Putting away his joking look, Lin Chaoyang asked seriously, and Li Tuo wrote a note to him in his heart.

"Get into the house and say."

After entering the main room and making a cup of tea, Li Tuocai said, "Nas's boyfriend is a stage play, do you know?"

"Nonsense, how long has it been since we met? Can I still forget this? You said the key point."

"He wants to talk to you on behalf of the company and introduce the "Father" drama to the United States."

"Oh, introduce it."

Lin Chaoyang was not surprised by his tone. His works have been widely sought after in recent years, not only at home but also abroad.

Film and television production companies, including Hollywood, contacted through various channels, and hoped to cooperate with countless people.

He had set up a company to manage the copyright operation almost ten years ago. Of course, he had the final say in fact.

Because Tao Yushu runs Lin's Film and Star TV, Lin Chaoyang will basically not authorize the copyright of his work to other companies, and he is not so active in copyright development now.

The main reason is that he is too lazy to worry about his work. He doesn't want to be a screenwriter.

It is easy for others to be worried when they become screenwriters.

The copyright fee is not worth thinking that he is worried so much.

Seeing Lin Chaoyang pondering on his face, Li Tuo knew that this was somewhat embarrassing. If his daughter had not spoken,

He doesn't want to bother his old friends either.

"I just ask them, don't make things too difficult-"

"You have spoken, how can I not agree? "Father" has been adapted into a drama, and it is just a creation of a change of team members when introduced to the United States.

My only worry is whether they can modify the essence of this work."

Listening to Lin Chaoyang's words, Li Tuo felt warm in his heart.

"I can't guarantee this. Why don't George come over and talk to you?"

"Okay, let him come over.

The next day, Nas took George to Xiaoliubukou Hutong.

"How is it? I've been having fun these days, right?"

Lin Chaoyang's face was soft and he had a faint smile, and he looked like an elder.

"It's great. I've been to the United States for so many years. Although I've gotten used to it, I still feel friendly when I return to China and I don't want to leave."

"Then your dad is so happy, but you young people have their own careers after all."

Seeing that Lin Chaoyang took the initiative to throw out the conversation, Nas immediately answered.

"Uncle Lin, George loved this drama after watching "Father" that day, but there were still some things he didn't understand.

I borrowed the script from my dad and translated it for him. He was deeply moved by this story and really hoped to bring this drama to the United States——”

Speaking of this, she secretly glanced at her fiancé before saying:

"You also know that George is now responsible for tours in the company, and he has a lot of time to travel around the world every year.

But in fact, his interest is not in this. He prefers to participate in the production of stage plays than being responsible for performances, and has always hoped to be transferred to the company's content development and production department.

You are very famous in the United States. After he told their boss about this, his boss promised him that he could transfer him to the content department to be responsible for the production of this drama."

Listening to Nas's words, Lin Chaoyang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that a girl was extroverted.

"As a producer?" he asked.

"It's the script development manager."

"oh."

There is no difference in rank between script development manager and tour manager, it just crosses departments.

"Since your dad spoke, I will definitely give this face--"

"Thank you, Uncle Lin." Although my father gave me a brief explanation when he came, Nas could not help but feel happy when he heard this and solemnly thanked Lin Chaoyang.

Lin Chaoyang waved his hand and continued, "I am very happy to introduce "Father" to the United States and let more viewers see this drama. But there are some things that need to be made in advance."

"I understand, I understand." Nass gently grabbed George's arm and signaled that it would be his business next.

Lin Chaoyang only made one request to George, that is, adapting the script must be recognized by him.

If an ordinary writer makes this request, the producer may not even ignore it.

But Lin Chaoyang is different. His reputation in the United States is no less than that of those well-known contemporary writers. His film adaptations have been successful many times and are very influential among American readers and audiences.

Therefore, George maintained the greatest respect for Lin Chaoyang and accepted all the requests he made.

"Okay, then that's it. You can hold this business card and just talk to this person about the specific introduction matters.

"

After talking about the matter, Nas repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Lin Chaoyang and planned to leave with George.

"Not busy, just have a meal before leaving.

Lin Chaoyang kept the two of them for dinner, chatted about family matters during the meal, and waited until they left after lunch.

Two more days later, Li Tuo came to Lin Chaoyang to express his gratitude.

He knew that Lin Chaoyang's works never had to worry about introduction and adaptation. If it weren't for his own sake, Lin Chaoyang wouldn't have agreed to this matter.

After stopping Li Tuo's words of thanks, Lin Chaoyang said, "Don't say these words. Just give me two extra bags of wedding candy when I get married."

"You must be indispensable." Li Tuo said happily.

After seeing Li Tuo away, it was fine in the afternoon. Lin Chaoyang saw that the weather was good, so he said to Tao Yushu: "Let's push mom out for a walk."

"Okay. Why don't you go to Gongjian Hutong? Mom hasn't been there once."

The renovation of the yard of Gongjian Hutong has been underway for almost two months. Tao’s mother has only seen the yard in the photos taken by Tao Xiwu with a camera.

The main reason is that she has a pelvic fracture and has not even been able to sit for two months and has been in bed for a long time.

The day before yesterday, I went to the hospital to check the healing condition and confirmed that there was no tenderness, and I just got into a wheelchair.

After lying in bed for two months, although Tao's mother had meticulous care from her family, she had already had enough of this kind of life. When she heard that she was going out, she was as happy as a child.

Xiaoliubukou Hutong is said to be close to Gongjian Hutong, but it is still a bit far away. Especially Tao’s mother is still a warder and can’t afford to go to trouble.

The few people took the car to the intersection of Jingshan Houjie, and then they pushed Tao's mother to walk to the alley.

With Lin Erchun's arrangement, the renovation of Gongjian Hutong yard was very fast. The renovation was not a repair, and the yard was very active.

The original coal shed and earthquake-resistant shed in the courtyard were all demolished, restoring the earliest appearance of the courtyard. Maintaining the worst-case east wing room was almost equivalent to being demolished and rebuilt.

Of course, the biggest change is the split and reduction of the entire courtyard space.

For example, the 2*2m space on both sides of the east and west wing rooms is planned into two outdoor spaces, which not only increases the opening and closing level of the courtyard, but also improves the lighting conditions of the wing rooms.

Although the available building area is reduced, it increases practicality and is more suitable for the living needs of modern life.

Public facilities such as living room, kitchen, dining room, independent bathroom and other public facilities have also been re-planned. After completion, the courtyard still follows the etiquette order of the courtyard from the outside, but the interior is completely modern-style architecture.

"Your main room has a semi-outdoor porch, which is a bit different from the veranda. It is a transitional space.

You will know after the repair is done."

"There are also windows. The windows here should be replaced with large floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The pavilions are tall and cool, and the windows are empty; they can accommodate a thousand acres of vast oceans and bring about the magnificence of the four seasons. In the future, you can sit in front of the window and see the four seasons of the courtyard."

While pushing her mother, Tao Yushu told her about the future transformation effect of the courtyard.

In her mouth, after the renovation was completed, this small courtyard seemed to be a paradise.

This is not Tao Yushu comforting her mother. She personally checked the planning and design of the courtyard, and she attached great importance to her parents' retirement place.

After wandering around the yard for a long time, Tao's mother was in a very good mood.

I told Tao Yushu about her childhood. The Du family produced two Jinshi in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, and kept the family rich for nearly a hundred years.

Tao's mother was from a good family when she was young. The size of the house she lived in was similar to that of Xiaoliubukou Hutong. There were two slaves who specialized in serving her, but everything was different after the fall of Peking.

A few years later, Tao's mother married Tao's father and moved into Yanyuan.

"It's much more convenient and comfortable to live in Siheyuan now than before." Tao's mother sighed and asked again, "How much does it cost to get all down?"

"It's not much money. Besides, I've made so much money, it's just for spending it."

Seeing that Tao Yushu didn't tell the truth, Tao's mother knew that the cost would definitely be inevitable.

She secretly asked Lin Chaoyang, "It must be 1 million, right?"

Lin Chaoyang nodded, "Absolutely."

In fact, it is almost the same if you multiply this number by 3. It is enough to buy two more courtyard houses in a slightly lower location.

As the few people were talking, sister-in-law Zhao Li walked into the yard gate.

During this period, she was busy with the store affairs, and from time to time she had to come over to supervise the supervisor.

"Where is the eldest brother?" Tao Yushu asked.
