"Not bad, very good."
Su Tong smiled and patted the manuscript, "The characters Lao Zhang and Xiao Zhang are used very well in the novel. They blur the specific characters and highlight the common social phenomena that the novel wants to express. In recent years, society has developed rapidly, and various groups have
There are also more contacts between people than before, and many people at the bottom are anxious and insecure."
"I didn't design it specially, I just felt it was better when I wrote it and it matched my first feeling." Yu Dong said.
"It's right to follow your first feeling." Su Tong put down the manuscript and lit a cigarette. "There are thousands of stories in the world. If your novel just wants to tell a story to others, then everyone should read it every day.
Just read the newspaper. There are many twists and turns and bizarre stories in the newspaper. If literature wants to convey meaning, it must reveal the writer's perspective. Especially for social issues like this, if you simply write the story, it becomes
It became reportage, even ordinary news reports.”
"So this manuscript has been passed, right?"
"Do you still have to ask? It's passed of course. It's just that this issue has already been released and I can't catch it. I have to wait until November."
"I'm mentally prepared for this."
Su Tong nodded and asked, "How is Jin Yi's drama department doing?"
"In the early days of the establishment, everything was still in the exploratory stage. And I was just an engineer, so I followed the instructions of Principal Wu and others in everything I should do."
"If this drama department can be established, it will be good for you and Feiyu." Su Tong said this, knocked his head again, ran to the desk and took out a piece of paper from the drawer, "September
Are you going to attend the official book expo? I received an invitation letter here."
Yu Dong stretched his head to look at the invitation, shook his head and said, "I went there last time, forget it this time. It's not easy to go there."
"I'm not going to go this time either." Su Tong put the invitation away, "It's really not of much use to us."
After that, Yu Dong chatted with Su Tong for a few more words and didn't stay anymore.
After running to say hello to Liu Xuemin, Yu Dong left the magazine office.
As soon as he came downstairs, a young man came from the other side of the alley.
The young man came over to face him, his eyes first swept across Yu Dong's face, and then he glanced back. After staring for a while, he shouted: "It's you!"
Yu Dong already recognized the other person as Lin Kai, whom he met on the train last time.
"hello."
"It's really you!" Lin Kai looked at Yu Dong in disbelief, "Didn't you come from Shanghai? Why did you come here?"
He raised his head and looked upstairs again, "Did you just come out of Zhongshan Magazine?"
"Yeah, I have something to do here. Do you live here?"
"I live here. Didn't I tell you last time on the train that my home is next to the magazine. No, no, you haven't answered my first question yet. Didn't you come from Shanghai? How did you get there?
Coming this way?”
Yu Dong smiled, this guy was quite smart and didn't go around this problem.
"I'm from Shanghai, but I also work in Jinling. The person who was with me last time was my colleague."
"I thought she was your date." Lin Kai laughed and said, "We just happened to meet her. Come to my house and I will give you a magazine signed by Editor Su, as we agreed last time."
Yu Dong didn't move. He thought for a while and said, "Actually, I work in Jinyi and I know Su Tong very well, and I came here to deliver a manuscript to him."
"Why did you suddenly..."
Lin Kai suddenly reacted and stared at Yu Dong with a surprised look on his face, "You won't tell me that you are Yu Dong."
Yu Dong nodded and said: "I am indeed Yu Dong. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you my identity last time."
Now that it was the second time they met, Yu Dong didn't want to hide his identity anymore.
"You...I..." Lin Kai pointed at Yu Dong and then at himself, "No, no, why do I feel a little dizzy? You are Yu Dong, and I was still struggling on the train last time.
I recommend Yu Dong’s works to you. In fact, I am recommending your own works to you.”
"Actually, the magazine I gave you last time had my signature on the last page."
"The problem is that I have read that magazine before, why would I think of reading it again..." Lin Kai suddenly laughed, "Why does this not feel so real? I want to see you every day, but I never thought of it.
I met you without knowing it, and even talked to you so much. Hey, if I hadn’t seen you today, I wouldn’t have known about this for the rest of my life...probably not either.
Sooner or later you will be on TV, I will definitely recognize you."
Lin Kai's talkative nature was aroused again, and Yu Dong didn't say much, so he muttered a lot to himself.
The surprise and joy in his tone were not concealed at all, and his eyes never moved away from Yu Dong for a moment.
But Yu Dong was about to leave, "I may have some things I need to get back to work on."
Lin Kai said quickly, "Oh, oh, okay, you walk slowly, I won't disturb you anymore."
"When you have time, you can come to Jinyi to hang out with me. Don't forget that you still owe me a magazine signed by Su Tong." Yu Dong smiled and waved, then rode off on his bicycle.
Lin Kai watched Yu Dong ride out of the alley from behind. Then he suddenly remembered something and ran home.
After arriving home, Lin Kai rummaged through the boxes and finally found the magazine that Yu Dong gave him last time.
I turned directly to the end, and there were words on the last page.
"Gift to classmate Lin Kai - Yu Dong, 1992.07.20."
Fortunately, I didn't lose it.
This is a special ticket.
The only shortcoming is that this special signature is not signed on the separate booklet, but on the magazine.
Thinking of this, Lin Kai patted his head again. He was so surprised that he just looked at him. Why didn't he think of asking him for a signed postcard or something.
Stupid!
…
When Yu Dong arrived at school, Uncle Zhou stopped him: "Teacher Yu, I have your letter."
When Yu Dong stopped the car, Uncle Zhou said with a smile: "Teacher Yu, you arrived yesterday, right?"
"Yes, I arrived yesterday afternoon."
"No wonder, I was helping clean the house yesterday and didn't see you. There are four letters from you in total. Please collect them." Uncle Zhou sorted out the letters and handed them to Yu Dong, "Would you like to come in and sit down? Now let's
The communication room is much more spacious than before.”
Yu Dong smiled and stretched his head to look at the communication room. It was indeed spacious than before.
The new gate of the school was built in the summer. Not only the communication room, but the entire gate is very grand.
"But this door is big, so I think our school library is too small." Uncle Zhou said with regret.
Yu Dong then took a look at the library. Indeed, in contrast to the magnificent new door, the old library looked much stingy.
