This doesn’t look like something that would come out of Wu Chunqin’s mouth!
If Chen Ru only has a strong personality, Wu Chunqin can definitely be said to be tough and strong - not many women can be as determined as Wu Chunqin. After being assigned to the factory, she worked hard to go to college through self-study. Before that, Wu Chunqin did not know how many rejections she had. The enthusiastic people who wanted to be her matchmakers, from the initial popularity to being said to be an old girl with a weird personality, the persuasion of friends and the incomprehension of her family could not stop Wu Chunqin from moving towards her goal.
When Wu Chunqin realized that she had worked hard enough, love naturally followed and she married Professor Shen from the same school.
If Wu Chunqin was still in the factory, no one would have introduced her to Professor Shen, but when Wu Chunqin went to college, she and Professor Shen knew each other right without any introduction!
Of course, the original intention of Wu Chunqin's struggle was not just to find an outstanding husband. The marriage with Professor Shen was more like a one-for-one gift from God after improving himself.
Chen Ru knew very well Wu Chunqin's struggle experience, so she was surprised by Wu Chunqin's answer.
"I thought--"
"Do you think I would persuade you to let Wen Ying continue to hold on?"
On the other end of the phone, Wu Chunqin sighed, "Wen Ying is different from us. To be realistic, we are just ordinary people. Even I am just an ordinary person who has a slightly better life. Due to my limited qualifications, It is impossible for me to achieve any great achievements academically, so I left college. This is a very helpless choice. I never accept my fate, but I must clearly understand my own abilities... Wen Ying is different, Wen Ying She is a gifted child, and we don’t even know how high her upper limit is!”
Wu Chunqin, a person who has achieved success through his own efforts, actually talked to Chen Ru about the "theory of talent".
Because in college, Wu Chunqin met too many big guys!
She once thought that she only went to a junior college in the college entrance examination because she didn't study hard enough and her IQ was not inferior to others.
Actually no.
People with truly high IQs have top-notch memory and understanding. They don’t need to stay up all night to study hard. Not to mention getting into prestigious schools, they won’t just get into a junior college—
Wu Chunqin thought that she entered college as a counterattack, and only after meeting many big shots did she get to know herself again.
Her academic qualifications can be improved, but she is really not one for research.
This is not to say that improving academic qualifications is useless. Years of persistence in studying have made Wu Chunqin completely transformed. But everyone has their own areas in which they are good at, so why bother struggling in areas that they are not good at? Wu Chunqin realized that he After finding no future in academia, I decided to change my path.
Wen Ying is different.
The New Concept Essay Contest receives tens of thousands of submissions every year. Wen Ying was able to stand out among them, enter the semi-finals and win the first prize. This is her talent.
How many publishing houses are there in the country and how many books are released every year? "Teen Idol" is able to outsell other works of the same period. This is talent!
Wu Chunqin fully recognized Wen Ying's talent in the field of literary creation.
Unlike ordinary people, Wen Ying is a literary genius.
Don’t geniuses need to work hard?
No.
Geniuses need to work harder!
Geniuses and ordinary people are not on the same track. The opponents of geniuses are other geniuses.
Genius not only requires hard work, but also needs to be carefully cared for. Before reaching the top of the mountain, there are too many external factors that will cause genius to die young.
That would be a pity.
In Chen Ru's silence, Wu Chunqin said her own thoughts: "What I said about resigning as a judge is not to ask Wen Ying to admit defeat, but to retreat in order to advance. She made a show of it first, so that I can hire someone else."
Help her argue. This essay competition has received too much attention, even better than the New Concept Essay Competition. Can Wen Ying bear such high attention and such great pressure by herself?"
Of course it’s good if the child is excellent.
But than excellence, physical and mental health is more important!
Wu Chunqin didn't want to see a genius die young, let alone see the daughter of an old classmate be harmed by the violence of public opinion.
Wen Ying is still so young, it's not that she can't afford to retire - this retirement is to accumulate strength for a more stunning appearance. If Wen Ying's novels published after "Teen Idol" can still sell well, those comments chasing Wen Ying and scolding her now
Everybody’s noses are so angry that grades are always the best weapon to fight back. Wu Chunqin wants to save Wen Ying from the limelight of public opinion and buy more time for Wen Ying to grow!
Wu Chunqin made this suggestion because he regarded Chen Ru as a true friend.
Chen Ru was not ignorant. After a long silence, Chen Ru's voice was filled with uncertainty:
"Wen Ying may not agree to resign..."
Everyone else is anxious for Wen Ying, but Wen Ying is not anxious herself.
I go to school as usual every day, go to the magazine after school to review manuscripts, and then be driven home by the magazine in the evening. I am picked up and dropped off by the magazine every day. The judges' treatment is not low at all!
It doesn't seem to be too affected.
It seems that those critics who called "fish against the current" have nothing to do with Wen Ying... Chen Ru had a headache, "Who do you think she looks like? She is too heartbroken. Is she really not angry, or is she keeping it all in her heart to prevent us from letting her go?"
figure it out?"
No matter what the situation was, Wen Ying's behavior was not normal.
Now it was Wu Chunqin's turn to be surprised.
"So, her mood is quite stable?"
Wu Chunqin thought that Wen Ying was already under heavy pressure, so Chen Ru would ask her for help.
As a result, Wen Ying did not!
Wu Chunqin immediately changed her tune: "Then don't resign. It's because I underestimated your daughter. A little girl can hold on, so what does it mean for us adults to admit defeat first!"
——Sister, that’s not what you said just now. You said you should retreat to advance.
However, Wu Chunqin has overturned the plan of "retreating to advance" and reassures Chen Ru that she will find more literary critics to support Wen Ying.
"There will be people who are willing to support Wen Ying. It's like a debate. If there are only opposing sides but no positive sides, the debate process will not be exciting!"
This principle is easy to understand.
If public opinion praises Wen Ying, then criticizing Wen Ying can attract attention.
Vice versa, when everyone is criticizing Wen Ying, if you can refute the opinions of those critics with reasonable evidence and firmly support Wen Ying, it will also attract attention!
All Wu Chunqin has to do is find influential critics through her husband Professor Shen’s connections!
"Chunqin, thank you, thank you so much."
"Why are you so polite?"
Wu Chunqin smiled on the other end of the phone: "To tell you the truth, apart from our friendship, I also really like Wen Ying. I fell in love with her the first time we met. There is an indescribable feeling of closeness."
Chen Ru exchanged greetings with Wu Chunqin for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Wu Chunqin promised to help, and Chen Ru was not so panicked. Among the three members of the family, Wen Ying was not panicked at first. Chen Ru had reinforcements, but Wen Dongrong was the only one who had no idea and seemed to explode at the first touch.
powder keg.
Wen Dongrong really wanted to arrest someone to scold him, but he had to take his image into consideration in his new unit.
The old enemy, Lao Li, has disappeared these days and doesn't even answer Wen Dongrong's calls, fearing that he will become Lao Wen's punching bag.
——Oh, Lao Li can't hold back anymore, it's not fun!
In this anxious atmosphere, Xie Qian returned from the "Magic City".
It turns out that Wen Ying looked calm, partly because she didn't care about getting angry with the old writer. Xie Qian suddenly went to the Magic City, and Wen Ying was worried!
I don’t know what dirty tricks Xie Jinghu has prepared to harm Xie Qian. Compared with Xie Qian’s safety, being scolded is nothing, and it won’t lose any weight. I think of the reprint of “Young Idol” and making good money by selling the book.
Much more, Wen Ying could even happily eat two more bowls of rice after reading those articles criticizing her!
The moment she saw Xie Qian in the classroom, Wen Ying's heart was still hanging.
"Is there nothing going on over there in the Magic City?"
There was a hint of fatigue on Xie Qian's face, and he shook his head after hearing this.
"Is everything okay? Are you lying to me? We have agreed not to hide anything from each other..."
"fine."
Xie Qian's words were concise and to the point, but Wen Ying could tell that his voice was a little hoarse.
"Is your throat uncomfortable?"
Xie Qian nodded slightly, "A little bit."
Wen Ying suddenly became anxious, "You have a cold?"
It doesn't look like it.
There is no nasal sound in his speech, and his face is not strange either.
"Too much to say."
Her voice became hoarse, like a clear mountain spring suddenly drying up. Wen Ying thought about the scene where Xie Qian went to Shanghai to deal with business and wasted so much time that her voice became hoarse. She quickly asked Xie Qian to stop talking to protect his voice.
After opening the package, the sweet scent of the throat lozenges with the flavor of traditional Chinese medicine penetrated Xie Qian's nose. Such a strange smell reminded Xie Qian of the snacks that Wen Ying had forcibly fed before. They all smelled the same and must be equally unpalatable.
.
In Wen Ying's expectant eyes, Xie Qian turned his head to the side, with resistance written all over his body:
"I feel better."
"No, you're not okay, your voice is still mute when you speak!"
Xie Qian turned around and looked at Wen Ying, seeming a little surprised.
He has always done whatever he says when he hears Ying, but now you can't understand his refusal?
Of course, no one likes taking medicine, but it is rare for Xie Qian to have "hateful" emotions written on his face, and Wen Ying can't help but be stunned.
After all, Xie Qian has always shown himself to be smart and precocious, and his behavior was a little more childish... The change in Wen Ying's expression was seen by Xie Qian. Before Wen Ying could reveal the truth, Xie Qian took a piece of cake to moisten his throat with disgust.
The candy dropped into his mouth.
It sure tastes terrible!
Xie Qian closed his mouth tightly and tried to ignore the taste in his mouth.
However, after enduring the strange smell, a bit of coolness flowed into his dry throat, and Xie Qian's symptoms were indeed relieved.
Even so, Xie Qian would never touch the remaining lozenges again!
Li Mengjiao came over with grievances, "I want to post an article on my blog, but Teacher Yuan doesn't allow me to update it. It's my own blog. I don't even have the freedom to publish articles?"
We have been contracted with Yuan Fenghui for so long, and Li Mengjiao always does what Yuan Fenghui says. One likes to worry about everything for artists, and the other doesn't like to worry about everything himself. Such two are a perfect match together!
So after working together for so long, Li Mengjiao has never opposed Yuan Fenghui, except this time.
Wen Ying was scolded by critics, Li Mengjiao was worried!
After all, she is a popular star, and Li Mengjiao's appeal is not small. As a popular star who promotes books on variety shows and can drive the sales of "Teen Idol", if she publicly stands up to support Wen Ying, the effect will definitely be not weak.
Yuan Fenghui disagreed.
Li Mengjiao was angry and aggrieved. If she didn't do anything, would she still be worthy of being Wen Ying's friend?!
