Xin Zhao spent an entire afternoon reading the three novels written by Zhang Qiurui.
After reading it, Xin Zhao's heart was filled with complicated emotions.
I was moved by the delicate brushstrokes and profound character portrayal, and was also distressed by the faint sadness and helplessness revealed in the story.
Each novel is like a carefully painted scroll, slowly unfolding before her eyes, leading her into one completely different world after another.
In "A Chinese Ghost Story", the love between a human and a ghost in the first half is not over yet they are separated by Yin and Yang. In the second half, the relationship is continued but there is no fate between them.
"The Legend of the New White Snake" made Xin Zhao feel deeply moved.
I will repay the life-saving grace of a thousand years ago after I have achieved success in my cultivation.
Xin Zhao was particularly moved by the courage of the White Snake, who, to save Xu Xian, risked flooding the Jinshan Temple. Such was the depth of her love and fearlessness, willing to endure eternal infamy and give it her all for the sake of her beloved.
Xu Xian's infatuation and persistence are equally moving. Even when White Snake was imprisoned under the tower, he remained loyal to her and went to pay homage to her year after year, his love for her never diminishing in the slightest.
The novel also explores human nature with profound depth. While monk Fahai's mission is to exorcise demons and uphold justice, his quest is also driven by a desire to avenge Bai Suzhen's theft of his elixir. This internal conflict between personal vengeance and demon-slaying is a source of inner conflict. Xiaoqing's loyalty and protectiveness towards her sister further demonstrate the deep bond between sisters, offering a glimpse into the warmth and strength of family affection.
"Farewell My Concubine" is set in the Republic of China, unfolding the love-hate entanglement of actors. It involves the background of regime change and the ill-fated country to interpret the emotional entanglement of obsession and betrayal of small people.
These three novels are all excellent works.
Xin Zhao made up his mind to publish all three novels and began to think about it in his mind.
........。
Zhang Qiurui was the first to receive the letter mailed to her by People's Literature.
First, I told her the good news that Yenching Film Academy agreed to allow her to enter the directing department of Yenching Film Academy without taking the entrance exam. The prerequisite was that her total score in next year's college entrance examination should not be lower than 300 points.
The second thing.
Her novel "Zhu Xian" opened up a new genre of novels. Several issues have been published, and the total number of words in the serialized series is nearly 500,000.
As the plot gradually gained momentum, readers' enthusiasm surged, and they wrote to People's Literature. Some not only discussed the plot, but also expressed their deep love and support. Many readers enthusiastically inquired about Xiaoxiang Qingkong's true identity, and urged People's Literature to publish the biweekly magazine again and update the novel "Zhu Xian".
In short, the novel "Zhu Xian" became popular.
After the novel "Zhu Xian" became popular, People's Literature naturally did not kill the goose that lays the golden eggs in order to extend the publication time of the novel, and published a series of 50,000 words every month without fail.
Not long after receiving the letter from People's Literature, Zhang Qiurui received a letter from Cheng Shufen in Hong Kong.
"The first Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards will be held next year. Time flies.
The 1980s and 1990s were the golden age of the development of Hong Kong's entertainment industry. Countless classic songs, movies and stars came into being in that brilliant era.
Both pop songs and movies are full of innovation and vitality.
The film industry also produces many excellent works, whether it is martial arts films, comedies or art films, they all make the audience fascinated.
"Being able to witness those classic scenes and characters that only exist on television in this life, and to personally experience the charm of this era, is undoubtedly an indescribable blessing." Zhang Qiurui muttered excitedly, his eyes flashing with excitement.
He took out a pen and paper and began to write a letter to Cheng Shufen, in which he specifically mentioned why Zhang Guorong's new album only sold 120,000 copies.
This is because Huaxing’s distribution channels and capabilities are not as strong as PolyGram’s, which is a fact that cannot be ignored.
It is recommended that Cheng Shufen sign Zhang Guorong with other agency contracts and sign her record with PolyGram or other record companies. With distribution channels, Zhang Guorong's next album will definitely sell more, much more than that released by Huaxing.
The reason why Zhang Qiurui did not mention this matter before was because people will not realize their limitations unless they fall. As the saying goes, good words cannot persuade a dead person, and honest words are unpleasant to the ears. It is better to let Cheng Shufen see the gap, so that she can realize Huaxing’s shortcomings and make better decisions.
After writing the letter to Cheng Shufen, Zhang Qiurui wrote another letter to Zhang Guorong.
The letter was nothing more than encouragement to Zhang Guorong and motivation.
As for the new song written for Zhang Guorong, Zhang Qiurui had already written it.
Ten poems.
"I Just Like You", "The Crime of Not Being Romantic", "The Earth", "The Scoundrel", "Who Understands the Heart of a Wanderer", "What Do I Want in Life", "Let Everything Go with the Wind", "When Love Is a Thing of the Past", "Midnight Song", "Unable to Say Goodbye".
These ten songs are all classics among classic Cantonese songs, and each one of them can be selected for the Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards.
"I Just Like You" with its gentle melody and affectionate lyrics makes people indulge in the pure and slightly sad love.
"The Crime of Unromanticism" expresses those seemingly unromantic but actually affectionate actions in love in an ironic way, which is thought-provoking.
"The Good Earth" depicts people's deep affection for their homeland and their infinite longing for the future from a grand perspective.
"The Scoundrel" uses a self-deprecating way to show the protagonist's helplessness and persistence in love, which is very moving.
"Who Understands the Wanderer's Heart," with its unique melody and profound lyrics, reveals the wanderer's deep loneliness and desire to be understood, while "What Do I Want in Life" expresses an indifferent and detached attitude towards life with an open-minded attitude, which is thought-provoking.
"Let Everything Go with the Wind" encourages people to let go of the burdens of the past and bravely embrace the future with its light rhythm and positive lyrics.
"When Love Is Gone" recalls the good old days in a nostalgic way, which makes people feel deeply moved.
These ten songs were all the rage when they were released. Now that they are put together in one album, Zhang Qiurui doesn't know what chemical reaction will occur.
As for Cheng Shufen, she is also a strong and decisive woman.
After receiving Zhang Qiurui's reply and reading the letter and analysis written by Zhang Qiurui, Cheng Shufen sat in the office thinking for half a day, and finally made up her mind to sign Zhang Guorong's record contract with PolyGram.
And Huaxing only needs to hold on to Zhang Guorong's other agency contracts.
PolyGram picked up a popular singer for free, and also a singer who was associated with Stars and Oceans, so they were naturally overjoyed and promised to vigorously promote Zhang Guorong's new album in the future.
Finally, there was a lot of wrangling over Zhang Guorong's treatment at PolyGram.
It took three hours of haggling before all the details were finalized to the satisfaction of both parties.
