Chapter 504: Why not go dancing
The meeting officially started at nine o'clock. Everyone stood up to play the national anthem, and then leaders at all levels gave speeches.
Chairman of the Writers Association Palladium did not attend due to physical condition, but sent a congratulatory letter to the meeting.
Feng Mu, Vice Chairman of the Writers Association, delivered a speech titled "The Motherland and the People Place Their Hopes in You", which aroused warm applause.
In the afternoon, the conference representatives began to discuss in groups. The leaders of the Writers Association participated in the discussions of each group. The one who came to the northwest group to participate in the discussion was Wang Meng, who had just resigned as minister.
Wang Meng shook hands with the representatives of young writers attending the meeting. When it was Fang Minghua's turn, Wang Meng looked at him and said: "Minghua, you resigned as editor-in-chief of "Yanhe"? I see that the editor-in-chief's comments in these issues of your magazine have become Bai Miao? "
"Yes, in April this year, my three-year employment period came to an end. I did not continue to compete for the position, but transferred my personnel relations to the Provincial Writers Association and left the magazine." Fang Minghua told the truth.
"You see your editor-in-chief is doing a good job, why do you refuse to do it? It's such a pity." There was a hint of complaint in Wang Meng's tone.
Fang Minghua smiled and said: "Chairman Wang, your minister has done a good job, why do you say he will quit? It's a pity."
Wang Meng was stunned for a moment after hearing this. , burst into laughter suddenly.
"You, you, you are so sharp-tongued! I am an old man who is almost sixty years old, and you are still young! But it's better to come to the Writers' Association and calm down and write something. What have you written recently?"
" I'm writing a novel about teachers." Fang Minghua briefly talked about his book "Skywalker" without hiding anything.
“It’s good to write about good teachers. When I was working in Yili, it was a border area and the conditions were very difficult. School students and teachers were all suffering. I heard that it is still like this now.” Wang Meng sighed:
“So someone needs to write it to let more people know about it and let the whole society pay attention. Minghua, after your book is published, I will definitely read it!”
“Thank you, Wang Chairman, I will definitely send you a copy when the time comes.”
Wang Meng and Fang Minghua spent the longest time chatting, and others could only envy them.
It’s not that Fang Minghua is too famous, but I heard that he has a personal relationship with him. Who can compare with him?
The discussion at the meeting was held in a harmonious atmosphere. It mainly focused on Feng Mu's speech "The Motherland and the People Place Their Hopes in You" and expressed his personal thoughts.
The other is some exchanges and discussions on literary creation.
In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that this is not an ordinary literary creation seminar. There is no need to talk and talk. The main thing is to bring so many young writers together. It is to encourage people to get to know each other and communicate with each other.
How can a real academic seminar have so many people?
Everyone has meetings and exchanges during the day, and free time at night. They are all young people and they all live in several hotels arranged by the conference. It is a good opportunity to get to know each other and exchange feelings
Yes He also took this opportunity to go to Yanjing to meet classmates, friends and relatives. For example, Lu Yao went to visit his father-in-law and his family.
Fang Minghua and Jia Pingwa live in the same room.
But Jia Pingwa was not in the room tonight. He went to visit a friend in Yanjing, the literary critic Bai Ye.
Bai Ye is a native of Qin Province. He graduated from the Chinese Department of Qin Normal University. He stayed at the school to teach and then transferred to the China Social Sciences Press, a subsidiary of the Academy of Social Sciences.
The two have known each other for a long time, and after Bai Ye came to work in Yanjing, he also supported Jia Pingwa's creation very much. In 1983, Jia Pingwa published "Shangzhou Chulu" which is both an essay and a novel. ", and the next year he published his first novel "Shangzhou", which shocked the literary world.
Bai Ye spoke highly of his series of novels: "You are advancing into the depths of life and art. You already have your own artistic territory - Shangzhou."
Including The "Abandoned Capital" that Jia Pingwa is currently writing, historically, Bai Ye brought his manuscript back to Yanjing after coming to Xijing and handed it over to October Literature and Art Publishing House for publication. At the same time as the single volume was released, it was published simultaneously in October magazine. So this time when Jia Pingwa came to Yanjing, she said on the train that she wanted to talk to Bai Ye.
Jia Pingwa was away, and Fang Minghua was lying on the bed alone watching TV.
I watched "Desire".
As soon as "Desire" was broadcast, it became a hit in the Yanjing area. Due to strong requests from the audience, Yanjing TV Station not only continued to broadcast the first set of prime time slots, but also continued to broadcast the second set at 7 p.m. Multiple playback of previously played episodes was what Fang Minghua was watching.
This drama is indeed very popular in this era, but as Fang Minghua, a person from later generations is watching this drama.
If we put it thirty years later, it seems that we have a somewhat incorrect outlook.
Liu Huifang looked down on the working people and had to climb high. She deserved to be dumped.
Liu Huifang is unclear about her good friend’s boyfriend, is she a green tea bitch?
Xiao Zhuxin is just a mistress, pretending to be a good person. Wang Husheng is already married, so she should disappear!
Luo Gang and Liu Huifang? ! These are all divine horses and divine horses! They are not good people!
But people in this era just like to watch this tune!
It can only show that the emotional mysophobia of later generations is getting stronger and stronger. If they encounter such complicated and chaotic emotional lines, they will probably collapse directly.
Fang Minghua was lying on the bed, watching and thinking, when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. He went over and found several people standing at the door.
Yu Hua, Chen Hong, Li Hongying, Qian Yuliang, Liao Runbo, and He Liwei all graduated from the Luyuan Institute of Technology.
"Teacher Fang, Liao Runbo invites everyone to dance in the ballroom. We want to invite you too," Yu Hua said.
Liao Runbo invites guests to dance?
In Fang Minghua's impression, Fang Yuhua, Chen Hong and others like to dance. Fang Minghua knew this when he was in Luyuan, but Qian Yuliang and He Liwei don't seem to go there often, right?
Especially Liao Runbo. During those few months in the Lu Academy, I had never seen him go to the dance hall. Except for reading and writing alone in the dormitory, most of the time he was walking around the campus with a cigarette in his mouth.
However, Liao Runbo has changed a lot now from two years ago. Not only is his personality much more cheerful, but the clothes he wears also keep up with the fashion.
Today I am wearing a blue ski shirt and jeans, which are very popular in this era.
Is it because of the banknotes in my pocket?
Three books in the "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" series written by Liao Runbo have been published, and the last two books are paid a 6% royalty. Although it is not high, the sales of the books are huge.
Listening to Song Tangtang’s talk about royalty income, Liao Runbo received more than 600,000 yuan in income.
In this era, it is considered a luxury.
Liao Runbo saw Fang Minghua’s hesitation and explained:
“Teacher Fang, there is nothing to do at night. There is a dance hall on this street not far away, so we can all get together. .”
Fang Minghua noticed that not only Liao Runbo had packed up, but also several other young people had changed their clothes. Especially the two girls, who were different from their bare faces when they attended the meeting during the day, now seemed to have put on light makeup, which seemed to be carefully prepared.
"Okay, let's start together." Fang Minghua agreed.
Let’s get together tonight. I wonder when we can meet again?
