Chapter 194 It turns out that I wasn’t the one being licked by the dog (vote request)
The atmosphere was a little awkward.

This was the first time that Lin Yicheng heard this story from Old Lin.

Old Lin used his own painful experience to teach Lin Yicheng a lesson, and taught him to be careful with his words when speaking in the future.

Otherwise, the cost will be too high.

"Dad, why is my mom prejudiced against actors, especially actresses?" Lin Yicheng changed the subject to ease the awkwardness.

He really wants to know the answer to this question so that he can find the right solution in the future.

"This should also be related to me." Lao Lin said.

Lin Yicheng was stunned. How could it be related to Old Lin again?

……

"No, Dad, how many things are you hiding from me? Why do I feel like I'm the least important person in the family?"

"You weren't even born at that time, how would you know?" Old Lin said unhappily. He was the one with the lowest status in the family.

"Then tell me."

"Back then, I was considered a half-art soldier in the army. Whenever there was a performance or a consolation event and they were short of manpower, they would call me over."

Lao Lin is really multi-talented. He can write, draw, and play various musical instruments, especially the erhu, which he plays very well. He is also good at singing Qinqiang, which is so authentic!
"At that time, there was a female arts soldier who was interested in me and I liked her too." Lao Lin said this with a nostalgic tone.

"Ah?" Lin Yicheng's gossip fire suddenly ignited.

"It's a pity that it didn't work out in the end, otherwise you wouldn't be here." Lao Lin sighed.

"Why?" Lin Yicheng asked.

"Her family background is not good and she is from another place. Your grandfather doesn't agree." Lao Lin said briefly.

Lin Yicheng suddenly realized.

In those days, people attached great importance to this, especially families like his whose ancestors had a good family background.

"Later, I met your mother and had you. Everything was fine, but one day, she wrote me a letter and told me that she was going to be an actress. As a result, I happened to be away from home, and the letter was delivered to your mother." Lao Lin's tone was very sad.

"From then on, your mother no longer had a good impression of actors."

Okay, the root of the problem has been found, it’s the grievances of the older generation.

……

"Dad, is this aunt still an actress?" Lin Yicheng asked carefully.

He used to be an art soldier in Shaanxi Province and then an actor. If he is still in the circle, we can find out later.

"Don't ask. She's not an actress now."

Old Lin saw through Lin Yicheng's thoughts at a glance and pointed them out directly.

"I guess you should know her too." Lao Lin said again.

"Ok?"

"She once played the spider spirit in the 86 version of Journey to the West. I wonder if you have any impression of her." Lao Lin did not hide it.

"is her?"

Lin Yicheng was surprised. Of course he had an impression of it, whether in his previous life or in this life.

I have watched the 86 version of "Journey to the West" too many times.

Especially the goblins inside, although I can't say I know them all, I can recognize most of them.

Although the character of the Spider Spirit is not as eye-catching as the King of the Kingdom of Women and the Jade Rabbit Spirit, it is also very impressive.

If I remember correctly, this aunt's surname seemed to be Yao, but I couldn't remember her name at the moment.

……

"Her name is Yao Jia." Lao Lin said slowly, "Come to think of it, you two have dealt with her before, and she has helped you before."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Lin Yicheng was stunned. Why didn't he remember this happening?

"Why do you think the Hunan TV station was willing to buy your "Hello, Old Times"? And why did they spend a huge price on it?" Lao Lin asked back.

"Isn't it because of my fame and the popularity of the heroine?" Lin Yicheng asked puzzledly.

"Then why don't you buy other TVs?" Lao Lin asked again.

"Dad, please don't keep me in suspense." Lin Yicheng urged. "Because she was at the Hunan TV station at the time, and was the director of the Program Trading Management Center. I gave her a heads-up." Old Lin told the truth.

After hearing this, Lin Yicheng finally understood.

No wonder he felt at the beginning that the Hunan Provincial TV station was so aggressive that it was a bit like a bootlicker.

It turned out that people were not doing it for his face at all.

It’s for Lao Lin’s face!
At the same time, Lin Yicheng was also somewhat moved.

If he hadn't asked today, perhaps Lao Lin would never have told him.

……

Back then, the Shaanxi Provincial TV station couldn't afford to buy his debut work, and Old Lin had no say in it. He also had to be careful not to let people gossip about him, so he couldn't help Lin Yicheng at all.

But even so, Lao Lin still wanted to provide a safety net for his son and pave the way for him.

He would rather make Zhao Yuxia unhappy and contact Yao Jia to save the situation in a roundabout way, so that his son's life would be smoother.

Father’s love is silent.

I will just watch silently from behind and support you silently.

But I don't want to say it out loud, I don't want to express it.

"Dad, thank you." Lin Yicheng said softly.

"You are my son, who else should I help if I don't help you?" Old Lin smiled.

"Dad, I'll take care of your small treasury from now on." Lin Yicheng patted his chest and said jokingly.

"Forget it. If I dare to set up a slush fund, your mother will kick me out of this family."

……

"Dad, let's talk business. Now that you are in the office, how much weight does your words carry?" Lin Yicheng asked this. He also wanted to do something to help Old Lin.

Lao Lin is actually not that old. He is just in his early 50s and is still at the end of a man’s golden age.

If things go well in the future, after completing this term, it is entirely possible that he can go one step further and remove the word "deputy" and become the top leader in a few years!

“Of course it’s much better than before, but a deputy is still a deputy, and he still can’t make the decisions on many things.” Lao Lin said. He had no need to hide things from his own son.

"Your godfather will make progress soon, and will be mainly responsible for culture and publicity. I talked to him a few days ago. He said that he would approve more funds for the station in the future, so that I can prepare first and produce some results later."

"Dad, I have some suggestions, would you like to hear them?" Lin Yicheng said.

There are people in the court who like to be officials.

This is the truth.

In the past, even if he gave advice to Lao Lin, it was useless because Lao Lin’s opinion did not count, so his advice was in vain and might even become someone else’s political achievement.

Now, the time is ripe.

……

"Tell me about it." Old Lin was naturally aware of his son's abilities.

"Two aspects, one is high-end and classy, ​​the other is simple and down-to-earth." Lin Yicheng said.

Lao Lin didn't say anything and waited for the next step.

"Let's talk about the first one first. Where are we? It's Chang'an! The talents in the south and the generals in the north, the emperor is buried in the loess of Shaanxi."

Lin Yicheng said directly: "Chang'an City has gone through thirteen dynasties. How many treasures are hidden underground and among the people?"

"If we don't host a treasure appraisal program, we'd be doing a disservice to these treasures!"

What Lin Yicheng was talking about is the "Huashan Lunjian" program that will appear in the future.

The show "Original Time and Space" was so popular that many copycat shows were born.

Although some shitty things are inevitable, the key is to be popular.

This is especially true for the Shaanxi Provincial TV station, which is now half-dead.

The most important thing is to survive.
