Chapter 218: We finally meet in vests
“Bring a sweater and long johns, and remember to change your underwear and socks.”
In the afternoon, Lin Xiuhong rushed home from the breakfast shop. Here, help Li Luo pack his luggage.
Originally, Li Luo carried a schoolbag with a laptop in the middle and stuffed a few sets of changes of underwear and socks, and that was it.
But Lin Xiuhong had a lot to do. She was only going out for two or three days, so she had to dig out a big suitcase from the storage room and put everything in it.
"And these are the specialties of our Yinjiang District. When you get there, you can meet the author, editor, friends, etc., and treat it as a meeting gift."
Lin Xiuhong naturally thought more than Li Luo has so much more, he even thought about the greeting gifts.
Li Luo looked on dumbfounded, but did not refuse, and accepted his mother's arrangement with peace of mind.
In my previous life, I almost couldn’t hear such instructions and instructions.
It is also a happy thing to be able to watch my mother nagging me while packing my luggage.
"It's almost there. If you add more, it won't be able to fit in." Li Luo reminded from the side, "The authors I met this time are all locals from Yuhang City, and maybe there are quite a few from Yinjiang District. What's your meeting gift? That's all..."
"It's mainly just a thought. Why do you talk so much? Just take it with you."
"Okay, okay, I got it."
After finally packing up, Li Luo put on her schoolbag, dragged her suitcase, and was taken to the gate of the community by Lin Xiuhong until she got into a taxi.
"Master, go to the subway entrance."
After Li Luo said his destination, he said goodbye to Lin Xiuhong outside the car window.
Lin Xiuhong said a lot more words of advice, obviously feeling nervous and worried about her son going out to stay alone for the first time and having to participate in such activities.
But Li Luo waved his hand: "Okay, the driver is waiting impatiently. Bye, I will be back in a few days."
After the car drove away, Li Luo took a photo I took a picture of the driver's seat and said to him: "Go to Hubin Yintai, Jiefang Hotel on Jiefang Road, thank you."
"Aren't you going to the subway station?"
"Ahem... Let's go directly to the destination."
In front of my mother, I still have to save a little, but it takes more than an hour to get there by subway, and I have to change trains twice in the middle.
If you take a car, the ride is comfortable and you can reach your destination in about thirty or forty minutes.
After all, he was making so much money now, but Li Luo knew that if he directly told his mother to take a taxi to a place so far away and spend dozens of dollars, he would definitely be punished.
Li Luo also came up with this strategy.
After taking out his mobile phone and sending a message to the editor, Li Luo closed his eyes and rested in the car.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the taxi came to the West Lake in the urban area of Yuhang City. Li Luo paid and got out of the car and came to the entrance of the Ji Hotel.
At this time Qianzhou was already waiting at the door of the hotel and waved to him.
Li Luo's eyes paused on Qianzhou, and then looked at a middle-aged man next to Qianzhou.
This man is thin and wears glasses, but they are round-rimmed and his hair is sparse. He looks quite elegant.
Li Luo walked up to him, and Qianzhou introduced him enthusiastically: "This is Hongdou, the editor-in-chief of our urban group, boss, this is Rekindle."
"Hello." Hongdou was very happy. Smiling enthusiastically, he took the initiative to reach out and hold Li Luo's hand, "I've heard Qianzhou talk about you for a long time. This time I finally see you in person. It's really like the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. From now on, Internet writing will be the world of you young people. ”
Li Luo said a few words modestly, and then was taken to the hotel by the two editors and arranged for accommodation.
Qianzhou sent him all the way to the hotel room. After placing his luggage, Li Luo took out some specialties from his hometown and handed them two copies to Qianzhou: "One for you, one for you. Help me edit it for Hongdou."
"Okay." Qianzhou accepted it with a smile, "I'll take you to the venue to sign in first."
The venue for this symposium is in a rented conference hall next door.
After Li Luo followed Qianzhou to sign in, he also met many online writers along the way.
Many authors get extremely horny when chatting in online group chats. When they go offline and no one is familiar with them, they suddenly turn into ostrich club fear and don’t even look at each other in person. Feel free to speak.
Just some big guys who were familiar with each other offline gathered together to chat.
Qianzhou took Li Luo to find Hongdou in the venue, and followed him to introduce Zainan to many authors.
Most people couldn't believe it after seeing Xian Ran at such a young age.
“Holy shit, how old were you when Tudou wrote Juggernaut?”
“It feels like I’ve lived like a dog. I was still in an Internet cafe when I was 16 years old. I play games every day.”
“I ride horses and peek at the school beauties every day. How can I think of writing a novel?”
“You must be a reborn kid, right?” >
""I'm Really Not a Star" has been making a lot of money recently, right? It's been on the best-seller list, but you told me that the author is a child?"
"I thought I was jumping on the horse. He’s a middle-aged uncle! Could that smell be written by a high school student?”
Li Luo felt a little ashamed when he heard someone doubting whether he was reborn.
It can only be said that they are all Internet article writers, and their imaginations are much greater than those of ordinary people.
Li Luo followed Qianzhou around and joined many big shots on QQ, and his network of contacts was suddenly broadened.
Especially now that he has the halo of "I'm Really Not a Star", even though he is only 16 years old, few authors dare to look down on him.
In this regard, the Internet literary circle is like this.
Everything depends on performance.
Even if you are young, as long as your grades are good enough, everyone will think highly of you.
Even because you are young, everyone will admire and envy you more.
Many people can’t help but sigh when they see Li Luo’s age. If only they had known something better and could write online articles when they were 16 years old.
"Okay, okay, all of you are old gangsters. When you were 16 years old, there were no online articles! Write a piece of cake."
The Internet literary circle had just formed a scale at this time. Qianjiang Province was the first to take the initiative and set up a writers association for online writers.
So there are also many great authors who are not local to Qianjiang Province and come from other places to attend the conference in order not to miss this feast.
Li Luo looked at the young faces, and felt a little emotional for a moment.
After all, despite his young age, among the many people present at this time, few were actually over 30 years old.
Most of the great authors who are currently popular are under the age of 30 and at the peak of their lives.
As the saying goes, he is full of energy and rebukes Fang Qiu. It also coincides with the fact that the status of the author of the online article has been recognized through official channels for the first time. Naturally, everyone's face is full of red.
In such an atmosphere, when it was almost time for dinner, someone also invited Li Luo to eat together. However, just when Li Luo was about to decline, the editor-in-chief Hongdou coughed and reminded: "Hey, hey, hey, he is still a minor, you'd better not bring up his children, otherwise I won't be able to explain to his parents. ”
The group of people suddenly started laughing and winking, but they didn’t really take Li Luo with them.
Some acquaintances patted Li Luo on the shoulder: "Let's wait until you are an adult. In two years, my brothers will take you to eat and drink."
Then, here, A group of authors gathered and left.
Li Luo looked at their backs and then at Qianzhou: "What are they talking about? Aren't they going to eat?"
"Ahem..." Qianzhou was also a little bit Sorry, "The focus is not on eating, but on the activities after eating. But it's better for you not to understand this. Don't you want to treat me to dinner? Let's go."
Li Luo probably thought of something, laughed and shook his head, then without saying much, he led Qianzhou towards Yuhang Restaurant near Yintai.
It was very similar to what he remembered. The Yuhang Restaurant, located next to the West Lake, still looked as antique as when he saw it in his previous life.
Li Luo ordered Qianzhou some local specialties in Yuhang City according to the way he remembered them, such as West Lake Fish in Vinegar and Dongpo Pork.
After tasting the taste, Qianzhou couldn't help but said: "This Dongpo pork is delicious."
"Where is the West Lake vinegar fish?"
"Uh... The fish is quite tender." Qianzhou smiled, "It just tastes a bit strange."
"That means this restaurant is quite authentic."
After dinner, the two of them said. After wandering around the West Lake for a while, we returned to the hotel.
Li Luo planned to continue coding and said goodbye to Qianzhou at the door of the room.
Qianzhou also waved his hand and walked towards the elevator: "An author just happened to arrive. I will go to receive him first, and you can code."
"OK." Li Luo made a gesture, then entered the room and closed the door, took out the notebook that Yan Zhusheng borrowed from him, and started typing in the room.
At this time, he discovered that he had been pulled into a private author group by a certain boss.
Basically, they are all male video authors who came to the party this time.
Looking at the familiar nickname IDs inside, Li Luo couldn't help but smack his lips.
If you throw a stone into this place, almost all of them will become multi-millionaires in the future.
Some of them have even sold their copyrights.
Thinking of this, Li Luo couldn't help but sigh, who would have thought that after starting over, he would still be able to enter the circle of this group of people.
Even Xu Youyu, who later became the master of Qidian, was actually not very familiar with these early bosses.
In addition, Xu Youyu didn't care about the management of this kind of social network, so she knew very few people in the circle, and Li Luo rarely saw her interacting with other online writers.
And just when he put the QQ group aside temporarily and continued typing until about ten o'clock in the evening, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Li Luo opened the door with a strange look on his face and saw Qianzhou standing at the door. He couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?" "Child, it's not good for me to go out alone in the middle of the night, so I just wanted to call you in."
"Who is it?" Li Luo blinked, not knowing why, but suddenly felt uneasy. A premonition rose from the bottom of my heart.
But the next second, the door of the hotel room next door was pushed open.
A familiar voice suddenly reached Li Luo's ears: "Editor, are you here? I'm at 9106. Did you go the wrong way?"
Xu Youyu walked out of the room in 9106, At a glance, he saw Qianzhou standing at the next door.
"Oh, I'm not thinking about asking someone to go with me. It will be more lively if there are more people." Qianzhou smiled, and then he saw Li Luo suddenly take half a step back and grab the door. The handle is about to close the door.
Qianzhou was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward and stepped into the door: "Li Luo, what are you doing! It's early to go to bed. Didn't I ask her to ask you for a testimonial before? ?”
“I remember you two have a good relationship, right?”
“Why are you hiding from having a barbecue together?”
As soon as these words came out, Li Luo, who was about to close the door, suddenly lost all his strength and quickly leaned into Qianzhou's ear and begged in a low voice: "Don't call me by my name when you step on the horse. Don't you usually call me by my pen name?" "?"
But what he didn't know was that Xu Youyu, who had already walked to the door to see what was going on, froze in place after hearing what he said.
However, everything is irreversible.
Because she had already arrived at the door of Li Luo's room.
At this moment, Qianzhou was leaning against the door, and Li Luo was mostly inside the room.
But his head was not covered, and his eyes just crossed Qianzhou and looked at Xu Youyu.
Next second.
Xu Youyu turned around suddenly and fled back to his room with lightning speed. The door was closed with a loud bang.
Qianzhou stared at this scene in stunned silence. The hand that was holding the door suddenly let go. He looked at Li Luo and then looked at the next door. He couldn't help but doubt:
"Did you offend someone online?"
"Could it be that you secretly dated someone online and then dumped her?"
When Li Luo heard this, his face turned dark. : "You haven't told me yet! Why have you never mentioned to me about going to bed early to attend the symposium!"
"You didn't even ask." Qianzhou scratched his head, "Besides, she is also a minor and a girl. I think it is better to respect other people's privacy and safety. I have never mentioned this to anyone online."
"Then I really thank you. It's..." Li Luo leaned against the door frame and covered his face, with a look of despair on his face.
"So what's going on with you two?" Qianzhou asked curiously.
"What else can it be, isn't it just..." Li Luo was halfway through speaking, but before he finished speaking, the two of them heard the sound of the door next door being opened.
When he turned his head and looked around, he saw that Xu Youyu was covering his face with one hand and dragging his suitcase with the other. He pretended not to know anyone and was about to run away towards the elevator.
Seeing this scene, Li Luo, who was still a bit social at first, was immediately amused by Xu Youyu's operation.
Thinking that everyone in the family knows that he writes books anyway, and Yan Zhusheng also knows that having one more senior sister seems to be nothing.
Li Luo has rich experience in this area and can adjust his mentality quickly.
So he quickly stepped forward, grabbed Xu Youyu's wrist, and said helplessly: "Sister, you have seen everything, so there is no need to deceive yourself and others, right?"
" Ah! Let go!" Xu Youyu reacted fiercely, his face turned red, and he wanted to find a hole to hide in. "I don't know you!"
"Oh! I’m too embarrassed to see anyone!”
