Chapter 223: What Xiangjiang Doesn't Have

The bus drove for a while before it stopped in front of a hotel.

The banquet was of a private nature, but when I went in, there were several tables set up inside.

The reporters who had previously interviewed the exchange group followed like shadows, taking pictures first and then taking their seats.

Tang Yuewen leaned into Jiang Yulou's ear and complained: "How can these reporters stay ghosted, and they can be seen anywhere?" ”

"It is estimated that Mr. Jin arranged it." Jiang Yulou replied.

In his mind, Mr. Kim is not only a writer, but also a newspaper manager and entrepreneur, and all his actions are based on business. He invited the exchange delegation from the mainland to the banquet, in addition to really having the intention of exchange, he still wanted to promote "Ming Pao".

Jin Yong and his wife, Feng Xianzhi, Wang Meng, and a few senior old comrades sat at a table, but Jiang Yulou was not on the list.

Although his grades are good, he is too young and has little experience.

In fact, it's okay to let him sit and eat with a group of old comrades, and he himself is awkward.

What's more, he's hungry now, so he really doesn't have much to talk to.

Tang Yuewen said with a sad face: "I won't eat Western food again, I don't like steak and pasta." ”

Although Western food is a representative of high-end cuisine in Xiangjiang, not everyone likes it.

Jiang Yulou held the girl's little hand and doted: "If it's not delicious, I'll eat a little bit to give the master's family a little face." Turning around, I'll take you to a street food stall. ”

"Okay, there are so many delicious roadside stalls in Xiangjiang that I hate myself for eating too much yesterday." Tang Yuewen cheered and jumped for joy.

Jiang Yulou raised a finger on the side of his mouth, "Be quiet, don't be heard, it's rude." ”

"Oh." Tang Yuewen stuck out her tongue, cute to death!

But fortunately, today's dinner is not Western food, but Chinese food, and the dishes are quite hearty and very appetizing to everyone.

Not long after Mr. Jin came to Xiangjiang, he divorced his first wife. The second wife is a beautiful journalist, and after the two got married, they started from scratch and earned a family business.

Later, because of emotional disagreement, he divorced, and married his current wife, who was called "Little Dragon Girl" by book fans.

Mrs. Jin is twenty-nine years younger than Mr. Jin, beautiful and elegant, beautiful and intelligent, and she has a close relationship with everyone in just a few words.

"You don't have to call me Mrs., Shengfen, just call me May. My husband used to come from the mainland, and I heard that there are many relatives who still live in the mainland.

Alas, he has always wanted to return to his hometown, and he doesn't know if he has a chance. ”

"There's going to be a chance." Jiang Yulou said: "Now that our government is leading the reform and opening up strategy, it will not be long before Mr. Jin's wish will be realized. ”

"Huh? What is Reform and Opening-up? ”

Jiang Yulou gave a brief introduction. He was very careful in his choice of words, saying only what was reported in the newspaper, and not saying a word else.

"Great, my husband will be happy to know the news."

Jiang Yulou didn't take this seriously, in his memory, Mr. Jin had to wait until 92 years to return to his hometown.

Mrs. Jin said again: "Is Mr. Jiang also a writer?" ”

"Well, I've written a few novels." Jiang Yulou said modestly.

Yes?

This time Mrs. Jin was really surprised, she originally thought that Jiang Yulou was a staff member of the exchange group, after all, he was so young.

Mrs. Jin smiled lightly and said, "Because of my husband, I also like novels." I don't know what works Mr. Jiang has written? ”

"Oh, I'm ashamed, I've been writing for less than two years, and I haven't had a very good work."

"Really?" Mrs. King blinked, but felt that this was reasonable.

Jiang Yulou scratched his head and said: "Actually, my main business is to be a student, and writing is just a hobby. ”

"Mrs. Jin, don't believe his words, don't look at this kid as young, but he is a top student of Yan University. Although he didn't write for a long time, he wrote a novel that sold more than 700,000 copies. An old comrade couldn't help but say.

"It turns out that Mr. Jiang is so amazing!"

A look of surprise flashed in Mrs. King's eyes.

"Not only that, but he is also a poet and has published a collection of poems." Someone else added.

"Have you ever published a poetry collection?"

Mrs. Jin was not calm now, she thought she was just a young man, but she didn't expect to be a writer.

Especially when a few of someone's poems were read out in public, Mrs. King's expression changed completely when she saw him.

How to say it, huh...... It's like meeting a fan of an idol.

Jiang Yulou smiled bitterly again and again, it has only been a few days since he came to Xiangjiang, and his underwear has been picked up, and he still picked it up by himself.

There was a lot of movement on their side, and even Mr. Jin noticed it.

At this time, Mr. Kim was chatting with Feng Xianzhi in a low voice.

He has a deep relationship with the mainland, and he has even had a paper and pen exchange with that person, not an ordinary person.

He glanced at Jiang Yulou and intuitively felt that this young man was not ordinary.

So, he pointed to Jiang Yulou and said, "Mr. Feng, is that young man also a writer?" ”

"That's right, his name is Jiang Yulou, the youngest writer in our writers' association, and he is also the hottest writer in the mainland in the past two years." Feng Xianzhi nodded.

"Oh?" Mr. Kim was amazed: "Is this young writer writing serious literature?" ”

"No, it should be considered popular literature." At this time, Feng Xianzhi's concept of serious literature and popular literature became clearer in his mind.

Then, he introduced Jiang Yulou's achievements in the mainland.

At this time, Mr. Jin's city government was also moved, "It's better to ask Mr. Jiang to come and sit." ”

Feng Xianzhi nodded, and Wang Meng volunteered to pull Jiang Yulou to the main table: "Come on, come on, Yulou, Mr. Jin wants to talk to you." ”

After taking his seat, Jiang Yulou greeted with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Jin." ”

Mr. Jin smiled kindly: "Mr. Jiang, hello." I just heard Mr. Feng say that you are very good at writing novels. ”

Jiang Yulou said with a smile: "It's not comparable to you, many of your works have been adapted into TV series, and I currently only have one work adapted into a TV series." ”

"Ouch, if a writer's work can be adapted into a film or television work, it proves to be very popular with the public. Mr. Jiang is not simple. I just don't know which work is adapted, but if I have the chance, I want to read it. ”

Jiang Yulou smiled slightly and said: "It is a spy war suspense novel, called "Secret Calculation". ”

"Spy war suspense novels?" Mr. Jin was stunned.

Wang Meng glanced at the two of them and interjected: "Now the most popular in the mainland is "Secret Calculation", not to mention the single book, and the radio drama has been rebroadcast for the third time. The whole Yanjing and even the whole country are discussing it, and CCTV is already filming the TV series "Secret Calculation", and I heard that the investment is as high as one million. ”

"Spy war suspense drama?" Mr. Kim came interested.

The film and television drama industry in Xiangjiang is developed, but there is really no spy war theme, he is really curious.

If it's really good, is it possible to introduce it to Hong Kong, that is, to publish it in their "Ming Pao"?
