"Editor-in-Chief!"

"Editor-in-Chief!"

He Chengwei trotted over, holding the manuscript as if it were a treasure, and said, "You must take a look at this!"

"What content excited you so much?"

"Look first, look first!"

The editor-in-chief was confused and had to take it, while He Chengwei stood aside and waited.

After a long while, the editor raised his buried head, like a hyena in heat, and asked urgently: "What's behind? Is there anything else behind?"

"No more, that's all!"

"Oh, this author is so annoying. He needs to tell the complete story!"

The editor-in-chief was also very angry. After a while, he calmed down and became extremely excited. He said: "We always complain that there are no good stories. Look, isn't this coming? So be patient. The masters are among the people!"

"I don't agree. The masters have all gone to "Sprouting" and "Harvest". Who will come to our "Story Meeting"? Maybe he copied it somewhere?"

"Don't belittle yourself, our popular literature is what the public likes to see. I dare to bet you that this man must be a master. Just by looking at him off the cliff, he is a good storyteller!"

"Then do you think this still needs to be modified?" He Chengwei asked.

"If there are any differences, we can help smooth them out. The main story does not need to be changed at all."

The editor pondered for a while and said: "Publish it in its entirety, don't separate it, otherwise the appeal will be weak. Readers must be feeling the same way when we see it. We fell off a cliff and disappeared all of a sudden, haha..."

He seemed to have imagined that scene, suddenly laughed, and asked: "Did the author say anything about the follow-up?"

"He said he still has the second half and is currently writing it."

"That's good, that's good! Reduce the number of pages of those novels and leave them all to "Kapok Kasaya", and put the table of contents first. It should be clear and eye-catching!"

Each issue of "Story Club" has 90-100 pages. It is a 32-page booklet. If one page is full of text without illustrations, it will be about 800 words. "Kapok Kasaya" has 20,000 words, which is more than 20 pages, which is not very long.

There is a shortage of content these days, so in order to make up for the number of pages, a story can be given more than 30 pages.

"Where is the author from?"

"He is in Lushan. He said he would return to the capital before winter. If I send him a letter, I have to calculate the time."

"Lushan? Back to the capital?"

The editor scratched his head and said: "It seems that the identity is not simple. What is your pen name?"

"Well……"

He Chengwei went back to the table and took a piece of paper, then came over and said: "Midnight massacre, Xiaoqiang, I want to do something big. The Northeastern hotpot pork is the most delicious, jade noodles Xiao Mengchang, it rains in time in the capital, and it will turn white when you sleep..."

"If we both agree, let's call it Archie!"

"..."

The editor-in-chief was stunned, then burst into laughter, and other editors also laughed.

"What a funny guy, Archie? Okay, okay, you can write to him right away and tell him about our respect and friendship."

"OK!"

He Chengwei returned to his seat, but before he could start writing, he heard the editor-in-chief say again: "Xiao He, please go there yourself and meet this wonderful man."

"Okay, I'll leave tomorrow!"

He Chengwei was secretly happy, it was just what he wanted.

"What's the standard for the royalties?"

"You can buy a horse bone with a thousand pieces of gold. Go and find out. If it's really good, it doesn't matter if it's worth seven yuan for a thousand words!"

"Kapok Kasaya" is a martial arts film from the mid-1980s, directed and written by Xu Xiaoming.

He now works at Hong Kong's Li TV Station, later known as ATV.

In 1981, he filmed a TV series "Huo Yuanjia", starring Huang Yuanshen, Michelle Michelle, Liang Xiaolong, Wei Qiuhua, etc., which became popular in Hong Kong. It was also the first Hong Kong drama introduced from the mainland, and it was also popular all over the country.

Theme song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down", "The Great Wall will never fall down, the Yellow River is surging for thousands of miles, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful and colorful. Ask me how our country is like a disease..."

It is the Cantonese song enlightenment for many people.

Subsequently, Xu Xiaoming filmed "Chen Zhen" and "Huo Dongge", which were also very popular and made Liang Xiaolong, a martial arts star, famous.

Later, he went north and co-produced the film "Kapok Kasaya" with the mainland. Yu Rongguang played the villain Qi Tianyuan in it and became an instant hit.

Xu Xiaoming is an all-rounder, director, screenwriter, actor, singer, and martial arts instructor. Li Saifeng is his apprentice. It stands to reason that when he was very popular in the 1980s, he suddenly disappeared.

Most of the information said that he moved behind the scenes, but did not say why he moved behind the scenes.

At that time, the Taiwanese market was the father of Hong Kong's entertainment industry, and 99% of artists depended on Taiwan's attitude. Taiwan prohibited Hong Kong stars from cooperating with leftists, let alone going north to the mainland to film. It was simply "heinous"!

For example, Liang Xiaolong, after "Chen Zhen" became a hit, he returned to the mainland. Taiwan ordered Liang Xiaolong to write a letter of repentance, but he refused: "I'm not wrong, I just went back home."

Then he was banned. If it weren't for Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu", Bruce Leung would have been lost to everyone.

The same goes for Xu Xiaoming. After he made "Kapok Kasaya", he was immediately labeled as a "gangster filmmaker" by Taiwan and banned. However, "Kapok Kasaya" later won the Outstanding Film Award from the Ministry of Culture, and Taiwan changed its strategy.

Because Taiwan also needs a united front!

Just imagine, if filmmakers who are officially recognized by the mainland return to our embrace, it will be so embarrassing!

So Taiwan said: As long as you write a letter of repentance, stop going to the mainland to film, talk about how dire straits the mainland is, and have your heart set on the party-state, we will forget about it.

Xu Xiaoming: I won’t write it!

He could only turn behind the scenes.

Even many years later, when the gang in Hong Kong were happy to insult China, Xu Xiaoming stood up and spoke out for the country.

Don't think that in this era, the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles are just entertainment. They are always deeply wrapped up in politics, but no one talks about these things - let's not mention this for now.

In short, Chen Qi has his own plan. He made "Kapok Kasaya" and will definitely make a movie in the future. He still wants to find Xu Xiaoming and bring him over... He doesn't protect himself, which is unreasonable.

He made some changes to "Kapok Kasaya". The male protagonist was originally a monk, and the female protagonist has always liked him. However, the male protagonist wears a shabby hat and grows his hair, so he does not say that he is a monk. The logic is very far-fetched and the resemblance is very strong.

Scumbag.

Chen Qi didn't like it, so he changed him to a lay disciple, and they were in love with each other. In this way, when he decided to officially become a monk later, the feeling of creating creatures and tricking people would be stronger.

It is more than 600 kilometers from Shanghai to Lushan.

He Chengwei walked leisurely and arrived in two days.

He came to Guling and found the hotel according to its address. He felt a little strange at first glance, so he went in and asked: "Hello, comrade, I am the editor of "Story Club". Some of you have contributed articles here. I'm here to visit."

"Submission? Are you mistaken? We are hosting the crew." A waiter said.

"Crew? Making a movie?"

"yes!"

He Chengwei was also confused and said: "The address is correct. His pen name is Archi. Do you know him?"

"Archie...oh!"

The waiter clapped his hands and said happily: "Are you talking about Xiao Chen? His name is Chen Qi, and he is a screenwriter."

"screenwriter……"

A dignified screenwriter contributes to "Story Club"??

He Chengwei didn't wait for a response. The waiter said enthusiastically: "He went out with the group today. Just wait here and he will be back in the afternoon... Let me tell you, Xiao Chen is a good person. He can tell stories.
