Chapter 12 Pseudonyms
"It's not fake, is it? Now it's really a writer?" As soon as the ridicule of "Writer Chen" and "Writer Chen" was returned, people received letters from the magazine, and some people couldn't hold back their faces.
"Maybe it's the magazine he ordered himself, and it happened that it was sent today, and receiving the magazine doesn't mean that he will publish an article, right?" someone muttered unwillingly, especially when he saw the light in the eyes of those girls, his dissatisfaction with Chen Yu'an was even more serious.
"It's not the time when Sprout magazine is published every month. This magazine was very popular in 2000, especially among high school students, there were girls in the class who bought it every time, she stretched her neck to take a look, at this time Chen Yuan had opened the envelope, revealing the cover of the magazine, "Oh, I have bought it in the past few months, I have never seen this cover, it must be new, and the newsstand will not arrive until next week." ”
"What kind of magazine is Sprout?" asked her tablemate in a whisper, she studied in the countryside in junior high school, and there was not even a bookstore in the town, so naturally she had no chance to contact this kind of magazine.
"You haven't seen "Sprout"? Do Han Han know about "Triple Gate"? Have you heard of "Triple Gate"? Don't you know?" Seeing the table shake her head again and again, Chen Qian was a little out of temper, "Then the New Concept Essay Contest should always know, right? The New Concept Essay Contest is sponsored by "Sprout" magazine. ”
"I've heard of that. Now Li Dongmei finally nodded, she had heard the Chinese teacher talk about the New Concept Essay Contest.
In 1998, "Sprout" united seven famous universities in China, including Peking University, Fudan University, East China Normal University, Nanjing University, Nankai University, Shandong University, and Xiamen University, to call for the "rational model" of secondary education, and the National New Concept Essay Contest came into being.
The competition hires domestic first-class writers, editors and humanities scholars as judges, except for the preliminary competition works required to be within 5,000 words, and the contestants are under 30 years old, there is no registration fee, no restrictions; The winners of the preliminary round will participate in the semi-finals, and the first and second prizes and the list of finalists will be determined.
In March 1999, the first New Concept Essay Contest was a complete success. Seven first-prize winners were fortunate enough to be admitted to the co-sponsored universities, and for the first time since the resumption of the college entrance examination in Chinese mainland, they were given the opportunity to further their studies because of the awards in the essay competition.
Up to now, the New Concept Essay Contest has been held twice, and has successfully created Han Han, a controversial newcomer in the literary world.
In 1999, Han Han, who was in his first year of high school, passed the preliminary round of the first National New Concept Essay Contest with "Seeking Treatment" and "Bookstore", and won the first prize of the first National New Concept Essay Contest with the article "Peeping People in the Cup";
This year, his novel "Triple Gate" was published and quickly became the best-selling literary work in China in the past two decades, and Han Han has also become the idol of countless teenagers.
Chen Qian once had such a dream, but what she wrote was quite different from the works published in the magazine, so she was embarrassed to submit it, and she never thought that Chen Yu'an had successfully published an article on it.
"I'll take a look, I'll take a look, Chen Yu'an, what article have you written?" As soon as Chen Yu'an took out the magazine, someone grabbed it, wanting to have a sneak peek.
Quickly flipped to the table of contents, first looked at the author behind the title of the article, counted from the first to the last, and did not find Chen Yu'an's name, "Isn't it?
"Oh, this article, "In Those Years, We Misread Together", it should be this one, right? Hey, why is the author's name written Yang Weili?" Looking at the article table of contents again, I found an article that was suspected to be Chen Yu'an's work, but the author's name was different.
"Open it and take a look. Quickly flipped to the text, and when I looked at the content, it was indeed the exam essay that Chen Yu'an read in the last class, and it seemed almost word-for-word.
"What's going on?" the big guy was a little stunned, but the people who had laughed at Chen Yu'an just now became excited, "Needless to say, Chen Yu'an must have seen this article from somewhere else, and then copied it directly during the exam?"
They took this as evidence of Chen Yu'an's plagiarism, "I'll just say, how could he write such a terrible article? It turned out to be plagiarized?" Just now they also denounced this article as useless, and now in order to hit Chen Yu'an, they changed their words and said that they are awesome, and they are also ashamed of having such a thick skin.
"It can't be copied, right? Let's not say that this article hadn't been published at that time, and he couldn't copy it if he wanted to, so he said that it was really copied, and it couldn't be bad at every word, right?" Chen Qian squeezed in, took the magazine and scanned it.
"Who knows, maybe he just brought this article into the exam room, and this time the exam invigilation was not strict. No one could convince anyone after making a lot of noise, and the eyes of the big guys fell on Chen Yu'an again.
"Yu An, tell the big guys, what's going on? Ji Ming poked Chen Yu'an's arm and said, he was very unhappy when he first opened the envelope, but now he was happy, and he wished that Chen Yu'an would lose face.
"What's there to say, it's my article?" said Chen Yu'an with a shrug.
This action angered the few people who had just started to coax, "Yo, you still have to be shameless, author: Yang Weili, it is clearly written on it!"
"Hey, there's no culture, right?" Chen Yu'an looked at the other party sympathetically, "Have you heard of the pen name? Lu Xun's original name is Zhou Shuren, do you know? Mao Dun's original name is Shen Dehong, have you heard of it? Lao She's real name is Shu Qingchun, these are all to be tested in the language exam? Oh, even if you don't know any of this, Jin Yong's name is actually Zha Liangyong, and Gu Long's name is Xiong Yaohua, you should always know it, right?"
After speaking, Chen Yu'an took out a piece of paper from the envelope again, only to see that it was written:
Chen Yu'an
