Today is the opening ceremony, which is not open to the public, but only for guests.

The Commercial Press has been operating in Shanghai for 30 years, and it has a deep heritage, and there is an endless stream of celebrities who come to congratulate them, not only local political and business leaders, but also foreign embassy personnel.

It is said that many books in foreign languages were donated by embassies of various countries.

Hundreds of people gathered together, and the scene was lively.

Lin Zixuan and the owners of other bookstores are also among them, after all, this is a major event in the publishing industry, they can't help but come, otherwise they will be said to have no bearing.

Don't look at the fierce competition between the two sides, you still have to maintain a harmonious atmosphere on the surface.

The senior management of the Commercial Press asked Lin Zixuan to speak, but he politely refused, and he could see that he was just polite.

It is not Lin Zixuan's turn to be in the limelight on this kind of occasion, if he doesn't know how to really go up and speak, he will not be a man.

When he visited the library, he couldn't help but admire the heritage of the Commercial Press, which has accumulated 30 years of experience and is not comparable to Vientiane Bookstore, which has a large collection of rare books and rare books, all of which are priceless.

Participation in this opening ceremony was just a walk-around formality, and no one actually came to read the book.

Moreover, even if it is really open to the public, you can only read ordinary books, and those rare books will never be borrowed.

In this day and age, book collecting was mostly a private act.

Wealthy families have their own library buildings, and large families will have study rooms, such as the Commercial Press spending a lot of money to build a public library, which has attracted the attention of all walks of life.

Lin Zixuan looked at it casually.

In his hurry, he didn't notice a manuscript in a corner of the stacks.

It was the one he mailed to the Commercial Press.

The top management of the Commercial Press once wrote a letter to the author of "The Man in the High Castle", but he did not expect the letter to be returned. The reason was that the address was wrong and the person could not be found.

They felt that maybe they had been tricked. Unable to get over his face, he transferred the manuscript from the Commercial Press to the Oriental Library.

I put it together with some foreign language books at random. There is no fanfare, not many people know.

It wasn't until a few years later, when the Oriental Library checked the bibliography, that it was discovered that the manuscript was missing.

The record is supposed to have taken place in November 1926, when there was a strike at the Commercial Press, and many employees were either fired or resigned.

Among them was the librarian of the Oriental Library.

They came to the conclusion that the library strikers took advantage of the chaos to take a lot of books out of the library, and that this kind of thing could not be traced, so they had to stop it.

Lin Zixuan didn't know about this. He later stopped caring about the fate of the manuscript, as long as it didn't involve him.

When I returned home from Zhabei District, Miss Song Jiasan happened to be there, gossiping with Feng Chengcheng.

She came to convey a message from her brother Song Ziwen, to the effect that the Northern Expedition was about to begin, and everything was ready, so that Lin Zixuan didn't have to worry about it, and he could write whatever he wanted.

Song Ziwen should know what happened to Lin Zixuan in the Soviet Union, and this is very meaningful.

Reminiscent of the "Zhongshan ship incident" that occurred in Guangzhou in March. and then Wang Jingwei was forced to resign and leave for France, and it seems that there are serious divisions within the Guangzhou government.

Lin Zixuan didn't care about this kind of factional struggle, even if Song Ziwen didn't say it. In the same way, he would write about what he saw and heard in the Soviet Union.

Miss Song Jiasan is here to say goodbye this time, she is going to Guangzhou, I am afraid she will have to stay for a few months.

Wait for the third lady to leave. Feng Chengcheng said the reason.

Song Ailing, who was in Guangzhou, wanted to match the marriage between Miss Song Jiasan and Mr. Jiang in Guangzhou, so she sent a telegram asking her sister to go to Guangzhou to meet. As for whether the matter will work out or not, it depends on the meaning of the two.

Mr. Jiang has admired Miss Song Jiasan for a long time. I have mentioned this matter to Sun Zhongshan many times.

Helplessly, Song Tingling has always disagreed, and she is quite decisive in this matter.

She would rather see her sister die than have her sister marry a man who has at least one or two mistresses in the city of Guangzhou.

I have to say that Mr. Jiang is indeed not very restrained in this regard.

There are different views on this marriage within the Song family, the eldest sister has a happy attitude, the second sister does not agree, Song Ziwen also does not support it, and their mother, Mrs. Song, refuses.

The outlook is bleak.

But Miss Song Jiasan has her own opinions, and she went to Guangzhou this time to see that Mr. Jiang.

The two met in 1922, but at that time, Miss Song Jiasan did not think much of Mr. Jiang, and she was going to marry a big man, not a small attendant.

Four years have passed, and the former little attendant has become the commander-in-chief, and he is qualified to let the third lady go to see it.

Feng Chengcheng and Miss Song Jiasan are good girlfriends, and there is nothing to hide about this kind of thing.

"Is that what you said to Meiling before a coincidence?" Feng Chengcheng said curiously.

"What?" Lin Zixuan was puzzled.

"Her marriage." Feng Chengcheng explained, "You said the phrase 'you will know in the future'. ”

"Ah, you said that, I said it casually, she won't take it seriously." Lin Zixuan said suddenly.

Feng Chengcheng shook his head and did not continue to ask.

She still remembers visiting Sun Zhongshan with her husband a few years ago, and it was Mr. Jiang who opened the door.

Lin Zixuan once said that Mr. Jiang was "rich and unspeakable in the future", she didn't care about it in the past, but now that she thinks about it, it is indeed a little strange, and it feels a bit unpredictable.

It's just that she doesn't want to delve into it, it's someone else's business.

A wise woman will never be more serious about these small issues, and women who like to be more serious often have a bad life.

Lin Zixuan didn't expect that Miss Song Jiasan would still remember that joke.

Thinking about it, it is easy for such a smart woman to figure out this word game, but it is not a big deal, just say that she already knew that Mr. Jiang pursued her, which is not a secret in the Song family.

Just think of it as a good-natured joke.

As a friend, Lin Zixuan blessed the third lady in his heart, although I don't know if the union between her and Mr. Jiang is really happy, but she has indeed realized her ambition.

In this day and age, few women have been able to do this.

After calming down, he began to write "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears", a title that can also be explained by the oppressive rule in the Soviet Union, that is, too literary.

This is Lin Zixuan's own creation.

Through these years of reading and writing, his writing has improved a lot, and he has no problem writing general articles.

The content is similar to a travelogue, from the cause of the incident, the great discussion of "United Russia and hatred of Russia" in China, to the trip to the Soviet Union, what he saw and heard in the Soviet Union, and so on, try to adopt an objective attitude.

This is just an ordinary travelogue, he does not intend to write a classic, only to be detailed, so that the Chinese can understand a real Soviet Union.

This series of articles will be published in The News, and it will inevitably provoke criticism when the time comes.

Lin Zixuan is ready to make the storm more violent! (To be continued.) )
