1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 214 Teacher Lin is elated

April 1982, 12, sunny.

Today is the day when the awarding ceremony of the first Yanbing Literary Award will be held. This awarding ceremony will be held at a higher level than the previous National Excellent Short and Novels Awarding Ceremony, and the venue will be held in the Great Hall of the People.

It is also an award sponsored by the Cultural Association, the difference is that Mr. Yan Bing's name is hung this time.

Compared with the previous award presentation, the Yanbing Literature Award presentation this time lacks a lot of familiar faces.

The last award ceremony was more like a big gathering within the literary circle. Except for the award-winning writers, the people who came were basically people from literary associations and publications from all over the world.

This time, not only is the standard higher, but the composition of the people attending the award ceremony is also more complicated. The most obvious change is that it covers many people in the literary and art circles besides the literary world.

More than 600 people from the literary and art circles attended and participated in the first awarding ceremony of the Yanbing Literature Award.

The last time it was called a "meeting", this time it was called a "ceremony". The name alone is much more formal.

Without so many acquaintances, naturally there are not many opportunities to say hello.

Lin Weimin came with Mr. Wan today, but Mr. Wan was an invited guest, and was invited away as soon as he entered the door.

Among the others, he is most familiar with Gu Hua who also won this award with "Furong Town".

The two came to the stage one after another at the award ceremony and secretly exchanged a few words.

After finally waiting for the award ceremony to end, Gu Hua found Lin Weimin.

"Gu Hua!"

"For the people!"

The two shook hands, with smiles on their faces after a long absence.

"I was going to look for you, but something delayed me." Gu Hua said.

"It's okay, call Xiaowei tonight and have a get together."

"No problem. By the way, I saw the director just now, why don't you go and say hello?"

The director Gu Hua was talking about was naturally Xu Gang, who was the director when he was studying at the Literary Research Institute, "Really? I didn't pay attention, so I'll go say hello to him, and we'll talk later."

Lin Weimin greeted Gu Hua and went to find Xu Gang. He found Xu Gang among the crowd.

"Hello teacher! Hello Ba! Hello director!"

When Balao saw Lin Weimin, he laughed, "Jiabao's proud disciple is here!"

Mr. Wan was also here at this time. Hearing Balao's ridicule, he had a somewhat smug smile on his face, "Don't be envious!"

Xu Gang was standing next to Mr. Balao and Mr. Wan at this time, and he also laughed and said: "Speaking of which, Mr. Wan has to thank our Institute of Literature for finding such a disciple as Weimin for you."

Mr. Wan said: "Not only do I want to thank you Institute of Literature, but I also want to thank the Association of Literature and Art, thank you Yaotang!"

The Literature Research Institute is an organization under the Literature Association, Mr. Wan said that there is nothing wrong with it, Balao and Xu Gang couldn't help laughing.

Xu Gang said: "Speaking of which, the student class of the Institute of Arts and Sciences has been resumed for several sessions, but in terms of results, the students in Weimin's fifth session are the best."

Balao nodded and said, "I remember that Gu Hua from "Furong Town" is also a student of the fifth batch."

Xu Gang said: "Not bad."

After speaking, he looked around, saw Gu Hua standing not far away, and quickly waved to him, "Gu Hua, come here."

Gu Hua heard the call and hurried over, and when she ran up to see Balao and Mr. Wan, she immediately understood Xu Gang's intentions and was grateful.

"Hi Mr. Ba! Mr. Wan!"

The two old men nodded with a smile.

Balao said with a smile: "Young Gu is good! The first phase of the Institute of Literature has produced two winners of the Yanbing Literature Award. Xu Gang's work performance is outstanding!"

"Hearing what you said, Balao, the work of our literary research institute has not been done in vain."

The award ceremony, which was full of flowers and flowers, came to an end. When walking outside the auditorium, Lin Weimin told Xu Gang and Gu Hua about Guo Yudao's situation. Both of them looked surprised.

"Yudao is only in his forties?" Xu Gang asked.

"45 years old!" Lin Weimin replied.

"Ah, so young." Xu Gang's tone was full of regret.

Gu Hua regretted, "If I knew about this news, I should have come to Yanjing sooner."

"At that time, I wanted to inform the teachers and classmates in Yanjing or near Yanjing, but Lao Guo didn't want to, because he was afraid of disturbing everyone."

Gu Hua shook her head and sighed, "This old Guo is always like this, always thinking of others."

He thought for a while and said, "Go and see him in Xining when I return."

"He'll be happy."

After coming out of the important place, Lin Weimin invited Xu Gang to the evening party together.

Xu Gang had something else to do in the afternoon, and said, "I won't be attending your young people's party anymore. You haven't seen each other for so long, so take this opportunity to get together."

Lin Weimin and Gu Hua went to Qu Xiaowei's unit to find him, but he left for half a day early.

A few people found a restaurant and had a drink.

Gu Hua was slightly drunk, "I still remember that I went to "Contemporary" to revise the manuscript the summer before last. At that time, Weimin ran to the editorial department when he had nothing to do. I dare say he went to work."

Qu Xiaowei laughed and said, "That's right, there are so many people in our class, no one would have thought that they would enter "Contemporary" quietly for the people. In the past two years, not only did they write brilliantly, but they even became editors. That's right. The "Life" written by Lu Yao was published under him, and the article "My Remote Qingping Bay" by Shi Tiesheng."

Gu Hua raised his wine glass at this moment, "Wei Min is born to eat words!"

"cheers!"

Several people took a sip of wine, Qu Xiaowei sighed again: "It's a pity, you and Lao Guo missed a few days before he returned to Xining."

Gu Hua's face became serious, "It's okay, I'll take a detour this time to see him. The old man has been gone for a long time, I didn't expect..."

Speaking of this, the mood of several people was a little low, and in the end, the words full of words could only be turned into a sigh.

With the end of the awarding ceremony of the first Yanbing Literature Award, news about the award was also published in major newspapers across the country, and the names of several award-winning authors and their works resounded across the country again.

In fact, the 80s Yanbing Literary Award did not add much to the winners and works, but more affirmation of the quality of the works and the author's status.

The reason is also very simple. In the 80s, there were many domestic literature lovers. Most of these award-winning works were published for four or five years, and few of them were published for one or two years. They are no strangers to literature lovers, and they are no strangers to these authors. .

When everyone hears that these works have won awards, they are more discussing whether the writers and works are worthy of their names, and what regrets there are.

On the contrary, in the late 90s, pure literature gradually declined, and the bonus of the Yanbing Literature Award for writers and works increased a lot.

The reason is that the public is not as familiar with these names as before. Only with the affirmation of public opinion and honor of the Yanbing Literary Award this time can it gain the attention of the public that is usually difficult to attract, thus creating the kind of "ten years of cold windows with no one". Ask, become famous all over the world in one fell swoop" phenomenon.

Lin Weimin declined all requests for interviews, except for the group interviews he received from two national newspapers under the organization of the Cultural Association before and after the award. This is his usual style.

In the past two years, as he has made more and more achievements in creation, more and more interview invitations have been made, but he declined them all.

If he had just entered the Institute of Literature and Literature, he would have jumped forward when encountering this kind of interview, but for him now, this kind of interview is more like a burden.

It not only takes up his time, but also may affect his normal life.

Fortunately, in this age, information is not yet developed. If his photos are widely known in the streets and alleys, wouldn't it be a burden to go out in the future?
That afternoon, Tan Chaoyang found Lin Weimin and said that there was a call from the office for him, saying that it was his cousin.

When the word "cousin" was mentioned, Comrade Lao Tan's eyes were somewhat inquisitive. Lin Weimin has been in "Contemporary" for more than two years, but he has never heard of any cousins. Tan Chaoyang became even more suspicious about leaving the office.

"Hey, cousin!"

Lin Weimin picked up the phone, but his eyes were on Tan Chaoyang who was following him back.

After all, it's someone's office, so it's not the case to kick him out every time.

"For the people, our program has passed, and I'm going to Yanjing!"

Tao Huimin's voice on the phone seemed to break through the barrier of space, shaking Lin Weimin's eardrums, and made him fully feel the joy of his little girlfriend.

"That's great, when will you come to Yanjing, I will pick you up then."

"We're leaving for Yanjing the day after tomorrow. Don't come to pick me up. I'll go with the troupe. You won't be able to pick me up when you come. I'll call you when I get there."

"Well!"

Lin Weimin hung up the phone with a relaxed smile, and was greeted by Comrade Lao Tan's face full of gossip.

"Weimin, are you talking about a girlfriend?" Comrade Lao Tan asked with a smile on his face.

"Ah, yes."

Lin Weimin had never said anything about being in love on purpose, and he would not hide it. He made a phone call to guard against Lao Tan, simply because he didn't want him to listen to his privacy.

"Not bad!"

The expression on Tan Chaoyang's face was a bit like that of a pig farmer who found out that his pigs finally knew how to make cabbages.

Not long after, Liu Yin leaned over to Lin Weimin with a gossipy face.

"Weimin, I heard you're in a relationship?"

Lin Weimin:?

Good old Tan, I used to think that you have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and that the rumors in the Ganqing Club are all from you?

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Yao Shuzhi also came over, "Really? Can you still fall in love?"

I***
Yao Shuzhi sensed the strong murderous intent in Lin Weimin's eyes, and changed her words: "Then my sister's classmates are going to cry to death, and those little girls all regard you as a literary idol."

"No, I'm just a novelist." Lin Weimin had a clear idea and said modestly.

"What's the matter? Are you dating for the people?"

After getting the news confirmed by him, the comrades in the editorial department gathered around him as if they were watching some strange event.

What the hell do you mean?
Everyone gathered around Lin Weimin for a long time before they finally got a few truths out of his mouth.

When they heard that Lin Weimin met him when he was helping Renyi to go to Zhijiang on a business trip, they all ridiculed him for using public affairs for personal gain.

Lin Weimin sneered in his heart: You haven't seen the real fake public benefit!

In this way, the news of Lin Weimin's love affair quickly spread throughout the Guowen Society, causing countless unmarried and unmarried young women of the right age in the Guowen Society to sigh.

The biggest benefit of this news for Lin Weimin is that it makes the topic of his orientation that has been secretly circulated on a small scale in the society tend to disappear.

Lin Weimin is already in love, so it's a bit too much to spread the word.

A few days later, Lin Weimin was at work, and Tan Chaoyang called him again.

On the way to his office, the old comrade complained: "My phone is now assigned to you."

With a smile on his face, Lin Weimin stuffed a box of cigarettes that can only be bought in the Friendship Store into the pocket of the old comrade.

Comrade Lao Tan is relieved, it doesn't matter whether the old smoker smokes or not, all he wants is respect.

When I called back, it was indeed Tao Huimin.

Their theater troupe just arrived in Yanjing last night, and was arranged by CCTV to enter the Temple of Heaven Hotel.

Tao Huimin ran out during lunch time. She didn't even eat lunch, so she found a public phone on the street and called Lin Weimin.

"You go back to have lunch first. After I get off work in the evening, I will go to Tiantan Hotel to find you."

After finishing the phone call, Lin Weimin kept looking at his watch when he was about to get off work in the afternoon.

Yao Shuzhi noticed his abnormality carefully, "For the people, do you have an appointment?"

"Ah."

"Look at your state, girlfriend?"

Lin Weimin glanced at her unexpectedly, are all women so careful?

Seeing Lin Weimin's expression, Yao Shuzhi knew that she had guessed right, and she couldn't help wondering: "Isn't your girlfriend in Zhijiang?"

Before, everyone had a brief understanding of Lin Weimin's relationship, and everyone knew that his girlfriend was a Shaoxing opera actor from Zhijiang.

"The people from Zhijiang can't come to Yanjing?"

"Hey, come to Yanjing? You're a charming boy!"

"Anyone like Qu Xiaowei can hook Liu Haiyan to Yanjing, how can I be worse than him?"

Yao Shuzhi thought: Qu Xiaowei can't match you in other places, but when it comes to falling in love...

Yao Shuzhi's eyes couldn't help showing a bit of contempt, but then she thought that Weimin is now in love after all, so she can't look at people with old eyes.

Lin Weimin was keenly aware of the meaning in Yao Shuzhi's eyes, and really wanted to pooh her on the spot: dog's eyes look down on people!
He glanced at his watch. Just now, he was not looking at his watch to wait for get off work, but to calculate the time on Tao Huimin's side, and felt that it was almost time.

He stood up, "Sister Yao, stop talking, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

When Lin Weimin said this, he was tall and straight, exuding an air of elation.
