Chapter 31: The Passing Years (I)

Yanjing City, a building with a bamboo slip badge, looks like a government unit.

Actually, this unit is very special, it has no official nature, and strangely enough, it does not belong to the people.

This is the headquarters of the Huaxia Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and until this year, it has been established for just ten years. The original purpose was to develop the Chinese cultural industry, and learned similar models from the West, but it was not exactly the same.

Today is a routine discussion of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and the eight vice presidents of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles express their opinions, but there is an old man in his 80s who is drowsy in front of him.

This is modeled after the nine-member cabinet system established by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, a nine-member evaluation team.

Among the nine people are retired professors and writers who have sealed their pens...... They are all well-known in the cultural circles and have a very high status, which can ensure the detachment and fairness of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

"Old ghost, did you fail again last time?"

An old man in his seventies turned around and gloated, while several others smiled.

"Hmph, that's not necessarily," an old writer who was called an old ghost, and he said disdainfully: "It's much better than your stuffy gourd, after coming in for so many years, count how many mentions you have?"

"What's the use of mentioning so many ghost ideas, the development of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles is quite smooth, you will only make a mess like this!"

Except for the old man at the front, they are the oldest vice chairman, and they are also the most angry.

The one who was called an old ghost was Tong Bailing, and the other was Guo Song, both of whom were giants.

Guo Song pouted and said: "Make a messy pen name, publish a few articles in the newspaper, and don't fix it!"

"Hey, it's just because people like you are sitting here that the Chinese cultural confrontation has always ......fallen behind," Tong Bailing said leisurely.

Guo Song said angrily: "Where you are lagging behind, you have to be responsible for speaking!"

Tong Bailing "snapped" and shook over a stack of texts, and raised gray eyebrows: "I don't admit it yet, I won't talk about last year, look at the national book circulation in the first half of this year...... There are 13 best-selling books with more than one million copies, 8 of which are imported from the West!"

"You've done publishing, don't you know what that means?"

"It means that Western literature has killed us in our base camp, and you will show me another one?"

Guo Song glanced at Wen Jiàn in front of him, bowed his head and said nothing.

"In order for the Chinese cultural industry to develop, there must be more literary works. Tong Bailing glanced at Guo Song no longer speaking, and he didn't care about himself, and continued: "So my mention today is to establish an author's personal section on the Huaxia Literature Network. ”

"The Internet era has come, the Chinese literature network is becoming more and more important, and the author is inseparable from the reader. ”

"Channels of communication must be established in order to inspire authors to create more work......"

The old man sitting at the front opened his slightly puffy eyelids and gestured.

The staff on the side hurriedly walked in front of Guo Song and picked up the Wen Jiàn thrown by Tong Bailing and sent it to him.

The old man changed his position, put on his reading glasses, and took it over to read it carefully.

After a while, he muttered, "It seems feasible, so let's send it down and discuss it......"

……

"At the request of the general readers, the full version of "If You Give Me Three Days of Light" was released on July 25. It is available in bookstores, outlets and newsstands in major cities across the country, and can be purchased by readers, and those who subscribe to the magazine can also choose to read serials from the Chinese Youth. ”

An advertisement quietly appeared on the homepage of the official forum of "Chinese Youth".

The bottom post quickly reached more than 100 within half an hour.

"Wise choice!"

"What kind of book is this, why haven't I heard of it, there are fewer and fewer books to read lately!"

"Just go read the upstairs, you won't be disappointed. ”

The real readers are still relatively high, and those who swear everywhere are just those who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

……

In the following week, Shen Zhe began to put his mind on studying.

The last year of high school, in the words of the teacher, is a sprint. There was a tense atmosphere in the classroom, and his classmates were in a hurry to go to the toilet after class, and even he was infected.

Immerse yourself in it, campus life does have its unique charm.

Be an ordinary student, thinking about those crazy stories in your head, once written, it will inevitably set off a storm in the land of China. Then he hid deep in his name, and this faint feeling of coolness made him laugh out loud.

In terms of learning, he only needs to review some knowledge that did not appear in the original time and space.

The new head teacher, Versace, has a very good set of teaching Mandarin, and it is said that the school dug it from other schools and specially came to lead this key class.

The Chinese language course is simple to understand, and I have a deep understanding of various allusions to Chinese culture, but it will not go beyond the scope of the college entrance examination.

is a very good teacher, every time Shen Zhe listens to the Chinese language class with relish.

But some people would not let him go, and he received an invitation to meet again, and Shen Zhe saw Su Wei at the school gate.

Urging the manuscript can always find a reason, Su Wei said: "Xiao Shen, write another manuscript, it is best to write a medium and long article, the magazine has found that such an article can attract readers more...... Your last article was published directly, and the effect of the serialization was immediately discounted, and Editor-in-Chief Wei was happy, but there are other editors-in-chief, as well as our little editors......"

"Sister Su, am I doing well in my third year of high school this year?"

Su Wei looked apologetic, and the female editor was also a little embarrassed: "You can always squeeze out half an hour every day, right? Our magazine is a weekly magazine, and writing a few hundred words a day is enough for us to serialize." ”

"Your pen name has become quite famous, and many readers have bought the magazine for this reason. ”

Shen Zhe understood and asked, "How are the magazine's sales now?"

Su Wei shrugged: "You should know that the salary of editors is not high, and it is all related to sales...... The two issues in July were over 4 million copies, but when your book was published, it slipped back to about 3.5 million copies. ”

Shen Zhe was stunned and said, "So much?"

"Yes, now the magazine knows that it is your credit, and they are very envious of me as the editor-in-charge. Su Wei laughed at herself, "Actually, I didn't do anything, I just signed a contract with you, and in the end I was rejected by the editor-in-chief." ”

"Sister Su, you are a mourning soldier who will win, right?" Shen Zhe suddenly laughed.

Su Wei also smiled: "It's quite smart, but I'm really having a hard time in the magazine, I don't have an author under me, who is the editor?"

"No new author submissions?"

Su Wei shook her head: "Yes, yes, they are all newcomers, unlike you, one of them is popular, and the star authors are all in charge of the old editors." ”

Shen Zhe thought for a while and tried to say, "How about Journey to the West fandom, I have a manuscript of fifty or sixty thousand?"

Su Wei frowned: "Journey to the West fan, the same as your Monkey King's post?"

Looking at Su Wei's expression, Shen Zhe hesitated, what he thought of was the widely circulated Wukong Legend in the original time and space. The various struggles described in the content can be written in the hearts of young people.

But after thinking about it, it is really not suitable for the sentimental magazine "Chinese Youth".

"Then change it, how about describing your love life?"

Su Wei's eyes lit up: "Do you have a name?"

Shen Zhe said: "In those years, the girl we chased together. ”

"It's very feeling, how many words?"

"It's almost less than 100,000 words, one chapter at a time, enough for months. ”

Su Wei frowned: "Isn't one chapter too little? at least two chapters, and the content should be about emotions." ”

Shen Zhe shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sister Su, don't have too much appetite, you still have to get my mother's consent for a chapter, I've been very strict lately, there's no way." ”

"Well, it's better than going home empty-handed. ”

That day, he reached a general consensus with his parents, and Shen Zhe thought that he could relax a little, but when school really started, his mother Yang Xin's attitude changed. Although the computer in the study was not sealed for him, after returning home from school, his mother came in from time to time to see if her son was studying.

According to her, even if she wants to be a writer in the future, she must first be admitted to Yan University, and other schools will not recognize it.

Except for the practice of calligraphy, all the things that have nothing to do with the textbook boil down to not doing the right thing.

What makes Shen Zhe helpless is that being admitted to Yan University is the minimum requirement for his mother, in fact, this is the best university in China. The first prime minister of China walked out of this university, so in the hearts of the Chinese people, it has a bit of sacred meaning.

He is not worried about failing to pass the exam, although in the previous admissions of Zhonghai City, the score line of Yan University was above 700 points.

It's just that she is going to be separated from Lin Yuhan, and the little girl has a good idea, and she wants to learn design, but she can't even persuade Aunt Huang.

Yanjing Fashion Institute is also good, at least they are all in the same city as Yanjing.
