Back to 80: My Literary Life

Fang Minghua was not much surprised when he saw this name.

Is this Su Tong that Su Tong?

unimportant.

These future backbones in the domestic literary world in the 1980s and 1990s began to emerge in various forms in the literary world.

It's early May, and one thing is eye-catching in the mainland film industry: the nomination list for the major awards of the third Golden Rooster Awards will be announced soon. The selected candidates will participate in the Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony to be held in Rongcheng, Fujian Province at the end of May. It will be announced at that time. Winners list.

"Into the Dust" filmed by Wu Tianmin, as one of the recommended works of the West Film Studio, also participated in the competition for this year's Golden Rooster Award.

At the same time, the 6th "Popular Film" Hundred Flowers Award Ceremony was also held in Rongcheng.

Yesterday was May Day, and Fang Minghua and his family went to Xingqing Park to play for most of the day, which was considered a holiday.

Although there are many tourist attractions in Xijing, in the early 1980s and early 1980s, there were not many interesting things to do.

There is no Big Wild Goose Pagoda Square and no Sleepless City of the Tang Dynasty. There is only the Big Wild Goose Pagoda standing alone in the middle of the field. The surrounding vegetable fields are now deserted and I heard that they will be expropriated soon.

Seeing the Terracotta Warriors and Horses once is enough, but the next time you look at them, they are just mud dolls. You can't move one home. As for Lishan Huaqing Pool, there is no hot spring place for a long time.

The bell tower and the museum are the same, but the ancient city wall is more interesting. In this era of loose management, you can go up as you like. Walking on the wide city wall, stepping on the blue bricks, it feels like dreaming back to Chang'an. The moat next to it is now It has turned into a smelly ditch, which is a disgrace to the scenery.

Therefore, going to Xingqing Park to go gardening has become the first choice for many families. As a result, there are too many people and they are almost exhausted.

Might as well go to work.

After lunch today, Fang Minghua had nothing to do and wanted to take a nap in the dormitory. He was lying on the bed before he fell asleep when he heard a knock on the door from outside: "Minghua! Minghua!"

Wu Tianmin.

Fang Minghua had no choice but to put on his coat and go out to open the door, and saw Wu Tianmin's face full of excitement.

He was a little surprised: "Brother Wu, didn't you take the crew to Qinbei to film "Life"? You haven't left yet?"

"Leave tomorrow, I'll tell you some good news!" Wu Tianmin said as he entered the room and sat down on the chair.

"What good news?"

"Look at this!"

As Wu Tianmin spoke, he took out a newspaper from the artificial leather briefcase he carried with him and handed it to Fang Minghua.

It's "Guangming Daily"

The fourth page impressively publishes the list of nominations for this year’s Golden Rooster Awards!

Fang Minghua took a closer look and found that there were many nominations for "Into the Dust", four in total:

"Best Feature Film", "Best Director", "Best Screenplay" and "Best Actress".

"Not bad, Brother Wu." Fang Minghua said with a smile.

"It's okay. What I'm here to tell you today is that Lu Yao and I will go to Qinbei to film immediately. We will definitely not be able to make it in time for the awards ceremony in Rongcheng at the end of May. If we can win the "Best Feature Film" and "Best Director" , you go and get the former, and you get the latter on my behalf.”

"Okay, no problem." Fang Minghua agreed happily, and then said, "But Brother Wu, you can also go to the scene. It only takes a few days by train now."

"Forget it, it's still important to make the film. It's not appropriate to leave the crew in Qinbei on a hot day while the director runs away. One extra day will cost one extra day."

"That's okay. When your film "Life" wins the award, you can go and receive the award in person."

"Haha, I just want you to give me good advice and let's go! I'll go to Lu Yao's place to discuss the script." After Wu Tianmin said that, he turned around and left.

Lu Yao also took the lead this time, adapting his own "Life" as a screenwriter.

After Wu Tianmin left, Fang Minghua picked up the newspaper and read it carefully.

There are four films nominated for "Best Feature Film". In addition to "Into the Dust", there are also three films "Middle Age", "Camel Xiangzi" and "Old Stories in the South of the City". The competition is very fierce.

However, in this era of the Golden Rooster Awards, each individual award does not necessarily only judge one movie or one person, there is still a chance.

The best directors are Wu Yigong's "Old Stories in the South of the City", Ling Zifeng's "Camel Xiangzi", Teng Wenji's "Village in the City", and Wu Tianmin's "Into the Dust" are also four.

Best Actress: Siqin Gaowa as Huniu in "Camel Xiangzi"; Pan Hong as Lu Wenting in "Middle Age", and Zhu Lin.

Haha, they are all old actors.

But it is now 1983, which should be regarded as the Mesozoic era in the film industry. Zhu Lin wants to compete with them. I wonder if he can win?

After going to work in the afternoon, Fang Minghua also received a call from Zhu Lin from Chengdu.

"Sister Zhu Lin, is the filming of "Youth" finished?" Fang Minghua asked on the phone.

"Yes, it was finished not long ago. I just came back from southern Xinjiang last week."

"Is it hard?"

"How can you act well in a movie if you don't have to work hard?" Zhu Lin replied on the phone, and then asked: "Xiao Fang, have you seen the nomination list for this year's Golden Rooster Awards published in Guangming Daily? "

"Yesterday, Brother Wu showed it to me. Congratulations."

"Xiao Fang, what's the relationship between us? There's no need to be so polite, right? Will you go to Rongcheng to attend the ceremony?"

"You should go. Brother Wu also said that he will take the crew to Qinbei to shoot "Life" immediately. I don't think he has time. If he wins, let me accept it on his behalf."

"Really? Director Wu can't go? It's a bit regretful, so I won't say more. Long-distance calls are expensive. Let's meet in Rongcheng and have a good chat. Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

When Fang Minghua hung up the phone, he saw Bai Miao sitting opposite looking at him.

"Xiao Fang, who is this girl? We are having such a lively chat?"

"Zhu Lin played Cao Guiying in "Into the Dust". This film received four nominations, Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Actress. He will go to Rongcheng to attend the ceremony at the end of the month." Fang Minghua be honest.

"Zhu Lin? This woman is really beautiful," Bai Miao praised her twice, then suddenly thought of something.

“‘Into the Dust’ is nominated, you’re in for a treat!”

"Brother Bai, I didn't make this movie. Besides, it's just a nomination. Whether it will win or not is still a matter of two words."

"Then please pre-invite!"

I # ￥%……

On the afternoon of May 23, Fang Minghua took his travel bag and boarded the train to Rongcheng.

Before leaving, Song Tangtang came to see him off, and the two of them arrived at the train station together.

"Tangtang, you don't have to come at all. The train station is quite chaotic." Fang Minghua was worried about her safety.

It's been really rough lately.

"It's okay, I'm wearing a military uniform, who dares to touch me?" Song Tangtang said with a smile.

"It's better to be careful."

"Well, Minghua, when you arrive in Fuzhou, say hello to Sister Zhu Lin for me."

"Yes, please come back quickly."

After watching the girl get on the bus, Fang Minghua was about to enter the station.

In this era, there was no direct train from Xijing to Rongcheng, and it had to be changed twice. When arriving in Zhengzhou in the evening, Fang Minghua got off the train, stayed in the waiting room for more than an hour, and then boarded the long-distance train from Yanjing to Huacheng. .

Zhengzhou is a large station, and there are many passengers at the station. They are not all cadres and employees carrying simple travel clothes and neatly going on business, but more are farmers carrying large and small bags.

Many of them are traveling far away for the first time. They are excited and nervous, but they still cannot stop their desire for the outside world. With dreams and a desire for wealth, they set foot on the train going south.

The first generation of migrant workers appeared.
