Chapter 146: Catch the ducks on the shelves
The measures taken by the Culture Publishing House have paid off, and the production pressure caused by "The Phantom of the Opera" through cooperation with foreign publishers is gradually decreasing, while sales are increasing. When the craze passed, people began to calm down and read the novel.
The Phantom of the Opera has been translated into dozens of languages in its previous life, and its charm is self-evident, and many readers have affirmed it after reading it, and the evaluation is no weaker than that of the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings series. People can't help but marvel at the talent of this young man, the three novels are of different genres and styles, but each one is so gripping.
Critics around the world have repeatedly interpreted Jung Sung-hyun's novels, and many plausible theories have been developed. In the end, there is a ridiculous and ridiculous statement that unexpectedly won the approval of most people, and everyone believes that it is because of the history of mental illness in his youth that Zheng Chengxian has created a spiritual world that is different from ordinary people.
There is only a thin line between a genius and a madman! This sentence is known to many people, and Jung Sung-hyun once again proved its accuracy.
A large number of foreign book lovers began to call Jung Sung-hyun Crazymaster - crazy master or crazy master.
After all, in just a few years, he wrote three classics that others may not be able to write in their lifetime, and it is not an exaggeration to call it 'crazy'.
Through this novel, Jung Sung-hyun established the status of 'the first person in the Korean literary world', and even some celebrities who have been famous for a long time have publicly expressed their admiration. Under this trend, the South Korean media's praise of Jung Sung-hyun has reached a point that makes people blush, at least he himself is embarrassed to read the newspaper now.
Jung Sung-hyun's alma mater, Dankook University, offered to hire him as a visiting professor, and there was no reason to refuse.
Koreans pay more attention to education and have great respect for teachers, and whether a person respects teachers has become an indispensable assessment criterion in Koreans' professional life.
Jung Sung-hyun gladly accepted the offer, anyway, it was just a guest professor who didn't need to go to class often. It's enough to go and give a presentation once in a while.
Since returning from CCM last time, Jung Sung-hyun felt that he lacked too much in terms of life and company management, so he stayed in the company every day to learn from Shin Seok-hwan.
"Chengxian!" Shin Seok-hwan pushed open the door and walked in, with a proud look on his face.
Zheng Chengxian raised his head from the pile of documents and wiped the corners of his mouth blankly: "What's the matter, Brother Shi Huan?" ”
"Dankook University has called and invited you to give a lecture at the beginning of next month!"
"Oh~ Okay!" Zheng Chengxian agreed, which he had already thought of when he accepted the offer before.
It's impossible to be a white-collar professor and don't do anything, right? In fact, he was already ready when he first accepted the offer. The delay in notification made him think that he was thinking too much.
"Do you really want to say yes?" Shen Shihuan confirmed, with a wicked smile on his face.
Seeing him like this, Zheng Chengxian was a little hesitant, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like a good thing, and he asked hesitantly, "What?" Can't you say yes? ”
"It's not that you can't, it's just that you have to be prepared! The school said that the number of participants this time might be a bit large," Shen Shihuan replied lightly.
"How many?"
"The school said that considering your current fame and status, the venue for the lecture was set in the 'Confucian Master Hall', you used to be a student there, you should be no stranger to this place, right?"
'Where?' Confucian Master'!? Hearing this name, Zheng Chengxian stood up with a pout, and the documents on the table were scattered all over the place.
With a capacity of 10,000 students, the Confucian Hall is the largest auditorium at Dankook University. It is not usually used by people. Only some very heavyweights will open the venue, such as the famous director 'Jang Yimou' of the big country next door, Park Geun-hye, who was the leader of the Grand National Party, and the current president Lee Myung-bak......
The opening of the Confucian Hall this time shows that Dankook University is really full of sincerity, but Jung Sung-hyun is under a lot of pressure.
Leaning on the table, he looked at Shen Shihuan in disbelief: "It's really Confucianism?" ”
"It's really a Confucian master!"
"No kidding, did you hear me wrong? It can accommodate more than 10,000 students, and only big names can give speeches! Despite Shin Seok-hwan's affirmative answer, Jung Sung-hyun still couldn't believe it, when would he be able to enjoy the treatment of big names like Lao Mouzi and Park Geun-hye?
"12,000 students, to be exact. That's what the school told me! Shin Seok-hwan expressed satisfaction with Jung's shock.
He has long had an opinion about this boss who is lazy all day, and he comes and leaves the latest every day. I don't care about anything. Two days ago, he took the initiative to find himself and threatened to learn company management, which made him very happy.
But within a few days, he reverted to his old state, and returned to his previous lazy and tired state, like a skinny dog without bones. When he came in just now, he could see it clearly, and when Zheng Chengxian raised his head, there were obvious traces of saliva at the corner of his mouth.
"Can I refuse?" Jung Sung-hyun made a decision immediately, just kidding! More than 10,000 people listen to my nonsense?
"Can't! You agreed to the offer. You can't say no! Otherwise, he will be laughed at" Shen Shihuan's face was full of schadenfreude, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he seemed to be working hard.
Zheng Chengxian walked back and forth behind the desk uneasily, the documents under his feet were completely unconcerned, and he was irritable like a bear that had been robbed of honey.
"How do I get back to college?" Shin Seok-hwan didn't take Jung Sung-hyun's distress to heart at all. As the saying goes, it's not a big deal to watch the excitement.
Zheng Chengxian stopped and looked at him with a bitter face: "How else can I go back!" You said it too. I can't refuse! ”
Although he was prepared in his heart, Shen Shihuan still felt a little surprised, he adjusted his mentality so quickly?
"Are you really going to speak in front of so many people? I heard that there are not only students, but also lecturers and professors! There is a good chance that there will also be celebrities and the media! ”
This did not scare him, South Korean stars like to run to college very much, and every star relish about his academic qualifications.
Hearing this, Zheng Chengxian's eyelids kept beating, and his tense face trembled for a while: "What can I do if I don't plan to!" It's already like this, and you can't go back, right? It's a big deal, grandpa fights with them! ”
Zheng Chengxian vented and seemed to say a word in Chinese.
"What do you say?" Shen Shihuan said he didn't understand.
"It's okay" Jung Sung-hyun waved his hand: "You tell Dankook University, I will be there on time!" ”
No matter how many sticks there are, they are still sticks, and they have the right to stand in the cornfield and give a speech!
Zheng Chengxian has a kind of unsparing quality, many times he looks wilted and cowered, but once things are over, he becomes excited. There is also a saying for this state that 'people go crazy'.
Since he can't hide from it, he will let it out, anyway, he has the name of 'master' on his body, and ordinary people don't dare to question it casually. Even if there is an old man like Kim Yun-seok, he is not afraid, and one old man is to drive two old men.
Shen Shihuan nodded and went out to reply, he really admired this little boss in his heart, and if he let himself speak in front of more than 10,000 students and teachers, he would never dare.
A great writer deserves to be a great writer, but he has goods in his stomach!
After Shen Shihuan left, Zheng Chengxian sat down in the wide boss's chair, muttering to himself with remorse and irritation on his face:
"It's a big fun! How is this called the old man? (To be continued.) )
