If he had followed the normal rhythm, Lin Chaoyang should have appeared in front of someone at this time and shocked the whole audience by casually reciting one or two classic poems that would be passed down by later generations.
It was a pity that the young people present did not give him this opportunity. They did not pay much attention to Lin Chaoyang's arrival. They chatted with him for a few words and then were completely immersed in the enthusiasm for poetry.
Lin Chaoyang didn't feel that he was being left out, he could see that these people really loved him.
However, he had no enthusiasm for this kind of thing. On the contrary, when Cha Jianying continued to recite poetry, the conversation between Chen Jiangong and Zhang Yaozhong aroused his interest.
"Hey, did Zou Shifang really write a letter to Mr. Mao Dun?" Zhang Yaozhong asked Chen Jiangong.
"Well, the person from the Youth League Committee agreed and he wrote the paper. Mr. Mao Dun is an old school friend of ours and will definitely give him face."
Lin Chaoyang asked curiously, and Zhang Yaozhong told him everything he knew, just like asking questions.
In the 1950s, Yanda once had a poetry club that was well-known among universities across the country—the May Fourth Literary Club.
Early members included Wu Zuxiang, Xie Mian, Feng Zhi, Qian Liqun and others. These people later became professors at Yan University and were also important figures in the Chinese cultural circle.
Last year, the country resumed the college entrance examination. Among the 77-level students, there were a few who were able to make ends meet. Led by Zou Shifang from the Department of Philosophy and Chen Jiangong from the Department of Literature, they made suggestions to the Culture Department of the Youth League Committee of the school, hoping that the proposal to organize the May Fourth Literary Society could be resumed.
It was approved by the Youth League Committee.
At the same time, the Youth League Committee and the YSU Student Union also began to prepare the May 4th Literary Society’s magazine, and wrote to Mr. Mao Dun hoping that he could write a launch speech and inscribe a title for this new publication.
After listening to Zhang Yaozhong's words, Lin Chaoyang felt a little impressed. Firstly, it was because of the organizational skills of these students, and secondly, it was because of Yanda's love for these students.
During the break between Zhang Yaozhong and Chen Jiangong's conversation, Lin Chaoyang thought of the novel he was writing.
As the saying goes, be prepared for a rainy day. After the novel is finished, it will definitely be published. Zhang Yaozhong has published poems in "Yanjing Literature and Art" before, so it is a good opportunity to consult him.
"Yew Chung, are the review standards of Yanjing Literature and Art high? Do you have any editors you are familiar with?"
"Brother Lin, do you want to submit a manuscript?" Zhang Yaozhong asked curiously.
Lin Chaoyang nodded, "I have this idea."
Zhang Yaozhong became interested and asked: "What subject matter are you writing about? Poetry? Novel? Or prose?"
"novel."
"Novel..." he said in a deep tone, "I have met the editor of the poetry department, but the problem is that he doesn't care about you."
As he spoke, he rolled his eyes and pushed Chen Jiangong over.
"You have to ask Jian Gong for this matter. He is the old author of "Yanjing Literature and Art"."
Zhang Yaozhong told Chen Jiangong about Lin Chaoyang's idea of ​​​​submitting a manuscript, and he laughed heartily, "I am not an old author. I have only submitted manuscripts to publications a few times. But if you don't mind, Chaoyang, I can read some of your masterpieces."
, give you some reference.”
Lin Chaoyang smiled and said: "Thank you very much, Jian Gong. But I haven't finished the novel yet, and I happened to see you today. How about I wait until I finish the novel and bother you again?"
"I'm so happy!"
With a guide for submission, Lin Chaoyang thanked Chen Jiangong again, and after chatting with everyone for a few more words, seeing that it was a bit late, he said goodbye and left.
Looking at his back, Zha Jianying asked Zhang Yaozhong: "Are you familiar with that comrade?"
"I met on the train. Brother Lin's father-in-law is Professor Tao from the History Department."
When Zhang Yaozhong introduced the two parties just now, he only introduced their names and identities, and did not introduce any unnecessary information.
"Professor Tao!"
Everyone has heard of Tao Jingfa's name. He is one of the powerful professors in the history department, but his reputation is not well known outside.
Professor Tao's son-in-law, this was the first impression everyone in the Chinese Department had when they met Lin Chaoyang.
It was already half past six in the evening when Lin Chaoyang returned home. Tao's mother and Zhao Li were serving dishes to the dinner table. Seeing him come back, Tao's mother looked worried.
"On Sunday, you have to play outside. Have you done all your homework? Have you reviewed all your homework?"
Tao Yumo, who came back two minutes earlier than Lin Chaoyang, was scolded by his mother twice, with a blank look on his face. If you wanted to scold you, you should have scolded him earlier. I didn't scold you when I entered the house just now, but now I have to scold him when I want to eat.
She felt aggrieved, but she was good at observing words and emotions, and quickly realized that her mother was scolding someone else.
Inexplicably taking the blame for Lin Chaoyang, Tao Yumo vented his anger at being scolded by his mother on Lin Chaoyang, and looked at him with a bit more hostility.
Tao Yushu was thoughtful and well aware of her mother's accusations and scoldings. However, she could not say anything more about her mother's cunning and hurtful ways. She could only give Lin Chaoyang a helpless look.
Lin Chaoyang was very clear about his mother-in-law's opinion of him, but he felt that instead of trying to please his mother-in-law, who didn't like him, he should spend all his energy on his father-in-law, who favored him.
Tips for the workplace: There is only one leader in the unit, and you must understand the situation clearly when you stand in line.
After explaining his work today in a casual chat, Tao's father nodded in approval.
"You have just arrived at the unit. Helping your colleagues will help unite the comrades." Tao's father picked up the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up the food.
As it should be."
"That's what you said."
"Well, let's eat."
The family was having dinner, and Tao Yushu gave Lin Chaoyang an appreciative look.
Over the past five or six days, Lin Chaoyang has slowly adapted to the work at Yanda Library, and has gradually become familiar with his colleagues. He feels at ease when he touches fish with ease.
The work in the library can be said to be very busy, but it can also be said that it is very leisurely. It is usually busiest in the morning, noon and evening, because students are not in class at this time, so people flock to the library in large numbers, and the borrowing room and self-study room are always full of people.
people.
By the time students are in class, work will be much more leisurely, and there will be more time for leisure.
Lin Chaoyang used this time to complete the creation of his first short story.
It's no use just finishing the novel, you have to publish it to get money.
It was Sunday again. Lin Chaoyang did not run to help his colleagues on duty, but walked south with the freshly baked manuscript.
Building No. 32 is a simple gray brick building built in 1958, just south of Yannanyuan, a small foreign-style building where professors live.
On the day they met at Zhongting, Chen Jiangong told Lin Chaoyang where his dormitory was and asked Lin Chaoyang to come to the dormitory to find him after he finished writing the manuscript.
Today is Sunday, and students have no classes. There are many students in the corridor carrying washbasins with clothes in them. They must be going to the water room to wash clothes. Some people are carrying toiletries to go out.
Went to take a shower.
Others put on breezy clothes and walked together in small groups, with the leader carrying a basketball around his waist. They were preparing to go to the basketball court to sweat, and Chen Jiangong was among them.
"Jiangong!"
Lin Chaoyang greeted him very familiarly, and Chen Jiangong responded kindly: "Chaoyang!"
He knew that Lin Chaoyang must be here to deliver a manuscript, so he said to the classmates beside him: "You go ahead, a friend will come to see me. I'm not here, so fight well and don't lose too badly."
"Just in case you're not here, we will definitely beat the Economics Department by 20 points." His arrogance was rebuffed by his classmates, and the group of people parted ways with laughter.
Chen Jiangong led Lin Chaoyang into the dormitory and poured him a glass of water.
Chapter completed!
