Chapter 16 One room alone
when!
The wall clock rang, it was already late at night at 1:30 in the morning.
The public house village in this area of Limu Tree is no longer as crowded during the day. Under the heavy night, there are only the occasional barking of dogs.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A gust of wind blew, and the unsupported glass window was blown to the wall.
Lin Jing, who had been writing hard in the living room, stopped writing, stood up, reached out and closed the glass window.
Hurry...
The rain started to rain again, which had just stopped for a while, and the size of beans hit the window, fast and urgent.
A few points were sprinkled on Lin Jing's face, and it was a little cool.
Walking alone on the street with an umbrella on a rainy day seems like a romantic and interesting thing.
Lin Jing in her previous life might like it, but now she hates it.
The south is already very humid, not to mention the Xiangjiang River near the sea. In addition, the rain has not stopped recently, either downpour or drizzle. It seems that a ball of water vapor can be caught in the air with just a little grab. Even the walls seem to be seeping water, and it is full of dampness everywhere.
What's worse is that as long as the joint of my father's right hand is in this continuous rainy weather, it will be red, swollen and painful.
Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!
He was filled with a low cough in his chest, just like now, because he couldn't sleep well due to joint pain. He couldn't sleep well at night and had to get up early during the day to go to work. The specific work was heavy, and if this continued for a long time, he would easily collapse.
Lin Jing was very worried when she saw it. She advised her not to work so hard, but she did not achieve any results.
In desperation, Lin Jing could only work harder and strive to make money that she could live a good life without her father working.
Now she contributes to two newspapers, "Ming Pao", "Oriental Daily", and "Ming Pao" is naturally "Kunlun", and "Oriental Daily" is the youth campus romance novel "Those Times I Can't Go Back".
The entire Xiangjiang River serialized three novels in two newspapers at the same time, with more than 30,000 words every day, which is indeed a bit shocking.
In fact, she now writes about 40,000 words a day, and most of her time is written by "Kunlun", and then squeezes out part of her time to write "Those Times I Can't Go Back".
It is not as fast as before. The main reason is that she has deleted and modified both novels to a certain extent, and the changes are quite large.
The core content of "Kunlun" remains unchanged, and then those deep imitation traces will be removed.
"The Times That Can't Go Back" is adapted from "The Times That Can't Go Back" and "The Three Gate".
"Those Youth Times I Can't Go Back" reads like a book written for the young self, yellowed photos, passing time, and faint memories. After reading it, people feel moved, as if the time I can't go back is the best time.
"Three Doors" is filled with a lot of cold humor and more ironic content than "The Young Times I Can't Go Back", which makes it feel very happy to read.
These two novels that are incompatible with each other, but if you read them carefully, you will find that their protagonists are surprisingly similar. They are calm, sharp, and unruly, a bit narrow-minded, a bit naive, and a bit cute.
Perhaps, youth is so boisterous and unruly similar.
By comparing the two, we deleted the content of adulthood, intercepted many more interesting stories, changed the time, place and background of the story, combined with our own primary and secondary school life, and finally magnified it into the mid-1970s when we entered Hong Kong.
After such a large amount of deletion and modification, "Those Times I Can't Go Back", which combines the advantages of the two novels, has become the book that is most in line with her identity and age.
Because it is no longer a fairy tale for adults - martial arts novels, it mainly tells stories that take place on campus and stories that take place in primary and secondary schools.
It is not incredible for a genius middle school student to write such youth campus romance novels.
In the eyes of many people, the novel written by Lin Jing is a bit like her reminiscing about her past study and life in primary and secondary schools.
However, in this way, she had to go in and out of the Tsuen Wan Library frequently to check relevant materials to avoid flaws. Her efficiency would inevitably be reduced a lot, and she would no longer be as smooth as before. She even had a bit of a self-inflicted effort.
But even so, with her work efficiency, it only takes more than a month to finish all these two novels. Moreover, these are serialized, as long as there are enough manuscripts to provide serialization every day, there is no need to submit the complete manuscript at once.
After writing these two novels, you can basically pay off all your debts, although there will be no remaining one.
So she couldn't just relax because even if she had paid off her debts, her family's life had not improved much.
People who live in low-rent housing, and low-rent housing in the Limushu area have recently been found to have problems with the main structure of the buildings. Several buildings have tilted, cracked and settled to varying degrees. Although they have not been verified by experts, the news of "dangerous houses" has been circulating.
What's more, even if it's not a dilapidated house, she still plans to move, so it's really inconvenient to live in this area.
Secondly, my father has to endure physical inconvenience and work hard for the 120 yuan dead salary every day.
In addition, there are many reasons that force her to cheer up and continue to struggle.
So she had to make plans in advance after writing these novels.
Writing novels is still too slow, and the labor intensity is very high, which is not enough for ordinary people to bear. That is, her physique suddenly improved and she finally managed to get over it. She planned to write as little as possible in the future. One piece a year is the most suitable one.
An explosion like the current intensive bombardment can easily cause readers to feel aesthetic fatigue. Although the styles of several novels she chose are very different, they are never a long-term solution.
Now her novels have become very famous in Xiangjiang, and some media have exaggeratedly putting the title of "genius girl" on her.
By the time the three serialized novels are completed and compiled and published, her "literary name" will be fully elevated to a new level, dispelling most of the doubts of "Lin Jinghei" and gaining a foothold in the novel world.
With enough "literary name", she can do some "transformation" things, such as writing scripts.
Her interest is not in "writing novels", but in film and television production, because this is her previous work and interests.
Besides, there are examples without reference in front of her: Ni Kuang was the same at the time. After he achieved success in writing novels, someone came to him to write scripts, and the scripts he wrote were pretty good and sold well. In the 1970s, he bid for 50,000 yuan per book, so he would pay first and then get the goods.
Lin Jing's head contains countless scripts of classic movies, including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Hollywood, European, action, literature, horror, etc. She is completely able to do it one hundred times and ten thousand times better than Ni Kuang.
"Ajing, I haven't slept yet, it's almost two o'clock." While Lin Jing was thinking about planning for the future, Lin Liwei got up at some point.
"I'm thinking about something and going to bed soon." When she worked at night, in order not to affect her younger brother and sister's rest, she usually stayed in the living room with a small desk lamp bought from the second-hand market. Under the dim light, she was sitting on the dining table.
"Go to go to bed quickly. If you have something to do during the day, staying up late will hurt your body. You are still young and don't know how good you stay up late, all your problems will come out when you get old." Lin Liwei said, gently rubbing the joints of the arm of his right hand with his left hand.
"Well, I know, are your hands better?" Lin Jing nodded and said.
"An old problem, it's not so easy to get better. When the weather improves, it will naturally not hurt. Now apply some medicinal wine to soothe. Go to bed quickly, stop talking, and it's going to dawn." Lin Liwei found that his daughter had changed the subject without realizing it, and quickly brought it back.
"Okay, I'll go to bed now." Lin Jing knew that it would be impossible not to go to bed again, so she answered and turned off the desk lamp and went back to the room with the manuscript.
"Dad knows that you are very sensible and capable, and can make money to support your family, but Dad can't do nothing, just like those lazy Lai Han outside, right?" After Lin Jing returned to the room, Lin Liwei said in a voice that only he could hear.
