Zeng Wei started brainwashing work with his eldest sister Zeng Jiao, who was stunned, and said: "Be motivated! So that you can be admitted to a good university and find a good job." You don't want to be like your parents, digging in the ground with your face to the loess and your back to the sky all your life, right? Mom and Dad can't help it in this life, there are reasons for the times, and there are also their own reasons. But sister, you are different, how good your original grades are, you can be admitted to a good university. ”

In the end, Zeng Wei said earnestly: "Sister, you have to be motivated, you must know that after your grandfather dies, you are the pillar and hope of the family." For your own future, for your grandmother to live in peace, for your parents to not work so hard in the second half of their lives, and for the second sister and I to be ahead of the starting line of life, you must be motivated!"

Zeng Jiao said with a dark face: "Isn't the hope of our family you?

Zeng Wei said as a matter of course: "It has to be you! How old am I, only seven years old, even if I am a genius, you will never let me carry this family, right? You are different, you are already seventeen years old, you are an adult, and you are about to take the college entrance examination and become a pillar of the country!"

Zeng Yan was speechless and said, "Mao, what you said is so right, I am speechless......"

Zeng Wei listened to the eldest sister's words, which were very similar to a very classic Internet language in later generations, and immediately became happy, and said with a smile: "Then sister, you can give me a round of applause and a thumbs up." ”

Zeng Jiao was helpless, so she had to clap her hands a few times very insincerely.

Zeng Wei didn't care either, and said with a smile: "Sister, then I will put the hope of our family on you." Well, from now on, you go to read and review, this "Ancient Legends" will be handed over to me for safekeeping, and when you finish the college entrance examination, I will return it to you. ”

As he spoke, Zeng Wei snatched the book of "Ancient Legends" from Zeng Jiao's hand and flashed into the house.

………………

Looking at his younger brother's thin back, Zeng Jiao was a little stupid for a while.

Although his words seemed a little old-fashioned, he had to admit that it was a thunderclap to himself.

A memory of six years ago came to her mind.

That time, my aunt's cousin got married and invited my grandfather to help, but he accidentally caught a cold. His health was already poor, so he couldn't afford to get sick.

On the occasion of his death, my grandfather grabbed himself, who was still in the sixth grade, and said earnestly: "Girl, this family will depend on you in the future." Your parents have no culture, let alone vision, and it is good to ask for food and clothing for a lifetime, and the most likely thing is that this family will soon fail. You have to study more to give your family a good future. ”

Later, as my grandfather expected, my parents were not business materials, and less than a year after my grandfather's death, the family's business lost a lot, and even owed debts.

Because of my grandfather's entrustment, I began to study hard, and after graduating from junior high school, I was admitted to Gudan Middle School, the best high school in the city, and after entering high school, my grades have always remained in the top few of my grade.

But when did you start to fall, and your grades began to drop dramatically?

Zeng Jiao sighed, she really shouldn't be!

………………

Zeng Wei, who entered the house, didn't know that his words brought a great shock to the eldest sister Zeng Jiao, he looked at the book "Ancient Legends" in his hand, but he had an idea.

In the week since he was reborn, he has been trying to find a way to bring some change to this impoverished family. However, due to his age, he never thought of a feasible solution.

However, seeing the eldest sister reading the novel today, I thought of some memories of my previous life, which warned her. It's just that I don't know if these words will make the eldest sister wake up from now on, study hard, and have good results in next year's college entrance examination.

Zeng Wei knows very well that even if the eldest sister's grades have improved, if she can't be admitted to the public-funded students, that is, she plans to enroll students in a unified manner, but is admitted to self-financed students, then her family will not be able to support her college fees.

In her previous life, the eldest sister knew this, and her grades had slipped so much that it was even a problem to go to the junior college, so she chose to drop out after this semester. Then he worked at home for two years and got married.

Zeng Wei didn't know if his conversation with her eldest sister today would change the trajectory of her life, but the book "Ancient Legends" snatched from her hand had a solution to the problem of changing the family's economic situation that she was thinking about these days.

Of course, it's just possible.

Zeng Wei's idea is very simple, that is, to write a novel and then submit it. For example, the magazine "Ancient Legends" is a good channel.

………………

"Legend of the Ancients" is a very influential periodical magazine of this era. It was founded in July 1981, and by 1986, the circulation was as high as 2.78 million copies, the largest circulation of a literary journal in the country, and now the annual circulation has properly exceeded 3 million copies, with a circulation of more than 500,000 copies per issue.

That's a pretty impressive number.

The soul of the journal lies in the creative level and creative ability, which is always and everywhere reflected in the style, temperament and charm of the periodical, as a spiritual product based on the accumulation and dissemination of culture, the journal is different from the material product in terms of value composition.

Under the current conditions, the competition of modern periodicals is no longer a competition between one city and one pool, but a contest between new publishing concepts, unique business strategies, extensive information networks and profound cultural backgrounds. Among them, the profound cultural background formed by the journal in the long-term practice will play a decisive role.

In the early 80s of the 20th century, the inaugural issue of "Ancient Legends" triggered a boom in popular literature, and popular literature newspapers and periodicals sprung up in the land of China. When popular literary newspapers and periodicals rushed to the top, "Legends of the Ancient and Modern" took a calm attitude, stood at the height of being responsible to society, history, and the nation, and loudly put forward the slogan of "running popular literature with a serious attitude and reflecting serious social content in a popular form", "rejecting vulgarity, rejecting kitsch, and rejecting vulgarity" and successively launched "Jade Jiaolong", "Spring Snow Bottle", "The Legend of Wudang Mountain", "China's Three Major Villages", "Black Owl Red Face", and "Xiaoping Out of the Mountain" and other excellent works, which have touched tens of millions of readers with their high artistic qualities, and have also explored new ways for the innovation and development of popular literature.

………………

In the past, Zeng Wei was also a loyal fan of "Ancient Legends" and liked the legendary stories published on it. Especially after entering the 21st world, he watched "Ancient Legends: Martial Arts Edition" and "Ancient Legends: Fantasy Version", which only appeared after entering the 21st world.

Now, Zeng Wei can't do anything else because of his age, and it is too torturous for him, a person with adult memory, to concentrate on the curriculum of the third grade of primary school every day, or to play mud hide and seek with a group of teenage children.

However, it is completely fine to write a novel quietly and then submit it to a magazine, and you can even do it without knowing it.

Zeng Wei believes that with the vision and insight of his later generations, what he writes will definitely be able to attract readers of this era. After all, his biggest hobby is reading novels, and in his previous life, he started in junior high school and before he was reborn, he didn't know how many novels he had read. From "Journey to the West", "Romance of the Gods", "The Legend of Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" to martial arts written by Jin Daxia, Gu Long, Liang Yusheng and others, and then to later online novels with various styles, the number of words is definitely calculated in billions.

Although he can't remember all these novels, he knows the writing techniques in them and knows how to capture readers. Even some classic novels, the story synopsis and general plot, he still has a deep impression.

Zeng Wei felt that it was a good opportunity to quietly write novels and earn a little money while he was still young and there was no pressure on his studies. If you can find the right opportunity to encourage your parents to do something during this period, it is also okay.

Although parents lack a long-term vision of business, as executors, it is still okay to do some specific things. Five or six years ago, the main reason why my family's business failed was because there was a problem with the strategy. Now that I have the vision of my own reborn, this will not be the case when I come to business again.

Zeng Wei is very confident in this point. In his previous life, although he did not make any big careers, but his foundation was not bad, he graduated from a famous university, and stayed in a large national research unit and government department, it can be said that he has seen both pigs running and eating pork, maybe his foresight is not good, but now with foresight, it is not difficult to do this.

………………

However, in the end, when it came to writing something, Zeng Wei was worried again.

In his previous life, he had read a lot of novels, all kinds of categories, fantasy, Xianxia, urban, history and even military affairs, but Zeng Wei also knew that because of the different times, many themes that were smash hits in later generations are not suitable for today.

This is like doing business with products, products that can't keep up with the times will definitely not attract consumers and will be eliminated, but things that are too advanced are also difficult to be recognized by the market.

If nothing else, it's hard to get past the editing level. If you don't get the editor's approval, it's all over.

So, before you start writing, you need to know the preferences of the editors of the magazine.

Zeng Wei naturally didn't know the editor of the magazine "Ancient Legends", but this is not a problem, which can be known from the founding concept of this magazine.

"Legends of the Ancient Times" has always adhered to the purpose of "Chinese style, national style, public consciousness, and spirit of the times", and adhered to the style of "legendary but not bizarre, popular but not vulgar, popular but not low-level, interesting and beneficial".
