Xiang Nan's words were filled with abundance.
What is meant by "reforming for good" and what is meant by "life is really difficult", these are what he said.
If he says he hasn’t changed, he hasn’t changed. If he says life can still be lived, that means he can still live it.
An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua couldn't tell. Seeing that Xiang Nan was still willing to take care of An Yongshou and An Yongkang, they stopped making trouble with him.
However, after they returned, An Yongshou and An Yongkang found that they still could not enter Xiang Nan's house, the Liren Clothing Factory, and they still could not pay for their meals in the county.
So they had no choice but to ask An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua to help them come forward.
An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua didn't want to bother anymore.
First, Yongfu, Yongshou, and Yongkang were all married and separated. As old people, it is not good for them to interfere in the affairs between brothers. If they interfere too much, they will be blamed;
Secondly, Xiang Nan has actually done a good job in these years, and he has been devoted to their brothers. They also saw the degradation of Yongshou and Yongkang over the years.
If you don't know how to live a good life, you will know that your ideas take advantage of your elder brother. This approach actually doesn’t work. Brothers also have to settle accounts openly. In recent years, Yongshou and Yongkang have both had accounts of more than 20,000 yuan in the county, so how can they have the nerve to open their mouths.
Thirdly, they will still look after Xiang Nan after they retire. It is basically impossible to count on Yongshou and Yongkang. But if Xiang Nan is offended, who will take care of them in their old age? !
Xiang Nan doesn't want to see them now. They are going to help Yongshou and Yongkang to cause trouble again. When the time comes, if Xiang Nan really disowns them, they will be doomed.
Therefore, An Guomin and Niu Xiuhua did not move. Instead, they gave Yongshou and Yongkang a lesson and told them to work hard and live a down-to-earth life when they returned to the city.
Xiang Nan wasn't sure whether Yongshou and Yongkang listened. Anyway, as long as they didn't bother him, his ears would be clear.
…
In November, winter enters.
Jintan Village has entered the slack season. On the contrary, Liren Garment Factory is in full swing.
A new round of recruitment began. This time, the number of workers was as high as 300, so people from all over the country and even the county came to sign up.
After all, these days, state-owned factories are running into operating difficulties, and people in the county are also having a hard time.
In the winter, after Xiang Nan finished working in the orchard, he also began to write the second volume of "So Many Beauties" at home.
The second volume of "So Many Beauties in the Country" tells the life of the villagers in Luanshigou after entering the Republic of China.
Social unrest, warlords fighting, bandits running rampant, old traditions and new concepts also collided in this small mountain village, sparking countless sparks...
And just when he was immersed in creation, "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" produced by the Yanjing Television Art Center was officially launched and immediately attracted a ratings boom.
On the one hand, the story is indeed a good story, telling the story of how a woman walks out of the mountains and into the city. It contains both hard work and the love between children. The story is ups and downs and the feelings are sincere, so it is naturally popular.
On the one hand, it is also due to the lack of production of TV dramas in the Mainland at that time, so that any good TV series is popular. Nowadays, these kind of rural-themed dramas about suffering do not have that many audiences.
The popularity of "The Woman Who Crossed the River of Men" not only made several of the leading actors famous, but also made Xiang Nan's popularity rise sharply, making her a well-known person in the literary world.
His original book of the same name, "The Woman Crossing the River of Men", also experienced a sales boom two years after its publication. The People's Literature and Art Publishing House reprinted 800,000 copies to meet the needs of readers. This also brought Xiang Nan more than 100,000 yuan in royalties.
What makes him even more happy is that film and television workers from all over the world, after seeing that "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" was so popular, couldn't help but pay attention to the work of Xiang Nan, a rising writer.
They then looked through Xiang Nan's works and found that his works were very good in storytelling and artistry, and were very suitable for adaptation into film and television dramas.
Therefore, one after another, film studios and TV stations approached Xiang Nan with the hope of adapting his literary works.
Works such as "Helan Snow", "Wuthering Mountains", "On the Field of Hope", "Blood in the Ancient Temple", "Wolfbane Flower", etc. are all very popular.
Xiang Nan doesn't play reserved, he basically gives it to anyone who wants it.
Now was a great opportunity for him to increase his popularity, and he didn't want to miss it.
The 1990s was the golden period for writers to become famous through movies and TV dramas. Capital has not yet poured into the entertainment industry, and TV dramas still focus on storytelling and artistry, so good works by good writers are the most popular.
For example, Wang Xie, Hai Yi, Qiong Yao, Jin Yong, Liang Zuo, and Gao Mantang all became famous because they could produce good works and scripts.
But in a few years, we will wait for capital to enter the entertainment industry. At that time, TV dramas will only focus on whether actors are popular or not. Whatever story or artistry is left aside.
Even Jin Yong dramas, Hai Yi dramas, and Qiong Yao dramas will still not work without popular stars, and no one will watch them.
So he didn't want to miss this opportunity.
And because of the popularity of "The Woman Who Crossed the River of Men", his film and television adaptation rights fees are also rising.
Previously, "The Woman Who Crossed the River of Men" only sold 10,000 copies. Now they all start at 50,000, then 100,000 or 150,000.
Although it is not as high as later generations, where big film and television IPs can easily cost millions, at the time, it was considered a very good price.
…
The popularity of "The Woman Crossing the River of Men" also made people across the country know about Xihaigu for the first time.
Xihai Guqiong is the best in the world!
Many people living in coastal areas and big cities know for the first time that there are such poor places in the world.
There was no land to farm, no water to drink, and the brothers could sell their daughters for a donkey just to wear a pair of trousers... They were so poor that it was beyond their imagination.
For a time, public opinion focused on this poor place and whether the people there really lived such a life, whether they were really so poor and backward...
Groups of reporters went to visit and report, and the news sent back shocked the people.
It turns out that there are indeed such poor places in China.
So poor that three meals a day are potatoes, so poor that you have to walk seven miles to drink water, so poor that you will marry for a cellar of water and a donkey, so poor that there is no glass in the classroom and plastic sheets are used to seal the windows, so poor that the students have no chalk , squatting on the ground and writing with branches...
Such photos were published in newspapers, such scenes appeared on TV, and the whole country was in an uproar.
Xi Haigu suddenly became famous and brought countless tears to readers.
People from all over the country donated money and materials in droves to support this poor place.
People from the local area, the city, and the province were called to talk and asked them to take measures to improve people's lives.
It is said that a well will not produce oil without pressure, and a person will be light and airy without pressure.
Under the pressure and support of superiors, people's motivation is stimulated.
The construction of Yuquanying Highway and Yuquanying Water Pumping Station has been officially put on the agenda.
At the same time, the Diaozhuang immigration plan is also accelerating.
