Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

One day after Liu Pingan became famous, the morning sun was like fine gold powder, shining through the sparse clouds and gently onto his morning jogging path. He was wearing a simple white sportswear and light running shoes, and every step seemed so relaxed and comfortable. He took a deep breath, feeling the freshness and vitality in the air, and enjoying this rare quiet time in the busy city.

However, this tranquility did not last long, as his appearance attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors.

"Oh, isn't this Liu Ping'an! The great writer!" An aunt recognized him first. Her voice was full of surprise and admiration, as if she had seen some great person.

"Yes, yes, it's him who wrote the touching 'Letter from Heaven'!" another uncle echoed, his eyes sparkling with curiosity and envy.

For a moment, passers-by gathered around, standing or sitting, talking, their eyes full of attention and curiosity about Liu Ping'an. They asked about various details of "Heaven's Letter", wanting to know more about the creative background and inspiration of this work.

Liu Pingan smiled and patiently answered every question, whether it was about the plot, characters or the creative process of the novel, he gave detailed answers one by one. He felt the enthusiasm and care of his neighbors, and the warmth from his hometown made him feel very close. He also knew that his success was inseparable from the support and encouragement of these people, and it was they who gave him the courage to persevere.

When he returned to the alley after running, the neighbors had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Liu Ping'an, they came up to talk to him, some holding his hand, some patting his shoulder, and talking about his fame and salary with emotion and envy.

"Oh, Ping'an, you're a famous person now! I heard that your novels sold very well and you must have made a lot of money, right?" an old lady said enviously, her eyes flashing with the desire for success.

"Yes, look how promising you are! Unlike my son who just plays all day and doesn't do anything serious!" Another aunt also complained, her tone full of dissatisfaction with her own child.

Liu Pingan felt ashamed when he heard these words. He knew that his success was not achieved overnight, but was the result of countless efforts and sweat. He understood that everyone's life trajectory is different, and one cannot simply measure a person's value by success or failure.

So, he smiled and said to the ladies, "In fact, everyone has their own strengths and specialties. As long as you work hard to do what you like, you will succeed. I write novels just because I love literature and want to use my own words to record life and convey emotions. Everyone's children also have their shining points. As long as we give them more encouragement and support, they will definitely find their own direction."

After listening to Liu Ping'an's words, the aunts nodded in agreement. They also realized their own prejudices and narrow-mindedness, and decided to respect and understand their children more and give them more support and encouragement in the future.

When Liu Pingan returned home, his parents had prepared a sumptuous breakfast. Seeing their son return home with a full load, their faces were filled with joy and smiles. They were proud of their son's success, and were also moved by his efforts and persistence over the years.

"Ping'an, you are a great writer now! We are proud of you!" said the father with a smile, his eyes full of love and expectations for his son.

"Yes, look how promising you are! You must keep working hard in the future!" the mother also advised, her voice full of care and encouragement for her son.

Liu Pingan looked at his parents' smiling faces, his heart filled with gratitude and happiness. He knew that his success was inseparable from his parents' upbringing and support, and it was they who gave him the power of life and growth. He also decided to work harder to create more excellent works in the future, use words to record life, convey emotions, and inspire resonance, in order to repay his parents' love and expectations, and at the same time contribute his own strength to the development of literature.

Liu Ping'an returned to his room and closed the door gently, almost reverently. The door seemed to become a barrier, gently isolating the noise and disturbance of the outside world. He slowly walked to the desk, which was an old desk that accompanied him through countless days and nights. It was piled with books and manuscripts, witnessing his growth and transformation. He gently pulled out the chair, and the chair made a slight creaking sound, as if welcoming his return. He sat down, adjusted his sitting posture, and prepared to continue writing.

This time, he chose the movie "The Horse Herder" as his inspiration. The classic movie adapted from the novel "The Flesh and the Soul" was like a spring, deeply touching his sensitive and passionate heart. Every scene in the movie was poetic and picturesque, and every line was powerful. They echoed in his mind and inspired his endless creative inspiration.

In particular, the pure love between the hero and heroine made him burst into tears. The kind of unrequited and silent love was like an oasis in the desert, which made him yearn for it. In the difficult years, they supported each other and grew together. The tenacity and perseverance made him feel the power and beauty of love.

He took a deep breath, as if to absorb all the emotions into his chest. Then, he picked up the pen, the old fountain pen that had accompanied him for many years, and began to outline the story on paper. He decided to use the love in the movie as the main line, and incorporate his own feelings about life and deep understanding of human nature to create a novel that truly belongs to him.

In the process of writing, he seemed to have traveled through time and space, back to that era full of innocence and passion. He experienced those touching moments with the male and female protagonists in the movie, and their joys, sorrows, sorrows, joys and sorrows, all turned into words under his pen, flowing on paper. His brushstrokes are sometimes delicate and gentle, like a spring breeze; sometimes passionate and surging, like a rushing river. He turned the desire and yearning hidden deep in his heart into the power of words, allowing readers to feel the sincerity and enthusiasm in his heart.

As time went by, his novel gradually took shape, and every word and sentence embodied his hard work and emotions. He knew that this novel was not only a tribute to the movie "The Horse Herder", but also an expression of his deep desire and pursuit for pure love. He hoped that through this novel, more people would feel the beauty and power of love, and believe that pure and persistent love still exists in this world.

When the last word fell, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had completed a difficult and sacred task. He looked at the heavy manuscript in front of him, and his heart was full of satisfaction and expectation. He knew that this novel would be another milestone in his creative career, marking another leap forward in his writing career. At the same time, it was also a profound analysis and display of his own view of love, which made him more clearly aware of his inner desire and pursuit.

He gently closed the manuscript and carefully placed it in a corner of the desk, as if it was a precious treasure. Then, he stood up and walked to the window, looking at the bustling city night scene outside the window. The dimly lit streets and the endless stream of people all tell of the hustle and bustle of this world. However, his heart was unusually calm, as if all the troubles had nothing to do with him. He knew that no matter how bumpy and tortuous the road ahead was, as long as he had love and dreams in his heart, he would be able to find his own way. And this novel was his solid step towards success and happiness.

A few days later, Liu Pingan finally put a perfect end to "The Shepherd". For him, this manuscript not only marks the completion of another novel, but also a profound spiritual journey and a comprehensive release of emotions. He gently stroked the manuscript paper, and his fingertips seemed to be able to touch the emotional fluctuations and source of power behind every word and every sentence.

With this manuscript that embodies countless efforts and emotions, Liu Pingan once again stepped into the door of October Magazine. This is the cradle of his literary dream and the place where many of his works were published. He knows every corner here and feels very close to every face. Every communication with the editor makes him feel the warmth and encouragement of home.

When he handed the manuscript to the editor solemnly, a hint of surprise and expectation flashed in the editor's eyes. They knew that Liu Ping'an's works always contained deep feelings and powerful power, and could always touch the softest and most sensitive part of people's hearts. This time, they were even more eager to know what kind of shock and touching "The Shepherd" would bring to them.

The editor took the manuscript and began to read it carefully. Their brows were sometimes furrowed, sometimes relaxed, and their mouths were sometimes raised, as if they were also deeply attracted by the plot and characters in the story. Liu Pingan sat aside, silently waiting for the editor's feedback. His heart was full of trepidation and expectation, because he knew that every work was a new attempt and challenge, and needed to be strictly tested by the market and readers.

Finally, the editors finished reading the manuscript and looked up at Liu Pingan. Their eyes were full of praise and affirmation, as if to say, "You did it!" The editors excitedly said, "Pingan, this work is really great! You have successfully integrated the emotions and characters from the movie "The Shepherd" into the novel, allowing readers to truly feel the innocence and persistence. I believe that this work will be loved and sought after by readers!"

Hearing the editor's words, Liu Ping'an felt a warm current in his heart. He knew that his efforts and contributions were finally recognized, which was the greatest encouragement and affirmation for him. He smiled and nodded to the editor, with gratitude and confidence in his eyes. He said: "Thank you for your affirmation and support! I will continue to work hard and create more excellent works to give back to readers and the literary cause."

When Liu Pingan left October Magazine, he felt particularly relaxed and happy. He knew that his literary journey was still long and required constant efforts and exploration. However, he firmly believed that as long as he had love and dreams in his heart, he would be able to find his own way. The novel The Shepherd was a solid step for him to move towards a higher and farther goal, and it was also a comprehensive display of his literary talent.

After returning home, Liu Pingan placed this precious manuscript in a corner of his desk, neatly placed together with his previous works. He looked at these manuscripts, his heart was filled with emotion and pride. He knew that these works were flowers watered with his hard work and emotions. They witnessed his growth and transformation, and also recorded his laughter and tears.

In the evening, when Liu Ping'an's parents learned that he had completed a new work, they were very happy. His father patted his shoulder and said, "Son, you are awesome! We are proud of you. Every work of yours is our pride and the driving force of our lives." His mother hugged him tightly, tears in her eyes, "Ping'an, you must keep working hard! We see your talent and hard work, and we feel it in our hearts. We believe that you will be able to go further and fly higher!"

Liu Pingan felt the warmth and encouragement from his parents, and his heart was filled with gratitude and motivation. He knew that no matter how bumpy and tortuous the road ahead was, as long as he had the support and companionship of his parents, he would be able to bravely face all challenges and difficulties.

The next day, Liu Ping'an brought the manuscript to the editor-in-chief's office of October magazine. The editor-in-chief was a serious and deep man, with unique insights and keen insight into literature. When Liu Ping'an handed him the manuscript, the editor-in-chief just glanced at it lightly, and then began to read it carefully.

The editor-in-chief did not read very fast, but his inner turmoil could be felt every time he turned a page. Liu Pingan stood aside, nervously waiting for the editor-in-chief's evaluation. Finally, the editor-in-chief finished reading the manuscript and looked up at Liu Pingan. His eyes flashed with admiration and surprise: "Pingan, your work this time really impressed me! You successfully integrated the emotions and characters in the movie into the novel, and also added your own understanding and perception. This work not only has extremely high literary value, but also has strong market potential. I believe it will definitely become another masterpiece of our magazine!"

Hearing the editor-in-chief's words, Liu Ping'an felt an indescribable joy and pride. He knew that his efforts and talents were finally recognized and appreciated by the editor-in-chief. He smiled and nodded to the editor-in-chief to express his gratitude and confidence: "Thank you for your affirmation and support! I will continue to work hard to create more excellent works to give back to readers and the magazine."

After the publication of "The Horse Shepherd", its influence spread rapidly, like an unstoppable fresh breeze, quietly penetrating into every corner of society and touching the softest part of the hearts of people from all walks of life.

In the bustling and noisy city, Mr. Li, an elite who has worked in the financial industry for many years, lives with numbers and reports every day, and the pace of life is so fast that it is almost breathless. However, by chance, he found "The Horse Wrangler" in a prominent position in a bookstore. At first, he was just attracted by the simple and poetic title of the book, and opened it casually, intending to flip through it during a short break. However, as he read deeper, he was deeply moved by the pure emotions, persistent spirit and profound philosophy of life in the novel. From then on, in the brightly lit office, even if he worked overtime until late at night, Mr. Li's desk was always filled with "The Horse Wrangler". Whenever he was exhausted and under great pressure, he would always open this book to draw strength and courage from it, as if he had found spiritual comfort.

In a remote village, Grandpa Zhang, an elderly farmer, lived a peaceful life away from the world. By chance, he heard the introduction of "The Shepherd" on the village radio. Although he was illiterate, his thirst for knowledge and yearning for a better life made him very interested in the book. So he asked the young people in the village to buy the book for him and asked them to read it to him word by word. Whenever he heard the touching plot in the novel, Grandpa Zhang's eyes would be red and he was full of emotion. He said: "This book made me feel the beauty of life and the true feelings between people, and it also made me cherish everything I have now."

On the university campus, The Shepherd has become a hot topic. A group of students who love literature rushed to buy the book, sat together, took turns reading the wonderful passages in the novel, and shared their feelings and experiences. They were deeply attracted by the characters and plots in the novel, as if they saw the shadow of their youth. This novel not only made them feel the charm of literature, but also inspired their love for life and the pursuit of dreams. They all expressed that they would integrate the spirit and emotions of The Shepherd into their studies and lives to make their youth more colorful.

On the production line of the factory, Master Wang, an ordinary worker, repeats monotonous and heavy work every day. However, in his spare time, he always likes to take out "The Shepherd" to read. He said: "This book makes me feel the true meaning of life and the significance of work. Whenever I feel tired and confused, I will open this book and find the motivation and courage to move forward." Under the influence of Master Wang, his colleagues also began to read "The Shepherd" and discuss and share their feelings with each other. They found that literature can not only cultivate sentiment, but also inspire enthusiasm and creativity at work.

In the government office, Ms. Zhao, a young civil servant, was also attracted by The Shepherd. She believes that the book not only has literary value, but also contains profound social significance and life philosophy. She often connects the stories and characters in the book with her work and life, and draws wisdom and inspiration from it. She said: "The Shepherd has made me more determined in my beliefs and pursuits, and has made me cherish my current life and work more. It has made me understand that no matter what environment I am in, I must maintain a pure and persistent heart to pursue my dreams and happiness."

The publication of The Shepherd not only helped Liu Pingan realize his literary dream, but also made more people feel the power and charm of literature. It is like a mirror, reflecting the truth and beauty in people's hearts; it is also like a lighthouse, illuminating the road and direction for people to move forward. Under the influence of this novel, people began to re-examine their lives and work, looking for inner peace and strength. They found that literature can not only make people happy, but also make them stronger and braver.
