Reborn 1990: I made my cannon fodder father into the richest man

Duan Jiajia's new book "Goddess Catching" has also aroused a lot of discussion once it was released.

It's just that "Ask the Sword" has a bold setting and almost opened up a whole new track, and the reappearance of "Goddess Catcher" seems less amazing.

Just at this time, the domestic box office rankings for this year have also been listed.

"Ghost Valley 1" appeared in the fourth position.

Although it was only fourth, the film market in 1993 was unprecedentedly prosperous and upward.

Over in the capital, there is "Farewell My Concubine" which won an international award, and there is also "Sunny Days", the film debut of a certain Chinese quintessence director. Xiangjiang has become the hottest comedian in the 1990s. The actor known as "Master Xing" by major media has brought "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".

The comedy-drama "The East Comes West" is a comedy drama in which movie kings and movie queens go crazy together.

Not to mention that there are also two classic works of the Kung Fu Emperor in the martial arts film "Once Upon a Time" and "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng".

It is simply a miracle that a movie directed by Hu Lai and starring Liu Piaopiao can achieve fourth place at the box office in such a movie environment.

The most important thing is that the investment in "Ghost Valley 1" is actually not high.

Duan Jiajia only invested tens of thousands of yuan, but in the end he received nearly 200,000 yuan, which did not include the cost of selling CDs that were recorded later and given at the end of the year.

No wonder so many people later poured into this industry. Making money was real money, but investment risks were also high.

Duan Jiajia also received a call from Hu Lai at this time.

"Walking the red carpet?" Duan Jiajia shook her head quickly: "I don't want to! I don't plan to do front-of-screen work."

Hu Lai knew that Duan Jiajia didn't like to be in the limelight, let alone appear in front of the camera, so he had to say: "But you don't want to go and see that side of Xiangjiang? I heard that the TV station filmed your "Ghost Valley" last time, and the ratings were good. Later, we sent the CDs here to sell, and the sales were very good. Now they are planning to buy the copyright of "Goddess Catcher" from you, don't you think about it?"

That's right.

It's not "Ask the Sword".

Instead, the 40,000-word "Goddess Catcher" was serialized in the magazine, and the time-travel short story that was read by many people on the North-South Forum.

""Goddess Catching"?" Duan Jiajia was a little surprised. The book only had tens of thousands of words.

Do the people at Xiangjiang TV Station believe in her work so blindly?

Even if you include the manuscript that Duan Jiajia sent to Chen Zhengnian, it's only 100,000 words. It's just getting into a better state. What can you shoot?

With the way the two TV stations in Hong Kong operate, they usually save and save. How could they spend money in advance to buy the rights to a TV series?

Duan Jiajia thought for a while and said: "It should be the short story, right? There are too few "Goddess Catcher", and it doesn't look like the style of the TV station over there."

Hu Lai chuckled: "Absolutely. But maybe they also have intentions. After all, your book "Ask the Sword" said that the current technology is not easy to shoot, isn't there someone who wants to inquire about the copyright? Uncle asked people in the industry I can tell you from my experience that you can find a reliable production company for "Question of the Sword" and try to sell it. This thing has a lifespan, and it's up to others to make it or not. Wait until a better one comes out in a few years. , the price is not that much. If you believe me, you can also let me take the photo."

Hu Lai was obviously joking after saying this.

He had chatted with Duan Jiajia about the "Ask the Sword" project. After just a brief chat, Hu Lai knew that what he wanted to shoot was completely different from what Duan Jiajia wanted to present.

If they collaborated on the project "Ask the Sword", they would probably quarrel every day.

On the other hand, Hu Lai is still a little interested in "Goddess Catching".

"We have a company now, so I'm not in a hurry for "Ask the Sword"." Duan Jiajia is telling the truth.

Even if he wants to shoot, Duan Jiajia will not consider it until computer technology gets better.

Otherwise, with the current technology and price, even if Duan Jiajia wants to do it, it will be too difficult to get back the money.

Inadvertently, it turned into a certain old monster's "Shu Mountain". It was later considered by many fans and audiences to be a hidden gem in the ocean, but at the time, it suffered a lot from a certain old weirdo.

Hu Lai knew that Duan Jiajia had his own ideas, but he still hoped that Duan Jiajia could follow him to Xiangjiang.

"The film and television industry there is still booming, and I also want to see the film industry there. Moreover, you have to admit that although the props are crudely made and the scenery is poor, when it comes to filming, no matter the plot, The rhythm, the actors' acting skills, and the music soundtrack are all really good. Our place is still suitable for learning."

The TV series and movies on the mainland are not bad, but their business models are still not as complete as others.

"You also need to know these connections. You are no longer a student, and you are not just a writer. You are also one of the bosses of a company. Now Chen Zhengnian is because this place is not completely on the right track, and Chen Zhengnian does not want to work with the group. The headquarters is in disbelief, so we keep it under wraps. You can't count on Chen Zhengnian for everything." This is what Hu Lai is thinking.

From a relative's perspective, Hu Lai's belief in Chen Zhengnian is definitely not as good as his belief in Duan Jiajia.

From an elder's perspective, he hoped that Duan Jiajia would realize as soon as possible that she was no longer the child in the ivory tower.

From the perspective of a partner, Hu Lai said when he invested that he would not be too involved in the company's internal affairs, but if only one Chen Zhengnian was useful, Hu Lai would definitely not invest. Because Chen Zhengnian's ability is not enough to pull such a ship forward.

Duan Jiajia seemed to have been hit hard on the head by something.

On the other end of the phone, Hu Lai was still talking.

"Didn't you handle the matter about the office location last time very well?" Hu Lai actually learned some inside information from Duan Shunan, but Duan Shunan didn't want the Hu family to interfere, so the Hu family just ignored it.

Just because he doesn't care doesn't mean he will watch Duan Jiajia suffer.

Although Duan Jiajia later asked Duan Shunan to get the matter settled, for an eighteen-year-old girl, her performance during this period was acceptable.

The children of the Hu family who are the same age as Duan Jiajia are not as capable as her.

Duan Jiajia, who blushed a little after being praised, rolled her hair that had grown to her chest, thought for a while and said, "Yeah. Please tell me the specific time so that I can ask for leave from the school."

"No problem. Do you have any requirements for clothes, jewelry, etc.?" Hu Lai said, seeming to have guessed what Duan Jiajia would think, and quickly said: "I know you have a friend who is studying design, but she is still a freshman. Student, there’s no need! Just ask for it and I’ll find it for you. Grandma still has a lot of jewelry waiting for you to get it!”

Hu Lai said it bluntly.

Duan Jiajia pouted, but he also knew that what he said was right.
