1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 235 Teacher Lin Can't Hold It Anymore

On the Yenching University campus in the 80s, poets were rampant, there were always posters of poetry club activities on the school bulletin board, and poetry recitations were held at lunch and dinner time on the campus loudspeakers...

When any writer comes to campus, the upsurge that can be caused cannot be compared with the arrival of poets.

But the commotion caused by Lin Weimin's arrival was very different. There were a lot of normal university students who came that day, and a lot of students from other schools also came.

The content of Lin Weimin's speech was very dry, even boring, and many people didn't even understand it, but it did not prevent everyone from spreading the content of this speech.

The more obscure it is, the more helpful it is for chatting to brag about yourself.

Especially after Zhang Jianjun and other students published the content of Lin Weimin's speech that day on the "Chuhang" founded by the Chinese Department of Yanjing Normal University, it triggered a lot of "Unnamed Lake" at Yanjing University, "Tsinghua Garden" by Mizuki, etc. The reprinting of the publications of the national student union and the T committee gradually caused a far-reaching influence in the various colleges and universities in Yenching.

The concept of avant-garde literature is penetrating into the various campuses of Yenching little by little.

In this era when college students are still the favored ones, the new things that college students pursue can easily become social trends. Taking advantage of this trend, avant-garde literature is slowly infiltrating more and more literature lovers.

"It's okay for the people, this speech is really not in vain." In the office, Yao Shuzhi laughed.

Lin Weimin was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"I'll show you this!"

Yao Shuzhi took out a printed booklet, the paper was rough and the type was blurred.

"New Leaf" is a student publication sponsored by the Literary Society of Liaodong Normal University, founded in 1979.

The most influential part of this publication is its poetry issue published in the eighth issue last year. When it is mentioned in later generations, Misty Poems will inevitably be mentioned. in this issue of the journal.

At the beginning, it aroused great repercussions and attention among colleges and universities across the country. Later, the revised draft was published by "Contemporary Literature and Art Thought", which caused a huge influence nationwide.

"New Leaf" and Liaodong Normal University, which hosted "New Leaf", became famous among college students all over the country.

"New Leaf" has a great reputation, so Lin Weimin has heard of it. Seeing Yao Shuzhi take out this booklet, Lin Weimin couldn't help asking curiously: "Where did you get this thing?"

"My sister got it. They are well-informed about the college students."

Yao Shuzhi opened "New Leaf" as she spoke, pointed to the article on it and said, "Look, what is this?"

Lin Weimin took a closer look, "How to Understand 'Avant-Garde Literature'——Record of Teacher Lin Weimin's Speech at Yan Normal University".

"Is this the article in Yenching Normal University's "First Flight"?"

When several students were invited to dinner on the day of the speech, Zhang Jianjun and others proposed to publish the content of Lin Weimin's speech in a publication sponsored by their Chinese Department Student Union, and Lin Weimin readily agreed.

It's just that he didn't expect to see this article in a university publication as far away as Liaodong.

"That's why I said that your speech was not in vain. Even the school in Liaodong sent you this speech."

Yao Shuzhi looked at Lin Weimin with admiration in his eyes, this kid is really capable of tossing around.

First, it was the first issue of this year to promote newcomers, new works and new styles, then the "Literary News" published a lot of comments, and finally went to the university campus to stir up a trend.

After this operation, literature lovers across the country know the name of "pioneering literature", and even the first issue of "Contemporary" and many authors on it have followed suit.

Several operations complement each other, and the influence gained is extremely huge.

During this period, "Contemporary" has become a "literary holy place" in the minds of college students.

Lin Weimin read the article on "New Leaf", and a light smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After tossing and tossing for so long, his thoughts were finally not in vain.

After admiring the contents of "New Leaf", Lin Weimin returned the publication to Yao Shuzhi and continued to write letters to Mo Yan.

The response to the first issue of "Contemporary" in 83 was extremely huge. Mo Yan published two works on it, which was consistent with the treatment received by Ma Yuan and Yu Hua, two pioneers of literature. Feedback and reviews are much worse.

Some vitriolic letters from readers compared his novels to "the scent of company tabloid ink". This evaluation hurt Mo Yan so much that he began to write to Lin Weimin to express his feelings.

Young people just can't afford it.

I can't bear to scold a few words. Has Mr. Lin received less scolding in the past two years?
Just the review article in the "Literary News" some time ago has aroused criticism from at least dozens of newspapers, magazines and other media across the country. Many critics and readers even made phone calls and wrote letters to scold him.

Mr. Lin should still eat and drink. After experiencing the baptism of Internet trolls in later generations, is this little saliva a problem?
"Instead of being so self-pitying now, it's better to put all your energy on creation. Do you have any ideas for new works? If you don't have any ideas, you can write to me to discuss them, and you must not put your mind on external evaluations and discussions..."

Lin Weimin is still the same old way, he first encourages and then criticizes, and then asks for new works to put pressure on, a set of operations is smooth and smooth.

After answering Mo Yan's letter, he took the time to reply to Lu Yao's letter. Lu Yao's letter told him that the movie "Life" had started. Lin Weimin's letter naturally urged Lu Yao's new work.

After a busy morning, Lin Weimin stood in front of the window to move his body. Liu Yin asked, "Weimin, the group of college student volunteers in the club should be arriving soon? It's been almost a month."

"It will arrive tomorrow." Lin Weimin replied.

Liu Yin said happily: "At last I can relax a little bit."

The colleagues in the office nodded with lingering fear. With the addition of new forces, even if they just help open letters and register manuscripts, it will reduce the burden for them!
"If things go on like this, our editorial department will have to add more imports in the second half of the year, right?" Yao Shuzhi sighed.

"If we don't enter people, we will ask Lao Meng to respond. For the people, you have to speak out for us."

"no problem!"

Lin Weimin is not an iron man either. In the past few months, the workload of the editorial department has been increasing due to his coquettish operations. He can't handle it without adding more people.

In the second half of the year, he plans to plan another series of books. The editorial department is so busy now that if there is no new force to join, it may be too busy.

After getting off work in the evening, the work at hand was finally finished. Lin Weimin came to Qu Xiaowei's house on a motorcycle. Last month, Liu Haiyan gave birth to a fat boy who weighed six pounds.

Lin Weimin was a bit busy at the time of the full moon wine two days ago, so he didn't come over, so he came here specially today to have a look.

At this time, Liu Haiyan was already out of confinement, her figure was a little fat, and she was cooking for Qu Xiaowei.

"I said you boy, Haiyan is just out of confinement, so you don't know how to help her." Lin Weimin said.

Qu Xiaowei said unhappily, "I just finished changing the baby's diaper, okay?"

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to be a godfather, and the child won't come for a full moon?"

"Godfather is busy!"

Qu Xiaowei felt a little uncomfortable listening, "Damn, why do you feel that you have been taken advantage of by your kid? Forget it, you should stop being this godfather."

"You think I'm rare?"

After teasing a few words, Lin Weimin took out a foreign exchange certificate of 50 yuan from his pocket.

"I didn't drink the full moon wine, and I didn't buy anything for me. It's better to give me more money. You two can buy whatever you want for your child."

Qu Xiaowei said with a smile: "It's still a baby, his godfather is generous!"

Lin Weimin scolded: "If you have milk, you are a mother!"

Qu Xiaowei and his wife left Lin Weimin to eat at home, and he was not polite, sitting on the sofa, while Qu Xiaowei was watching the children and Liu Haiyan was cooking, he picked up a magazine on the sofa on the table to read.

Qu Xiaowei said: "For the sake of the people, you read that issue of "Yanjing Literature"."

"What's wrong?" Lin Weimin flipped through the magazine in his hand, the third issue of "Yanjing Literature" in 1983. He didn't find anything unusual, and he didn't see the names of acquaintances.

"Jia Pingwa posted a novel called "Liu Guanren" on it."

Lin Weimin looked at the catalog, "I see it."

Qu Xiaowei's tone was full of emotion, "Do you still remember when you were in the Institute of Literature?"

Lin Weimin followed Qu Xiaowei's words, recalling the life of the Institute of Literature in his mind.

"Didn't we talk about it once when we were chatting? At that time, we were recommended by various publications when we went to the Institute of Literature. Everyone wanted to squeeze their heads in, but some people dismissed it.

Didn't Jia Pingwa not come?He had already published a book at that time, everyone said it was enviable! "

Lin Weimin recalled that chat in the cafeteria in his mind, and it really happened.

"At that time, you didn't even have a novella, and people had already published books at a young age. It's only been a few years, and your kid's novels have been published, published, and adapted one after another. Look at him again. , that's what happened!"

At this time, Liu Haiyan came over with a dish, and said sarcastically: "Those who don't know think it's your novels published one after another! You are a literature lover now, do you have the right to look down on others?"

Qu Xiaowei was not angry when she taunted her.

"Isn't this talking about the comparison between then and now? The changes for the people are really great!"

While talking, the food was served on the table.

Today Lin Weimin and Qu Xiaowei didn't drink, and Qu Xiaowei had to take care of the children at night, so if he drank, he was afraid of falling asleep too much.

During the meal, Liu Haiyan asked Lin Weimin, "Where is your girlfriend now?"

"It's a performance in Shanghai."

Liu Haiyan sighed: "No wonder you two can become good friends, you have to find a girlfriend so far away."

When she said this, she was naturally referring to her husband Qu Xiaowei and Lin Weimin. Qu Xiaowei and her developed from pen pals to lovers, and it took more than a year in different places to cultivate.

Lin Weimin was even more ruthless. He met on business trips and often went to other places to perform, so it was inconvenient to write letters.

Qu Xiaowei smiled cheaply, "You have to wait, kid."

What he laughed at was not the distance, but the age.

Liu Haiyan also smiled and said, "I was surprised by what Shuzhi said. When are you going to get married?"

Lin Weimin looked indifferent, "There's no need to be anxious, we are both so young, unlike Xiaowei."

Lin Weimin's counterattack was very sharp, and Qu Xiaowei had a constipated expression on his face.

He was 27 when he went to the Institute of Literature, and he is 23 this year. Lin Weimin is only 26 this year, and even if he waits another three years, he will only be [-]. He is one year younger than Qu Xiaowei back then.

After eating and teasing the children for a while, Lin Weimin left Qu Xiaowei's house.

Two days later, Lin Weimin received a call from Wang Feng, director of CCTV, saying that the first draft of the script of "Latent" had been released, and he wanted to invite him to take a look.

We made an appointment to meet at the broadcasting compound, and Lin Weimin made time to go the next day.

The meeting was in Wang Feng's office. In addition to Ren Hao, who was recruited by Wang Feng from Qindao TV Station to CCTV, there was also Tang Peilin, a screenwriter invited by Wang Feng from Guizhou.

Speaking of Tang Peilin, many people are not familiar with it.But when it comes to his masterpiece, many people should be familiar with it-"Eighteen Years in the Enemy Camp", the first domestic feature-length TV series, is also a spy war theme.

It can be said that Wang Feng invited him to bring out the best in each other.

Because of Lin Weimin's strict requirements for the script, several meetings have been held before. This time, several people met again. The first draft script that Tang Peilin took out made Lin Weimin nod frequently, and he put forward some more detailed handling suggestions. adoption.

After the brief meeting, Ren Hao and Tang Peilin left, but Wang Feng left Lin Weimin behind.

"Ms. Lin, I actually asked you to come here today, and there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"what's up?"

"We CCTV is going to make "Dream of Red Mansions" into a TV series. I wonder if you are interested?"

Lin Weimin's expression was surprised when he heard this. The news that CCTV is going to put "Dream of Red Mansions" on the TV screen has been spread for several years. He actually invited himself to participate in "Dream of Red Mansions".

"Wang Tai was joking. My understanding of "Dream of Red Mansions" is at the level of elementary school students. How could I participate in such a huge production!"

Wang Fengdao: "I know you are busy with work, and you still have to write. How about being a consultant for our "Dream of Red Mansions" crew?"

"This..." Lin Weimin hesitated.

He is indeed very busy, he has to be busy with the work of "Contemporary" and writing, and occasionally takes time to participate in some social activities.

But this is a consultant for the crew of "A Dream of Red Mansions"!
It's really not Lin Weimin's vanity, it's really that the behind-the-scenes advisory team of CCTV's version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is too luxurious, just a few names, Shen Congwen, Qi Gong, Zhou Yang, are all names of this level, including Lin Weimin's current teacher Mr. Wan is also on the list of advisors.

Wang Feng invited himself to be a consultant for "Dream of Red Mansions", no matter how it sounds, it feels a bit dreamy!
"Wang Tai, I'm still saying the same thing. My personal understanding of "Dream of Red Mansions" is very shallow, and I'm afraid I can't help you much." Lin Weimin resisted the huge temptation and refused.

"Our consultants don't necessarily have to be masters of Hongxue. You have a solid foundation in drama creation, and you can provide us with good advice on the handling of the plot. I forgot to tell you that Mr. Wan is also in the scope of our invitation. , you two teachers and students are the consultants of our "Dream of Red Mansions" crew, and it is a good story to spread!"

Lin Weimin thought about it following Wang Feng's words.

Damn, the temptation is too great, Teacher Lin can't hold it anymore.

　The third one arrives at noon.
