Cao Xuping's words are obviously to further motivate Wang Defu, just because there are really many good articles these days, but it is very unusual to be able to ensure that good articles can be published in influential media.

Wang Defu is the kind of person who is full of good articles, but he suffers from the fact that his reputation is too low, and influential media may not be willing to publish his works, what he lacks is the opportunity to make his more compelling works appreciated by the public.

There is no way, if the kind of work that caters to the market can be "the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys", then the more in-depth and ideological works need the media to exert force behind the scenes, and at the same time, it also needs the interpretation of various experts and professors, and there are bigwigs behind it, so as to ensure its influence.

Like Wang Defu's book "Love and Sex", if it weren't for the literary bigwig He Shouchang to advocate it, followed by all kinds of petty bourgeois literary and artistic youths, and even expressed their feelings in the newspaper, making its name even louder, then the sales of his work would definitely be cool.

It is also a coincidence that Liang Jing, a cutting-edge female writer who admires Wang Defu very much, or a girl who keenly discovered that she could make herself more famous by rubbing Wang Defu's popularity, actually wrote thousands of words of nostalgia for "Love and Sex", and even shouted to "Ms. Yiren" in the air, hoping to make a good friend with "Ms. Yiren".

The name of this sentiment is "Between Light and Heavy", and she wrote in the article -

"I prefer the foreign name of this good book to the Chinese name "Love and Sex", which is also the origin of the name of my own emotional essay "Between Light and Heavy".

People often lament the heaviness of life, and there is always a feeling of being overwhelmed in life, why do you feel heavy?

…… (More than 500 words omitted)

A person's life is a draft that can never become a formal work, a rehearsal that can never be officially put on the stage, life belongs to us only once, in the end, we ourselves are unable to test which way of life is more correct through comparison, so we don't need to regard every choice as so important, so heavy, we can be a mortal, as we like to enjoy the ease of life, however, can it really be like this?

Maybe some people really can, but there will still be some people who are difficult to bear the lightness of life, which is more important than the weight of life, just like Xu Shizhe and his lover Lu Popce in the article, in their bodies, the spirit and the flesh are separated, but the lightness that the body can enjoy makes the soul feel inexplicably heavy.

And the more Xu Shizhe lingers with Lu Poppy, the more he unconsciously feels the soul of Zhang Wanyi, the person he loves each other.

…… (nearly 1,000 words omitted)

Contradictory life, the contradictions of life, make us often at a loss to know what life is, and it is precisely because of this confusion that we have suffered more pain than heaviness.

At the end of the day, it has to be said that a life that is not worth taking seriously is more unbearable than a life full of responsibilities and painful choices.

It should be said that she is worthy of being a talented girl Liang Jing, she can actually understand so many life philosophies from such a work as "Love and Sex", which seems to be writing about scumbag poets frolicking in the flowers, and can only say that she should be the target reader of the work "Love and Sex", so Wang Ba looked at mung beans and saw it completely right!

There are actually not many young readers like her, and they have all made great contributions to the sales and fame of "Love and Sex".

Many young writers even created a circle of book friends for "Love and Sex", and when they gathered together to discuss this work, all kinds of very good wonderful short comments appeared-

"If you only plan to read this book once, you should give up as soon as possible, it is by no means a mandarin duck and butterfly work that makes people swallow dates, but a novel that rises to the height of philosophy."

"Such a stylish masterpiece, it's not that you want to read it, you can read it if you want to read it."

"I wondered how my reading speed had deteriorated to such an extent, but after reading it, I realized that this book really needs to be digested slowly. I cried before I came to the discussion today. ”

"Ms. Iren's exposition of kitsch made me red. She's sharp and laughable, and at the same time mean and embarrassing......"

"When life becomes light, there's nothing worth fighting for. As life becomes weightless, life loses its meaning. And only responsibility is the sunshine of life, a person with a sense of burden, he can bring, the glow is vibrant. Life is full because of responsibility, full because of fullness, and glorious because of fullness. ”

……

Obviously, with the republication of "Love and Sex", those young readers who originally wanted to buy a copy but couldn't buy it, after everyone bought this work, its reputation was completely fermented, and its fame is increasing day by day!

Whether it is a well-known talented female writer who expresses her feelings in newspapers and magazines, or young readers gather to form a book circle to discuss, all of this is increasing its popularity.

And whether it is a real Wenqing or a fake Wenqing, they prefer its other name "The Unbearable Lightness of Life", if the reprint of "Love and Sex" is sold out, maybe the title of the book will be changed directly to the former.

Editor-in-chief Ling Jingsu also communicated with Wang Defu on this matter, and of course Wang Defu would not object, just because it is clear who is higher and who is lower in the two titles.

It's just that "Love and Sex" hasn't been blown out of such a reputation and style at the beginning, so the title of the book needs to be a little easier to understand to deceive readers into the pit.

Now, with the gradual expansion and stabilization of the readership, it can already obtain the privilege of pure literature, that is, to take a title that makes readers unaware of it, and further improve the quality of the book, regardless of whether ordinary readers can read it or not.

The average reader can't understand it, that's the basic operation.

……

Wang Defu agreed to Cao Xuping, the head of the department, without hesitation, saying that he would never disappoint the school, and he would definitely seize such a good opportunity.

However, he still has to think carefully about what he wants to write about an ideological work that can cause a sensation like "The Subservient Status of Women".

At this time, Wang Defu received an invitation from Ling Jingsu to dinner, saying that he wanted to discuss the serialization of her work "Smoke and Rain", as well as the royalties of Wang Defu's reprint of "Love and Sex", and he would also settle with him.

In fact, Wang Defu knew that Ling Jingsu should miss him.
