Chapter Twenty-Three: The Soloists
"Here, a toast to the victory of 168!"
At one o'clock in the morning, at the barbecue stall in the backstreet of Xize Longling, Ma Rulong was holding a beer with a heroic spirit. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zhu Cong put down the wine glass and said: "It's still Gu Bei who has brains, and he doesn't make Liao Jie lose money and apologize, I really regret not following the past, I heard others say that Liao Jie is more bullish and more bullish, heh! ”
"Gu Bei, let's have a drink. Shen Cheng took a glass of beer: "Thank you for today's matter." ”
Gu Bei covered the wine glass: "I won't drink this glass of wine." ”
"It's just that a brother in the dormitory is too unconventional to say such polite words. Ma Rulong fanned the flames: "Shen Cheng, you punish yourself." ”
"Good. Shen Cheng picked up the beer and blew the bottle.
Tonight, Gu Bei helped him find the field, not only asked Liao Jie to apologize, but also gave him all the thousand yuan, Shen Cheng was very moved, and he couldn't say words of gratitude, hypocritical, he could only drink, the wine was an old Yanjing for one dollar, dark green, and he felt heavy in his hand, just like the group of people around him, they were partners who could catch when they were injured.
"Master Ma, you're not kind, what did you retreat from when you were going to fight just now?" Jin Shengze took a sip of beer and settled the account after the autumn.
"You don't understand this, I'm here for Gu Bei, there are many juniors in that group, and when the time comes, Gu Bei will be attacked by the enemy, and you will carry it in front, so I will be his solid backing. "Ma Rulong is born with an ability to beautify himself, and any humiliating move will be transformed into a matter of glory to his ancestors.
"Don't be. Zhu Cong picked up Lao Yanjing and pushed it to Ma Rulong's table: "Come on, come on, Ma Ye, punish yourself with three bottles." ”
"Yes, drink it, who is Ma Ye afraid of. Ma Rulong knew that his previous performance was a bit cowardly, and it was necessary to save his image, otherwise he would have to laugh at them for four years.
"Gu Bei, what is that recording you are talking about?" Jin Shengze and Gu Bei touched their cups, he knew that Liao Jie would lose money and apologize, it all depended on Gu Bei's recording, and when Gu Bei and Liao Jie clashed, the two of them kept revolving around whether Gu Bei had a recording or not.
Kim Sung-taek was curious about what secrets were hidden in the recording.
Gu Bei looked at Jin Shengze with a smile and didn't speak.
Jin Shengze immediately remembered Gu Bei's promise that Liao Jie would not leak the recording, and he picked up his wine glass to change the topic: "Come on, come on, everyone drink." ”
The people in the 168 dormitory drank until two o'clock in the morning, and Kim Sung-taek settled the account.
Shen Cheng wanted to give the money to Jin Shengze, but Jin Shengze didn't accept it.

The next afternoon.
Gu Bei went to Xue Zhongru's office.
The office is forty square meters, the decoration is simple and clean, the brown-red desk and bookcase, the bookcase is full of books, with a smell of books, Xue Zhongru is flipping through the documents in front of the desk, the old man is wearing reading glasses and looks meticulous, until Gu Bei knocked on the door, he raised his head, and then pointed to the sofa under the wall: "Sit, there is a teacup over there, I want to drink it myself." ”
"I'm not thirsty. Gu Bei was inexplicably a little restrained in the face of this short old man.
Xue Zhongru took off his reading glasses: "Is "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" written well?"
Gu Bei smiled: ""Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is a popular novel, I didn't expect the dean to like it. ”
Xue Zhongru took a sip of strong tea: "I often read Jin Yong when I knew about it, Jin Yong's book was a banned book at that time, and it was really not easy to read it, so I tried every means to find my old classmates to get pirated books to read, "Dragon Babu", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", after doing farm work, I lay on the haystack to watch, there was no light at night, I shrank in the quilt with a flashlight to read, and I watched it all night, it was really a waste of sleep and food, this "Ghost Blows the Lamp" Let me find the feeling of that year, although it is a story of tomb robbery, it is full of family and country feelings and chivalrous hearts, and the background is in the 70s when the educated youth went to the mountains and went to the countryside, and I feel nostalgic. ”
When Xue Zhongru said this, the topic changed: "By the way, how do you know so much about the military culture and the history of that period of educated youth? It also involves the counterattack in Vietnam." ”
Gu Bei said that this is thanks to my father, he was a soldier, I have heard him talk about things in the army since I was a child, I want to write a novel based on the story he said, and the prototype of Hu Bayi is my father.
Xue Zhongru nodded: "Your Hu Bayi is brave and strategic, calm and calm, principled, will not be greedy for small gains, and will not be chaotic in times of danger, it seems that your father is very good." ”
Gu Bei said that it was, my dad was my only idol! Then, he handed a manuscript to Xue Zhongru: "Dean Xue, this is the preliminary idea of the revision of Xize Pioneer Magazine, you can take a look." ”
Xue Zhongru thought that this kid still remembered the editor-in-chief of "Xize Pioneer" magazine, sighed in his heart, picked up the manuscript and returned to the desk, wiped his reading glasses, put them on, and read them carefully.
For a moment, Xue thought that the manuscript was written by a senior magazine editor.
Xue Zhongru looked up at Gu Bei, his expression was naturally sitting on the sofa, Xue Zhongru took a sip of strong tea, and continued to read.
In the manuscript, Gu Bei put forward three important points:
1. The main audience of "Nishizawa Pioneer" magazine is students, and it is obviously not popular with the market to focus on traditional literature, so it is proposed to adjust the style of the magazine and focus on the route of popular youth literature.
2: The name of "Nishizawa Pioneer" magazine lacks popularity, and the geographical restrictions are too strong, so it is proposed to change the name to "Solo Singer".
Three: "Atlantis Pioneer" is a pure campus magazine, limited to financial and manpower issues, and it is also free to solicit articles, but also free to send to students, the quality is not good, the text and pictures are old-fashioned, can not be welcomed by students, forming a vicious circle, there is competition to develop, commercialization is the best choice.
Xue Zhongru put down his reading glasses and picked up the enamel jar, but found that there was no water, he got up and walked to the drinking fountain to fill it with tea, returned to the chair, blew off the hot air, and drank it one by one.
Gu Bei sat on the sofa, not in a hurry, waiting.
"I want you to be the editor-in-chief. Xue Zhongru put down the enamel jar.
Gu Bei nodded: "I know." ”
"But the editor-in-chief of "Atlantis Pioneer" magazine has been decided, a junior named Liao Jie, I'm sorry. As the editor-in-chief of "XZAWA Pioneer" magazine, he succumbed to the system, was constrained by the school party committee and the school youth league committee, and could not let the most suitable person sit in the most suitable position, and felt ashamed.
Hearing this bad news, Gu Bei was not discouraged.
There are many unfair things in this world, it's useless to complain, cursing the darkness can only show that you are a LOSER, people, you can only fulfill yourself, there is no why, this is the reality.
But Gu Bei will never succumb to reality!
Gu Bei looked at Xue Zhongru and said, "Dean, speaking of Liao Jie, I think of one thing. ”
Xue Zhongru asked, "What's the matter?"
Gu Bei said quietly: "Last night, Shen Cheng in our bedroom was beaten by Liao Jie. ”
Xue Zhongru raised his eyebrows: "Is the injury serious?"
Gu Beidao: "Last night, Shen Cheng went to Liao Jie's dormitory to recommend the study newspaper, Liao Jie beat Shen Cheng for no reason, and his jaw coughed up blood, and then I went to Liao Jie, and Liao Jie also lost money and apologized." ”
Xue Zhongru said solemnly: "This kind of bullying of new students is very bad, even if it is an apology, the school must make a punishment to set an example, otherwise every student will apologize for hitting someone, and there is no punishment, isn't it a mess." ”
Gu Bei smiled and said Dean, you are busy, I will leave first.
Xue Zhongru watched Gu Bei go out, thinking that this kid was really unusual.
