122. Golden Apple Cup

In the blink of an eye, in February, seeing that the New Year was approaching, editor Guo Pinyuan came to the studio to pick up the last draft of the year.

"The next issue, it's a two-week joint issue, and then it's after the New Year, in short, I worked hard last year, and I'll make persistent efforts this year."

The popularity of "Chess Soul" has been rising recently, Guo Pinyuan is very relieved, the best proof is that on the family photo of the annual New Year's collection, the chess soul has given a big position, which also indirectly reflects the position of "Chess Soul" in the editor-in-chief's mind.

Of course, there is also the eighth issue of the jackpot after the year has also been decided to be "Chess Soul", which is the second chance of the first prize of "Chess Soul" to be published so far, and the goal is to be the first.

"By the way, there's one more thing I want to tell you?"

"What's the matter?"

"The winner of the Golden Apple Cup has already come to fruition." Guo Pinyuan said.

This news made Chen Nan and Liang Yu stunned, first of all, the Golden Apple Cup has nothing to do with those of them who have become official authors, and then isn't the date of the official publication of the Golden Apple Cup the 17th? There is still a gap in time.

"Hehe, who made this year's Spring Festival so late, and the editor also has to go home for the New Year, so the results will be selected in advance, but if it is officially announced, it will not be released until the weekly magazine on the 17th is printed." The implication is that this content is still confidential for the time being, so that Liang Yu and Chen Nan should not spread it after they know it.

But if that's the case, why tell yourself? This made Liang Yu a little puzzled, but Chen Nan was more interested in who the Golden Apple Cup was.

"Is there another powerful newcomer who has popped up?" Chen Nan asked with interest.

Last year, the Golden Apple Cup made Gu Chengfeng, a super newcomer, and it was unprecedented to serialize two works at the same time in Fantasy, and I don't know what kind of monster will emerge this year.

Guo Pinyuan smiled as if you were asking the question, and he looked at Liang Yu: "This award-winning person is someone you know." ”

"We know each other?" Chen Nan and Liang Yu looked at each other.

"Ahh Chen Nan exclaimed, as if he remembered something, but his expression became disgusted: "Could it be that pockmarked face?" ”

Who?

When Liang Yugang wanted to ask, she also remembered that in the art class she had attended during the summer vacation, there was a high school student whose name he couldn't remember, and he took the initiative to provoke himself and made a bet on the Red Dragon Award competition on Fantasy. Of course, Chen Nan and Liang Yu won, but after the school started, Liang Yu never went to the training class again, and he didn't know what the other party's situation was now.

"Horse face?" Guo Pinyuan was stunned, but now he was a little confused, after all, Ye Chuan told him about this, and he didn't confirm it himself, so he could only ask in a tone of confirmation: "Luo Shaocong, do you know?" ”

"Huh? It was my junior high school classmate. Liang Yu was slightly stunned, she didn't expect to hear this name here, in fact, after high school, they were separated, and they rarely kept in touch, and occasionally sent each other a short greeting text message.

For this boy who used to like her, Liang Yu's feelings are quite complicated, on the one hand, she naturally can't agree to make any substantial progress with him, and on the other hand, she is really touched. Liang Yu didn't want to hurt him, so if time could forget a person, this would undoubtedly be the best result, but she didn't expect that Luo Shaocong would appear in front of her again in such a way.

"It turned out to be that kid...... Chen Nan seemed to have a little impression of Luo Shaocong: "It's the boy who has always liked Liang Yu, right?" ”

"Chen Nan!"

"Ah......" Chen Nan heard Liang Yuyi say and knew that this topic was not suitable to continue, so he changed the topic: "So Editor Guo, did he win the award for this Luo Shaocong?" ”

Guo Pinyuan listened to it with a burst of embarrassment, it turned out that there was a lot of gossip in it, but he also understood that it was okay to listen to it as an editor, and he must not say anything more on this topic, so he followed Chen Nan's meaning and said: "Yes, he has won unanimous praise from the judges and teachers, and he is really a very powerful character." ”

"What kind of story is that?" When Chen Nan heard Guo Pinyuan say this, his appetite was immediately aroused.

Anyway, since you can get the Golden Apple Cup, it must be a good strength, and it is estimated that the serial is not far away, in this way, the authors of Fantasy magazines in the past two years have obviously had a trend of getting younger, last year's Gu Chengfeng and Liang Yu Chen Nan, this year's Golden Apple Cup got off to a good start, and Luo Shaocong, who was the same age as Liang Yu, won it.

Regarding Chen Nan's question, Guo Pinyuan smiled incomprehensibly: "The specifics are better to wait until the work is officially published, I don't know how to describe it, but this Luo Shaocong is a very thoughtful author, and his works have a very strong story, if you want to compare, it is a bit like the style of "Pursuit" that you won in the Red Dragon Award." ”

"It's even more appetizing when you say that." Chen Nan herself submitted countless articles before her debut, and she knew very well that if it was just a simple imitation, it would not be able to be recognized by the editors and judges, and this Luo Shaocong must have something outstanding.

"Hahaha, let's wait and see, I won't disappoint you." Guo Pinyuan ended the meeting with this sentence full of suspense.

Now that the work has come to an end, the assistants are also on vacation, and everyone is happily on vacation to prepare for the New Year, but Chen Nan does not plan to go back.

Liang Yu knew something about Chen Nan's family, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, and Liang Yu felt a little uncomfortable at the thought that Chen Nan was going to stay here alone for the Spring Festival. Simply, Liang Yu planned to invite Chen Nan to his house for the New Year.

"Chen Nan, will you celebrate the New Year at my house this year?"

"Huh?"

"Anyway, you know all you know in my family, it's just my mother and me, and I don't usually have any relatives, anyway, there is a spare room at home, so you can live here."

"This ...... Not quite right? Chen Nan was still a little hesitant.

Seeing Chen Nan like this, Liang Yu simply took out his mobile phone and edited a text message to go out, and soon Liang Yu received a reply from the other party.

"Ahh She showed it to Chen Nan.

The text message was naturally sent to her mother, she called back not long ago, saying that the work had been completed, and she would return to Qiu Nan in the next two days, but she bought a lot of things and came back, so that Liang Yu could wait and see.

The text message that my mother replied was not long, only a short sentence: "Okay, there is one more person lively this year, tell Chen Nan that I have prepared a gift for her." ”

"How?" Liang Yu asked.

Chen Nan glanced at her, and then couldn't help but smile with his white teeth exposed.
