Chapter Thirty-Three: Going North to Begin
Shanghai City, Fudan University. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Teacher, you really don't plan to help Yu Bai say something?" Shen Wenjuan held the People's Daily in her hand, looking anxious and coquettish.
But today's Lin Fangqing is not like spoiling her in the past, let alone obeying her words as in the past, but took off his glasses a little irritably and sat heavily on the sofa in the office.
"It's not a question of whether to help or not, it's that Yu Bai said too much, he is already standing on the edge of the cliff, no matter what I say and do, whether I support or oppose it, there is only one result, and that is to retreat him." Although Lin Fangqing said incompletely, it did not prevent Shen Wenjuan from comprehending the meaning.
In fact, when she saw Yu Bai's article published in the People's Daily today, she was already aware of this problem.
There may be such and such problems in the current literary world, but the practitioners in it, whether it is authors, literati, or even other practitioners, they are all doing things step by step.
Can't they see the problem?
It's not, it's just that they don't want to say it, they don't want to uncover this last piece of shame.
But Yu Bai did this, not only did he do this, but he also did it without leaving any room for it, for others, for the literary world, and even more so for himself.
Shen Wenjuan didn't know under what circumstances Yu Bai had written this article, but she knew that Yu Bai was very likely to enter an embarrassing situation.
It is natural to oppose him, because most people are not as shameless as he is, and they will do everything possible to pull this fig leaf back.
Supporting him was expected, but the result had little impact on Yu Bai himself.
Because the final result will cause Yu Bai to be condemned by everyone to a high place, and the high place at this time is not to stand high and see far, but to stand higher and fall harder.
It was precisely because of this that Shen Wenjuan hurriedly found Lin Fangqing, hoping that he would come forward to talk to Yu Bai.
And that's what it turned out to be.
There was no refusal or that she would do what she said.
Lin Fangqing looked at Shen Wenjuan, who was in a trance, put the glasses in his hand back on, and then continued, "I won't tell you anything, just before you came, in just two hours, several old guys had already called me and asked me if Yu Bai was crazy!" Can you understand how big the impact of Yu Bai's words is? ”
Speaking of excitement, Lin Fangqing got up from the sofa again, came to Shen Wenjuan, and said earnestly, "Wenjuan, I know that you appreciate Yu Bai, but today, Yu Bai is no longer the Yu Bai at that time, you can no longer take care of him like you did when you were in the new concept competition, and I, I'm afraid I can't help him this time, I can only rely on himself." ”
"But...... However, Yu Baiwen said that he was inspired to post this article because Wang Tansheng was framed and imprisoned, shouldn't we help him, at least help him find out the truth. Although Shen Wenjuan tried her best to debate, she felt that this debate was so unconfident, as if she was making a final pointless struggle.
And Lin Fangqing naturally knew it, so he shook his head and didn't say anything more.
Subsequently, the door of the office was pushed open, and Shen Wenjuan knew him, who was the editor-in-chief of the Shanghai Literature and Art Newspaper.
"Lao Lin, what's going on with this Yu Bai, it's too ignorant, how can this kind of thing be said in public, and it's still in the People's Daily, is he ......?"
Shen Wenjuan walked out, she didn't hear the words behind, but she could guess eight or nine.
Then he lifted the newspaper in his hand, looked at it a few times, and then gently put it down.
……
Fu Yingying, school will start in a few days, she feels that she has gained a lot this summer, and the most important thing is to have an author he loves very much-Yu Bai.
Although in the end, in the book "Sadness", he indicated that he would close the pen, Fu Yingying firmly believed that Yu Bai would not disappear like this.
As if to prove her conjecture correct, on this night, when her good friend Huang Ya came to play, she actually mentioned Yu Bai.
"Yingying, do you know that Yu Bai wrote an article again, and it was published in the People's Daily."
"Really? Where, let me see, what article did he write this time, is it good? Fu Yingying couldn't wait to find Huang Ya.
However, Fu Yingying said while laughing, "It's itching, this time he didn't write a story or a novel, it seems to be a ...... something."
"Oh, how can you do this, you can't even remember what my idol wrote."
"Please, I'm not a fan of him, it's you...... Otherwise, I wouldn't be too lazy to memorize these things, so brain-consuming! By the way, I just listened to what my mother said, saying that Yu Bai may be on fire recently, and it's a mess of fire. ”
"How?" Fu Yingying was upbeat when she heard this, because she felt that Yu Bai had always been very popular, because when she read other magazines, she often saw Yu Bai's name. is not to comment on the books he wrote, or to say which bestseller list he has been on, and all of this is carefully treasured by Fu Yingying.
Perhaps, this is one of the few secrets in the heart of a freshman high school girl.
Huang Ya thought for a moment before he continued, "It was the article he wrote in the People's Daily that had a great response, and then my mother said that now 90% of the newspapers in the post office have reprinted that article, and so many newspapers in our Beijing City have his name, and you say that he is not popular." ”
"Wow, that's amazing!" Fu Yingying was a little surprised for a while.
However, Huang Ya quickly continued, "It doesn't seem to be, when my father came home in the evening, he said that there has been a lot of excitement recently, and it is estimated that many people will come to scold Yu Bai......"
"Scolding Yu Bai? Why do you call me an idol? The stories he writes are so beautiful. Fu Yingying was also anxious.
But Huang Ya couldn't explain it clearly, "Where do I know why, but I don't think it's a bad thing, just like my mother said, maybe it's not a bad thing, celebrities aren't like this, it's always hyped up and hyped, and in the end it's not a hot mess." ”
"Oh yes."
Of course, Huang Ya and Fu Yingying may not know the difference between an author in the literary circle and a star in the entertainment industry, but like many people who like Yu Bai, they all have a simple and practical idea, that is, they hope that Yu Bai will live well, live well, and write books well.
……
Qiaoping County, Zhongzhou City.
The day before the publication of the literary death, Pu Lizi took the train from Downtown City non-stop, and after a night of travel, she finally arrived in Zhongzhou the next day, and then she didn't have time to rest, so she took a bus to Qiaoping.
Even on the way, Pu Riko still imagined the scene when literature was dead and published on the front page of the People's Daily and seen by the people of the whole country.
An indignant refutation?
It's still a stunning appreciation.
Whether it is the former or the latter, Pu Lizi knows that he has done what he has to do, and the rest will be left to Yu Bai to do, because he is the author of this article, whether it is about the death of literature, or about other ideas in the article, only Yu Bai can say his original intention in such a chaotic and chaotic torrent.
Qiaoping County, is the first time Pu Lizi came, in fact, there are few cities in the north except for Beijing City and Tianjin City, and most of the impressions of the north are in the high-rise buildings of the bustling city.
It was only after stepping on the car bound for Qiaoping County, and seeing the wheat fields and the hard work of the peasants along the way, that he initially had the impression of the northern countryside outside the city.
Pu Lizi is not a child of a wealthy family, on the contrary, his hometown is in the countryside of Hunan Province, and he has a different kind of feelings about the countryside.
As soon as he thought that he might see Yu Bai later, he felt a little inexplicably emotional and excited.
I feel that after a few days, it has been earth-shaking changes.
Excited because of the place in the Chinese literary world, it may finally be a wave because of a few people, and he Pu Lizi is also one of several people, and Yu Bai is naturally too.
Thinking of this, looking at the scene outside the car window, Urariko couldn't help but smile.
……
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and no one cares about what he does.
Although Yu Bai said that it was not a government and county order, he did not do anything harmful to others and himself. But he was really happier than ever, just because he could eat skewers, drink beer, and fart with a few of his buddies like before.
can also hold hands with Zhao Xueman in the county park, point to flowers and talk about love, or accompany Yiren and accompany her to take pictures of her favorite scenes. No one comes over to ask for autographs anymore, and there are no annoying harassing phone calls.
All this made Yu Bai intoxicated and cherished.
Because he is a lost person, no one understands better than him how difficult and beautiful it is to have all this again and start again.
Another point is that he has recently started to prepare a new book, and the battle for online literature is a long journey, not an overnight thing, so it is very important to open a book.
But today, Yu Bai, who was racking his brains and thinking about what story to write, suddenly received a phone call that surprised him.
"Li stupid? Why is he calling at this time? ”
Despite some doubts, he answered the phone.
"Busy?"
"It's okay, what are you ......?"
"It's good not to be busy, in fact, even if you're busy, it's okay, you have to come over anyway."
"Where are you going?"
"Come pick me up, I'm at the Qiaoping County Long-distance Bus Station now."
"You're here for Qiaoping?"
"Nonsense is not, you listen to the authentic Qiao Ping accent......"
Then, Yu Bai heard the messy noise of the bus station, as well as the voices of the taxi and tricycle masters who were picking up customers at the door.
"Do you want to take the car? Where are you going, brother? ”
"This car is cheap, as long as I don't go out of the city, I can run for five yuan."
"What's the matter, Lao Li, your tricycle should have been repaired a long time ago, and I can't wait to stun people when I run a road."
"What are you doing, you don't care if I fix it or not, it's cheaper than your taxi anyway."
“……”
Yu Bai vaguely felt that something seemed to be waiting for him.
"Okay, I'll pick you up right away, but you shouldn't be here for a tour this time."
And after Pu Lizi bypassed those enthusiastic masters, she said solemnly to Yu Bai, "How can it! I just want to play, but I have to be in that mood. Unlike you, when you said you would leave, I was left alone to run around for you. ”
"What do you say?"
"Literature is dead, it was published on the front page of yesterday's People's Daily, I came this time, not for anything else, just to let you follow me to Begin City."
“……”
At this moment, even Yu Bai himself didn't know what he was thinking, he only felt that his head was buzzing, and the hand that didn't hold the mobile phone had already clenched into a fist at some point, which should have been a happy thing, but Yu Bai acted like a great enemy.
Although he has been comfortable during this time, he has always held a breath in his heart, and now it is time for this breath to be released.
It's time to come, it's finally here.
