Chapter 16: Aftertaste

In the past two years alone, to tell the truth, it is definitely the most popular talk show in the country, and next year Xiao Cui and Zhao Benshan Song will go to the Spring Festival Gala alone, contributing to the classic performance of President Mountain who can compete for the Spring Festival Gala sketch.

"Why did Zongyang TV invite me?"

"Because your new book has been recognized by the mainstream circle, you used to be a rebellious and talented romance novel writer, although the book is a bestseller, but in the eyes of Zhongyang TV, it can't be on the stage.

"Yu Xiang" is written too profoundly and has extremely high literary value, especially the revelation and portrayal of social contradictions in the United States, which has caused extensive social discussion and made the people above pay attention to you. ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Shuangling pursed her lips, and she grabbed Jiang Changsheng's arm: "Changsheng, how long will Yu Xiang write, this book is not good-looking, it is too depressing."

Hurry up and finish and write a new romance novel.

I did my best to help you publish the book overseas, and you promised me to write a romance novel that meets my heart. ”

At Jiang Changsheng's request, Blue Life and Death Love, My Robot Girlfriend, and Your Name were translated into three versions, Devil Script, Stick Text, and English, and published overseas.

The publishing channel took Zheng Shuangling a lot of favors to get it, and Jiang Changsheng promised to write a custom romance novel for her in order to reward her.

Jiang Changsheng originally planned to put aside his pen for the time being after writing Yu Xiang and put his energy into his singing career, but as for studying, he planned to take a leave of absence.

Jiang Changsheng plans to enter art colleges in the future, and the college entrance examination results are not required.

What, bragged before that you wanted to take the top prize? It's all said, that's bragging.

Although Jiang Changsheng's memory has greatly increased after his rebirth, does the champion take it if he wants to? There aren't too many gods in the country.

In 1998, Zhang Zhenfeng, the champion of the national college entrance examination, scored a total of 748 points, a difference of 2 points.

Jiang Changsheng was in the 2000 college entrance examination, and the top student in the college entrance examination in Henan Province that year was He Biyu, who was only 14 years old, and directly got a perfect score of 750 points.

If you don't work hard, you don't know how big the gap is between you and Xueshen.

Jiang Changsheng plans to make a surprise attack a few months before the college entrance examination, with his current knowledge base and learning ability, there is no problem in the first line. After all, the test results can't be too bad, and he is afraid that he will be complained of being illiterate in the entertainment industry in the future.

"Changsheng, why are you distracted?" Since being picked on by Meng Jia, Zheng Shuangling has completely let herself go, she put Jiang Changsheng's arm on her chest, kept shaking, and began to be coquettish: "Say okay, customize a love novel, okay!" ”

Jiang Changsheng saw the goddess coquettish for the first time, her voice was delicate and soft, and the peak was towering, and he couldn't stand it in his heart, feeling that he was going to be congested again, so he hurriedly agreed.

"No problem, I'll write it for you after Yu Xiang finishes writing, Yu Xiang writes slowly, it is estimated that it will take two more months to write, in order to make up for your waiting, I will write two books for you at that time."

After getting Zheng Shuangling and confirming the date of going to Zongyang TV to record the program with Meng Jia, Jiang Changsheng returned to the room and continued the creation of "Yu Xiang".

The book "Aftertaste" is basically original, and the subject matter is realistic, so it is relatively slow to write.

Jiang Changsheng is very interested in this book, because it is completely his own work, and the sense of accomplishment of creation is overwhelming.

The story line of "Aftertaste" is relatively long, with the timeline from 1998 to 2008, spanning ten years.

The male protagonist Yu Qing is a talented young poet, but he was dumped by his girlfriend because of poverty and was depressed.

The heroine Chen Xiang, a Chinese girl who immigrated with her parents, has a childhood boyfriend, who was shot on campus, and her boyfriend died on the spot, and her life was gloomy.

In order to relieve his depression, Yu Qing published some love poems on the Internet, which happened to be seen by Chen Xiang's international students, who read these poems to Chen Xiang in order to comfort Chen Xiang.

Chen Xiang got acquainted with Yu Qing because of this, and the two went from strange to familiar through the link of the Internet, and finally developed a transnational online relationship.

Jiang Changsheng's book, although there is online dating, is only a form, and he focuses on depicting the social development and changes of the two countries in China and the United States in the past ten years.

It shows the powerlessness and humility of the little people under the impact of the tide of the times.

"A grain of ash of the times is a mountain when it falls on everyone's head."

Yu Qing is a poet, high and arrogant, when he was studying, the poet has a very high status, he is very respected, but after graduation, China's economy took off, the values of society changed, everything was on par with money, and everyone did everything to make money.

Yu Qing has no money, and he is not good at making money, from being respected to being spurned, he is very uncomfortable, but he always adheres to the bottom line in his heart, and he is constantly frustrated because of this.

He rejected the hype routine of the publishing house, and his poems could not be published; went to a middle school as a Chinese teacher, refused to cooperate with the school to sell books, and was framed by the principal; Doing business on their own, refusing to sell counterfeit and shoddy products, and being beaten by competitors with counterfeit and shoddy products at low prices.

The heroine Chen Xiang grew up in China when she was a child, and she was also tortured after immigrating with her parents, her first boyfriend died in a campus shooting case, she refused to participate in her classmates' marijuana party and was ostracized, she refused the tutor's unspoken rules and was rated C in her final grades, and she also suffered racial discrimination many times after work.

The tone of this book is depressing, and the only hope is that the male and female protagonists encourage each other to redeem each other in the process of online dating.

The first confession, the first voice, the first video, although the world is different, the two are each other's spiritual pillars.

Although there is warmth in the book, the background is still sad, and Jiang Changsheng has already thought about the ending.

The male protagonist Yu Qing has achieved nothing after ten years of stumbling. Fate played a joke on him, he published a poem on the Internet ten years ago, and was dug up by boring netizens, thus becoming popular on the Internet.

Yu Qing became popular, all kinds of business orders came one after another, in the face of the temptation of money, this time Yu Qing compromised, he and Chen Xiang have been dating online for ten years, and they have been separated. He wants to live with Chen Xiang, and he needs money.

For the sake of love, he gave up the bottom line and became an Internet celebrity, and when he made enough money to buy a ticket and fly to the United States, he saw that it was indeed Chen Xiang's cold corpse.

Chen Xiang was shot dead by the police of the United States on the grounds that he did not cooperate with the inspection.

Yu Qing had no way to appeal, and with the cooperation of Chen Xiang's parents, he bought a gun, killed the policeman who shot Chen Xiang, and then committed suicide by swallowing the gun.

Jiang Changsheng wrote this way to show readers a real rice country.

In this era, the atmosphere of admiring foreign countries is very serious, and foreign atmosphere is a common word for boasting people.

A bunch of scholars are known to rely on the domestic information cocoon to beautify the United States, and by next year, the famous Haval girl will appear, Jiang Changsheng is to tell everyone through this book that the United States also has an ugly reality, and the so-called dream of the United States is nothing more than that.

Jiang Changsheng has a great advantage in writing this book, because he knows the future social development, so when he describes many things, it is natural and profound, logical and convincing.

In "Yu Xiang", Jiang Changsheng left a lot of easter eggs, such as the terrorist attack on the Mi Congress, the subprime mortgage crisis, the popularity of online shopping in China, and the holding of the Olympic Games

Of course, at some time points, he still blurred it.
