Chapter 3 Encouragement
The person who shouted didn't know if he really didn't know Zhu Ziqing's dormitory, or if he had another purpose. The sound was so loud that half of the floor could hear it.
Dean?
The dormitory building, which had been noisy just a moment ago, suddenly fell silent, as if it had been paused. Then a louder voice rang out than just now.
"Dean, what dean, dean of which college?"
"Who is Zhu Ziqing? I was summoned by the dean on the first day, what is wrong with this buddy. ”
"Zhu Ziqing doesn't know, it's too lonely and unheard. The author of "Seven Nights Fairy Tale", the overall champion of last year's literary competition. ”
"Oh! The media reported that he was specially recruited by our school, and I forgot if you didn't say it. ”
"I remembered, too. If it was him, it would be too normal to be summoned by the dean. If I had called him over early in the morning, I would have waited until now. ”
Zhu Ziqing is very famous in literary circles. And the school happens to be at the outskirts of this circle. Learning is the natural mission of students, which allows them to understand the trends of the literary world better than the average person.
Even people who are not interested in literature will learn something from the words of those around them. What's more, these people who can be admitted to Wuhan University can be called scholars, and they will know more about the literary world.
So most of the students here have heard the name Zhu Ziqing, but they didn't react for a while. As soon as others reminded me, I immediately understood.
is the shadow of the so-called famous tree, and the students who were still a little unbalanced about this matter just now immediately took a big turn in their attitude after knowing Zhu Ziqing's identity. That's the benefit of strength.
"Zhu Ziqing actually shares a dormitory building with us, so wouldn't we be able to exchange writing experiences with him in the future. ”
"That's hard to say, what if people don't want you. ”
"If you don't try it, you'll all have to live under one roof for the next four years. I don't think he's going to refuse to talk to everyone. ”
Those who can be admitted to the top ten universities in China are not proud people. Not to mention that the eye is above the top. At least I don't think I'm worse than others. So the word they use is 'communication' rather than 'guidance', 'learning' and so on.
Zhu Ziqing didn't know what they thought, and he was also stunned when he heard someone shouting at him. Dean: Does he know me, what are you looking for me?
However, I immediately thought of what Master Jia Qigong had said when he was a lobbyist to persuade him to come to Wuhan University, as if he had said that the dean of the Faculty of Arts was his old friend. It was the dean who entrusted him to be a lobbyist.
It seems that he has been paying attention to himself, Zhu Ziqing thought proudly in his heart. Thinking like this in my heart, my movements are not slow at all.
"I'm here. Go right away. Then he said sorry to the two roommates, and quickly followed the sound to find him.
It was the counselor of Zhu Ziqing's class who came to call people. As we all know, counselors are generally seniors, and those who do well have the opportunity to stay in school.
Of course, it is only the group that does a good job, so most of them still have to face employment pressure. This also leads to many counselors who do not seek political work in their positions and run around for their work all day long.
"Hello, I am the counselor of your class, my name is Cao Qiang. ”
"Hello, my name is Zhu Ziqing. ”
While speaking. Both of them looked at each other without a trace.
For Cao Qiang, the person in front of him is the person who appeared in "Time" as a high school student. It was the dean who personally recruited him, and it was best for him to have a good relationship with him. If there is a conflict between two people, he dares to guarantee that the party being dealt with is definitely himself.
In Zhu Ziqing's opinion, this is a counselor, and he will be his top boss for the next four years. Although there is a dean standing behind him, the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management. If you want to live comfortably, it's best to have a good relationship with him.
The counselor was neither tall nor short. About one meter seven or eight. It's just stuck on the standard line of the national average height. With a pair of thin-edged eyes, he is polite. It gives a sense of kindness.
Zhu Ziqing is not one of those classmates who have never been in the world. In his previous life, he had attended college once and had the experience of dealing with counselors. I know that under this kind appearance, what is hidden may not be a kind heart.
Of course, this is not to say that the counselor is necessarily a villain. It can only be said that a counselor is a counselor, and a student is a student, and their identities are completely different. Even if they were students not so long ago. Don't expect them to put themselves in the student's shoes.
The kindness of this counselor today is probably because of the dean.
"The dean is waiting for you in his office, let's get over there. ”
"Good. ”
As they walked, the two chatted. Most of the time, Cao Qiang said it. Ask if you are satisfied with the dormitory, and if you have anything to adjust, you can find him. Introduce some information about the university to Zhu Ziqing. Zhu Ziqing expressed his gratitude for this.
Cao Qiang came by car. So it didn't take long for the two to reach their destination.
Soon, Zhu Ziqing met this old friend of Master Jia Qigong. A very elegant old man, about fifty or sixty years old.
The dean Zhu Ziqing also knew that his name was Ai Jiange, and he had a pivotal position in the literary world.
In fact, many people have a misunderstanding of the administrative situation of universities, thinking that the presidents and department heads are the same as those in junior high and high schools, and they are all administrators. This is not wrong, but this perception is not accurate.
The presidents and department heads of famous universities are people who have made great achievements in some field, they all have their own research projects, and they usually lead research teams and do not ask about the school's affairs. You will only show up when you encounter something important.
Moreover, the power of the head of the department is also very large, and the things in the department must be nodded by them. Zhu Ziqing was specially recruited by Ai Jiange.
"Xiao Cao, I'm sorry for you. Ai Jiange nodded and said to Cao Qiang.
"Don't bother, it's all about me. Cao Qiang was very discerning, knowing that the dean had something to say to Zhu Ziqing, so he didn't stay long: "Dean, then I'll go out first." Call me again if there's something. ”
"Go ahead. ”
After Cao Qiang left, Ai Jiange turned his gaze to Zhu Ziqing. He had been looking forward to the arrival of this young man for a long time. The most outstanding newcomer in the literary world, known as the greatest genius since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Of course, what he values is not these false names, but the works written by the other party. That's the real thing. He still can't believe that the works were made by an eighteen-year-old boy.
It's not that he suspects Zhu Ziqing of plagiarism or hiring a gunman. The works under Zhu Ziqing's name are enough for a person to eat for a lifetime, and even leave a name in history. With such talent, who would sell their work to others. Unless stupid.
Especially the "Cultural Journey" composed of dozens of essays created by this teenager based on "Yangguan Snow" during his travels. It can be called the best collection of essays since the new century. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was too young, the name of the master would definitely not be able to run.
He was full of curiosity about this young man who repeatedly created miracles and was specially recruited by himself. That's why I couldn't wait to find him on the first day of school.
"Sit down. Ai Jiange said kindly.
"Thank you, Dean. Zhu Ziqing was also polite and sat down on the sofa opposite him.
"Actually, I've wanted to meet you for a long time, but you've been traveling. It wasn't until today that I got my wish. ”
"I should have come to visit you, the dean invited me in, and I didn't even express my gratitude. ”
"Haha...... Let's not be polite for the two of us. Old man Jia knew about it, and he didn't know how to laugh at us. ”
Zhu Ziqing didn't dare to take it, it was harmless for their old friends to make small jokes with each other. If he dares to say something, he is not sensible. Ai Jiange didn't expect him to answer, and then asked:
""Cultural Journey" has included 20 articles, I don't know if there are any more in the future?"
"There are more than a dozen articles in the process of being sorted out, and it is estimated that there will be no more than forty in the end. ”
"Cultural Journey" does not include the preface, opening and ending of the total of 37 articles. Of course, Zhu Ziqing would not say it so deadly. Just an approximate range is given. On the contrary, it is easier to believe.
"It's an amazing masterpiece. When I read in Time that you were going to write a collection of essays, I was worried that you were moving too fast. As a result, you did better than anyone could have imagined. ”
When Zhu Ziqing was interviewed by "Time" and said that he wanted to write a collection of essays on "Cultural Journey", there were not too many people who sang about it. They all think that it is okay to write one or two articles with his accumulation, but it is not enough to write a collection of essays.
But soon, Zhu Ziqing used his strength to give everyone a slap in the face. As he traveled, an essay was born almost every ten days, and this persisted for seven or eight months.
So far, there have been twenty essays in this collection of essays, titled "Cultural Journey". In the face of strength. Everyone kept their mouths shut.
And that's not even the most surprising. In addition to these essays, Zhu Ziqing also wrote two novels. So far. No one talks about experience and accumulation anymore.
"Writing a collection of essays like this was an idea for a long time, and I had been preparing for it for a long time. I just didn't have the opportunity to do it before. When I was interviewed, I was looking for inspiration in the places where people had lived before, and I didn't think about writing right away. Zhu Ziqing began to make up lies again:
"I know that my own affairs, and my accumulation and literary literacy are not enough to handle such a collection of essays. I'm going to record my feelings, and I'm going to slowly organize them into articles after receiving systematic education at university. ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Ziqing pretended to be ashamed.
"Who knows, it's still not enough. The rush to prove that his hasty writing led to unsatisfactory writing and an attempt to make people laugh. ”
Ai Jiange showed an expression of 'sure enough' on his face, and said with a sigh: "Rumors hurt people, rumors hurt people." ”
"After your next few articles came out, I felt that it was far less good than "Yangguanxue", and I thought that you might be influenced by the outside world and were eager to prove yourself. Now it seems that I guessed correctly. ”
Said here. The old man may have been afraid that Zhu Ziqing would be stimulated again, so he comforted him instead:
"Don't be disappointed, although those articles are deficient compared to "Yangguan Xue", they are still rare and excellent articles, who dares to laugh at you. But I hope that the rest of your essays don't rush to write, study in school for a while, and then start writing when you feel that you have accumulated enough. ”
"Thank you, Dean, that's what I planned. ”
"Cultural Journey" is Mr. Yu Qiuyu's first collection of essays, although this work broadens the width of prose and has a great impact on the development of Chinese culture. However, there are still certain deficiencies in its overall literary quality. Except for a few of the most classic articles such as "Yangguan Snow", "Taoist Tower", and "Mogao Grottoes", the rest are not the most top-notch.
Zhu Ziqing gave priority to those who were deficient, and the classic preparations were left for the end. That's why we have this conversation.
Next, the two exchanged some knowledge about writing, of course, it was basically Ai Jiange who said that Zhu Ziqing listened.
Although in the past year, he has felt the weakness of his own ability, and he has made up for it for a while. But in front of this literary senior, he still has to listen.
It wasn't until it was dark that Ai Jiange let him go. Before leaving, he repeatedly told him that if there was anything he didn't understand, he could come to him at any time. (To be continued......)
PS: The new volume has three chapters over the chapters, which can be very boring. But the transition is finally over.,Tomorrow will start to enter the plot.。 By the way, I ask for a recommendation ticket.
