Chapter 4 Teacher Ma is here
4
Yang Ping's face was originally full of smiles, but after listening to Wang Qing's words, the smile disappeared suddenly.
"What do you mean?" Yang Ping asked Wang Qing.
Wang Qing is a person in his circle, and he is the one he values more, if Wang Qing actually uses such despicable means to suppress newcomers, then ..... Then he will have to re-evaluate Wang Qing.
Wang Qing didn't care about it, just said it casually, but when he saw Yang Ping's face, he immediately knew that the other party had misunderstood, and quickly explained:
"Lao Yang, it's not what you think, Xiaoshan is creating for the first time, his work is a military theme, he came here today to ask Mr. Ma to help with some guidance, he just met with Mr. Ma for the first time today, so we solemnly reminded him that it is best not to take out his works today, you know, Mr. Ma has always had high requirements for military novels, and he has never advocated that beginners write military novels at the beginning!"
"Really?" Yang Ping frowned.
"Don't believe you, ask Xiao Qin and Li He? Or do you ask the hill directly? Wang Qing was anxious.
Yang Ping turned his head to look at Chen Beiming: "Xiaoshan, what Wang Qing said is true?" ”
But without waiting for Chen Beiming to answer, Yang Ping changed the question: "Are you really creating for the first time?" Writing a military novel for the first time? ”
Well. Chen Beiming nodded.
Yang Ping then solemnly looked at Chen Beiming's eyes: "Even if you have been a soldier, it won't be too long, right?" ”
"Well, it's not long, a little more than two years." Chen Beiming replied.
Yang Ping nodded, looked at Chen Beiming and said seriously: "Then listen to Wang Qing, don't take out your things." ”
After a pause, Yang Ping sighed in order to dispel the resistance in Chen Beiming's heart: "Mr. Ma's requirements for military-themed works are really too high, taking me as an example, I have written novels for more than ten years, no matter experience or ability, I am not weak, right?" ”
"Mr. Yang is already a member of the Capital Writers Association." Wang Qing hurriedly added.
"His novel "Wheat" sold 500,000 copies last year, 500,000 a year!" Xiao Qin also agreed.
Yang Ping shook his head and sighed: "But I wrote a military-themed novel last month and showed it to Mr. Ma, but he scolded me severely after reading it, and he even warned me that if I still want to stay in his circle, then don't write military-themed works in the future, my thing is simply blasphemous." ”
Yang Ping smiled bitterly, and then patted Chen Beiming's shoulder heavily: "Xiaoshan, I believe you are very talented, but ...... But after all, today is your first appearance in front of Mr. Ma, and the first impression is important, right? If you leave him with the impression of being unsteady and impetuous, that's not good, right? And, as far as I know, he didn't know what happened this morning, he got angry all morning, and it is estimated that he will not be in a good mood now, Mr. Ma is a very emotional person, and he can say everything when he has a good temper, but if he is in a bad mood...... We're all afraid of him, so, Xiaoshan, listen to everyone. ”
A person next to him said kindly: "Xiaoshan, if you don't do this, if you can trust us, you can give your work to Mr. Yang Ping, and ask him to help you comment on it, he also has a very high level." ”
"Yes, yes, yes, please ask Mr. Yang to take a look first, this is the best!"
"That's a good idea, Xiaoshan, take out your work and show it to Mr. Yang."
When everyone heard this, they all became excited.
But just as he said this, I heard someone exclaim: "Teacher Ma is here!" ”
"Where?"
"Look, over there, that seems to be Mr. Ma!"
"It's really Mr. Ma! Hurry up and greet it! ”
"Let's go!"
"Let's go!"
Crash!
Everyone immediately turned around and went out together, and no one mentioned anything about helping Chen Beiming comment on the novel.
Chen Beiming also followed everyone out.
After a while, about ten seconds later, a middle-aged man about fifty years old, one meter eight tall, and a straight body entered Chen Beiming's field of vision.
Although he wore a casual suit, he knew at a glance that Chen Beiming must have been a soldier, or rather, he had always regarded himself as a soldier.
"Hello, Mr. Ma."
"Hello Mr. Ma."
Everyone flocked to greet them and said hello one after another.
When Ma Youwei first appeared in everyone's sight, there was no smile on his face, it was gloomy, but after seeing everyone, a friendly smile appeared on his face, and the smile was brighter than the sun in the sky.
This detail was seen by Chen Beiming.
This person is a bit yin.
He thought to himself.
But now he wants to beg someone, and he has no choice but to bite the bullet and make contact.
"Xiao Wang, I haven't seen you for a few days, you've matured a lot!"
"Xiaoqin, tsk, you're getting more and more beautiful, how is it, has the work you said last time been written?"
Ma Youwei shook hands and greeted everyone one by one.
Finally, he came to Chen Beiming and glanced up and down at Chen Beiming.
Chen Beiming hurriedly stretched out his hand and took the initiative to introduce: "Teacher Ma, hello, I am Chen Beiming. ”
"You are Chen Beiming?"
"Yes, I'm Chen Beiming, good Teacher Ma!"
"Hello." Ma Youwei stretched out his hand and shook Chen Beiming.
Li Qiulin called him last night, saying that a person who wrote a novel would come to him today.
However, because he was outside and was busy, he didn't have a good chat with Li Qiulin, and it was inconvenient to ask many details.
Li Qiulin just told him that if Chen Beiming came, then he must stay with him, keep his novels, and then give him a salary of 1000 words!
After hanging up the phone, Li Qiulin also sent him a text message, especially emphasizing that he must keep people and must pay him for 100 words.
Later, he called Li Qiulin several times, wanting to confirm the specific situation, but unfortunately he couldn't find anyone.
So what Li Qiulin meant, he still doesn't quite understand!
Whether the other party wants to bully Chen Beiming or help Chen Beiming, he can't be sure for the time being!
So Ma Youwei's eyes were a little weird when he looked at Chen Beiming.
Unexpectedly, Ma Youwei's eyes did not escape the eyes of the group of people behind him, and they were immediately misinterpreted.
A few people, you look at me, I look at you, and my heart is very strange.
"What's going on? Why is Mr. Ma's look at Xiaoshan a little weird? ”
"Yes, I also think that Mr. Ma seems to be a bit unkind!"
"Did Xiaoshan provoke Teacher Ma somewhere?"
Everyone made eye contact, but unfortunately nothing came of it.
However, at the moment of lightning, everyone still reached a consensus - that is, Chen Beiming must not be allowed to take out his works for Mr. Ma to comment, otherwise everyone will suffer! Teacher Ma lost his temper.
After a pleasant greeting, everyone walked to the teahouse together.
Ma Youwei took out a bunch of keys from his body and said with a smile: "The boss lady has something to do today, so she will come later, let's go in first." ”
When he came to the teahouse, Ma Youwei asked Yang Ping to make a pot of tea, and everyone sat down in a private room, drinking tea while listening to Ma Youwei's lecture.
"I'm going to talk to you today about the choice of subject matter." Ma Youwei took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Everyone here is a young talent who is interested in literary creation, and they are all very talented, but everyone must understand that not all fields are good at you, right?"
For example, if you want me to write those romance novels that make people cry, can I write them well?
For example, Xiao Qin, if you are asked to write iron-clad war novels, can you write them well?
Therefore, the choice of subject matter is very important!
Everyone knows that in the first half of the year, there was a military-themed TV series - "Late Autumn" became popular all over the country, so many people were red-eyed, probably because they heard that the author got a lot of manuscript fees, film and television copyrights also sold a lot of money, and everyone rushed to write military-themed works, but the things they wrote..... I really don't dare to compliment!
I haven't been a soldier, I don't have personal experience, and I really can't write military-themed works!
It's not that I look down on you, but that's the truth, and you can't write military works either.
So, guys, I want you not to follow this ethos......."
Swish!
Everyone's eyes glanced at Chen Beiming in unison.
"Xiaoshan, do you hear that?"
"Don't take your stuff out!"
Everyone secretly admonished with their eyes.
After talking for about an hour, Ma Youwei smiled and said: "Okay, let's take out your own works, and I'll comment on them one by one." ”
Yang Ping was the first to stand up, took out his work from his bag, and respectfully handed it to Ma Youwei.
Ma Youwei picked up the manuscript paper and read it quickly.
Yang Ping wrote a short story this time, about 3,000 words, so Ma Youwei read it very quickly, and he finished reading it after a while.
"Yang Ping, you ..... No, why is your writing level a little regressive! Look at this description of yours....... What are you writing about? What about the characteristics of the characters? Is it written? Also, you can't write for the sake of describing, what are you writing this for......."
Ma Youwei was merciless in his criticism.
Yang Ping lowered his head in shame.
"Wang Qing, show me your work!" Ma Youwei looked at the second.
Wang Qing wrote a poem.
Ma Youwei didn't want to read him to the end of a minute.
His face became darker and darker: "Wang Qing, Wang Qing, why are you so unreminiscent, haven't you told you many times, you are not suitable for writing poetry at all, look at what you write?" If it's a primary school student who gives it to me, I can give him a ninety points, but how old are you......"
Originally, the atmosphere of this writing salon was quite good, but when it came to the review session, the atmosphere somehow became tense.
Ma Youlong's face became darker and darker.
One author after another has been criticized by him as incomplete.
So after a while, someone saw that the situation was not good, and immediately took the initiative to say: "Mr. Ma, mine hasn't been written yet, I'm here today to listen to your writing experience!" ”
As soon as this head opened, the others followed.
"Mr. Ma, I haven't written it yet."
"Mine too."
Everyone shook their heads one by one.
So soon, Ma Youwei's eyes looked at Chen Beiming.
Everyone's eyes also fell on Chen Beiming: "Xiaoshan, don't take it out!" ”
Everyone hints in a variety of ways.
