Chapter 25 National Day Gift Video
Sending Luo Baoming back to the guest house, Liu Hongmin drove Cha Jianying back to school.
"Hongmin, why don't you ask for more remuneration?"
"If you don't come out, your distant relative is not a generous person."
Zha Jianying nodded, feeling a little dissatisfied with Mr. Jin Yong. What would happen if he paid more royalties? You are so rich.
Liu Hongmin didn't know what Zha Jianying was thinking and continued: "But you don't have to worry, as long as the first part has results, they will take the initiative to find me."
"It will definitely be possible. Although Shaobao is a serious literary work, it has an advantage in publishing in Xiangjiang. They are popular in entertainment, especially martial arts novels, which also contain martial arts elements and have a wider audience than serious literary works."
“I thought so too, that’s why I dared to sign one by one with him.”
“You don’t have to worry about getting enough money to buy a house this time, right?”
< br>“I really have to thank you.”
"Hey, how are you going to thank me?"
Liu Hongmin thought for a while. In this era of scarcity of supplies, it is difficult to buy gifts and sell them.
"How about I treat you to dinner?"
Zha Jianying slapped him on the back, "You know how to eat."
"Then What are you doing without eating?"
Zha Jianying rolled her eyes, "Please let me watch a movie!"
"Watch a movie?" Liu Hongmin was surprised. How much is the movie ticket? ?
"A gift film will be released during the National Day. Didn't Chen Jiangong say before that he participated in this project! Let's go and see together, what kind of movie is it?"
"Okay! "Liu Hongmin is also very curious. He also has a good relationship with Chen Jiangong. He was also quite curious about the movie that his friend was involved in producing.
So, on National Day, the two met at the school gate early in the morning, and then went to the cinema together.
Liu Hongmin searched at the entrance of the cinema, but he didn't see anyone selling popcorn or Coke. After entering the cinema, there were quite a lot of people inside.
There are no entertainment items in this era. Watching movies is a pastime for many people. In this era, movie tickets only cost one or two cents, but they could already earn hundreds of millions at the box office. Until the 1990s, due to various reasons, the film market gradually declined, and reforms had to be carried out before it grew again.
“Are you sure this is the movie in which Chen Jiangong participated?”
Liu Hongmin asked, pointing to the movie poster.
Zha Jianying was also stunned, "Didn't he say it was about the capitalist roaders?"
On the poster was a girl wearing armor, holding a handful of soil. Obviously, this is a period film, and the title is also weird.
"Aolei Yilan"?
“This kind of name is a bit weird.”
“It should be a personal name.” Liu Hongmin analyzed: “If it can be a National Day gift film or a costume film, it must resist invasion. "
Zha Jianying turned around and asked, "Do you still want to read it?"
"You've come here, but if you don't watch it, wouldn't it be in vain?"
Liu Hongmin finally gave himself a holiday today. How would he spend his time if he didn't watch this movie? What's more, he promised to accompany Cha Jianying to watch a movie, how could he break his promise?
So, the two of them lined up to buy movie tickets. When I got it, I found that it was around three o'clock in the afternoon.
"Let's go eat first. It's just in time to come over after dinner." Zha Jianying was also speechless. She didn't expect there would be so many people. These were all tickets after three or four games.
The two of them had a meal at a small restaurant nearby. Before leaving, Liu Hongmin asked for two bottles of Arctic Ocean. "The bottles will be sent back to you after watching the movie."
There are no plastic bottles these days, they are all glass bottles and must be recycled.
I met an old man popping popcorn on the road, and Liu Hongmin went up to buy some. When they arrived at the cinema, everyone was staring at these two guys who were eating and drinking.
Zha Jianying was a little embarrassed, "Hongmin, isn't it a little bad to eat in a cinema?"
"What's so bad? The eyes and brain used to watch movies, there are No hands or mouth. People in Hong Kong’s movie theaters sell popcorn and coke. We should also learn from them. This is called being in line with international standards. ”
Zha Jianying was speechless, but it was difficult to say anything. It was she who told Liu Hongmin about selling popcorn and coke in Xiangjiang Cinema.
“Let’s go!”
Liu Hongmin called Cha Jianying and followed the crowd into the cinema. After finding the seat according to the ticket, Liu Hongmin took Zha Jianying to sit down, and then delivered the bag of popcorn to Zha Jianying.
Zha Jianying was embarrassed to take it, but soon the lights in the theater were turned off, so Zha Jianying grabbed a handful like a thief.
Liu Hongmin laughed and grabbed a handful of popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth.
“Creak!”
A bit hard, not as good as the big popcorn in the future.
But conditions are limited, so just make do with it!
Soon, the movie started.
Sure enough, Liu Hongmin was right. This costume film is indeed about resisting invasion. It tells the story of Aolei Yilan who participated in the desperate struggle to defend the country against Russian invaders in the mid-17th century. In this cruel struggle, she grew from an innocent Daur girl to a heroine who led her tribe and nation to fight the Russian invaders to the end.
Liu Hongmin looked very embarrassed in this film. It's not that the film was poorly shot, but that the films of this era had just broken away from the stereotypes of model films, and even the realistic style still didn't look that realistic. For those who are used to watching movies from the future thirty years or so, and then watching the movies now, they will feel very fake.
Zha Jianying didn't have this problem and watched it with gusto.
“It seems pretty good!”
“The story is very good.” Liu Hongmin said: “There is a hint of Hua Mulan joining the army for her father. There were many such stories in ancient times, each They are all spread far and wide."
Zha Jianying raised her eyebrows, "Do you know other stories about women joining the army?"
Liu Hongmin said with a smile, "There are many, Princess Pingyang, Mrs. Xian, Qin Liangyu..."
Zha Jianying blinked, "Hongmin, can you tell me their story?"
"Tell me about Princess Pingyang!"< br>
While riding a bicycle, Liu Hongmin told Zha Jianying about Princess Pingyang’s deeds.
"Princess Pingyang was the third daughter of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty. She was married to Chai Shao in her early years. This Chai Shao later became one of the twenty-four heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty. The two of them were very important to the Tang Dynasty. Chai Shao made great contributions to Li Yuan's army and was often the first to enter the battlefield. He was a brave general. ”
"Princess Pingyang is even more powerful than Chai Shao. When Li Yuan raised troops in Jinyang, Princess Pingyang was in Chang'an. In order to support her father, she sold the Li family's property in Chang'an, recruited hundreds of refugees, and contacted anti-Sui armies from various places. , and soon the number of troops in hand reached tens of thousands. The Sui Dynasty army attacked Princess Pingyang's army many times, but was defeated by Princess Pingyang. Even the Sui Dynasty general Qu Tutong was not her opponent because Princess Pingyang's military discipline was very good. She was so strict that the people respected her as Lady Li and called her army the Women's Army. "
"After reuniting with her father, Princess Pingyang was sent to Shanxi to guard Li Yuan's base camp. She led the army to station in Shanxi. From then on, Weize Pass in Pingding County was renamed Niangzi Pass..."
