The moonlight was like water, shining on the earth. It was already past nine o'clock when Li Jie came out of the yard, and he was naturally absent from tonight's self-study class.
Back in the dormitory, everyone was still burning the midnight oil as usual, absorbing knowledge hungrily like sponges.
Su Changqing heard the sound of the door opening, put down the book in his hand, and looked around.
"Lao Wu is back?"
Li Jie nodded lightly: "Well, I'm back."
Su Changqing raised his eyebrows and asked mischievously: "Tsk, tsk, I heard you went to Huayin today. How was it? Aren't the girls there particularly beautiful?"
As soon as these words came out, except for the boss Yang Tingzhou, everyone else in the dormitory pricked up their ears.
Li Jie smiled slightly. These guys appeared to be studying seriously, but in fact their minds were no longer on the book.
The oldest person in the dormitory is Yang Tingzhou, who is already thirty this year. The others, even Xu Bing and Hu Xiafeng, who are already married, are actually not very old.
Xu Bing, the eldest, is only twenty-five. At this age, he has just graduated.
"Of course there are a lot of beauties, and most of them are artistic and have good temperament, but these have nothing to do with us. We can neither see nor touch them."
Su Changqing curled his lips: "That's not necessarily the case! When my buddy is free, he will go to investigate the enemy's situation first, and then come back and report to everyone. The single people in our dormitory will do the total together!"
After saying this, Su Changqing showed a smirk on his face and glanced at Li Jie teasingly.
"Oh, by the way, except Lao Wu!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the dormitory, and everyone turned their attention to Li Jie.
"Lao Wu, do you have a partner?"
"When did it happen?"
"What grade are you in?"
"Which class are you in? What's your name?"
Li Jie smiled and shook his head, glared at Su Changqing, and then explained.
"Don't listen to the nonsense of the third child. I am also single. The person he saw yesterday was my girl."
Su Changqing ignored the glare, laughed, and said, "Sister? I'm afraid you're not your lover's sister?"
"What's going on? If Lao Wu doesn't tell me, tell us quickly!"
The second eldest brother, Xu Bing, is calm on the outside but fanatical on the inside. In today's terms, he is a sultry person. In just a few days, his true nature has been fully exposed. He loves to listen to all kinds of gossip and even calls it "his second son".
Based on a novel.
Yes, Xu Bing could no longer suppress the surging creative desire in his heart and began to write his first short story.
When writing a novel for the first time, many people use their own personal experience as the material, and Xu Bing is no exception. The protagonist of the novel he wrote is an educated youth who jumped in line, and the character prototype is a friend around him.
The core of the novel is to use stories to criticize SI/REN/BANG. This type of subject matter is not new, it is the hottest topic nowadays.
Using this theme to create works can just create a wave of popularity, otherwise it would be difficult for him, a newcomer, to get published in newspapers and magazines.
As a large number of educated youths poured into university campuses, these young people who were admitted to university did not forget to discuss various social issues and criticize the current ills while studying.
Pointing to the country, writing passionately, being a bookish scholar, scolding Fang Qiu.
Various study groups and societies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. They often gather together to study or discuss. The learning atmosphere is unprecedentedly strong.
Occasionally, when I meet people who agree with me, I each write a poster, and then stand under the poster and debate with others.
The most famous one is Chu Zhicai, a freshman in the Department of Literature. Only a few days into the semester, this guy has already competed with others for more than a dozen times, and he has never lost a single one.
There was a debate meeting in which Chu Zhicai fought against eight freshmen, and finally won the battle, which was quite a bit like a verbal battle with the Confucian scholars.
After that, Chu Zhicai became famous in one battle and became a well-known strong debater on campus.
When these people came together, they communicated more and the stories became more varied, which aroused many people's desire to create.
They either create novels based on themselves or the stories of the people around them. Novels are the carrier. Their real purpose is either to criticize, to vent, or to...
The public opinion environment at that time was relatively relaxed and not as strict as imagined, especially in universities. Some university journals even openly wrote articles criticizing the old man for engaging in capitalist restoration, being a thief, and the biggest thief in D.
of the capitalist roaders.
Looking back now, I feel really sad. The older generation really had to cross the river by feeling the stones. In the international environment at that time, Rabbit had no reference target at all. Big Brother had already drifted away by that time, and there was no big problem.
Reference meaning.
If we did not insist on reform, how could the rise of great powers come about?
As for whether it is good or bad, everyone will know by referring to the country next door.
Back to the main story, Xu Bing, the second eldest brother, saw more and more people starting to write. Some people's novels were published in journals, and some were published in newspapers and magazines. He could no longer suppress the turmoil in his heart.
So I picked up my pen and started creating.
"So so, so so!"
The third child, Su Changqing, described the scene at that time with very exaggerated body movements as he spoke.
"Ouch! That's it!" X4
After hearing the description of Su Changqing, the second eldest son, Xu Bing felt very itchy and asked with a playful smile.
"Lao Wu, when are you going to bring your partner to us for a look?"
Li Jie didn't look back when he heard this and was too lazy to pay attention to them. He took out a stack of manuscripts from the drawer and handed it to Yang Tingzhou next to him.
"Boss, how are you doing with your English review recently? I took on this batch of manuscripts to translate them from Chinese to English. I've been busy with other things recently and don't have much time. See if you can translate them."
Yang Tingzhou has a good foundation in English. After this period of unannounced review, he finally regained some confidence.
He took the manuscript paper and looked at it carefully.
It seems that this manuscript is not difficult to find, and the words are not particularly uncommon, but the name of the protagonist is a bit strange, it is called "Harry Potter", a very strange name.
This is obviously the name of a foreigner, but it happened to be written in Chinese.
'Why did Lao Wu get such a strange job?'
Half an hour later, Yang Tingzhou flipped through the manuscript. Although the manuscript didn't seem particularly difficult, he was confident that he could try to translate it.
But he had never done translation work before, and he was afraid of messing up the matter. He was not worried that he would not get paid, but that he would cause trouble to Li Jie.
"Lao Wu, let's just... forget it."
Li Jie had been observing Yang Tingzhou's facial expressions and saw all his inner hesitations and struggles.
"Boss, I know what you are worried about, but this manuscript is not in a hurry. It can be submitted within a month. You can try to read it later. After you finish it, I will proofread the manuscript and wait for the payment.
