Chapter 274: You can brag for a lifetime
Li Guyuan’s submission was called "The Name of a Flower that I Can’t Recall". When he saw this name, Gu Lu’s eyes widened.
“I haven’t heard the name of the flower?”
Is it possible that glutinous rice balls also traveled through time? Gu Lu breathed a sigh of relief after reading it.
It was just a coincidence that the content of the article was that Li Guyuan was talking about his parents taking him to the flower market.
I don’t know if it exists in other places, but the Shancheng Flower Market is a market consisting of hundreds of small stalls every other week. Flowers and plants are sold, as well as pets such as cats, dogs, rabbits and birds.
The father wanted to send flowers to his wife, but the mother objected to wasting money. The story is told from the perspective of "me", a young glutinous rice dumpling. At that time, he also believed that his mother should prefer holding flowers (umbrellas) because they are more practical.
While writing the article, Tang Yuan could not remember what flowers his father wanted to buy that day. I just remember my mother saying, "I'm not a thirty-year-old girl. I want whatever flowers I want."
The article ends here.
The ending of glutinous rice balls is really clever. Some Internet writers deliberately leave hooks out of context, which actually has the effect of selling hooks, which makes people feel sick!
In contrast, the glutinous rice balls have a lingering aftertaste at the end.
At least Gu Lu will think after reading it, don’t people deserve to have some beautiful things when they grow up?
"The manuscript is of a good standard and can even surpass "Youth Literature" and "Youth Digest". It would be a waste to submit it to the school magazine..." Gu Lu was about to say this to Tang Yuan, but paused.
Tangyuan is also the vice president of the society, so he must show off his first draft.
To understand this, Gu Lu’s reply to Li Guyuan was: There is nothing wrong with the article, it exceeds the standard of the school magazine.
"Then I can rest assured, as long as it doesn't embarrass our school magazine." He said this, but in fact Li Guyuan also had a heart.
He is self-aware. Since he believes that the wind turbine is more powerful than himself, he must win at least the second best article in the school magazine!
After the big business started, Li Guyuan and Gu Lu were very busy.
It is not the time for club activities now. We are racing against time, and we cannot wait until noon tomorrow. Li Guyuan went to the classroom to look for her.
First go to Class 10, Grade 2, and look for marbles. Before he joined Pinball, he was also a well-known writer of the literary club.
"Publishing the school magazine? Is it true or false?"
"There are thousands of copies of the first issue published. Why do I feel like you are deceiving me?"
"It will also appear in Quanwu. In most high schools in the city? "
"Oh, Gu Lu did it, then you don't have to say it."
The change in Marble's attitude started when he heard that the president was Gu Lu.
Those who are not from No. 8 Middle School would not know Gu Lu's status in the hearts of students from No. 8 Middle School. It’s like if you’re not from Fujian Province, it’s hard to understand Mazu’s status.
"Take out the manuscript that you think is the best. The sooner you give it to me, the better, because after we get the manuscript, I still have to find Rourou."
Li Guyuan was about to leave and turned around. Clean and crisp.
Walking through the crowd, turned around——
"Gu Yuan, what are you doing here as a sophomore? How is the club lately?" A voice from behind stopped him.
It was a male voice that he had not heard for a long time. Li Guyuan turned around and said, "President Wan."
The other person was Wan Bai, the former president of Shuren Literature Club, whom he had not seen for almost a semester.
"The club is doing very well recently. "Les Misérables" will be performed in the small auditorium in a few days, and many leaders are coming to see it." Li Guyuan responded.
"Oh, then you are here to see Pinball and the others? Have you approved the membership activity room? I applied to Teacher Wu a long time ago..."
Wan Bai seemed to be giving instructions. The old squad leader of the new recruits has a thousand words to say. But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his classmates, "Bye bye (Wan Bai's nickname), hurry up, you will be criticized by the teacher if you are too late."
There is only time to drain the water after class, and you must return to the classroom immediately after draining the water.
Hearing the sound, Wan Bai's expression changed, "Gu Yuan, I'll leave first. We'll talk next time."
Leaved in a hurry.
Remember the importance Wan Bai attached to the club at the beginning, when the recruitment was over, handbooks were distributed to new members class by class.
Now he is locked in a cage - no, Li Guyuan thought, "He is put on a flying platform. Next, the eagle will spread its wings."
All the Gemini stars in the Eighth Middle School are taking action.
"Zebra, I have something to ask you." On the other side, Gu Lu found Lu Yi.
Lu Yi listened, and Gu Lu got straight to the point, "I founded a new member publication club, and under it is the school magazine "Youth", which is currently soliciting submissions. The fastest way to solicit submissions is through the campus wall."
"!" Lu Yi's pupils dilated slightly. It turned out that the ghost club in the school was created by Gu Lu. It's reasonable. It's very reasonable for him to have special treatment in school.
"How many campus walls can you contact?" Gu Lu asked.
"About thirteen." Lu Yi said, "Because we need our authorization, seven or eight of them must be at the top. The rest will only be known after we discuss them."
Lu Yi has been a member of the Eight Middle Wall since The manager feels "upgraded" and has seen too many submissions, which makes her cautious in her words and deeds.
It is as if a "middleman" is installed in the brain. You first tell the middleman your point of view, and then the impartial middleman will review it and make sure there is no problem before speaking out.
"We can provide a certain amount of sponsorship." Gu Lu said, "I can give about two to three hundred."
"Huh?" Lu Yi asked, "That's more than a thousand, the publication club Are there so many funds? ”
"Is it a lot? The publication club also has more than 20,000 yuan per semester." Gu Lu said, "After all, money has to be spent wisely."
"..." Lu Yi said in silence for a long time, "I joined before The dance club’s funding per semester is only 8,000 yuan.”
The difference between biological and adopted.
In fact, even though the Journal Club has not yet emerged, after several increases, the funds for member activities are already the second highest among the more than 20 clubs in the school.
“Maybe it is a publication after all and needs to print the school magazine, so the funds are a little higher.” Gu Lu said.
"If there is a sponsorship fee, I can contact many campus walls. I will try it first, no less than twenty." Lu Yi said, "Do you feel sorry for the sponsorship fee?"
"There is no shortage of money, the main thing is efficiency." Gu Lu responded.
There are 13 campus walls authorized by Fogdu, and the rest are authorized. After all, this thing is very easy to imitate, and asking for authorization is just a ritual, which is quite frivolous.
Lu Yi is very reliable and started taking action that night.
No. 1 Middle School, No. 8 Middle School, No. 3 Middle School, Yucai, Bashu, etc., 23 high school campus walls posted a news at the same time.
[Call for Papers:
The No. 8 Middle School magazine "Youth" has begun soliciting papers.
1. Purpose of Call for Papers

4. Introduction to the publication "Youth".
"Youth" magazine was founded by Gu Lu, a famous writer in No. 8 Middle School, and Li Guyuan, the vice president. Although it is a start-up, it has invited professional editors from many magazines such as "Story Club", "Science Fiction World" and "New Reading" to share their experiences.
……]
The following details of the call for submissions will not be posted. The current time is 2013, which is already a very active year for Penguin Space, so the attention of each campus wall is very objective, and it has even greatly reduced the popularity of the school post bar.
It was released at the same time, which not only shocked high school students, but also went viral online.
There is a discussion in the Emperor Bar.
"It is no small matter that Gu Lu takes action. A small high school magazine can cause such a big fight. Also, is Gu Lu the martial arts leader of Wudu High School? Why can he call for so many campus walls?"< br>
“He is the strongest high school student in history, don’t you know? Hahahahaha. Students like to do all kinds of things. I don’t even read serious magazines, but I still read the school magazine?”
"What do you mean by the strongest high school student in history? It feels very unwise and there is no market for it. As soon as I thought about it, I knew that the high school magazine would definitely be lower than ordinary publications. Who would buy it?"
As the most popular Li Yiba at the moment, it can largely represent the reaction of the public netizens.
It is generally believed that Gu Lu was full.
There are also forums with different opinions, such as Gu Lu Forum.
“Open the door, open the door, you have time to write the school magazine, but no time to write a book? Think about it, how long has it been since you published an article in a magazine?”
“Why don’t you write science fiction when you have time? Short stories?" "Why don't you write "Liao Zhai Xinyi" when you have time? "Why don't you write Akechi Kogoro's mystery series when you have time?" Wait, the nature of human beings is repeaters.
It's really scary, all of them are reminders.
Fortunately, Gu Lu didn't see it.
Those who think this is nonsense are mostly adults, but for high school students – it’s a sensation!
The long call for papers on the campus wall means just one sentence to them, "Youth is the school magazine founded by Gu Lu."
Submissions are like snowflakes, pouring into the submission mailbox.
Fortunately, Gu Lu applied for a new email address, separate from his work email address.
"Brother Zhulu, actually I have been hiding something from you."
"Well, you tell me."
Gu Lu looked at Lu Ping.
"I am a natural writing prodigy. This article is the result of ten years of talent gathering. Gu Lu, you must read it carefully and review it carefully." Lu Ping handed over a manuscript.
He thought of Brother Pingtou's love letter and couldn't help but shudder, "Brother Pingtou, the person who reviews the offline manuscripts is Gu Yuan. I mainly review the online manuscripts. You submitted it to the wrong place."
In fact, he and Li Guyuan conducted cross-reviews and grading, reviewing a manuscript twice. However, Gu Lu gave the difficult task of rejecting Brother Pingtou to his right-hand man.
“Oh.”
Lu Ping withdrew the manuscript, then ran to Li Guyuan and said the line he just said again word for word.
Fourteen people from Class 10 alone submitted articles, and the pen-twisting king Tian Xiao also tested the waters, just in case.
The advantage of a comprehensive call for papers is that it is fast, but the disadvantage is that it is uneven and numerous.
In the classroom, Gu Lu always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it.
"Hello, classmates."
"Hello, teacher."
Before the class, Teacher Gao asked with a smile, "Classmate Gu Lu, the teacher wrote A poem. You can submit it.”
One night, even the teacher knew. Think about how big the fuss was over the school magazine "Youth"'s call for submissions.
"Ahem." Gu Lu coughed twice. Teachers cannot contribute. The call for papers for the school magazine is only for students, otherwise the teacher's writing skills must be better than the students'.
"Okay, no kidding." Teacher Gao said, "Let's open the textbook."
The class started.
Teacher Gao saw the call for submissions for the school magazine on Tieba, while Principal Chang was informed by someone else.
The caller was a city leader.
"Not bad, Old Chang. You have a thorough understanding of the above education policy."
"Very good. "Youth" comes at the right time. Print more. When the time comes, let Fogdu The TV station is here to interview you.”
The city leader and Principal Chang are also acquaintances, so they also called with congratulations.
After hanging up the phone, Principal Chang could no longer hold back his lips.
Is there a more reliable student in the world than Gu Lu? No! We just communicated with each other yesterday and made some noise today.
On the other hand, reviewing manuscripts is really a waste of time, especially when time is tight and the tasks are heavy.
Tangyuan gave up his time to go to the literary club to help his beautiful classmates, and Gu Lu reduced his reading time, but he was still too busy.
"I seem to have underestimated the appeal of the school magazine." Gu Lu rubbed his eyes.
Staring at the screen, his eyes were swollen. Gu Lu used eye drops to relieve them.
In fact, it was Gu Lu who was too sincere. He would die if he didn't pass the test at the beginning. But he feels that although the level of each article is different, it must be with the same intention. So even if the beginning doesn't work, he will finish it.
“I haven’t checked my mailbox for an hour, and there are seventeen more messages. That’s an exaggeration.” Life is not easy, Gu Lu sighed.
Look at the messages from some students from No. 8 Middle School.
Silence of the Lambs: [I voted. If I can pass, and be in the same magazine as Gu Lu, I can brag about it for the rest of my life. ]
Mulu: [I can already imagine that scene. Grandson, you know! Your grandfather was also a young hero when he was young. You know, Gu Lu, a great writer, he and I published articles on the same stage back then...]
Wanli Changfeng Chengkunpeng: [Speaking of which, our own people from No. 8 Middle School will receive preferential treatment? I submitted three articles, focusing on one that wins by quantity. ]
Finally left: [Other schools may also have school magazines, but they are really not so famous. In my QQ space, I saw a lot of people who made wishes and submitted manuscripts. By the way, who is this Li Guyuan? Why did you get together with Gu Lupai in advance? ]
Wait a minute, although Gu Lu is someone else’s child, he is also the idol of many students.
“Wait a minute, I seem to know something is wrong!” Gu Lu suddenly realized. His deskmate CC especially likes writing.
I once used my experience of repeated defeats to encourage Gu Lu to submit articles. Logically speaking, when the school magazine started soliciting submissions, she should be the first to respond.
Ready to send it to the mailbox? It's impossible. CC lives on campus. Even if he smuggled his mobile phone into the dormitory, he doesn't have the conditions to send an email. Gu Lu thought.
There is only one possibility left. Something affects her mood, and the plot of the writing is gone.
“Is this really——” Gu Lu rubbed his head, wondering why the more familiar he was with the person, the lower his mood perception was.
So during self-study the next morning, Gu Lu asked his best friend at the same table.
"Panda, what do you think CC is most afraid of?" Gu Lu asked.
"CC, she's afraid of many things. Afraid of the dark and afraid of seeing sad things because she has a strong sense of empathy. Afraid of poor dance performance and afraid of disappointing her parents." Wei Jiao said a lot in one breath, and she was worthy of being a close friend.
“The biggest fear is to be alone.” Wei Jiao said, “Whether she is being punished or receiving a reward, she probably wants to share it. Because this will make her feel safe.”
It’s reasonable, considering CC’s character, she is unassertive and cowardly. Except when she dies, she probably wants someone to be with her.
Gu Lu was thinking, but he was not idle either. After coming to school, he also went to the social office to review the manuscript at noon.
Hard work pays off, under the unprofessional review by Gu Lu and Li Guyuan.
Screen many excellent articles.
Among them, there are 6 articles among the eight, and Shuren Literature Society has won four articles.
There are twenty-one articles left, two from No. 3 Middle School and Bashu.
Most of the submissions are beautiful articles, and there are many types of prose, so the number of words is not many, and more articles are needed to fill the school magazine.
