Chapter 172: There is no good feast
Fu Mingde asked Xiao Fei and Liu Zelai to his office to have a conversation, and when he looked at the time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
He said: "Xiao Fei, tonight I specially invited a few senior teachers in the circle for you, everyone will go to the garden restaurant to sit together, let's go now." ”
"Okay."
Xiao Fei agreed to come down.
Garden Restaurant is a well-known high-end restaurant in Central Plains City, and many units regard it as their best choice for receiving VIPs.
Therefore, going to the garden to eat has become a kind of glory in Zhongyuan City.
Xiao Fei didn't expect that Fu Mingde would invite the senior teachers in the circle to meet him.
Several people rushed to the garden restaurant by car.
This is a large garden-style courtyard, with several small European-style buildings dotted in it, and the environment is very beautiful.
Fu Mingde had already booked a private room on the third floor of Building No. 1, came downstairs and asked the waiter, and learned that no one had come to the invited VIPs, so he proposed to wait at the door and wait for him.
Xiao Fei and Liu Zelai naturally would not object.
The three of them sat down on the couch in the doorway and looked at the door with the rest of their eyes.
It was already dark early in October, and before six o'clock the night had already fallen.
The first to come was Zhang Yi, the chairman of the Provincial Writers Association.
This is a middle-aged and elderly man with a slender figure, high cheekbones, a serious face, and always seems to be thoughtful, at least in his fifties.
Fu Mingde introduced Xiao Fei to Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi laughed when he saw Xiao Fei and said, "It's not much different from what I imagined!" Young Toshihiko should look like this, I like what you write. Better than what I wrote wow! I'm going to learn from you! ”
As he spoke, he shook hands with Xiao Fei cordially.
"Thank you, Chairman Zhang. You've won the prize, and I'm really ashamed! Xiao Fei said modestly.
"Haha! The last thing I love as a person is to praise others. I like to be honest, and seeing you, I just began to really understand the meaning of the afterlife! Zhang Yi laughed loudly and heartily.
Fu Mingde saw that Zhang Yi and Xiao Fei were in love, so he asked Xiao Fei to accompany Zhang Yi to the private room first.
He and Liu Zelai continued to wait for others downstairs.
The second one came was Zhang Mingyuan, the dean of the Hexi Provincial Academy of Literature, who was accompanied by Liu Zelai to the private room.
The last one to come was Yuan Yanyan, the vice president of the Hexi Provincial College of Letters.
When Yuan Yan saw Fu Mingde, he said, "Brother Mingde, I'm sorry, my work was a little delayed, so I came a little late." ”
Fu Mingde smiled and said, "Brother Yanyan, I'm the same." It didn't take long to arrive. ”
"Oh? What about the others? Yuan Yan asked.
"It's all upstairs." Fu Mingde said.
"That Xiao Fei is also upstairs?" Yuan Yan asked, he was a little displeased, as a junior, standing downstairs to greet the elders is the proper etiquette, right?
He thinks that he is a much more intelligent existence than Xiao Fei, and most of the time in the past, many junior characters or people with lower status than him also behaved respectfully in front of him.
When we met for the first time this time, Xiao Fei, a junior, actually disrespected himself so much. Naturally, he was a little upset.
"Yes, I'm talking to Chairman Zhang, and Chairman Zhang seems to appreciate him very much! The two talked happily! Fu Mingde said.
Yuan Yan didn't know who Fu Mingde invited tonight, and I heard that Zhang Yi was there. He frowned.
"Who else but Zhang Yi?" Yuan Yan asked.
"And Dean Zhang Mingyuan." Fu Mingde said, inviting Yuan severely. "Let's go upstairs together, everyone eats and drinks."
Yuan Yan followed Fu Mingde upstairs with a dark face.
Xiao Fei was talking warmly to Zhang Yi and Zhang Mingyuan.
As a literary critic. Zhang Mingyuan's vision is obviously very profound, and he has carefully read "The Fish Walking on Land". I've been busy writing a review article lately.
Now that I have met Xiao Fei, the original author, I naturally want to discuss it warmly.
Xiao Fei was surprised to find that Zhang Mingyuan's speech was like a scalpel, very accurate, and he was always able to grasp some of the core and flaws of his works at once, and give his own unique and eye-catching interpretation.
Xiao Fei felt that talking to Zhang Mingyuan was really creepy, which made people tremble and worry.
This is the real critic!
Zhang Mingyuan is commenting on Xiao Fei's work.
And Zhang Yi smiled and interjected from time to time, which was also to the point.
Although Liu Zelai didn't speak, he was listening intently.
Several people in the room didn't notice that Fu Mingde and Yuan Yan walked into the private room.
Fu Mingde just smiled slightly, sat down, and turned around to signal Yuan Yan to sit down.
But Yuan Yan thought that Zhang Yi and the others were deliberately snubbing him, which made him even more annoyed, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Humph!"
Xiao Fei turned his head and glanced at it.
I saw a white and chubby guy with a gloomy face standing at the table with a sneer on his face.
He smiled and said to Zhang Mingyuan: "Teacher Zhang, another guest has arrived." ”
Zhang Mingyuan took a look, saw that it was Yuan Grim, and also pursed the corners of his mouth, stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Fei and said, "I haven't finished talking yet!" Why don't you let me swallow my other half back, right? Let's move on. ”
Although Zhang Mingyuan is the dean, he has not been squeezed out by Yuan Grim, and there has been a rumor from the top recently, saying that he wants to let Zhang Mingyuan come down and let Yuan Grim go up.
Although Zhang Mingyuan is not obsessed with this position, he can't tolerate a guy who doesn't do his job properly to sit in the position of the dean of the Upper School of Letters.
That's ridiculous.
Therefore, Zhang Mingyuan has not been very pretentious about Yuan Yan.
Zhang Yi had a relatively relaxed personality, and said to Yuan Yan with a smile: "Old Yuan, sit down, how can you see that your face is not very right?" ”
Yuan Yan sneered.
Is this a cynicism?
Hum! Old and pedantic guys, wait! Watch me take you down one by one, and then wait for me to sit in your seat and see how I settle accounts with you!
You look down on me now, and I'm going to trample you all under my feet another day!
Yuan Yan was vicious in his heart!
Then, slowly, slowly, he squeezed out a smile on his face, and greeted warmly: "Two old Zhang, you guys are early!" Hahaha! What are you talking about? Hahaha! Come on, let's continue to talk about it! ”
The guy talked and laughed, then sat down at the table, casually glanced at Xiao Fei and asked, "Who is this kid coming with?" ”
This is slapping Xiao Fei in the face in Chi Guodi!
Xiao Fei smiled slightly, thinking it was very interesting: Who is this person? How is it weird? Like a schizophrenic. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
