(I felt that the previous chapter was not well written, so I added another paragraph today.) Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info)
Nankai University, Tianjin.
Xu Zhimo, who was dressed in a suit, was preaching his poetic concept to the teachers and students of the school: "There are really good people, really bad people, fake people and useless people. Poetry, there are also true poems, bad poems and similar poems. A really good person is the product of a personality that harmonizes the natural outpouring of character, and a really good poetic emotion harmonizes the natural outpouring of nature...... The essence of the poem, i.e., inspiration, spirituality, and experience. Whether it is from the eyebrows of the lover or from the singing of the country girl who bends over to grow vegetables, as soon as the inspiration comes, the trick comes out, and the result is poetry, beauty, so beautiful that even the poet himself is amazed......"
Xu Zhimo said on the stage, the students recorded in the audience, and from time to time someone raised his hand to raise doubts, and Xu Zhimo easily answered them one by one.
Well, Xu Zhimo is actually here to make money.
He is about to marry Lu Xiaoman, but his father Xu Shenru is firmly opposed. Later, he reluctantly agreed, but he made a request, that is, Xu Zhimo's marriage expenses must be solved by himself.
In order to raise money for the wedding, Xu Zhimo took jobs everywhere during this time, and had to give seven or eight speeches a month.
"Bang bang bang!" The audience applauded.
Xu Zhimo bent down to salute the audience, and was about to retreat, when suddenly a student stood up and asked, "Mr. Xu, can your poetry save the country?" ”
This is obviously to raise the bar to make trouble, Xu Zhimo's face is a little unsightly, he replied: "Although poetry cannot save the country, poets can be patriotic." ”
Another student asked: "What do you think about the education of Concubine Dao's haircut?" ”
Xu Zhimo said: "I deeply admire the sword concubine. ”
"The Southern Revolutionary Army is on a northern expedition, do you think they can succeed?" The student continued.
Xu Zhimo said: "Today I only talk about poetry, not politics and military. ”
Feeling that he couldn't stay any longer, Xu Zhimo bowed again, didn't give the students time to ask questions, and stepped back from the stage directly. Immediately, there were many fans who asked him to sign Xu Zhimo's poetry magazine, and his fanaticism was not weaker than that of chasing stars in later generations.
The summer weather was hot, Xu Zhi rubbed his sweat and left the school, and called a rickshaw to deliver the wedding card. He also has a few friends in Tianjin, and this trip happened to be invited in person.
As the rickshaw passed by the police department, Xu Zhimo saw a group of people gathered on the side of the road, where the sound of banging and banging could be heard.
"Well?"
"Nailing the donation box."
"It's the sword concubine!"
"The sword concubine is also here, everyone come and see!"
“……”
I saw Wen Xiu standing on the steps at the entrance of the police department, pointing to the wooden box that had just been fixed next to it, waving a small flag and saying: "This is the hope donation box, and every penny in it will be used to build education." As long as we all work together, one day, all children in China will be able to go to school......"
"Good!"
There were loud cheers, but no one was willing to donate money, and everyone gathered around to watch the excitement.
At this moment, a beggar with ragged clothes and dirty hair crowded into the crowd and shouted: "Let Jean, let Jean, I want to donate money!" ”
"Hahahaha, it's strange to ask Hanako to donate money too."
"If you want rice, do you donate the big steamed buns you asked for today?"
"Isn't this Feng San'er? Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling lost all the family property, and now he is still kind as a beggar? ”
“……”
"What's wrong with Hanako? What's wrong with Hanako! Feng San screamed at the top of his throat, "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and the master has donated it today!" ”
He took out more than a dozen copper plates from his arms, thought about it and stuffed a few more, and put the rest into the donation box.
The copper hit the wooden box, making a "chop, chop" sound, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Good!"
"Enough guys!"
Onlookers burst into cheers.
Feng San clasped his fists and saluted everyone, grinning and said, "I, Feng Laosan, am also a decent person today!" ”
"Stop!"
Xu Zhimo looked at the beggar who was covered with dirt and tattered clothes, and suddenly felt very touched, and had an urge to compose a poem. He took out his money bag, counted ten silver dollars, walked to the donation box, and carefully threw them in.
"Thank you, thank you, two gentlemen!" Wen Xiu bowed to the beggar and Xu Zhimo.
Feng San saw Wen Xiu saluting him, and hurriedly returned the salute, and then laughed: "See, the imperial concubine saluted Feng Laosan to me!" ”
"Okay, I'll donate a few too!" Someone responded immediately.
More than 20 people donated one after another, but they were all copper plates, which added up to one or two yuan at most.
There were also reporters taking pictures at the scene, Xu Zhimo didn't want to mix, so he silently returned to the rickshaw and let the driver continue to hurry. After visiting a few friends, Xu Zhimo rushed to the concession by car and went straight to the newspaper office of Ta Kung Pao.
Now that the serialization of "The Rise of Great Powers" has ended, the Russian and Japanese chapters have caused great controversy. Because in the article, Zhou Hexuan predicted the rise of Soviet Russia and discussed Japan's mainland policy. He also said that Soviet Russia and Japan posed a great threat to China and were constantly encroaching on China's territory, and hoped that the government and local warlords would pay attention to it.
There are many Chinese people who hold this viewpoint, but Zhou Hexuan came to this conclusion after in-depth analysis, and the article reads reasonably and well-founded, which makes people have to believe it.
Both the pro-Soviet faction and the pro-Japanese faction expressed their dissatisfaction with Zhou Hexuan to a greater or lesser extent, and pushed Zhou Hexuan to the forefront for a while. As for the Soviet Union and Japan, there was no reaction, after all, Zhou Hexuan wrote an academic article, and it was published in the British newspaper, and it was impossible for the two governments to protest against the British.
Although Xu Zhimo didn't know such a popular figure, he also wanted to pay a visit. In addition to sending the wedding card, he also had another task, that is, he was entrusted by Zheng Zhenduo to invite Zhou Hexuan to join the Literary Research Association.
"Bang bang bang!"
Xu Zhimo knocked on the door of the president's room.
"Come in!"
Xu Zhimo pushed the door in, held his glasses and said, "Hello Mr. Zhou, contemptible Xu Zhimo." ”
"It turned out to be Xu Da Poet, please come in!" Zhou Hexuan was quite surprised, and he didn't know what Xu Zhimo was looking for him to do.
Xu Zhimo walked to the desk and sat down, glanced at the manuscript on the table and asked, "Mr. Zhou is writing again?" ”
"Textbooks." Zhou Hexuan got up and poured water for Xu Zhimo.
Nowadays, education in the Republic of China is extremely chaotic, there is no unified teaching materials for the whole country, and each locality does its own thing, and even the principal has the final say on what courses to teach.
"Mr. Zhou is really dedicated to education, and I admire him." Xu Zhimo praised from the bottom of his heart. He is also a patriotic young man, who was fed up with the warlords' melee and stayed abroad, at first he wanted to seek a way to save the country, and he still read political economy, but unfortunately he read crookedly, and finally devoted himself to poetry creation.
After chatting with each other for a few words, Zhou Hexuan asked, "What is Mr. Xu looking for me?" ”
"That's right, Mr. Zheng Zhenduo knew that I was coming to Tianjin, and specially entrusted me to invite Mr. Zhou to join the Literary Research Association," Xu Zhimo said and took out another invitation, "and I got married on October 3, and if Mr. Zhou is free, I hope to come to Peking to attend my wedding." ”
