"It was Jimmy who brought up the matter of finding other newspapers to publicize?"
After Yang Xiao learned that "One Day" was going to be made into a movie, she was in a very good mood, but she still tried to stay calm and asked Tan Kai.
Tan Kai nodded, "Jimmy is quite enthusiastic."
"Enthusiasm?" Yang Xiao chuckled, "Don't think too highly of Americans. He called us specifically just to ask us to help promote "One Day"."
"Then he is doing this for Yu Dong?" Tan Kai asked.
Yang Xiao shook his head: "It's really hard to say. I don't know whether Yu Dong's cooperation with him has gone so far. But these things are not important. Although he wants to use us, this matter is very important to us."
It is very beneficial, even if he doesn’t mention it, I will do it.”
"Okay, I'll ask some acquaintances to help me and ask them to write a news article." Tan Kai said.
"Okay, you can contact me now, but let them send it after the Chinese New Year. Make an appointment with them and everyone will send it at a similar time. In addition, since it is for publicity, use snacks. Lao Tan, you can contact this person again.
A foreign friend, ask him to give you more information about the producer. In this way, we can also have a target. It is best to ask how much the film and television adaptation rights were sold for. If the price is not bad, it can also be used as a
Publicity point." Yang Xiao quickly explained a few words to Tan Kai and explained all the points that should be paid attention to in the whole matter.
Yang Xiao hopes that the film and television adaptation rights of "One Day" can be sold for a considerable price. Such publicity will inevitably attract a wave of authors to devote themselves to writing science fiction novels.
Although she knows that the film and television adaptation rights of "One Day" are sold this time due to luck, she will never say this to the outside world. She will only tell people that writing science fiction novels can make a lot of money, and that there is hope that the work will be filmed by a foreign director.
into a movie.
…
Yu Dong knew nothing about what was going on in Rongcheng. He was celebrating the New Year at home with his parents these days.
This year's Chinese New Year is more lively than in previous years. Although most workers from surrounding factories have returned to their hometowns, some people did not go home and chose to stay in the factories.
There are also more people in the town.
In the past, Jiwang Town was very deserted and people didn't know where to buy vegetables. In recent years, a group of outsiders have gathered and formed a vegetable market on the edge of the town.
I heard that the town is planning to make some plans in the past two years to build a piece of land in the town to set up vegetable stalls for those migrant workers.
People who came to work saw hope, and some simply settled here instead of going home.
At this time, the local New Year flavor in Shanghai is stronger than later, but it cannot be compared with other places. The local food during the Chinese New Year is not much better than usual. On the contrary, watching these people from other places having a more lively life,
I felt a little envious.
However, it is difficult to reveal the envy of locals in Shanghai, and even if it is revealed, it will turn into a condescending look down on oneself.
It would be okay if it was a relatively developed place, but it is a relatively underdeveloped place like Yudong, where the locals maintain a sense of superiority to outsiders.
In the past, they felt that they were poor compared with others, but now they find that there are even poorer people, and their mentality suddenly changes.
Yu Dong's family doesn't have many relatives, so his parents go there, while he stays at home, usually writing and reading.
Aunt He, the "matchmaker" in the middle, came twice and wanted to introduce Yu Dong to his girlfriend.
For the first time, Yu Dong directly told her that he had a girlfriend, without bothering her to introduce him, so he dismissed her.
But the second time she came again, she kept instilling in Yu Dong the idea that foreign girls were not good and that it was better to marry a local girl.
Later, Yu Dong couldn't bear it anymore, so he simply locked the door when he was at home, so that she couldn't even get in.
Until the eighth day of the lunar month, Yu Dong left Shanghai and went to Jinling.
Because the school has not started yet, when Yu Dong arrived, the entrance was relatively deserted.
The doorman, Uncle Zhou, wrapped himself in a military green coat, curled up and looked outside in a daze. When he saw Yu Dong, he opened the communication room window with a smile, "Teacher Yu, you came so early this year."
When Yu Dong saw Uncle Zhou, he smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Uncle Zhou."
"Let's have fun together, have fun together, how about the Chinese New Year?"
"It's okay." Yu Dong took out another paper bag from the bag and handed it to Uncle Zhou, "A little snack, uncle, you can talk to me as usual."
"Hey." Uncle Zhou took the paper bag and said in surprise, "You brought me something, but I don't have a red envelope to give you."
"Hey, if you're so kind, I'll give you something to give you a red envelope. Just some spiced beans to eat as a snack, or as a side dish when drinking."
After saying that, Yu Dong was about to leave, but was stopped by Uncle Zhou, "Don't leave in a hurry."
Uncle Zhou turned around and looked for it in the cabinet at the back. He smiled and handed two letters out: "Although I don't have a red envelope for you, I'm afraid you'll be happy to give it to you."
Yu Dong saw his own letter and took it with a smile. The two letters were sent from Rongcheng and Jiangcheng respectively.
"Thank you, sir."
"By the way, one more thing. The young man who came to see you before came here yesterday and this morning. When he saw that you were not there, he went back." Uncle Zhou said again.
Yu Dong nodded, "Okay, I understand."
The young man Uncle Zhou was talking about must be Ruan Xiaohu. Only then did Yu Dong remember that he left in a hurry years ago and didn't bother to tell Ruan Xiaohu when he would come back.
Ruan Xiaohu's family is from Huizhou Prefecture, not far from Jinling, but I don't know if this kid went home during the Chinese New Year.
When the two of them were chatting together, Ruan Xiaohu rarely talked about his family's affairs. It could be seen that he was reluctant to mention his own family's affairs.
After returning to the dormitory, Yu Dong opened the two letters.
The letter from Rongcheng was sent by Tan Kai. In the letter, Tan Kai told Yu Dong that Jimmy had told them that "One Day" would be made into a movie, and that they would help promote it in China in a while.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At the same time, Tan Kai also attached some questions to the letter. These questions are all used by Yu Dong in the "Science Fiction World" interview column.
Yu Dong only needs to write down the answers according to the questions and then send them back. If there are questions that he does not want to answer, he can leave them blank, or if there are other questions that he wants to write but has not been asked, he can also write additional ones.
After reading the letter, Yu Dong was a little confused. He didn't know why Jimmy James was so active and even took the initiative to notify the magazine.
Yu Dong was also thinking about asking Jimmy James for information about when the plans for the "One Day" movie would be announced in the near future, so that he could reveal it to Tan Kai and the others.
Well now, Jimmy James has taken care of this matter, which saves Yu Dong from having to worry about it.
It's just that Yu Dong knows that Jimmy talks about feelings, but thinks about money. He is a typical person who can't afford early benefits. There must be a reason why he can take the initiative to tell Tan Kai and the others this matter.
of.
After reading Tan Kai's letter, Yu Dong did not rush to reply and opened another letter from Jiangcheng.
The veteran's letter started as usual, just talking about ordinary things, but at the end he suddenly wrote: I discovered an interesting thing when I was reading the last issue of "Zhongshan" recently.
Yu Dong felt something in his heart when he saw "Zhongshan". Looking at the following content, sure enough, the veteran discovered the article "Mending the Sky" he wrote.
Because Yu Dong had previously told the veteran that he had published a novel in "Science Fiction World", the veteran knew Yu Dong's name.
Now that I see that the author of "Mending the Sky" is named Yu Dong, I have some associations.
He had already determined between the lines that Yu Dong, the author of "Mending the Sky", and his pen pal Yu Dong were the same person, but at the end of the letter he couldn't help but ask: Is it really you?
