In fact, in addition to teaching Pengpeng to draw, Xu Yuhan also occasionally helps Pengpeng with homework. When Pengpeng is the only student in class, they are not painting most of the time.
After the painting class ended, Zhang Zhong got some good news in the evening.
His new novel "The Necklace" was forwarded by Huaxia Minbao again.
This time Huaxia Minbao’s reposting of “The Necklace” was not as troublesome as the last time it was reposting “Chameleon” because when Fang Xingkai asked him if he could repost it, he had already posted “The Necklace” on Weibo.
Huaxia Minbao does not need to notify Zhang Zhong in particular, it can be forwarded directly.
This wave of "catch up on the popularity" can be considered a success.
Moreover, unlike last time, this time the copywriting of Huaxia Minbao even included a long book review.
"Ms. Luo Zijun has lived for many years, but it seems that the only day that determines her fate in the rest of her life is January 18, and there is only one day that can explain her fate, which is the day when she reunites with Mrs. Liu ten years later. The fate of life
The critical moment is always only a few days."
"Mr. Zhang Qianli's new novel has a detailed narrative, clear rhythm, courage to jump, and courage to make choices. It is not just a matter of artistic techniques. This first requires the writer to have a deep understanding of the characters he writes..."
Well, it is indeed the copywriting of Huaxia Minbao. It is really good. This is not only a question of whether the pen is hard or not, but more importantly, the literary quality of the person who writes the book review can be seen from these simple comments.
.
What Zhang Zhong didn't expect was that the person who wrote his book review was not an ordinary copywriter at all, but Wei Fang, the editor-in-chief of Huaxia Minbao.
When Wei Fanggang saw the novel "The Necklace", he admired the author's narrative level very much. The story of this novel was originally ordinary, but there are two most exciting points.
The first point is the author's arrangement at the end. This drastic reversal will add a strong sense of irony. The second point is the author's detailed arrangement of the plot. Although the previous story is dull, through the detailed and appropriate story narration,
Let readers remember key information at once.
It is precisely these two points that make the whole novel sublimated.
There are so many satirical articles in this world. I don’t know how many people have satirized vanity. But the reason why Wei Fang takes a special look at this novel is because the author has accomplished these two things.
Wei Fang had only read this one piece of work by this "fifth-grade vegetative" at first, including the fact that the previous "Chameleon" was forwarded by the official account and it was not his arrangement.
For this novel, he also read all the other works of "Fifth Grade Vegetative" and finally concluded that writing "The Necklace" was no accident.
He also called Li Nan, the editor-in-chief of Provoking Literature, and asked him about the "fifth grade vegetative state". When he learned that the other person was just a young man under thirty years old, Wei Fang couldn't help but sigh.
Awesome.
…
Zhang Zhong’s works were featured twice on the official account of Huaxia Minbao and became a hot topic again.
The first-day sales of "Jieyou Grocery Store" in the past two days were considered satisfactory by a group of big guys, but it did not achieve a breakthrough.
However, after this incident, the sales of new books suddenly rose to a higher level, showing reverse growth. While the sales of other books in the same period were declining normally, the sales of "Jieyou Grocery Store" were still strong, and there was a strong trend of surpassing them.
.
On the first day, "Worry-Free Grocery Store" ranked tenth among new books in October with sales of 200,000, right at the bottom of the list.
But by the tenth day, the sales of "Worry-Free Grocery Store" had reached one million, ranking fourth on the October new book list.
Even for an old author, it is a gratifying thing for a book to sell more than one million copies. After all, if it sells more than one million copies, it is recognized as a best-seller.
As for Zhang Zhong, as a newcomer, the sales of Virgo exceeded one million within ten days of its release, which is considered a moderate miracle.
At this point, Zhang Zhong's pre-tax royalties have exceeded 3 million, but according to the agreement signed with Agitated Literature at the time, this month's royalties will not be settled until three months later.
Therefore, on October 10th, Zhang Zhong's bank card was settled with less than 500,000 in royalties.
The original manuscript fee was more than 500,000, but after tax was deducted, it was less than 500,000.
…
"Dad, why haven't any of the classmates in our class come over? I'm the only one here?"
The day after receiving the royalties, Zhang Zhong sent Pengpeng to school. Their new home was very close to Park Hyatt Kindergarten, just walking through a park.
On the way, Pengpeng asked Zhang Zhong in a somewhat depressed mood.
Zhang Zhong was stunned for a moment and explained to Pengpeng, "Those students in your class will not come over. They are still studying in the original school."
"But Wu Taotao told me at the time that they would come to me soon," Pengpeng said.
Forehead?
It turns out that Pengpeng thought that other classmates would join her soon. No wonder this girl didn't react at all when she transferred to another school.
I probably went to school for a few days and realized something was wrong.
"Pengpeng, how is the new school?"
"Okay, it's bigger than our previous school, and the teachers are also very good." Pengpeng said this, but her expression remained downcast.
After a while, Pengpeng said again, "But I don't know those children."
Zhang Jian nodded. It seemed that the transfer would still have some impact on Pengpeng, but he had no choice but to hope that Pengpeng could adapt as soon as possible.
It should get better after a while. Entering a strange environment requires time to adapt. After a while, when she gets to know the new classmates, this strange feeling will disappear.
Zhang Zhong himself also changed schools, but that was when he was in middle school. He did feel out of place at first, but as time went by, things got better naturally.
Zhang Zhongneng plays a very small role in the affairs of the school. The most important thing is to rely on the school teachers and Pengpeng himself. If he is lucky, his classmates may also be able to give Pengpeng some help.
After delivering Pengpeng, Zhang Zhong did not rush home, but strolled in the park nearby for a while.
Although it is October, the park is still colorful and colorful. Jiangyang City Government has really done its best for this park. As long as the flowers in any flower field are slightly sparse, they will immediately arrange for people to replace the flowers.
Since it is known as the sea of flowers in all four seasons, it must ensure that flowers are in full bloom in all four seasons.
Zhang Zhong walked through a bright chrysanthemum sea. At the other end of the chrysanthemum sea, there was an old man playing an erhu. His voice was desolate and melodious. The hoarse notes floated over the chrysanthemum sea, dancing and jumping into his ears. Not far away, several pairs of
The young couple cuddled together and listened quietly to the sound of the erhu.
He felt a little moved, and followed the notes to find it. Crossing the sea of flowers, he seemed to see a toddler boy walking towards this side with a smile on his face.
Zhang Zhong raised his head and looked at the sun. It is both the setting sun and the rising sun every moment. When it is extinguishing and walking down the mountain to collect all the desolate remaining light, it is also when it is burning on the other side and climbing up the lightning to spread the fierce morning glory.
.
He exhaled and turned to look in the direction of Pengpeng School. No matter what, his rising sun was there.
