Chapter Twenty-Six: A Genius Boy

In fact, in the past few weeks, reports about "Zhu Xian" and its author Yuelang Xingxi have not stopped.

The first report was because "Oriental Daily" cut Ni Kuang's serialized novel in half, and serialized a little-known author's Xianxia novel "Zhu Xian", which directly attracted ridicule from several other newspapers.

Most of what these newspapers say is "Broken Boat? Stupid? ”

Although it is said that there are two choices, they all agree that it is the latter, serializing a Xianxia novel by an unknown author, and giving up the novel of Ni Kuang, which is now in full swing, is it not stupid to be extremely stupid?

At that time, Ma Chengkun was angry when he saw these reports and tore up the newspaper directly, but the editor-in-chief Wang and the deputy editor-in-chief Liu comforted, "Now the sales have not been counted, no matter what they say, besides, we are originally engaged in a gamble, and we are just a loser." Ma Chengkun thought about it after hearing this, and there was no other way, so he had to calm down and wait for the sales to be summarized, of course, as for the good news brought by "Zhu Xian" later, everyone knew.

In the face of the fact that the sales of "Oriental Daily" have rebounded, those media are still not optimistic about "Zhu Xian", thinking that this is just everyone's curiosity about Xianxia novels, and then the results will decline.

In fact, this is the tacit understanding of the media, otherwise, where will the news come from, there is no big news in the entertainment industry, so use this to fight a war of words, otherwise how to attract readers.

It wasn't until later that the sales of "Oriental Daily" became higher and higher, and everyone began to discuss the author of Yuelang Xingxi, speculating whether it was the new pen name of the old author.

But "Oriental Daily" is silent about this, that is, it does not announce it, and everyone knows that "Oriental Daily" finally found a sales guarantee, how could it expose the news and let others grab it.

However, today is different, the front page headline "Genius Boy" of "Oriental Daily" actually exposed the true information of the author of "Zhu Xian".

This is indeed surprising, but there is even more surprising that the author of the novel, Yue Lang Xingxi, is a 14-year-old secondary school student.

I saw that under the headline "Genius Boy" on the front page of "Oriental Daily" is a photo, which is a photo of Chen Lang wearing a school uniform, in the photo, Chen Lang's facial features are delicate and smiling, and the first thing everyone sees is that they think this kid is really beautiful.

Then there is the specific information: a student in Form 3 with excellent academic performance, the president and anchor of the campus radio club, in addition to participating in the guitar club.

The first Xianxia novel "Zhu Xian" is being serialized in "Oriental Daily", and he is still a singer-songwriter, and his current representative works are only two "Mice Love Rice" and "Childhood".

The following is also attached to the content of Chen Lang's speech at the opening ceremony, as well as the witty words on the campus radio, which are actually all kinds of divine replies and brain teasers.

Everyone was shocked after watching Chen Lang's speech, this teenager is really young and invincible, and then seeing Chen Lang's witty words on the campus radio, everyone who reads the newspaper laughed, this is really a humorous boy.

After everyone finished reading it, there was a burst of discussions, talking about this genius boy. More media directly found the school based on the information in the newspaper, ambushed at the door, waited for Chen Lang's arrival, and interviewed the school's classmates by the way.

"This classmate, do you know Chen Lang?" The reporter took the microphone and grabbed a girl and asked.

"Chen Lang, of course I know, he is so beautiful, he is definitely the first beautiful in our school, and he is so talented, and he sings super beautiful songs......" Seeing that the girl in front of him was completely immersed in his own madness, the reporter was a chill.

This kid is so well-known. finally got rid of this girl, found another boy, and asked, "This classmate, do you know Chen Lang, a classmate?" ”。

"Of course I know, I'm his tablemate, the novel "Zhu Xian" he wrote is super good-looking, and the person is also beautiful, although it is a little worse than me, but it's still good, and he can also write songs and sing, especially the song "Childhood" You don't know how much of a sensation it caused in school......"

It was Chen Jian who was interviewed, which was like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman for Chen Jian, who loved to be in the limelight, it was endless, of course, in his opinion, everything has his credit, and the reporter can't hold up who is this school?

The other reporters got similar results, this is indeed a genius boy, and there is no bad track to follow. At this time, Chen Lang and his sister Chen Yun happened to come to the school gate.

When I saw so many students and reporters at the door, I thought that I would come so soon, and I deserve to be a reporter, and this quality is high. I don't know who shouted, "Chen Lang is here." ”

Then I saw a large wave of reporters rushing towards Chen Lang, and my sister Chen Yun was so frightened that she retreated directly.

And Chen Lang was also a little nervous when he saw so many reporters rushing towards him, and when he heard the sound of "popping" taking pictures, his eyes were shaken and hurt, and it took a while to recover.

As soon as he raised his head, he felt that his mouth was full of microphones, "Chen Lang, may I ask if you are the author of "Zhu Xian" and "Zhu Xian"?" ”

"Chen Lang, are you really only fourteen years old? How did you come to write "Zhu Xian". ”

"Chen Lang, I heard that you also created two songs, "Mice Love Rice" and "Childhood", is it true?"

……

Chen Lang looked at so many reporters asking questions in front of him, and it was very noisy for a while, and suddenly Chen Lang saw Chen Jian drill in, and then yelled, "Shut up for me." ”

In an instant, everyone fell silent, Chen Jian saw that everyone was quiet, smiled proudly, and then continued without giving everyone time to react.

"I know everyone wants to interview Chen Lang, but you guys are so noisy, Chen Lang can't hear a single question clearly, so I'll name whoever asks the question, and it can only be one question, do you understand?"

When Chen Lang heard this, he gave him a thumbs up, secretly praising Chen Jian for having the potential to become a press spokesman, and everyone saw Chen Lang giving a thumbs up to this classmate, so they should have agreed, so they also quieted down and waited for Chen Jian's guidance.

Chen Jian was even happier when he saw that everyone was looking at him expectantly, this is also a coarse nerve and a big heart, "Okay, it's you, this beautiful reporter of Ming Pao." ”

When everyone heard this, there was a wave of contempt in their hearts, and they didn't learn well at a young age. The beautiful reporter who was ordered smiled and asked, "May I ask Chen Lang, are you the author of "Zhu Xian", is there anything you can prove?" ”

When Chen Lang heard that even the reporters of "Ming Pao" had doubts about the identity of the author of his novel, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless, or he was too young.

"I am indeed the author of the serialized novel "Zhu Xian" in the "Oriental Daily", as for the proof, there are two, one is that "Zhu Xian" was read in front of the whole class on the first day of school, and everyone in the class can prove it, and then I went to submit it after school that night.

By the way, I voted for "Ming Pao", "Sing Tao Daily" and "Oriental Daily" respectively, maybe you can look in the trash can, maybe you can find my submission, with my home address on it. ”

As soon as Chen Lang finished speaking, everyone looked at the reporters of "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Daily" with strange eyes, and these two reporters were a little embarrassed, secretly scolding the reviewers of the newspaper for being stupid and embarrassing themselves.

"The second is Liu, the deputy editor-in-chief of Oriental Daily, who personally came to my house to sign a contract with me, and Oriental Daily was very sincere, and our conversation was very pleasant, and he signed the contract at my house at that time.

For this, I am very grateful to Oriental Daily and Deputy Editor-in-Chief Liu for their appreciation and respect. Of course, the most direct proof of this is the check from the Oriental Daily, and I don't think the Oriental Daily is stupid enough to make the wrong author and pay the wrong author. Chen Lang teased.

In fact, the reporters present knew in their hearts that there could be nothing wrong with this kind of thing, but Chen Lang's 14-year-old age was really unbelievable, and in the end, everyone could only admit that there was indeed a genius in this world.

After Chen Jian saw that Chen Lang finished answering the question of the beautiful reporter of "Ming Pao", he thought for a while before thinking of the reporter of "Oriental Daily", so he hurriedly named him, and the reporter of "Oriental Daily" was very face-saving.

"With the development of the storyline and the display of the grand world of Xianxia, the novel "Zhu Xian" will become more and more exciting, and may even become a classic of Xianxia novels, so how did you come up with the idea of creating this novel?"

"I also like to read novels (although it's not the same as you), among them, I was amazed when I first read the "Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" by the owner of the Pearl Building, I believe that there are not a few people who feel this way, at that time it was still young, but the impression has always been very deep.

Later, I read a lot of martial arts novels, and I have read all the novels of Jin Yong and Mr. Gu Long, but "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" has always been in my mind, so I really want to find this kind of novel again.

But I found that almost all of it is martial arts and Ni Kuang's science fiction now, and I didn't find a single Xianxia classic at all, even if it is a high-quality Xianxia novel, and I felt very disappointed at the time.

At this time, it suddenly occurred to me that since there is no good-looking Xianxia novel, then I will write one myself, so I have the novel "Zhu Xian". ”

Chen Lang casually made it up, anyway, others don't know his secrets, and he likes to say whatever he wants.

"Chen Lang, can you tell me how much your remuneration is?"

"Of course, this is okay, the remuneration price given to me by "Oriental Daily" is 80 yuan per thousand words." Hearing this question, Chen Lang was a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, he felt that there should be nothing.

As soon as the results were finished, the reporters were all exclaimed, including the reporter of "Oriental Daily", and it seemed that he did not know Chen Lang's specific remuneration.

"80 yuan for 1,000 words, this is too high, and the average author is only 50 yuan for 1,000 words, which is the price of a well-known writer."

"I know the price is a bit too high for me as a newcomer, but that's why I said that Oriental Daily is very sincere, and I really appreciate them."

After speaking, Chen Lang found that there were no students at the school gate, and it should be time for the morning meeting, so he pulled Chen Jian out of the encirclement of reporters and ran towards the school.
