There is only enough time to love one person in a lifetime
The locks in the past looked good too
The key is beautiful and stylish
If you lock it, people will understand
…
Su Ai is a man, and he is an old man. The new poem made readers speculate like this.
Of course he is a boy, otherwise the first sentence at the beginning would not be about boyhood, but girlhood.
As for why he is an old man, you will know after reading the following content. Cars and horses are slow to send mails, and he must be an old man if he even has a horse.
However, some people say that this conclusion is not credible. After all, this is writing a poem, not a diary. What is written above may not be the author’s personal experience. Besides, who says that a boy must be a boy? A boy can also be a girl.
.
As for the horse, it is very likely that it is an image proposed by the author. Otherwise, the author must be at least 80 or 90 years old this year, or even more, because horses as a means of transportation only existed in the north in the 1950s.
And horses were not the main means of transportation at that time.
Zhang Zhong saw the readers’ discussion and found it quite interesting. In fact, the original author Mu Xin had little or no contact with horses when he was a child, let alone horses as a means of transportation. The horse in this poem only represents an image.
.And when Mu Xin was a child, the locks and keys hanging in every house were really not as beautiful as they are now. Maybe when he wrote, he was thinking about recalling a more distant era.
Fang Qing from Harvest Literature just called and said that Wang Kewang, the editor-in-chief of "Poetry", was very interested in this poem and asked him if he would like to let them reprint it.
Zhang Zhong expressed no objection to this. Fang Qing then asked Zhang Zhong circumventively whether he had any intention of publishing new works on Harvest Literature recently. Zhang Zhong did not answer her directly and only told her that he was very busy recently.
As for what he is busy with, Fang Qing can probably guess it. After all, there has been a lot of news about Zhang Zhong on the Internet recently. In addition to the new book "A Murder Case that was Publicized in advance", the Nebula Award Ceremony will also be held soon.
However, Zhang Zhong’s busyness does not refer to these. His recent work focus is still on his new book "Can Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"
As for the Nebula Awards, things will get really busy in a few days. The awards ceremony will be held at 7pm on June 7th, US time, so he has to start rushing to the United States at least on June 5th, China time.
"Dad, look at my painting."
Zhang Zhong was watching the news on the Internet in his study, when Pengpeng suddenly ran in holding a painting.
Looking at the painting held in his daughter's hand, Zhang Zhong asked in surprise, "Did you paint this?"
He was really surprised. The painting in Pengpeng's hand was completely different from the painting she had painted before. It looked quite interesting. It was a picture of moonlight, with rippling water and shadows of trees under the moon.
"She painted it." Xu Yuhan, who was following behind, said with a smile.
Zhang Zhong took the painting and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at it, the better he felt. It was not painted with colored pens, but was painted directly with pigment. It looked very three-dimensional and the color levels were very clear.
"Dad, I must be awesome." Pengpeng said with a raised face.
But he was also very surprised. He had just seen Peng Peng's paintings yesterday, and they were not at this level at all. How could he have made such obvious progress in just one day? He looked at Xu Yuhan, knowing that the answer to this question must be with her.
Xu Yuhan touched Pengpeng's head and said with a smile, "Let's finish showing off and go back to practice."
Pengpeng nodded enthusiastically, "Yeah."
After Pengpeng left, looking at Zhang Zhong's doubtful face, Xu Yuhan smiled and said, "This painting looks amazing, but it's actually very simple to paint. You don't even need to adjust the colors. You just paint according to the pattern. If you are more careful,
, you can paint like this even if you paint with me for two days.”
"Really? Is there such a quick fix?"
"Yes, but this painting can't fool professionals, it's just for fun. Pengpeng is tired from practicing basic skills these days, I will give her some confidence."
Zhang nodded and said, "Well, that's also a way, but you have to be careful not to let her get greedy for this quick fix."
"Don't worry about this. She is content with looking at this painting right now. In a few days, she won't be able to stand it anymore. Your girl is much more professional than you now."
"This is called the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead." Zhang Chong said with a smile.
"Then you can't move forward... Hey, you've also seen this poem." Xu Yuhan noticed the piece of paper written on Zhang Zhong's desk. It was "Once Upon a Time Slow" that was written on it. "This poem
It’s been quite popular in the circle of friends these past two days.”
"Well, this poem is quite good."
"If you can say something right, that proves that the poem is really good. You know, some people compare you with this Su Ai. Although he doesn't have many works, they are all fine works. He is only inferior to you in terms of quantity.
Yes. But I don’t think we can compare. After all, your styles are completely different. Of course, I don’t know much about traditional literature either.”
"There's nothing to compare. This kind of thing is inherently different..." Zhang Zhongzheng said when his cell phone rang, "I'll answer the call."
Xu Yuhan smiled and said, "You take it, I'll go watch Pengpeng draw."
It's Chen Qing calling.
"Boss, the negotiations with TEDA were not successful."
“Have any objections to the price?”
"They said they were dissatisfied with the price, but I think they deliberately didn't want to sell the land. They had no intention of negotiating at all. Instead, they offered a completely impossible price and didn't offer a counter-offer." Chen Qing
said.
Zhang Zhong frowned and said, "That's strange. They, TEDA, are in the real estate business. They took a piece of land and never developed it. Now someone has taken it over and the price they gave is very good. Why don't they even have the intention to talk? Have you found out the reason?
What?"
"I heard that he is related to TEDA's son Zhao Jin, but I don't know the details."
"Well, let's talk about it again. If it doesn't work out, forget it. I'm not determined to win."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Zhong began to think deeply. He knew it would not be easy when he asked Chen Qing to negotiate. It could be seen from Liu Hong's reaction when he mentioned the land. Liu Hong must have negotiated with TEDA before.
It will definitely end on bad terms.
But now it seems that things are more difficult than he imagined. TEDA Real Estate is not even willing to talk. From a business point of view, TEDA's behavior is obviously stupid.
But behind this seeming stupidity, there must be some other reasons. It may be business secrets that Chen Qing has not yet figured out, or it may be due to some personal feelings.
