Chapter 39: If You Leave
I woke up at four o'clock, and I always felt that I hadn't done anything. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info opened the phone.,Sure enough, I found that this chapter was saved and not published.。 Now for the update.
The warm welcome ceremony came to an end, and Wu Rui briefed Jin Tong on Qiu Feng's personal experience.
Everyone sat around the kang, and Qiu Feng talked about business: "This time I came to the north, one is the publication of Jin Tong's younger brother's poetry collection, and the other is ...... More on that later! ”
He took out a book from his bag and handed it to Jin Tong.
The book is light and a bit thin, with just over a hundred pages.
On the white cardboard cover, the title is vertically arranged, and the three words "Wilderness Collection" are strong and powerful, as if written by a famous artist.
Next to the title of the book, it is indicated in small italics as "Jin Tong works".
The cover is an ink painting. Let's talk about a few brushstrokes to outline the scene of pine forests on the snow-capped mountains. The focus of the picture is a small courtyard in the middle of the mountain, with no human figures, only a line of footprints, extending from the small courtyard to the outside of the picture.
Jin Tong opened the cover, and the copyright page indicated "issued by the Oriental Press" and "Editor-in-charge Qiu Feng" and other information.
Qiu Feng explained: "This is a lead printed paperback edition, and the first printing of 500,000 copies has been completed. Because of the Spring Festival, the distribution has not yet begun. I brought the sample book first. The big boss of the East is optimistic about the sales prospects, and has been preparing to make hardcover lithographs, and has found a few painters to do illustrations......"
Jin Tong thanked him, "You guys really bothered. ”
Qiu Feng immediately took out a few pages and asked him to sign it, but it was a contract.
The document has been signed and stamped by Dongfang Se.
Jin Tong didn't care much, looked at the royalties and print run clearly, and signed directly.
The contract was in duplicate, Qiu Feng put one copy away, put it in his bag, and left the other copy for Jin Tong, who was snatched by Jin Jing next to him, and looked at it with relish.
Qiu Feng saw this little girl who suddenly came out, and said with a smile: "You are quiet, right?" ”
"You know me?" Jin Jing looked up at Qiu Feng, her face full of curiosity, "I haven't seen you?" ”
"I've admired the name of the quiet for a long time!"
"Huh?" Jin Jing said strangely, "What do I have to be famous for!" ”
"Don't you know?" Qiu Feng couldn't help but joke, "Your brother has mentioned you many times in the book!" When "Notes on the Great Wilderness" is published, you will be even more famous! The whole country will look up to your name for a long time! ”
"Really?" Jin Jing was a little surprised, tried to make his expression more serious, and said with a pretentious feeling: "Famous or something, I'm not uncommon!" ”
She turned her head and "glared" at her brother, "Jin Tong! In the future, you are not allowed to write about me in the book! ”
Jin Tong looked innocent, "You have read the whole text, why didn't you protest before!" ”
"Before...... Jin Jing stumbled, turned his head and threw him the back of his head, "I didn't expect it before!" Anyway, it's not allowed to write! Not at all! Absolutely not! ”
"Okay, okay, if you don't write, you won't write, and if you don't take it as an example, okay?"
"You promise?"
"I promise!"
"Humph!" Jin Jing twisted her head back at this time, there was no trace of anger on her face, and she smiled like a flower.
She asked Qiu Feng with a smile: "Uncle Qiu-no, it's Brother Qiu, I don't understand this contract." How much is my brother's remuneration? ”
"Uncle? Am I that old? Qiu Feng touched his face, smiled bitterly, and introduced the royalty calculation method to the little girl.
Jin Jing immediately calculated that her brother could get 75,000 yuan for the first edition. She was slightly stunned, and her expression suddenly became vivid, almost like a golden light.
She grabbed Jin Tong's sleeve and shouted, "Brother! Elder brother! We've got money! Rich! When I get back to Teijing, I'll be able to buy the hotel back! ”
The rest of the people did some mental calculations, and they were secretly frightened, Jin Tong is a veritable "one book to get rich"! However, they have all seen big scenes, but they will not lose their temper, and they just exclaim twice.
Jin Tong touched his sister's head dotingly, and said softly: "Okay, buy it back!" Don't make a fuss about it yet. ”
"Hmm!" Jin Jing nodded vigorously and sat back beside her brother quietly, unable to hide the eagerness on her face.
Qiu Feng said again: "The amount of remuneration is huge, and it is impossible to distribute cash, so you need to provide a bank account." But you probably don't have one right now, right? ”
Jin Tong replied, "Yes, because ...... The property was confiscated, the previous account was frozen, and the account was closed after the official withdrawal. ”
"Then you have to go to the county seat with me and open an account at the bank. By the way, is the pavilion chief who is taking care of you good to talk? ”
Hearing this question, Jin Jing hurriedly spoke: "You said Uncle Ashku? He's all right! And gave me a little white dog! It's a pity ......"
"That's easy! When the account is opened, I send a telegram to my boss, and then I can transfer the money. ”
Jin Tong had no opinion at all, just nodded.
He has not been able to appreciate the practical significance of this "huge amount of money" for the time being, after all, in what he has seen and heard in another life, millions of families are embarrassed to call themselves rich, and hundreds of millions of dollars are qualified! What is 70,000 yuan!
Qiu Feng brought ten sample books, signed the contract and took them out to distribute to everyone.
The printing and binding of the paperback version are not exquisite, but they can only be said to be good. But the author of the preface, Mr. Lu, is famous, and everyone was shocked after reading it.
Invite such a great god, and I don't know how much money Dongfang Se sent for the pen polishing fee!
After talking about the poetry collection, let's talk about "Notes on the Great Wilderness".
Although it has not yet been published, Xiang Yimin said in the letter that "Pinbao" has been determined to be published one by one, and a remuneration of four yuan for 1,000 words has been offered! Don't think that the price is very low, this is already the standard of payment for regular contract authors of "Pinbao"!
Qiu Feng apologized on behalf of Xiang Yimin: "In order to make the Great Wilderness Notes public, the newspaper will make relatively large deletions, and I hope you don't blame ......."
Jin Tong hurriedly waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, it's good to be able to publish it!" I have already said in my letter that you can change it as you like, Brother Jin Ying and ...... Brother Yimin, after being busy with the two books, I should thank you, how can it be strange! ”
After talking about Jin Tong's book, it was another turn.
Pardon.
Qiu Feng grabbed his sideburns and didn't know where to start.
The eyes that everyone cast on him were full of expectation and anxiety, and Qiu Feng was a little ashamed for a while, feeling ashamed of his old friend.
He sorted out his thoughts a little, and pretended to be relaxed: "The big boss of the East is very capable, and he hooked up with Liu Siyuan, the son of Duke Xu, a few years ago. The coal mine was sent out, and there was friendship. He had a probe with the county lord of Chang'an, and the county lord said that it was impossible to overturn the case! ”
"We didn't want to overturn the case, so we said pardon!" Lin Qian said urgently.
Qiu Feng smiled reluctantly and said, "The boss talked to Liu Siyuan later. But before the social impact of the three major cases completely subsided, Xu Guogong refused to express his position lightly. Liu Siyuan confessed that one coal mine was not enough for their family to take such a big risk! ”
"What!" When Lu Tianxi heard this, he was about to explode!
Yang Yuheng took the case, "I said a long time ago that you can't trust the chaebol!" One by one, they all turned their faces and didn't recognize people! Now it's good! Now it's good! ”
Chen Zhenxiu said hatefully: "A big coal mine has been sent out lightly...... Nothing was caught! Yes! Really! ”
Lin Qian was silent, and punched the kang head, breaking half of the green brick.
Wu Rui grabbed the irritable Lu Tianxi, this guy's temper is getting worse and worse, and he wants to take out the prospecting team with a gun!
……
In the fighting room, everyone was in chaos, and they were in a mess!
Jin Tong opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what he wanted to say, and he couldn't hear what others said. Jin Jing grabbed her brother's arm tightly and shook it constantly.
"Be quiet!" Qiu Feng raised the tone slightly, but no one noticed.
"Be quiet!" This time it was louder, and the others were still noisy.
"Shut up!" Qiu Feng burst into foul language, and finally calmed down the small boys' dormitory.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said foul language!" Qiu Feng lowered his voice and apologized to everyone, "But, I want to say, what kind of revolutionaries are you TM!" His voice suddenly rose an octave!
"A piece of bad news that caused you to start infighting?
Can't afford such a little setback?
You chose to donate the coal mine, didn't you just want to gamble! Isn't it decided by everyone together?
Now that you lose the bet and are not convinced, you blame your comrades and comrades-in-arms?
Let me say, you made the right decision! Coal mines are not going to be good in the first place! What kind of place is this, and what is Xingliao Group, do you want me to say!
Want to develop your own? Look who dares to touch their hands! A little wind leaked, and Xingliao's machine gun team came over! Directly take you suddenly, take the corpse and feed the wolf!
I know that you have great hopes in your hearts, and now it is difficult to accept this news for a while.
When ordinary people encounter this situation, they will be anxious, annoyed, complain to each other, and even fight among themselves.
But are you ordinary people?
No!
You call yourselves revolutionaries! It is necessary to be strict with yourself according to the standards of revolutionaries!
Yang Yuheng, everything you said just now is Wu Rui's responsibility! Chen Zhenxiu, you are neither yin nor yang, it seems that you are the most high? And Lu Tianxi, are you a bandit? Is it a robber? You dare to do such a thing as indiscriminate killing of innocents!
I don't want to criticize anyone, nor do I want to defend anyone, it is not easy for Huajie to come to this day as a group, if you think that this group does not matter, and it doesn't matter if it is dispersed, just let me say nothing!
If you still care about this group, haven't forgotten your ideals, and want to continue to unite in the pursuit of social progress, fairness and justice, then don't put on a girl's face for me again! Crying and complaining to each other, what kind of revolutionaries are they!
I am a few years older than you, and I wanted to give you advice and teach you a little life experience, but I have been out of Huajie for several years, and I don't know your current situation, so I won't say much.
But Wu Rui! You are a leader now, and you have to take responsibility!
Above the wilderness, isolated from the world. Just like that, there are more than 20 people who can't lead a team, you have to reflect on it!
Okay, I won't say more. Discuss it for yourselves! ”
Qiu Feng's stormy reprimand made everyone bow their heads in shame.
In the silence, Jin Tong suddenly spoke: "Linking theory with practice, maintaining close ties with the masses, and criticism and self-criticism are the three fine styles that a progressive group should maintain at all times. ”
After he finished speaking, he was silent.
Wu Rui dragged Lu Tianxi, who had calmed down, to the edge of the kang and sat down, bowed deeply to everyone, and said, "Criticism and self-criticism, Jin Tong said it very well. I'm going to start by making a self-criticism to you today. First of all, I would like to assume the leadership responsibility for this coal mine amnesty incident......"
"No!" Lin Qian stood up, "This matter is what I am mainly promoting!" I should take the main responsibility! ”
Jin Tong also stood up, "I was the first to make a suggestion!" Although I am not a member of the Chinese Liberation Committee, I am willing to take responsibility and accept everyone's criticism. ”
……
The next scene was harmonious, everyone rushed to take responsibility for themselves, and even Yang Yuheng and Chen Zhenxiu apologized to others for their previous unscrupulous words.
The dormitory was noisy again, but this time, everyone's tone was much softer.
"Where's the discipline of your meetings!" Qiu Feng clapped his hands vigorously, "Don't be impatient, there is time to apologize to each other, I still have something to say!" ”
Wu Rui asked everyone to be quiet and listen to Qiu Feng.
Although there is little hope for pardon, Liu Siyuan is not turning his face and denying people. He proposed a number of preferential measures. The general idea is that as long as the coal mine is built, everyone will get the grassroots management position of the Xingliao Group in exchange for better living conditions. Except that they can't leave, they are no different from ordinary employees. ”
Seeing that everyone was a little surprised, he turned to Jin Tong again, his expression slightly complicated, "Especially you." Your collection of poems has entered the eyes of the lord of Chang'an County, Liu Siyuan said that he will help you get medical parole, I don't know when it will be done, but there should be a letter within a month or two.
Although you can't go back to Beijing, you can take your sister to live in Shengshan County, and Jin Jing can go to school without having to suffer in the wasteland. ”
Jin Jing suddenly jumped up, "I'm not leaving!" I still have to learn boxing from my sister! ”
Jin Tong's heart was extremely shocked, and he looked at his sister's firm expression of "never be a traitor" on her face, and hesitated for a while.
