Yu Dong originally thought that writing "Prison No. 7" would be easy, but after he actually started writing it, he realized how laborious it was. If he wanted to improve the story structure in the early stages, it would not be enough to modify it slightly, but to make some big moves.
, or even overthrow it and start over again.
He previously wrote "Prison No. 7" with about 30,000 to 40,000 words. Now that he has changed it like this, he will have to add a lot of details and the length may increase, but he will try to keep it within 100,000 words.
I kept writing until almost two o'clock in the afternoon, when Yu Dong was preparing to go to the office, there was a sound of someone knocking on the window above his head.
He looked up and saw Feng Ming's black face with a smile posted outside the window.
"Lao Yu, what are you busy with?"
After the last poetry meeting, Feng Ming became closer to Yu Dong, and they also changed their names to Lao Yu.
While talking, Feng Ming walked into the room with bold steps. He put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, and faced Yu Dong with his chin.
Yu Dong put away the manuscript slowly, then looked up at Feng Ming and teased: "Are you talking to the ceiling, or are you talking to me?"
Feng Ming then lowered his head, shook his head and said, "Lao Yu, let me tell you a good thing."
"My good thing, or your good thing?" Yu Dong asked while clearing the table.
"mine."
Yu Dong glanced at him and said, "I'm not very interested in your good deeds."
"Don't." Feng Ming suddenly became anxious, "Brother, something good happened, aren't you happy for me?"
After clearing the table, Yu Dong picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water, "Tell me, what good things are there? Have you made any progress with Teacher Wu?"
Mentioning Teacher Wu, Feng Ming's dark face turned slightly red, "It's still early for me and Teacher Wu to do anything. It's still early."
"What good thing is that?"
Feng Ming smiled and turned his hands behind his back to the front. He saw a letter in his hand. It seemed that this letter was the reason why he was so happy.
“Brother’s poem has been published in a magazine!”
He slapped the letter on the table, with the aura of having the world under his control.
Yu Dong glanced at the envelope and said, "It's "Jinling Selected Poems". Judging from your aura, I thought it was "Poetry Magazine" or "Stars"."
Feng Ming chuckled, "I'm satisfied with this, poetry magazine? Stars? I have self-awareness, so I won't waste my efforts."
"Don't belittle yourself." Yu Dong put down his tea cup, patted Feng Ming on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Maybe one day, "Poetry Magazine" begs you to submit articles to him and you won't even want to go."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the door, and then said to Feng Ming in the room, "Lock the door for me."
Feng Ming was still thinking about Yu Dong's words, and hurriedly ran out to lock the door again, and was in a hurry.
When the door was finally locked, he hurriedly ran towards Yu Dong, "Old Yu, what do you mean by this? Do you think you are optimistic about me? Am I still talented in poetry? Ehime was still
Praising my poem is pretty good. Hey, say something..."
Yu Dong did not tell Feng Ming that he was not optimistic about his poems, but rather disliked "Poetry Magazine".
The current "Poetry Journal" is still very important in the eyes of domestic poets, but in a few years, the standard of this publication will be reduced to an outrageous level. The original imperial journal eventually fell from the altar and was replaced by all the people everywhere.
Dirt mixed together.
…
After get off work in the evening, because Liu Changmin and the others had classes in the afternoon, Yu Dong had to go to the cafeteria to eat by himself.
After dinner, Yu Dong just walked out of the cafeteria. Hu Changqing, secretary of the Communist Youth League, walked quietly to Yu Dong and whispered, "Teacher Yu, please take a step to speak."
When Hu Changqing said this, his eyes kept glancing around, as if he was afraid that someone would hear him.
Yu Dong raised his eyebrows in confusion, wondering what Hu Changqing was up to and why he looked like a spy.
When the two of them walked to the corner, Hu Changqing spoke again: "Teacher Yu, I want to ask you something, and you must answer it truthfully."
Yu Dong nodded and said, "Well, Secretary Hu, tell me."
"Tell me the truth, have you submitted an article to "Science Fiction World"?"
Yu Dong looked at Hu Changqing in surprise, wondering how he knew this.
Before Hu Changqing could answer Dong, he added, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else about this. You trust me."
Yu Dong suddenly laughed, "Secretary Hu, I thought you were asking something serious, but it turned out to be this. Yes, I submitted an article to "Science Fiction World", and it was published in this issue.
.Secretary Hu, how do you know? Have you also read this issue of the magazine?"
Hu Changqing waved his hands quickly: "No, no, I heard what others said."
Then he stared at Yu Dong carefully, making a strange expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Okay, I know this. Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you and won't let anyone else know."
Hu Changqing said this and left.
Yu Dong stayed where he was, feeling baffled. He didn't intend to hide it from anyone, so it seemed like he had done something wrong.
Moreover, Hu Changqing also made mistakes in his preface and subtitles. One moment he said that he did not read the magazine and he heard what others said, and the next moment he said that he had kept it a secret for Yu Dong so that no one else would know.
This old Hu most likely read the magazine but was embarrassed to say it. He probably felt that children's books such as "Science Fiction World" would damage his identity.
Lao Hu is not a bad person, but he is very talkative and thinks about everything very complicatedly.
Perhaps he still felt in his heart that he had helped Yu Dong so much and covered up so much scandal for Yu Dong. Little did he know that Yu Dong had already told Wu Changxin about the "Science Fiction World" incident.
Comparing the two, although Wu Changxin is not very optimistic about "Science Fiction World", he does not behave like Hu Changqing.
It was not without reason that Lao Hu finally retired as Youth League Secretary. He wanted to be an official, but he was not the material to be an official at all.
…
The news that Yu Dong published a novel in "Science Fiction World" quickly spread in the school.
Although the sales volume of "Science Fiction World" is not good, there are still readers in Jinyi. Yu Dong has gained some reputation in school recently, so some students saw the word "Yu Dong" written in the author column of "One Day" and they immediately
Expanded the imagination.
They asked Yu Dong through a student of Gongmei, and Yu Dong directly gave an affirmative answer.
This was first spread among the students, and later spread to the ears of the teachers.
Hu Changqing heard other teachers discussing this matter, and hurriedly ran over to Yu Dong to clarify, saying that he definitely did not leak the information.
When Hu Changqing heard Yu Dong say that Yu Dong had leaked the news himself, his eyes widened with an incredulous expression on his face.
