In July and August, Guangdong is the hottest time of the year.

The sun had long since risen high in the sky, scorching the earth violently. Even if it's the morning sun, after being exposed to the sun for a few minutes, the skin is hot.

The last day of July was Saturday. If there is nothing special to do, in the morning, when you see the sun outside, everyone is reluctant to go out.

House of Ringu.

Lin Yutong dressed up early, cleaned up, and waited for her grandfather Lin Guzhi to go out with her.

"Grandpa, have you gotten, it's going to be too late if you don't go!" Lin Yutong looked anxious.

"It's coming, it's coming!" Lin Guzhi ran out of the bathroom, he was agile, he didn't have the posture of an old man at all, he signaled to Lin Yutong apologetically, and then without saying a word, the two went out together.

In the hall of the Lin family, only Lin Guzhi's son and daughter-in-law were left looking at each other.

"Dad, what's wrong? It's rare that we are at home on the weekend, and we are not lively together, so why are we in a hurry to go outside? Yutong too, I'm such a big person sitting here, she didn't seem to see it, and she went out without saying hello! The daughter-in-law of the Lin family complained to her husband with some complaints.

The son of the Lin family smiled bitterly and said: "You can be content, I am still her father, don't she also exist for me!" Now in the eyes of the two of them, there is only one person. Who got his new book on the market today! ”

"Who?" The daughter-in-law of the Lin family is a little unclear.

"Su Wen!" Her husband explained to her that his father and daughter were obsessed with Su Wen, saying that the two of them regarded Su Wen as an idol, and as long as there was a new work, they would not let it go.

After hearing this, the daughter-in-law looked surprised: "Is it so exaggerated?" Isn't it just a little writer for middle school students, is it worth it? ”

"Shh The husband made a silent motion. Be careful to say, "Don't say this to their face, or they'll be polite to you!" ”

The daughter-in-law was angry: "Is there still a heavenly reason?" ”

The husband made a shaking motion: "In front of idols, any relatives are fake." Look at it, their grandchildren went out to buy those poetry collections. There must be more than two copies, maybe they will buy one for each of us, saying that it will contribute to the sales of Su Wen's works! ”

The daughter-in-law was completely speechless.

Let's talk about the grandchildren of the Lin family who have gone out.

Lin Yutong walked in front and kept beckoning Lin Guzhi to hurry up, for fear that the new books would be sold out late.

Lin Guzhi calmed her down and said, "Xiaotong, don't worry, this is a poetry collection, and there are not many people who buy poetry collections now." We're sure we'll be able to buy it, and it's not going to be out of stock like Romeo and Juliet and A Doll's House. ”

Lin Yutong couldn't wait to say: "I'm not afraid that I won't be able to buy books, I just want to see how the new poems in "If Life Is Only as First Seen" are written. I asked Su Wen, and he said that more than a dozen poems in the poetry collection are new works, which have not yet been published, and they only meet everyone for the first time in the poetry collection. ”

Lin Guzhi was also excited when he heard this: "Then hurry up, I can't wait to see Su Wen's new poems." I've said before that in his works. My favorite is poetry. He should concentrate on writing poetry, and there is no need to make any drama or anything like that. ”

Lin Yutong rolled his eyes: "Grandpa." You also know that there are not many people who buy poetry, and a person who makes a living from words, and he doesn't need to have a talent for drama, but wants people to hang himself on the tree of poetry, isn't it embarrassing for others! ”

Lin Guzhi sighed: "In these years, everything is looking at money. I can't even feel at ease with literary creation! It's just that this is the trend of the times, and no one can reverse it. ”

Lin Yutong didn't dare to answer, for fear that his grandfather would be a lesson again.

When the two arrived at the largest bookstore near their home, it was almost time to eat.

Just as Ringuzhi had predicted. Even if Su Wen is now famous, and it can be said that he is in full swing in Guangdong, if other new works are listed, once the preparation is insufficient, it will definitely cause the phenomenon of being out of stock. However, "If Life Is Only as First Seen" is just a collection of poems, too literary and artistic, and the audience is much smaller in this era.

As soon as I inquired, the people in the bookstore said that "If Life Is Only as First Seen" was newly released and still in stock.

The two of them were happy to look for books, but there was also something that Lin Gu expected: the goods were there, but there were many people who bought them, and they had to queue up!

In front of the bookshelf, there were seven or eight people lined up, all asking the salesman to show them the book "If Life Is Only as First Seen".

Listening to their discussions, some people really like poetry, some people have read Su Wen's other works and feel that they need to support them, and some people need to support and encourage them out of their good feelings for local writers.

The grandson of the Lin family soon got the completed volume of "If Life Is Only as First Seen".

They think the cover is very tasteful, it is a simple landscape brush and ink painting, the distant view is the vast river, and there is a pavilion on the side, and there are people in the pavilion, there are men and women, as if they are saying goodbye, and it seems to be lingering.

Everything looks ethereal and has a hazy beauty.

Those who are familiar with Su Wen know that "if life is only as first seen" is a classic sentence in his words, I used to read it in the newspaper, and now it is printed in lead in a booklet, and the feeling is very different.

Even if it is familiar, there are still emotions of anticipation and excitement welling up in my heart.

This booklet is very thin, only about 100 pages in total, not much thicker than the play, and the price is 8 Chinese yuan.

The price is neither high nor low.

"It's worth it." Lin Guzhi rubbed the font on the book, and felt that this publishing house was still relatively kind, beautifully printed, and the price was medium, and it did not deceive readers.

The only thing that displeased them was that there were too few poems in it, only more than forty in total, and most of them had already been read by heart, which was regrettable.

When I opened it, the poetry collection was only divided into two parts, one was new poems and the other was ancient poems. New poems come first, and old poems come last. The new poem begins with "Broken Chapters", which attracts attention from the beginning and makes people indulge in the charm of words.

"Magnolia Flower Order" is a work of pressure in ancient poetry, the beginning of the sentence "If life is only as first seen", it makes people regret a little melancholy, and at the end of melancholy, readers can't help but sigh, and they have imprinted Su Wen's name into their minds, and they can't help but applaud.

The scene similar to the grandfather and grandson of the Lin family is constantly staged among those who get the poetry collection "If Life Is Only as First Seen" to read.

For this work, everyone's attitude is different, and some praise it. Some are disdainful, some are unhappy, and some seem to have found some kind of successful model.

"Smack!"

Xie Kun smashed the "Life Is Only as First Seen" in his hand on his son Xie Tianxing's desk, scaring his son who was immersed in reading.

"Dad, what are you doing......" Xie Tianxing was locked at home by Xie Kun these days to study, and taught him that the tiger father has no dogs. As the son of a great playwright, he can't mess around like he used to be, let him devote himself to studying, and he will be able to make a living from words in the future.

Xie Tianxing complained and complained, but he didn't dare to be disobedient, he could only obey, and he hated Su Wen very much in his heart, he knew that his father was completely stimulated by Su Wen.

Su Wen, who is as young as Xie Tianxing. Now he has made a great name in the literary world, almost catching up with those writers who have been famous for many years.

Compared with his son, it is difficult for Xie Kun to think about it.

"I read all the articles in this book and ponder it a few times!" Xie Kun said like an explanation of the task.

Xie Tianxing picked up the book, looked at the title of the book first, felt familiar, and was about to say something, when he swept Su Wen's name at a glance. Suddenly, like getting a hot potato, he threw the book on the table with a snort.

It's Su Wen again!

Xie Tianxing's brain hurts. He found that his eight characters seemed to be incompatible with Su Wen, as long as there was a place for the other party, he was not satisfied.

Now, here it is again - his father actually asked him to read all Su Wen's articles once, and he has to think about it lively, isn't this torturing him Thank God!

"Don't be in a hurry to refute!" Xie Kun saw his son's unhappiness. Quickly explained, "I let you see this poetry book for a reason. What's with? Of course, there are reasons why these poems are well written, and I have to admit that Su Wen is talented in poetry. For the time being, it seems to be much higher than the drama. These poems are worthy of any literati's taste. I let you read it to make you learn. What to learn? I've found a pattern that allows you to succeed early. ”

"A model for success?" Xie Tianxing became interested, "Dad, what mode, say it quickly!" ”

Xie Kun glanced at his son and said, "I think it's a little difficult to let you take the playwright's route, because of the existence of your father and me." No matter how well you write, people only say that you are my Xie Kun's son, and they won't pay attention to your works! As for the novel, that's too demanding and not quite for you. There is also prose or something, it is difficult to produce classics, and it is difficult to become famous. I've found that only poetry can make you famous quickly. ”

"What do you say?" Xie Tianxing was puzzled.

Xie Kun said: "Poetry is too mysterious, and it is difficult to write and difficult to write, but when you master a pattern, it is easy to say." Especially for new poems, you have also discovered that the more new poems over the years, the more they are pretentious, the more people will applaud them. You can find some ways to write more from poetry creation, and with my help, whether it is published or published, it will not be a problem. When the time comes, you'll be able to earn the title of a poet. Become a poet first, become famous, and then develop others, this is my route plan for your future. ”

"Seems to make some sense." Xie Tianxing said.

Xie Kun snorted: "This is a little pattern I figured out from Su Wen, didn't he start with poetry at the beginning." The song "Farewell to Half the Bridge" won the admiration of the Venerable Master Donglian, and he joined the Poetry Society and became a great poet. I think you can also succeed with this model. ”

Xie Tianxing was immediately deflated when he heard this, why did it seem that he was going to become Su Wen's second?

"Go for it! You are my Xie Kun's son, and your starting point is much higher than others, I will not allow you to fail! Xie Kun patted his son on the shoulder, encouraged him, and then left.

In the room, Xie Tianxing slowly picked up the poetry collection "If Life Is Only as First Seen".

In the next few days, many people got a copy of "If Life Is Only as First Seen" for various purposes, which caused the sales of this poetry collection to climb steadily!

A week passed quickly.

As the president of the Spring and Autumn Publishing House, Fang Chengshi got the sales data of the first week of "If Life Is Only as First Seen" as soon as possible.

The weekly sales of Su Wen's first poetry collection are officially released! (To be continued......)
