Chapter Twenty-Seven: Life Is Fragmentary
From leaving the isolation ward to the eve of the college entrance examination, the days were ordinary and usual, step by step, Xu Tingsheng occasionally thought that rebirth was nothing earth-shattering, a little boring.
But life is piecemeal.
SARS is gradually subsiding down, and everything is getting better.
Xu Tingsheng took the 6th grade exam in the second model, because of the progress in mathematics, thanks to Wu Yuewei. Xu's father and mother are smiling every day because of Xu Tingsheng's progress, which is the most important thing.
Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng are still improving, and Fu Cheng finally entered the top 50.
The relationship between Xu Tingsheng and Wu Yuewei has returned to its previous state, and so does Yao Jing, occasionally having a meal together and occasionally saying a few words.
Apple still often comes to ask questions and show her charm, she will bite her lip and look at Xu Tingsheng with autumn water in her eyes, and she will speak in a voice with a heavy gasp, in this era and her age, she is simply a demon, and it will become a disaster in ancient times.
Huang Yaming said, "This can't be carried at all."
Xu Tingsheng's resistance is getting better day by day, he regards this as an interesting game, which can add a little charm and color to the dull life, he thinks it is very good.
Sometimes he would say, "Apple, how good is it for you to take the test as a model, a flight attendant, etc., the score requirements are low, and the job is good." ”
Apple will say, "Are you complimenting me on my figure? Better yet, you haven't seen it......"
Xu Tingsheng was defeated.
There are two things before the college entrance examination, one is a physical examination, and the other is to take pictures.
Legend has it that you have to stand in a row and strip naked, but you can have a pair of underwear left.
The situation was a little more complicated on the day of the photoshoot.
On the day of taking pictures in his previous life, Apple took the initiative to jump on the back seat of Xu Tingsheng's bicycle, and on the way to take pictures, he had to go through a bumpy downhill slope.
At that time, Xu Tingsheng was at a loss.
Apple stuck to his ear and said, "Are you going to my house tonight? ”
That day, Xu Tingsheng walked around the alley where Apple said her house was located for two hours before gritting his teeth and turning his head to go home.
And this time?
Xu Tingsheng, Huang Yaming, and Fu Cheng rode out of the school gate, and Apple said: "Xu Tingsheng, I've been waiting for a long time." ”
“……”
Sure enough, it's still like that.
Apple jumped into the car, and before going downhill, Xu Tingsheng said: "Be careful, the downhill road below will be a little bumpy." ”
Apple tightened the hand that was already around Xu Tingsheng's waist and leaned his head up.
is different from her previous life, this time she said one more word, she said: "Xu Tingsheng, do you see that I am seducing you?"
Xu Tingsheng was stunned and said with a smile: "Isn't it better to tacitly tacit this kind of thing?...... You can stand with me later, but I'm going to tell you, it's useless, you really ...... It really doesn't have to be sacrificed like that. ”
Apple said, "So you can see it, and you know what I'm thinking, is that really useless?" ”
Xu Tingsheng said: "It's really useless. ”
Apple said, "Leave it alone, I'm going to continue to seduce you anyway." ”
She said this as the bike was bouncing down a bumpy downhill road when Apple leaned in,...... "Is it big?"
Xu Tingsheng said with a bitter face: "Apple, don't make trouble, what else do you ask you to say." ”
Apple said, "No, I'll seduce you." ”
Xu Tingsheng said: "My family is very poor. ”
Apple said, "People like you can't be poor in the future, and I really like you a little bit." ”
Fortunately, after that downhill journey, he soon arrived at the destination, Xu Tingsheng walked in with Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng, who were waiting for him at the door, followed by Apple,......
When queuing, the eyes that looked at Xu Tingsheng's side began to become more and more, and for Apple, who was standing with the three of them, some people angrily whispered sarcasm, and some people disdained, of course, she didn't care about these.
Huang Yaming went to Tan Qingling's side, and other classmates stood up, Xu Tingsheng didn't care, he didn't refuse.
After taking the photo, Xu Tingsheng, Huang Yaming, and Fu Cheng hid in the corner and smoked a cigarette, chatted for a while, and when they came out, most of them had already left, and the three of them came to the carport, Apple was still standing there, and saw Xu Tingsheng coming over and waving his hand lively, and said coquettishly: "Just come, wait until my legs are sore." ”
The long legs that only reach the thigh position are straight and snow-white, and Apple lifts it up and shakes it a few times and puts it down, which makes people dizzy.
In her previous life, Xu Tingsheng remembered that she left by herself after taking photos.
This time, Apple jumped on the back seat of Xu Tingsheng's bicycle, hugged his waist and said, "You have to take me home today." ”
Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng were very unrighteous and did not wait for Xu Tingsheng.
Xu Tingsheng wiped his sweat, this is a big test.
When he came to the alley where Apple's house was located, Xu Tingsheng stopped the car, and Apple said, "Do you want to go to my house to play?...... My parents are not in Libei, and I am alone. ”
After speaking, she bit her lip and looked at Xu Tingsheng.
Xu Tingsheng struggled and said, "My family is in the countryside, so I'm in a hurry to go back to eat." ”
Apple smiled like a fox and said, "It doesn't seem that you don't understand anything, are you?"
After speaking, she pulled Xu Tingsheng up and walked into the stairs of a building next to her, in the dark corner, Apple gasped and approached Xu Tingsheng's ear, and spoke in a similar whispering voice: "Haven't you been?"
Xu Tingsheng thought for a while and said, "Sort of." ”
Apple said, "Can't you look down on me?" or are you afraid?...... Or do you dislike me? ”
Xu Tingsheng said: "...... , really don't make a fuss, in fact, your college entrance examination sitting next to me may definitely be less than one percent, and it makes no sense for you to do this now. Well, I promise you, if you do sit next to me, I'll try to show you when it's safe to do so, and you won't have to do anything. ”
Apple said, "Well, but I told you I seduced you now because I liked you...... So?"
Xu Tingsheng said: "I have to go home. ”
Apple said, "But you don't seem to be able to walk." ”
Her hand pressed over, Xu Tingsheng's whole person tensed, and then she slowly squatted down, she did the whole squatting process very slowly, she kept raising her head, looking at Xu Tingsheng with both eyes, and a smile on the corner of her mouth.
This is not just a demon, no wonder he will marry a foreigner in the future.
"I'll go home first". Uncle Xu Tingsheng fled in the wilderness.
At the last moment, Xu Tingsheng still ran away, although it was difficult...... Hard.
Apple laughed almost breathlessly behind her, and she said, "Xu Tingsheng, you are so funny." ”
……
Fang Yunyao's paper was unexpectedly published quickly, and at Xu Tingsheng's repeated insistence, the first author signed Fang Yunyao's name, and he was signed as the second author.
The next day, Fang Yunyao suddenly came to Xu Tingsheng, and after asking if he knew that he didn't have a mobile phone, he asked for Fu Cheng's mobile phone number, and someone called to find Xu Tingsheng that afternoon.
The person who contacted Xu Tingsheng was a publisher, and they were not interested in the concept or anything, but they took a fancy to those examples of "knowledge point combing".
Xu Tingsheng knew that what they were looking for at first must be Fang Yunyao, and Fang Yunyao could not tell Xu Tingsheng about it, but she gave Xu Tingsheng the opportunity and withdrew herself.
In his previous life, Xu Tingsheng had been in contact with the work of education and publishing under several famous teachers, and understood the joints, so as soon as he opened his mouth, the other party was very surprised to find that this seemingly immature voice was actually an expert.
If the other party has this understanding and puts away the thoughts of the pit people, things will be easier to talk about.
The publisher's offer was $50,000 plus a 5% royalty, which in 2003 was not too low.
But Xu Tingsheng's offer is 350,000 yuan, and he doesn't need royalties.
The other party muttered a vague curse and hung up the phone directly.
Xu Tingsheng put down the phone and told Fu Cheng that remember to charge the phone when he goes back at night, and don't run out of power tomorrow.
Only those who have really been exposed to educational publishing know the huge profits, especially in the case of the national unified college entrance examination papers around 2003, the annual benefits brought by a popular teaching and auxiliary materials are unimaginable.
It undoubtedly kills the number one book on the bestseller list every year, and every year, there is no scum left.
If he really wants royalties, Xu Tingsheng may earn more in the long run, but he is now in a hurry to use the money, and he unintentionally got the opportunity to grab the first pot of gold, and Xu Tingsheng's large-scale self-selected supermarket plan that he had abandoned rekindled hope.
The price of 350,000 is indeed high, a bit outrageous, but Xu Tingsheng knows how valuable his set of materials is, it is ahead of the entire industry for a full decade, if it is not in a hurry to use money, if it is not for the future There are many ways to make money, Xu Tingsheng is even reluctant to sell it, and when he has the ability to operate by himself, this information and the brand of teaching and auxiliary materials established on its basis are not only a golden rooster that can lay eggs, it is a golden phoenix that can lay eggs.
In addition, since the publishing house will call so anxiously because of a paper by an unknown person, then they must not have the attitude of trying it out, don't doubt the vision of these real insiders, they are more reliable than many experts in terms of vision.
Xu Tingsheng is very sure that they have made up their minds and are determined to succeed.
The next day, Xu Tingsheng received a call from the publisher again.
The publishing house counteroffered 300,000 yuan, and the requirement was that Xu Tingsheng and Fang Yunyao should not sign and make it public, sign a confidentiality agreement, and then pay 300,000 yuan in two installments, one after Xu Tingsheng delivered half of the manuscript and passed the review, and the second one had to wait until it was officially released.
Xu Tingsheng accepted the price of 300,000, which was the counteroffer space he gave the other party, and he made two other requests:
The first is to sign Fang Yunyao, and it is possible to sign it at the end of several "famous teachers";
Second, the second manuscript fee is to be paid immediately after the manuscript is fully delivered.
In addition, Xu Tingsheng accepted it in its entirety, did not sign it, and signed a confidentiality agreement.
The matter is settled, Xu Tingsheng began to soak in the Internet café every night to type for a few hours, hundreds of thousands of words in his head, the hand speed that he has practiced for a long time, in fact, it does not take too much time, and when the college entrance examination is approaching, Xu Tingsheng also put two sums of money in his pocket.
Of course, there are also heavy dark circles under the eyes on the same load, except for a few insiders, everyone else is sighing: "No wonder people have made so much progress, they are really desperate." ”
The seats for the college entrance examination were announced, and Apple was really not in the same examination room as Xu Tingsheng, Fu Cheng was in the side by side with Xu Tingsheng, and Huang Yaming was in another examination room. In addition, Xu Tingsheng found that the math princess in the same class was still sitting in front of him.
Although Xu Tingsheng's mathematics has improved, it is still only at the upper middle level, and it cannot be compared with Huang Yaming, Fu Cheng, and some other masters.
On the eve of the college entrance examination, the students went home, went back to the dormitory, Xu Tingsheng, Huang Yaming, and Fu Cheng were sitting in the classroom smoking in the classroom this time, and the girl suddenly walked in and said, "Xu Tingsheng, mathematics...... I won't block it, you can watch mine if you can see it. ”
Xu Tingsheng remembered her mistake in the college entrance examination, and of course he couldn't copy her now, but ...... Favors, right?
After hesitating for a while, Xu Tingsheng said, "Then if you can see anything else, you can look at some of mine." ”
The girl hurriedly waved her hand: "No, I'm not here to exchange with you, I don't look at you." ”
Xu Tingsheng paused without reluctance, and hesitated and said: "I have a friend who is in graduate school who said that mathematics will be difficult this year, you should be mentally prepared, be serious and then put your mind in a good state." ”
After the girl left, Xu Tingsheng turned his head to Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng and said: This is the "college entrance examination." ”
"yes, maybe we won't be able to mix together in the future. ”
"So, whoever arrives first tomorrow morning will wait at the door for a while, the last battle of high school, let's go together. ”
