Chapter 39, Jinling media are all here
In January 2002, a storm of public opinion swept through China.
Countless people on the Tianya Forum are discussing the same person: "14-year-old literary genius - Chen Xueqian." ”
However, the controversy surrounding this genius has persisted.
"What kind of Chinese is he? My mother is Japanese, grew up in Japan, went to school, and wrote novels in Japan, does it have anything to do with us in China? ”
"People are willing to admit that they are Chinese, and this is the greatest patriotism." Who wants to say that he is not Chinese, I am in a hurry with whom! ”
"Upstairs waiting, it's not certain whether this Chen Xueqian is the author of "Spring Things". I didn't see a professor refute the rumors, and there was no such thing in Japan at all. ”
"I'm going to hehe~~~ There is a picture and a truth."
"Nippon TV interviewed them."
"It's not clear at all, okay, maybe someone else wrote it!"
Although it was only 2002 at this time, and the Internet was far less influential than later generations, it was already beginning to take shape.
In addition to the Internet, various tabloids and magazines are also reported all over the country.
Many newspapers and magazines saw the Japanese report and determined the authenticity of this incident, and Mr. Chen was interviewed everywhere in the country, and for a time it was full of people everywhere: "14-year-old literary genius, he conquered Japan!" ”
A huge headline with a photo of the imposter being interviewed in Japan.
Countless people have been provoked by this full gimmick and the psychological excitement of conquering Japan with strong national feelings. have paid for it. For a while, the news swept everywhere like a raging wind. This has set off a frenzy of public opinion in the country, and its influence is increasing day by day.
In the sub-Internet era, although a piece of news cannot spread quickly, it is also troublesome to refute rumors.
If the news involves two countries, it is basically a fog.
The Chen Xueqian impersonation case this time is an extremely absurd but helpless incident that seized this gap.
On Sunday morning, Chen Xueqian woke up early.
He stayed at Bai Feifei's house last night, he lived for thirty years in his previous life, and he didn't stay at a female friend's house (rental housing is not counted).
At the age of fourteen in this life, he completed the unfinished feat of his previous life, but Chen Xueqian was not happy, but embarrassed.
When he fidgeted in the living room, waiting for Bai Feifei's family to come back, he was thinking about how to greet him for a while, and whether this was a new son-in-law coming to the door and other dirty thoughts.
And Bai Feifei sat on the side, wearing a long lady's skirt and black jumpsuits. I have to say that the aesthetics of goddess-level characters are indeed superior, even if you look at Bai Feifei's dress at this time from the perspective of ten years later, you can't find anything wrong.
It's just that the small feet are put in a pair of one-piece socks, hooked and flicked a slipper, and Chen Xueqian's nose is faintly hot.
It turns out that my puberty is so hot!
Waited left and right, until it was nearly twelve o'clock, Bai Feifei got up with a smile on his face.
"Okay, I'm going back to sleep?"
Chen Xueqian was dumbfounded, so should he continue to wait? It's not appropriate for him to wait here alone!
However, Bai Feifei ignored him and went back to the room by himself. Chen Xueqian, who was helpless, had no choice but to go back to the guest room to rest.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day Chen Xueqian obviously didn't sleep well and woke up early, for fear that he would be rude if he got up late.
However, Bai Feifei's huge villa was quiet and did not make a sound.
After sitting in the living room for half an hour, Bai Feifei came out of the room with a lazy face.
"So early?" Bai Feifei casually said hello to Chen Xueqian.
Chen Xueqian was speechless.
"Your family rests late on the weekends." In the end, Chen Xueqian knocked on the side. This feeling of waiting for the parents to meet is too embarrassing, although he doesn't look like a bastard who wants to arch other people's cabbage.
"Oh, they're on a trip!" Bai Feifei said lightly.
Chen Xueqian froze on the spot, and after a while, he yelled: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Bai Feifei glanced at him like a nobody.
"Tell you early, what if you have a beastly hair in the middle of the night? I'm a weak little white flower, and I'll be woe to you again! ”
Chen Xueqian was so suffocated by her that he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
In this way, Chen Xueqian followed Bai Fei out of the door with a resentful face, and rushed to Tianshui Yaji. Prepare to be interviewed by Yangjiang Evening News. However, before they could get there, Jack's phone called.
"Dear Sam, our contracts have been drawn up, you can come and have a look at it when you have time, no problem we can sign the contract, I can't wait to see the rest of the story."
Chen Xueqian was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect the other party's movements to be so fast. But seeing that the time agreed with Wu Yunming was approaching. Where will he have time?
Jack noticed his hesitation, and his heart tightened. He has always been afraid that Chen Xueqian will negotiate a contract with other publishing houses. In the United States, though, they are the largest publishing house. But that doesn't mean they have an absolute advantage, and there are some small publishers who are often willing to pay more for a good book.
"Dear Sam, may I ask you what is the difficulty? It's okay, we can go over and find you. When you're done with the things at hand, we can sign the contract directly. Jack said in a completely low voice.
This is actually related to the market habits of the United States. The United States has always been a buyer's market, and it has mostly been based on this relationship of equality and cooperation in business cooperation. This is purely a matter of habit.
Chen Xueqian felt the other party's anxiety and sincerity, and groaned slightly.
"Jack, you go directly to Tianshui Yaji, and we'll sign the contract there."
When Chen Xueqian and Bai Feifei's car approached the vicinity of Tianshui Yaji, they faintly felt that there seemed to be a lot of people today.
When they walked into Tianshui Yaji, they found that there were not many ordinary people. And these people are not ordinary people. It's journalists!
Chen Xueqian was a little at a loss for a while, when did "Yangjiang Evening News" have so many reporters? And with so many microphones, what the hell is a camera?
Chen Xueqian, who had a stomach full of questions, walked up to the second floor, and Wu Yunming, who was far away, led a large group of people to greet him.
Wu Yunming was extremely enthusiastic, looking at Chen Xueqian with a puzzled face, he smiled heartily.
"Classmate Chen, you are here, in order to see you, today, all the major media in Jinling are here. The city news station will also send someone over later. ”
Chen Xueqian was a human being in two lives, and he was also shocked by this battle for a while. What's going to be done?
Wu Yunming didn't explain much, but led Chen Xueqian to an interview table prepared early and sat down.
Chen Xueqian saw that he didn't explain, and the current situation was estimated to be impossible to leave, so he settled down and sat down. Bai Feifei on the side was silent from beginning to end, playing the role of a transparent person. It's just that with her appearance, it's very difficult to be a transparent person. Just what Chen Xueqian saw was no less than ten media cameras for private use, and secretly took beautiful photos of Bai Feifei.
Everyone at the scene seemed to be waiting for someone, and a group of people surrounded Chen Xueqian, but they were not in a hurry to come forward for an interview.
After a while, the group finally walked through the crowd and came to the second floor.
Looking at this group of people, reporters from other media stood up to greet them. When the group came to Chen Xueqian, one of the tall beauties in a professional skirt stepped forward to greet Chen Xueqian.
"This is classmate Chen, right? I'm Cao Yi, the host of Jinling News Channel. ”
Chen Xueqian shook hands lightly with the other party, but there was no stage fright. He is also a person who has seen big scenes. Although today's scene was unprecedented, it couldn't scare him.
Cao Yi is the host of Jinling Channel's "Century Wind" program. This program is a cultural program, mostly based on interviews, talking about hot cultural phenomena, and it is indeed the most appropriate for her to conduct interviews with all the media present on behalf of her today.
"Student Chen, today I will conduct an exclusive interview with you on behalf of Jinling Terrace and on behalf of all the media present, is it okay?" Cao Yi sat on the interview seat arranged before, sitting next to Chen Xueqian, and next to her was Wu Yunming, naturally because he was the latest to discover the news.
Next to Chen Xueqian sat Bai Feifei, who was smiling and quietly being a flower girl.
"If you have anything to ask Mr. Cao, just ask!" Chen Xueqian hesitated for a long time before he came up with such a name. It also happened to echo the classmates called by the other party.
Cao Yi went straight to the topic: "Recently, there has been news on the Internet and many media that a 14-year-old literary genius in China has topped the best-selling list in Japan with a novel called "My Youth Love Story Is Really Problematic". Is this news true? Today, we have invited a young student who claims to be the author of this book to be a guest in this issue of Century Style, and welcome you, Chen Xueqian. ”
The camera turned to Chen Xueqian, and the scene remembered applause.
Chen Xueqian nodded at the camera and said, "Thank you!" ”
The camera pulled away and included Chen Xueqian and Cao Yi in the frame at the same time.
Cao Yi began the formal interview: "Student Chen, first of all, I want to ask you if you have a sample of this novel, and the author should be sent a sample issue when the novel is published, right?" The major domestic media have never met this book, and they are very curious. ”
After listening to what the other party said, Chen Xueqian nodded and said, "The sample is there, and I also brought it over!" ”
Saying that, Chen Xueqian took out a single book of "My Youth Love Story is Really Problematic" from the bag on the side.
Japanese light novels are printed in small sizes, and are also known as pocket books. So when Cao Yi took over this novel, her first reaction was that this book was a bit shabby!
Chen Xueqian seemed to guess what the other party thought, and explained: "Light novels are a popular and convenient reading material in Japan, which is known for being easy to carry, and the printing is very small, and there are not many single books, most of them appear in the form of magazines. The fact that "Spring Things" can be printed in a single book is a kind of recognition of the market. ”
Cao Yi lowered his head and flipped through the novel in his hand, then raised his head and asked a sharp question: "Not long ago, many media interviewed Mr. Chen, who claimed to be the father of the author of this book. What is the relationship between him and Mr. Chen? ”
"Ignorant life!" Chen Xueqian replied briefly and forcefully.
However, a Japanese television station interviewed a boy who was also 14 years old, and he also claimed to be the author of the book. And that Mr. Chen is the father of the other party. Asking this question, Cao Yi's eyes were as tightly fixed as a knife on Chen Xueqian.
"The other party is lying!" Chen Xueqian still said calmly.
There was a lot of talk below. The camera gives a close-up of the talking crowd at the right time.
The camera cuts back to Chen Xueqian and Cao Yi.
"So how do you prove that what you say is true?"
Almost at the same time as the question was raised, everyone was silent, and everyone wanted to hear how he was going to prove himself.
Chen Xueqian glanced at the people in front of him.
Some are curious, some are gloating, and some are disdainful.
Strange!
None of them felt that Chen Xueqian could prove himself strongly. Almost half of China has been arguing for a long time and has not yet been resolved, how can this little point that has not yet grown up be able to do it!
