Chapter 291 I’m finally home. Have you missed your old man? (Please pre-order
The sales volume of 100,000 copies has tempted the regional leaders!
But after all, their region Literature is serious traditional literature. Should we make drastic changes and switch directly to popular literature?
Regional leaders are a little undecided.
Finally, it’s time to reach the regions! >At the dinner table arranged by the regional leaders, Editor Chen, the person in charge of regional literature, asked Cheng Xuemin to write a manuscript.
I hope Cheng Xuemin can help create a sample and help their regional literature take the lead in popular literature. < br>
Cheng Xuemin was also prepared in his heart, otherwise he would not take advantage of others and eat their dinner, so he agreed at the dinner table.
After he arrived in Yanjing, he would try to make it happen before the end of this month. Send the sample to Editor Chen and let’s try it out together!
Cheng Xuemin also wants to weigh his influence on a different track and platform.
This time I chose Yulin Literature in their area, a small local magazine that is not well known at all, but has the qualification to publish nationwide.
Let’s see what kind of influence Cheng Xuemin can achieve after removing the pioneer and eliminating the first-level publishing platform.
So when sending Cheng Xuemin and others to the train station, Cheng Xuemin made an explanation: He would submit the manuscript by then and hoped to use another pen name.
Use another pen name?
After hearing Cheng Xuemin’s request, the regional leaders were obviously a little unsatisfied.
After all, the hope is to use Cheng Xuemin’s reputation as a reform pioneer to increase the literary influence in their region.
Without the name Cheng Xuemin, he would be a newbie with a blank slate. He has not borrowed any power. Wouldn’t it be a waste of time?
Of course!
Regional leaders also understood Cheng Xuemin’s concerns about using another pseudonym.
After all, their region is a little worried that converting serious literature into popular literature will not hold up in the cultural arena.
What's more, Cheng Xuemin is a pioneer in reform and opening up specially appointed by the superiors. Now he is a pen of the Wenhua Group, and he is asked to sign his name to write popular literature?
Isn’t this self-destruction of the Great Wall and self-destruction of reputation?
Of course I can understand if people have this concern.
After being a little disappointed, the regional leaders nodded and promised to protect their reputation as a pioneer in reforming northern Shaanxi.
A new pen name is a new pen name.
Anyway, it’s just a matter of trying to cross the river by feeling the stones.
The test is successful and everyone is happy.
If it really doesn’t work out in the end, it doesn’t matter to everyone, just pretend it didn’t happen.
Moreover, the magazine reform was carried out by Cheng Xuemin, a pioneer, who helped lead the reform. It can be regarded as the first experimental field for local reform by Cheng Xuemin, a reform pioneer.
The district leaders didn’t believe it either. This time it didn’t work, so Cheng Xuemin gave up.
With this first try, they have caught up with Cheng Xuemin, a pioneer, and it should not be a big problem to book a manuscript in the future.
Cheng Xuemin also knew that the regional leaders would be wrong.
I think Cheng Xuemin is worried about damaging his reputation, so he doesn’t write popular literature with his old vest.
After all, in this era, popular literature is always second-rate and cannot be put on the stage.
I don’t even recognize the cultural aspect at all. The award selection is basically incompatible with popular literature and has no place in it.
So everyone thinks that Cheng Xuemin, a penman who changed his position to write popular literature as a pioneer, is committing suicide.
So using a new pen name is normal and understandable.
I really wronged Cheng Xuemin, he really didn’t mean that.
Popular literature and serious literature are actually both genres of literature, and there is no distinction between them.
Cheng Xuemin thought so, but others didn't think so, and he didn't bother to explain more. In the end, his strength spoke for itself.
I also want to see what kind of influence he can achieve by taking a different approach this time.
On the train, I found that the regional leaders had arranged hard sleepers.
But according to regulations, Cheng Xuemin's level is still treated as a hard seat when traveling, let alone his mother and his sister and cousin.
It can be seen that as the reform boosts domestic demand, some authoritarian treatment of very class-level people is also being liberalized.
With the full implementation of the reform, purchasing train tickets by class will become a thing of the past.
It won’t take more than a few years!
As long as you have money, you can buy a soft sleeper with level 8 or above treatment in minutes, without any hassle.
So, this is also for Cheng Xuemin to experience in advance the high level of treatment at this level.
Otherwise, after two years, he would be able to sit on a hard sleeper due to his own level of treatment. Unfortunately, he would be fully liberalized and anyone could sit on the couch!
As long as you have money, no one will say anything even if you buy a hard sleeper or a soft sleeper for cats and dogs.
The superiority of the level of treatment was completely lost. The sudden subversion at the time also made many old comrades unable to adapt.
Of course this happened in the next two years and does not match the current Cheng Xuemin.
The conditions for hard sleepers are definitely better than those in ordinary carriages, so in the next three days, Cheng Xuemin also had a creative environment.
I didn’t catch up on the foreign language manuscript that was still unfinished. Instead, I took advantage of the enthusiasm and turned over the story book in my hand on a whim, preparing to write some popular local literature for regional literature.
Talking about the street stall literature of the 1980s and 1990s, which one is the most eye-catching?
It must be yellow!
You know, the street stall literature of the 1990s had another, more vulgar title: color literature!
The summary is really in place.
Cheng Xuemin thought about it for a moment. The street stall literature of the 1990s was not just about big breasts, even the covers were the most eye-catching kind of red fruit.
Of course!
Cheng Xuemin can give foreign language manuscripts outside some color, or all of them.
However, whether the manuscripts published in China are serious or popular, Cheng Xuemin is very serious and does not write much about sex.
Although after the scar literature wind has passed, the serious literature written by everyone is almost full of food and sex.
Like the later "White Deer Plain" and "Red Sorghum", the content inside is really realistic, and the color is also very poignant.
It is definitely not suitable for primary and secondary school students.
Not to mention the more popular "Kangxi Dynasty" and "Yongzheng Dynasty", there is almost nothing but color in them.
Cheng Xuemin can’t write!
He makes his own decision on the manuscript he writes. He will show it to his little squirrel and his daughter in the future, and he doesn’t have to hide it and blush in embarrassment.
So, when writing popular manuscripts about regional literature, Cheng Xuemin must first exclude color.
Even if Cheng Xuemin had written it, Editor Chen might not have dared to publish it. After all, he was trying to take that step, but he couldn’t take it too far, and it would directly involve the egg.
If there is no color literature in street stall literature, then it can only be the other half: martial arts!
The introduction of martial arts TV series in Xiangjiang will have to wait for two years, and Jin Yong’s martial arts style will have to wait until the end of the 1980s.
But this does not hinder the market and lethality of martial arts style in the mainland.
The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people!
Cheng Xuemin wrote these eight words on the blank manuscript. This is the definition of a hero in Mr. Jin’s martial arts world.
And in this area, Jin Gu, Wen Liang and Huang have been badly written in the past ten years.
It just hasn’t spread to our mainland yet.
If Cheng Xuemin writes now, he can get ahead of the Xiangjiang martial arts and spread across the mainland, and also pay tribute to some martial arts novels that can compare with them.
After thinking about it, these guys are really hard to surpass.
Even if Cheng Xuemin uses his killer weapon in online martial arts, he may not be able to do it.
With pearls and jade in front, it was difficult for Cheng Xuemin to choose a tribute manuscript.
The only way is to avoid them and change the track.
Hero Huo Yuanjia!
After changing his thoughts, Cheng Xuemin's mind quickly became clearer, and the Fist of Fury series came to mind spontaneously. The first one must be the hero Fearless.
The Great Wall will never fall, and the Yellow River is surging...
Cheng Xuemin has now even thought of the theme song for his tribute.
It’s him!
Hero Huo Yuanjia, Fist of Fury series.
Cheng Xuemin wants to pay tribute to Xiangjiang's "Fist of Fury" series before it comes out.
If it can be made into a TV series, it will definitely be popular all over the country, including Hong Kong, Macao, Taichung and South Asia.
After all!
The TV series Fist of Fury was filmed in Xiangjiang in my previous life. It has proven its subject matter and is indeed a hot topic in Central and South Asia.
After Fist of Fury was The Legend of the White Snake, and after The Legend of the White Snake was The Princess of Pearl. Although Jin Yong’s martial arts world is very popular, it is not as good as the first three.
So, Cheng Xuemin has made a decision in his heart!
In Yulin Literature in my hometown, I tried popular literature for the first time and serialized the first part of the "Fist of Fury" series, "Heroes Fearless".
First of all, in the magazine and publication industry, there is a martial arts trend of "the great chivalrous man serves the country and the people", so the plaque of "Sick Man of East Asia" should be kicked back to the Japanese islands of Japan.
I just don’t know if Cheng Xuemin’s subversive writing style will confuse Li Shuguang, Zhang Guangnian of the Humanities Club, and Ding Ling’s teacher Wang Meng of the Institute of Literature.
When you have a direction, your ideas are like a spring, and you can directly pay tribute and copy them.
By the time the train entered Yanjing Station, "The Great Hero Fearless" already had a manuscript of more than 30,000 words. I would write another 30,000 to 40,000 words. After the upper part was completed, I could turn around. Send it back to Lao Chen, the editor-in-chief of Yulin Literature.
As the pace of reform accelerates, Yanjing is changing day by day.
Cheng Xuemin and the others came out of Yanjing Station, and their eyes were indeed attracted by the small rickshaws in front of them.
Taxi!
The first batch of taxis in Yanjing were officially launched at the end of 1979 and were flying on the streets of Yanjing, providing convenience for Yanjing people to travel.
In the future, traveling will no longer be by bus, but by bicycle or Route 11.
From now on, you can take a taxi.
Yellow bread taxi, it is also synonymous with "yellow worm" in this era.
“It’s ten yuan to get on the bus, and you can go anywhere in Yanjing City, as long as it’s not more than ten kilometers away!”
No need to squeeze into the bus!
I asked about the price of the yellow worm. It costs ten yuan per person for ten kilometers, and the car is full and we can leave.
When he heard that the four of them were near Yenching University and wanted 40 yuan for the fare, Cheng Xuemin and his mother Qin Guilan were so frightened that they quickly pulled Cheng Xuemin away.
Afraid of being delayed, her son just paid and got on the bus.
The price is indeed a bit outrageous. It’s fine for Cheng Xuemin alone. I might just bite the bullet and sit down.
But there are four of them in their party!
For four people, the total cost of taking the bus from the train station to their home is only one yuan and two, which is three yuan per person.
Can you make this yellow worm and go back and multiply it forty times?
If Cheng Xuemin really dared to take advantage of him, his wife Feng Jiayou would have to kill him later.
Wait a moment!
Don’t be the first to eat crabs. Let’s wait until the price of yellow worms comes down.
“Ten dollars?!”
"The four of us together went to Yanjing University for ten yuan, right?!"
But before they had taken a few steps, another yellow worm passed by, stopped and headed towards Cheng Xuemin and the others shouted to welcome guests.
The driver even shouted, ‘It’s ten yuan to get on the bus, and we’ll leave when it’s full! ’
Cheng Xuemin nodded at the four of them, but the driver still said ten yuan, got in the car and left.
This made Cheng Xuemin energetic, and he stepped forward to ask for confirmation.
"Yes, yes! Are you from other places? Are you students from other places who were admitted to Yenching University this year?"
"Yes, yes! We are from Shaanxi My son, daughter, and niece from the north have all been admitted to Yenching University this year!"
Cheng's mother Qin Guilan nodded and shouted.
"What!? Sister, your family is so awesome. Your son, daughter, and niece all got admitted to Yenching University. Is it true?"
"Then your family is just like a family, isn't it? Ziwenquxing descends to earth!”
"Come on, come on, sister, hurry up and get in the car. For the sake of your family all attending Yenching University, I'll take you to the school to register for free!"
After hearing this, Mother Cheng said , her son, daughter, and niece were all admitted to Yenching University, and she was instantly stunned and confused!
He quickly got out of the car and asked Cheng Xuemin and others to get into his yellow insect noodle car.
"Free ride? Isn't that bad?"
Cheng's mother Qin Guilan was embarrassed by the driver's enthusiasm and did not dare to get on the bus.
"Come on, Mom, we'll just pay the fare!"
Cheng Xuemin doesn't need to take advantage of others, and this yellow cab driver is indeed kind and honest.
Get in the car and chat for a while!
Only then did I know that these yellow worm faces were officially offline and running in Yanjing City at the end of last month!
The price is indeed ten yuan for ten kilometers.
But it refers to the chartered fare of ten yuan for a trip of ten kilometers. It doesn’t matter how many people you take.
It’s not a chartered car like Cheng Xuemin. The driver actually picks up more shared cars. The car will not leave until the car is full.
And this kind of minivan can fit four or five people in a squeeze, so it costs about three yuan per person if divided equally.
The one I met before may not have asked or explained clearly, otherwise ten yuan per person can be worth a month's salary of an employee. Isn't that robbing money?
"Uh, aren't you going to Yenching University to report? This is..."
But when the driver sent Cheng Xuemin and the four to Yenching University, they were asked to turn around. Go to the alley opposite.
The driver suddenly became suspicious!
Didn’t you all get admitted to Yenching University and come to Yenching from northern Shaanxi to report?
But Yenching University is on the left. You turn into the alley on the right. What do you mean?
Bragging? !
Can this be blown too? If you passed the exam, you passed the exam; if you didn't, you didn't pass the exam.
He is a newly hired noodle driver. Can he charge you more fare just because you are not freshmen coming to Yenching University to report?
“Well, this is my son’s home!”
“My son was not only admitted to Yenching University, but also bought a house in Yenching University. He is also a professor at Yenching University. The one who switched to Pioneer..."
"Comrade, this is ten yuan for the car, please keep it!"
Cheng Xuemin ignored her mother's words of showing off to others. , took out a big ticket and handed it over.
“Okay, okay!”
This is their home, not reporting to Yenching University. In this case, the driver subconsciously went to pick up the money handed over by Cheng Xuemin.
But soon, I heard something was wrong!
Who are the people in this family?
How can I say that I was admitted to Yenching University, became a professor at Yenching University, and even bought a house in Yenching?
What kind of pioneer is there in the end?
The driver was busy picking up the money handed over by Cheng Xuemin, so he didn’t hear clearly when he was interrupted.
But even so, the driver in front of you really shouldn’t be too confused.
This eldest sister from northern Shaanxi speaks confusingly. She was admitted to Yenching University, and she claims to be a professor at Yenching University. Isn't she obviously telling lies if she is not inconsistent? !
“It’s true, my son, daughter, and niece have really been admitted to Yenching University. If you don’t believe me, let me show you the admission notice!”
I got out of the car and saw that the driver was rude. After collecting her son's ten yuan fare, Cheng's mother Qin Guilan knew that the driver didn't believe her and thought she was lying, so she anxiously asked her daughter to produce her admission letter to prove it.
"Forget it, Mom, they are already at the door of the house. Aren't you in a hurry to see your grandson?"
Cheng Xuemin asked with a smile, you really don't want to be polite to someone? Are you polite?
“Oh, yes, yes, yes, go see your eldest grandson, eh, go see your eldest grandson!”
……
Please give me a monthly ticket!
