Chapter 81: Life is a tragedy when seen up close, but a comedy from a distance
When Shen Jian pushed the book over, Zhang Zhong did not give in. He took the book with a smile and opened the cover.
Zhang Zhong took out a ballpoint pen from his pocket. He likes to carry a pen with him. However, he never had time to find a handy pen. The last time he was in Green Field, he didn’t even have a pen or paper with him, so he asked Zhang Junwei for one. In view of this, he brought a ballpoint pen to make do.
Shen Jian noticed the ballpoint pen in Zhang Zhong's hand, raised his eyebrows, and said nothing, just quietly watching Zhang Zhong write a line on the title page.
After Zhang Chong finished writing a line, he signed his name on the back. He wrote his real name. If this book is seen by others, his real name will probably be exposed.
After Zhang Zhong finished writing, Shen Jian couldn't wait to take the book and read the lines on it.
"Life is a tragedy when viewed from afar, and a comedy when viewed from afar. To my friend Mr. Shen Jian - Zhang Zhong."
Shen Jian thought carefully in his mind and couldn't find any trace of this sentence. Did Zhang Zhong write it specially for him?
Life is a tragedy when viewed from afar, but a comedy when viewed from afar.
After chewing this sentence carefully, Shen Jian had some feelings. People are always like this. They always look good to others, but when it comes to themselves, they are a mess.
He is engaged in comedy creation, and of course he knows that there is a tragedy hidden behind most classic comedies.
"Did you write this sentence for me?" Shen Jian asked excitedly.
This belongs to Chaplin, but unfortunately, there is no Chaplin in this world, so Zhang Jian nodded.
Seeing Zhang nodded, Shen Jian became even more excited and said repeatedly, "Thank you, thank you so much."
In fact, Zhang Zhong originally wanted to give Shen Jian another sentence: My heart is like two faces, usually pure white and usually shaded. I can choose to let you see it, or I can insist not to let you see it. The world is like a huge It's a circus that makes you excited, but makes me terrified, because I know that after the show is over, there will always be limited tenderness and infinite sadness.
However, considering that this sentence was too long and too tiring to write, Zhang Zhong did not write it.
Zhang Zhong especially likes the last eight words: limited tenderness, infinite sadness.
Behind the glory lies loneliness, behind the comedy [New Biquge www.biqule.info] lies the sadness. For Shen Jian, this sentence should make him feel the same.
…
The two of them sat in the Jiujiu Cafe for a while. After drinking the tea and eating glutinous rice cakes, Zhang Zhong went to pick up Peng Peng. Shen Jian was not an idle person either, so he was ready to leave at the door.
But when the two separated at the door, Shen Jian suddenly lowered his head and said, "Teacher Zhang, you go first."
Zhang Zhong was stunned for a moment and didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Shen Jian like this, he naturally knew that there must be some emergency, so he asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"Your two o'clock direction... don't turn your head. There is a man carrying a schoolbag there. He should be a reporter."
Zhang Zhong pretended to glance over there casually, and indeed saw a young man carrying a schoolbag. The young man seemed to be waiting for someone. He didn't look suspicious, but if you look closely, you would feel something was wrong.
Although it is November now, the weather today is not cool, and is even a little hot. However, this young man is wrapped up tightly, and his clothes seem to have a big bulge. There may be a camera or something hidden in it.
Zhang Zhong frowned. He had also been followed by reporters. These people were like dog-skin plaster and could not be shaken off.
But the current situation doesn't matter to him, because it is obvious that the opponent's target is Shen Jian.
In the spirit of a dead Taoist friend but a poor Taoist, Zhang Zhong smiled at Shen Jian and said, "Since you have friends, I'll leave first."
After saying that, Zhang Zhong walked away with his hands behind his back.
However, he was cautious and did not go in the direction of his home. Instead, he walked around the nearby community to make sure that no one was following him before returning home.
Although I knew that the reporter would not be able to follow me, I was afraid of the worst, so I sailed with caution.
If his identity is exposed, he can bear it, but if his home address is also exposed, it will be uncomfortable.
The first thing he thought of was how this would affect Pengpeng's life.
Although Zeng Jin does not often appear in the public eye, he does not lack the spotlight. He has become accustomed to it, but Peng Peng cannot do it, and neither can his parents. They must have their own happy life, and this happiness , he must try his best to protect it.
A while after returning home, he called Shen Jian and asked him if he had dumped the reporter.
Shen Jian laughed on the other end of the phone and said, "Get rid of it. He is a loser. He can't find me after two turns. I just drove by him and said hello to him, haha."
"You are a bit too arrogant."
"It's because they bullied others too much."
"Okay, it's okay, just hang up first."
Zhang Zhong is not worried about his identity being exposed. After all, he just drank tea with Shen Jian, and what the reporter took was probably the scene where they said a few words at the door. If this can reveal his identity , Zhang Zhong can only say that he is resigned to being defeated.
…
"Bubble Superman, he can fly high and have great strength. He can defeat bad guys with just one punch..."
Li Tianyi was cutting oranges in his hand. He glanced sideways at his husband and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Zhang Junwei will always sing this song "Bubble Superman" whenever he is happy.
And until this morning, the singing in Zhang Junwei’s mouth has not stopped.
Of course Li Tianyi knew what Zhang Junwei was happy about. Didn't he set up a book club yesterday? He also became the president. What made him most happy was that the account of the "Jieyou Book Club" he founded yesterday was actually used by Zhang Revamped the sign.
There are many people following this account, but the account "Writer Zhang Qianli" is particularly conspicuous in the list because it is a big V.
Zhang Junwei never expected that Zhang Zhong would know about the account they just created.
The attention of "Writer Zhang Qianli" is like some kind of special affirmation to Zhang Junwei, as if it has given their book club a seal. Zhang Junwei is now particularly confident in their book club.
"Tong Can just called and said that our nameplates will be ready tomorrow. Do you want them to come and pick them up tomorrow or on the weekend? They should be at work on Tuesday..."
"Tell them it will be ready tomorrow. Whoever has time can come and get it. If they don't have time, let them come over on the weekend."
"I just want them to get together when they get their nameplates..."
"Stop thinking about it. How long have you been making this glass of Grapefruit Yakult? It's not ready yet. The ice will melt soon."
Li Tianyi scolded, Zhang Junwei shrank his neck and started working quickly.
