Ren Nanbei was stunned by Wang Tianfeng's retort, and he felt a wave of powerlessness and helplessness in his heart.
There were too many people in the Film and Television Department, but too few good projects.
This was why he would think of having the Film and Television Department handle a good project once he saw one.
Last time, when Su Yu brought out the lost in thailand script, he directly let the Film and Television Department be fully responsible, and he thought it would be the same this time.
But it was not.
However, even if Wang Tianfeng said that, Ren Nanbei still did not think highly of Su Yu personally directing and filming a movie.
Ren Nanbei had no doubt about Su Yu's creative ability, but as a director? He could only scoff.
After all, different professions are like mountains apart!
Yet, he had no say in the matter.
Soon, amidst the sighs of the Film and Television Department staff, the approximate cost of the the chinese partner project was estimated.
It was around 75 to 80 million, with the fluctuation coming from the salaries of the three main actors.
After Wang Tianfeng had someone take the script for review, he left the Film and Television Department with the budget.
He still needed to discuss the company's investment with Han Jianhua and the others.
In the evening, Su Yu and Han Jiangxue took a car together to the Old Master's courtyard.
Upon entering the house, they found that several unfamiliar old people had come today.
Su Yu felt that they were all of Jiang Hua's generation and should have retired by now.
After a round of introductions, Su Yu felt a little shocked.
There were people from the Literary Association, the Writers Association, the Musicians Association, the Calligraphers Association, and even official educational institutions.
What was this for? A three-way interrogation?
The answer was naturally no. When Jiang Hua introduced the person from the education sector, Su Yu had already had a faint guess.
They were here for his previous poetry works.
Indeed.
"Su Yu, your four poems, "acacia", zhu shi (bamboo stone), Jiang Xue, and 《怎样》, have been selected for primary and secondary school Chinese textbooks. I actually came here this time to discuss the usage fees with you."
Wei Yan, Old Wei from the education sector, spoke with a smile after Jiang Hua finished his introduction.
His poems were selected for textbooks? And four at once?
Not to mention Han Jiangxue was a bit shocked, even Su Yu himself was a bit dumbfounded.
Although he had anticipated that these poems would not be overlooked by the official education sector, he hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.
As for why his later works, setting waves and Qing Yu An, were not selected, it was naturally because they were published too recently, and they hadn't had time to hold meetings to discuss them.
It seemed that if they wanted to get into the textbooks, they would have to wait until next time.
"It is my honor to be selected for the textbooks! Thank you, Old Wei, for valuing my poetry! As for the usage fees, one yuan per poem will do!"
Su Yu naturally wouldn't refuse. This would not only allow Earth's poetry to continue to shine on Blue Star but also greatly increase his personal prestige. He would be a fool to refuse, wouldn't he?
"That won't do! There are regulations for usage fees. Although it's not much, it cannot be changed." Wei Yan shook his head, firmly refusing.
One yuan? He was indeed tempted.
But rules were rules!
However, his favorability towards Su Yu instantly soared.
The other old people also nodded frequently, feeling that Su Yu had broadened his path.
"Su Yu, you are already a gold-medal lyricist and composer. Shouldn't you consider joining our Musicians Association?"
After Su Yu and Wei Yan signed the usage contract for the four poems, the person from the Musicians Association spoke.
"That's right, your poems have been selected for textbooks, and your identity as a poet has long been established. You should also join our Writers Association."
The person from the Yanjing Writers Association spoke next.
"Although our Calligraphers Association is small, Su Yu, you must treat us equally!"
Finally, Li Fengshan also said, not to be outdone.
Su Yu's reputation was growing, and if he didn't join an association now, it would really be inexcusable.
Actually, to join, it's usually individuals who meet the requirements who actively apply.
But Su Yu was an exception; his rise was too fast and too fierce.
The people from these associations had long been unable to sit still.
If netizens found out one day that Su Yu was not a member of their association, then guess if netizens would furiously criticize the associations for their inaction?
Such a genius, and your association doesn't even recruit him? What kind of monsters are in your association then!
So, taking advantage of the opportunity today when the education sector came to find Su Yu, all those who had a good relationship with Jiang Hua followed along.
They even brought the membership application forms. Su Yu could fill out the application, and the certificate would be mailed to his home the next day!
And could Su Yu refuse?
By the time they saw this group of people off, it was already past eight in the evening.
Su Yu's stomach also began to grumble uncooperatively.
"Eat! Eat!" Jiang Hua said with a smile, and his smile hadn't faded all evening.
When he saw Su Yu and Han Jiangxue holding hands as they entered, he knew that those old guys would be incredibly envious.
Subsequently, the selection of four poems into textbooks and the eager invitations from various associations all made Jiang Hua feel proud.
How about it? My grandson-in-law is amazing, right? Envy yourselves to death, you old guys!
As for what would happen to Jiang Hua, who was overly happy? Naturally, he got drunk.
However, when he was in high spirits from drinking, he insisted on dragging Su Yu to his collection room and told Su Yu to take whatever he liked.
Jiang Hua was drunk, but Su Yu was forbidden to drink, and four people took turns watching him.
So how could he possibly take someone else's collection when the Old Master was drunk?
"You want to be a director? Do you still not trust the people in the Film and Television Department?" On the way back, Han Jianhua finally couldn't help but ask about the movie.
Wang Tianfeng had approached him this afternoon and mentioned this matter.
This made Han Jianhua feel that he was not close to Su Yu anymore; Su Yu didn't even think of coming to him for such a matter!
However, upon hearing that Su Yu wanted to direct himself, he still thought a lot about it.
Just like Wang Tianfeng.
"I just want to try the process of being a director. Writing books and songs all the time, I feel it will solidify my thinking. I want to try new things and find inspiration."
Su Yu was talking nonsense.
But whether it was Han Jianhua, Jiang Yu, or Han Jiangxue, they all believed him.
They even nodded in agreement, deeply convinced.
"I knew you wouldn't act without a purpose! But don't put too much pressure on self, and never tire self out! Jiang Xue, you are responsible for supervising him!"
While Han Jianhua understood, he also marveled at how strong Su Yu's drive was!
If it were anyone else, having achieved Su Yu's accomplishments, it would be rare enough not to become arrogant.
But Su Yu? He actually thought of stepping out of his comfort zone and trying new things!
Such quality and drive truly made Han Jianhua admire him greatly.
"Come help me move tomorrow!" Han Jiangxue looked at Su Yu and said something that stunned all three of them.
Silly daughter, this isn't a fairytale MV, don't you consider being a little more reserved?!
