Chapter 16 It's not easy to live, the dragon and snake will be
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the award ceremony of "Mizuki" comes. Qiuhua stepped on the plane to the imperial capital, and Tian Jingru waved her hand reluctantly, asking him to take good care of himself.
In fact, Qiuhua didn't want to go, but a few days ago, her mother answered her phone, and after learning about it, she tried her best to persuade Qiuhua to go, and Tian Jingru drew a plane ticket to the imperial capital, which made Qiuhua faintly feel that this was an opportunity.
The imperial capital, as the first economic, cultural and political center in China, has the reputation of "the fortress of the world" since ancient times. Many emperors of all dynasties settled here, and the whole city revealed a kind of *.
Here, you can deeply feel the pride of being an imperial capital, and you can look at the signboards hanging on the street, such as "the first soup in the world" and "the first face in the world" and other signboards abound. This is the unique pride of the people of the imperial capital, and it is a godsend.
"Phew, it's finally here." After a few hours of flying, Qiuhua finally arrived in this famous imperial capital. It's better to meet than to be famous, high-rise buildings can be seen everywhere, and most of the people on the street are dressed in formal clothes, with an innate temperament.
The bustle of traffic on the streets is a sign of the city's vibrancy. Because it is also the ancient capital, you can also see that there are many ancient buildings left here, some of which are abruptly between the tall commercial buildings, which is a perfect blend of ancient and modern cultures, reflecting the tolerance of the city.
Walking among these ancient buildings, Qiuhua suddenly dreamed back to the ancient times and had the idea of opening a teahouse here. This city was once a place that countless literati yearned for, and it was also a place where the souls of many heroes were broken, and when you close your eyes, you can still hear the drums and horns.
However, the only fly in the ointment is that most of the pedestrians on the street look hurried, which highlights the fast pace of life in the imperial capital, and makes people feel a lot of estrangement.
Qiu Hua initially thought that it would be more than enough to spend a few hundred yuan in the imperial capital for three days, but after she asked about the price of a hotel room, it was completely shattered.
The front desk lady said in a very sweet tone: "Hello, that's right, sir, our ordinary suite is 888 for one night, and the superior suite is 2222." We have also launched a new presidential suite this time, which is CBD as far as the eye can see, and it is absolutely supreme enjoyment. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Hua had already flown away, for fear that she would have to charge if she stayed here for a while, which would cause the front desk lady to be disdainful.
"The people take food as the sky," then eat first, this dish of hundreds of dishes made Qiuhua stare at him, but the rice had to be eaten, Qiuhua endured the pain and ate a few dozen pieces of noodles. Helpless, Qiuhua could only rent a motel, buy instant noodles, eight-treasure porridge, and think that she would deal with it first in the next few days. Qiuhua looked up to the sky and shouted: "I will never come to the imperial capital again in the future."
After calling her mother and Tian Jingru separately, Qiuhua didn't fall asleep directly, not because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't. The lights of the city are still dazzling, and people are just getting into the nightlife.
There was a burst of indecent sounds from the private room next door. Qiuhua was upset, and at the same time secretly lamented that life in Beipiao was not easy. I was far away in the backward Guangmo City before, and I didn't know the real gap, but now when I arrived in this imperial capital, I suddenly felt a lot of emotion in my heart and wanted to write something.
He opened the memo, thought for a while, wrote for a while, and the words gradually appeared on the screen:
When I was a kid, a lot of things were small
The cards that come out when eating instant noodles are small
The wild fruits picked when I go fishing are small
Only the bright moon is big
When you are studying, many things are also small
The town I live in is small
Your steps when you walk are small
Only the distance from your house to my house is huge
Nowadays, buildings and cars are big
Even the grave is huge
It's just me who is small
̅ "Tiny"
February 9th is quite a sensation for the online literary world. Because today, many literary websites will have selection activities, such as "Writers of the Year", "Internet Writers Rich List", etc., which are enough to see.
"Mizuki" is also a clear stream, and an essay contest was held at the end of the year, so as not to engage in those fictions. Although the original intention was good, the people involved were mixed.
Among them, there are online gods, chicken soup masters, and some newcomers, and there are a few old people sitting on the VIP seats, it seems that they are some titans, Qiuhua is the first time to come to this kind of place, and he can't help but be very happy in his heart.
Of course, there are also a lot of people from other literary websites here, who are recruiting, hoping that someone will become a god under their banner.
Zhang Xinhui and Zhou Liwen, the editor-in-chief of "Shuimu", are college classmates and have always had a good personal relationship, so today, she also came here as a private person to cheer for this old classmate.
However, after coming here, there are few people who can see it, although those people also have some temperament, but most of them think very highly of themselves, and they still can't help but reveal cheesy in their conversations. Zhang Xinhui unconsciously whispered: "Laymen talk about elegance, and only when they are high-level do they whisper."
Qiuhua came to the venue early, he was here for the first time, and while he was happy, he was also nervous.
He was also afraid of offending anyone, so he sat in his seat, causing some people to laugh.
At this time, he heard such a voice: "Eh, Writer Li, who doesn't know that you are a top student who graduated from country M, the meeting will be dismissed, please come to the cold house."
Qiuhua stood up and saw that it was his cousin, Li Wenshi. He walked over and called, "Hello cousin."
Seeing this, the fat man who had been talking to Li Wenshi just now turned to Qiuhua and said: "Yo, Writer Li, this is your cousin, wow, he is so extraordinary at a young age, he must be a dragon and a phoenix in the world in the future."
Li Wenshi glanced at Qiu Hua, snorted coldly and left. The man knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly chased after him and said: "Writer Li, Writer Li, I was wrong just now, don't be angry, there are more people who are sanctimonious, why should you worry about this kind of person?" Isn't it? ”
This sentence was obviously said to Qiuhua, but it became a true portrayal of himself. Qiuhua didn't care, anyway, this cousin has always looked down on their family, but her mother said that she should do a good job of etiquette, and it is someone else's business if others don't accept it.
Zhang Xinhui found that the atmosphere here was too depressing, so it was better to move around, but found a familiar figure in the crowd, so he picked up the wine glass and walked over.
"Hello Qiuhua." Qiu Hua heard someone call him, and instinctively looked back, and the person who came turned out to be Director Zhang of Guangmo City, and he was about to speak.
Zhang Xinhui made a silent gesture and whispered to him: "I came here today as a private person." Qiu Hua nodded understandingly. Zhang Xinhui asked: "What is it that Qiuhua is here, and you want to use this as inspiration to write 'The Strange Status Quo You Witness'?"
Qiu Hua said embarrassedly: "Bureau Zhang...", Zhang Xinhui reminded him again, and he immediately changed his words: "Aunt Zhang, don't tease me." I actually signed up for this essay contest a few months ago. ”
Zhang Xinhui nodded approvingly and said with a smile: "Young man, broadening your horizons is very beneficial to the future." The fact that you can come here shows that there should be a harvest this time, congratulations in advance. By the way, my daughter is also in the same school as you, so you may know each other. She's been complaining that it's all nerds here, and there's no handsome guys, so I'll take you to meet her. ”
Qiuhua nodded, followed behind Zhang Xinhui, and thought in her heart: Am I a handsome guy?
