"Teacher Xiao Zhang, you are a popular superstar now. You almost didn't squeeze in just now."

Wu Qun said with emotion that he rarely encounters such envious eyes from his colleagues. The reporters from TV stations, newspapers and websites can only be outside, but he sits on the sofa and chats with Zhang Chu.

Zhang Chu said modestly: "It's all Xuhong. If it weren't for so many messages from abroad, how could they follow me?"

"This is not necessarily. Teacher Xiao Zhang, you are too arrogant. Who doesn't know that you are the most popular and powerful new writer this year!" Wu Qun's complimentary sentences and then changed the subject, "What exactly made you embark on the road of writing?"

"Probably poor."

Zhang Chu joked, "After the college entrance examination, I wanted to spend some pocket money, so I was embarrassed to ask my parents for money. I happened to see a Sherlock Holmes competing for essays, so I thought about making some pocket money for myself. Who knew that as I wrote it, I would be so far."

"I just wrote a bestseller just by playing around. This is really amazing!" Wu Qun praised. The young man in front of him was really confident to say such things.

"Netizens are curious, why did you choose to go to Yan University instead of Tsinghua University?"

Since it is an exclusive interview, I will ask about any questions, but the content that ends up in the manuscript needs to be filtered and deleted.

Zhang Chu sighed and said, "This year, Tsinghua University gave our class a place to be admitted, but I did not choose to go to Tsinghua. On the one hand, I don't like the rhythm of Tsinghua, and on the other hand, the person who was admitted was not me."

Several people in the room burst into laughter almost at the same time.

You are crazy, it’s not you who were recommended, but Balabala said so much!

Gu Xinxue knew that this would be the case. It is easy to change the country and nature is difficult to change. If you can write jokes into novels, can’t you turn them into joke shows?

Wu Qun was so happy that he was exactly the same as on Weibo.

"Why do you think of going to North America to sue the Conan Doyle Heritage Foundation? We all know that transnational lawsuits are particularly difficult, but this lawsuit has received strong support from several well-known lawyers."

"To be honest, I was also surprised. Maybe I was born with better luck. I happened to meet these people with a strong sense of justice. I like Sherlock Holmes and am willing to lend a helping hand."

Zhang Chu really wanted to say that he spent a full five million to exchange for these lawyers, otherwise how could they feel so righteous? But Americans just take this trick.

"Some things that people can't do without even a lot of hardships, you can do easily. Is there any secret?" Wu Qun asked curiously.

"There is no secret. If you do your best with all your heart, you may not be as easy as a genius like us."

This bowl of poisonous chicken soup makes Wu Qun want to scold people. I know you are a genius, please don’t emphasize it repeatedly, okay!

After seeing Wu Qun's expression, Zhang Chu added a slander, "It is said that all roads lead to Rome, but some people were born in Rome, so don't compare with the rest."

After several critical hits, Wu Qun decided not to ask for trouble again. He asked about mystery novels directly.

It's been a long time since I spread the poisonous chicken soup so happily, and Zhang Chu still feels a little unfulfilled.

The straight interview was boring. Zhang Chu didn't know what he answered. Anyway, Gu Xinxue and Zhou Kang's expressions were pretty good afterwards, so he proved that his answer was pretty good.

"Teacher Xiao Zhang, we will post this interview as soon as possible. Thank you for taking the precious time to accept the interview."

Wu Qun stood up and shook hands with Zhang Chu. He had just asked many questions, including mystery novels, fan works, disputes in the poetry world, etc., which could allow readers to understand the young man in front of them more comprehensively.

Zhang Chu felt relieved, and he replied: "Then I will wait and see."

When Wu Qun walked out of the living room, he found that there were only a few people in his companions waiting. After seeing him, these people immediately surrounded him.

"Old Wu, you have to share the exclusive news when you get it?"

"Yes, you Southern Weekend will not be released until Thursday. Let's reveal it quietly. Just drink it in Sanlitun tonight."

"Southern food on weekends, we have to let the soup. How did Zhang Chu hook up with those lawyers? I don't believe that just an email can make the experienced lawyer agree. If they really have such a sense of justice, they will have won the Nobel Peace Prize one by one."

"How is Zhang Chu?"

They are all familiar buddies, and Wu Qun is embarrassed to refuse, but now it's already Wednesday, so the interview transcript must be sent back to the agency immediately, otherwise it will be too late.

So he had to bite the bullet and say, "Brother, it's not brothers, I won't reveal it. Time is really tight. I probably have to write all night tonight."

...

Zhang Chu, who was still staying in the living room, picked up the water bottle and took a sip of water. He really didn't want to conduct a second interview in the short term.

"It's very good." Zhou Kang praised, "But you have to cheer up tomorrow. Those reporters will definitely make things difficult for you. And now you are also well-known and criticized on the Internet, so don't take it to your heart."

Zhang Chu patted his chest, "I'm very hearted, it's normal to be scolded, but it's not normal to be scolded one day."

"Your book "Psychological Crime" will be released tomorrow. There are rumors that many film and television companies are interested in it. If you want to buy it, I'll try to contact me."

During the trial period, Zhou Kang had to work hard. If he could confirm the film and television adaptation of "Psychological Crime", his literary agent would basically be stable.

"No need to worry now, it's others who ask us, not us who ask others." Zhang Chu instructed that he did not want the works he brought here to be modified randomly, at least he had to make fine works.

In this work, the male protagonist and the second male lead are very tense, and the plot is also ups and downs, which is very suitable for both high box office and awards.

Gu Xinxue also agreed that if this "Psychological Crime" is handed over to a capable film company to produce, the stimulating effect on the original novel will be very significant.

If it is handed over to a small workshop for operation, then the quality of the works produced is not up to standard. Which audience would like to watch the original work of a bad movie?

Zhou Kang knew that he was a little too anxious, so he replied: "It should be true. We should take the initiative ourselves."

"By the way, are you planning to compete for this year's newcomer king?" Gu Xinxue suddenly thought, "I think Zhang Chu's grades this year are very dazzling. Maybe he can really win the best newcomer of the year."

Every year, the General Administration of Press and Publication will release corresponding awards, Best Work of the Year, Best Selling Work of the Year, Writer of the Year, Best New Writer of the Year, Best Adapted Work of the Year, Best Translated Work of the Year, etc.

This kind of official award is quite important, and the competition is very fierce every year!

The best-selling works obviously can only rely on sales numbers, and the other best words are a combination of reputation and sales. If you sell well, it does not mean that you are the best.

So if Zhang Chu wants to compete for the best new writers, then it is best to pay attention to the marketing of his reputation for his works now, not only the reputation of readers, but also the evaluation of industry insiders.

This is actually his weakness, because Zhang Chu did not even join the Writers Association, and industry insiders will definitely have emotional bias when selecting.
