Zhou Yan rubbed his shoulders, and then said to the employee of Caixing Company who was dozing next to him, "Xiao Chen, it's time to finish the work."
Xiao Chen woke up in a daze, rubbed his eyes and said, "It's already Have you finished reading, Director Zhou?"
"Well, you can put the straps away now."
Xiao Chen looked at his watch and nodded, "Yes, I'll go. Call Huang Si together.”
……
After Zhou Yan returned home, he did not go to bed immediately. Instead, he went to the piano room first and started sorting out the things he had memorized today.
The scores I wrote before still need some adjustments.
After working until about two o'clock and solving all the major problems, Zhou Yan washed up and went to bed.
The next morning, as soon as Zhou Yan woke up, he received a call from Lou Ye. Lou Ye said that he wanted to report to him about the situation of the filming location.
Because Zhou Yan had to complete the soundtrack for "Westward Journey" today, the two made an appointment to meet at the studio.
Nine o'clock, Zhou Yan's office.
Lou Ye handed a piece of information to Zhou Yan with a little regret on his face, "I visited many places, but unfortunately, none of them perfectly met the requirements. There are several places It’s okay, I took photos.”
Zhou Yan nodded and looked through the information.
It can be seen that Lou Ye was not lazy, he did find a lot of places.
As for the several places where he took pictures, basically only one or two scenes were ideal, and the overall situation did not meet the framing requirements at all.
None of the filming locations Lou Ye found could be used.
However, what Lou Ye did was not useless at all. At least some of the photos he took gave Zhou Yan some reference.
"We have worked hard during this period. Since we have not found a satisfactory filming location, we will adopt plan B. We will find a place to build one." Zhou Yan took out a document from the drawer and gave it to Lou Ye, "Here is I’m going to find a place to build a school there. Please familiarize yourself with the information as soon as possible.”
“Jiangjun Tuo?” Lou Ye looked at the information in his hand, “Director Zhou. Have you already had an idea?”
“If you can’t find one ready, building one in Jiangjuntuo is my first choice, but we still have to go to the site to see for sure. , we will go there together in two days.”
Lou Ye nodded, "If you want to build it yourself, you need to hurry up. The early design and project approval will take time."
"Don't worry about this, Tomson will help solve the problem. .”
“Well, that’s true.”
Thomson specializes in real estate, so this small project is naturally a win-win for them.
Lou Ye sat in Zhou Yan's office for half an hour and then left. After he left, Zhou Yan looked at the information he handed over again, then got up and left the office.
After walking out of the studio building, Zhou Yan walked straight towards the office building of the electronics factory.
Just now at the door of the factory director's office on the third floor, Zhou Yan heard a noise coming from inside.
"Director Li, the factory's poor performance cannot be blamed on us. We didn't say anything when the materials distributed during the Mid-Autumn Festival were halved. How can we still deduct wages?"
"Yes, does the factory have the power not to pay wages?"
"Have the factory leaders been paid wages?"
Then I heard Li Xiuhai say, "Please be patient and listen to me first. It's not that wages are not being paid in the factory. Instead, 30% of wages will be paid at the end of the year. Don't worry, by the end of the year, you won't be missing a penny." Yours, the factory office has notified you about this matter before.”
“When did the factory office notify you?”
“The factory office has issued the document, maybe you have. No attention.”
“That means the notification is not in place!”
“You guys...”
Zhou Yan was listening outside when suddenly office director Xu Jinfeng ran over in a hurry.
He didn't even notice that it was Zhou Yan standing at the door. He rushed into the office and shouted as soon as he entered, "Qin Daohai, Ni Yongliang, who asked you two to come over? I have already explained to you. After that, your wages will not be reduced in the factory. They will be paid at the end of the year. Are you taking my words as fart? You still come to the factory director. I think you are out of your mind. I tell you, other factories are now. They are all laying off workers, but Factory Director Li is kind and unwilling to let our factory workers be laid off, so he is trying his best to keep you here."
"It's better for you, dogs bite Lu Dongbin, and you don't know a good heart, so you want me. Look, Director Li, don’t worry about their life and death, just lay them off to save trouble.”
At this time, Director Li said, “Director Xu, don’t be so fierce when talking and doing things. We must communicate well with comrades in the factory. I also believe that comrades are sensible, upright and can communicate well. If the factory encounters difficulties, we think of rough layoffs, which is irresponsible of our leadership team and gives every comrade a chance. This is what we should do to tide over the difficulties together with everyone."
Li Xiuhai and Xu Jinfeng started this series of tricks, and the two workers stopped talking.
After a while, one of them said, "Director Li, Director Xu, we are not here to make trouble..."
Before the man could finish speaking, Xu Jinfeng pulled him and said, "First That’s it, that’s it for today. Come out with me and don’t disturb Director Li.”
After a while, Zhou Yan saw Xu Jinfeng pulling two young people out.
This time Xu Jinfeng noticed that it was Zhou Yan standing at the door. He was surprised and said, "Teacher Zhou, why are you here?"
Li Xiuhai inside also hurriedly heard this. Ran over, "Teacher Zhou, you are here."
He said to Xu Jinfeng again, "Director Xu, please bring the two comrades back to the line first."
"Okay, director, Teacher Zhou, I will leave first."
"Well, Director Xu, you are busy."
After Xu Jinfeng and the others left, Li Xiuhai invited Zhou Yan into the office and busily poured him tea.
"Teacher Zhou, why do you have time to come to my place today?"
Although they both work in the same factory, Zhou Yan doesn't usually come to see Li Xiuhai. Li Xiuhai, on the other hand, likes to hang out in the studio when he has nothing to do.
In Li Xiuhai’s words, he also wanted to be influenced by elegant culture.
"There is something I want you to discuss. I didn't expect to see such a thing as just now."
Li Xiuhai handed the tea cup to Zhou Yan and sighed slightly, "Oh, I made you laugh. Factory." In the recession, all kinds of troubles have emerged."
Li Xiuhai has always been open about the difficulties in operating electronics factories in front of Zhou Yan. not good.
Among the short guys, I chose the tall one, and the one in their electronics factory performed well.
As Xu Jinfeng said, many factories have begun to lay off workers.
"Difficulties are only temporary and will eventually be overcome." Zhou Yan said.
"This is natural. No matter what, I firmly believe that as long as we firmly obey the country's command, all difficulties are paper tigers and will eventually be solved." Li Xiuhai sang a high-pitched line, and then asked Zhou Yan, "Zhou Yan What did the teacher come to talk to me about?”
“I want to talk about Building 3,” Zhou Yan said straight to the point.
"Building No. 3?" Li Xiuhai's eyes lit up, "Does your studio have any idea to rent Building No. 3?"
"Yes, the conditions will be in accordance with the standards at the warehouse, Director Li. What do you think?”
“No problem at all,” Li Xiuhai agreed immediately.
When the warehouse was rented, the conditions given by Zhou Yan were quite good. Li Xiuhai was of course willing to rent Building 3 under those conditions.
During this period, Li Xiuhai actually thought about renting Building 3 to others, but no one was interested. Siyuan Foreign Trade, who competed with Zhou Yan last time, did not dare to take over.
There were other people interested, but the conditions given were far different from those given by Zhou Yan, so Building 3 was never rented out.
Zhou Yan knew that he could have lowered the price with Li Xiuhai and saved some money, but he did not do so because he did not want to waste time on this matter. The rent was nothing to him.
Seeing Li Xiuhai agree, Zhou Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone come over and sign a contract with the factory later."
"Yes, as long as your contract is drafted, we can sign it at any time. "
"One more thing is that after building No. 3 is rented, we will expand the original fence to surround the warehouse and Building No. 3. "
"This is what it should be."
Zhou Yan picked up the teacup and took a sip, then stood up, "In that case, I have nothing else to do, so I won't disturb Director Li's work."
"Don't bother, don't bother. If you don't mind the crude tea here, Teacher Zhou can come and sit down at any time." "I'll bother you again when I have the chance."
After that, Zhou Yan Just left.
Li Xiuhai walked all the way to the door, returned to his desk and sat down with a relaxed smile on his face. Someone would give him a pillow when he felt sleepy.
Zhou Yan rented the warehouse and paid them regular rent, which has solved many problems in the factory.
Why their factory hasn’t started laying off employees yet has a lot to do with the rent.
Now that Zhou Yan has to rent Building 3 again, the pressure on the factory is suddenly reduced a lot.
If Zhou Yan didn't rent it, these two buildings would need to be cleaned and maintained regularly. Although it doesn't cost much, it is still an expense.
Now that it is rented to Zhou Yan, they not only save the money, but also get extra rent.
Actually, it was not Li Xiuhai who had the final say to rent Building 3 to Zhou Yan. Such a big matter had to be voted on at the meeting.
But Li Xiuhai is not worried at all. With the current situation in the factory, who doesn’t want to make some money? Besides, this is not the first time, one to two is very simple.
......
In the next few days, there was a meeting in the factory to finalize the matter of Building No. 3, and then Liu Hang began to sign a contract with the factory.
The team of the film studio has not yet been formed, so Liu Hang needs to be more attentive in the early stage.
The factory was working on building No. 3, and Zhou Yan took the director team to Jiangjuntuo and roughly decided on the location of the school.
It’s just that they don’t count when they finalize it. The specific address needs to be determined based on approval and exploration.
In fact, there shouldn’t be any big problems in approving exploration. There is no development here in Jiangjuntuo. It is not difficult to get approval to build a school on a small piece of land. As for exploration, this kind of small ordinary building , there is no big problem wherever it is built, unless during exploration, some mineral veins, oil and the like are discovered underground.
……
Just as Zhou Yan was leading the director team to select a location in Jiangjuntuo, a collection of novels by him, Yu Hua, and Shi Tiezhen was already on sale in Neon.
Shueisha has strong publicity capabilities. The publicity for the novel started one month before it was released.
So after the collection was released, the popularity was pretty good.
However, it can only be said that it is okay, and it cannot be compared with the hot scene when Zhou Yan's music album was released.
In fact, Shueisha considered bundling the novel collection with Zhou Yan's music album for sale, but in the end it didn't happen.
As Zhou Yan's biggest fans, Pinsong and Guang had long been paying attention to Zhou Yan's novel collection, so after school that afternoon, he immediately ran to the bookstore and bought a copy of "Zhou Yan, Yu Hua, Shi Tiesheng".
Hiramatsu and Hiroshi originally thought that many people would buy this book, but when they arrived at the bookstore, they found that it was not as popular as he had imagined.
He stood next to the new bookshelf for more than ten minutes before he saw the second customer who came to buy this book. This was far different from the situation when new books by well-known mystery novelists were put on the shelves. .
Before Tanakamaji and the others arrived, Hiramatsu and Hiro opened the book and read it, but after reading for a while, he couldn't stand it anymore.
Although Hiramatsu Kazuhiro is very obsessed with Zhou Yan, he must admit that Zhou Yan's novels are not suitable for him.
This is not to say that Zhou Yan's novels are not good. Although Hiramatsu Kazuhiro has no research on literature, he can still feel that Zhou Yan's novels have a literary flavor, but it is precisely the literary flavor that makes them not suitable for him.
Hirasatsu Kazuhiro prefers novels that are thrilling and enjoyable to read, and the novels in "Zhou Yan, Yu Hua, Shi Tieshou" obviously do not fall into this category.
“Perhaps this is just a high-key and low-key thing.” Pinsong and Guangwei sighed slightly.
What surprised Hiramatsu and Hiroshi was that the boy sitting not far away from him was actually reading this book with great concentration.
This boy is probably in his twenties, probably a college student.
When Hiramatsu and Guangzhou arrived, the boy was already sitting here, and he must have been reading for a while. He had almost finished the book by now.
He is a little curious, does this boy like this kind of novel, and what will the boy's evaluation of this collection be like?
Maybe it was because Hiramatsu and Hiro stared at the boy for too long, the boy turned his head with a puzzled expression, "Excuse me, is something wrong?"
Hirasatsu and Hiro touched it in embarrassment Touching his head, "I'm sorry, I just saw you reading "Zhou Yan, Yu Hua, Shi Tiesheng", so I was a little curious."
The boy also noticed the book in Pinsong and Guang's hands, "You are reading too ?”
"Well, I like Zhou Yan very much. I came here specifically to buy this book today."
The boy showed an unexpected expression, "Is Zhou Yan a famous writer? This is my first time reading his novel."
Hirasatsu and Hiro were more surprised than him, "You don't know Zhou Yan?"
"Should I know him?"
Hirasatsu and Hiro felt incredible, because the people around him Almost all young people in Neon know Zhou Yan, but if you think about it, it's normal. No one can be famous enough for everyone to know him. Even the prime minister of Neon still has many people who don't know him.
"He is a very famous composer."
Then Hiramatsu Kazuhiro hummed a piece of "If Love Is Provident", "This song was written by him."
The boy raised his head Eyebrows, "Isn't this Kudo Shizuka's song? I've heard it."
Hiramatsu Kazuhiro smiled, "This is what Zhou Yan wrote."
Sure enough, even if this person doesn't know Zhou Yan , but I have also listened to the music written by Zhou Yan. After all, Zhou Yan’s music can be heard everywhere in the neon streets and alleys in the past two years.
After Shizuka Kudo sang "If Love Is Provident", the song became very popular on Neon.
"Oh, that's it." The boy showed a stunned expression, and then said in surprise, "You mean, Zhou Yan is a composer, not a professional writer?"
"Anyway, I used to I've only heard of his songs, and I've also seen his movies. Have you seen "The Sixth Sense"?"
"I've heard of it, but I've never watched it."
" Zhou Yan is the director of "The Sixth Sense""
The more the boy listened, the more confused he became, "You mean, Zhou Yan is a composer and director?"
"Yeah."
The boy exclaimed, "It's incredible, Zhou Yan is definitely a rare person in the world. He is a genius, and his novels are very literary and are definitely at the forefront."
Hirasatsu and Hiroshi's eyes lit up when they heard that the boys spoke so highly of Zhou Yan's novels, "What do you think, his novels. Very good?”
“The novels in this collection are all very good, and the style is very special. When I say that the style is special, it’s not just that their novels are different from other writers’ novels. Individual novels are also different from each other.”
"Actually, I know about Yu Hua. When a French friend of mine was chatting with me before, he mentioned this writer. He said that Yu Hua was his favorite Asian writer. He recommended that I read "To Live" by Yu Hua. It's just that besides the Chinese version, this novel only has a French version."
Pingsong and Guang asked in surprise, "Is Yu Hua so famous?"
"He should be a very top writer in China. Well, maybe, he’s similar to our neon Kenzaburo Oe?”
“Who is Kenzaburo Oe?”
“A very powerful writer who just won the Nobel Prize for Literature some time ago. ”
"So powerful? Yu Hua also won the Nobel Prize for Literature?"
"That's not true. I just said that his status in the Chinese literary world should be similar to that of Oe Kenzaburo in Neon."
In fact, this boy has some misunderstandings about Yu Hua's current status in the Chinese literary world. Although Yu Hua is not considered a junior in the Chinese literary world, he is definitely not ranked high.
Although Hiramatsu Kazuhiro didn't know much about the literary world, he felt very powerful when he heard the boy say this.
Before, he had only heard that Yu Hua and Shi Tiecheng were writers, but he didn't expect them to be so powerful. So, does that mean Zhou Yan's literary attainments are also very high? Not just for playing tickets?
Hiramatsu, Guang and the boy were silent for a while, and then suddenly spoke at the same time.
“Is he really good at composing music?”
“Can you tell me what’s so good about Zhou Yan’s novels?”
Both of them laughed at each other’s question. stand up.
Hiramatsu and Hiro patted their chests and said, "I can guarantee that you have heard many of his songs. Even if you haven't, as long as you listen to them, you will definitely fall in love with them." (End of Chapter)< br>
