Choose a day to become famous

Liu Jiazhen couldn't help but laugh.

Liu Jiazhen said: "When I stayed at home and wrote novels, my parents said the same thing, wondering if I was suffering from depression because I never went out and had no friends."

Mingyin sighed: "It turns out we have all encountered this problem."

Liu Jiazhen: "People who engage in this kind of creative work will encounter this situation more or less."

Mingyin turned to look at Lu Yanhe, smiled and said, "Big star, is it difficult for you to understand us on this matter?"

Lu Yanhe nodded honestly, "I have never had this kind of experience before."

"However, I can still feel this feeling." Lu Yanhe said, "When I was reading "Star Orbit", there was a person in it who was an illustrator. She stayed alone most of the day. She was obviously working every day. She paints, but in the eyes of her family, she has nothing to do at home every day and is very lazy. They don’t understand her working status. They even think that she doesn’t need to live in a big city and can go home. When I read that paragraph, I I just wonder if Sister Mingyin is in your mood."

Mingyin nodded in surprise and said, "You really read my novel carefully."

"I like it very much." Lu Yanhe said.

"I thought you preferred crime mystery novels."

"I like crime mystery novels, and I also like other well-written novels." Lu Yanhe said, "I like all stories. I liked listening to stories when I was a child. When I grow up, I look for my own stories and find the stories I like. "

The three of them stood at the door chatting for a while. At this time, Xu Xiaoyin came over again.

She also laughed when she saw the three people standing together again.

"Just in time, the three of you are here, so I don't have to ask one by one. Later our publishing house wants to shoot a documentary about this book fair. The original plan was to only record and not interview. The editor-in-chief just made a temporary decision , or do you want to include some interview clips in it, I wonder if you can arrange it? This documentary will only be used as a highlight reel, and will be released on some media accounts of our Jiangyin Publishing House, without any other promotion.”

Lu Yanhe looked at the two writers, smiled, nodded, and said, "I have no problem."

He is an artist, and of course at this stage he needs exposure, big and small.

Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin hesitated instead.

"I feel very nervous in front of the camera." Mingyin said, "I was very nervous in Lu Yanhe's live broadcast room last time."

Liu Jiazhen also nodded, "Me too."

Xu Xiaoyin obviously knows her two "social fear" authors very well. She smiled and said: "How about we give it a try first. If it doesn't work, we won't let this interview clip appear in the feature film, okay? The main thing is Many of you readers are also looking forward to it.”

Mingyin: "Okay then."

"Yeah." Liu Jiazhen also nodded.

-

At half past nine, the book fair opens on time.

In the lobby on the first floor, there is information about the activities of various publishing houses, writers, and celebrity guests.

Li Pengfei searched among the crowd and quickly found the information about Jiangyin Publishing House.

"On the fifth floor! Lao Lu has a sharing at ten o'clock." Li Pengfei turned around and said to everyone.

As soon as he finished speaking, a girl beside him said in surprise: "Lu Yanhe is also here today!"

The companion next to her immediately asked in surprise: "Really? Where is he? I want to go see it!"

"On the fifth floor, in half an hour."

"Then let's go to the fifth floor first!"

"Uh-huh."

As the two girls said this, they happily squeezed out of the crowd and went upstairs.

"Oh, that star who scored more than 600 points in the college entrance examination is here today." A mother who brought her child also saw Lu Yanhe's name, and her eyes instantly lit up. "His sharing speech will be at ten o'clock. , let’s go and listen to his speech first. His grades are so good, so listen carefully!”

The child's face instantly wrinkled into a bitter gourd.

"No! I want to see Jiang Shan!"

"Jiangshan's autograph session lasts two hours, you still have time! Go to Lu Yanhe's place first!" Mom dragged the person away without any explanation.

Conversations like this are still happening at the same time.

…

Li Pengfei blinked in surprise, turned back to Linyu and the others and said, "It seems like Lao Lu doesn't need us to support him at all."

Chen Qin rolled his eyes and said, "I told you a long time ago, he is very popular now and there is no need for us to support him."

Li Pengfei: "Then why don't you increase the popularity of your old classmates?"

"I didn't say no, I just said that you underestimate Lu Yanhe too much." Chen Qin spread his hands and said.

Linyu: "Let's go up. It looks like there will be a lot of people at Jiangyin Publishing House's booth later. Let's hurry up and grab a better spot, otherwise we may not even see Lu Yanhe."

Li Pengfei: "Let Chen Qin pick you up and sit on Chen Qin's shoulders to watch."

Linyu: "..."

Chen Qin: "..."

Chen Siqi felt funny when she heard Li Pengfei's words, but she was embarrassed to laugh on the spot, so she turned her head and looked to the other side.

-

The exhibition hall of Jiangyin Publishing House is very large, occupying nearly half of the fifth floor.

There are both book booths and autograph booths.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the stage in the middle.

This small stage is backed by a high wall, and a large electronic screen is erected. The electronic screen is playing the schedule of today's activities of Jiangyin Publishing House.

The scene is already running.

Many people came to the place responsible for book sales.

People also gathered at the stage.

There were five rows of seats in front of the stage, all with name tags on them. They were seats for the publisher itself and specially invited media and partners.

When Lu Yanhe arrived at the scene led by Xu Mingyue, he immediately caused cheers and screams.

He did not do any styling today, dressed a little more formally, a pair of black trousers and a white shirt, with a refreshing and sunny image.

But this scene caused some discussion among media people.

"He didn't put on any makeup today."

"Yes, but he's still handsome. It's good to be young. He's still handsome without makeup."

"Nineteen years old, what a nostalgic age."

"We're almost thirty."

"However, isn't Lu Yanhe's cooperation with Jiangyin Publishing House a little too close? I was already surprised when he helped two authors of Jiangyin Publishing House sell books before, and he actually came to the book fair today."

"Now he's taking this cultural route, everyone gets what they need."

"Why do you make him sound so utilitarian? Can't he really love reading?"

"Why would a person who loves reading go to the live broadcast room to read? Isn't it just to let others see him reading?"

...

These discussions reached Lu Yanhe's ears intermittently.

He sat in the first row and heard these voices, controlling his expression without being affected by anything.

As an artist, he found that he heard such voices more and more.

For everything he did, everyone would have their own interpretation, and firmly believed in their own interpretation.

Cultural route?

Lu Yanhe wanted to explain to these people that he had never considered taking this route.

How could a 19-year-old boy choose such a route for himself?

But think about it, there is nothing to explain.

Mainly, explanation is useless.

Chen Ziyan had told him a long time ago.

He himself didn't know.

It's not like he really doesn't know about the entertainment industry.

"Yanhe, are you OK?" Mingyin, who was sitting on his right, suddenly asked.

Lu Yanhe came back to his senses and smiled at Mingyin, "Hmm?"

"Did you hear the voices of those people talking about you behind you?" Mingyin asked in a low voice.

A trace of worry appeared on her face.

Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "It's okay."

"It seems that your work also has many bad situations that we haven't experienced." Mingyin smiled softly and said, "Do you often hear such voices in your work environment?"

"I can't say often, occasionally, but it's nothing. I'm engaged in a job that faces many people's comments." Lu Yanhe said this, in fact, he was also comforting himself, "I must persuade myself to accept it."

Liu Jiazhen heard the two of them whispering, looked over and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Mingyin shook her head, "Nothing."

At this time, the host walked onto the stage and reminded everyone that today's book fair activities were about to begin.

-

"It's about to start!" Chen Qin looked back at the host who appeared on the stage and said to Linyu who was still browsing the book market. Hearing this, Linyu pulled Chen Siqi and said, "Let's go over."

Li Pengfei had already helped them occupy the position closest to the stage.

Seeing the three of them coming over, Li Pengfei complained: "Where did you go just now? You're so slow."

Linyu said: "We just went to the bookstall next to us. Didn't Yanhe recommend a few books before? I plan to buy some to read at home."

"Do you have time to read now? It feels very difficult for you to come out today. Aren't you preparing for your competition?"

"You always have to rest. How can you always prepare for the competition?" Chen Qin said immediately.

Linyu: "Yes, you always have to rest."

Li Pengfei felt a little sorry that Xu Zijun had to be a tutor today and couldn't come to this book fair.

Otherwise, Xu Zijun should like this place very much.

She is also a person who loves reading.

Li Pengfei plans to buy a few books for her.

Among the writers who came to sign books today, in addition to writers who have just debuted such as Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin, there are also several national-level writers. Xu Zijun prefers to read traditional literary works. Li Pengfei plans to buy a set of signed copies of the books of these great writers and take them back today.

"Where is Lu Yanhe?" Chen Qin asked.

Li Pengfei pointed to the first row, slightly to the right, "It's there."

"Oh, I see it." Chen Qin sighed, "After graduating from the college entrance examination, it felt like he and we were in two different worlds. We were still waiting for the admission letter and curious about our future college life, but Lu Yanhe had already entered the adult world."

Lin Yu smiled calmly and said, "We all have to enter the adult world. He entered earlier and we entered later, but we are still in the same world. We should not feel that we are separated from him by a world because of the temporary gap."

"Look at your girlfriend, she is so conscious and generous. Look at you." Li Pengfei looked at Chen Qin with disdain, "Fight for courage, Chen Qin."

Chen Qin was so angry that he took a deep breath.

Chen Siqi looked at Lin Yu thoughtfully.

What Lin Yu said just now was calm and mature, unlike their peers.

Linyu is the liberal arts top scorer in No. 13 Middle School this year, and is also among the top ten in Yuming City. She was a class monitor before, and her grades have always been very good. She is a star-level student in the school and has attracted much attention.

Chen Siqi had heard about Linyu's calmness and calmness that was beyond her peers, but hearing these words with her own ears today still surprised Chen Siqi.

Compared with her, Chen Siqi felt that her pretense was mature and seemed a lot more "pretentious".

Not real maturity.

At this time, the people standing on the stage began to introduce Lu Yanhe after the president of the publishing house made a relevant introduction.

"Reading is an indispensable part of everyone's life. This summer, we all met a young man named Lu Yanhe. He has many identities. Before June this year, he was still a senior high school student. Before his senior year in high school, he was an idol artist who debuted at the age of fifteen. After the college entrance examination, he became an actor. He had just completed the filming of a new drama directed by Luo Yuzhong. Under his multiple identities, he was still an actor. As a reader who loves reading, many people know that because of his recommendation in his live broadcast room, the two books "Nineteen Years of Crime" and "Star Orbit" by Jiangyin Publishing House have entered the best-selling lists of major books. , he once said in the live broadcast room that reading is a kind of rest for him. I am very happy to invite him to the scene to share with you about reading. I invite you, Lu Yanhe."

"Oh——" Li Pengfei suddenly raised his hands and put them in front of his mouth and cheered loudly.

Originally, many people applauded at the scene, but his voice was too loud, even shockingly loud, so that many people withdrew their eyes from Lu Yanhe who stood up, and turned to look at Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe also looked over in surprise.

When he saw it was Li Pengfei and the others, he showed a surprised expression and waved to them.

Li Pengfei also waved back excitedly.

When many eyes met, Chen Qin was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and get in.

Chen Siqi also feels the same way.

She glanced at Lin Yu and saw that Lin Yu could not hide her embarrassment under her pretended calm appearance, so Chen Siqi breathed a sigh of relief.

-

Lu Yanhe walked onto the stage and took the microphone from the host.

"Hi, good morning everyone, I am Lu Yanhe. I am very happy to meet you here today."

Lu Yanhe smiled and greeted everyone. Facing hundreds of people in the audience, he felt a little nervous.

"Those guys just now are my high school classmates. I didn't know they would come today. It's a special surprise. Don't sneak away. I'll come back to you later." Lu Yanhe said to Li Pengfei and the others.

The others looked at them again.

Li Pengfei smiled brightly (silly).

Lu Yanhe looked away, "Actually, I was quite frightened when I received this invitation, because I am only nineteen years old. If it weren't for my status as an artist, I'm afraid no one would want to listen to me talk about such a serious topic as reading. "

Everyone laughed good-naturedly.

Including those in the media.

"However, after thinking about it, it's quite good. Some people will ask me to sing, and some people will ask me to act. There are even people who ask me to teach you how to study and how to do well in exams. It may be difficult for you. I believe that some counseling organizations have even asked me to be their spokesperson," Lu Yanhe said with a smile.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Lu Yanhe waited for two seconds for the laughter to fall, and then continued: "But no one will ask me to talk about reading, which makes me regretful, because reading is a very important part of my life, not because today is Book fair activities, I say this, but because reading has special meaning to me, I have the courage to come here and risk being laughed at by many people, "Why are you standing here?" to share what reading means to me. significance."

Lu Yanhe could see that the expressions on everyone's faces gradually became serious.

"In my senior year of high school, I worked very hard because my foundation was very bad, but if I wanted to get into a good university, I had to go all out and sprint. In this state, I experienced a lot Things that I didn't even think about had nothing to do with the exam, but related to myself. When I was so sleepy that I couldn't keep my eyelids open, I asked myself what the meaning of getting into a good university was, and I was being questioned. When I was ridiculed, I asked myself why I couldn’t give up on myself and be a mediocre person. When I faced many difficulties that I cannot explain in detail now, I asked myself whether I could get a good result through persistence and non-compromise. If not, what should I do? ?”

"This is what I asked myself as a senior high school student. Should other people have similar questions about themselves?"

"But where can we find the answer? Not every question can be answered right away." Lu Yanhe said, "After the college entrance examination, one day, I went to a bookstore with my friends. I actually didn't know what had happened recently. I just wandered aimlessly in the bookstore and picked out a few books based on my own interests. One of them was "Nineteen Years of Crime."

The live broadcast camera suddenly cut to Liujiazhen at this time.

Liu Jiazhen's face appeared on the big screen behind Lu Yanhe.

Liu Jiazhen also saw his face, and he showed a surprised look.

Lu Yanhe looked back at the big screen and laughed, "Yes, it is the book written by this teacher Liu Jiazhen. Maybe when I talk about it here, it will give everyone an illusion. I want to say that reading this book helped me find The answer to my questions is, no, it’s not that.”

"My heart was filled with too many questions, but at this time, I started to read "Nineteen Years of Crime". I read it in one breath, and then I entered another state completely. Simply "I forgot about myself for the time being," Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "I seemed to have another perspective. While reading the book "Nineteen Years of Crime", I looked back at my past. One year, all the boredom, melancholy, and incomprehension that I had experienced throughout my senior year of high school seemed to have been taken away from me.”

"Reading is the key to entering a world that has nothing to do with ourselves. We can generously put aside all worries and enter a new world."

"I'm not trying to say that reading can reduce our worries. In fact, after we enter a new world, maybe it's like landing on the moon. Everyone who lands on the moon from the earth can't help but look back. Look at the appearance of the earth. In each book, I thought I had entered a new world, but I repeatedly saw the shadow of my own life and the past. "I said this, will you all agree?" Think I'm contradicting myself? One moment I say it helps me forget about myself, and the next I say it makes me see myself. Trust me, that's the only description I can think of right now that expresses how I really feel. "

Xu Xiaoyin and Liu Cheng both stood at the side of the stage.

They were all focusing on the subsequent work process, but unknowingly, they stopped what they were doing and began to listen to Lu Yanhe's sharing.

When Xu Xiaoyin heard this, she couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that he could share such true feelings."

"Didn't that girl Xu Mingyue write a manuscript for him?"

"It's completely useless." Xu Xiaoyin said, "I've read the manuscript and Lu Yanhe is completely useless."

"The things he said were too personal, and many people present may not be able to understand them."

Xu Xiaoyin said: "But those who have read the book will definitely understand what he is talking about."

Lu Yanhe stood on the stage and continued: "From forgetting myself to seeing myself, reading is like a filter. It filters out the sorrow and suffering that real life brings to me, and leaves behind all the warmth and strength, because it is filtered , so it’s clearer.”

"I still remember the story of the man who silently supported his autistic son from behind in "The Orbit of the Stars" created by Teacher Ming Yin. After the death of his mother, the son learned that the friends around him were all killed by his mother back then. Please, ask them to try to be friends with him. At this moment of knowing, sadness, discomfort, warmth, happiness, reluctance, so many emotions all appeared in an instant. I was touched by the story, and also by these "I was emotionally touched," Lu Yanhe said, "I am not autistic, nor have I ever encountered a situation where it was difficult to make friends, nor have I experienced such support and care from my mother. Logically speaking, I have no similar experience of empathy. It wasn’t that touching, but I have to admit, I burst into tears at that moment, and I couldn’t help but wonder why.”

"I was thinking that it was because I saw myself and another self that might exist. In a certain world, I have autism. I have been silently supported by such a mother for many years. I have such a I put myself into a group of happy friends, so there was another me in my life. So, after coming out of the book, I looked at myself in reality and gained a perspective to re-examine myself. "

"When I read adventure stories, I am brave, overcoming obstacles, and wise and courageous."

"When I read fantasy stories, I am the magic wand in my left hand and the magic stone in my right hand."

“When I read mystery stories, I am quick-thinking and incredibly insightful.”

"Every time I read, I can see a new me. Reading does not require similar experiences to empathize. Reading gives us one more experience, so we can gain more feelings and experiences."

"So, when you have nothing to do, go to the bookstore, buy one or two books, find a time only for yourself, and meet the self in the book." Lu Yanhe said, "When you think you are reading other people's books, When you read the story, you must not realize that in your subconscious, that other person is yourself. In another period of your life, the questions and answers about your life will often not seem so important. "

"Thanks."

After Lu Yanhe finished sharing, he bowed to everyone.

There was silence for two seconds, and applause began.

Lu Yanhe returned the microphone to the host and stepped down.

Many people were filming him with their cell phones and cameras.

When Lu Yanhe passed Li Pengfei, he stopped and looked at them with a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were coming?" Lu Yanhe said.

"You don't need to worry about us. Let me tell you what you are doing in advance." Li Pengfei said, "Lao Lu, what you shared just now confused me. I didn't understand many parts, but I can feel what you are saying. What."

Lu Yanhe smiled and looked at Chen Siqi, who was standing at the back.

Chen Siqi also glanced at him.

"Let's have dinner together at noon." Lu Yanhe said.

"I can't. I have to pick up Xu Zijun. You can eat." Li Pengfei said immediately.

Chen Qin also said: "Linyu and I have something to do later. She has an appointment with a teacher to prepare for the competition next month."

Lu Yanhe: "You are all so busy. Well, we haven't eaten together for a while."

"Let's make an appointment later." Li Pengfei said, and suddenly remembered something, "Chen Siqi is still here, you can eat with her."

Chen Siqi subconsciously wanted to say that she also had something to do, and Lu Yanhe nodded immediately, "Then it's settled, then you wait for me, I'll be done soon."

The ceremony has not ended yet, and Lu Yanhe can't leave now.

Especially when Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin are going to have their autograph sessions, he plans to go to the scene to ask them for autographs.

Lu Yanhe nodded to Chen Siqi, turned around and went back to his seat.

Chen Qin sighed: "Lu Yanhe looks completely different now than he did a year ago."

"Are you envious?" Li Pengfei asked.

"I admire you." Chen Qin shook his head. "Such a transformation must have taken a lot of effort."

"That's right." Li Pengfei rarely quarreled with Chen Qin and nodded in agreement.

Several young people were talking, and suddenly a young man came over and said with a smile: "Are you Lu Yanhe's classmates? I'm a reporter from the Art Newspaper. Can I ask you a few questions about Lu Yanhe?"

Several people shook their heads at the same time.

Lin Yu said: "Sorry, we don't answer any questions about Lu Yanhe."

She shook her head slightly.

"It's just a few simple questions. We can find a place to sit and chat. We can also pay you."

"Thank you, but no." Lin Yu still refused firmly, "Please don't disturb us."
