Chapter 91: “Aftershock” Copyright

(Thanks to “Resurrection of Demonic Qi” for becoming the leader of this book, Wencheng Wude, and unifying the rivers and lakes!)

Where there is inequity, there is opportunity. In this kind of place, the price is expensive and the food is not delicious. Then, if Chinese people open their stores abroad, the return on investment that can be harvested by authentic Chinese restaurants is also great. However, there are certain thresholds for opening Chinese restaurants in foreign countries. When Chinese people want to open a store abroad, the first problem is the cost of capital, which makes it impossible for most people to do this. The local Chinese may be able to make Chinese food, but due to the local situation, it is often difficult for them to purchase enough ingredients. , so that “it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice”.

However, Zhang Yong felt that his funds must be sufficient, and now he has unknowingly set up a not very small enterprise in the local area. With this TF company as an intermediary, he can introduce Chinese food from China. , may be able to break this situation. A business idea, already formed in the mind.

But this kind of plan cannot be implemented for the time being, so Zhang Yong is just thinking about it. Now their main task is to first determine the copyright for the shooting of “Tangshan Earthquake”.

After a two-hour flight, we arrived at Cincinnati International Airport. The city of Cincinnati is only a small city with a population of only 300,000, so the arrival of Zhang Yong is also a big event for this small city. What Zhang Yong didn’t expect was that this time, except for Cruise, the manager of his branch that Tom said, he was going to see Zhang Ling, the author of the novel “Aftershock”, and he was also in the pick-up line. Inside, there are representatives of local Chinese organizations.

It was already 4:30 in the afternoon when Zhang Yong and his party got off the plane. Under the leadership of Zhang Ling, they went to a small local Chinese community and had a simple dinner together.

In the city of Cincinnati, there are not many resident Chinese, only a few hundred people, but everyone is very united. In addition to these resident Chinese, there are many universities in this city, and there are also many domestic students here, so if this city really integrates into the Chinese circle, you can still meet many Chinese.

As a Chinese who has lived abroad for nearly 20 years, although Zhang Ling has not returned to China for many years, she still loves the country very much and pays great attention to it. Therefore, during her stay in the United States, she also wrote a number of books on memories of China, especially It is a novel that recalls the painful history of the Tangshan earthquake in China. The representative works include “Aftershock”, “Goose Crossing the Zaoxi”, “Golden Mountain”, “Pain”, etc. Through these works, one is to express her own thoughts for the motherland, and the other is to express her thoughts for the motherland. It is also to record this unforgettable history, so that future generations can never forget the past, and be prepared for danger in times of peace, so that they can live in real safety.

The novel “Aftershock” is about the early morning of July 28, 1976, a 7.6 earthquake turned Tangshan into ruins within 23 seconds. Faced with the desperate situation where she could only save one of her two children, a young mother had no choice but to sacrifice her sister to save her younger brother. This decision changed the fate of the entire family, and the sister also survived, and was trapped 30 years after the earthquake. story of emotional distress.

This novel not only shows the damage caused by the earthquake to Tangshan, but also focuses on the strong aftershocks caused by the catastrophe in the hearts of those who experienced it. When it was published, many people thought that the author was the girl who survived. I wanted to send her warmth and love, but I didn’t expect that she is a writer with a very high professional level, and this writer’s description of the relationship between disasters and human feelings is also vivid and unforgettable. The novel “Aftershock” has a sensational effect on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, and the novel has won many major literary awards.

In 2005, “Aftershock” had been adapted into the TV series “Tangshan Earthquake” (also known as “Tangshan Love”), and it was first broadcast on Changzhou TV a year ago. But the quality of this TV series is not very high, and it is only broadcast on local TV stations, so the effect is not very high. This time, Zhang Yong wants to adapt this book into a movie again, because Zhang Ling and Zhang Yong are also considered to have the same surname, and they belonged to the same family five hundred years ago, and also learned that Zhang Yong is a very famous and successful screenwriter, so it is also very I think this book was handed over to Zhang Yong for adaptation.

In this ice disaster along the Yangtze River, Zhang Yong’s performance in the ice disaster has made him a high charitable reputation. Zhang Ling’s book, to a large extent, is only intended to be of educational significance. Descendants know the huge destructiveness of the earthquake, so that future generations can know a little how to deal with the earthquake, so when Zhang Yong, a big philanthropist, asked Zhang Ling to buy the adaptation rights of “Aftershock”~www.readwn.com~ Zhang Ling thought I didn’t even think about it, I just agreed, and just put forward two requirements: one is that the film must be released nationwide, the price must be affordable, so that as many people as possible can see it; the other is that the film must be inserted into the film Experts teach the content of earthquake self-rescue and mutual rescue knowledge. Of course, Zhang Yong agreed to these two requirements. The film must be released in the first place, and adding some self-rescue and mutual rescue knowledge is also very useful in dealing with the earthquake after 5 months. This is Zhang Yong’s original intention.

In the end, at this dinner, Zhang Yong and Zhang Ling had already successfully signed the agreement. As for the cost of signing the agreement, Zhang Yong did not pay a penny, and not only did not pay, but Zhang Ling and the Cincinnati Chinese Friendship Association she represented, donated 800,000 US dollars in cash and asked Zhang Yong to help Take it back home and donate it to the affected people on their behalf. As for whether you are afraid that Zhang Yong will take the money and not work? Impossible, Zhang Yong himself has donated so much, this little money, compared to Zhang Yong’s personal donation, is really a drop in the bucket.

What Zhang Yong didn’t expect was that although Zhang Ling didn’t charge a cent from them, he didn’t want anything. Recently, Du Xiaoyu has become obsessed with spicy food, so when Du Xiaoyu went abroad, he brought a lot of packaged foods such as spicy beef jerky, spicy strips, and Laoganma. eat. It is also because of these foods that the relationship between Du Xiaoyu and Zhang Ling has become particularly good. Zhang Yong really didn’t expect that foodies, dealing with food and making friendships, can be so reliable.

Is it really so delicious? Zhang Yong also wanted to get some to try. “Go, go, grab my snacks and eat them, don’t give them! I’m going to share these snacks with Sister Zhang, if you want, buy them yourself after returning home!”
