Xu Zechen stood up to ask a question. Not only Yu Dong was surprised, but Liang Huishi, the host, was also stunned.
Liang Huishi teaches in the Chinese Department, and he arranged for the students to ask questions at this event, but he did not arrange for Xu Zechen at all, and he did not remember that there was a person as famous as Xu Zechen in the Chinese Department.
However, in this scene, Liang Huishi couldn't say anything, so she could only smile and said: "This classmate, what do you want to ask?"
Xu Zechen looks young, with thick eyebrows and small eyes. Although he is not tall, he is quite energetic. The most concerning thing is his nose, which is very big and the nostrils are a bit turned out. In addition, he likes to raise his head when speaking.
He kept his head down, so even though Yu Dong was on the stage, his nostrils could still be seen.
Hearing Liang Huishi's question, Xu Zechen said with a smile: "My first question is to ask Teacher Yu Dong."
Yu Dong is no stranger to Xu Zechen. This guy is one of the best among writers born in the 1970s. At such a young age, he has won three of the four major awards except for Cao Yu's drama. In terms of the number and weight of awards, he is the best among his peers.
Among them, no one is invincible.
But Yu Dong has never seen such a young Xu Zechen.
Yu Dong remembered that when he left at the end of 2019, Xu Zechen had just won the Contradiction Literature Award. At that time, the media were saying that Xu Zechen was young and only in his early forties.
Calculating the time, Xu Zechen might not even be twenty at this moment.
Yu Dong looked at the young Xu Zechen and asked with interest: "Classmate, do you have any questions for me?"
Xu Zechen organized the language and said, "Teacher Yu Dong, I have studied your previous novels and found that the style of each one has changed, especially "The Crowd", in terms of writing techniques, it is different from the previous ones.
There is a big difference between several novels. We all know that a successful writer often has a strong personal style and leaves traces in his writing, but you seem to have been trying to change... This change is something you deliberately made for
Or does it happen naturally? Don’t you think that such constant changes will cause you to lose your personal style?”
Yu Dong raised the microphone and was about to answer when Bi Feiyu on the side smiled and said, "How about I answer this question?"
"Okay, come on." Yu Dong nodded.
Seeing Yu Dong nodding, Bi Feiyu looked at Xu Zechen with a smile: "The reason why I want to help Yu Dong answer this question is because as his reader, I can responsibly tell this classmate that Yu Dong is indeed good at writing.
There have been changes, but his style is not as strong as this classmate said. In fact, if you read Yu Dong's novels carefully, you will definitely be able to recognize the difference between his works and other people's works."
"A person's style is an overall thing, not fixed in a certain range. Just because an author writes realism today does not mean that he cannot write romanticism tomorrow. Just like a chef made a dish of scrambled eggs with cucumbers today.
, I can naturally cook a plate of radish stew tomorrow. A writer’s style will not be erased because of the different types of writing, and a chef’s style will certainly not disappear because of the different dishes he cooks. I say this, you understand.
What?"
Xu Zechen nodded and asked, "Will Mr. Yu Dong continue to seek more changes in writing techniques for his next work "Old Book"?"
Bi Feiyu looked at Yu Dong, meaning that he couldn't answer this question.
Yu Dong smiled and took over the conversation, "Compared with "The Crowd" and "Xiangxi", "Old Book" will be more peaceful in terms of story and language. In addition, I will tell you something here, "Old Book" and "The Crowd"
"There is some relationship. In fact, "Old Book" is extended from a certain part of "The Crowd". I can't say more. You will know after you read it after it comes out."
"Teacher Yu Dong, when will this book come out?" Xu Zechen asked again.
Xu Zechen asked several questions in a row, but Liang Huishi did not interrupt, because it seemed that these questions were normal, and he really wanted to know the release date of "Old Book".
When he was designing questions before, he thought about asking students to ask questions related to "Old Books", but considering the other three, he did not design such questions.
Yu Dong spread his hands: "I can't answer this question for you. The other language versions of this book are currently being translated. We need to wait until all languages ​​are translated before there will be any further information. Now we can decide when the book will be released.
It’s not me who sells it, but the translators who work silently behind the scenes.”
"Teacher Yu Hua, I heard..."
After asking Yu Dong, Xu Zechen asked Yu Hua and the others a few more questions. Seeing that he seemed to have endless questions, Liang Huishi quickly said: "This classmate, your time is limited today, please give the opportunity to other students.
."
Hearing Liang Huishi's words, Xu Zechen nodded and sat down again.
After this small episode, the event returned to its original track and continued smoothly.
When the lecture was about to end, someone came up to the stage and whispered a few words to Liang Huishi. Liang Huishi looked in the direction of Xu Zechen in the audience with a surprised look on her face.
After a while, two people walked up to Xu Zechen and invited Xu Zechen out.
There was no big commotion during the whole process, but Yu Dong had been paying attention to Xu Zechen, so he saw him being asked out.
After the lecture was completely over, Liang Huishi asked them to go to the side. Yu Dong couldn't help but asked Liang Huishi: "I saw someone took the student who just asked the question out. Did something happen?"
Hearing Yu Dong ask about this matter, Liang Huishi smiled awkwardly, "Teacher Yu, you also noticed it. It's really hard to explain this to you..."
While they were talking, several people walked out of the auditorium and saw two people standing in front of Xu Zechen, talking to him.
As for Xu Zechen, he kept his head down and listened obediently without speaking back at all.

Hearing the word "education", Bi Feiyu asked curiously: "Lao Liang, what's going on? Is it because this child didn't follow the process you designed?"
Liang Huishi quickly said: "How is that possible? Although we have made some designs in the process, we will not embarrass the students because of this matter. Besides, the child did not ask any excessive questions."
"Yes, if that's the case, why should we educate him?" Yu Hua asked.
Liang Huishi sighed slightly and explained, "You guys don't know something. This child is not from our school."
"Not from your school?" Yu Dong said in surprise: "Then how did they get in and are still in the front row?"
"I don't know the specifics. What they told me is that he is not from our school. In fact, when I saw him just now, I felt a little strange. I teach in the Chinese Department, and I can't say that I know all the students in the Chinese Department.
, but I’ve basically seen him face to face, and I have no impression of this kid at all.”
When Yu Hua heard this situation, he thought it was quite interesting and said with a smile: "Let's go up and talk to him to see what the situation is."
With that said, Yu Hua walked over first, followed by the others. When they came closer, the two people from the security office stopped when they saw them coming.
"Teacher Liang, dear teachers."
Liang Huishi nodded and asked, "Have you made the situation clear?"
"After asking clearly, his classmate is from our school. There is a seat in the auditorium for this event, so he came in for his classmate."
"Which school?"
"From Huaiyin Normal University."
"Hey, it's really far away. It's not easy for your school to get here."
"It's not that difficult." Xu Zechen said.
Yu Hua joked: "That classmate of yours is so loyal that he actually let you in."
"We agreed to treat him to two meals."
Xu Zechen's words made Yu Dong and others laugh.
Hearing Yu Dong and the others laugh, he raised his head and looked at them, and said to the people from the security office with some dissatisfaction: "Your school didn't say that the quota for participating in the activity is not allowed to be transferred to others, nor did it say that people from other schools cannot participate.
What I did did not violate your school's rules."
Liang Huishi swallowed, not to mention that there was nothing wrong with Xu Zechen's words. He did not say this when he sent out the notice for this event.
"But you can't lie either. It's definitely wrong to lie."
"I didn't lie."
"Didn't you lie? You just said in the auditorium that you were from the Chinese Department."
Chapter completed!
