375: "Zhantan State!" 》
At this moment, Lu Yao, who was "deeply hit", looked very embarrassed, he smiled at Editor-in-Chief He, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Editor-in-Chief He, Comrade He Yun, I think the time is almost up, why don't we go to the PEN meeting to talk at the scene!" ”
"Hmm...... It's true, the time is indeed about the same, so let's get over! When Editor-in-Chief He heard this, he immediately looked at the watch on his wrist, and then couldn't help but raise his head and say.
In this way, the three of them left the office and came to the scene of the pen meeting not far away.
The scale of this PEN meeting was not very large, and Contemporary, a few potential authors were invited, so the venue for the PEN meeting was directly arranged in a small conference room of the magazine.
Everyone sat together, drinking tea and talking.
At this pen meeting, He Yun not only got to know famous writers such as Lu Yao, but also met many young writers who had never heard of it in later generations.
Of course, just because later generations have not heard of their names does not mean that they are not excellent.
He Yun knows this well, so he has always maintained an attitude of learning from each other at the pen meeting, chatting with everyone and discussing literature.
The PEN meeting lasted for about a day and a half, and it was not until the afternoon of the next day that He Yun left the office of Contemporary.
…………
After returning to Hunan Normal University, He Yun lived a life of teaching manuscripts again.
And this peaceful life lasted until late December.
Until this day, he received a letter from Huang Yi again.
As he expected, the letter sent by Huang Yi this time was for the cooperation between the two sides.
Previously, he had been very hesitant, so he kept dragging his feet and did not reply to the other party.
Now Huang Yi has sent a letter for this matter, obviously unwilling to give up cooperating with him.
"The first way to work together or the second? Or simply reject him? ”
He Yun pinched the letter in his hand and couldn't help muttering to himself.
"Let's choose the second option! However, cooperation is possible, but the new book will not be considered until at least the second half of next year. ”
In the end, He Yun chose to invest in shares with royalties.
This is a rare opportunity after all, and it would be a shame to miss it.
What's more, in exchange for the royalties of two books for 10% of the equity of the publishing house, this deal is still quite considerable.
Moreover, the copyright of these two books is still in his hands, and it does not belong to the publishing house, and only the traditional publishing rights of these two books belong to the publishing house.
In other words, other ownership, including film and television adaptation copyrights, still belongs to He Yun.
In addition, there is another point in the cooperation that is extremely beneficial to He Yun.
That is, as long as the two books can help the publisher earn 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, the cooperation agreement can take effect.
Such a standard is very low for him, as long as there is no accident, He Yun can achieve this goal by writing two books with his eyes closed.
Moreover, in fact, He Yun does not attach much importance to the economic benefits brought to him by the publishing house, but the connections brought to him by this cooperation.
As for the two books in the cooperation agreement, what are the themes?
Although Huang Yi didn't mention it, He Yun understood it very well in his heart, and he definitely hoped that He Yun would continue the style of "Savage Divine Sea Record".
After all, the fantasy market has gradually been opened, and at this moment, Huang Yi is also relying on his "fantasy" to create a new world.
If at this time, the publishing house under his name has He Yun, the originator of "fantasy", to contribute, then whether it is the "fantasy" field or the publishing house under his name, it will be profitable.
It can be seen that Huang Yi had already "calculated" many things before proposing this cooperation.
He Yun naturally knew this, but why did he agree to cooperate?
The reason is actually very simple, only by playing the sign of "fantasy" and making this cake bigger and stronger, can everyone make a profit.
Since it was a win-win situation, why did He Yun refuse?
Of course he will not refuse again!
…………
The closer we get to the end of the year, the fewer classes there will be, and no, after the last class in the afternoon, all the classes for the semester will be over.
After explaining the approximate time of the final exam to his students, He Yun was completely relaxed.
A few days later, he finally received a sample issue from the magazine "Science Literature and Art".
He flipped through the pages and found that the magazine had directly excerpted the most wonderful volume of his science fiction "Skynet", which was more than 10,000 words and occupied a large part of the entire magazine.
As for the whole book, it is estimated that it will not be published until at least the first half of next year.
Two days ago, a sample issue of "The Twelve Days of Life and Death" was sent to him, which was published and distributed by the People's Literature Publishing House.
As for the traditional version of the sci-fi "Skynet", although there is no news from Xiangjiang yet, there should be no major problems.
By the end of the month, He Yun's realist masterpiece "The Journey of Life" had completed the second volume, which took about a month and a half, which was relatively fast.
…………
On this day, the weather was sunny and sunny, which added a little brightness to this winter.
At the moment, at the entrance of the library.
As soon as He Yun came out of it, he saw a familiar figure walking towards him.
"Teacher He! I've been waiting for you for a long time, and you're finally out! ”
"It's Li Yan! What's wrong? Looking for me? Seeing that it was Li Yan who was coming, He Yun asked with a smile.
"Teacher He, are you free now? I'd like to ask you to help me look at the manuscript I wrote! Li Yan didn't beat around the bush, she directly said her intentions.
"Manuscript? Your new book? He Yun was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at her, and saw that she was indeed holding a thick stack of manuscript paper in her hand.
"That's right! Isn't this going to college, and I have a lot of free time, this semester, I wrote a medium-length article, and I would like to ask you to help take a look at it, and by the way, give some advice. Li Yan immediately explained.
"Okay, can you give it to me!?" He Yun nodded and continued to ask.
"Okay, Teacher He, here you go!" Li Yan saw that He Yun agreed very happily, and hurriedly handed the stack of manuscript paper in his hand to He Yun solemnly.
However, after He Yun took it, he didn't immediately look at the manuscript, but took the manuscript, raised his head and continued to say to Li Yan: "Let's talk while walking!" ”
"Good...... Good! Li Yan didn't know why He Yun didn't read the manuscript immediately, but at this moment, she was a little apprehensive in her heart, and after answering the question, she followed He Yun's steps and walked forward.
Along the way, He Yun and Li Yan chatted.
For Li Yan, He Yun can be regarded as her literary guide, but for various reasons, Li Yan's writing path is not very smooth.
But she never gave up, she studied hard while accumulating heavy literary knowledge.
It wasn't until she was admitted to Hunan Normal University that she picked up the pen again and began to continue her "literary dream".
To this end, it took her a semester to write this book of more than 80,000 words.
Moreover, before this, she did not reveal it to He Yun, in order to surprise He Yun.
But she never expected that there was no surprise what she was waiting for, only apprehension.
Because of this, He Yun didn't read the manuscript at all, but just chatted with her about some things in study.
"For you undergraduates, laying a good foundation is the key, if you have the opportunity, it is best to be able to continue to study in graduate school, after completing graduate school, it is very likely to be able to stay in school, whether you continue to study for a doctorate or stay in school to teach, it is a very good choice."
"Also, if you really like literature and want to go down this road all the way, you can come to me at any time, and you don't have to wait for the manuscript to be written and then come to me like today!"
"Ah...... Mr. He, I really didn't mean to do this, I just wanted to...... I just want to surprise you. ”
At this moment, Li Yan's eyes suddenly turned red when she heard this, she didn't expect He Yun to be "angry" because of this.
If she had known this, she wouldn't have done much.
"That's it! Don't bother with it! The teacher didn't blame you, the teacher just thought that if you really like literature, you should come to me generously. ”
When He Yun saw that Li Yan's tears were about to come out, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This girl, why do you love to cry so much!
This is very similar to his sixth sister.
…………
When I returned to the dormitory, it was already half past four in the afternoon.
He Yun was going to take a good look at the manuscript written by Li Yan first, and then go to the cafeteria to eat.
So he sat down at his desk, laid the manuscript flat on the table, took out a pencil from the drawer, and read it.
"Smoke lock Qingqiu? This name has some meaning, a bit of Qiong Yao-style naming style, romance theme? ”
Regarding Qiong Yao, a controversial "romance master", He Yun naturally has his own unique views.
In his opinion, Qiong Yao drama has become a film and television symbol in later generations, especially from the nineties to the early twenty-first century.
But from a literary point of view, Qiong Yao's still has many flaws.
Especially on the "three views", He Yun does not agree.
However, disagreeing does not mean that He Yun will not pay attention.
Compared with "Zhang Ailing", "Qiong Yao's" works are another style.
More importantly, throughout the 80s, as the martial arts style represented by Xiangjiang and the romance style represented by "Qiong Yao" swept the mainland, two extremes appeared for a while.
On the one hand, young people, especially students, like to see these two types very much, among which Guangdong Province, which is at the forefront of reform and opening up.
On the other hand, teachers and parents, as well as mainstream writers, scoff at these two types of subjects, or even disdain them.
In their opinion, martial arts is not nutritious, it is not as good as pure literature, and it is a cancer, a grain of rat feces that poisons teenagers and young people, and must be banned and banned.
But with the rampant piracy and the late 80s, film and television dramas adapted from Qiong Yao's works were introduced to the mainland, and such views gradually ceased to be the mainstream.
In the 90s, Qiong Yao's dramas such as "Wanjun", "Misty and Rainy", and "On the Water Side" were popular, which directly raised Qiong Yao's fame to a very high level.
Of course, Qiong Yao's fame reached its peak in the mainland thanks to the hit of another drama.
That's right!
This drama is the drama that Hunan Provincial TV broadcasts every winter and summer vacation - "Huanzhu Gege".
It is precisely because of the ratings myth created by this drama that Qiong Yao drama has flourished in the mainland, and even dominated almost all TV stations for a time.
So much so that later film and television dramas such as "Deep Love and Rain", "A Curtain of Dreams" and so on also created terrifying ratings.
It can be seen that since the 80s, Qiong Yao, a writer and her works, has been influencing young people in many continents.
…………
At the table, He Yun shook his head slightly.
"It seems that this girl must have seen a lot of poisonous chicken soup!"
He smiled, took the manuscript, and continued to look down.
Time passed little by little, and He Yun was also immersed in the story written by Li Yan.
I saw him uncovering the manuscript paper in one hand and holding a pencil in the other hand to mark some places.
Although this story seems to imitate Qiong Yao's writing, both the writing and the story structure are very good.
The whole book is about 80,000 words, describing the story of a daughter and a middle-level officer in the provincial capital of Hunan Province during the Republic of China.
Although the setting is a bit cliché, the storyline has ups and downs, both love and hatred, as well as family and country feelings, especially the male protagonist, who has the bloody nature of protecting his family and defending the country.
Moreover, as far as the story itself is concerned, although most of them are fictional, and even from the perspective of He Yun's professional literature, the logic is a little unreasonable in some places, but this does not affect the wholeness.
In particular, the famous battle plots such as the defense of the provincial capital of Hunan Province and the defense of Yancheng involved in it add some highlights to the whole book.
At this moment, this can't help but remind He Yun of a later film and television work "Battle of Changsha".
Although there are still many differences between the two, some of the plots are surprisingly similar.
"Tsk...... This girl can! ”
At this moment, He Yun put down the pencil in his hand and couldn't help but sigh heavily, with a smile on his face.
Seriously, the one created by Li Yan called "Smoke Lock Qingqiu" really shouldn't be called this name, it's too "Qiong Yao Fan".
Maybe it would be better to change the name.
As for what it should be called, He Yun really couldn't say it for a while, but he always felt that something was missing from this name.
"What's missing?"
At this moment, He Yun couldn't help but fall into a deep thought.
He pondered and pondered, and suddenly patted his head, as if he had thought of something, and whispered, "That's right! Spirits! What's missing is spirit! ”
Indeed, although Li Yan's romance part occupies a large part, in the second half, it raises the personal idea of "small family" to the height of "everyone".
And the two protagonists and the other supporting roles have really done it, the rise and fall of the family and the country is the responsibility of the husband.
This kind of qualitative sublimation not only makes the subject matter change slightly, but also makes the name have to be reconsidered.
"Maybe it's more appropriate to change the name ...... "Zhantan State"!"
