1980 My Literary Era.

Chapter 545

It has been late May since "China Youth Daily" published the college students' letters to TZY launched the Chinese Youth Volunteer Action.

In addition to the extensive and enthusiastic response among college students, "No One Can Be Less" has a huge influence among the entire readership.

Compared with Lin Weimin's previous novels with heavy writing and unique style, the style of "Not One Less" is simple and unpretentious. Many readers feel a little uncomfortable when they first read it, but most of them will feel comfortable after reading the whole story. Feel it in your heart.

This phenomenon is also the place where Lin Weimin has been criticized the most by the critics. This novel is suspected of being deliberately sensational.

In all fairness, Lin Weimin did have a little selfishness when he wrote the novel. He wrote this novel in the hope that the name of "Project Hope" would become more popular among the people. Development is critical.

Lin Weimin never imagined that thousands of aspiring college students were unexpectedly encouraged to devote themselves to education in poverty-stricken areas. This trend also boosted the influence of "No One Less" after its publication.

And Lin Weimin's original goal was successfully achieved under this unexpected trend.

"Should college students go to poverty-stricken areas to support education" has gradually become a national discussion.

Against this background, the fourth issue of "Contemporary" published "No One Less", sold more than 260 million copies within one and a half months, and the sales volume is still growing at a high rate of tens of thousands of copies per day.

No one knows where the sales end of this issue will stop, but everyone knows that as long as this wave of discussions does not end, the sales of the fourth issue of "Contemporary" will continue to move towards a higher position.

The more sales, the more readers have read it, and the greater the influence of the novel.

In this way, Lin Weimin's personal affairs in his novels have gradually become popular among hundreds of millions of readers across the country.

"Hey, Weimin, you have helped us a lot this time!"

In the evening, Zheng Guo brought his wife and children to Lin Weimin's house to have a meal, and when he saw Lin Weimin, he smiled.

"Is the change so obvious?" Lin Weimin asked.

"It's so obvious!" Zheng Guo said excitedly, "Did you know that in the month since "Not One Less" was published, the amount of donations accepted by our foundation exceeded 500 million! That's 500 million, we The foundation may not have received so many donations in half a year!"

Zheng Guo's face was full of exclamation, "I really didn't expect that your novel could have such a big influence."

Lin Weimin has been in the domestic literary world for so many years, and every time his work is published, it can arouse great attention and discussion, but the difference of "Not One Less" this time is that this novel is deliberately written by Lin Weimin, in order to be able to The name of the Help Foundation and Project Hope lives on.

Zheng Guo was amazed not only by Lin Weimin's outstanding ability in literary creation, but also by his strong appeal to readers.

"That is to say, everyone's enthusiasm is higher at the beginning, and it still depends on the long-term changes." Lin Weimin said.

Zheng Guo nodded and said, "That's true."

"However, there is a long-term change that can already be seen." Zheng Guodao.

"What long-term changes?"

"I hope there will be no shortage of teachers in elementary schools in the future!" Zheng Guo laughed.

"No One Less" was published for more than a month, and the enthusiasm of young students to devote themselves to education was extremely high. TZY took advantage of the situation to launch the Chinese Youth Volunteer Action, which aroused enthusiastic responses from countless aspiring students, and tens of thousands of applicants.

The teacher resources of Hope Primary School have always been a long-standing problem plaguing the Foundation.

First of all, the first problem is the teaching ability of private teachers. Many of these private teachers have graduated from junior high school or even primary school, and their teaching level is relatively low.

The second problem is that people cannot be retained. In recent years of reform and opening up, more and more people from rural areas have gone to cities to work.Private teachers who teach in rural primary schools are generally not paid well, and they are often in arrears of wages. There are better ways to make money. Who wants to be a poor private teacher?

Well now, thanks to the China Youth Volunteer Action’s teaching activities, thousands of college students devote themselves to education in poverty-stricken areas every year. These students are both knowledgeable and passionate, and they will definitely change things including Hope Primary School. The teaching appearance of many rural primary schools.

"Indeed, I didn't expect this either." Lin Weimin laughed.

Whether he is worried or not, from the general direction, it is a good thing that so many students can go to poor areas to become teachers.

"One more thing, have you heard?" Zheng Guo asked mysteriously.

"what?"

"TZY and the Ministry of Education plan to hold a work seminar for you."

Lin Weimin was surprised, "Who did you listen to?"

"Nonsense, who else can I listen to? The head of our foundation is the leader of Tuantuan!"

Lin Weimin slapped his head, "Hey, I forgot!"

He added: "That's not necessary."

Zheng Guo was happier than his own when talking about this matter, with a smile all over his face, "You don't care if it is necessary, the leader said to do it, how dare you stop it?"

Of course, Lin Weimin would not be so stupid as to stop others from holding a work seminar. To put it bluntly, this matter is the recognition of the work and himself by the above, which has a considerable blessing effect on him and the work.

Less than a week after Zheng Guo finished speaking, when the "College Students Supporting Education" activity of the China Youth Volunteer Action was in full swing, Tuantuan and the Ministry of Education issued a notice to hold a seminar on the work "No One Less".

In March, "Contemporary" held a work seminar for "White Deer Plain", and the specifications of the seminar should be regarded as top-notch in the literary world.

The seminar specifications of the works of "Not One Less" are also top-notch, but the seminar styles of the two works are different.

The work seminar of "White Deer Plain" is mainly composed of people from the literary world, while the participants of the work seminar of "Not One Less" are mostly official personnel. Even the people in the literary circle who attended are all with official status .

The leader of TZY presided over the seminar, and the leaders of the publishing department on Lin Weimin's line also came, including Zheng Guo's father, who was in charge of the education department, also attended.

A work seminar was attended by top leaders of several departments. As a party involved in the seminar, Lin Weimin became the envy of many participants.

The atmosphere of seminars on works with official participation is much duller than that of seminars dominated by people from the literary world. Everyone’s speeches are not only formal, but also dull.

Lin Weimin couldn't figure out how this group of people could still talk like this for half an hour.

The seminar on "No One Less" will last for one day, and Lin Weimin couldn't hold on in just one morning.

After lunch and a break, the seminar just started in the afternoon, and Lin Weimin planned to take a sneaky account, not wanting the deputy minister in charge of education to come to the conference room suddenly.

"Just now I was participating in an event next door. I heard that you are holding a seminar on "No One Less", so I came to have a look. Don't be under pressure. I just read this novel some time ago, and it's time for you to hold it today. Seminar, do you mind if I say a few words?" the Deputy Prime Minister asked with a smile.

Everyone spontaneously burst into warm applause.

"Thank you for your support." The deputy prime minister waved his hands, and said in a deep thought: "This novel by Comrade Weimin can be said to truly and accurately show the education status of most of the poor areas in our country. As a member of the D , when I saw this novel, my inner feelings were extremely complicated..."

"Our country's reform and opening up has just started, and there are many difficulties to face, and the education industry is still the same. I am very happy to have such a work that reflects the current situation of education in the vast poverty-stricken areas, and let comrades in our government realize To our lack of work..."

"What makes me even more happy is the positive guiding role played by this novel. A few days ago, TZY launched a youth volunteer activity to guide aspiring young people to support education in poverty-stricken areas, which is very good."

"It's not scary to have work deficiencies. As long as we have the determination and action to improve, and persist in the belief of serving the people, we will always do well one day."

After the Deputy Prime Minister finished speaking, the applause broke out again.

The Deputy Prime Minister smiled and said: "That's all I said. I would like to say one more thing. I am very grateful to Comrade Weimin for writing such a good work that is close to reality and positive. I hope you can make persistent efforts in the future and continue to write such inspiring works. Heart-warming and uplifting work!"

According to official practice, Lin Weimin must make a statement at this time. Du Shu, who was sitting next to Lin Weimin, poked Lin Weimin from the bottom.

Lin Weimin gave Du Shu a look of "I understand", and said to the Deputy Prime Minister: "Thank you for the affirmation from the leader, I will definitely make persistent efforts in the future."

Du Shu nodded in satisfaction, and the deputy prime minister also smiled.

"but……"

Lin Weimin's words did not end as expected, but came a turning point, and everyone's eyes focused on him again.

"A good work must be written so that people can see it. Piracy is rampant in the book market now, and the sales volume is more than ten times higher than that of our formally published works. If it continues to develop like this, I am very worried about the domestic publishing industry.

What's more, these pirated booksellers dared to do impostors.Some time ago, people around me found a book on the bookstall called "Hunting II", the author Lin Weiminxin..."

When Lin Weimin said this, everyone laughed and the atmosphere relaxed.

"It sounds absurd to everyone, but you should understand that this kind of illegal behavior has harmed us writers and the publishing industry. If things go on like this, it will damage the overall environment and future development of our domestic publishing industry."

When Lin Weimin was speaking, he didn't notice Du Shu's murderous eyes.

After Lin Weimin finished speaking, the Deputy Prime Minister nodded slightly, "Comrade Weimin is right. This issue really needs to be taken seriously. Our publishing department must pay attention to this issue. The issue of rectifying piracy is not a matter of one department. This matter needs to be multi-departmental." Unity is what works.”

Du Shu immediately said: "Yes, we have also noticed this problem, and our Publishing Department is also contacting brothers to prepare for joint operations."

The Deputy Prime Minister nodded, greeted everyone present, and left.
