This winter vacation, for Han Han, is painful and happy.

Since he won the first prize in the first New Concept Essay Competition, he was signed by Hanmo Culture Company, and Hanmo Company asked him for a feature.

Even, the company set the direction and content of his writing: youth literature, write about the content he is most familiar with, write about the perception of Chinese education by hard-pressed teenagers, and express the confusion and irritability, happiness and sadness of adolescence.

Hanmo also gave him a very meaningful title: "Triple Gate".

What does the title mean?

According to Liu Zelai, general manager of Hanmo Company, he explained that the triple gate alludes to a child who goes through the three thresholds of primary school, junior high school and high school, and finally can jump into the dragon gate and enter the university stage.

This explains the taste of the look.

After receiving the New Concept Award, Han Han's heart was like a wild horse galloping, and he could never take it back.

Hanmo Company has opened another possible door for him: as long as he writes hard, he can also get ahead without having to study hard and go to university.

Han Han, who was fifteen years old, was moved.

When he got home, he told his father that he would immediately devote himself to the writing of the novel he signed with Hanmo.

Han Han signed a contract with Hanmo Company, and his father naturally knew that Han Han was still underage, and if he wanted to sign a contract, he had to get the consent of his guardian.

The reason why Han's father agreed to his son to sign this agreement was also out of desperation.

The son is stubborn and not too concerned about studying, and in the future, he will be admitted to a university that does not enter the stream, and it will be very difficult to work hard in society.

Now that there is such a good opportunity, Hanmo is also a relatively reliable company. Then you might as well let your son give it a try.

Now, my son says he's going to start writing right away. He also expressed his strong support.

Not only that, Han's father also gave advice to his son. I made a lot of suggestions and gave detailed guidance.

Han's father believes that his son's talent is there, and his writing skills are completely up to standard.

The only obstacle to writing a long story now is that my son may not be able to handle it enough.

Fortunately, Hanmo Company also gave his son a booklet called a long-form creative guide, and Han's father felt that it was well written after reading it, so he asked Han Han to study it carefully.

And after Han Han read this book, he was also greatly inspired.

After some preliminary data collection and sorting. After writing the outline of the novel, Han Han officially devoted himself to the writing of "Triple Gate" in December 1997.

He was passionate and full of emotions.

He writes in class and at home after class.

When I write about the climax or what I think I am proud of, I like to read it to my father or classmates.

Naturally, the teachers and students in the school soon knew that Han Han was writing a novel, and the novel was not badly written.

After all, the New Concept Essay Contest is a sensational competition. Han Han was able to win the first prize in the competition, which was also regarded as an honor by the school.

If it is said that Han Han's nationality was unknown before, now. He also became a celebrity on campus.

His teacher talked to Han Han, hoping that he could put his writing aside for the time being, after all. At his age, he is about to face the high school entrance examination. If you don't study hard, you won't be able to get into a key high school. It's hard to go to a good university in the future.

Han Han naturally couldn't listen to this.

He unmistakably told the teacher that he was not interested in going to school, and that he was not interested in going to university, but that he just wanted to write novels well, hoping to make a name for himself in it.

In desperation, the teacher finally gave up on persuading Han Han and classified him as an incorrigible student.

There is also a lot of discussion in the school about Han Han's writing of novels.

The vast majority of people think that Han Han is not doing his job, and people think that a child who is only 15 years old can read a long story written by him?

It's even more stupid to write a novel that affects your studies.

Some people even sarcastically said that Han Han had gone mad, this child was ruined by literature, and he didn't think about any future in this life.

Han Han worked hard to write in such a harsh environment.

He wasn't slow to write.

He can always write four or five thousand words a day.

In this way, by the time New Year's Day arrived in 98, Han Han had already written a manuscript of 150,000 or 60,000 words.

Originally, according to his assumptions, his long story might only be 1780,000 words. The people from Hanmo Company told him that 178,000 words could already produce a book with a good thickness.

However, after a month of writing, he had accumulated a thick draft, but found that his novel was getting longer and longer, and there seemed to be a lot more to write.

This made Han Han a little anxious.

He had read a lot of Xiao Fei's news in the newspaper.

According to the news, Xiao Fei is a fast gunner, Xiao Fei once wrote more than 16,000 words a day with a pen, and he can also ensure extremely high quality.

There is also news that Xiao Fei began to use the computer to write at an early age, which greatly improved his speed, and he once used the computer to write more than 20,000 words a day.

And what about yourself?

It took me as many as four or five hours a day for a month to write more than 150,000 words.

The gap is still a bit big.

Han Han took Xiao Fei as the target to catch up.

He gritted his teeth and decided that during the Spring Festival, he must finish writing "Triple Gate", and at the same time as finishing writing, he must seriously revise the final draft.

Therefore, during the winter vacation of 98, Han Han stayed at home almost all day, he didn't go to his classmates to play, his relatives, or play.

He spends more than ten hours a day writing his novels.

Finally, on February 1, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, he finished revising his novel.

He wrote a little more than 200,000 words for the final version of "Triple Gate".

He gave the final draft to his father for review.

After reading it, Han's father thought that his son wrote very well, the novel was very attractive, very youthful, the language was playful, the plot was vivid, and although the pen was slightly suspected of holding a shelf, it was quite mature.

However, Father Han still thinks that some places may be better modified.

He made a number of recommendations.

And Han Han also accepted his father's suggestion, and the father and son began a new round of revisions.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Han's father received a call from a friend, who said that the results of the first Lu Award had come out, and Xiao Fei lived up to expectations and won the first place in the prose award and won the first Lu Award.

put down the phone, and Han's father mentioned it to Han Han: "Han Han, your idol Xiao Fei, who has won the Lu Xun Literature Award at the age of 21." ”

Han Han is also very concerned about the Lu Award.

His father's words made him stunned, this news was too exciting for him.

I am now 15 years old, and in six years, will I be able to catch up with Xiao Fei's height?

He was a little confused.

However, on his face, he still smiled and said, "Dad, isn't it reasonable for Xiao Fei to win the award?" ”

"How can it be reasonable? This is the highest literary award in the country, so many literary masters in China, especially in my country, there is a prose tradition, there are many prose writers, and there are many good writers, Xiao Fei can win the Lu Award in the sub-category of prose, and he has also been recommended by the judges with full votes, which is not easy. Father Han said.

"I think Xiao Fei's prose is very novel, he excavates the philosophy and deep meaning of life from the things that people are used to in their daily lives, and he gives new interest to old imagery, which few other prose writers in China can achieve, so it is not surprising that Xiao Fei won the award." Han Han said.

Han's father glanced at his son and couldn't help but say, "Han Han, do you plan to write serious literature or popular literature in the future?" What kind of literary path do you want to take? ”

Han Han was silent for a moment, and blurted out: "The traditional literary circle has been occupied by too many mediocre talents, so I won't make fun of it, but, Dad, what kind of literature do you say is serious, and what kind of literature is popular?" I think that the direction of my efforts should be to win the love of the majority of readers, only by gaining the favor of readers, then can I become famous, can I sell more books, can I achieve ultimate success, or, to strive to be a young opinion leader, it is not bad, right? ”

This is Han Han's plan for his life.

It may be surprising to hear such mature words from the mouth of a teenager to be heard by outsiders.

However, Han's father often discussed with his son, and he didn't know how much he heard similar words, but he was used to it.

"Okay then, I won't make any restrictions on you, Han Han, you just know which direction you should work in." Han's father said.

After his father left, Han Han fell into a burst of anxiety and confusion.

The news that Xiao Fei won the Lu Prize really hit him.

Although he is at a rebellious age, and although he has always been proud of his talent, he still feels a sense of powerlessness in the face of Xiao Fei, who has already achieved remarkable results in the field of literature.

Perhaps, I really have to consider taking a completely different path, right?

On the 10th of the first lunar month, various newspapers in Shanghai spoke out their voices on the newly released Lu Award and Xiao Fei's award.

The supplements and review pages of various newspapers also have many articles about the discussion of Xiao Fei's award.

Among them, the supplement of the Morning News specially invited Han Han to write an article.

The title of Han Han's essay is: My literary tutor Xiao Fei.

This manuscript was specially commissioned by the newspaper's supplement editor to Han Han, because the editor knew that Han Han had a relationship with Xiao Fei.

In this short article, Han Han recalled the process of meeting and interacting with Xiao Fei, and between the lines, he was full of gratitude and reverence.

He said that it was Xiao Fei who brought him into the door of literature, and he was his lifelong literary teacher.

This manuscript is so outstanding in the full page of indignant criticism and criticism......

Yes, many people are very angry that Xiao Fei won the Lu Award. (To be continued.) )
