And just when everyone was talking about the science fiction novel "Dream of the Future", the "Contemporary" magazine, which was founded by the People's Literature Publishing House, was also quietly released.

Compared with other popular magazines at the moment, "Contemporary" magazine seems to be a bit "unpopular".

The main reason for this is that Contemporary, which is now bimonthly, is only published once every two months.

The frequency of this issuance is low, so naturally there are fewer people to see it.

In addition, the works published in "Contemporary" magazine are not entertaining in themselves, or they are not down-to-earth and popular, so the sales have naturally not been able to rise.

Of course, as a national periodical, the sales of Contemporary, magazine, must be there, but compared with other magazines, the sales are obviously much worse.

At this time, a county in Yunnan Province, a large state-owned enterprise warehouse area.

As Shen Weiguo, who had just retired from the "Million Disarmament", he became an economic policeman in the warehouse area, which is commonly known as the economic police.

For this job, Shen Weiguo is actually quite satisfied, not to mention the salary, in terms of the ease of work, it is much easier than other comrades-in-arms who have returned from retirement.

And this is still working at his own doorstep, and during the holidays, he can go home at any time to take care of his elderly parents and do his filial piety.

Of course, if there is anything to regret, it may be only one.

That's no object!

He is twenty-four years old this year, and he has never been in a relationship yet.

You must know that the current era is not like that of later generations, when "advocating" late marriage and late childbearing, twenty-four years old is actually not too young, especially in Yunnan Province, at such an age, there are many people who have already married and had children, and it can even be said that it accounts for as much as 70% of the total population of marriageable age in Yunnan Province.

And in this regard, although the parents who are getting older day by day don't say it, Shen Weiguo knows very well in his heart that if they don't mention it, it doesn't mean that they don't want to, they just don't want to put pressure on him as a son.

"Defend the country, give! Didn't you ask me to bring the new magazine from the security department for you? I brought it to you! Just when Shen Weiguo sighed secretly, the door opened, and a young man walked in, who looked younger than him.

That's right, the person who came was his colleague and his comrade-in-arms.

His name is Li Kunming, and like him, he is also from Yunnan Province.

He doesn't like to read books, not even newspapers and magazines.

In contrast, Shen Weiguo is the opposite of him.

When he was in the army, he was very fond of reading, and when he returned to the local area after retirement, he also liked to read newspapers and magazines.

Usually, he works in the unit, and every time the postman brings new newspapers and magazines, he will take them and look at them.

And Li Kunming also knows this hobby of his comrade-in-arms, so every time he stops by, he will help his comrades-in-arms and colleagues bring back newly arrived newspapers or magazines.

"Oh...... I'll see, huh, ......? It's actually "Contemporary", which is only released once every two months! Is this a rare magazine? ”

Shen Weiguo took the magazine and looked at it, but he was shocked, and then opened the cover.

He habitually looked at the catalog, and suddenly, he froze.

Perhaps there was a special kind of magic that he couldn't help but flip to seventeen pages along the table of contents.

"Fanghua?" Muttering secretly, Shen Weiguo continued to look down with a hint of curiosity.

"In the endless steppe, there were countless cattle and sheep, and suddenly, a wolf appeared on the left side of the flock, and the shepherd immediately became nervous......"

The beginning is an introduction to the prairie, and then after a few lines, Shen Weiguo realized that these are just literary and artistic soldiers of a certain military art troupe rehearsing a drama.

He then looked down, and suddenly, a familiar feeling came over him.

He seemed to have returned to the battlefield of the past, and all the pictures in the army flashed in his mind at once.

At this moment, he felt like he had returned to the place where he had fought.

The flames of war were raging, the fighting spirit was high, carrying guns, carrying anger against the enemy, braving the rain of bullets, rushing forward.

In his ears, the familiar trumpet sounded again, and one after another figures continued to fall, and countless figures took the bright red banner and rushed straight forward, they did not flinch in the slightest, until they planted the flag on the enemy's position.

"Defend the country! Wei! What's wrong with you? Why are you crying? You okay! ”

Li Kunming gently shook Shen Weiguo's shoulder, looked at his sluggish appearance, and said immediately.

At this time, Shen Weiguo came back to his senses, and at this moment, he found that he was crying.

He looked at the magazine in his hand, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to Li Kunming: "Kunming, there will be a holiday in a few days, let's make an appointment with a few comrades-in-arms and go to the martyrs' cemetery to see them!" ”

"Them?"

When Li Kunming heard Shen Weiguo's words, he was a little puzzled at first, and he was stunned for a moment, but then, he seemed to understand, and after being silent for a while, he nodded solemnly at Shen Weiguo and said, "Okay!" Go and see them, and by the way, go to their parents' house, they are not there, we have to help them do their filial piety! ”

…………

At the same time, a middle-aged man in military uniform wearing glasses was also reading this magazine in a military art troupe in Yunnan Province.

The magazine was given to him by a friend of his, and he didn't plan to read it, after all, he was a soldier, and if he wanted to read it, he would basically only read the internal publications of the army.

It's just that his friend is a deputy head of the Jinling Repertory Troupe, and he happened to be on a business trip from Jinling to Yunnan Province, so he came to visit him by the way.

The deputy head of the regiment was also from the art troupe before, and he was a former comrade-in-arms, but later transferred to the local area.

This magazine is what he recommended to read, and he also said that there is a novel in this magazine that is worth reading, and he specially recommended him to read it, saying that he could consider adapting it into a program of the art troupe and reading it for the troops on the front line.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man took advantage of his free time to open the magazine and went directly to page 17.

"Fanghua? The name seems to ......"

The middle-aged man muttered quietly and continued to look down.

When he finished reading, he was silent for a moment, and after a while, he picked up the phone on the table again, manually dialed the number, and immediately called a person and said to him: "Call everyone to the conference room for a meeting immediately." ”

"Yes, Captain!"

Sanshui Township.

In the evening, it was half past nine at this time.

As soon as he finished tutoring his sixth sister He Xiaolian, He Yun returned to his room and sat down at the table.

In the afternoon, he read the historical materials for three hours.

At this moment, his whole head was confused.

And when he opened the "Historical Records" and was about to continue reading the chapters of "Qin Shi Huang Benji", he couldn't read it.

"Why don't you read another book?" He Yun whispered to himself, and picked up the "Zizhi Tongjian" on the side, but as soon as he read a few lines, he suddenly felt that he couldn't stand it.

There was no way, in the end, he had to open the cardboard box that was placed aside, picked up the book "Language Rhetoric" on the top and read it.
