"Secretary Fang, hello! Didn't bother you, did you? ”

"Xiao Dong, it's okay, you say."

"Secretary Fang, that's the case, after some persuasion from me just now, Xiao Fei has agreed to transfer his file relationship back to Hexi after graduation."

"Oh, nice! Xiao Dong, you did a good job! ”

"Secretary Fang, Xiao Fei said that he just wants to be named in the Provincial Writers Association, and he doesn't want to take a real job."

"That's nothing, as long as people return to our Hexi, that's fine. By the way, Xiao Dong, I don't think we should add more weight and let the Provincial Writers Association arrange a vice chairman position for Xiao Fei? ”

"Secretary Fang, I think it should be, just winning the Lu Award is worth a vice chairman of the Writers' Association."

"Then you say hello to Chairman Zhang and let him go through the procedure! By the way, this news must be released as soon as possible, after Xiao Fei won the award, I estimate that there will be many places vying for his ownership, such as the capital, it is very likely to give Xiao Fei a special talent treatment or something, and strive to keep him in the capital. ”

"Secretary Fang is wise, then I'll call Chairman Zhang immediately."

After Dong Liubin said goodbye to Xiao Fei, he drove on the road alone, and he began to call Fang Haotian.

The things that Secretary Fang is particularly concerned about, now that there are results, it is natural to let the leaders know for the first time.

The call goes through.

Dong Liubin found that Secretary Fang was really happy, and even issued instructions: to let the Provincial Writers Association go through the process and give Xiao Fei the title of vice chairman of the Provincial Writers Association.

The vice chairman of the Provincial Writers' Association is actually a retreat position.

This position has no real power, but is used to place people who have made great contributions to the cause of literature. For example, in a province, there are a few successful writers who are almost all vice presidents of the provincial writers' association.

The vice chairman of the Provincial Writers' Association does not have to sit on duty. Not responsible to anyone.

If there is any major event in the Writers' Association on weekdays, then go over and listen. It is good to express your own opinions and opinions, and to consult with them.

It's just that. Xiao Fei was only 21 years old, and he became the vice chairman of the Provincial Writers Association, which can be regarded as breaking a record.

Generally speaking, the vast majority of writers must be at least in their thirties to receive this title.

Dong Liubin himself recalled that when he was 21 years old, he seemed to be still struggling to get into college. He was born in the countryside, and by the time the Cultural Revolution ended and the college entrance examination was resumed, he was already 21 years old.

And Xiao Fei, at the age of 21. It has embarked on the road to success.

He shook his head, feeling that his life was not comparable to Xiao Fei's.

He picked up the phone and dialed Zhang Yi's mobile phone again.

Secretary Fang gave instructions, which naturally had to be conveyed in place as soon as possible, and he must have informed Zhang Yi and asked Zhang Yi to go to Zhang Luo, Secretary General of the Provincial Writers Association, to make this matter.

Zhang Yi was also having a small gathering with a few old friends this night.

The gatherers were Zhang Mingyuan, former dean of the Provincial Academy of Literature, Fu Mingde, editor-in-chief of the Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House, and several other well-known writers in the province.

The meeting place was at a restaurant near the Provincial Writers' Association.

Zhang Yi was a little depressed.

Originally, he felt that he should be able to win this year's Lu Xun Literature Award, and the short story he participated in the selection can be regarded as his proud work in recent years.

But. The award still passed by him.

This made him very disappointed.

He attaches great importance to this first Lu Prize, after all, the Lu Prize is the nominal highest national literary award, and it belongs to the same level as the Mao Award.

In the eyes of Zhang Yi and many writers, the Mao Award is the highest peak of life. To be able to climb this peak in this life is naturally the best.

If you can't climb it, then don't complain.

But Zhang Yi has carefully studied the Lu Prize. He found that the odds of winning this award were obviously several times higher than that of the Mao Award. So, a few years ago, when I learned that the Lu Award was about to be opened. He put a lot of effort into writing a few short and medium stories.

He's just going to win the prize!

However, with so much effort, it still failed to achieve its goal......

Zhang Mingyuan was also a little depressed.

After he learned that his review was nominated for the Lu Award, he was also excited, and it was enough to win a Lu Award in this life.

Therefore, Zhang Mingyuan also pays attention to the news of the Lu Award all the time.

He knew that the Lu Award would start voting for the award as soon as it was after the Lunar New Year, and he had been waiting for the good news to come a few days ago.

However, the newspaper news came out, and the list of winners of the Lu Award was revealed.

His name is not on it.

Looking at the long list of winners, he felt so good...... It's a disappointment that so many winners didn't even get their turn.

Other powerful authors in the province simply didn't even get the nomination this time, so naturally they have long lost hope, but it's nothing.

Fu Mingde, editor-in-chief of the Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House, knew that Zhang Yi and Zhang Mingyuan would not be in a good mood, so he arranged this party and called all the good friends in the circle to have a drink, talk, and comfort the two.

"To be honest, I was very disappointed by the Lu Awards, the awards were too indiscriminate, those awards were sent out as if they didn't want money, good guys, more than 70 awards were issued at once, this is to ruin your own rhythm." Fu Mingde said, "Such a reckless award is actually not acceptable. ”

"Lao Fu, you can't say that, after all, the Lu Award is a literary award with the most awards, involving almost all categories of literature, and it is normal to have more awards, this time, Mingyuan and I did not win the award, which can only show that our level is not high enough, and if we continue to work hard, there is no need to complain." Zhang Yi smiled and waved his hand.

"Xiao Fei has helped our literary circles in Hexi Province gain a little face! If he hadn't won the award, we would have been shaved off in such a big Hexi, I think our Provincial Writers Association should say something to him and give him a celebration party or something, he is a member of our Provincial Writers Association! Zhang Mingyuan proposed.

"Mingyuan is right, Xiao Fei should have a celebration party, I don't know if he has reported to school now, I think, I'll call him tomorrow to ask." Zhang Yi said.

Zhang Yi was a little sour and envious of Xiao Fei's award.

However, he is still relatively open-minded, and he also admires Xiao Fei very much, Xiao Fei can win the award, and he is really happy for him.

"Chairman Zhang, Dean Zhang, I think that the Lu Award Jury is a bit reckless in giving Xiao Fei this award, Xiao Fei is still young and his thinking is not mature enough, maybe it will be better to give him this award more than ten years later." A writer said at this time.

When the writer spoke, there was a jealousy on his face that could not be concealed.

"Yes, yes! Although Xiao Fei's writing is really good, he is not necessarily much better than those old writers, and there is no certain standard for the quality of the article! After those old writers, give the award to Xiao Fei, which will make the old writers feel chilled! Another writer echoed the voice.

Zhang Yi smiled.

In the past two days, many people have told him similar arguments.

Zhang Mingyuan snorted: "It's still the old-fashioned way of arranging seniority, which of us is not deeply poisoned by the vulgar rule of seniority?" I think that Xiao Fei was awarded a good Lu Award this time! You can always kill this unwritten vulgar idea! ”

Zhang Mingyuan spoke very politely, which made the faces of the two complaining writers blush.

And Fu Mingde was also very unhappy with the words of those two.

Xiao Fei's collection of essays "The Sunshine Shines on Those Old Times" was published by the Provincial Literature and Art Society, and now, this collection of essays has won two literary awards in a row.

This honor also belongs to the Provincial Literature and Art Publishing House!

"The Sunshine Shines Those Old Times" won the Lu Award, which is a great thing for the Provincial Literature and Art Society, which indicates that this collection can be reprinted again and is a hot seller.

"Two teachers, it's always wrong to suppress young people, what age are they now? How many years have you been reforming and opening up? Still clinging to the old ideas, can it work? Look at what the literary world has degenerated now? If you can't keep up with the situation, it is possible that serious literature will be completely abandoned by readers! Writing well and being rewarded, that's a matter of course, and speaking with seniority is a sign of incompetence! Fu Mingde said with a sneer.

He spoke more politely than Zhang Mingyuan.

Zhang Yi saw the smell of gunpowder on the table, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, don't argue, no matter what, Xiao Fei's award is a great thing for our Hexi Province, this is a certainty!" And Xiao Fei's award also sends a signal, that is: you must be pious to literary creation! As long as you write your work well, I think the award will come naturally. In short, let's put our minds on the ground. ”

It was at this time that Zhang Yi received a call from Dong Liubin.

As soon as he saw that Dong Liubin's name was displayed on the screen, he was slightly surprised, how could Dong Liubin call him at this time?

He got up and left the table, went to the hallway outside the door, and answered the phone.

"Hello Minister Dong!"

"Hello Chairman Zhang!"

"Minister Dong called so late, what instructions do you have?"

"Chairman Zhang, I will give you an instruction on behalf of the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary Fang said, I hope you will go through the procedure immediately and give Xiao Fei the title of vice chairman of the Provincial Writers Association." Dong Liubin said.

Hearing Dong Liubin say this, Zhang Yi immediately understood, it seems that Secretary Fang has personally come forward to retain Xiao Fei, and Xiao Fei has made a certain promise.

"Okay, then the whole committee of our Provincial Writers Association will hold a meeting tomorrow and elect Xiao Fei as the vice chairman of the Provincial Writers Association." Zhang Yi agreed.

This is also a good thing for the Hexi Provincial Writers' Association.

The Writers' Association is officially established, and the province will also have a certain evaluation of the Provincial Writers' Association.

Keeping Xiao Fei in the Provincial Writers' Association will also add a lot of glory to Zhang Yi.

"Then, Chairman Zhang, I won't bother you. Good bye! ”

"Goodbye, Minister Dong!"

After making the call, Zhang Yi returned to the private room. Zhang Mingyuan glanced at him and asked, "Chairman Zhang, who called from you, seeing that there is joy between your eyebrows, there must be something good, right?" ”

"Haha! Teacher Mingyuan, it is indeed a good thing! ”

"What's good? Let's hear it. Fu Mingde asked.

"The secretary of the provincial party committee proposed to co-opt Xiao Fei as the vice chairman of the provincial writers' association." Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"Ahh When everyone heard this, they were all taken aback. (To be continued.) )
