Chapter Fifty-Six: A Strange Letter!
The next day, early in the morning, He Yun left the dormitory with two drafts of the rules and regulations of the library.
Originally, he planned to make mimeographed copies of the three draft rules and regulations according to President Zhao's arrangement.
But then he thought that the mimeograph was too troublesome, and for the sake of these three pieces of paper, which were engraved with sulfuric acid paper and mimeographed on a cylinder, it was better to copy them by hand, and it happened that there was a blank paper in his dormitory, so he simply wrote the other two copies by hand.
One copy he planned to affix to the door of the room where the library number was hung, and one copy that he was going to send to Principal Zhao, and the last copy he naturally had to keep in the dormitory as a backup.
Considering that this rule and regulations still needed to be shown to Principal Zhao, He Yun went to the principal's office first.
It happened that Principal Zhao was in the office at this time, so He Yun handed him the draft rules and regulations and said, "Principal, look at it, this is what I made overnight last night!" ”
"Oh...... So fast? Let me see? Principal Zhao was obviously shocked when he heard He Yun's words, he took the draft rules and regulations handed over by He Yun and carefully checked them.
"Hmm...... Not bad! Organized, simple, and well thought out, so be it! ”
After reading it, Principal Zhao nodded again and again, obviously he was very satisfied with the draft rules and regulations formulated by He Yun.
"That'...... Headmaster, I'll leave this one to you, and I'll stick it on the library door! He Yun smiled and said to Principal Zhao.
"Yes! It's paste, you take it and paste it! I'm going to gather the class teachers for a short meeting and explain this to them! Principal Zhao nodded, waved his hand, and gestured to He Yun.
So, He Yun took this thing to the door of the library and pasted the draft rules and regulations directly on the door.
…………
The school's library was officially opened to the public.
According to the rules and regulations formulated by He Yun, it is tentatively set to be open every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and the specific opening hours are between 12:15 p.m. and 12:40 p.m.
At this time, it is the time to take a break after lunch, which can be convenient for students to borrow books, and it is also convenient for He Yun to help them register for borrowing.
Considering that the number of books in the library is still very small, everyone can only borrow a book every two weeks for the time being.
However, what He Yun didn't expect was that he still far underestimated the students' enthusiasm for borrowing books.
No, on the first day the library was open, the small library was crowded with people who came here to borrow books.
In the end, there was no way, He Yun saw that the situation was not right, so he drove them all outside the library and asked them to line up one by one.
But even so, he quickly borrowed all the books on the shelves, including those newspapers and magazines.
In other words, the current library is like an empty shell, and there are not a single book left.
If there is no book in this library, it is like an army without a soldier, and naturally it will lose its "soul".
He Yun had to pretend to the remaining students that the time had come and asked them to go back first, while he closed the door of the library, found Principal Zhao again, and reported the situation to him.
When Principal Zhao heard He Yun's reaction, he was helpless, so he had to say to him: "Xiao He, this way, you don't want to open the library again in the next few days, I will go to the town immediately, and then grind Principal Zhou, and see if I can get more old newspapers or magazines." ”
"Alright, Headmaster, I'll think of something else as well!" He Yun saw that Principal Zhao was also smiling bitterly, and there was nothing he could do, so he could only nod and turn to leave.
…………
Time passed little by little, and the weather was getting colder and colder, and it seemed that it was time for the final exams to be held at school.
During this time, He Yun has been busy reviewing the homework of the students, and everyone has been reviewing very hard, which makes him very satisfied.
Although I don't know the results of this final exam yet, I still have a very good learning attitude.
Of course, while He Yun was satisfied, he had also been considering whether he should go to the Xinhua Bookstore in the city again and borrow or buy a batch of books.
After all, Principal Zhao probably couldn't count on it, and the library door was closed after only one day of opening, and until today, there is still a big lock on the door, which makes him not even have a chance to open the lock a second time.
However, at this moment, before he could think about it clearly, an unexpected situation occurred that made him have no heart to think about it for the time being.
On this day, He Yun suddenly received a letter, a letter signed by the editorial department of "Science Fiction Literature and Art" magazine.
Looking at the date of the letter, it should have been sent more than ten days ago, but I didn't expect it to be sent to school today.
"Science fiction magazine? Didn't you refuse to do it before? Why are there still letters coming? Could it be a mistake? ”
He Yun muttered secretly, and after thinking for a while, he finally returned to the dormitory with the letter.
Sitting down at the table, he carefully tore open the somewhat strange letter.
From it, he pulled out a piece of stationery.
When he read the letter, he was completely stunned.
"What is this? A good horse eats back grass? Or is it deliberately humiliating me? ”
He Yunzhen didn't expect that this letter was actually a power of attorney.
It turned out that this was not a reply letter at all, but a letter of authorization, the general meaning of this letter of authorization was that the magazine "Science Fiction Literature and Art" had taken a fancy to "Dream of the Future" and wanted to publish it in the magazine "Science Fiction Literature and Art", since "People's Literature" magazine was not exclusively authorized to publish "Dream of the Future", they hoped that He Yun could authorize them to also publish this science fiction short story in "Science Fiction Literature and Art".
For this reason, they are willing to pay the same manuscript fee as the "People's Literature" magazine.
In addition, they also promised that this year, they will send his science fiction short story "Dream of the Future" to the upcoming "Galaxy Award" jury, and compete for the first "Galaxy Award", the highest award in the science fiction industry, together with other science fiction novels.
This is the same manuscript fee, and it is sent to the award, to be honest, He Yun said that it was fake if he was not impressed.
After all, it's a galaxy award!
It is difficult for even the more famous writers to win such awards.
Just like the famous science fiction writer Mr. Liu Cixin in later generations, he once won eight consecutive Galaxy Awards, and it was because of him that he completely pushed domestic science fiction to the world, triggered a jubilation in the world science fiction industry, and made the science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem" go to the "altar".
"Alas...... This temptation is indeed a bit big! Do I agree or disagree with ......? He Yun couldn't help but secretly ponder.
