Stepping on the corridor on the second floor of this office building, Yang Weiping subconsciously looked left and right.

The hallway was cleaned and there was not a single figure in sight. There are only office signs hanging on the walls of two sliding doors.

The first room on the left is the office of the Hongqi Commune, and the door is hidden and not closed.

Yang Weiping walked over and saw through the door that there was a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a dark shirt, black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his hair was topped, sitting at his desk reading a newspaper on Erlang's lap.

After knocking lightly on the door twice, Yang Weiping asked rudely, "Is Director Zheng here?"

The middle-aged man turned his head to look at the door when he heard the sound, lifted down the glasses on the bridge of his nose and pulled them down, rolled his eyes and looked, "I am, what's the matter with you?"

"Director Zheng, can I come in?"

"Please come in. ”

"Thank you. Yang Weiping pushed the door in, calmly walked in front of Director Zheng, took out a cigarette, opened it and handed it to the other party, "Director Zheng, you smoke a cigarette first." ”

"Da Qianmen, it's a good smoke!" Director Zheng smiled and didn't say anything polite to Yang Weiping, so he took it casually, lit the match that Yang Weiping struck, and inhaled hard, "Young man, say, what is the matter with me?"

Yang Weiping also ordered one himself, and then naturally put the pack of big front door cigarettes in his hand, which only smoked two, on the desk.

"I am a knowledgeable youth in Shangling Village, Yang Weiping. Just now I wanted to buy some material paper in the supply and marketing cooperative, but the supply and marketing cooperatives only had a total of ten copies, and Aunt Zheng said that if she wanted to buy more, she had to go to the county printing factory to order a letter of introduction from the commune. So, Aunt Zheng asked me to come to you to help open a letter of introduction. Yang Weiping said directly without humility or arrogance.

"Ten materials are not enough for you to write?" Director Zheng put down the newspaper in his hand in surprise, looked at Yang Weiping and asked, "What materials are you planning to write?"

"It's not about writing materials, but about writing literary novels, essays, and so on. Yang Weiping sighed and said: "The spare time life of our educated youths is empty, and if we don't find something for ourselves to hobby, these days are too difficult." ”

"It's a good thing that young people have an interest in literature. Director Zheng was obviously more interested in this topic, and nodded approvingly: "I think when I was young, I also dreamed of being a writer, but the gap between reality and dreams is too big." It's easy to write, but it's not easy to want to publish and publish. The higher the hope, the greater the disappointment, in the process of creation, keep a normal heart, it is very good for your creative path. ”

Hearing what Director Zheng said, Yang Weiping's heart moved, could it be that the elder in front of him had the experience of publishing failure before? People who are qualified to be the director of the office are generally able to write and draw, or at least be able to write and speak.

Thinking of this, Yang Weiping followed the other party's words and said respectfully: "Director Zheng, thank you for your advice." I guess you've written and published a lot of great works before, right?"

"That's all old Huang Liro. Director Zheng seemed to be very willing to mention his past to others, and sighed with emotion: "I think back then, I also got the guidance of Mr. Guo Moruo and Mr. Ba Jin! I have written a lot of articles, and some have been published in the provincial newspaper. It's just that then the special period began, and I didn't dare to write anymore. I still have hundreds of novels at home that I have published and printed at my own expense, but the Xinhua Bookstore does not distribute them, so how can anyone buy works that are not famous! Except for giving them away, most of the books can only be kept and brought with me in the coffin in the future and buried in the loess. ”

This information was simply too unexpected for Yang Weiping. Could it be that writers of this era can also publish books at their own expense and underwrite their own books? If this is the case, then won't he also have the opportunity to put a large sum of money into his pocket next year?...,

"Director Zheng, do you mean that writers can publish books at their own expense?" Yang Weiping asked tentatively.

"As long as the political examination is qualified, the writer has confidence in the work he has created, and is willing to bear the risk of losing money in distribution, of course. Director Zheng nodded and replied: "Publishing houses also need to make a profit when they publish books, and they generally only undertake works by well-known writers. For those writers who are willing to publish books at their own expense, they will also be appropriately relaxed in terms of policies. However, Xiao Yang, there is no writer who publishes books at his own expense, and none of them have turned their old books for many years into a lot of waste paper that no one cares about, and they are kept at home to be bitten by insects and rats, and they have no return!"

Yang Weiping's right hand trembled slightly, and he brought the cigarette between his middle finger and index finger close to his mouth and took a big puff, this news was too important, and Yang Weiping couldn't help but be excited.

If Director Zheng's words are confirmed, then Yang Weiping only needs to find a way to buy a book number from any publishing house in the future, and then find a printing house to typeset and print it by himself, so that there is no need to worry that no one will buy the printed "New Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series"!

It's not just 10 percent royalties, it's possible to make at least 30 percent of the profits, or even more!

After chatting with Director Zheng about the topic of literary creation for about half an hour, Yang Weiping used the price of a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes in exchange for a letter of introduction issued to the Wuyi Printing Factory in Jinnan County, but also got an important information worth 10,000 gold.

As soon as he left the door of the commune compound, he saw He Guodong and Zhou Yuanchao sitting in the shade of a tree not far from the right side, each holding a cigarette, chatting in a low voice, and turning his head to the side of the commune compound from time to time to glance.

Seeing Yang Weiping trotting out of the courtyard with a beaming look, He Guodong threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, raised his foot and stepped on it twice, and said with a happy smile: "Wei Ping, this kid must have encountered something good, you see his mental energy, more exciting than eating meat during the New Year." ”

"Brother Guodong, Brother Yuanchao, why didn't you leave?" Yang Weiping's eyes were full of joy that could not be concealed, and he asked aloud with a smile.

"Of course, I'm waiting for you kid to come back. Zhou Yuanchao replied loudly: "The letter of introduction has been opened?"

"Well, it's open, Director Zheng in the office is very talkative. Yang Weiping nodded happily, "When the production tasks in the team are not so tight, I will take time to go to the county seat." ”

The three brothers didn't stay at the gate of the commune for long, pushed the wheelbarrow in the direction of Shangling Village, and walked for about ten minutes, He Guodong asked in a more serious tone: "Tell me, where did you get so much money to buy these things?"

"This is a consolation money from the state to my father and mother. Yang Weiping replied with a slightly gloomy expression: "A total of 1,700 yuan." I never planned to use the money to keep it as a memento, so I never mentioned it to you. Brother Guodong, Brother Yuanchao, I hope you can forgive me for hiding it from you in this matter. ”

"It turned out to be Uncle Yang and Aunt Liu's provocation money, so it's no wonder. He Guodong suddenly muttered to himself, and then looked at Yang Weiping with a sincere face and said, "I'm sorry, Weiping, I shouldn't have mentioned your sadness." ”

"It's fine. Yang Weiping wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and said with a forced smile: "My father and my mother have done their best for the cause of China's national defense, and they have been born great and died gloriously! I have always been proud and proud to have such a father and mother. ”

"Wei Ping, this is the only inheritance left to you by your father and your mother, you shouldn't spend it casually!" Zhou Yuanchao said with a solemn face: "Now it has not reached the point where you have to use money, and you are not allowed to be so extravagant in the future!"

"Don't worry, Brother Yuanchao, Brother Guodong, I know it in my heart. Yang Weiping said earnestly: "I have all planned and planned, and I will use the money left by my parents to achieve a grand goal of great significance to us personally, our country, and our nation! I am convinced that my father's and my mother's souls in heaven will definitely support me! Bless me!"

"What kind of plan?" He Guodong asked with a star.

"Brother Guodong, you said that if the country resumes the college entrance examination next year, for those intellectual young people across the country who want to realize their college dreams, what is the most lacking before taking the college entrance examination?" Yang Weiping looked at He Guodong mysteriously, and did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Of course it's a review of materials!" He Guodong hadn't answered, and Zhou Yuanchao replied without thinking about it.

"Hmm!" He Guodong also nodded and said: "What he said about aiding the DPRK is right, this ten-year campaign has kept our generation away from school and away from the classroom for a full decade, once the central government really decides to announce the resumption of the college entrance examination, what we need most urgently to solve is to do everything possible to get a set of systematic review syllabuses and book materials." ”

"Brother Guodong, Brother Yuanchao, you should all know that my math, physics and chemistry grades have always been very good. Yang Weiping smiled confidently: "I not only have a set of "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" published in 1963 in my box, but also many books related to advanced mathematics, advanced physics and advanced chemistry left by my parents.

I plan to spend one year compiling a set of "New Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" based on that set of "Self-study Books on Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry", plus some of my self-study experience and experience. The content of this series of books, from shallow to deep, can make anyone who is literate, no matter whether he was good at mathematics, physics and chemistry before, as long as he reads this series of books with his heart, he can master all the mathematics, physics and chemistry knowledge below the university step by step, and calmly face the college entrance examination!"

"Fuck! Wei Ping, your idea is simply too good!" Zhou Yuanchao clenched his right hand and slapped it heavily on his left palm, and said excitedly: "If you can really make such a set of "New Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" before the college entrance examination, the educated youth of the whole country will thank you from the bottom of their hearts! You are their timely rain!"

"Wei Ping, are you really sure that this series of books will be compiled?" He Guodong also had an unconcealable look of joy in his eyes, and asked suspiciously.

"Of course!" Yang Weiping nodded categorically and replied: "If I am not sure, how dare I casually use the money left by my parents." In my plan, the set of "New Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" compiled by me can become the standard textbook for primary and secondary schools in my country after the end of the ten years of turmoil!

This is because the thirst for knowledge will be unprecedented! I want to set off a nationwide upsurge of study of 'studying for the rise of the country and the nation,' and I want to make the people of the country deeply aware that knowledge is the productive force, and science and technology are the primary productive forces! Studying hard and studying hard can not only change the fate of individuals, but also change the destiny of our entire country and nation!"
