Chapter 65: Spreading Fame (3)
The ancients were quite in awe of talented people, because all talented people were considered to be the 'Wenqu Xing' in the sky, which is also the habitual thinking of China for thousands of years.
confirmed that Zhang Yang, a young man in his twenties, was the author, and the reporters at the scene were also completely shocked, could this Zhang Yang really be the stars in the sky?
If it is said that it was written by a person over forty years old today, the reporter may also be shocked, after all, it can be comparable to the two books "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is enough to make people amazing.
But now the problem is that the book was written by a young man in his twenties, and the shock is infinitely magnified.
At the same time, these reporters and those who knew this information for the first time were also angry with a hint of envy and jealousy in their hearts.
"May I ask Zhang Yang, you graduated from that academy?"
"How old is Zhang Yang this year, and how is the family situation?"
“”
After the reporters digested the 'bomb', all kinds of questions rang out at the scene, many of which were completely incompatible with today's topic, and even many of them had already involved Zhang Yang's family.
"Everyone, today I only accept questions related to "Journey to the West", and I will not answer anything else."
Zhang Yang waved his hand and said strongly.
Zhang Yang knows the reporter's urine clearly, and once he answers these questions, it is estimated that it will become his own family problem.
"This reporter, excuse me!"
Zhang Yang pointed to a reporter who had a problem related to "Journey to the West" just now.
"May I ask Zhang Yang, does your book "Journey to the West" have an ideological source?"
The reason why Zhang Yang refers to this reporter is also to explain the source of the book "Journey to the West", after all, he is so young, if he doesn't tell the reason, it is easy to make people suspicious.
"For the book "Journey to the West", I carried out mythological processing on top of "Tang Dynasty Western Regions"
Zhang Yang answered the reporter's questions according to the background and source of the creation of "Journey to the West" in his mind, and also blocked the doubts of others.
Originally, there were still doubts about whether Zhang Yang was the real author of "Journey to the West", but after listening to Zhang Yang's words, they couldn't help but nod, Zhang Yang's statement is reasonable and can withstand scrutiny, so naturally there is no need to doubt it.
After answering the first reporter's question, Zhang Yang pointed to the reporter of the Northern Daily again, the other party is the largest newspaper in the north of the empire, and he wants to give some face.
"May I ask Zhang Yang, how do you feel about the evaluation of Mr. Qi and others?"
The reporter stood up and asked a question that made Zhang Yang regret for a while, he was making trouble for himself.
This is an ambiguous question, Zhang Yang is boasting when he says it is good, and if he says it badly, he is refuting the words of Qi Bai and others, and how to answer it has become a difficult problem.
"I don't have any qualifications to evaluate my own works, all the rights belong to the people present, and the ordinary people who see "Journey to the West" have such qualifications."
Zhang Yang's words are actually retreating as advancing, and he can't answer whether he is good or bad, so he simply gives the right to evaluate to the person who reads the book.
But even Qi Lao and others praised it, which can be compared to the two famous books of the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin, who dares to say that he is better than Qi Lao and others.
Zhang Yang sat down directly after answering the questions, obviously not wanting to answer the questions, and the two questions had already taken up a lot of time.
In the next press conference, Zhang Yang chose to avoid it as much as possible, unless it was a forced question, Zhang Yang would simply answer it.
It's not that Zhang Yang doesn't want to answer or chooses to keep a low profile, but the people on the rostrum today are the youngest and have the lowest qualifications, and if they show off again, they will be considered young and frivolous and ignorant of current affairs.
Zhang Yang's movements looked at Sun Hai and Qi Bai's eyes, and they were also affirmed by the two, although Zhang Yang was young, he knew how to advance and retreat, which was very good.
"Mr. Qi, will the empire publish "Journey to the West"?"
"Actually, we are ready, and it will be officially published in three days."
"Director Sun, may I ask if the recognition of "Journey to the West" by the Imperial Ministry of Culture means that it is officially recognized?"
"Yes, our Ministry of Culture has already reported to the empire, and we will get an answer in the near future."
“”
A press conference ended with a variety of questions from reporters, although the reporters present still had a lot of questions to ask, but after the host announced the end of the press conference, they had no choice but to explain the interview.
"The interview on stage is over, let's always interview in private."
Many reporters put away the tools of the interview while thinking to themselves.
"Zhang Yang, sit with a few of our old people."
Qi Bai seemed to have guessed the thoughts of the reporters, and beckoned Zhang Yang to stay with a few of them, which disappointed many reporters who pricked up their ears.
"Xiao Sun, you go outside and wait, and send him back to where he lives when Zhang Yang comes out."
When going backstage with Zhang Yang and others, Qi Bai explained to Sun Hai in a low voice.
"Okay, I'll go."
Sun Hai also knew that this was Qi Bai's order to protect Zhang Yang, so he didn't dare to be careless.
Sun Hai knew that after today's press conference, Zhang Yang would definitely become a celebrity in the empire, and at the same time, he would also be pushed to the forefront.
Zhang Yang himself, Qi Bai and Sun Hai and others are not very worried, since the contact with Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang has always given everyone a mature and stable feeling, and he is also very measured in doing things, knowing how to advance and retreat.
What a few people are afraid of is that those reporters outside will not let go of Zhang Yang, you must know that in order to get the news, reporters will definitely chase and intercept Zhang Yangwei, and even some small actions in private will also be used.
If Sun Hai takes Zhang Yang back, then the reporter will be afraid of Sun Hai's identity, not to mention that it will completely eliminate the reporter's private actions, at least it will be reduced by more than half.
You must know that although the Ministry of Culture cannot directly manage television and news and other matters, it is responsible for supervising it, and if the Ministry of Culture makes an opinion on a certain news organization, the General Information Administration will absolutely not dare to turn a blind eye, especially since Sun Hai is also the director of the Ministry of Culture's office.
This is why Qi Bai specially ordered Sun Hai to send Zhang Yang back.
"Thank you Grandpa Qi and all your grandfathers for their love for me, and thank you Uncle Sun."
After Zhang Yang figured out Qi Bai and Sun Hai's plans, it would be false to say that he was not moved, you must know that several people did this without any interests in it.
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless!
