Chapter 74 Beijing University Cinema Hall
Guiding Zou Shifang on writing, Liu Hongmin gradually found his passion for creation. In addition to giving guidance, he slowly began to write "The Ming Dynasty 1566".
Because he has a lot of historical materials about the Ming Dynasty, Liu Hongmin understands that period of history better than Liu Heping, the author of "The Ming Dynasty 1566". When it came to dealing with Hai Rui's situation, Liu Hongmin went even more extreme.
Hai Rui is still appreciated by Liu Heping’s writings. But under Liu Hongmin's writing, Hai Rui has completely become a character that everyone hates.
In 1566, the Ming Dynasty had reached its later stage, and the promotion paths were solidified. If you want to reach a certain level, you must be a Jinshi. Jinshi scholars in the same period all call each other the same year, and they all respect the examiner as their mentor and consider themselves their disciples. As a result, a huge network of relationships was established, forming a huge cultural management group.
Hai Rui was born in Juren. He was like a monkey walking into the crowd. His colleagues around him looked down on him. In addition, he was born in Hainan and was also excluded from other wealthy areas. In this way, Hai Rui became a free man and could only follow Emperor Jiajing.
And he is different from Yan Dang. Yan Dang uses the name of Jiajing to make money for himself, while Hai Rui is an upright official and only wants to be a good official.
As a result, Hai Rui became an alternative among officials. If it weren't for his high demands on himself, the civil service group would want to classify him as a member of the eunuch party. Because in the eyes of civil servants, except that Hai Rui had no contact with eunuchs, what he did was no different from eunuchs. They were both a knife in the hands of Emperor Jiajing.
In Liu Hongmin’s writing, Hai Rui becomes the most special person in the book.
The draft of "The Case of Guillotine Beauty" was revised after three revisions, and was finally approved by Liu Hongmin. However, Zou Shifang still has a long way to go. It took more than half a month to revise "The Case of Guillotine Beauty", and the revision speed is a bit slow.
Fortunately, with the experience of revising the draft of "The Case of Guillotine Beauty", the revision of the next draft will be much smoother. And with the continuous changes to the manuscript, Zou Shifang gradually smoothed Liu Hongmin's writing skills. By mid-April, he finished revising his previous manuscript and started working on the remaining three cases.
This afternoon, Liu Hongmin, Ge Chaoguang and others returned to the courtyard. Ma Weidu was already waiting at home, and Liu Hongmin asked him to help maintain the paintings and calligraphy.
As soon as the basement was opened, the phone in the living room rang.
"Hello? This is Liu Hongmin."
Lin Yong's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Hongmin, you have answered the phone."
Liu Hongmin reminded Said: "Brother Lin, I have class today and just came back."
Lin Yong then said angrily: "I forgot about this, so I said why no one answered the phone when I called your home. ! ”
“Hongmin, the post-production of "Datang" has been completed. I saw the sample film at China Film today and decided to buy it on the spot. This time, the factory made hundreds of thousands. Your blessing."
Liu Hongmin immediately became happy, "Really? Doesn't that mean it will be released in a few days?"
>
"That's great!"
Liu Hongmin suddenly remembered something, "Brother Lin, when China Film sells copies, you can help me buy a set. I plan to collect it as a souvenir."
"Video tapes are very expensive, a set costs ten thousand yuan!"
"It doesn't matter, just keep one set for me when the time comes."
"Okay. Come on! I'll let you know when China Film buys the copy!"
"Thank you, Brother Lin." Lin Yong couldn't help but shake his head as he hung up. He didn't understand Liu Hongmin's brain circuit at all. He didn't even have a movie projector at home, so why buy a video tape? Ten thousand yuan is enough for his salary and subsidies for ten years.
Rich people think differently.
Lin Yong is hard to comment on Liu Hongmin’s hobbies. Regarding the copies, he told China Film Group that they only wanted to sell copies and didn't care whether you used them to display them.
A few days later, Liu Hongmin spent 10,000 yuan and bought a copy. The copy was placed in an iron box and Liu Hongmin kept it in the basement.
Zou Shifang encouraged: "Hongmin, you might as well buy a projector. That thing doesn't cost much."
Liu Hongmin looked at him as if he were a fool, "Are you stupid? Our school is There is a projector.”
Zou Shifang laughed and said, “Didn’t I forget?”
Beijing University has its own cinema, but the films shown are all from a few years ago. . The school's funds are tight and they are not willing to spend money to buy brand-new copies. They buy second-hand copies from movie theaters. I don’t know how many times I have played it. It has either white tracks or white spots on it, which is similar to the outdoor movies Liu Hongmin watched in his hometown in the countryside.
The next day, Liu Hongmin took the copy to school. He and the school applied for the use of the cinema and was quickly approved. So in the afternoon, Liu Hongmin gathered his friends and watched Datang in the movie theater.
The students at Beijing University got the news quickly and ran to the cinema. However, the theater could not accommodate so many people, so many people were blocked outside. They were not dissatisfied because Liu Hongmin promised that they would keep the torture device in the school for a few days to satisfy everyone's desire to watch the movie.
Soon, the movie started.
Although Liu Hongmin watched it for the first time, he was familiar with the plot. He had rehearsed it countless times at Beijing Film Studio. But he was still deeply attracted by the performances of the two veteran actors and stared at the screen intently.
The students were also attracted by the plot of the movie, and there was silence in the theater. As Guo Yuanzheng was killed, Lu Shishi was the only one left, and many girls sobbed softly.
The boys were also in a bad mood, but they didn't say anything. Even if they shed tears, they wiped them away silently, for fear of being discovered by others.
Lu Shishi dragged the silver and walked hard in the desert. After an unknown amount of time, he finally saw an earthen wall.
Kiuci City is right in front of you!
Lu Shishi shouted excitedly, he finally completed the mission assigned to him by Guo Yuanzheng.
The classmates also shouted, they felt the same at this moment. However, before their cheers could end, Lu Shisi fell to the ground.
The camera follows Lu Shishi's perspective, and in the flickering light and darkness, he sees a group of Tang soldiers rushing over.
The screen went dark, and Lu Shishi’s voice-over sounded: “Fortunately... I lived up to my fate!”
The students could not get out of the film for a long time, but at this time the credits began to roll. The credits brought everyone's thoughts back.
Liu Hongmin frowned slightly, feeling that the atmosphere was ruined. If the darkness can last for another minute and a half, it will have an unsatisfactory effect.
But ten seconds of darkness is enough. The students in the theater have not yet come out of the movie, sitting in their seats reluctant to leave. It wasn't until someone opened the door and bright light shone into the theater that the students woke up like a dream.
