Chapter 1083 Visiting Master Huang

Chapter 1083 Visiting Master Huang

The staff still couldn't remember who the young man with the mustache in front of him was, but since he had such a connection, he was happy to inform Lu Yixuan: "Sir, please come with me! Our curator Huang is just now If you have a little free time, if you are lucky, if you usually find it, you may not be able to meet our curator Huang himself."

Lu Yixuan thanked with a smile, followed the other party to an office door, the staff knocked on the door three times and heard the response from inside, then opened the door: "Curator, this gentleman is visiting you! "

Master Huang beckoned: "Please come in and talk!"

The staff made an inviting gesture, and waited for Lu Yixuan to enter the door before closing the door softly behind him.

The staff left, and Lu Yixuan quickly looked around Master Huang's office. To be honest, he was a little surprised by the impressive furnishings. The walls were covered with calligraphy and paintings, and there was a huge bookcase next to the desk. Collection of works.

A huge piece of rice paper was arranged on Master Huang's desk at this moment, and the faint fragrance of ink was wafting in the air. Then he took a look at the messy Langhao brushes on the desk...

It seems that Master Huang has just made a calligraphy and painting with brushstrokes.

When Lu Yixuan entered the door, Master Huang just put down a thin brush in his hand on the pen stand, and his eyes happened to put away the calligraphy and paintings on the table, and turned to him.

Lu Yixuan hurriedly introduced himself: "Hello Director Huang, please forgive me for visiting without an appointment..."

Master Huang waved his hands casually and said, "Are you the business manager of the Cultural Publishing Company?"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Lu Yixuan was a little annoyed that he didn't prepare a business card, but he immediately thought of the first issue of "Xingyue Magazine" that he brought in his bag, so he planned to get a sample of it.

Never thinking about it, Master Huang waved his hand again, and then nodded at the desk with his chin: "My humble author, since I am a friend in the cultural circle, you may wish to give me a hand and comment on my new work. In the eyes of professionals from the Culture Publishing Company, how much is my new work worth?"

Lu Yixuan raised his eyebrows secretly, Master Huang, are you so impolite?

Let's review your new work?It is also necessary to use the professional eyes of the cultural publishing industry to estimate how much it is worth?

To be honest, Master Huang's request surprised Lu Yixuan quite a bit, and he was a bit confused as to what Master Huang meant. Was he really asking for comments, or was he turning a corner, and wanted to let himself, the business manager of a cultural publishing company who came to ask for it, See if you can buy his masterpiece for a price?

But the thought was fleeting in my mind.

Whether calligraphy and painting are good or bad, Lu Yixuan really doesn't know the taste, he can't tell what is good or bad.

At this time, the fashion pretended to have seen the calligraphy and painting on the desk that had not yet dried out. Except for the feeling of Lao Huang's strong and powerful characters, the landscape painting on it really didn't show any profound artistic conception.

Calligraphy and painting can't be seen to be good or bad, but Master Huang himself, even though he has never met, has the memory impression of his previous life after all.

In the previous life, Master Huang, no one talked about how elegant and profound his calligraphy and paintings could be. Even after Master Huang died young, no one in the outside world hyped the value of his calligraphy and paintings.

Throughout his life, the only achievements that people will never forget are the dozens of brilliant books he left behind.

So judging from this overall perspective, there are already very clear results.

After all, I am a stranger who hastily approached me. To say that Master Huang is taking the opportunity to pass on small words to his friend in the cultural publishing industry, and cleverly raise the price to sell calligraphy and paintings, it is naturally a bit reckless.

And what's more, the current Master Huang, even himself, doesn't know what kind of great achievements he will have in the future, so naturally there is no such thing as treating himself as a social celebrity at all.

Talking about social status, if he took off the mustache on his lips and declared himself the boss of Huanyu Films Lu Da, it would make sense that the other party would be more excited...

It can be seen from this that Master Huang is really treating him as a spectator they met by chance, and they are indeed seriously asking for comments.

Thinking through the key point in a blink of an eye, Lu Yixuan knew that he still saw his idol, and he was a little eager for success, so he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing secretly.

Master Huang caught a glimpse of Lu Yixuan shaking his head, and he himself shook his head with a dry smile: "I'm joking, I haven't asked Mr. what to call it. What kind of publication did you mention just now? What kind of publication is it?"

While talking, he has already started to remove the calligraphy and paintings on the table.

It seems that Master Huang actually knows the level of his calligraphy and painting works. Seeing Lu Yixuan shaking his head secretly, he thought that Lu Yixuan didn't pay attention, and consciously changed the topic quickly.

Lu Yixuan is also not good at commenting on Master Huang's calligraphy and painting skills.

After all, he really doesn't understand this field. If it's good or bad, it can only make people feel bored. Seeing that Master Huang has quickly removed the calligraphy and paintings on the table and cleared the table, he He also took out the overseas edition of the first issue of "Star Monthly" from his bag, and put it on Master Huang's desk: ""Star Monthly" mainly focuses on collections of short and novelettes. The current first issue has selected twelve stories. Curator Huang He is a celebrity in the Xiangjiang cultural circle, so it is very presumptuous to come here..."

Before Lu Yixuan finished speaking, Master Huang had already picked up "Star Monthly" and began to read it.

The layout of "Star Monthly" is the size of 4-format paper, and the style follows the general style of general magazines. The design takes a well-regulated and conservative approach, focusing on content construction.

In order to open up the market, the inaugural issue of "Star Monthly" now has three works that the company can sell most, such as "Red Sorghum Family" by the great writer Mo, "The Stubborn Master of the Capital" by the big old king, and "One Acre" The master's "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" is all included.

Of course, limited to the page capacity of "Star Monthly", these three works only excerpted [-] to [-] words from the beginning.

The remaining pages are the other nine high-quality manuscripts selected for the essay contest.

"Stories written by mainland writers?" Master Huang casually flipped through a few pages, noticed the difference in the text, and looked up at Lu Yixuan in surprise.

"Yes, yes, "Star Monthly" is a pure literature publication founded under the leadership of the cultural department of Nanzhen Special Zone. The first issue of the inaugural issue is the best manuscripts selected by Nanzhen City's essay competition in the past six months. We plan to Established "Star Monthly" as a pure novel story publication covering the entire Chinese cultural circle, the main content is pure novel story reading, one issue per month..."

"What is the feedback from mainland publications in the Xiangjiang market?

Your "Star Monthly" is very courageous. The publishing market in Hong Kong is very competitive now. I am afraid that the stories written by mainland writers and friends will hardly meet the tastes of Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas markets. "

Master Huang was right in his words, expressing the biggest embarrassment after "Star Monthly" was launched.

Chapter 1084 The Enthusiastic Master Huang

Chapter 1084 The Enthusiastic Master Huang

Master Huang didn't know that he just flipped through the story just now, anyway, he glanced at it briefly, and after seeing that it was indeed a novel from a mainland writer, he seemed to be no longer so interested.

This reaction made Lu Yixuan lose his confidence. If he can't attract Master Huang's interest, then there is nothing to talk about long-term collaborations.

Lu Yixuan was a little impatient, but before he could say anything, Master Huang had already grabbed the phone on his desk and dialed a series of numbers. After a while, the phone was connected, and he said into the microphone: "This week's study session is scheduled for When?"

book club?

These three words made Lu Yixuan's eyes brighten.

Soon after Master Huang finished the call, when he put the phone back, he smiled and said to Lu Yixuan, "I haven't asked you, what's your name?"

"My surname is Lu, Lu Yixuan, and I come from a small mountain village in the northwest of the mainland." Lu Yixuan said truthfully.

"Mr. Lu, you are very lucky today. The Art Museum has a book club this afternoon. Since you want to promote periodicals, are you interested in participating in the book club and finding more like-minded people at the venue?" Master Huang laughed. .

What book club to attend... Lu Yixuan really doesn't have much interest.

After all, his ambition is not to promote "Star Monthly", but he is here for Master Huang!

Besides, if a future guru-level literary giant like Master Huang has such a differentiated attitude towards mainland periodicals, those who participate in the book club will probably not be much better off.

Due to the differences in the system and national conditions in the mainland, and the turmoil in that special decade, the outside world, including Hong Kong and other places, especially in overseas Chinese circles, has always been very clear about the cultural hostility and prejudice against the mainland.

Lu Yixuan realized that the timing of his preparations for this visit may have been really far behind.

Seeing that Lu Yixuan was silent, Master Huang smiled and said, "Lu Sheng, don't worry too much. The weekly book club held regularly by Xiangjiang Culture and Art Center is not what you imagined. It is full of prejudice. The group participating in the book club They are all scholars who really love Chinese civilization. Many of them were originally from the mainland. Since your "Star Monthly" is a periodical whose content is completely written by mainland writers, if you have such an opportunity, it is naturally even more important. You should let more readers know about your efforts. Even if you are biased in the direction of the literary works, it is precisely because of this bias that you need to participate in more similar exchange activities.

what do you say? "

Lu Yixuan's expression was lifted: "Director Huang is right!"

I thought to myself that what I do is really too utilitarian, don't you know that cultural people like Master Huang, when it comes to the root, in the eyes of people like them, the most important thing in the world is the inheritance of civilization Next, if you want to make friends with this kind of people, if you want to really enter the world of these people, the biggest thing you can do is to read books.

What an elm lumpy head.

It's so simple, I didn't expect it.

However, when it comes to real reading exchanges, he, who has lived two lifetimes, has never participated in it once. It was really the first time in his life that a big girl got on a sedan chair!

I feel a little unfounded in my heart.

A person's cultural literacy is really not something that can be pretended if he wants to.

Moreover, the human history of this world did not change with his rebirth. The historical imprints of the past have always existed clearly, which made him want to copy a few ancient poems and pretend to be in front of everyone No chance at all.

In addition, what are the best works in the cultural world in the next 40 years...

Even if there are such handed down works, it's not that he hasn't paid much attention to them at all, and in a short while, he also can't come up with any good words at his fingertips, which will make him shock the world.

"Lu Sheng..."

"Hmm... ah! Yes, yes, Director Huang, you are quite right. The most lacking thing in the mainland and the outside world is the activities of cultural exchanges. Later, I will make suggestions with the cultural department of Nanzhen City, similar to In the future, we will arrange more representatives to participate in the exchange and study..."

Seeing Lu Yixuan's reaction, Master Huang was a little surprised, and explained: "Lu Sheng, don't get me wrong, this reading club at the Xiangjiang Culture and Art Museum is actually a very ordinary group of literature lovers gathering to exchange experiences and experiences. It's not as formal and grand as you think. Don't have too much psychological pressure. But what you said just now is worth discussing. If there is a chance, I can hold some high-level reading clubs and other folk cultural exchange activities , I think it will be very helpful and a great thing for compatriots on both sides of the strait to deepen mutual understanding."

Lu Yixuan agreed: "Director Huang, if it is possible, can you take the lead? You are the director of the Xiangjiang Culture and Art Museum, and it is very appropriate for you to take the lead. I can take care of Nanzhen City. Well, even the entire mainland literary and art circles, I can find a way to do work. It is better to hit the sun than to choose a day, which is so beneficial to the unity and progress of our outstanding sons and daughters of the entire Chinese nation, so let's settle down!"

Now it's Master Huang's turn to be stunned and speechless!

Lu Yixuan's work is really a bit of a trick, thinking that what happens is what happens, and in a few words, how does it involve the establishment of such a thing that involves folk cultural exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places.

But Lu Yixuan does things recklessly, because he knows the general trend of the world very well, even if he didn't pay too much attention to the year and month when the related folk cultural exchange activities started in his previous life, he understands that this kind of thing can definitely stand The big thing the times tested.

And, speaking of it again, as long as Master Huang is really persuaded to participate in this big event, making friends with this person is not a natural thing!

Seeing that Master Huang was stunned on the spot by what he said, Lu Yixuan decided to strike while the iron was hot and add some more ruthlessness.

He raised his hand, raised the mustache on the corner of his lips, tore off the mustache casually, then rubbed his hands on his face for a while, and when he put his hands down under Master Huang's surprised gaze, he looked A younger face appeared in front of Master Huang.

Master Huang pointed at Lu Yixuan, who had suddenly become ten years younger: "You, you... no wonder you look familiar all the time, you are the boss of Huanyu Film Company, Lu Da!"

Lu Yixuan grinned: "Director Huang, it's really presumptuous, you don't mind my visit in this way, boy!"

Chapter 1085 Reading Club

Chapter 1085 Reading Club

Lu Yixuan's popularity in Xiangjiang is definitely not a cover.

Even though he has worked hard to reduce his exposure to the outside world over the years, and rarely let his own video and photos appear in the media, he is famous after all.

In addition, in the recent period, the most breaking news in Xiangjiang is that Universal Pictures has been slammed in unison.

And now the hot release of "Resident Evil 3" has once again set off a frenzy of 3D stereoscopic sci-fi blockbusters in the giant screen theater in Hung Hom.

Under this situation of prosperity and decline, the reputation of Universal Pictures is naturally famous.

In short, for all kinds of reasons, as long as you are a local resident of Xiangjiang, whoever says you don't know who the boss of Huanyu Films Lu Da is, that's really big news.

Master Huang obviously had a great admiration for Boss Lu.

After Lu Yixuan showed his true face, fans started to react with excitement when meeting an idol: "Lu, Lu Sheng...you are really...you are really..."

I repeated a sentence several times, but I just couldn't say the second half of the sentence.

Master Huang rubbed his hands, and hurriedly asked Lu Yixuan to sit on the main seat behind his desk. He himself quickly moved a wooden stool over, placed it on the opposite side of the desk, and sat down nervously. , as if a subordinate entered the leadership office and prepared to report on his work.

Seeing that Lu Yixuan was still standing, he immediately stood up excitedly: "Lu Sheng, please sit down! Lu Sheng, would you like tea or coffee?"

"Let's have some tea!"

"Then Lu Sheng, wait a moment, I happen to have a high-quality Biluochun here..."

"Uh... Director Huang, you are too polite!"

"No, no, what kind of politeness is that.

Lu Sheng, it is a great honor for you to visit me, Mr. Huang.

In fact, Lu Sheng, you just need someone to call and let me know if there is anything I can do to help, I will definitely devote [-]% of my energy to it.

really,

Although you are from the Mainland, Lu Sheng,

But these years, the achievements you have made in establishing Universal Pictures in Hong Kong have been seen by all Hong Kong citizens.

Especially now, you are alone against the bullying feat of Hollywood in North America, we ordinary citizens are all excited..."

While rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find the best tea in his collection, Master Huang spoke passionately from his heart.

Lu Yixuan was really scratching his head, and sat down reluctantly.

Then he looked at the figure of Master Huang who was extremely excited and busy, and he could only comfort himself that since he came, he would be at ease.

At first, the only reason why I didn't come to the door as the real deity was that I was worried that such a situation would happen.

It was really this kind of meeting atmosphere that made it impossible for him to say that he wanted to win Master Huang into a long-term cooperation!

Besides, after all, Master Huang hasn't started his creative path at all, so what reason does he want to ask the other party for a large amount of money for a manuscript?

There's no reason to just do that!

He was really worried that appearing as his true self would bring too many changes in Master Huang's life trajectory, good or bad.

There are too many lessons learned from this.
