Realizing that Guan Xiaoguan might be attracted to him, Xiang Nan immediately chose to avoid it, and then even reduced the number of visits to Jin Manying.
Even for the monthly audit, only Cai Xiaoli is sent there.
Cai Xiaoli graduated with a major in finance. Accounting is a piece of cake for her and she is fully qualified for the task.
…
Years ago, Yang Huajian went to the south again.
This time, he brought back three wagons worth of goods worth 1.5 million.
After peddling, he and Xiang Nan each earned 3.2 million yuan and became veritable millionaires.
However, millionaires at this stage have money, but they don’t have many places to spend it.
At this stage, private individuals are not allowed to buy cars. Real estate and real estate are not allowed to be traded, and there are restrictions even if they are used for business.
Therefore, what Xiang Nan can do is to visit cultural relics shops, visit Liulichang, visit the ghost market, and buy some antiques.
Fortunately, in the early 1980s, the value of antiques was not well known by people.
After all, at that time, people's food and clothing problems had not yet been completely solved, and they were not interested in looking at antiques. So it's just a niche hobby, so the price of antiques and antiques is not high.
For example, the official kilns of Kang, Yong and Qianlong only cost a few hundred yuan. As for private kilns, they are even cheaper. You can buy a pile for ten yuan. Therefore, due to his buying and selling, the collection of antiques is increasing.
For this reason, Xiang Nan even rented a warehouse to store his antiques.
…
The relationship between Chunming and Su Meng has also made some progress.
Chunming and Xiang Nan's cooperation in opening a restaurant was not hidden from everyone's eyes.
Su Meng saw that Chunming's restaurant was so popular and her career was very successful. Although the work of the archaeological team is hard, it can be considered a formal establishment.
After getting promoted in the future, joining the Cultural Relics Bureau or a museum would also be good options. Therefore, I no longer looked down on him as much as before, and my relationship with him gradually eased.
This made Chunming very happy, and he was even thinking about having a wedding in the next year.
However, as the saying goes, extreme happiness leads to sadness.
Chunming's distant cousin Meng Xiaoxing was angry because she was forced to get married at home, so she came to the city to work.
I heard that Chunming opened a restaurant, and I wanted to join as the proprietress.
"Brother Wu Zi, the hotel is yours, isn't it just like mine? I'll take care of it for you." She said unceremoniously.
"Go~" Chun understood her look, "I tell you, Jianjun and I opened the restaurant together. As agreed, no one's family is allowed to use it. If you want to find a job, I will help you find another way, but go Absolutely not in restaurants.”
"Why, just go." Meng Xiaoxing insisted.
Chunming didn't bother to talk to her, so he turned around and left.
The last time he asked Guan Xiaoguan to be the manager, Xiang Nan was a little unhappy. This time, if Meng Xiaoxing is pressed again, how can he open his mouth?
Meng Xiaoxing saw that he was ignoring people, so she stayed at his house. Anyway, his family is in charge of food and housing.
As a result, late at night, Su Meng came to see Chunming. Meng Xiaoxing opened the door and said, "Brother Chunming hasn't come back yet. I'm waiting for him to go to bed."
One sentence made Su Meng misunderstood, thinking that Chunming was trying to stand in two different situations, and refused to listen to Chunming no matter how he explained.
Even if Chunming finally became cruel and drove Meng Xiaoxing back to the countryside, Su Meng still felt that something was wrong between the two of them. Otherwise, why would Chunming feel guilty and drive Meng Xiaoxing back to the village?
Chunming was at a loss for words at this time.
Neither did he leave Meng Xiaoxing, nor did he rush away, leaving him speechless, so he broke up with Su Meng again.
After Xiang Nan found out, he didn't say anything else.
A woman like Su Meng who lacks the most basic trust in her lover and is like rain when she hears the wind, really cannot be messed with.
Once it gets stained, it will be scarred.
…
In 1983, one day, when Xiang Nan was giving a lecture to the students, two comrades from CCTV came.
"Professor Cheng, we know that you are very knowledgeable about ancient literature. We at CCTV are preparing to film "Dream of Red Mansions" and we hope you can give us some valuable advice." The two comrades said.
Xiang Nan is now a well-known and well-known writer.
In the second half of last year, he wrote three more films: "The Criminal of the Song Dynasty 2", "Farewell My Concubine", and "The Night Robbery of the Princess's Tomb", which further enhanced his fame and status in the literary world.
In addition, his previous works "Passengers in Handcuffs" and "Blue and Gold Safe" were also made into movies by Chang'an Film Studio and Zhujiang Film Studio, and achieved very good reputation and box office.
Therefore, now that CCTV is going to film "Dream of Red Mansions", the project is in preparation, and it needs screenwriters and consultants, so Xiang Nan naturally comes to mind.
Xiang Nan was also very interested when he heard it.
"A Dream of Red Mansions" is the first of the four great classics. It has been widely praised since its birth, and even gave birth to a discipline dedicated to studying it - Redology.
The 1987 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" is recognized as the most classic among many film and television adaptations. In particular, Lin Daiyu, played by Chen Kexu, is known as a classic character in film and television dramas.
It was a great honor to be able to participate in the TV series adaptation of this famous film, so Xiang Nan immediately agreed.
…
In May, the writing team of "A Dream of Red Mansions" was officially established.
Xiang Nan was also included in the screenwriting team because he had previously written dramas such as "The First Floor in the World", "Wotou Guild Hall", "There's a Blizzard Tonight", and "Raise the Red Lantern".
The screenwriters are all famous scholars of red science, such as Zhou Ling, Zhou Lei, Liu Genglu, etc. They are all considered authoritative figures in the field of red science research, and they are all much older than Xiang Nan.
But although Xiang Nan is young, his reputation far exceeds these people.
After all, he has written many works, such as "The Educated Youth Trilogy", "The Wrangler", "Wreaths under the Mountains", "The Gate of the Mansion", "Enter Guandong", etc., which are all works that have great influence. Before he was thirty, he had already won the Mao Dun Literary Award, the highest award in the mainland literary world.
Therefore, even though he was the youngest member of the screenwriting team, he became the main writer without hesitation.
As for the 1987 version of "A Dream of Red Mansions", Xiang Nan had watched it many times before and was very familiar with the plot, so he created it very quickly.
I joined the team in May and the script was completed by June. The speed was so fast that producer Wang Fulin was shocked.
After reading this script, red science experts felt that although there were some flaws, it was generally good. This is the first draft of the script.
After the first draft of the script is drawn up, the next step is to recruit actors and prepare for filming.
Because Xiang Nan is a screenwriter and has experience in directing drama clubs, he is also included as a casting director and is responsible for providing reference opinions.
"Dream of Red Mansions" is recognized as the first of the four great classics. Its adaptation and filming is an important political task. Therefore, young people from all over the world actively signed up.
Repertory troupes, drama troupes, and folk art troupes from all over the country also recommend the most capable artists. For a time, the film crew had to put all the letters of recommendation they received in sacks.
Xiang Nan and other casting directors were almost blinded by this choice.
