Mo Yan couldn't help but think of the first time he received a letter from Mao Zhaohuang, the time when Mao Zhaohuang guided him in revising the manuscript, and the time when Mao Zhaohuang took him to Baiyangdian to collect the works...

Tears filled his eyes unconsciously, "Teacher Mao, I understand, I will write well! Thank you for your encouragement. I will never forget your help."

Mao Zhaohuang's happy laughter came, "Silly boy, I think you are too happy and confused. You have to thank Xu Lingjun, he is the biggest helper to you."

"You are the Bole who discovered me, and he is the general who led me to the battlefield."

Listening to Mo Yan's words, Mao Zhaohuang laughed loudly and joked: "Are you thanking us or are you praising yourself?"

Mo Yan, who was already filled with joy and excitement, was a little incoherent, but fortunately Mao Zhaohuang didn't care.

At this moment, he was even happier than Mo Yan. Seeing that this young man he had dug out by himself was valued by famous people in the literary world was also an affirmation of his vision and past training.

He encouraged Mo Yan a few more words, and the two ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, while Mo Yan was still immersed in the huge surprise, someone called his name.

"Mo Yan, I have your letter!"

Mo Yan came to his senses and ran to get the letter. When he saw the signature on it, he couldn't help but get excited again.

It was written by editor Tao Yushu.

He couldn't wait to tear open the envelope, and after opening the letter, he saw the elegant handwriting.

"Comrade Mo Yan:

Hello. It has been more than half a month since "Black Beach" was published. The editorial department has received many letters from readers talking about this work. Generally speaking, the praise is greater than the criticism. I think this is good news for you.

I recently looked for your previously published works on "Lotus Pond" and looked at them. The progress is obvious, and I hope you can continue your efforts.

If you have a finished novel, please send it to me for review. I believe that as your creative skills continue to improve, publishing will become easier and easier. I wish you will write an influential work as soon as possible.

In addition, Comrade Xu Lingjun published an article in "Yenjing Literature" evaluating your works, which is another good news.

shake hands!
