Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 48 Jealous Bogut

After Kevin got out of the car, he called Wall, and then Wall came out in person and took Kevin into the Red Lantern Tavern.

As for whether this tavern was opened by a Chinese, Kevin also asked Wall, and Wall told him that it was not opened by a Chinese, but a Japanese.

The cultural salon of "Times Weekly" was held in the lobby on the third floor of the Red Lantern Teahouse. When Kevin walked to the door, he really felt a literary atmosphere. The surroundings of the hall are covered with some antique poems. Kevin glanced at them, and some of them were written by Shakespeare.

Moreover, all the decorations inside are also arranged in terms of literature and art, and it really deserves to be a cultural salon. When you are here, a breath of culture has already blown your face.

"Time Magazine" invited about 30 writers to participate in this year's cultural salon. These 30 writers came from various places in the UK, but Wall told Kevin that only Kevin was from Edinburgh. This made Kevin feel a little sense of pride.

These 30 writers had already arrived here, and Kevin was the last one to arrive. Kevin followed Wall and found that ten of the thirty writers were women. And there are not many good-looking people among them.

But at this time, besides the beautiful woman, he also found a familiar figure. Yes, the man who just helped him pay the taxi fare. Just the man who had just laughed at him for not being eligible for the high culture salons. So, Kevin walked over and greeted the other party.

"Hi, friend, we meet again." Kevin patted each other on the shoulder and said.

The man turned around, his whole face full of surprise.

"You... why did you appear here? Oh, I remember that Wall said that he has a nephew who will come here today, the purpose is to learn how to write an article. Could it be that you are Wall's nephew?" The man road.

"No, friend, I'm not Wall's nephew. I'm also a writer, and I'm also here to participate in this cultural salon." Kevin said seriously.

"What? Say it again." The man couldn't believe his ears. You must know that a few minutes ago, he laughed at Kevin and said that this is a noble activity that cultural people participate in. If he appears, it will cause others to laugh. But now Kevin actually appeared here.

"Friend, I'm also a writer, and I think I'm here to participate in this cultural salon. I'm glad to meet you again. Oh, thank you for helping me pay the taxi fare just now." Kevin said affirmatively.

"How is it possible? It has been five years since I participated in the cultural salon of "Time Magazine". During these five years, I have never seen you, and I have never heard of Wall and the others." The man said.

This man is Bogut, who is one of the columnists of "Times Weekly". Before "Times Weekly" signed Kevin to write the column, there was only one column called "Talking About Life". All the articles in this column were written by Bogut. of.

Bogut has also accumulated a lot of fans in "Time", so many people buy "Time" to read his articles. Because of this, Bogut has become a frequent visitor to Time Magazine's culture salon.

In fact, as Bogut said, he is very familiar with many of the editors and editor-in-chief of "Time". Over the years, every time I participated in this cultural salon, I made a list in advance and announced it to each other. Before setting off, Bogut also read the names of today's participants. Although he was not familiar with all of them, he generally knew them.

But why did this young-looking guy appear here? He is a writer? But what kind of excellent works can such a young man write? What can it do for Time Magazine?

Wall was just too busy talking to a writer to notice that Kevin was accosting Bogut. Now that I came back to my senses, I was also surprised.

"Kevin, you know Bogut? That's great. You two happen to be contributors to two columns of Time Magazine, and now you know each other too. That would save my introduction." Wall said.

"No, Mr. Wall, Mr. Bogut and I just took a taxi together before we set off, so we don't really know each other." Kevin explained.

"What, respected Mr. Wall, you just said that the other party is a column contributor to "Times"? Hasn't "Times" always had only one column? Isn't this column always written by me? When will it become two? A column?" Bogut wondered.

"Oh, it was decided by the company today. The sales volume of "Time Magazine" is good now, so we decided to add an extra column to meet the needs of readers. And this column is written by Kevin." Wall explained.

"What? Write it by him? Mr. Wall, are you sure you and your company are not confused? Create a column for this young teenager?" Bogut was simply incomprehensible.

No matter how I say it, I am also a well-known writer, and I got the position of a columnist by writing a lot of articles for "Times Weekly". Now that Kevin has opened a column for him to write directly at a young age, this naturally makes Bogut puzzled.

"Yes, Bogut, I think this is a good choice. Kevin is a very talented writer, and his "Jane Eyre" is also selling very well in the market. Loyal readers." Wall said affirmatively.

"But for such a young writer, it's a bit sloppy to set up a column for him to write manuscripts. You must know that young writers have a lot of instability." Bogut said.

"No, respected Mr. Bogut, Kevin's talent is very stable. You will find out in time, his brain seems to be full of inspiration and never runs dry."

"Well, let's hope Time doesn't lose a lot of sales because of it."

Even Wall has already expressed his position like this, and Bogut can't say anything. At most he was just upset. But he has reason to believe that the readers of Time Magazine always come for his own articles, and there is no need for him to be jealous of a newcomer. Besides, Time Magazine will regret it if the column for Kevin fails to attract readers. They will also get rid of this column.

"Okay, I'm going to talk to a few friends about things. You should get to know each other first. Perhaps, there will be more opportunities to meet in the future."

Wall finished. Then walked towards the other side.

After Wall walked away, Bogut said: "Guy, the facts will prove that I am the gold medal writer of "Time Magazine."

"Sorry, Mr. Bogut, I have no intention of arguing with you for these or those things. The reason why I agreed to write a manuscript for "Time Magazine" is entirely for Wall's sake. After all, when others doubted me, he once Called to encourage me." Kevin explained.

"It doesn't matter, when the time comes, you will know the distress of not having readers to write to you."

The letter from readers that Bogut said refers to that after the readers bought Time Magazine, they felt that a certain writer’s literature touched him, or the writing was more exciting, and then these readers would write letters to Time Magazine, and In the letter, praise the writer's writing style and talent.

Bogut has written manuscripts for Time Magazine for so many years, and has received many such letters from readers over the years. It's also part of what he's always been proud of.

Therefore, he has reason to believe that even if "Time Magazine" opened a column for Kevin, he will always receive the most letters from readers.
