Chapter 251 Sweet Trouble
“I’m tired of shouting.” Zhu Qinglun kept pulling his hair and circling the dormitory, “Friends, are you lucky or bad to be in the same dormitory as Li Yan? "
"The good thing is that I have witnessed one miracle after another, but the bad thing is that I know that I am not the protagonist of the world." Li Ruofei summed it up perfectly.
In short, the middle two were crushed.
“Everyone is the protagonist in their own lives.” Li Yan stood up.
"Come on, come on," Lin Heng spread his hands, "Let's think about it this way. In the future, writing a book "The Years Li Yan and I were Roommates" can support us for a lifetime. How great."
"Look at the manual? "Chen Fan suggested.
Everyone put their heads together.
Li Yan pulled out a booklet and an award certificate. They were all in black, and the certificate had gold-plated three-dimensional characters. The sense of high quality stunned all the roommates.
"How many people will win the first prize and how much bonus will it be?" Liang Tiancheng asked a key question.
"One feature group, fifty thousand."
"How much?! Fifty thousand?"
The shock was wave after wave.
But Li Yan seemed unfazed by this number.
"No, brother, why don't you have some fun? Is fifty thousand yuan so worthless in your eyes?" Lin Heng also began to imitate Zhu Qinglun in picking his hair.
You can tell at a glance whether he is pretending to be calm or not. The main reason is that Li Yan just received 100,000 yuan in cash this morning. The 50,000 yuan before paying taxes is really not enough. He can't even pretend to be excited.
"It's okay." So he chose the real style to show off.
As soon as the manual was spread out, the whole dormitory said "Wow" again.
"Damn it, go to Beijing! The capital!" Lin Heng shouted out first, "Fuck, stay in a five-star hotel and have a welcome dinner!"
"June 26 Reported before 14:00 in the afternoon to check into the Jinghua Hotel in Beijing, a welcome dinner will be held in the Huacai Hall from 17:00 in the afternoon, a writer exchange meeting and a joint exhibition of the publishing house's 10 years of achievements will be held in the morning of the 27th...an award ceremony will be held in the afternoon, and publishing negotiations will be held in the evening ..." Li Ruofei read to Yitong.
"Stop reading it, stop reading it," Zhu Qinglun covered his head and acted dizzy, "I'm so sore that my teeth are about to fall out."
"Fuck!" Chen Fan shouted, shocked. Even Liang Tiancheng stood on tiptoe.
"There will be a special Dragon Boat Festival event on the 28th? We will go to the ancient city scenic spot in the morning, and there will be a farewell banquet at noon..."
Zhu Qinglun made a gesture of looking for teeth on the ground.
“It’s weird, does the Dragon Boat Festival in the fifth month count as the Dragon Boat Festival?” Li Yan said.
Then came the shocked eyes of the roommates, "Is this the fucking point?"
"Every meal is a buffet. Damn it, there is a hotel introduction. Look, every meal is a buffet." Eat at the same restaurant..."
These people have already snatched the manual and are studying it carefully.
Li Yan became a loner instead.
"Wori, all air tickets are reimbursed, what kind of competition is this lavish!" Lin Heng finally got to the point, "Shanghai Writers Association, together with the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, Supernova Press, Shangjing Literature and Art Press, Huaxia University Press, Huaxin Publishers... so many organizers? ”
Li Yan was also surprised, "Hey, I only participated in the International Mystery Literature Award of Supernova Publishing House. How come there are so many publishing houses?"
"Ayan, don't you know?" Li Ruofei explained Said, "These four are the leaders in my country's publishing industry in a certain field, including the prose of Shangjing Literature and Art, the poetry of Huada Press, the documentary and science popularization of Huaxin Press, and the novel of Supernova. This competition has been held since the beginning of last year. Yes, it’s just that other publishing houses select the best from the published works and reprint them. Only Supernova has specially opened a new submission in the mystery category, so the competition deadlines of other publishing houses are faster. Let’s wait for the results of Supernova to come out. Hold an award ceremony."
"No wonder, maybe they have already finished the deadline when I want to participate."
"Otherwise, Lao Yan could still be on stage two or three times." Lin Heng responded very smoothly.
“Don’t brag,” Li Yan said with a smile, “Then it’s no wonder it can be so large. Compared with the Astronomical Literature Award, it is much more commercial.”
"There is also sponsorship from Huacai Group. Li Yan, you can go to this and give everyone a long experience." Chen Fan encouraged.
“I think it’s better to go to Tianxing,” Li Ruofei had a different opinion. “Tianxing is more official and has higher standards. This award is enough for Li Yan to give herself a name as a ‘writer’.”< br>
“Wow, Lao Yan, give me your autograph!”
The focus of the chat switched to praising Li Yan, and the person involved said that he was very used to it.
The next day, Li Yan found Guo Qiwen with a folder.
For some reason, Guo Qiwen had a wonderful premonition that this student who couldn't be more magical would come to him every time to revise his understanding of the world.
Look at Xiao Guo, a genius can do this!
Anyway, he has nothing to teach this student, so he can’t just come over and ask him questions.
As a teenager, Li Yan is very mature, and with his strong strength and confidence, it is impossible for him to come to Guo Qiwen to be his close brother, right?
"Teacher Guo, I have something to ask you." Oh? Guo Qiwen saw that Li Yan was still a little worried, and he was very interested, "What's wrong? Are you worried?"
“Yes.”
Then Li Yan handed over the bag.
Guo Qiwen opened it curiously, and then his smile froze.
A few "gold medals" and "first prizes" were stuck on his face.
You Li Yan, show me off and bring an actor with you?
Guo Qiwen was not shocked by so many first prizes. Ever since he found out that Meng Sheng Yushi and Tang Fei were both Li Yan's pen names, and they even exchanged letters with Su Siqing, he also knew that Li Yan had hidden a lot of things. Didn't say.
Damn... there is so much hidden here, several articles that I have never heard of.
Oh? Third prize? Is it because of this?
“Li Yan, awards for literary works may not truly reflect the level of the work.”
"I know this, and the third prize competition itself is the lowest level. The failure to give high scores is purely because the judges are not good enough. I don't care."
"Ah..." Guo Qiwen took a sip of tea, "Then say "What's wrong?"
Li Yan pointed to the two invitations, "The two times conflict, Teacher Guo, which one should I go to?"
Guo Qiwen After looking at it carefully, he took two big sips of tea and said, "Is this what worries you...?"
"Yes, it's a sweet worry. It would be nice if we could participate separately."
< br>
Guo Qiwen put down the invitation, poured himself a full cup of tea, blew on it, and finished it in one gulp.
It seemed that something serious had been suppressed, and then he slowly spoke:
"The standards of both award ceremonies are very high. The Linjiang one is more convenient, and its overall status in the literary world is higher. A little higher; it should be more fun to go to Beijing, but the journey is tiring..."
"Teacher, do you know who the guests on both sides are?"
"I only know. "The Star Literature Award," Guo Qiwen said, paused, "After all, it is the National Literature Award hosted by Linjiang. The deputy director of the Linjiang Propaganda Department, the Chairman of the Writers Association, and the Vice Chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles will all attend."
"Eh?" Li Yan grasped the key point, "Where is Teacher Su Siqing?"
"He will not attend, saying there is a conflict with the arrangements."
"Conflict?" Li Yan repeated, "Isn't this the publishers' joint summit?"
Guo Qiwen was also surprised, "This... I don't know, maybe you can ask him."
"I and He only exchanged letters, and he didn’t even know who I was... Hey, the chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles wasn’t present either?”
"He is definitely going to the publishers' joint summit." After speaking, Guo Qiwen suddenly slapped his thigh. "It is rumored that Chairman Zou went to Beijing because an author from Linjiang won a certain first prize. It turned out to be you?!"
"Oh, I'm so proud." Li Yan scratched his head, "If it works, I'll go to Beijing. After all, I also value mystery novels. If it can be published, it will be a milestone."< br>
Guo Qiwen was still in the state of shock, so Li Yan added a few words: "Besides, it's not interesting that the Star Literature Award is still making noise in New Taipei. Those who go to Beijing can do it as tourists, the hotels are more upscale, and the food is better. It’s fun to have fun.”
Then he approached Guo Qiwen and asked, “Teacher Guo, is it possible that Chairman Zou also wants to go to Beijing to have more fun?”
“No. This is not possible." Guo Qiwen sighed and smiled.
"Does Principal Tan know these things?" Li Yan suddenly asked confusedly.
"Normally I need to explain it to him. If you want me to keep it a secret..."
"Oh no, he knows, that's better. Thank you, Teacher Guo."
After Li Yan left the office, Guo Qiwen sat blankly for a long time before taking another sip of tea.
The Chinese teacher from another class who had just returned to the office saw him and joked, "Lao Guo, are you borrowing tea to drown your sorrows?"
Alas, I am sad, but I shouldn’t be worried.
Guo Qiwen opened the drawer and looked at the certificate of his Star Literature Award Excellence Award, feeling all kinds of emotions in his heart.
He didn't even have an invitation letter, but a student who just won the first prize refused the award ceremony...
Forget it, people are so popular that they are better than others. It is the supreme honor of a teacher.
Although this kid’s awesomeness doesn’t seem to have much to do with his teaching...
But Li Yan, Li Yan, since she has entered the competition under her real name, she will bring her to the school and be a kind of instructor!
No, Guo Qiwen, when did you become so worldly and utilitarian!
You yourself have underestimated this child’s fighting ability, thinking that he has no published articles to submit.
Well, I am also a "writer" after all. Instead of thinking about writing some articles myself, I still think about dividing the results among my students...
Guo Qiwen was still depressed after all.
