It had darkened outside the window, and above the western sky, the sun had set, and the fiery clouds had become dull and devoid of brilliant colors. Stars began to appear in the sky, twinkling and twinking, and it was the first stars.

Night finally fell.

However, in the lecture hall of Fudan University, the impassioned figure standing on the podium clearly caught everyone's eyes. The blazing light that fell overhead shone on his body, gilding him with a layer of light, like a confident and unyielding knight piercing the sky in a portrait!

A fiery smell permeated the lecture hall.

The previous rivalry and the previous conflict in my heart all disappeared, as if they had never existed. All the people were enthusiastic and exuberant, and all the people were excited.

Everything looked perfect.

This was the final conclusion that Li Changzheng came to at the dinner table.

At this moment, Li Changzheng, Li Hongtao and other members of the Poetry Association, Gu Cheng and Ge Wen were sitting around a round table and chatting and laughing while eating.

Hearing Li Changzheng's words, the students of the poetry association all nodded in agreement, and one of them said excitedly: "Yes, with this speech by Gu Cheng and Gewen, our poetry association will soon become the most sensational association in Fudan University, and more and more students will definitely join our association!" At that time, our social magazine "Singing" will be able to collect more influential works! Haha......"

Li Hongbo also looked at Li Changzheng and nodded, "Long March, you are really the most suitable candidate for the president!" ”

"Oh? Now you don't want to be in the position of the president of the strong with me? Li Changzheng heard Li Hongbo's words. I couldn't help but quip. As early as when everyone established the Poetry Association before, Li Hongbo thought that he was good at poetry, and he had to volunteer to be the president. It's just that everyone thinks that it is a very unreliable thing to let a stubborn and eccentric guy be the president, so Li Hongbo has been haunting it for a long time.

Seeing Li Hongbo's convincing appearance, Li Changzheng picked up a quick amount of tofu on the table with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, and said in a gulp: "Actually, the biggest heroes today are Gu Cheng and Gewen, we should thank them." ”

Hearing Li Changzheng's words, Gu Cheng smiled and said, "Where, all the poetry collections I brought today have also been sold." Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for your help. ”

And Gowen was holding a bowl in one hand and stuffing rice into his mouth with chopsticks in the other, when he heard Li Changzheng's words at this moment. Although he didn't stop eating, he still rolled his eyes at Li Changzheng. This action was noticed by Li Changzheng, and he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" Govin, do you think today's poetry speaking event is not a success? ”

Govin ate all the rice in the bowl in his stomach, and then drank a spoonful of egg soup with a rice spoon. Only then did he slowly glance at the others who were all focused on him. Then he said angrily at Li Changzheng: "Thank me, don't you want me and Gu Cheng to compete and even quarrel so that they can help you create a bluff?" Li Changzheng, Li Changzheng, why didn't I find out that you are so powerful? ”

"It's really unladylike!" Govin shook his head as he spoke, looking regretful.

Although he knew that Govin was joking, Li Changzheng was still a little embarrassed to laugh, and several other people also laughed at him.

Gu Cheng laughed a few times, then turned his head to look at Govin and said seriously: "Actually, what I am most happy about today is not to sell the three hundred poetry books I brought, but to meet you Gowen, what you said touched me a lot." With that point of view, with your efforts and that of all of us. I believe that hazy poetry will not be a shooting star, and it will definitely be carried forward more and more! ”

Gowen smiled and nodded, then suddenly remembered what Gu Cheng said earlier, and asked, "Gu Cheng just said that you brought three hundred poetry collections?" Is it the book "Selected Lyrical Poems of Shu Ting Gu Cheng"? ”

"Hmm." Gu Cheng nodded, saw Gewen's puzzled eyes, and explained with a smile: "Actually, in addition to giving lectures at various schools and factories this time, the other main purpose of coming to Shanghai is to sell this "Selected Lyrical Poems of Shu Ting Gu Cheng". This book is a collection of poems by Shu Ting and me, and the sales in the market are not very good, so Shu Ting and I need to be self-reliant...... We professional poets also need to make money to feed our stomachs! ”

Gu Cheng couldn't help but laugh a little ashamedly when he said the purpose of his philistine, but his words did not mean a little contempt in Gewen's ears, on the contrary, he was still very shocked. In the later era, it was a declining era, and it is easy to understand that a poet lived a depressed life, after all, there are fewer and fewer readers who love poetry, and where are there still people willing to pay for any poetry collection. But this era is a period of poetry and literature, from the sales of "Harvest" and "Reader's Digest" to more than one million, you can know how nourishing the life of newspapers and magazines is, then writers and poets should also rise to the top, and the life of a poet like Gu Cheng who makes readers crazy should be very good and glamorous.

Why do Gu Cheng and Shu Ting need to sell their own poetry collections?

Gowen raised his question, and the others around him were also stunned and then paid attention to Gu Cheng's answer.

Gu Cheng smiled gently, and then explained: "Poetry is different from other forms of works, because of the limited number of words, the manuscript fee is not very much. Coupled with the limitations of poetry creation, how can a poet write good poetry every day, and it is normal for a few days or even a month to not be able to write a work that can be published......"

Another point is that although hazy poetry has been loved by more and more young people, it still cannot be published in open journals like other poems, and the hazy poems published now are actually only a small part. So what you said about Govyn at the poetry lecture tonight touched me a lot, and I think your remarks have not only opened up a new situation for hazy poetry. It will also make it easier for our hazy poets who are obsessed with expressing their inner feelings to create works that are published in newspapers and magazines! Saying this, Gu Cheng looked at Govin and picked up the wine glass on the table. Seriously touched Govyn.

In fact, the poet's life is not as good as many readers think, we have to eat, we have to dress...... At first, Shu Ting and I both came up with our own personal poetry collections, but the number of our respective works was too small, and most of them had not been published in newspapers and magazines, so in the end, the publishing house put the works of Shu Ting and me together and published them together, after all, Shu Ting and I were still well-known. It's just that this poetry collection has not been publicized on a large scale since it was published, and many readers don't know that we have published a poetry collection. So the sales volume can be imagined. ”

Gu Cheng couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face, and then he continued: "Now Shu Ting and I have brought back a batch of poetry collections from the publishing house, and then promoted and sold them ourselves. Tonight's poetry lecture at Fudan University is just the first stop. Starting tomorrow, I will go to other schools, factories, parks, and roads to do publicity, only in this way can this "Shu Ting Gucheng Lyric Poems" be known by more people, and only in this way can Shu Ting and I get more income. ”

Govyn nodded. I felt emotion in my heart. Listening to Gu Cheng, Govin learned that the poet may be the most depressed of all professional writers.

"And where are you staying tonight?" Gu Cheng's words made the hearts of everyone present not very comfortable, so the scene was quiet, and then a classmate remembered a question and opened his mouth to ask.

"Hehe, do you know that although the poets' living standards are poor, they have the happiest and most poetic life in China. In Beijing. We poets often wander around, and the identity of poets is like a pass. It allows us to move around, to connect, to collude, to meet...... As long as you go to a friend's house, report your name, say who is your friend, even if it is difficult, you will be warmly welcomed by your friends, if there is no room, then you will lay on the floor, and if you have no food, you will go to another friend's house together...... This is a poetic river and lake! Gu Cheng did not answer the classmate's question, he began to describe his wandering life in Beijing, and as he thought, Gu Cheng's face was filled with an expression of dreamlike enjoyment.

And listening to his words, Li Changzheng, Li Hongbo and others are also full of yearning.

However, Gowen frowned, if it wasn't for the question from the classmate just now, he might have ignored this question, but after listening to Gu Cheng's words, Gowen noticed that Gu Cheng seemed to have a place to sleep at night. Govin thought for a moment, then made a decision.

Gu Cheng's depiction of Beijing's poetic world made everyone present very curious and envious, and everyone asked Gu Cheng about life in Beijing.

Gu Cheng smiled and told them about life in Beijing, and he introduced the others to a collection of mimeographed poems by Ma Desheng, an artist of the Star School, who he said was very special: hundreds of "door" characters lined up in lines from beginning to end, ending with the word "no door"; He introduced the Baiyangdian Poetry School, the Yuanmingyuan Poetry Group, and the people and things in Beijing; He also recited to the crowd many of Beijing's poets, as well as his own latest poems, which had not been published in public journals but were circulated among poetry lovers in Beijing......

The meal didn't end until half past ten, Li Changzheng went out to settle the bill, and then said goodbye to Govin and Gu Cheng with the others, although Fudan University does not limit the time to return late, but the students themselves firmly abide by the habit of going back to bed before eleven o'clock. And Gewen and Gu Cheng are not in a hurry, they are not students of Fudan University, and they do not live in Fudan University.

After watching Encore Li Changzheng and them disappear outside the door, Ge Wen turned around and asked Gu Cheng, "So, Gu Cheng, you don't have a place to stay at night, right?" ”

Gu Cheng's eyes were also looking at Encore at the door, but when he heard Gowen's question, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then said with some shame: "I originally agreed with a friend in Shanghai, but he is not in Shanghai now......"

Confirming his guess, Govin interrupted Gu Cheng's words, smiled and sent out a sincere invitation: "Then, Gu Cheng will go to my house today, there is no bunk on the floor, if you don't dislike sleeping in a bed with me......"
