Chapter 435(2/2)

That's it?

Wang Shuo said unhappily: "Can you be more perfunctory?"

"I fully believe in your abilities!"

Lin Weimin threw the script back to Wang Shuo, "You can just discuss this script with Dudu and Haiyan. There is no need to show it to me!"

Wang Shuo muttered: "You're a black-hearted person who only wears his name but doesn't do any work!"

"By the way, how's your novel going?" Seeing this kid jumping like this, Lin Weimin decided to put some pressure on him.

When Wang Shuo heard this, his momentum immediately weakened, "I haven't found any space yet!"

"Hurry up! Don't hold on to a novel for half a year, you are relying on this to make a living!"

Wang Shuo was upset by his urging and said perfunctorily: "I know, I know!"

If I had known earlier I wouldn’t have come!

Wang Shuo found an excuse and ran away, and Lin Weimin didn't let him stay.

In the afternoon, another guest came to the editorial office.

It was Zhong Lin, the editor of "Script". Previously, "Script" wanted to publish the scripts of "Untouchable" and "Farewell My Concubine", so it came to Lin Weimin specifically.

The two scripts were published on "Script", allowing Lin Weimin to receive several hundred yuan in royalties, which was better than nothing.

Today Zhong Lin came to the editorial office to find Lin Weimin, not on behalf of the "Script" editorial office, but on behalf of the Dramatists Association. He is now the Secretary-General of the Dramatists Association.

Zhong Lin explained the purpose of his visit. He was here to formally invite Lin Weimin to join the Dramatists Association.

In the past few years, Lin Weimin's works have been performed in the People's Art Theater one after another. However, because his teacher, Mr. Wan, is the chairman of the Dramatists Association, in order to avoid risks, Lin Weimin has not joined the association, and he has not even participated in the annual awards selection.

The reason why Zhong Lin invited Lin Weimin this time was related to "Red Sorghum".

Zhang Yimou, who returned with great honors, praised Lin Weimin at the press conference. He also flattered Lin Weimin constantly during the interview. Especially in the exclusive interview with Li Xiangyang, a reporter from the "Yanjing Youth Daily", the two sang and praised Lin Weimin.

I have won all the awards in the past two years.

Countless readers also learned after reading this report that Lin Weimin had won two awards in China in the past two years.

Li Xiangyang also included private goods, and in his report, he specifically educated readers on the value of the Cannes Film Festival and the Tony Awards.

One is one of the three major international film festivals in Europe, which is as famous as the Berlin Film Festival. The film "Lover" written by Lin Weimin won the Best Screenplay Award there.

One is the highest award for American dramas and musicals. The drama "The Intouchables" written by Lin Weimin won the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor awards there.

Because of Li Xiangyang's popular science, readers immediately understood the value of these two awards.

Lin Weimin is a screenwriter and won the Best Screenplay Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Isn't that equivalent to Zhang Yimou winning the Golden Bear?

The Tony Award seems to have little to do with Lin Weimin, but he also wrote the script after all. Without a good script written by someone else, it will be useless no matter how good your actor is!

Besides, this is the highest drama award in the United States!

These days, no matter what the word "American" is on anything, it will be looked down upon.

Riding on the popularity of "Red Sorghum", countless Chinese people know about the Cannes Film Festival and the Tony Awards, as well as the honors Lin Weimin has achieved overseas.

Teacher Lin, who has always been low-key, can no longer hide it now.

In line with Zhang Yimou's rainbow farts on various occasions, apart from the director Zhang Yimou, the person who gained the most fame for "Red Sorghum" turned out to be Lin Weimin, not even comparable to the heroine Gong Li and the hero Han Zhuangzhuang.

It is precisely because of the Cannes Film Festival and the Tony Awards that the Dramatists Guild has been on pins and needles recently.

In the past few years, because Mr. Wan avoided suspicion, Lin Weimin's works did not even participate in the awards for several consecutive years.

Now that news has spread that Lin Weimin has won awards abroad for his drama creations, the association is feeling even more pressure.

Lin Weimin's works have received awards abroad, but why are they not even nominated in China?

No one needed to ask, the Dramatists Guild itself felt guilty, so it quickly dispatched Zhong Lin.

Join the Dramatists Guild first, then give awards.

This is what Lin Weimin understood from Zhong Lin's words.

Zhong Lin also emphasized: "We have already said hello to Mr. Wan, and the old man has no objection."

In the past, the main reason why Mr. Wan avoided suspicion was to protect Lin Weimin. With the title of "Wan Jiabao's disciple", no matter how strong he was, he would always be criticized.

Now that the news has spread that Lin Weimin won an award abroad, the Dramatists Association is unwilling to give him the award. Who dares to question the credibility of this award anymore?

Mr. Wan was naturally reluctant to agree.

Since there is no problem with the teacher, Lin Weimin is naturally willing to give the Dramatists Association this face. After all, Mr. Wan is still famous in the Dramatists Association!

"Let's agree first, don't come to me for activities or anything like that!" Lin Weimin said to Zhong Lin.

"Oh, my Teacher Lin! As long as you can join the association, you don't have to worry about the rest. Our association will take care of everything for you!"

Zhong Lin looked pleading.
