.
See me? Is it consultation with the original author of the adapted work? It was normal. Gu Lu agreed and asked Guo Dafa to make an appointment.
After all he had to say, Gu Lu hung up the phone.
"In recent years, there has been no need to strain the muscles and bones, so the positioning of oneself is not as clear as the onlookers." Gu Lu summarized the reasons, and his mind quickly jumped to another thing.
"Although awards are just the icing on the cake for me, there are still flowers to be had. After a while, when the serialization of People's Literature is almost complete, a collection will be published." Gu Lu thought to himself.
Because it will be too late if I don’t win the Zhuang Chongwen Literature Award. This award is the most famous award for young writers in the country, and King Guru is just a common man. Is there any reason not to take good things?
Before going to bed tonight, the last thing I thought about was whether I would be a member of the Hanfu Promotion Association or not?
His sleep quality was quite high, and even lightning and thunder could not wake him up unless someone told him that it would be eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
Gu Lu slept, but the world did not sleep, so everything continued to happen, including the subsequent fermentation of Gu Lu's recovery from the Seven Deadly Sins.
Apart from promoting his new book, he spends most of his time dead, so he suddenly did something else, which surprised netizens.
Looking at the content again, there are many sympathetic comments.
Of course, other people's children, Gu Lu, mainly caused harm to the southwest and areas close to the south. When he went to the north, his influence declined.
But that doesn’t stop netizens from making memes.
"Family, I found the reason why I have been single for twenty-seven years", "It turns out that I am not prone to obesity, it turns out it's just because of Gu Lu!", "So, I failed in the exam?", "I didn't go ashore..."
Blame the society for being too blaming, blame the parents and the family for a sigh, blame yourself for being depressed. Now there is a standard answer. Even if it is just a joke, it can be used as a painless vent.
Ever since, on the night when Gu Lu fell asleep, "It's all King Gulu's fault" and "It's all Gu Lu's fault" have become common memes.
The reason why it is a small meme is because the current Internet changes too fast. Whatever is popular in the past two days will be extinguished after two days, and it will not wait for it to spread across the country. For example, the "Wei Yimin" and "Wang Zibin" memes are widely circulated, but many netizens have never heard of them.
"It's all Gu Lu's fault, we just worked overtime!" Xiao Lu propped up his bent waist and beat it with his hands. At the same time, he stood up and twisted from side to side.
Reviewing all booth reports is a low-tech job but requires concentration and a lot of time.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If the leader hears this, he will definitely ask you to write a self-criticism." Lao Xing said, "This will affect your official career."
"Ahem, Brother Xing, I'm just kidding." Xiaolu immediately took out his cell phone and told him about the current situation of the Internet.
I don’t know what’s so good about this. Lao Xing's first reaction was followed by emotion. Teacher Gu Lu was so famous that so many people could discuss anything he said.
The last thing Lao Xing said was, "Others can play with this joke, but we can't say it casually. Let's do something quickly, the event is only a few days away."
Xiaolu also realized the problem. They were currently a temporarily formed department in Dukou District, called the "Little Prince Activity Organization Temporary Headquarters". As the name suggests, they specialized in preparing activities and cooperating with Gu Lu.
Furthermore, the fact that Xiaolu and Lao Xing had such a heavy workload really had something to do with Gu Lu.
It doesn't matter, you can make jokes, but if it matters, don't talk nonsense.
"Brother Xing, tell me, who will Gu Lu invite?" Xiao Lu asked. Officials in Dukou District were not stupid, and they probably guessed that Gu Lu's surprise was to invite celebrities to the scene.
"When I work, I call myself Teacher Gu Lu." Lao Xing said, "Our activities are for the second dimension, so we must invite some domestic COSER."
Lao Xing, who is thirty-four or five years old, is not completely incomprehensible, because as a child born in the 1980s, he also likes to watch neon animations such as Dragon Ball, and he still knows a little bit about ACG.
"Boss Li is really lucky. I wonder if I can create a few more bosses this time." Xiaolu is a native of Dukou District. The Boss Li he talks about is Sister Li who used to make lemon tea by hand and is now the proprietress of the morning milk tea shop.
Last week, there was an interview in "Fog City Daily". He made the down payment for a house (more than 200,000 yuan) in half a year. He was extremely wealthy.
"As a writer, I feel that I am invincible." Xiaolu said, "Have I ever seen any living author who can boost people's livelihood and economy?"
"Don't think so much, and don't point your fingers at Teacher Gu Lu," Lao Xing said, "Teacher Gu Lu gave us this opportunity, and we need to take care of the rest."
For example, Dukou District officials are now discussing how to transform the city. The popularity of "Hingguo" will definitely fade away. What will we do then?
Little Prince activities are a way to extend your popularity. Take advantage of the good opportunity to find a new outlet. Is it possible that if you eat Gu Lu, you can still eat it for the rest of your life? To strike iron, you still need to be strong.
Lao Xing and the Dukou District officials thought so.
The two of them are also working overtime tonight. People from the temporary headquarters have been transferred from various positions, but they are both very busy...
Early the next morning, Gu Lu got up.
It is said that young people nowadays like to sleep in. In fact, as long as young people go to bed before twelve o'clock, most of them can get up.
Going out today was a little different than usual. Gu Lu packed up more formally.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
"Mr. Gu", "Hello Teacher Gu", "I am so lucky to see Teacher Gu today.", "Hello Mr. Gu"...
There seems to be a green tea hidden among all the question marks?
No matter what, Gu Lu arrived at the office that he would not visit for a long time.
Today Hegemony Society is coming to consult on the details of the adaptation. Gu Lu is not a new writer, so animation companies came to Sijiu City.
I seem to have forgotten to introduce domestic companies. The domestic copyright agency and development headquarters are located in Chaoyang, Sijiu City.
Five floors of the building were rented. With the release of "From the New World" and subsequent new games, the space and manpower seemed to be a bit insufficient.
In particular, they are also cooperating with Guangguang to develop a new era of martial arts series. Guo Dafa has recently hired headhunters to poach a lot of talents.
Getting back to the subject, Gu Lu thought he had arrived early enough and had just picked up a pack of biscuits and a box of yogurt in the rest room to have for breakfast.
Unexpectedly, the secretary had informed him that Vice President Takagi of the Hegemony Club was already waiting in the conference room.
"Isn't the time we agreed to meet at ten o'clock?" Gu Lu glanced at his phone and saw that it was only half past nine.
"They arrived at the company at nine o'clock sharp...According to what Vice President Takagi said, you must arrive early to show respect when visiting famous writers." The secretary responded, her voice a little helpless. Because you come so early, it means that the company has to take care of the reception in advance.
The Neon people did a good job with the small gifts, otherwise how could they cover up the lost virtue?
"Okay," Gu Lu stopped eating the biscuits, poked the box open, and drank the yogurt in a few mouthfuls. Just follow the secretary and arrive at the conference room.
There are two neon gold figures in the conference room, one tall and one short. The short one is probably the vice president of Hegemony Club, Takagi, because he sits in the center and wears glasses. The one on the back is taller and younger, and may be the secretary.
"Hello, President Takagi, you have come all the way to trouble me." Gu Lu's opening remarks were quite polite.
Then, to Gu Lu's surprise, a taller, more handsome and marginal man stood up and held Gu Lu's hand, "Hello, Teacher Gu Lu, my name is Gao Muye. I like your works very much, especially "The Wandering Earth" ", I think it is one of the best science fiction short stories of the 21st century"
Gu Lu could barely understand Japanese, "Who is this?"
"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce you. This is my translator, Mr. Uyei." Takakino bowed quickly and introduced.
Therefore, the judgment was completely wrong. Gu Lu felt strange that because of the strict hierarchy of superiors and subordinates, the seating should not be wrong.
Well, Gu Lu's doubts can be put to rest for now, because it won't affect the rest of the conversation.
……
On the way home from the company.
"Come to my house for dinner..."
"No, no, another day, next time. I'm a little busy today."
Gu Lu quickly refused and hung up on President Jian on the grounds that something was wrong.
I feel a little bit weak towards Auntie Shang for the time being. The reason for this is not because of Uncle Jian’s surprise on National Day last time. Gu Lu was a little careful. He wanted Uncle Jian to be more honest, so he made a small change in the plan...
The effect was not as good as expected, but it achieved the effect Uncle Jian wanted. Aunt Fang no longer indulged in some of the children's remarks.
More details later, more important stuff, the UK's "Gloom in Weymouth" is released today, exactly 9am London time.
At the press conference, Kane, Duran and others were present, as well as TV reporters. A transoceanic video interview.
Professor Lu couldn't really stay away from work for four or five days, so he had no choice but to "appear" via video link.
Yao Xiaoju, a TV reporter, Kane, Duran, and a certain British literary critic sat in a circle.
Puffin Books gave "Gloom in Weymouth" the highest level of publicity. After all, it has been serialized for so many years and its popularity is quite high. It is understandable that it would be invited to a TV station for live broadcast on the Internet.
Amidst the large investment of resources in publicity, there is a potential that everyone in the UK is looking forward to - except Weymouth.
Didi didi.
After the connection was established, Gu Lu greeted everyone. The internet speed is pretty good, no lags, and his English is good enough for communication.
One set of clothes can be used for two purposes. What Gu Lu wore during the video connection was the same outfit he wore when he went to the company headquarters in the morning.
After saying hello, the TV reporters seemed eager to come out with good things to attract attention.
"Mr. Kane, we all know that you were a reporter for The Sun a few years ago and made racist remarks to Mr. Gu, which led to the birth of this work. So what is your opinion now?" the reporter asked.
