The previous audition was just one of the tests. Lin Xiwen was going to make "The Great Event in Peking", and it took a lot of trouble to invite an old literati like Hou Xiling to be the screenwriter. Obviously, he had a plan.

The role of 'cardamom' is very important, and he might not give it to himself lightly because of his jerky performance.

Even if there was a call from Gu Jiaer before, judging from Assistant Li's persuasion to accept "Erlang God: Putting Down the Chaos in the World", although Gu Jiaer's call had a certain effect, it was not so powerful that he could Release the character 'cardamom'.

But Jiang Se remembered what she had said when she met Assistant Li for the first time.

She once said that Lin Xiwen attached great importance to "The Great Event in Peking", and it took a lot of effort to invite Hou Xiling to write the script. Hou Xiling has a lot of say in this movie.

And he likes readers who admire him and read his works seriously.

Thinking of this, Jiang Se glanced at Assistant Li standing beside Lin Xiwen out of the corner of his eye, and his expression became more cautious.

"That's my alumni." When Hou Xiling said this, he took a look at Jiang Se:

"Mr. Lin said earlier that Shangjia Company has prepared two films for you. One of the films has two characters with a lot of lines and a lot of pay. Why did you finally choose the 'cardamom' in "The Great Event in Peking"?"

With burning eyes, he stared at Jiang Se through the lenses of his presbyopic glasses, waiting for Jiang Se's answer.

This question is very important. Once the answer is not good, no matter what Hou Xiling's previous impression of her is, it is very likely that Jiang Se will lose the qualification to compete for the role of "cardamom".

For a person like Hou Xiling with a literati temper, he holds a pivotal position in the Chinese literary world.

Even though his works are not in the style that young people like today, many people think highly of him among the older generation of literati. Even some senior figures in the art industry have to respect him when they see him Call Hou Lao.

He is over seventy years old, he has experienced storms in his life, and he has heard countless flattery and compliments.

Although Jiang Se was reborn, she was not very old before rebirth. It was useless to play small tricks in front of Hou Xiling, but it was disgusting.

When Lin Xiwen heard Hou Xiling raise this question, she also raised her head.

Many thoughts turned in Jiang Se's mind at this moment, and a somewhat embarrassed look appeared on his face:

"To be honest, I didn't think about it that much at first, but I just saw that you are the screenwriter."

Hou Xiling didn't speak. Jiang Se's two sentences didn't change his expression. He was still smiling, waiting for Jiang Se's next words.

Although he likes to admire his readers, what Assistant Li did not say at the time is that he does not like blindly pursuing readers, but prefers to have spiritual exchanges and dialogues with readers who can understand his works.

In fact, if it wasn't for Jiang Se's last performance, he might not have signaled Jiang Se to stay at all, let alone ask her these questions.

"When I was still reading the script, my first reaction was to pick up "The Grand Event in Peking". That's because, I know that Mr. Hou, you are very old, and you have rarely released new works in recent years."

Hou Xiling thought about many reasons, and also guessed what Jiang Se might say, and thought that she might impress him with the excellence of her work and the analysis of the character "Doumen" in the play, but he did not expect that, Jiang Se would say such words.

"When you wrote "The Autumn of the Year Before Last Year", in your article, when the protagonist Zhou Qingsong left the village at the end, he said: 'Goodbye.'." She mentioned Hou Xiling's previous works, Hou Xiling was stunned for a moment, Jiang Se Then he said:

"When I saw this, I always felt that you were using Zhou Qingsong's mouth to say goodbye to the readers who loved you. I'm afraid that you had planned to stop writing at that time."

The smile on Hou Xiling's face was slowly retracted, his expression gradually softened from hesitation, and he looked at Jiang Se with some appreciation.

He didn't make a sound, but just made a gesture to signal Jiang Se to continue.

"So when I saw that "The Great Event in Peking" came from your hand, I was thinking, this opportunity should not be missed." Jiang Se said here, since he was not interrupted politely by Hou Xiling, it proved that what he just said was not true. Wrong, "As I said before, you are old, and there may not be many opportunities to produce works in the future. If I miss "The Great Event in Peking", I may spend my whole life. If I want to be able to participate in the performance of your works again There may not be many opportunities for character stories."

As we all know, Hou Xiling has an extraordinary love for his works. The copyright of his portfolio is all in his own hands, and he has never delivered it.

He didn't want his works to be put on the big screen and tarnish the characters in his plays, so he would rather stay poor than write any more.

The reason why he closed his pen was not only because he was getting old and his body was getting too much, the bigger reason was that he didn't want to write for the sake of writing anymore.

If there are no readers who know him, understand him, and understand what he wants to express in his book, then if he continues to write, it will already lose its meaning.

The older generation of writers have their own persistence. He is unwilling to bow down for five buckets of rice. That kind of pride is even carved into his bones. What's more, it took a lot of effort, lobbying him for a long time, and finally tortured Hou Xiling for nearly three years, and agreed to many conditions. Some of the family reasons of Hou's family were not humane, so Lin Xiwen got his wish.

"I thought that in this century, few people could understand what Zhou Qingsong said." Hou Xiling sighed, took off his glasses, and Lin Xiwen handed over the handkerchief, and he thanked him , gently wiped his forehead and the corners of his eyes:

"Maybe those who understand my state of mind are already those old guys. I didn't expect to hear someone say that to me today."

With the development and changes of current events, young people prefer fast food culture, and the works of the older generation are submerged in the torrent of history.

Sometimes even if a few passages are selected from the textbook, students may not be able to understand more.

When he wrote "Autumn of the Year Before Last Year", he really planned to close his pen. After many years of writing, he did not rely on a computer to type like young people today, but wrote many works with a pen, one stroke at a time. Over the past ten years, it has caused a lot of damage to the body and left many sequelae.

At that time, his health was already a little too much, and he was disappointed with the gradual decline of traditional writers, so he came up with such an idea.
