Chapter 45: Bad Students

The small conference room of the editorial department of "Chinese Youth"

"Editor-in-Chief Zhong, you said last year that you can't publish the true information of the owner of Peach Blossom Island without asking the author's consent. Now that the new work is about to be released, I wonder if it's time to be announced?"

More than a dozen reporters from the media stationed in China and China Shipping stared at Zhongli with blazing eyes.

Also participating in this media conference were Lin Yuanzhi, the editor-in-chief of martial arts who joined not long ago, and Su Wei, the editor-in-charge of Shen Zhe.

The reporters chatted for a while, and after Zhongli smiled helplessly and said that he couldn't answer several questions at the same time, a male reporter from Huaxia.com in his twenties first asked a question with a voice recorder.

Huaxia.com is the No. 1 portal in China, and when there are reporters present, they will generally get courtesy from their peers, whether sincere or false.

"Yes, we have communicated with the author himself......"

Zhongli hesitated for a moment, and a reporter interjected: "Is he willing to show up?

The reporters all looked at this rookie, and some people frowned and said: "Two bestsellers, at least they are four stars, don't you need to ask?"

"Well, everyone understands people, and the current pen name of the owner of Peach Blossom Island is indeed four-star. ”

"Four stars?" a male reporter on the side who reacted quickly immediately asked, "So, he was originally a newcomer?"

Zhongli looked at him and gave him a thumbs up, and was immediately asked, "What about your specific identity?"

"Well, that's why we hid his identity last year, because this year is the year he took the college entrance exam. As we all know, the college entrance examination is one of the most important things in life for Chinese students. ”

"Second only to the wedding scene. Zhongli shrugged and made a joke.

"What!"

"You mean the owner of Peach Blossom Island is a high school student?"

The reporters were in an uproar, there was a commotion in the small conference room, and the people behind looked at each other.

"Editor-in-Chief Zhong, do you mean the author who published two best-selling books last year, or a senior in high school?"

It is not surprising that high school students publish books in China, this kind of thing has happened before, and it is rare to become a best-selling author. If you can have this level in your teens, then the peak period of your life will be super long, and the possibility of becoming a master in the future is very high.

"Although I had the same expression as you when I first met him, that's exactly what happened. Zhongli spread his hand and said.

Now the reporters are really a little excited.

Originally, it was unlikely that there would be explosive news in literature, but they came here to see the heat of the event on the Internet and have the mentality of trying it out.

But if it's really like what the editor-in-chief said, this time I really got a not small piece of news, and it didn't come in vain.

"Can you get the author himself to be interviewed by us?"

"This ......" Zhongli looked embarrassed.

Through the communication between Su Wei and Shen Zhe, the magazine has basically understood his attitude.

It's okay to be interviewed, but if you don't want too much media involvement, it's better to choose a trusted media outlet to contact alone.

Shen Zhe didn't want to become a star and disturb his normal life too much.

The chip in his mind has so many works, even if only a small part is released, it is normal to become an author with more than six stars.

You must know that the six-star author of the Huaxia Federation of Literary and Art Circles is still very famous, and he is not inferior to the stars in the entertainment industry. The main reason is that China's entertainment culture has not yet entered the stage of madness, and music, film and television are inseparable from literary creativity and are closely related.

Literature is weak, and the entertainment industry is naturally sluggish.

Don't underestimate the public's ability to discriminate, good things are good, and they are very clear.

Last year, the six-star author Li Xiang was afraid to speak up for a long time because of Shen Zhe's two articles, just because readers read the articles and questioned his works.

Lin Yuanzhi looked at the chaotic scene, looked a little surprised, and asked Su Wei in a low voice: "Editor Su, is Xiaozhe very famous?"

Su Wei's face was also a little excited, Shen Zhe was currently the author of the biggest card under her hands. Although she is only four stars at present, after reading the upcoming serialized "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua", she is extremely confident that the future is very bright.

Once the concept of martial arts can be successfully promoted, and three or five more works are published, it is very likely that a master author of six or seven stars will be produced under his own hands.

It's a certainty, Su Wei thought silently in her heart.

"Editor-in-Chief Lin, didn't Xiao Shen tell you that he has already published two books?"

Lin Yuanzhi shook his head blankly.

"Last year's bestsellers were only about 20 books, two of which were published by Xiao Shen under the pseudonym of the owner of Peach Blossom Island. ”

Su Wei said two titles, and Lin Yuanzhi was also a little surprised, he usually only pays attention to chivalrous literature, and is not very sensitive to other genres. However, I have really heard of those two titles in the unit, and they are both on the best-selling list, but I didn't expect the author to be Shen Zhe, who I have known since childhood.

"This stinky boy!"

……

In the afternoon of the same day, Huaxia.com announced part of Shen Zhe's information under the blockbuster news on the homepage.

Although the news position is not the most prominent, it is also inadvertently seen by many people, and soon the news is forwarded to other parts of the network.

"Where did the fake news come from......"

That is, the author of "Those Years" has been in society for at least a few years, otherwise he would not be able to write that feeling. ”

Soon, these people followed the traces to Huaxia Net.

"I'll go, it's true!"

"Ah, how is this possible, can't even be fooled by the website? The island owner can't be a little brother hiding behind a textbook and secretly writing novels!"

“…… Xiao Ke is a high school student, as a girl, expressing deep suspicion!"

"It seems to be true, it is not uncommon for high school students to publish books, and there are no ones who can enter the best-selling list, not to mention two books a year, worship the island owner!"

"I'm a Helen fan anyway, so what else can surprise me...... Well, the soot scares the keyboard!"

"According to my own identification, there is a house pig upstairs!"

At seven or eight o'clock in the evening, when the Internet rush came, most of the posts about the owner of Peach Blossom Island were artificially pinned by netizens.

Shen Zhe didn't expect that he casually gave a screen name and let himself get the nickname of the island owner among netizens.

In fact, the cumulative sales of the two books published by Shen Zhe last year are not high compared to the total readership of China, and "If You Give Me Three Days of Light" has just broken the million mark in China, but the reader's evaluation is very high. And "Those Years" only ranked sixth on the best-selling list, and there were two other masterpieces with more than five million copies in front of it.

Shen Zhe's biggest fans among netizens are the readers of "Those Years", and more than 90% of them are Shen Jiayi's fans.

These readers are the main force of today's netizens, making this pen name much more famous on the Internet than in reality.

The next day, the heat of the discussion increased again, and the media who participated in the magazine meeting also reported the news, which also caused a wave in the Chinese literary circles, some frowning, and some gratifying.

A post suddenly appeared on the literary network, pushing the news to ** again.

The name of the post is called: It turns out that the owner of the island is a bad student!

Many readers of "Those Years" think that Ke Jingteng is the author's autobiography, and now they know that the author himself was still in his second year of high school at the time, and he has a feeling of being deceived. Thinking that he still had time to write novels when he was about to take the college entrance examination, he was completely unprofessional, a big bad student.

Zhang Lin and Zhang Lulu also saw the news on the Internet.

This is a double dormitory, the conditions of the school are still good, and the two freshman girls were randomly assigned to this dormitory when they reported.

After understanding, I found that I still had the same surname, and I saw "Those Years" in the other party's luggage, and I liked this book very much, and soon became good sisters after the official start of school.

"Why is it a junior?" Lulu pouted, looking very angry.

Xiao Lin also frowned, but quickly relaxed: "Lulu, we all guessed wrong, the island owner only took the college entrance examination this year, a year later than us." ”

"Isn't it supposed to be an uncle?"

"You, that's originally a novel, maybe you have too much sense of substitution...... Don't you like it?"

Lulu bit her lip and thought for a while, and said dejectedly: "Although it's not the same as I imagined, I still like to read it." ”

"Wouldn't that be good, maybe the island master will really become our junior this year......

"Wow, yes, if he shows up, I'm sure I'll have to ask him which university he's enrolled in!"

Lulu soon became happy, and happily flipped through the news about the owner of Peach Blossom Island to see if there was any content of her interview.

"If he really becomes our junior, he must be asked to write a novel about college students again!"
