Chapter 257: There's a topic
The fireworks display at Jinling University lasted for more than half an hour, and to be honest, Zhuang Yan was already aesthetically tired after watching it for less than ten minutes.
turned his head to look at any lotus beside him, but he still watched it with relish.
Zhuang Yan shook his head, he really couldn't understand where these fireworks could see the difference. In the first ten minutes, Zhuang Yan felt that he had watched all kinds of fireworks, whether they were red, white, yellow, blue, fluffy or straight into the sky, and in the end, they were just repeating the previous tricks.
It wasn't until the last fireworks were extinguished in the air and scattered in the Xuannu Lake that Ren Lian lowered her head. Zhuang Yan looked at her with some concern, for fear that she would have problems with her cervical spine because of raising her head for a long time.
"Is it pretty?" Zhuang Yan asked.
Ren Lian nodded, "Of course it's good-looking." ”
"Okay, after watching the fireworks, let's go to dinner, no matter how beautiful the fireworks are, they can't make people hungry. Zhuang Yan said with a smile.
"Okay, what are we going to eat?" Ren Lian asked.
Zhuang Yan thought about it, but he didn't come up with anything delicious, and after a while, he said, "Or, let's eat it—duck blood vermicelli?"
"Okay. Ren Lian agreed.
Although Ren Lian agreed happily, Zhuang Yan was still a little embarrassed, as a Jinling person, he didn't know anything else delicious except duck blood fans.
In fact, there are not many special delicacies in Jinling, just like the snacks on the Lion Bridge, most of them come from other places, and the more famous specialty restaurants in the city are also from other places.
Jinling people like to eat duck, all the places on the duck have been thoroughly studied by Jinling people, all kinds of sauce duck, roast duck, salted duck everything. Locals love to eat and love to cook.
But when it comes to duck, in fact, people still think of Yanjing roast duck, and then it is possible to think of duck blood vermicelli and the like.
Before leaving, I wanted to say hello to Chen Qigong, but then I thought that I didn't know where Chen Qigong's office was.
Chen Qigong didn't come up in the middle, maybe he thought that Zhuang Yan and Ren Lian were a couple, so he didn't come up to bother.
"Let's go, next time I have the fate to see him, thank him again. Zhuang Yan said with a smile.
When I walked downstairs, the previous security guard was still at the door, and when he saw them coming down, he greeted them.
It took a long way from Jinling University to the duck blood vermicelli shop, but the two of them were not in a hurry, so they slowly chatted and swayed on the road.
In the afternoon of contact with Ren Lian, they were already familiar with each other, and Ren Lian gave Zhuang Yan the impression of a typical child from an intellectual family, who was well-read and courteous, and spoke softly, but could make people feel confident and self-esteem from the inside out.
The women of this world are definitely different as a whole compared to the previous life.
Because the times are changing too quickly, the impact of various foreign cultures has led to different women of all ages.
For example, women who are now fifty or sixty years old and older, when they were young, they were still feudal, and they were three from the four virtues from elementary school. The idea of male superiority and inferiority of women has long been deeply rooted, and even after so many years since the founding of the country, their thinking still cannot be changed.
In their eyes, women are subordinate to men, and typical women are virtuous if they are not talented.
In order to cut off the continuation of this feudal mentality, the state made it mandatory for students to attend full-time kindergartens at an early stage, instilling in them the idea of equality between men and women from the very beginning.
Therefore, women in the future have changed dramatically in their thinking, but some of those women in their thirties and forties will still be influenced by the older generation.
It wasn't until Ren Lian's generation that men and women truly achieved equal rights, with neither masculinity nor femininism, and everyone was able to respect each other while acknowledging the gap between men and women.
There will definitely be some bumps in the process of this kind of ideological education, just like at the beginning, when the state advocated equality between men and women, many people began to over-interpret and blindly demand that men and women be the same in everything.
At that time, there was an incident in which a female official in a state department proposed a reform of the country's construction sector because the ratio of men to women in this department was too large and there was serious gender discrimination.
It sounds funny now, but at the time, there were many women who followed behind and waved their flags in support of the female official's proposal.
The equality of men and women does not mean that men and women are the same, first of all, we must recognize each other's differences, and only by recognizing this difference can we be equal.
Fortunately, this situation is basically no longer in this situation, and the human rights and men's rights and women's rights in this world have surpassed the world where Zhuang Yan lives.
Among them, Zhuang Yan believes that the biggest progress, even he can't do by himself, is that in this world of China, many families do not have their father's surname, but their mother's surname.
According to the survey, this proportion has reached more than 30 percent, which is a bit far from half, but it is already an incredible progress.
In all fairness, Zhuang Yan himself can't let his children take his wife's surname in the future, unless he gives birth to several, and pick one out with his mother's surname.
……
After having dinner with Ren Lian, Zhuang Yan sent her back to the hotel to say goodbye.
Before leaving, Ren Lian was a little eager to say something, but in the end she only said "goodbye".
After Zhuang Yan returned to his residence, Wang Lijian's phone called and told him about the sales of "The Old Man and the Sea" today. The specific sales data has not yet come out, but according to the feedback from major bookstores, most of the bookstores have sold almost all the books, and it is initially estimated that today's sales should be between 500,000 and 600,000, which is already ironclad to exceed the first day sales of "Alive" and become his new record.
What "The Catcher in the Rye" didn't do last time, was done by "The Old Man and the Sea". However, it can also be expected in advance, because Zhuang Yan's current fame is not the same as before.
Among the more than 500,000 yuan, I am afraid that a large part of it is because of the three words of the Pu Songling Award, no matter what, the Pu Songling Award, as the four awards, is still a real golden signboard.
After listening to Wang Lijian's congratulations, as soon as he hung up the phone, Yao Qian's phone called.
Looking at the caller ID, Zhuang Yan smiled unconsciously, he didn't receive a single call in the afternoon with Ren Lian, and when he came back, the calls kept coming, which was really a bit strange.
"Oh, are you calling to talk about sales?" Zhuang Yan thought that Yao Qian was also calling because of sales.
But Yao Qian said: "The sales have not come out yet, and I won't know until tomorrow, I called you because I wanted you to take a look on the Internet, and you have become a topic again." ”
