1980 My literary era

"It's okay, it's just malicious slander by some treacherous villains."

"Of course it's true. They couldn't have done it ten years ago, let alone now?"

"Don't worry, I am considered a well-known writer now, and no one will give me any trouble over this matter."

"How are you doing?"

…

"Okay, I'll wait for you in Yanjing!"

Lin Weimin hung up the phone and the smile on his face faded.

The call was from Tao Huimin. "Five Women's Birthday Wishes" has been filming for half a year and will be completed in a few days.

Recently, there has been a lot of discussion and criticism about Lin Weimin and "Lover" in various newspapers and magazines. She has also seen a lot of it in Changchun, and her heart is naturally full of concern and worry. She will call Lin Weimin every few days to ask about the situation.

She was too young and didn't know much about the literary world. She always felt a kind of frightening fear every time she saw the printed content. Lin Weimin could only take the trouble to comfort her.

When Lin Weimin called, Qin Chaoyang went to the big office of the editorial department. Lin Weimin came out of his office and walked in the corridor. He was about to go back to the big office when he heard a roar.

"Review? What kind of review should I write?"

"When you publish a novel, you need to write a self-criticism. With so many novels being published throughout the year, why don't you ask those people to write self-criticism?"

"What's the excessive content in his novel? If you marry a wife and don't have children, how can you have children? They're all about platonic love. Who will do the revolutionary work in the future?"

"Who is messing around? Old Hu, let me tell you, if "Lover" can be published in "Contemporary", it is a work unanimously recognized by our editorial department and even the Chinese Literature Society. There is absolutely no issue of principle.

If you listen to the wind like rain and treat your comrades harshly, you are afraid of trouble. Fortunately, you are still the leader of the ministry. If you don't support us, you still add insult to injury. You are simply a bastard! "

…

Through the door, Lin Weimin could hear Lao Meng roaring on the phone in the office.

Not only him, but also his colleagues in the big office heard it, and they all jumped up and looked gossipy.

Lao Qin originally looked excited, but when he saw Lin Weimin standing outside Lao Meng's door, he shouted to the big guy: "There's nothing to see, everyone goes back to work, work!"

Everyone saw Lin Weimin, and after thinking about what they heard before, they all returned to the office obediently.

"Alas, the scale of description in "Lover" is a bit too big, but it's not like this!" Yao Shuzhi sighed.

"That is to say, among the novels published in the past two years, there are some that are more extreme than him." Liu Yin looked unhappy.

He Qizhi shook his head and said: "It can only be said that it is not a good time to rush for the people. The situation in the second half of the year is so severe. And haven't you read the criticism? This is someone stirring up trouble. There is no mention of politics in Weimin's novels. However, some people described 'Guo Yudao' as a traitorous businessman from old Shanghai. I'm confused, how did these people figure it out?"

Tan Chaoyang sneered: "He is a god. He can see things that others cannot see? Isn't slander and slander the usual method of these people?"

Everyone nodded with concern. Just looking at the content in "Lover", it was revealed that Guo Yudao was only a first-level businessman, and even the commercial content was rarely involved, let alone war and political matters.

These people are able to achieve great success by slandering and slandering, largely because they benefit from catching wind and shadow.

Old Shanghai, revelry, rich businessmen, French girls...

These words are connected together, and with only a simple guide, it is very likely that those who have not read "Lover" will have a negative impression of this novel.

Once this kind of trend arises, people who don't know the truth don't care whether you wrote the content or not. What they want to do most is to beat you to death with a stick.

Rong Shihui sighed, "What is this?"

All colleagues were speechless.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

There was a knock on the office door. Lin Weimin opened the door and saw Meng Weizai standing in front of the window with his hands on his waist.

"Leader, you are so angry!"

Meng Weizai said angrily: "It's not because of you!"

"Yes, yes, it's all my fault!" Lin Weimin lowered his eyebrows.

Because you defended me so much just now, old man, I couldn't bear it.

"Which leader called?" Lin Weimin asked.

Meng Weizai glared, "Why are you asking so much? I told you that you can settle it?"

"If the leader has a daughter, I can give it a try!" Lin Weimin said cheerfully.

Meng Weizai was furious when he saw his playful smile, "I really should drag you out and parade you around in a tall hat to see if you still dare to be so sarcastic!"

Lin Weimin put away the funny look on his face and said seriously: "What can we do? Let's have fun in the hardship. If there are too many lice, don't bite them. If there are too many debts, don't worry."

Meng Weizai sighed: "Those who are making trouble will not stop because of your attitude. Instead, they will slap their noses in their faces!"

"Hey, it's not like ten years ago. They couldn't make any big waves."

"The leaders above are paying attention!" Meng Weizai reminded.

"The leader just asks me to write a self-criticism! In fact, there is no need for you, the leader, to talk to me about self-criticism. I am familiar with this stuff!"

"Fart! Do you think that's the review I asked you to write? Do you believe that after you finish writing this review, people will dare to hold a meeting to rape you?"

Lin Weimin knew that Meng Weizai was telling the truth, and he was even more grateful for his love for him.

After Meng Weizai finished venting his anger, he gave Lin Weimin a few words, telling him to keep a low profile recently and not to express opinions casually, let alone write confrontational articles in newspapers and magazines.

The limelight is a little too big now, but after all, there is no real big shot to speak out. Lin Weimin is under the big tree of the Chinese Literature Society, so there should be no risk.

Lin Weimin nodded, and casually published an article in newspapers and magazines to strangle those who made trouble, and won the popularity of the people. He had imagined a scene, but it was just a fantasy, and it was unrealistic.

Just like you would argue on the Internet in future generations, will it be useful no matter how many scientific evidences, historical allusions, and professional knowledge you list for trolls?

After coming out of Lao Meng's office, Lin Weimin returned to the big office.

Everyone sympathized with Lin Weimin, but they didn't know what to say to comfort him at this time.

Tong Zhonggui's face was even more panicked. He had just turned twenty this year and had not left school yet. Over the past few days, he had seen countless open and hidden arrows shooting at Lin Weimin. While he was worried about Lin Weimin, he was more afraid and worried. fear.

He didn't dare think about what he would do if he encountered such a situation. Thinking of the contents in those newspapers and magazines, he couldn't help but want to tuck his head into the quilt and act like an ostrich.

On the other hand, Teacher Lin has been eating and drinking these days, calmly and calmly, and has remained unmoved in the face of a flood of criticism.

If Tong Zhonggui looked up to Lin Weimin more for his talent before, then after these days of turmoil, he admired Lin Weimin's character and mind more.

He couldn't help but feel heartbroken by Teacher Lin's righteousness and majestic atmosphere.

He felt that he had learned something from Teacher Lin again. This is the power of role models!

The ups and downs in the outside world are not stopping for a moment, but Lin Weimin still maintains his own rhythm. He goes to work and off work every day.

I thought that I would stay at work peacefully and pretend to be my grandson. As time goes by, the turmoil should gradually subside.

But this morning, as soon as Lin Weimin went upstairs, he bumped into Qin Chaoyang.

"Let's go!" Tan Chaoyang pulled Lin Weimin out with a look of urgency.

"What's wrong?" Lin Weimin asked doubtfully.

"I'll tell you later."

Qin Chaoyang asked Lin Weimin to ride a motorcycle and pulled him to the street to find a secluded place.

Lin Weimin was confused, "What's going on with you? How did you catch up with the underground party?"

Qin Chaoyang sighed and said, "I just received the news that a working team will be sent to our editorial department today."

"Working group? Come down to our editorial department? Does Lao Yan know?" Lin Weimin's usual calmness was finally broken.

"Lao Yan just learned the news in the morning. Lao Meng and I also just learned the news. Lao Meng asked me to block you at the door first. Lao Rong and Xiao Zhu are packing your things. During this time, you can take a vacation first and wait for the work team. If you leave, come back!"

The Chinese Literature Society was of high rank, and the president, Lao Yan, was even more highly qualified. They had to send a working group and notified Lao Yan that morning.

This information is a bit scary. What level of leadership does this have to say?

I'm afraid the minister is not qualified.

But Lin Weimin felt that he was not afraid of slanting shadows, "It's not that serious, right?"

Qin Chaoyang shook his head and said: "At this time, be careful and you won't make a big mistake!"

"What will everyone do when I leave?" Lin Weimin asked worriedly.

"Do you think they are coming for us?"

Lin Weimin thought about it, and that was true.

"It won't cause trouble to the club and the editorial department, right?"

Qin Chaoyang shook his head again, "Who can tell me clearly? Let Lao Yan go back and tear him apart!"

Lin Weimin was full of confusion, "Suddenly, what is the reason for this?"

Qin Chaoyang hesitated for a moment and then said: "I heard that some old comrades found a certain leader together."

Lin Weimin felt sad and helpless, but not at all afraid.

"Have they read my novel?"

Tan Chaoyang's mouth showed a bit of sarcasm, "Anyway, I said I saw it!"

It is understandable that the content of "Lover" itself has triggered some criticism about eroticism. After all, not everyone likes this kind of content, especially for some moralists.

But if it is serious enough to require a group of people to complain, this reason may not be sufficient, unless it is based on the misleading content.

The most terrifying thing is to go on and on without limit!

While the two were talking, Rong Shihui and Zhu Changsheng found them carrying a bunch of things, which were all Lin Weimin's office supplies.

Tan Chaoyang patted Lin Weimin on the shoulder and said, "Let's go home and wait for a while before talking about it. Let's talk about it after the storm has passed."

Rong Shihui and Zhu Changsheng also stepped forward to comfort Lin Weimin. Lin Weimin smiled bitterly and said: "Leader, am I dismissed from my position?"

"What a relief! I'm giving you a holiday! This is called protective leave!"

"You have to have some time during the holidays, right?"

Tan Chaoyang pondered, his eyes unconsciously looking towards the office building of the Chinese Literature Society not far away.

"Don't worry, wait until after the new year."

Lin Weimin's heart sank. He was not worried about himself, but he heard the storm hidden behind Lao Tan's words.

This time, it might involve "Contemporary".

Lin Weimin couldn't help but think of the feedback he received when "Lover" was handed over to Lao Xie. It might have been better if he had not insisted on publishing it.

For the first time, feelings of self-blame and guilt arose in his heart.
