Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

"Digging for gold and silver..." Tang Xiaofu said innocently: "I know a little, but not much."

"It's okay. I'll give you some general information when we talk about the geological team!"

Lin Zhengjun had also invested in minerals in his previous life and often went to exploration sites, so he understood the lives of geologists.

Well, the wealthy people of his generation all like to invest in mining companies, and also in movies and TV shows, which is convenient for laundering small amounts of money and picking up female celebrities at the same time!

Our famous entrepreneur Comrade Lin Zhengjun has never had this!

He truly loves art, is a noble person, a pure person, a moral person, and a person who is free from vulgarity!

"In the early spring of 1974, Jingqiu, who was still in high school, was selected by the school to participate in the editing of new textbooks. She had to go to a place called Xicunping, live in the homes of poor and lower-middle peasants, interview local villagers, and then write the village history of Xicunping into a textbook for the students of Huanghuai No. 8 Middle School where she was studying..."

Lin Zhengjun held a cup of boiled water and began to tell the story slowly.

Lin Zhengjun has read the original novel and seen the movie, and spoke about it for about forty minutes.

Tang Xiaofu's eyes moistened several times as she listened to this. Finally, she burst into tears and said in a choked voice, "This is a great story. It reminds me of The Shepherd. There is something very similar in it!"

"Warmth, the warmth of beautiful humanity!" Tang Xiaofu pondered and finally summed it up in one word.

"You summarized it very accurately!"

Lin Zhengjun nodded slightly. Tang Xiaofu had been influenced by literature since she was a child, which gave her extremely keen perception and observation skills!

Tang Xiaofu suddenly pursed her lips and pinched Lin Zhengjun's shoulder.

"Ouch, what are you doing!" Lin Zhengjun felt pain.

Tang Xiaofu said angrily, "The third child was so good, why did he die of leukemia? It would be so nice for her to be with Jingqiu! But I am so miserable!"

Car accidents, cancer, and lovers becoming siblings, let's take a look at the three classic Korean drama routines.

Lin Zhengjun complained in his heart, but said seriously: "This is for the scars, for reflection!"

"At this stage, scar literature is the most popular. Only by settling past mistakes can we liberate our minds and better embark on a new journey. Therefore, we must lean on the scars!"

"How?"

"In order to get the job done quickly, the geological team blindly explored uranium ore without proper labor protection. Uranium ore is radioactive, you know?"

"Yes, I know. It's the raw material for nuclear weapons!"

"Yes, the third child got leukemia due to radiation exposure. Now he has scars and needs to reflect on himself!"

In his previous life, Lin Zhengjun had come into contact with many geological meritorious teams and learned about their glorious history!

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, generations of team members have traveled through mountains and rivers, slept in the open air, overcome difficulties, and achieved fruitful results in mineral exploration, demonstrating the mission and responsibility of our country's geologists!

During that period, many geologists became ill or even died early due to radiation exposure while searching for minerals for the country!

In fact, regarding the fact that the third brother was suffering from leukemia, some smart netizens in the previous life speculated that the third brother might be looking for radioactive minerals!

Tang Xiaofu sorted out her thoughts and felt that writing this story was not difficult at all!

Because she and Jingqiu have similar experiences, both come from poor families, so their mentalities are very similar!

"Where should the product placement be placed?" Tang Xiaofu asked.

"Of course the third brother gave Jingqiu a gift. He gave her Lao Gandie sesame candy and canned food as a token of love. You feed me a mouthful, and I feed you a spoonful. We are so affectionate!" said Lin Zhengjun.

In the original book, the third brother gave Jingqiu a lot of gifts, including rock sugar, walnuts, hawthorn fruits, pens, light bulbs, red cloth and so on!

Of course these gifts must be given, but Lao Gandie sesame candy and canned food must be brought!

Food is the most important thing for people. The types of canned food can be changed and the taste will be different every time. Is there anything wrong with that?

"Dog food?" Tang Xiaofu didn't understand.

Lin Zhengjun was sweating: "Oh, this is my little invention. Bachelors are worse than dogs. They can be called single dogs. Then when others are in love and are sweet and loving, they see it, which is equivalent to eating dog food!"

Tang Xiaofu nodded and wrote it down in her notebook.

Lin Zhengjun said: "In addition, when the third brother was critically ill, Jingqiu brought canned food and sesame candy from Lao Gandie to see him, and fed him spoonful by spoonful. The third brother smiled with tears in his eyes and said it was so sweet..."

"Oh, I feel like crying just listening to this..."

Tang Xiaofu's enthusiasm for creation rose again. She ran into the west wing, lay down in front of the desk, and wrote rapidly with great concentration.

"Just cry, cry! Please call me the creator of sadomasochistic writing!"

Lin Zhengjun chuckled and picked up People's Literature to read: "The novel has been published. I believe the hemp candy and canned food will sell well in Yanjing."

……

In the morning, at the Yenching Publishing House on Dongxinglong Street, Chongwen District, Yenching, an old wooden house is the editorial office of October magazine.

Even though October magazine hasn’t obtained a journal number yet—it didn’t get one until 1980—it has a great origin.

During the special period, the magazine challenged the newspaper and periodical management model and published literary periodicals in the form of literary series. Once it came out in 1978, the control began to loosen.

Half a year later, "Harvest" resumed publication.

A year later, "Contemporary" and "Huacheng" were successively launched, followed by magazines across the country being launched and re-launched like mushrooms after rain.

In the future, "October" will be called the Four Little Flowers together with "Contemporary" and other three literary magazines. It will also be known as "Damadan" because the works it publishes dare to expose the reality and face up to social pain points.

"Xinwu, has that madman Chu submitted any articles to us recently?" The magazine's editor-in-chief, female writer Su Yu, walked up to Liu Xinwu's desk and asked.

"Sister Su, he is a new writer, how could he become popular so quickly? Do you think everyone can become popular as quickly as me?" Liu Xinwu said proudly.

Liu Xinwu is 27 years old, not very old, but he is a well-deserved big brother in the literary world.

Te Te started publishing his works ten years ago and has been an editor of the Children's Literature Group of Yenching Publishing House since 1976.

In 1977, he published the novel "Class Teacher", which was regarded as the pioneering work of scar literature and had epoch-making significance. It also won the first National Excellent Short Story Award in 1978.

Together with works such as "Scars" and "Wasted Years", it created a scar literature trend that swept across the country.

In 1978, he was transferred to the literature and art group of the publishing house and participated in the founding of "October".

He can edit and write, and has new works published almost every month. He is definitely a quick shooter in the literary world!

"Besides, I told him in the letter that if he submits his work to us again, his fee will be raised to 6 yuan per thousand words."

Liu Xinwu said proudly: "Sister Su, you know I am very good at winning over authors. I paid him a very high fee for the manuscript of "A Generation". He was grateful and would definitely give me priority when he has a work!"

Liu Xinwu has gathered a group of outstanding authors from old, middle-aged and young ages.

For example, he also invited Mao Dun, the chairman of the National Writers Association, to write the editorial for the inaugural issue of October. Scholars such as Xie Mian, a teacher in the Chinese Department of Yenching University, also liked to write commentary articles for October.

Su Yu put the latest issue of People's Literature on his desk and said with a half-smile, "Take a look for yourself!"

"The Shepherd, author Chu Kuangren?" Liu Xinwu was immediately confused when he saw it.

Damn, Lin Zhengjun, I treat you as a brother, but what do you treat me as?

So wronged!

Although he was angry, he was still very interested in Lin Zhengjun's new work, so he quickly picked up the magazine and started reading.

then……

He looked hungry.

"Oh, are these Lao Gandie canned food and sesame candies really so delicious?" Liu Xinwu swallowed his saliva and continued reading.
