Chapter 147 Farewell 2001

In a blink of an eye, it was the last day of 2001. On this day, Zhang Duo did not stay outside, but rarely returned home to stay with his parents.

In the next month or so, Zhang Duo took time to shoot the winter promotional video of Xingshan tourist attractions. After it was broadcast on Songjiang Satellite TV, the effect was surprisingly good. At the beginning, the reason why I chose to wait until winter was that I wanted to take the banner of Lin Haixueyuan. After all, in the northeast, the most famous is ice and snow tourism.

But the problem is that Songjiang Province is full of scenic spots under the banner of ice and snow tourism. The content is similar and the reputation is not much different, so that tourists from afar have no choice. Nowadays, Zhang Duo, a well-known domestic writer and star, has come forward to advertise, which naturally gives everyone priority to Xingshan Scenic Area.

After a few snows, the Xingshan Scenic Area immediately surged with tourists, hundreds of times more than the receptionists at the beginning of the year, which made the secretaries and mayors of Xingshan City very satisfied, and even ordinary Xingshan citizens were very proud.

Not to mention these big and small businesses in Xingshan City. After all, if there is a flow of traffic, they can do business, can support their families, and make a fortune. At this time, Zhang Duo's reputation in Xingshan City increased greatly, and most people praised it. If you talk about it outside, you will look even more proud.

The Xingshan Municipal Government symbolically gave Zhang Duo 100,000 yuan of endorsement fee. Although it was far lower than Zhang Duo's value, he knew that the money was not easy to take, so he donated it to his primary and secondary school alma mater. Before donating to Xingshan No.1 Middle School, Zhang Duo donated money to his primary and secondary school alma mater, but the money was small and few people knew it, so he didn't see the newspaper. This time he just added some more.

In addition, Zhang Duo spent most of his time shooting The Legend of the Condor Heroes, which has been completed and is now in post-production. It is estimated that it will be released during the Spring Festival.

As for Wanbang Film and Television's other red classic masterpiece "Bright Sword", the post-production has been completed, and even the playback license has been issued. The first round of broadcasting rights were jointly purchased by Songjiang Satellite TV, Jingcheng Satellite TV, Yongzhou Satellite TV and Chuzhou Satellite TV at a sky-high price of 1.8 million episodes. However, due to the entertainment restriction order of the General Administration, it is impossible for this play to be broadcast on 37 TV stations at the same time like Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils!

Another good news is that after Ba Song's matchmaking, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils successfully landed in Thailand. Once it was broadcast, it triggered a viewing frenzy. Countless people enthusiastically discussed Qiao Feng, Duan Yu, Murong Fu and Wang Yuyan, and were shocked by the handsome men and beautiful women appearing in the film.

After Dominating the Thai TV series market, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils continued to sweep Southeast Asia. Wherever it went, it landed on the country's audience rating champion, making Zhang Duo's influence in Southeast Asia unparallable for a while.

The happiest of this is Ba Song. The fire of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils has driven the demand for dialogue martial arts novels in Southeast Asia. Martial arts novels are close to oriental culture, so they are particularly popular in South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia. Not only have Zhang Duo's several martial arts novels been exported to foreign countries, but also the books of Wang Cheng and other well-known martial arts novel writers in China have been sold to Southeast Asia, and many books have been translated and published locally. At present, Zhang Duo's martial arts novels alone have been published in Thai and Malay translations, making Zhang Duo and Wan Sheng's books a lot of money.

On the side of Songjiang Morning Post, "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" has been serialized for more than a month, and the story has also been carried out for one-third. Zhang Duo is a little inexplicably distressed. It is said that the new martial arts novel is really not suitable for the update of ten thousand words! This is to write a little less! After he copies the martial arts classics of Jin and Gu, he doesn't have to write martial arts novels. After all, even "Books and Swords" can become the target for others to attack him!

After more than half a year of development, the average daily circulation of Songjiang Morning Post has reached 1.83 million copies, only below 1.97 million copies of the Northeast Evening News. The reason for the low ranking is that the newspaper's background is insufficient, not the strength of Zhang Duo's novels.

Wang Cheng is currently familiar with writing martial arts novels. After the end of "Dragon Travels the World", he opened another martial arts novel with the theme of "Anti-Qing and Restoration", which is being serialized in the Northeast Evening News, which is not inferior to Zhang Duo for a while.

The Songjiang Cup novel competition, which has been reviewed for more than half a year, also issued an announcement a few days ago. Most of the manuscripts have been reviewed, and there is only a ranking problem left. About ten days later, the results of the preliminary competition were announced, but the participants who had been waiting for more than half a year were cold. Among the 210,000 contestants, there must be many talented people. It can be predicted that the literary world in 2002 will not be calm.

The Golden Dragon Awards of China TV held in late January 2002 will not be calm. Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils won a total of 13 nominations, including Best TV Series, Best Director, Best Screenwriter, Best Newcomer, Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Original Music.

Among them, Zhang Duo alone won five nominations for Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best New Artist, Best Actor and Best Original Music.

It is worth mentioning that songs such as "The Difficult Classic" and Love Transfer originally sung by Zhang Duo have been recorded in the first album of Gao Zhonghua. However, the sales volume is only average, with only more than 30,000 copies, which has just passed the gold record standard in the mainland. Although Gao Zhonghua's performance is relatively good among the newcomers, it still makes Song Siwei sigh. It is always said that if Zhang Duo comes to record, the sales volume will definitely be more than three platinum.

Zhang Duo had to persuade Song Siwei that after the broadcast of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, Gao Zhonghua will definitely become popular, and there will be more than ten platinum. Song Siwei said that your Yang Kang covered Guo Jing's limelight. Fortunately, Guo Jing was the protagonist, otherwise Gao Zhonghua would run away, but Zhang Duo was a little embarrassed.

Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils has become popular among many people, but among the three brothers, Gao Zhonghua, who plays Xu Zhu, is the least famous. A total of six people were shortlisted for the Best Actor in the China TV Golden Dragon Award. Ji Liancheng, who played Qiao Feng, and Zhang Duo, who played Duan Yu, were selected, but Gao Zhonghua was not even nominated.

Zhang Duo had to pat Song Siwei's shoulder and comfort him that Gao Zhonghua would definitely become the company's first film and television song superstar, but Song Siwei smiled and said nothing. Zhang Duo didn't know how much he believed.

At Zhang Duo's home in Bincheng, Wang Shuying was cooking in the kitchen, Zhang Tong was playing with the computer in his room, and Zhang Zhenxing was talking with Zhang Duo in the study. Looking at the quaint study and a book that has almost never been turned over, Zhang Duo can't help laughing.

Zhang Zhenxing, like many people who have not read many books but suddenly become rich, likes to decorate the atmosphere with books, although he has hardly read these books. The most interesting thing is that Zhang Duo's novels were put on the bookshelf one by one. Looking at Zhang Duo, he always muttered, which entrepreneur decorated his face with martial arts novels!

Zhang Zhenxing is very proud. He will tirelessly introduce to everyone who visits his study when his son published the book.

Zhang Zhenxing sat in a chair and said to Zhang Duo solemnly, "What was the relationship between that girl and you last time?"

Zhang Duo blinked his eyes and said confusedly, "That girl?"

"Don't be careless with me, do you know who I'm talking about? It was the girl who gave you a 10% discount when Mengke Home opened before. What on earth do you have to do with her?

Zhang Duo's eyes turned around and remembered the unfinished building under his father's plate. After completion, it was finely decorated. Because the design is fashionable, the price is fair, and the price is not bad.

When the Mengke Home of Revitalizing Real Estate opened, he also solemnly sent an invitation letter to Zhang Duo. As a result, Zhang Duo refused to attend on the grounds that he was busy filming. Zhang Zhenxing was so angry that he made a phone call and trained Zhang Duo. Zhang Duo had to take several artists from Wanbang to support Zhenxing Real Estate.

On the opening day, Zhou Kunzhen's family also went to Mengke Real Estate to see the house and prepared to change a new house. They happened to meet Zhang Duo. Zhang Duo felt that Zhou Canzhen was affectionate with himself. Since there was no result, it was good to give her a discount, so he asked Zhang Zhenxing for a minimum discount.

Zhang Zhenxing is a superior. Of course, he will not give Zhang Duo a discount. Although he doubts the relationship between the two, he did not ask in detail. Unexpectedly, Zhang Duo ran back and forth, and Zhang Zhenxing was also busy socializing. Until now, the father and son did not have a chance to talk in detail.

Zhang Duo thought for a moment and suddenly realized, "You said Zhou Cong! She is a fan of mine. She has been in contact with her several times and is a friend.

Zhang Zhenxing stared angrily and said, "You bastard, you also ask me for a discount for people who haven't been in much contact with. If you don't know what you say, let's make more than 20,000 yuan less!"

Zhang Duo smiled and said, "Dad, your real estate company is also a daily gold bull. Do you care so much about it?"

Zhang Zhenxing scolded, "You bastard, of course you have to be careful in business... Don't change the topic and be honest, are you dating?"

Zhang Duo admitted frankly: "There is one, and he has been in a place for more than a year!"

Zhang Zhenxing did not get angry as he expected, but said calmly, "You are in that industry, and it's good to have a fixed girlfriend. One day I'll bring it home for dinner and see you!"

Zhang Duo was very grateful for his father's generous attitude and nodded and said, "Before and after the Spring Festival, I'll take her home for a visit!"

Zhang Zhenxing suddenly asked, "Have you seen her parents?"

"I have eaten with her parents several times!"

Zhang Zhenxing laughed and scolded, "You stinky boy, you are thick-skinned enough, and now you start to walk away from your father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

Zhang Duo smiled and said, "Men must be bold, careful and thick-skinned, so that they can chase girls!"
