014: Brother, are you in the water?

Following

A news of "sky-high remuneration: 500 words per thousand, a small newspaper asked for a manuscript, but was rejected miserably", which was first reported by a gossip tabloid in Hong Kong. Between the lines of the article, there have been many discussions around Ni Frame, "Dongxing Daily", "Five Hundred Words in a Thousand Words" and other news. And once this gossip tabloid was put on sale that day, it didn't take long for it to be bought out, and the daily sales of less than 10,000 were forced to be more than 40,000 copies by a piece of news. More than quadrupled. And the hot topic they threw out has also begun to be hotly discussed by readers, some say that "Dongxing Daily" is proud, some say that Ni Frame is stupid, some discuss the unscientific nature of 1,000 words and 500 subjects, and some praise the book writing is really profitable.

Obviously, as soon as the news of this sky-high remuneration was reported, it was directly hotly discussed, and then many media followed the hype, what inside information, what exclusive reports, endlessly, during which there were some photos of Ni Frame and Xiao Tang in the tea restaurant, Ni Frame crossed Erlang's legs, with a proud look, and with some text descriptions, some people have begun to describe the situation at that time. Of course, it was just some pen speculation, but it was written so miraculously that it overwhelmed the gunfire incident that occurred on Canton Road yesterday morning.

Until the end, all newspapers in Hong Kong began to discuss this topic, but most of the newspapers unanimously ridiculed Ni Frame for not being satisfied, and 500 words were not satisfied, and of course, there were also those who scolded the "Dongxing Daily" for being stupid and having a lot of money.

Hong Kong is worthy of being a metropolis, and the media industry is extremely strong, but it has been noisy by Hong Kong's newspaper industry for a day. "Dongxing Daily" became popular, and countless Hong Kong people knew that there was also a newspaper called "Dongxing Daily" on Hong Kong Island.

However, what is surprising is that compared with the wind and rain outside the city, the protagonist of this incident, Ni Huan, still does not know about the matter, and is sitting in the study to catch up with the manuscript, which seems quite quiet.

However, this tranquility did not last long, it was interrupted by a rapid phone ringing, and Ni Frame, who put down the pen and paper in his hand, heard a woman's roar as soon as he connected to the phone: "Brother, is your brain flooded?" ”

"Ashu, what's the matter! Makes you so angry? After hearing his sister Yishu's voice, Ni Frame couldn't help frowning, this was the first time to split his head and cover his face, which made him very puzzled.

"What's the matter?" Yi Shu was about to be laughed at by his brother, five hundred words in a thousand words, don't want to say no, this almost subverted Yi Shu's perception of his brother in the past, and said a little sourly: "What else can I do, five hundred words in a thousand words, you don't want to introduce my sister to me, why do you want to refuse?" Now the newspapers say that you don't know how to do it, and you are not satisfied with a thousand words and five hundred, and all newspapers in Hong Kong are now reading your jokes! Now there is only one newspaper in Hong Kong, "Ming Pao", is helping you speak, and the news is getting more and more intense, and even Mr. Cha has written an article for you: "Don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice, the cold plum is proud of the snow, it is the style of the literati" can suppress the guidance of public opinion"

Ni Huan didn't read the newspaper today because he had to rush the manuscript, and at this time Yishu said a lot of things that made him feel foggy. As soon as Yishu's voice fell, he couldn't help but say: "What did I refuse, there are still five hundred words, how do you know?" ”

Ni Quan was also a little puzzled, he only said to Jin Yong about five hundred words and showed off a wave, and he didn't mention anyone else at all, how could his sister know.

Yi Shu on the other side was also silent for a while after hearing Ni Frame's words, and he didn't even know what happened to his brother for a long time.

Immediately, he reminded, "You can find a newspaper and read it!" ”

Ni Box said "um" and then hung up the phone, went to the newspaper column in the hall and took a copy of today's "Sing Tao Daily", just glanced at his brain and "buzzed", and finally even his eyes were red, what is this written on a horse, how can I be embarrassed to go to that "Dongxing Daily" to submit articles when you write like this. How else can I make 500 thousand words, I read five newspapers in a row, the content is different, all about the love-hate entanglement between Ni Frame and "Dongxing Daily", the most hateful is a newspaper called "Daily Express", all kinds of trampling down "Dongxing Daily", and finally shouted for Ni Frame in the air, saying "You are not worthy!" ”。

Public opinion is lively, but Ni Frame is dripping blood in his heart, you must know that he is the opposite of "Dongxing Daily" when he is reported by the Hong Kong media, if he still goes to "Dongxing Daily" to contribute, what kind of person will he Ni Frame become, and he will not be laughed at to death.

"Who is it, who is it?" Ni Frame now has the mind to peel the rumormongers alive.

At the same time, in a café of the Peninsula Hotel, Huang Zhan, who was also one of the four great talents of later generations, was chatting with his friend Gu Jiahui, but unexpectedly, Gu Jiahui on the opposite side exclaimed violently, threw the newspaper he had brought with him to Huang Zhan and said, "Look at the big news." ”

Following the direction of Gu Jiahui's finger, Huang Zhan tilted his head and looked at it for a while, and then gasped: "I'll push your lungs, Ni Frame is well developed on the street!" Gu Jiahui couldn't help but glance at Huang Huang, pointed to the title of the article and said, "You can see it clearly, Ni Frame he refused." ”

Huang Zhan just glanced at the title, "Five hundred words in a thousand words were rejected, why is Ni Frame such a big name." I couldn't help but laugh and said: "This decrepit boy, his brain is in water, and he doesn't make money if he gives money, don't say five hundred words, give me two hundred to do this work, I used to think he was very clever, why can't he get along with money?" ”

Huang Zhan here is still puzzled, Ni Frame is thinking about it, but Gu Jiahui on the other side said with a smile: "This "Dongxing Daily" is really interesting, I dare to give five hundred words in a thousand words, I have never heard of this newspaper before, Lao Huang, you might as well submit a manuscript to them, with your fame, I think their price should not be low." ”

"Forget it, I guess this news is released to bluff people, even if the "Oriental Daily" and "Sing Tao Daily" give me only one hundred and eighteen, a small newspaper that doesn't know how much money can have, don't let me write it in two months."

Although Huang Zhan ridiculed but was indeed shocked by this news, and Huang Zhan was not the only one who was shocked on this day, it can be said that the entire cultural circle was shocked, many people read the newspaper and inquired about the news of "Dongxing Daily", while ordinary readers sighed that writing books came quickly, and at the same time wondered why the newspaper "Dongxing Daily" dared to give such a high remuneration.

Anyway, at the end of the day, Ni Frame became popular, and won several titles one after another, "The Most Profitable Novelist in Hong Kong", "A Leader in the Cultural Circle", "A Writer Who Was Only Born for Literature", "A Real Storyteller, He is Full of Stories", and with the triumphant song of Ni Frame, he was almost praised on the altar, and the "Dongxing Daily" as a pendant was also in the limelight, and he was familiar with Hong Kong Island.

This also laid a good precursor for the newspaper's subsequent publication.

At this time, in a separate bungalow in Tsim Sha Tsui, West Kowloon, Zhao Yazhi, who was ordered by her father to be at home, took two days off from the company early, and was sitting curled up on the sofa to watch TV with her mother, but at this time there were many newspapers beside her, which were thrown aside in such a mess, and most of those newspapers were reporting.

Zhao Yazhi didn't know why, maybe he was worried that he was implicated, or maybe he wanted to see if there was a man in the report, early in the morning, he begged his mother to buy dozens of newspapers, and after reading them one by one, she found that there was no news that the man was arrested, she was relieved, after all, she was sent to the hospital single-handedly, and she was timid and ran away directly.

Fortunately, she couldn't see Xiao Tang's back, otherwise she wouldn't have turned a blind eye to the news of "sky-high remuneration".

"Click" Just when Zhao Yazhi and his mother were watching TV, the door of the house was opened with a key, and Zhao's father, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked in from outside the door.

"Daddy, how's it going?" Seeing her father coming back, Zhao Yazhi hurriedly asked, and Zhao's mother on the side also looked at her husband with eager eyes.

"Don't ask about this matter, and don't tell anyone about Ah Zhi saving people in the future." Father Zhao didn't answer the mother and daughter, but said with a solemn face.

"Ahh The mother and daughter were already in a nervous mood, and then they were frightened by Zhao's father and exclaimed directly, and Zhao's mother complained and said: "What, if you don't make it clear, I and Ah Zhi are worried." ”

"Okay!" Zhao's father shook his head helplessly and said: "You are all rotten in your stomach, don't talk nonsense, this is also what I inquired about, last night there were two clubs in Poland Street, hundreds of people and many bars were smashed at night, among them, the club boss who was beaten was the one who was sent to the hospital yesterday, and the person Ah Zhi saved was the person who beat people, do you understand now?" ”

Mother Zhao was stunned, and then asked worriedly: "What can I do about this, in this way, won't Ah Zhi offend a club boss?" What can I do? ”

Seeing his wife's panicked appearance, Zhao's father couldn't bear to scare her, and glanced at his daughter who also suffered from gains and losses, and then said: "Things are not so complicated, as long as Ah Zhi saves that person and doesn't talk nonsense, this matter has nothing to do with Ah Zhi, after all, Ah Zhi is also threatened, even if he goes to the police station, Ah Zhi is right, don't worry." ”

"Is that so?" Mother Zhao glanced at her husband with some disbelief.

"Don't worry, Ah Zhi can go to work tomorrow as if nothing happened." Father Zhao nodded and comforted his wife.

"Alright then!" Hearing this, Zhao's mother nodded reassuringly and said: "As long as it's okay, I'm so worried that Ah Zhi will be hurt by those old boys, those people will go crazy and beat people when they see them, and the Hong Kong government doesn't care about them, I really don't know when this kind of day will be a head." ”

Although Mother Zhao complained, she was not as worried as she was just now at this time.

Suddenly, Zhao Yazhi's mother patted her head on the sofa, and then thought, "Husband, I almost forgot, Ms. Zheng is going to bring that Xiao Huang to the house as a guest today, do you want to buy some vegetables and come back, I will greet the guests at noon today." ”

"You're going out again? Why didn't you say it earlier, I'll bring some with me when I get home. ”

As soon as he heard his wife shouting that he was going out to buy vegetables, Zhao's father was suddenly unhappy.

On the other side, Zhao Yazhi asked a little puzzled: "Mommy, who is that Xiao Huang, and who is Ms. Zheng?" ”

"Ms. Zheng, Ms. Zheng is an Aunt Zheng who came to the house yesterday, and Xiao Huang is the person introduced to you by Aunt Zheng." Mother Zhao thought about the wording for a long time before she said in a hurry.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Yazhi's mother's voice fell, Zhao Yazhi exploded, and said a little angrily: "What! Why do you bring people to your house without their consent, you are too good, I don't see you, who of you likes to see. ”

After saying that, Zhao Yazhi walked out of the door angrily, and he had the posture of running away from home.

"Why are you going?" Seeing that his daughter was wearing slippers and was about to go out, Zhao's father shouted without anger.

"What? I'm going to drink! Zhao Yazhi was a little annoyed that her parents gave her a marriage every day, and she was afraid that she would not be able to get married all day long, so she said a little unhappily.

"Don't go!" Father Zhao said again.

Zhao Yazhi rolled his eyes, "I'll go, anyway, you don't want to see me stay at home." ”

But just when Zhao Yazhi was just about to go out, the doorbell outside suddenly rang, and subconsciously Zhao Yazhi leaned over to the door to take a look, and suddenly his face fell, and he glared at his parents with some hatred, turned his head and ran upstairs with a "da-da-da", went directly back to his room, locked his door as soon as he could, and fell on the bed with some irritability.

He hit the pillow on the bed, pinched it round and flattened, and scolded in his mouth, "Damn it's all your fault, I can't go to work." ”

In Zhao Yazhi's opinion, if it weren't for Xiao Tang's street hit, she wouldn't have to stay at home today, she wouldn't have to stay at home, and she wouldn't have to see that little yellow who was working hard, it was really annoying.
