The afternoon sun shines brightly in the office. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The thriving gentleman's orchid swayed its branches and leaves, hiding in the north corner of the desk. In the shadow of the room, there are two thermoses, one red and one green, and a basin stand and basin.

In the era when there was no independent water supply in the office, there were clean basins and thermoses, and with manual water supply and discharge, it was almost the most luxurious enjoyment. The same is true of Zhongnan*hai.

Sitting in such an office, Lao Feng gained three points of momentum out of thin air.

He said earnestly to Yang Rui: "Our textbook compilation team is appointed by the provincial department to supplement the new textbooks compiled by the central government. You seconded this Yang Rui to me, which not only allowed him to give full play to his ability, but also helped us better complete the tasks assigned by our superiors. Two or three years later, our textbooks have been compiled, and we will be rewarded for our meritorious deeds, how can we give people a better future. You forced him to stay in the village, and after two years, he will still be the same, so why bother?"

Zhao Dannian smiled bitterly: "It's not that I won't give it to you, it's that I can't give it to you." ”

"Lao Zhao! I know that you treat Xibao Middle School as a son, but you can't delay other people's sons, other things, you just gag, you have to listen to me in this matter. Lao Feng's tone was suddenly stern and gentle, obviously touching Zhao Dannian's spleen and stomach, and knowing how to deal with this old and angry young man.

Zhao Dannian said helplessly: "I know." ”

"You don't know - what a great opportunity this is. Lao Feng sighed.

The 80s was an era of cherishing and valuing talents.

The more grassroots it is, the more important it is to talent. In this case, there are not only cases of competition for the interests of departments, but also many thoughts of cherishing talents for the sake of the country.

Although in the eyes of many people in later generations, "wholeheartedly serving the party, the country and the people" is as unreliable as "having love and drinking water", in the 80s, there were indeed countless people who practiced it physically.

Being able to publish articles in newspapers and magazines is a symbol of talent. In later generations, many celebrities and officials completed their initial leap because of an article, a poem, or a letter.

In order to persuade Zhao Dannian, Lao Feng simply took out a number of magazines from the bookshelf, flipped out Yang Rui's articles one by one, and pointed them out to Zhao Dannian.

He really likes the articles written by Yang Rui.

Among them, there are not only papers copied by Yang Rui, but also articles that he half-copied and half-corrected, and there are two or three articles, which are still written purely by himself.

After several years as a tutor, Yang Rui actually had all kinds of ideas and ideas, and wanted to write them out and send them out, but the academic journals of later generations were corrupt and boring, and the published articles not only did not pay a manuscript fee, but also charged hundreds or even thousands of yuan to the author for "page fees".

Back in the 80s, when the old barriers were gone, and new ones had not yet been born, it was a wonderful time for researchers.

Yang Rui couldn't help but add two works that really belonged to him in the copied articles.

At this time, for people's research on the college entrance examination, his thoughts and expositions are quite valuable, and it is normal for them to be published.

In Lao Feng's eyes, the person who sent out so many articles at once must be a person with a story, and he said sympathetically: "You have to pay attention to it, even if Yang Rui doesn't understand, you have to persuade him after you understand, tell him that now is the reform and opening up, the times are different, in the future, no one will say that the more knowledge, the more you oppose, on the contrary, we will protect talents, respect talents, and attach importance to talents...... As a matter of fact, this comrade should also have an acquaintance, and if you look at it, the fact that so many articles have been published in a concentrated manner is probably also the result of his accumulation over the years, and the so-called accumulation of thick and thin hair is not it? People have not given up their studies and educational work for so many years, so we have the responsibility and obligation to give this comrade an explanation. ”

He obviously regarded Yang Rui as an intellectual who insisted on struggling and learning during the movement.

Don't look at the movement that has been over for several years, but what is written into words, people who have experienced that era, are still very careful.

Intellectuals who have been quiet for several years to poke their heads out abound. Not everyone has a coarse nerve and rejoices at the sound of the clarion call for reform.

Lao Feng is also a person who has been knocked down and stood up again, and he has extra sympathy for people like "Yang Rui", and asks very seriously: "What kind of organization is he now? Does he have a position?"

Zhao Dannian was still in shock, and muttered: "It's not compiled." ”

"It's not a substitute teacher, then you still don't let people go?" What nonsense!" Lao Feng's voice raised, he stood up, took two steps quickly, waved his hand again, and said slowly: "I don't blame you, there are many comrades who have gone down over the years, and the work to be rearranged is also very heavy." Look at how this is, I will find a way, you send me people first, don't delay any longer, let such an outstanding talent waste his youth, it is our mistake, and it is also a loss for the country......"

Zhao Dannian's immunity was extremely strong, and he didn't answer the rhetorical question: "These are all written by Yang Rui alone?"

"It's all signed by the same author...... I think it's mostly secondary education research, and there is also a little bit in literature, mainly popular science and science fiction. Lao Feng didn't look carefully at magazines such as Science Illustrated, and journals such as Middle School Student Guide are academic in nature and should be taken more seriously.

Zhao Dannian read a few short articles in disbelief, and carefully read the signatures on them, but did not speak for a long time.

Lao Feng urged again and again.

Zhao Dannian said slowly: "Yang Rui, I know one, but I am not a teacher in our school. ”

"What do you mean? Did he sign it incorrectly or something?"

"You don't understand what I mean, if the Yang Rui you are talking about is the Yang Rui I know, he is not a teacher in our school, but he may be a student. Zhao Dannian said it in one breath. If he hadn't been forced so tightly, he would at least have to go back to school to confirm before he would admit the fact that Yang Rui was a student of his school.

Lao Feng rubbed his ears and repeated, "Student, how old is the student?"

"Eighteen or nineteen years old, back to the furnace class students. Zhao Dannian recalled the chat with Yang Rui, and said: "Maybe twenty-one or twelve years old, if you go to school early." ”

"Are you sure?"

"How can I be sure of that. Zhao Dannian was lying on the sofa with an expression of incomprehension, and said: "Anyway, we have only one Yang Rui in Xibao Middle School." ”

Lao Feng couldn't be sure now, and said suspiciously: "Could it be ...... Really mistaken?"

Zhao Dannian touched his nose unnaturally and pretended to drink tea.

Lao Feng has known him for a long time, and when he saw this guy's appearance, he immediately came to his senses: "You still have nothing to say?"

"That's it. ”

"Then say it again. ”

"You old thing!" Zhao Dannian took on the posture of the Red Guards.

Lao Feng was unmoved, and urged even more.

Zhao Dannian said: "Do you remember when I came in and asked you, is there any new internal exercises or materials in the province?"

"Well, I answered, everyone is busy preparing the new textbook now, how can we have time to come up with the exercises of the old textbook. Lao Feng is talking about the new textbook this year, which will accompany the post-80s generation for a long time.

"It's not a match for the old textbooks, it's ...... How can I say it, it's a whole set of new things......" Zhao Dannian shook his head and said, "What I mean by telling you this is that it was made by Yang Rui." ”

Lao Feng didn't understand: "Which Yang Rui is this?"

"Where is there so much Yang Rui, our Xibao Middle School is this one, student Yang Rui. ”

"Oh...... Oh, you mean, this student Yang Rui has made a set of teaching materials by himself?" Lao Feng reacted and hurriedly asked, "What about the question?"

Zhao Dannian took out a few rolls from his briefcase. These were the first batch to be printed, using the school's paper and mimeograph machine, and according to his requirements, Yang Rui sent them over.

As for what happened in the last few days, Zhao Dannian himself still doesn't know about it.

Lao Feng swept over with a glance, and soon fell into a wonderful emotion, like a ...... Something that I had been thinking about for a long time suddenly exploded in my brain in a way that was closer to my own thinking.

For a person born in the '30s, this feeling of knowing better than you what you want is too fresh, too addictive, too unbelievable.

"Call this...... No, I'm going to see this Yang Rui!" Lao Feng hurriedly put away the newspapers and periodicals on the coffee table, and it turned out to be a posture of leaving immediately, and then he suddenly stopped and slapped his head: "It's broken!"

"What's wrong, can you not be surprised. ”

"Bad, bad......" Lao Feng patted his head and circled around the office twice without stopping.

"Talk about things, talk about things...... Zhao Dannian pulled him.

Lao Feng shook his head: "Do you remember Huang Weiping?"

"Why don't you remember, the ghost is very, I went back to my hometown two years ago, and we still drank together. Didn't he go back to the capital and enter some office? That kid is highly educated and lucky, what's wrong with him?"

"He called yesterday and asked about this Yang Rui. ”

"Huh?"

Lao Feng sighed and said, "Because the signature is from Hedong Province, he asked me if I knew this person, and I said I didn't know, but ......."

"But what? Do you say you're done at once?"

"I told my speculation. ”

"What speculation?" Zhao Dannian actually guessed a little, and he didn't want to ask.

Lao Feng patted his head: "What do you think, so many articles were sent out at once, and they are all very mature thoughts...... I felt at the time that if it weren't for the teachers who have been working on the front line all the year round, or if it weren't for the scholars who have been studying education for a long time, since it was your Lao Zhao's Xibao Middle School, and Huang Weiping was asking, I would have said some of my own guesses, which can be regarded as two good words. ”

Zhao Dannian's face turned green: "What good words did you say?"

"I'll just say ......," Lao Feng said in a low voice, "I'll just say that he is very likely to be an educator who has not yet been rehabilitated, and he is an educator who has been continuing to study and study for a long time." Otherwise, you can't write at such a level, and you can't write such a large number of high-quality articles......"

"Old Feng, old Feng......" Zhao Dan's nose smoked, he stood up and pointed at him, nodded his hand again and again, and said: "What do you guess? You don't know how to call me?"

"I'm sorry to say that the broken phone in your school is different nine times out of ten. ”

"Can't you wait?" Zhao Dannian's voice jumped high.

Lao Feng also had green tendons on his forehead, but after listening to Zhao Dannian's words, he softened and whispered: "Huang Weiping asked anxiously, I can't wait." ”

Zhao Dannian also calmed down a little, and said strangely: "Anxious to ask, what is he anxious about this?"

Lao Feng lowered his head: "Huang Weiping said that he was in a meeting, and someone took out the two articles written by Yang Rui, regarded them as a typical example, and said them at the meeting." Attendees are curious, let's ask the author what he thinks. ”

Zhao Dannian said sensitively: "What will?"

"I didn't ask, maybe it was about the new textbooks, maybe it was a retreat on the education front......"

Zhao Dannian was taken aback: "Central?"

"Or else. I thought at the time, the opportunity is rare, let's say a good word, this Yang Rui may not take many detours, and he can also help others recover a little time, where do I think that he is a student, how can this be a student!"

Zhao Dannian was speechless, and it took a long time to sit up and say, "Why don't you call Huang Weiping again?"

"What to say? Yesterday's meeting must have ended now, who is it for, and it's not Huang Weiping who wants to know. Besides, it's still unclear whether this Yang Rui is this Yang Rui or not. "Lao Feng's mind is messed up.

"Maybe someone at the meeting was curious, just asked, and it was over. ”

"Maybe. ”

The two can only comfort each other. However, they all know in their hearts that if they can be casually curious in the middle of the meeting, and then order someone to call, it is definitely not an ordinary person, and it is difficult to say whether they will ask and forget.
