Chapter 97 Half Alumni
"Science Fiction World" in March was still delayed for more than a week, but because it was delayed for so long last month, readers' reaction was not so strong this time, and many people had even mentally put "Science Fiction World" on sale.
The date has been pushed to the middle of the month.
After all, as someone said: Chinese people always like to compromise. For example, if you say that this room is too dark and a window must be opened here, no one will allow it. But if you advocate removing the roof,
They will come to reconcile and be willing to open the window.
This is the mentality of readers at this time.
The response to the last issue of "Closed Loop" was very good, and many readers wrote to the magazine to express their love for the novel.
And because the film and television adaptation rights of "One Day" were purchased by an American director, many readers are also asking whether "Closed Loop" will also be adapted into a movie.
In addition, some readers are asking whether the magazine will help domestic TV stations broadcast the movie after it is released...
The biggest highlight of "Science Fiction World" in March, in addition to the follow-up part of "Second World", is the interview column about writer Yu Dong.
This time the magazine specially put "Yu Dong's Interview Column" on the cover so that readers can immediately lock in the spot.
"Lao Wang, Xiaopang, come and take a look, there is an interview in the new issue of "Science Fiction World"."
Qu Aiguo returned to the dormitory excitedly with the magazine. When he saw Li Huixiang and Wang Jin lying on the bed, they immediately pulled them up.
Wang Kuo tilted his head and looked over, "What's this? Didn't Teacher Yu appear in the "Yangtze Evening News" before? Comrade Patriot, you really like to make a fuss. Is it rare for someone who can publish a novel in "Harvest"?
Will you write a column in Science Fiction World?"
Qu Aiguo glanced at Wang Kuo and said, "I don't like listening to you kid. I said you don't like Brother Dong writing science fiction novels so much? Didn't you say before that domestic science fiction novels can't go abroad? Now "One Day" is going to be
It’s been made into a movie, and you’re still not convinced, right?”
Wang Kuo pursed his lips and said, "I still think there is some luck involved. Teacher Yu would be better off pursuing a purely literary path."
"That's right." Qu Aiguo rolled his eyes, then looked at Wang Jin and Li Huixiang with a smile, "Come, let's see what Brother Dong said in his interview."
"Well, let me see the question...Yu Dong, did you have any other science fiction works before "One Day"?"
…
"Yu Dong, did you have any other science fiction works before "One Day"?" At the door of Jinling Middle School, Zhu Fu first read the question on the column, and then read Yu Dong's answer later: ""One Day" is the first article I published publicly.
Science fiction."
Fang Tao was reading "The Second World" when he heard Zhu Fu read the column first and said, "This is really the first article. I really can't tell."
Zhu Fu first smiled and said: "Brother Tao, what you can't see is still behind."
"What?" Fang Tao asked confused.
"Look at the next few questions and answers. Yu Dong graduated from Yanjing Normal University and now teaches in Jinling."
"Jinling?" Fang Tao was stunned, and then asked quickly: "Which school are you in, university or something?"
"I didn't say." Zhu Fu shook his head first, and then Fang Tao raised his eyebrows, "Brother Tao, do you think Yu Dong will be a teacher in our school? Maybe we searched for him thousands of times, and then looked back, then
But he is in the teacher’s office.”
Fang Tao said angrily: "Is there any teacher named Yu Dong in our school?"
"Perhaps Yu Dong is a pen name..." Zhu Fu thought for a moment and thought it was unlikely, then continued to read the next question, "Let's look at the next... Oh my god, look at the summary at the end, the editor also said
He published an article in "Zhongshan" and wrote about... mending the sky!"
Zhu Fuxian shouted the last two words, and his voice was so loud that Fang Tao's ears next to him were hit by him.
"What did you say, what did you write?" Fang Tao asked, rubbing his ears.
"Bu Tian, is Bu Tian. Teacher Zheng mentioned this novel last time. We also bought that issue of "Zhongshan", but we didn't pay attention to the author's name at the time. We didn't expect it to be Yu Dong."
Zhu Fu said this first, and Fang Tao also remembered that he had read such a novel in "Zhongshan" before. However, he didn't pay much attention to the author's name at that time. Maybe he just glanced at it and realized that he was not a famous writer, so he didn't read it.
In my heart.
But I didn't expect that "Zhongshan" and "Science Fiction World" would have such a connection.
Fang Tao and Zhu Fuxian both found it quite surprising. After all, apart from this one in the east, they had never heard of anyone who engaged in pure literature and wrote science fiction novels.
But at the same time, they also felt happy. It seemed that science fiction was not as bad as others said.
…
Yu Dong and Su Tong set off from Jinling after dinner on the 13th. The ride was quite fast, but it was already noon the next day when they arrived in Yanjing.
Both of them were familiar with Yanjing, but someone still came to pick him up.
According to Su Tong, among several friends, only Mo Yan is living a relatively easy life now, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to pick him up.
When Yu Dong met Mo Yan, the future Nobel Prize winner in literature was squatting on the roadside smoking. Mo Yan was short, slightly chubby, and had a simple and honest face.
When he smoked, he became even more dazed. He didn't react until Yi Dong and Su Tong walked up to him.
"You're here." Mo Yan's eyes were small and his eyebrows were short. When he spoke, the smile spread across his face, and his eyes were squeezed by the smile and became smaller.
Su Tong handed him a cigarette and introduced him: "This is my junior brother, Yu Dong."
Mo Yan shook hands with Yu Dong again, "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
Su Tong smiled and lit the cigarette, and then said: "Speaking of which, the three of us are also alumni."
"Count it half." Mo Yan said with a smile: "I don't dare to say that I am your alumnus outside, because I am afraid that people will say that I am climbing a high tree."
When Yu Dong heard the two of them joking, he smiled and shook his head. In fact, they and Mo Yan can be regarded as half alumni. In 1988, the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles commissioned the graduate class of Yan Normal University to train a master's degree in literature and art, because the Lu Xun School of Literature
There is no master's degree awarding authority.
In a sense, it is like borrowing a chicken to lay eggs.
But later, after Mo Yan won the award, Yanjing Normal University got some credit and got the prefix of Yanjing Normal University in front of the Lu Xun College of Literature.
Many students in Mo Yan's class later became famous, such as Yu Hua, Yan Geling, Chi Zijian, Liu Zhenyun...
When they were studying part-time at Yanjing Normal University, Yu Dong was still studying at the school. He should have met Mo Yan and the others, but they didn't know each other at the time, so they didn't have much impression.
Moreover, the person who took Mo Yan and the others at that time was Professor Tong Qingbing, who had nothing to do with Yu Dong.
