The next morning, when Zhang Chu was brushing his teeth on the toilet bowl in a daze, he suddenly remembered what happened last night.

His mouth was full of toothpaste foam. He looked at himself in the mirror and was very surprised. Did Ma Qiwei and the others read the book "Youth Pi" all night yesterday?

This is definitely a teenager who talks about it. It is much crazy than many young people. This kind of mood that I can't bear to let go of good works is something that any old bookworm has experienced.

"Doesn't this mean they acknowledge the quality of the novel?"

If you didn’t like this book in particular, how could you give up your sleep time to read it?

However, Zhang Chu was still quite puzzled. Why did Ma Qiwei see his novel? Is he also among the judges of good Chinese literature?

After finishing the quick washing, Zhang Chu took the textbooks and keys, went downstairs and rode his bike towards the campus.

During the summer vacation, he was a salted fish without any enterprising spirit, but after he arrived at university, the whole atmosphere was studying hard, so he was also driven by this atmosphere.

The classrooms of each course are different. When Zhang Chu came to the classroom, he found that the other three people in his dormitory looked a little unhappy and each shook his head.

"What happened to you three? What bad things did you do last night?"

Yang Ling yawned, and a little mist appeared in his eyes. He complained: "It's all your fault. What's so easy to write novels? Yesterday, we kept reading your novel on our phones after turning off the lights, but we saw that all the phones were out of power."

"Brother Chu, if I fall asleep later, you must use various methods to wake me up!" An Mi also looked sleepy, and the bottle of Nestle coffee next to her was empty.

Zhang Chu didn't expect that his roommate was also attracted. He held back his smile and said, "It's okay, you can sleep peacefully, I will cover you up."

...

Compared to these young people who dozed off, the judges who had only slept for less than three hours were all full of energy. Perhaps the elderly had little sleep.

As soon as Chen Yingsong saw Deng Yiming pushing the door, he joked: "Director Deng, do you think I'm given more than 100 points?"

"No more, no more, not much!"

Deng Yiming waved his hands repeatedly. Although he did not discuss with everyone in the hotel yesterday, he also took the novel content and read it slowly.

At first, I just gave the novel a decent evaluation, but with the beginning of drifting and the explanation of the second story, the whole story was connected, and the idea rose to more than one level.

"I just said that this book is already very mature and there is no need to make any modifications." Chen Yingsong said happily. He regarded himself as the discoverer of "Youth Pi" and praised him whenever he met everyone.

As the main person in charge of this essay contest, Deng Yiming said with relief: "It is worth receiving such a novel in the entire essay contest. Young people today are still very talented."

"Yes. Although he can still see his progress in writing in the work, this is actually similar to his previous works, with thrilling elements and suspense, pushing the imagination of literature to another frontier."

"Teacher Chen, please stop praising me. Just look at the contents later. Even if Zhang Chu's book is good, you have to complete the review work."

...

Deng Yiming, as the supervisor, found such a masterpiece on the first day of reviewing the manuscript, was of course very happy. Almost all judges from various categories said that the quality of the works was worrying.

Now it seems that at least there is such a fig leaf!

Zhang Chu's works are actually not weak in literary nature, but the story is too strong, which covers it up.

When Deng Yiming thought of this, he brought the manuscript and walked towards the office upstairs.

The chairman of the Chinese Writers Association has not always stayed in Yanjing. The main work is chaired by several executive vice chairmen. Li Jingze is on duty today.

Li Jingze, who is over 50 years old, can barely be considered a young man in the Writers Association. When he was reading the newspaper in the office, he heard the knock on the door and said, "Please come in!"

Deng Yiming pushed the door open and said with a smile: "Chairman Li, I am here to report to you the review of our China Good Literature Essay Competition on the first day."

"Old Deng, come and sit down and talk."

Li Jingze asked curiously, did any good works appear yesterday?

"It's shameful to say that. The recent essay contests are worse than the other, and they are a bit regressive. However, a novel was unanimously praised by everyone, and this old guy Chen Yingsong gave the full mark directly!"

"Oh? What novel? Old Chen is not a casual person. There must be a few tricks for his works that can get him full marks."

Deng Yiming smiled, "Zhang Chu wrote "The Fantasy Drift of Pi". This kid is also an alumnus and even from the same department as Chairman Li. He is a freshman who just got admitted to the Chinese Department of Yenching University this year. He had already written several books before entering the school!"

Li Jingze is a top student who graduated from the Chinese Department of Yenching University in 1984. He has served as the editor-in-chief of "Selected Novels" and "People's Literature". He also has a variety of works and collections of essays. He has won a series of honors such as the Lu Xun Literature Award for Literature Theory Criticism Award, mainly focusing on criticism literature.

"Everyone says that our Chinese Department cannot train writers, isn't this trained?" Li Jingze was a little happy. The relationship between alumni is still very useful in society.

"He is absolutely popular in our essay contest this time. Even if he wins the serious literary award, he has the possibility of winning the award!"

Deng Yiming highly praised "Youth Pi", which is completely different from a work that an ordinary student can write.

Li Jingze put the newspaper aside, and he thought about it and said, "Old Deng, copy it for me, and see how capable this junior brother is."

Originally, Li Jingze was very concerned about the discovery of young writers. Now the works of junior brothers in the same school and major have been praised by picky masters. This must be carefully read!

"You can check it directly with the computer. Yesterday, Mr. Ma and the others almost stayed up all night just to read this novel." Deng Yiming himself was actually the same, but he just didn't say it out.

If there are two such works, even if the essay contest is successfully completed, I don’t know if I have gained anything today.

After Li Jingze found the computer page "Boyant Pi" in the internal system, he clicked to read it.

Anyway, I don’t have to hold meetings or attend events today, so it’s pretty good to pass the time.

As a result, I couldn't stop seeing it!

"Is this a magical realism work? But it doesn't look like it."

Li Jingze said to himself that although this book has both true and false institutions, it cannot be called magical and illusion.

He felt that this book emphasizes more on how to survive in the tragic situation of losing all of its family members and drifting on the sea. This kind of survival is cruel and realistic!

"No wonder Old Chen gave him full marks. It would be a pity to lose one point."
