Chapter 180: Xiaohui's Writing Plan
Xiaohui's family took a break in the room, and when they returned to the living room on the first floor, dinner was ready. My sister's family, who came home from work, was also called by Tian Chuan to get to know Xiaohui's family. Tagawa got up and beckoned everyone to the restaurant, and sat a large table.
The dinner was sumptuous, with not only the products produced at the base, but also some of the rarer foods that Tagawa had stored in the cold storage, such as seafood, venison, hares, and the like. Liu Fenglan couldn't let go, but Xiaohui's younger brothers and sisters were very happy. A few of the little ones, including Vivi, weren't very interested in the rarer things, but they were very fond of prawns cooked in tomato sauce, red stuffed lamb with skin, and stewed rooster, and rushed to eat them all.
Liu Fenglan was a little embarrassed about the appearance of her children, but Xiaohui said: "Mom, we don't have to see Brother Tian Chuan's house outside, Brother Tian Chuan also likes us very much." ”
Tian's father opened a bottle of imperial style and drank it with his son and son-in-law. Tian's mother and sister accompanied Liu Fenglan to drink a little red wine, while Xiaohui and a group of children drank several fruit juice drinks, and everyone finished the dinner happily.
After dinner, Weiwei volunteered to take Xiaolan, Xiaofang and her little brother Xiaoming to the multimedia room on the third floor to watch a movie, and Tian's mother and Tian's father chatted with Liu Fenglan. Although she was a little nervous when she first arrived at the relatively unfamiliar environment of Tian's house, Liu Fenglan, like Tian's mother, was a very cheerful person, and soon became one with Tian's father and Tian's mother.
Tian Chuan took Xiao Hui to the study, and used English to communicate her learning situation during this period of time, after simple communication, Tian Chuan found that Xiao Hui's study was quite solid, probably she had found a way to get started, and her homework was very good. Xiaohui is already in the third year of junior high school this year, and he will take the high school entrance examination next summer. If you want to go to a few top-notch middle schools in Tsu City, there should be no problem.
Tagawa asked Megumi what she thought, and Megumi said, "I don't have any special ideas, just go to high school first, and then go to university." Anyway, I still can't be with you when I was in high school, and it doesn't matter what school I go to. ”
Tian Chuan suggested that Xiaohui apply for the No. 16 Middle School or the Zonglili Middle School in Jinshi, which had a much better teaching level than the county No. 1 Middle School below, and had better conditions to broaden her horizons. Xiaohui was a little hesitant and wanted to go back and discuss it with her father before deciding.
When the two of them talk alone, they still communicate in English according to the old/customary language. At this time, my sister knocked on the door and came to the study, and when she heard Tian Chuan and Xiao Hui talking in English, she asked, "Xiao Chuan, why do you and Xiao Hui still speak English, are there any secrets that others are afraid of hearing about it?"
Xiao Hui blushed all of a sudden, but Tian Chuan said with a completely indifferent look: "What is there to be afraid of people hearing." I'm helping her learn English, and when the two of us usually speak, we basically speak English. Besides, we speak English, can't we hide it from you? Jingyi and I usually speak English, haven't you noticed?"
The elder sister put the fruit bowl on the table, pulled Tian Chuan aside alone, and asked in a low voice, "Are you interested in Xiaohui?" I can warn you, she is still a child, you don't want to cause any trouble, and it will not be good for her parents to find the house when the time comes. ”
Tagawa said, "I've identified her since last year. Don't worry, I'm measured, I didn't do anything in the United States where I took her with me during the summer vacation, so what else do you have to worry about. I know she's still young, can't I wait for her to grow up?"
My sister was completely blinded and asked, "Didn't you take Xu Jingyi with you?"
Tian Chuan said: "Look down on your brother, I took the two of them with me." I've been well-behaved along the way, and I've taken good pictures with them. They all know my relationship with them, they don't have any opinions, what do you care?"
My sister was speechless and said to Tian Chuan: "You can do it yourself, don't be that kind of playboy, otherwise your parents won't be able to spare you." ”
Tian Chuan said: "I know, I'm not an abusive person, I'm serious about both of them, I don't know what will happen in the future, let it be." Don't tell your parents yet, I'll talk about it in the future. ”
My sister couldn't help him, so she didn't say anything more, told the two of them to eat fruit, and went out.
Although Xiaohui pretended not to pay attention to the Tagawa siblings just now, she still probably heard some of what they said. At this time, I saw my sister go out, and said to Tian Chuan: "Brother Tian Chuan, don't worry, wait for me to grow up." ”
Tian Chuan reached out and rubbed the top of Xiaohui's head, didn't dwell on this matter anymore, and told her about Michelle's coming tomorrow.
That night, when everyone had rested, Tagawa went out of the bedroom door and saw that the door of Xiaohui's room was open and the light was still on inside, so he pushed the door and walked in.
Xiaohui didn't sleep, she was on the computer, and she didn't know what she was writing. Seeing Tian Chuan come in, he smiled lightly and said, "I knew you would come over." When I first returned to China, it took me several days to get used to falling asleep alone, and I didn't dare to tell my parents. ”
Tian Chuan asked, "What are you writing about?" Do you usually read the Wanlixing website? Is there anything new to post?"
Xiaohui closed the computer and said: "I soak in the Wanlixing website every day when I have nothing to do, there are not many new articles in it, but the overall level is not bad, and some of the things I usually write are also posted, but I use a new pen name, you can't find me." ”
Tian Chuan asked, "Do you like this website? This is the first professional literature website in China, if you like it, how about I give it to you in two years?"
Xiao Hui couldn't believe it, and said in surprise: "How can this work? I don't know how to manage websites." Besides, I can't afford to raise such a website. ”
"It's just a little new and it's not popular and doesn't have much revenue, but I believe it will be self-sufficient in two years' time," Tagawa said. Now the website has a professional team to manage, if you have any good ideas and ideas, you can talk to me, let's work together to make this website bigger and stronger. ”
Xiaohui said with some hesitation: "If you send this website to me, will Sister Jingyi be unhappy?"
Tian Chuan said: "You little girl, you have a lot of thoughts. You don't have to worry about her, I also gave her a company, which is the Tianxin Mill pastry shop that has just started to become popular in Beijing, and she is now busy managing this company every day. ”
"The travelogues you wrote last time are very popular on the site and already have a readership. If you change your pen name casually, it will affect the number of readers of the new work, and this matter should be carefully considered. ”
"It's okay," Xiaohui was worried, "I'm writing some essays and essays now, which are different from the previous travelogues, and I guess the readers will be different." In addition, I don't want others to know that I wrote these things for the time being, and everyone knows that my original pen name is me, so I changed my pen name. ”
Tian Chuan actually didn't have any opinion on this, he suddenly thought that Zhan Ruoshui, the newly hired editor-in-chief of Wanlixing.com, asked him through general manager Zhao Juan, that a publishing house wanted to publish the physical book of Xiaohui's travelogues, but he didn't agree at that time, and then said to Xiaohui: "By the way, Xiaohui, a few days ago, a publishing house wanted to publish your travelogues in the United States, what do you have your own thoughts?"
Xiaohui was stunned, she didn't expect to publish a book at all, and she couldn't help but be a little undecided, so she said: "I don't know what to do, Brother Tagawa, you can help me decide." However, if you publish a book, you must make it beautiful. ”
Tagawa said: "My opinion is that the physical book will not be published for the time being. Your fame is not big enough, and if you publish a book now, you won't get too good a copyright share income. In addition, now because the fame is not big enough, there are not many readers, and the book will not sell too well, it is better to wait a year or two, the website is famous, and your own fame is also improved, and then consider publishing the book. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother. Xiaohui replied obediently.
Tian Chuan instructed Xiaohui again: "Although your travelogue is well written and has some fame, you are still young after all, you have just started writing, and you have not yet formed your own style. When you write in the future, don't always think about the style that readers liked in the past, or what kind of style you should take, but do what you want and be natural. As for the future style, that's in the future, so don't worry about it now, just write what you like. Don't force yourself to write anything, write some if you are inspired, and rest if you are not inspired, so that you can write something that truly belongs to you and write a masterpiece. ”
"Also, what you write in the future, it's best to show me first, some things may not be suitable for publication, or not suitable for publication for the time being, then wait for a while, sometimes you can't grasp these things yourself, I can give you some suggestions. ”
"In addition, sometimes you write some long-form works, or a series of works, such as the last travelogue, you have to consider the frequency of uploading and publishing on the website. Mastering the rhythm of uploading can effectively attract the attention of readers and gather more loyal readers for yourself. You'll also want to learn a lot from the editors of the site, or I can give you some advice. ”
After saying a few things about writing, Tagawa drove Megumi to take a bath. He knew that Xiaohui's family did not have the conditions to take a bath in winter. Each room in his house has a toilet with a shower, which is convenient for bathing.
Half an hour later, after taking a bath, Xiaohui came out wrapped in a bathrobe and saw that Tagawa had left the house. She changed into pajamas and called Tian Chuan on her mobile phone: "Brother Tian Chuan, come and sleep with me." Without waiting for Tagawa to answer, he hung up. Immediately, there was a sound of soft footsteps in the corridor, and Tian Chuan soon came to her room, first helped her dry her hair with a hair dryer, and then coaxed her to bed like a child, and took her hand to sleep with her, and then left her room lightly and returned to her room.
