Chapter 196 There is another me in my life
Liu Jiazhen couldn't help but laugh.
Liu Jiazhen said: “When I stayed at home and wrote novels, my parents said the same thing, saying that I never went out and had no friends, so maybe I was suffering from depression.”
Mingyin sighed: "It turns out that we have all encountered such a problem."
Liu Jiazhen: "People who engage in this kind of creative work will encounter this situation more or less." .”
Mingyin turned to look at Lu Yanhe, smiled, and said, "Big star, is it difficult for you to understand us on this matter?"
Lu Yanhe nodded honestly, "I have never had this kind of experience before. "
"However, I can still feel this feeling," Lu Yanhe said, "When I was reading "Star Tracks", there was a person in it who was an illustrator, and she stayed alone most of the day. , obviously working every day She writes and draws, but in the eyes of her family, she has nothing to do at home every day and is very lazy. They don’t understand her working status. They even think that she does not need to live in a big city and can go home. When I read that paragraph , I was wondering if Sister Mingyin was in your mood."
Mingyin nodded in surprise and said, "You have really read my novel seriously."
< br>"I like it very much." Lu Yanhe said.
"I thought you liked crime mystery novels more."
"I like crime mystery novels, and I also like other well-written novels." Lu Yanhe said, "I like all stories. When I was a child I just like to listen to stories. When I grow up, I will look for my own stories and find my favorite stories.”
The three of them stood at the door and chatted for a while. At this time, Xu Xiaoyin came over again.
She also laughed when she saw the three people standing together again.
"It just so happens that the three of you are here, so I don't have to ask one by one. Later, our publishing house wants to shoot a documentary about this book fair. The original plan was to only record, not Interview, the editor-in-chief decided just now that he still wants to include some interview clips. I wonder if it can be arranged? This documentary will only be used as a highlight reel and will be released on some media accounts of our Jiangyin Publishing House without any other promotion. "< br>
Lu Yanhe looked at the two writers, smiled, nodded, and said, "I have no problem."
He is an artist, and at this stage, of course, he needs both large and small exposures.
Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin hesitated instead.
“I feel very nervous in front of the camera.” Mingyin said, “I was very nervous in Lu Yanhe’s live broadcast room last time.”
Liu Jiazhen also nodded, “Me too.”
Xu Xiaoyin obviously knows her two "social fear" authors very well. She smiled and said: "How about we give it a try first. If it doesn't work, we won't let this interview clip appear in the feature film, okay? The main thing is Many of you readers are also looking forward to it."
Mingyin: "Okay."
"Yes." Liu Jiazhen also nodded.
-
At half past nine, the book fair opens on time.
In the lobby on the first floor, there is information about the activities of various publishing houses, writers, and celebrity guests.
Li Pengfei searched among the crowd and quickly found the information about Jiangyin Publishing House.
"On the fifth floor! Lao Lu has a sharing at ten o'clock." Li Pengfei turned around and said to everyone.
As soon as he finished speaking, a girl beside him said in surprise: "Lu Yanhe is also here today!"
The companion next to her immediately asked in surprise: "Really? Where is he? I want to see it!”
"On the fifth floor, in half an hour."
"Then let's go to the fifth floor first!"
"Yeah."
The two girls said They happily squeezed out of the crowd and went upstairs.
"Oh, that star who scored more than 600 points in the college entrance examination is here today." A mother who brought her child also saw Lu Yanhe's name, and her eyes instantly lit up, "Ten Click here for his sharing speech. Let’s go and listen to his speech first. His grades are so good, so listen carefully!”
The child's face instantly wrinkled into a bitter gourd.
"No! I'm going to see Jiangshan!"
"Jiangshan's autograph signing lasts for two hours, I have time! Go to Lu Yanhe's place first!" Mom dragged the person away without explanation. .
Conversations like this are still happening at the same time.
……
Li Pengfei blinked in surprise, turned back to Linyu and the others and said, "It seems like Lao Lu doesn't need us to support him at all."
Chen Qin rolled his eyes and said, "It's been a long time since. I told you, he is very popular now, he is not at all There’s no need for us to support the show.”
Li Pengfei: “Can’t you increase your old classmate’s popularity?”
“I’m not saying no, I’m just saying that you underestimate Lu Yanhe. " Chen Qin spread his hands and said.
Linyu: "Let's go up. It looks like there will be a lot of people at Jiangyin Publishing House's booth later. Let's go up and grab a better spot first, otherwise we might not even be able to see Lu Yanhe. ”
Li Pengfei: "Let Chen Qin pick you up and sit on Chen Qin's shoulders to watch."
Linyu: "..."
Chen Qin: "..."
Chen Siqi felt funny when he heard Li Pengfei's words, but he was embarrassed to laugh on the spot, so he turned his head and looked to the other side.
-
The exhibition hall of Jiangyin Publishing House is very large, occupying nearly half of the fifth floor.
There are both book booths and autograph booths.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the stage in the middle.
This small stage is backed by a high wall, and a large electronic screen is erected. The electronic screen is playing the schedule of today's activities of Jiangyin Publishing House.
The site is already running.
At the place responsible for book sales, many people came one after another to browse.
Some people also gathered on the stage.
There are five rows of seats in front of the stage, all with name tags on them. These are the seats for the publisher itself and specially invited media and partners.
When Lu Yanhe came to the scene led by Xu Mingyue, he immediately aroused a burst of cheers and screams.
He didn't do any styling today, he was dressed a little more formally, with a pair of black trousers and a white shirt, giving him a refreshing and sunny image.
But this scene caused discussion among some media people.
"He didn't wear any makeup today."
"Yes, but he is still handsome. It's good to be young, and he is so handsome without makeup."
"Ten Nine years old is such a nostalgic age.”
“We are almost three years old.”
"However, isn't the cooperation between Lu Yanhe and Jiangyin Publishing House a little too close? I was already surprised when I helped two authors from Jiangyin Publishing House sell books, and today they are here at the book fair."
"Nowadays, people are following this cultural line, everyone gets what they need."< br>
“Why do you think people are so utilitarian? They can’t really love reading?”
“Why do people who love reading come to the live broadcast room to read? Isn’t it just to impress others? Did you see him reading?”
……
These discussions reached Lu Yanhe's ears intermittently.
Sitting in the first row, he heard these voices and controlled his expression not to be affected in any way.
As an artist, he found himself hearing sounds like this more and more.
Everyone will have their own interpretation of everything he does, and they firmly believe in their own interpretation.
The cultural person route?
Lu Yanhe wanted to make it clear to these people seriously that he had never considered taking this route.
How could a nineteen-year-old boy take such a route for himself?
But think about it, there is nothing easy to explain.
The main explanation is useless.
Chen Ziyan had told him a long time ago.
He doesn't know it himself.
It’s not like I really don’t understand the entertainment industry.
"Yan He, are you okay?" Mingyin, who was sitting on his right, suddenly asked.
Lu Yanhe came back to his senses, looked at Mingyin and smiled, "Huh?"
"Did you hear the voices of those people behind you talking about you?" Mingyin asked softly.
A look of worry appeared on her face.
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "It's okay."
"It seems that your job also has many bad situations that we have not experienced." Mingyin said with a soft smile, "Is it because of you? In your working environment, do you often hear such sounds?”
“I can’t say often, occasionally, But this is nothing, I am engaged in a job where I have to face criticism from many people." Lu Yanhe said this, but he was actually comforting himself, "I must persuade myself to accept it."
The Liu family. Zhen heard the two of them whispering, looked over and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Mingyin shook her head, "Nothing."
At this time, the host walked onto the stage and reminded everyone that today's book fair activities will begin soon.
-
“It’s about to begin!” Chen Qin looked back at the host who appeared on the stage and said to Linyu who was still browsing the book market. Linyu heard this and pulled He pulled Chen Siqi and said, "Let's go over."
Li Pengfei had already helped them occupy the position closest to the stage.
Seeing the three of them coming, Li Pengfei complained: "Where did you go shopping just now? It's so slow."
Linyu said: "We just went shopping at the bookstall next to it. Before, Yan He Didn’t you recommend a few books? I plan to buy them? Go home and take a look."
"Do you have time to read? It's hard for you to come out today. Are you not preparing for your game?"
"You always need to rest. How can we keep preparing for the game?" Chen Qin said immediately.
Linyu: "Yes, you always have to rest."
Li Pengfei was a little regretful that Xu Zijun had to be a tutor today and could not come to this book fair.
Otherwise, Xu Zijun should like this place very much. She is also a person who loves reading.
Li Pengfei plans to buy some books for her.
Among the writers who came to book signings today, in addition to writers who have just debuted like Liu Jiazhen and Ming Yin, there are also several national-level writers. Xu Zijun prefers to read traditional literary works. Li Pengfei plans to read these few today. I bought a set of signed copies of books by major writers and took them home.
"Where is Lu Yanhe?" Chen Qin asked.
Li Pengfei pointed to the right side of the first row, "There it is."
"Oh, I saw it." Chen Qin sighed, "After graduating from the college entrance examination, I felt like he was the same as We have become people in two different worlds. We are still waiting for the admission notice and wondering about our future college life, but Lu Yanhe has already entered the adult world."
Linyu was calm and composed. smiling , said: "We all have to enter the adult world. He entered it earlier and we entered it later, but we still stay in the same world. We should not feel that we are separated from him because of the temporary gap. The world."
"Look at your girlfriend, she is so enlightened and generous, and look at you." Li Pengfei looked at Chen Qin with disgust, "Be angry, Chen Qin."
Chen Qin took a deep breath in anger.
Chen Siqi looked at Linyu thoughtfully.
What Linyu said just now was so calm and mature that he was unlike their peers.
Linyu is the liberal arts top scorer in No. 13 Middle School this year, and is also among the top ten in Yuming City. She was a class monitor before, and her grades have always been very good. She is a star-level student in the school and has attracted much attention.
Chen Siqi had heard that Lin Yu was calm and calm beyond her peers, but hearing these words with her own ears today still surprised Chen Siqi.
Compared with her, Chen Siqi felt that her pretense was mature and seemed a lot more "pretentious".
Not real maturity.
At this time, the people standing on the stage began to introduce Lu Yanhe after the president of the publishing house made a relevant introduction.
“Reading is an indispensable part of everyone’s life. This summer, we all got to know a young man named Lu Yanhe. He has many identities. Before June this year, he was A senior high school student. Before his senior year, he was an idol artist who debuted at the age of fifteen. After the college entrance examination, he became an actor. He has just completed the filming of a new play directed by Luo Yuzhong. In multiple identities He is also an avid reader . Many people know that because of his recommendation in his live broadcast, the two books "Nineteen Years of Crime" and "Star Orbit" by Jiangyin Publishing House have entered the best-selling lists of major books. He once said that reading is a kind of rest for him. I am very happy to invite him to share with you about reading today. I would like to invite Lu Yanhe. "
"Oh——" Li Pengfei. Suddenly he arched his hands and put them in front of his mouth and cheered loudly.
Originally, many people applauded at the scene, but his shout was too loud, even shockingly loud, so many people turned their eyes away from Lu Yanhe, who stood up, and turned to look at Li Pengfei.
Lu Yanhe also looked over in surprise.
When he saw it was Li Pengfei and the others, he showed an expression of surprise and waved to them.
Li Pengfei also waved back excitedly.
When many eyes met, Chen Qin was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and get in.
Chen Siqi also feels the same way.
She glanced at Lin Yu and saw that Lin Yu could not hide her embarrassment under her pretended calm appearance. Chen Siqi breathed a sigh of relief.
-
Lu Yanhe walked onto the stage and took the microphone from the host.
"Hi, good morning everyone, I am Lu Yanhe, I am very happy to meet you here today."
Lu Yanhe smiled and greeted everyone. Facing hundreds of people in the audience, he felt a little nervous.
"Those guys just now are my high school classmates. I didn't know they would come today. It's a special surprise. Don't sneak away. I'll come back to you later." Lu Yanhe said to Li Pengfei and the others.
The others looked at them again.
Li Pengfei smiled brightly (silly).
Lu Yanhe withdrew his gaze, "Actually, I was quite frightened when I received this invitation, because I am only nineteen years old. If it weren't for my status as an artist, I'm afraid no one would want to listen to me talk about reading. Such a serious subject.”
Everyone laughed good-naturedly.
Including those in the media.
“However, after thinking about it, it’s quite good. Some people will ask me to sing, and some people will ask me to act. Even now, some people ask me to tell everyone how to study and how to pass the exam. You may not believe it if you do well in the exam, some tutoring institutions even asked me to be their spokesperson," Lu Yanhe said with a smile.
Everyone laughed.
Lu Yanhe waited for two seconds, waited for the laughter to fall, and then continued: "But no one will come to me to talk about reading, which makes me very regretful, because reading is very important in my life. Partly, not because today is the book I say this because reading has a special meaning to me, so I came here boldly, risking being laughed at by many people and saying, "Why are you standing here?" to share what reading means to me. meaning.”
Lu Yanhe could see that the expressions on everyone's faces gradually became serious.
“In my senior year of high school, I worked very hard and desperately because my foundation was very bad, but if I wanted to get into a good university, I had to go all out and sprint. In this state Next, I experienced a lot of things that I didn't expect, which had nothing to do with the exam, but related to myself. I was so sleepy that my eyelids seemed to be stretched. When I was not open, I asked myself what it meant to be admitted to a good university. When I was questioned and ridiculed, I asked myself why I couldn't give up on myself and be a mediocre person. I was facing many things that I cannot explain in detail now. When faced with a dilemma, ask yourself whether you can achieve a good result through persistence and uncompromising. If not, how can you get a good result? What should I do?”
“This is what I asked myself as a senior high school student. Others should have similar questions about themselves.”
“But, what can we do? Where can I find the answer? Not every question can be answered immediately,” Lu Yanhe said, “One day after the college entrance examination. I went to a bookstore with my friends. I actually didn’t know what books had been published recently or what books were worth reading. I just wandered around aimlessly in the bookstore and selected a few books based on my interests. One of them This is "Nineteen Years of Crime Record"
At this time, the live broadcast camera suddenly cut to Liujiazhen.
Liu Jiazhen's face appeared on the big screen behind Lu Yanhe.
Liu Jiazhen also saw his face, and he showed a surprised look.
Lu Yanhe looked back at the big screen and laughed, "Yes, it is the book written by this teacher Liujiazhen. Maybe when I talk about it here, it will give everyone an illusion. I want to say that reading This book helped me find the answers to my questions, Actually no, it’s not like that.”
“My heart was filled with too many questions, but at this time, I started to read "Nineteen Years of Crime", and I read it in one breath, and then, I entered another state completely, simply "To put it bluntly, I temporarily forgot myself." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "I seemed to have another perspective. While reading the book "Nineteen Years of Crime", I looked back at my past during the reading period. This year, the boredom and worry that occurred throughout the senior year of high school Emotions such as depression and incomprehension seemed to have been taken away from me.”
“Reading is the key to entering a world that has nothing to do with ourselves. We can generously put aside all worries and enter a world. A new world.”
"I'm not trying to say that reading can reduce our worries. In fact, after we enter a new world, maybe it's like landing on the moon. Everyone who lands on the moon from the earth can't help but look back. Look at the appearance of the earth. In each book, I thought I had entered a new world, but I repeatedly saw the shadow of my own life and the past. "Zi." Lu Yanhe held the microphone tightly, "When I say this, do you think I'm contradicting myself? I say it can make me temporarily forget myself, and then I say it can make me see myself. Please believe me. It’s the only description I can think of right now that can express my true feelings.”
Both Xu Xiaoyin and Liu Cheng stood at the side of the stage.
They were all focusing on the subsequent work process, but unknowingly, they stopped what they were doing and began to listen to Lu Yanhe’s sharing.
When Xu Xiaoyin heard this, she couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that he could share such true feelings."
"Didn't that girl Xu Mingyue write it for him? A manuscript? ”
"It's completely useless." Xu Xiaoyin said, "I have read the manuscript and Lu Yanhe is completely useless."
"The things he said are too personal, and many people at the scene may not be able to understand."
Xu Xiaoyin said: "But those who have read the book will definitely understand what he is talking about."
Lu Yanhe stood on the stage above, and continued: "From forgetting myself to seeing myself, reading is like a filter. It filters out the sorrow and suffering that real life brings to me, and leaves behind all the warmth and strength. Because it is filtered, I am more beautiful." It’s clear.”
“I still remember the person who silently supports me behind the scenes in “Star Orbit” created by Teacher Mingyin. The story of a young son with autism. After his mother died, the young son learned that these friends around him were all asked by his mother to try to be friends with him. At this moment of knowing, he felt sad and sad. Pain, warmth, happiness, reluctance, so many emotions all appeared in an instant. I was touched by the story and also by these emotions. "I was touched." Lu Yanhe said, "I am not autistic, and I have never encountered a situation where it is difficult to make friends, let alone the experience of being supported and cared for by my mother. Logically speaking, I have no similar experience of empathy. It was so touching, but I must frankly admit that I burst into tears at that moment, and I couldn’t help but wonder why.”
"I was thinking that it was because I saw myself and another self that might exist. In a certain world, I have autism. I have been silently supported by such a mother for many years. I have such a I put myself into a group of happy friends, so there was another me in my life. So, after coming out of the book, I looked at myself in reality and gained a perspective to re-examine myself."
“When reading adventure stories, I am brave and overcoming obstacles. I am capable of cutting thorns and possessing both wisdom and courage."
"When I read fantasy stories, I am the one with the magic wand in my left hand and the magic stone in my right hand."
"When I read the mystery stories, I am the one with the magic wand in my left hand and the magic stone in my right hand. I have a quick mind and amazing insight.”
“Every time I read, I can see a new me. Reading does not require similar experiences to empathize. Reading gives us an extra experience. So you can get more feelings and experiences.”
"So, when you have nothing to do, go to the bookstore, buy one or two books, find a time only for yourself, and meet the self in the book." Lu Yanhe said, "When you think you are reading other people's books, story that you certainly don’t realize is in your subconscious mind Here, that other person is yourself. In another period of your life, the questions and answers about your life will often seem less important. ”
“Thank you.”
< br>After Lu Yanhe finished sharing, he bowed to everyone.
The scene was silent for two seconds, and applause began.
Lu Yanhe returned the microphone to the host and stepped down.
Many people were filming him with their cell phones and cameras.
When Lu Yanhe passed Li Pengfei, he stopped and looked at them with a smile.
“Why didn’t you tell me in advance when you were coming?” Lu Yanhe said.
“You don’t have to worry about us. We’ll tell you what you’re doing in advance.” Li Pengfei said, “Lao Lu, what you shared just now confused me. I didn’t understand many parts, but I I can feel what you are saying."
Lu Yanhe smiled and looked at Chen Siqi, who was standing at the back.
Chen Siqi also glanced at him.
“Let’s have dinner together at noon.” Lu Yanhe said.
"I can't. I have to pick up Xu Zijun. You can eat." Li Pengfei said immediately.
Chen Qin also said: "Linyu and I have something to do later. She has made an appointment with a teacher to prepare for the competition next month."
Lu Yanhe: "You all So busy, well, we haven’t had a meal together for a while.”
"Let's make an appointment later." After Li Pengfei said, he suddenly remembered something, "Isn't Chen Siqi still here? You can eat with her."
Chen Siqi subconsciously wanted to say that he had something to do, but Lu Yanhe immediately nodded. He said, "Then it's settled, then wait for me a little longer, and it will be over soon."
This ritual activity is not over yet, and Lu Yanhe has no choice but to withdraw now.
Especially when Liujiazhen and Mingyin are waiting for the autograph signing event, he plans to go to them to ask for autographs.
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi nodded, turned around and returned to their seats.
Chen Qin sighed: "Lu Yanhe looks completely different now than he did a year ago."
"Are you envious?" Li Pengfei asked.
"Admiration." Chen Qin shook his head, "Such a radical change must have taken a lot of effort."
"Yes." Li Pengfei rarely quarreled with Chen Qin and nodded in agreement. .
A few young people were talking. Suddenly, a young man came over and said with a smile: "Are you Lu Yanhe's classmates? I am a reporter from "Art Newspaper". Can I interview you? A question about Lu Yanhe? ”
Several people shook their heads at the same time.
Linyu said: "Sorry, we don't answer any questions about Lu Yanhe."
She shook her head slightly.
“It’s just a few very simple little questions. We can find a place to sit and chat, and we can also pay for it.”
“Thank you, no.” Lin Yu still said Firmly refuse, "Please don't disturb us."
