Chapter 180 Maintain Existence
“You, the Vice President of Xihe, are well-deserved to be on "Get". I showed this issue of "Get" to Shen Qingfeng today, and he was half I can’t say a word, haha!”
Lin Feng smiled crazily, like a citizen who watched a tax collector being hanged during the French Revolution, full of joy from the bottom of his heart.
Wang Zixu felt that he had not heard the name Shen Qingfeng for a long time. He quickly glanced at Ning Chunyan and asked in a low voice:
"Did you show it to Shen Qingfeng?"
"Yes, Shen Qingfeng was still shouting some time ago, saying that you are too weak as the vice president, and it was the teacher's favoritism that helped you to the vice president position..."
Wang Zixu interrupted him: "Why did he jump out again? Wasn't he silent some time ago?"
"How can he be silent? Silence is a lie, pretending to be dead is real. When everyone forgets his embarrassing incident, he will naturally come out to regain the right to speak."
Whether it is Gou Yingbiao or Shen Qingfeng, they have all gone with the wind in Wang Zixu's case. He feels that this is a kind of wisdom in life. Forgetting helps to live longer.
It’s just that he didn’t expect that with Shen Qingfeng, what happened before would also disappear with the wind.
"Speaking of which, isn't it your fault?" Lin Feng said suddenly.
“Huh?”
“Who told you, the vice-president of the Xihe Literary Association, that you haven’t published a new work for half a year? Don’t you stay in the literary world? If you have a sense of existence, he will naturally find ways to discredit you."
Lin Feng was a bit complaining, making Wang Zixu feel ashamed, as if it was his fault for not publishing new works.
He sighed: "I now deeply understand that the most valuable work of a writer is always the next work."
Lin Feng said: "Hey! What you said is very good, can I use it in my work?"
"Yes." Wang Zixu said, "In addition, the reason why I have been silent for half a year is mainly because I wrote 600,000 words for this novel, which took up all my energy."
"60, 600,000 words?" Lin Feng choked on the other end of the phone, and then his voice became excited, "Then "Get" selected your manuscript and published it in full?"
“Hmm.”
“Then I have to study your works better,” Lin Feng said. “Such a large novel is destined to leave its name in the history of our Xihe culture. This is a major event for our Xihe Literary Association. I am going to report to the teacher and see if there can be a seminar on your works.”
Wang Zixu sneered, why are you guys here to hold a seminar? After hanging up the phone, the air suddenly became quiet.
He silently put his phone back in his pocket and explained to Chen Qingluo without embarrassment: "Lin Feng, the president of the Xihe Literary Association, my friend, called to say hello."
"600,000 words, Li It’s terrible.” Chen Qingluo said in a faint voice, “It took up all the energy, and I didn’t even have the energy to tell me about being accepted by “Get”.”
“...”
Wang Zixu fell silent in embarrassment. It's more like pretending to be dead than being silent.
Ning Chunyan forced a smile and said: "Qingluo, do you still care about this?..."
"But I didn't take up the energy to tell Ning Chunyan, what happened?"
"..."
Another silence.
The atmosphere was like a corpse slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea. At this critical moment, Wang Zixu's cell phone rang again.
"Hello, Chief Liu?"
A voice that I hadn't heard for a long time sounded on the other end of the phone: "Zixu, congratulations! I heard that your novel was published in "Get"? I heard them say that this is the highest-level literary magazine, so haven't you already become a first-class writer?"
王子虚说：“过誉了过誉了，只是登了一篇稿子而已。”
刘科长说：“梅主任今天提起来，我还吓了一跳，那个王子虚竟然成长得这么快。 Okay, let’s not talk nonsense. This year, Xihe is making a list of cultural celebrities, and you are very likely to be among them. Come back and take a look, and say hello to Director Mei. ”
Wang Zixu agreed, hung up the call, and another call came in.
“Hey, Zhang Wei? Yes, yes, it’s me, the one on “Get” is me, and you’re asking for an interview? Didn’t you have an interview before?”
Zhang Wei said: "The last interview was half a year ago. As for exposure, the more the better. You are from Xihe, so of course you have to support the cause of my fellow villagers! The title of this interview is based on the theme of the long-form publication of "Get". What do you think?"
"Uh..."
Wang Zixu was still hesitating, and Ning Chunyan, who was next to him, whispered: "Promise him, Shi Shuqiu can promote himself, why can't you?" After hanging up the phone, he asked Ning Chunyan: "Can you hear the sound I just made on the phone?"
Ning Chunyan said: "It's so quiet, it's hard not to hear it."
Chen Qingluo said quietly: "Even people a hundred and eighty thousand miles away know that if I don't come to the seminar today, I'm afraid I will be the last one to send blessings to you, Mr. Wang Zixu."
< br>Although it could be heard that she had used up all her yin and yang power, the tone in which Chen Qingluo said "Master Wang Zixu" was very cute. Wang Zixu wanted to laugh but did not dare, so she carefully said:
“I didn’t tell anyone, they all knew it themselves and called to say hello.”
Ning Chunyan said: “This It’s like being poor in the mountains and having no one to care about, but being rich in the city and having distant relatives.” She deliberately said the opposite to be cute, but neither of the two people around her complained about her, which made her very unhappy.
Wang Zixu’s cell phone rang again.
“喂喂，刘飞？是我……记得记得，老同学嘛。谢谢谢谢，谢谢祝贺……哎你过誉了……什么？《歌行》杂志？没听说过……”
……
南大的男生寝室分东、西、南三个苑，西苑是最老的。 The dormitories here have an old European style of architecture, in other words, they are squat tube buildings.
The second floor was originally designed to be the living area, and the first floor was the utility room and boiling water room. However, as the number of students expanded, the first floor was also partitioned off and used as dormitories. At every meal time, students going to the cafeteria passed by the windows, and people in the room could even be seen picking their feet or sleeping.
Liu Kairui, the moderator of the NTU Campus Forum, lives here. Nanjing University has a high terrain, he is young and strong, and does not suffer from rheumatism. The dormitory fee is cheap, so he is very satisfied.
When Shi Shuqiu rushed in, he was picking his feet at the computer. There was a bang at the door. When he saw Shi Shuqiu, who was panting like an ox, he was shocked.
“Old Shi, what are you doing?”
“Quickly, help me change a few posts.”
He rushed in and was about to use the computer. Liu Kairui snatched the mouse back: “Wait a minute...who scolded you on the forum?”
"No," Shi Shuqiu dragged a stool and sat down, "Isn't it a seminar today? Their press team is going to shoot a video, which may contain footage of the forum. There are a few posts that are not very harmonious. I want you to lock them and set them to be invisible."
When Liu Kairui heard this, he rolled up his sleeves and said: "It's a small matter, you tell me which post is not good, I will close it."
"Okay, you search first, Wang Zixu."
Hearing this name, Liu Kairui turned to look at him.
“What’s wrong?” Shi Shuqiu asked.
“Why is it Brother Chang?” Liu Kairui asked, “Shouldn’t your name be searched?”
"Don't worry, you search first. I will explain it to you after searching."
"Oh."
Liu Kairui found a few posts, not many in number, all relatively cool, except for one that was hotter, with more than 70 replies, the title was [After watching Wang Zixu's "Wild Weeds", I think...], the poster was "Zhang Chou".
“Hey, Zhangchou, it was your little brother who posted it.” Liu Kairui said.
“Open this post and take a look.” Shi Shuqiu pointed at the screen and said.
Liu Kairui clicked on the post, and the two of them glanced at it together. The main idea of the post was that "Wild Weeds" has an old-fashioned structure and outdated story, but only the writing is pretty good.
Shi Shuqiu put his finger on his lips and pondered for a moment, then said: "Set this post to be invisible."
Liu Kairui said: "Ah? Why? That makes sense."
"There is no reason, can you help me with this?"
Liu Kairui nodded: "Okay... turn it off."
After he set the post to be invisible, Shi Shuqiu said: "Click on the post posted by Zhangchou and take a look."
Liu Kairui clicked on it and dragged it down, all related to "Chang Ge".
Shi Shuqiu patted his head: "Come to think of it, no wonder there are so few posts about Zizixu. They all say 'Brother Changchang' on the forum."
Liu Kairui smiled and said: "Brother Chuanchangchang, Who doesn't know that you became famous after a fight in front of the hospital leaders? Professor Huang even made a joke about it in class." After he finished speaking, he noticed that Shi Shuqiu's face didn't look good, so he quickly shut up. Shi Shuqiu snatched the mouse, slid it a few times, and suddenly felt dizzy.
Zhang Chou is very loyal, it would be better to say that he is too loyal. Shi Shuqiu had previously suggested that he go to the forum to "speak for himself", and Zhang Chou listened. There were at least hundreds of posts related to "Brother Chang" in his posts. There are two or three posts with the same theme as the post "Wild Weeds" just now.
Other posts deconstructed Wang Zixu from various aspects such as language, literature, pioneering nature, character, appearance, personality, clothing, appearance, family background, etc., and the words used were not very polite.
Because of the well-known incident, the replies below the post inevitably pulled Shi Shuqiu out and trampled him. In contrast, Brother Chang looked a bit ugly, and for a while, there was a happy atmosphere inside and outside the post.
Shi Shuqiu held his forehead for a long time. He had not noticed that he had brushed a lot of bars one day before, but now he realized that the situation was so serious that there were so many accumulated together.
“Delete this one, hide this one.” Shi Shuqiu pointed at the screen and commanded.
Liu Kairui complied. While clicking the mouse, he said: "Old Shi, what's wrong with you? It doesn't matter if these things go in. This is Brother Chang's business. Just prepare for the seminar. Why do you care?" Shi Shuqiu frowned: "Don't worry about it."
After saying that, he realized that he The tone was not very good, and he said in a gentle tone: "Hurry up, the seminar is about to start. I'll go after you finish deleting. If you move slower, I will be late for the seminar. I will treat you to a barbecue later."
"Hey, I have to hurry up, don't delay your participation in the seminar."
After deleting a few more downvoted posts, Liu Kairui said with a smile: "Lao Shi, I understand, do you think these broadcasts will have a bad impact on the reputation of our school? You didn't even bother to cover up the previous suspicions. You are so thoughtful!"
Shi Shuqiu didn't say anything. He looked down at his watch and said impatiently: "Can you set a keyword to hide all related posts with one click?"
“Okay.”
“That’s it, there’s no time.”
"What keyword?"
"Just..." Shi Shuqiu thought for a while, "Brother Chang. Hide all mentions of 'Brother Chang', including comments."
Liu Kairui shook his head and sighed in his heart, Shi Shuqiu is worthy of being Shi Tonghe's son, he is really noble and honorable.
Today is obviously the day he leaves the industry. After the seminar, his reputation and status in the Chinese literary world have been completely established. He is the first one to mention young writers. Chang Ge and his ilk are insignificant at all, just a speck of dust that no one will care about if it lands in a corner. I didn’t expect that he would even take this kind of care into consideration. Why isn’t this a kind of gentleness?
Shi Shuqiu watched him hide all the posts mentioning "Brother Chang" before he walked out of the boys' dormitory with confidence, and then dialed Han Fei's number.
"Hey, Han Fei, where are you? The south gate? Okay, just wait there, I'll come find you... if something happens."
I borrowed a bicycle and rode to the place. Han Fei, Xu Rongrong and Zhao Peilin were sitting next to Ruixingli drinking coffee. Shi Shuqiu was stunned when he saw an outsider.
“Hey, look who’s here?” Xu Rongrong greeted with a smile, “A big star is here?”
Zhao Peilin saw him and turned his head to the side silently.
He doesn’t want to talk. My throat hurts a little.
I had a quarrel with Xu Rongrong, and after watching "Get", I cursed and growled at the escaping prince, which hurt my throat a bit.
Thinking about it now, to Wang Zixu’s ears, the previous quarrel must have been purely for enjoyment. He threw "Get" to him and ran away, obviously wanting him to help slap him in the face.
He just didn’t want to help. After Wang Zixu left, he put away "Obtained" without saying anything. Xu Rongrong asked him what was wrong and didn't say anything.
He also wants to enjoy it.
So later Xu Rongrong mocked him a few more times. After hearing this, he just sneered and didn't even refute. This made Xu Rongrong feel very bored, so she temporarily called a truce, and the three of them went to drink cheap coffee together.
Shi Shuqiu came over and said to Han Fei: "Han Fei, can you take a step to speak?"
Han Fei followed him to the side, and Shi Shuqiu asked in a low voice: "Zhangchou submitted a newsletter to your school newspaper before, do you remember?"
Han Fei blinked. Eyes: "It's 'our' school newspaper, not 'your' school newspaper!"
"Okay, our school newspaper. Do you remember that article?"
Han Fei said: "Remember, it was about the one where many students in the school had their manuscripts rejected, and Wang Zixu had his manuscripts rejected several times?"
"That's right." Shi Shuqiu nodded. He asked, "Hasn't that article been published yet? If it hasn't been published, please help me withdraw it and don't publish it."
Han Fei blinked: "Why?"
Shi Shuqiu frowned and said: "You know, Zhang Chou is a good friend of mine. He wrote this manuscript, which is a bit provocative. I'm afraid he will get into trouble."
Han Fei said: "But he said, you read this manuscript and it was very well written. Okay. "
"He's talking nonsense! I didn't read it, I didn't say it. I didn't know he wrote this manuscript. That's what he told you? Then this manuscript can't be sent to him. He is pretending to be an imperial edict." Shi Shuqiu quickly denied it.
Han Fei said: "But, we have all laid out the layout. We have to publish it today. If we withdraw this manuscript, we have to rework it again!"
Shi Shuqiu begged: "Miss Han, I will treat you to milk tea. I will cover the milk tea for a month, okay?"
"One and a half months."
"Okay, okay."
Han Fei went back happily, and met Zhao Peilin and Xu Rongrong coming out. Seeing that she was alone, Zhao Peilin asked: "What did Shi Shuqiu tell you?"
