Literary Master 1978

Chapter 78: His temper is quite good

"I don't agree!" The female classmate looked at everyone's stunned eyes and emphasized once again firmly.

Lin Chaoyang was stunned. I'm telling you about my novel. What do you disagree with?

Everyone was also confused. Who was getting married just now? Why don't you agree?

Everyone was stunned when they saw a female classmate approaching and looking at Lin Chaoyang with a serious face, "I cannot agree with your statement."

Lin Chaoyang asked instinctively: "What do you disagree with?"

"I think the role of Coyotito's mother in "Little Shoes" has a strong symbolic meaning. She symbolizes the mother image of the Chinese people since ancient times. She always contributes in obscurity but has never been recorded. And face it.

Compared with praising father's power and imperial power, Chinese people are ashamed to praise maternal love.

From "The Wrangler" to "Little Shoes", you have subconsciously ignored the role of mother. Xiao Xiaozi's mother in "Little Shoes" is a frail and sickly mother, and Xu Lingjun's mother in "The Wrangler" was abandoned by her wealthy businessman father and died in depression.

This is your subconscious mind. "

Lin Chaoyang looked confused and confused after being scolded.

The novel I wrote, and what else I don’t know?

Classmate, why don’t you do your reading comprehension in front of me, the author?

Lin Chaoyang looked at the female classmate opposite and couldn't laugh or cry. Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed a familiar feeling on her face.

More than thirty years younger, Lin Chaoyang almost didn't recognize him.

Is that you, Teacher Dai?

Were you so confused when you were in your twenties?

The face in front of me should be familiar to those who use Weibo or often watch short videos in the future. It is Dai Jinhua, who is well-known for his film criticism and feminism.

Ignorance is a joke, at least Dai Jinhua's feminism is several levels higher than the pastoral feminism of later generations.

"Uh, this classmate, 伱...what's your surname?"

Teacher Dai seemed to have been a debater when she was young, so it’s best not to recruit her.

"Level 78, Chinese Department, Dai Jinhua!"

Teacher Dai is worthy of being Teacher Dai. He is only a sophomore and has such a personality.

"It seems you like my novels very much?"

When you encounter a stupid person, you can't be tough, you have to be gentle.

Dai Jinhua also knew that her tone was a bit harsh. Seeing that Lin Chaoyang always had a gentle attitude, she felt a little embarrassed.

"Your novel is good, but I think there is still room for improvement."

Lin Chaoyang smiled, "I'm just a primary school student when it comes to writing novels."

Listening to his words, Dai Jinhua suddenly didn't know what to say.

I'm a bully but you're not a bully. What a bully is most afraid of is facing Lin Chaoyang's attitude.

After struggling for a few seconds, Dai Jinhua opened his mouth and said dryly: "It is indeed well written!"

"Thanks!"

After saying this, Dai Jinhua nodded to Lin Chaoyang, turned around and left.

This guy has a really good temper!

When she was far away, her colleagues who had been watching the conversation between the two burst into laughter.

"Oh, no, I'm laughing so hard!"

"I don't agree, I don't agree! Haha!"

Doing reading comprehension in front of the author is indeed a performance art.

Dai Jinhua was here just now, and no one had the nerve to laugh. Now that people are gone, they are laughing unscrupulously.

There is nothing I can do about it. Seeing Lin Chaoyang, the author, being questioned by readers and having nothing to say, the scene is really too funny.

Du Rong laughed and asked Lin Chaoyang: "Chaoyang, do you think what the female classmate just said is right?"

Her questions were naturally meant to be ridiculing.

Lin Chaoyang spread his hands indifferently.

"The works are written for readers. A thousand readers have a thousand Hamlets in their hearts. Whatever she says is right."

Lin Chaoyang pretended not to want to defend this kind of thing, but he attracted the admiration of his colleagues, who all gave him a thumbs up.

"The pattern of Chaoyang!"

The leisurely noon time passed quickly. In the afternoon, Lin Chaoyang squatted in the library, occasionally receiving call cards to find books for teachers and students. The remaining time was spent writing the novel he promised Du Feng.

Lin Chaoyang has never been exposed to war, nor has he been deeply involved in the army. The creation of the novel completely relied on various first-hand information provided by Du Feng and his comrades.

During this period, the writing speed of the novel was not very fast, but it was still going smoothly. After all, he had works in his mind that he could learn from.

After getting off work in the evening, Lin Chaoyang was stopped by an acquaintance as he walked out of the library.

The person who came was Zou Shifang, who had previously organized the May Fourth Literary Society with Chen Jiangong. There was someone beside him, but he was a stranger.

Through Zou Shifang's introduction, Lin Chaoyang learned that the other party was Guan Qingsong, the editor of the editorial department of "Yenjing University Journal".

The two of them came to Lin Chaoyang this time because they wanted to interview him on behalf of the school magazine.

"I just wrote two novels, why should I be interviewed?" Lin Chaoyang declined politely.

Guan Qingsong said: "Comrade Chaoyang, you are belittling yourself. Although compared with the literary predecessors, you do not have as many works as them, but you are not far behind in terms of influence."

Lin Chaoyang waved his hand, "Just kidding, just kidding."

"I'm not joking, but..."

Lin Chaoyang looked past the two of them, far away, and waved in that direction.

Tao Yushu's bicycle stopped near a few people and asked Lin Chaoyang: "Is something wrong?"

"The editor in charge of the school magazine and classmate Zou from the May Fourth Literary Society said they wanted to interview me." Lin Chaoyang explained to Tao Yushu, and then introduced them to the two of them: "This is my lover Tao Yushu."

Tao Yushu's eyes lit up when he heard Lin Chaoyang's words.

The school magazine wants to interview Lin Chaoyang?

"Stop talking here, talk at home!" Tao Yushu took the initiative to extend the invitation.

So the group of people walked towards Langrun Lake. Guan Qingsong kept his eyes on Tao Yushu from time to time.

News that the daughter of Professor Tao from the Department of History found a son-in-law from the countryside and brought him into the city has been widely circulated in Yanda since last year.

This year's news update has revealed that Professor Tao's rural son-in-law is actually Xu Lingjun, who wrote "The Wrangler".

The faculty, staff and students of Yanda are full of curiosity about Professor Tao's affectionate and discerning daughter.

After entering the house, Tao Yushu took out the host's warm hospitality to Guan Qingsong and Zou Shifang.

Tao's father went to an appointment with a friend tonight. Tao Yushu was afraid that his mother would cook less, so he ran to the kitchen and said to his mother: "Mom, make two more dishes tonight!"

Mother Tao frowned, "Why do you cook so many dishes?"

"The people from the school magazine are here to interview Chaoyang. They may have to wait for a while in the evening. We can't let people go hungry." Tao Yushu said very low-key.

school magazine?

Mother Tao's face showed surprise.

After Tao Yushu finished speaking, he ignored his mother's expression and turned around and left the kitchen.

"It's a school magazine, what a fuss!" Mother Tao couldn't help but muttered, knowing that Tao Yushu had just told her on purpose.

Although she said she disliked it, Tao's mother still got busy.

Tao Yushu came out of the kitchen over there and arranged Guan Qingsong and Zou Shifang into her and Lin Chaoyang's room. Tea was made and cigarettes were prepared, regardless of whether Lin Chaoyang was willing to be interviewed.

"Jade book..." Lin Chaoyang opened his mouth.

Tao Yushu, who was busy, raised his head and looked at him, with only four words flashing in his eyes: I hope my husband will become a dragon.

Lin Chaoyang closed his mouth silently. He looked at Guan Qingsong with a fearless face: Come on!

Tao Yushu nodded happily.

Although "Yenjing University Journal" is just a school magazine, in terms of its history, it is probably better than most domestic newspapers and magazines.

On November 16, 1917, the predecessor of "Yenjing University Journal" - "Yenjing University Journal" was born. It was initiated by Cai Yuanpei, the president of Yenching University at the time, and played an important role in the history of China's New Culture Movement and the history of modern Chinese newspapers had an important impact.

The main editors of the "Daily" at that time included Shen Yinmo, Hu Shi, Chen Duxiu and many other great talents. The "Daily" had a "Song Ballad Selection" column, and the editor-in-chief Liu Bannong was full of talents.

Later, due to the turmoil of the current situation and historical changes, the YSU journal changed its name several times, ceased publication several times, and resumed publication several times.

In 1978, the journal of Yenching University resumed publication and was named "Journal of Yenching University".

From the May 4th Beacon War, the Great Wall Beacon Fire, to the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, Socialist Transformation, Humming, Reform and Opening Up... the YDU campus journal records the major events in the development of YSU and China since the May 4th New Culture Movement, although it is not the kind that is publicly distributed. It is widely reported by the media, but its influence in universities across the country is unique.

The content of the school magazine also covers academic, literary and artistic, speech, miscellaneous and other fields, covering various subject areas of YSU.

Many modern masters and famous figures such as John Dewey, Gripp, Zhang Taiyan, Jiang Menglin, Hu Shi, Lu Xun, Ji Xianlin, Feng Zhi, etc. have published articles, remarks and academic opinions in the school journal in various forms.

Of course, Lin Chaoyang today cannot compare with these masters, but the school magazine not only publishes articles by masters and famous names, but also records the experiences and articles of ordinary faculty, staff and students of Yanda.

Guan Qingsong interviewed Lin Chaoyang today mainly because he caused an uproar in the literary world as a librarian.

The interview started with small talk. After the two parties got acquainted with each other, Guan Qingsong asked his questions.

"Did you say that "The Wrangler" was your first novel? Or was it published in a nationally influential magazine like "Yanjing Literature and Art"?"

"Well, I just had the idea to give it a try. After all, it was my first time to write a novel, and I didn't expect it to be published right away.

The original plan was that if "Yanjing Literature and Art" didn't work, I would switch to other provincial-level literary journals, and if it didn't work, I would submit it to prefecture-level literary journals. "

Guan Qingsong smiled when he heard this, "You don't accept death."

“For those who have become famous and have a family, there may be a face-related issue in which magazine their work is selected for publication.

But for me, a primary school student on the road to writing, as long as I can get published, then the royalties will subsidize my family. "

Guan Qingsong nodded slightly. His first impression of Lin Chaoyang was very good. He saw in Lin Chaoyang the simplicity and reliability of a farmer. What was even more rare was his humility.

For such a young man in his early twenties, it is extremely rare.

Guan Qingsong saw many college students at Yanda who boasted of being extraordinary and criticized Fang Qiu. Lin Chaoyang's modesty and low-key made him feel good about him.

"You said you could write novels and get royalties to support your family. Is this the purpose of writing in the first place?"

Lin Chaoyang nodded with difficulty under Tao Yushu's gaze, "You know the situation of my husband and I. Yushu is still studying. I am just a temporary worker in the library. The salary is not high. I still live at home. My father-in-law and mother-in-law have helped us a lot, especially Yushu's mother..."

Tao Yushu raised her eyebrows. She never expected that Lin Chaoyang would mention her mother at this time.

She knew very well how her mother treated Lin Chaoyang.

Because she opposed her marriage from the beginning, she showed a cold attitude from the moment her husband came to this family. At the beginning, she would say a few unpleasant words to Lin Chaoyang from time to time.

After a few months of getting along, she may have seen that her husband had good character and morals, so she said less cold words, but her attitude was still not good.

After the news of her husband's novel was exposed, although her mother didn't say anything, Tao Yushu found that her attitude was much better than before.

In any case, her husband has been angry with her for more than half a year, but he has never complained. Instead, he would often enlighten her who was angry with her mother.

Tao Yushu knew clearly the grievances he had suffered. When she thought that all these grievances were for her, Tao Yushu was moved.

Today, Lin Chaoyang praised his mother again in an interview with the school magazine. Tao Yushu felt a little hot on her face when she heard it.

She recalled her mother's usual cold words, and she loved Lin Chaoyang even more, and had more opinions about her mother.

She found such a good son-in-law, and she was not satisfied at all!
