The Melancholy of a Third-Rate Writer

On the other side, Lu Yulin soon read the latest article from Xiao Lu's first novel.

He has been watching day and night these days.

It's not because this third-rate writer has made much progress, but because he sees a lot of Lu Xiaohua's shadow in the article.

Xiaolu Luanchuang rarely mentioned his own affairs, and most of the time he just threw updates on the Internet.Only when he asked for leave, he would simply say, "It's hot", "The computer is scrapped", "I have a fever"... Lu Yulin thinks about Lu Xiaohua because of Lu Xiaohua's interview.

That was the time that Xiaolu Luankang disclosed the most personal information. In the interview, Xiaolu Luankang did not show his face, but only talked about many things and feelings in his creative process.Lu Yulin didn't care about these, but when he saw "today is my birthday", he subconsciously checked the date of the interview, only to find that it coincided with Lu Xiaohua's birthday.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, more clues will follow.

Lu Yulin couldn't bear to stop for a moment, and read all Xiaolu's books day and night.Later, I saw "I'm a little dizzy, but take some medicine and it will be fine, and it won't stop changing", "It's okay, I live alone, and I won't disturb others if I stay up all night", "It's the seventh year, I I started writing on my 16th birthday, and now I am 23 today, thank you for your company", Lu Yulin couldn't help but blushed.

For the first time, he realized what he had done to Lu Xiaohua.

He let Lu Xiaohua spend countless days and nights alone, facing loneliness and loneliness alone, working hard for a living alone, struggling with extreme suffering alone, so humble that he only hoped to be able to rely on his own works from strangers. Gain a trace of warmth from the kindness and companionship.

Lu Xiaohua lived a very strong life, but he no longer gave his heart to anyone.Because the encounters in his life are like the ending of each of his stories, what is delivered is always not cherished, and what is sincerely treated is always not responded to.

For example, the younger brother he loved, gave way to, and took care of since he was a child, turned him into a lonely guest wandering in a foreign land with incomparable cruelty.

Lu Yulin finally understood why Lu Xiaohua didn't want to see him again.

——Because after realizing all this, even he couldn't forgive himself.

It took Lu Yulin a long time to calm down his ups and downs before he stood up and adjusted his clothes in front of the mirror.Of course, he came to the boss's funny cousin not just to write a book review, otherwise he wouldn't have to go back to receive half a month of "pre-job training".

What he has to do is to lead the boss, this funny cousin, to the right path. Even if he can't take over all the family's property, at least he has to make some achievements in some aspects to be able to live in the town.

In fact, this is also a difficult problem for the boss. After all, it is easy for the boss to make money by himself, but it is extremely difficult to teach this funny cousin this skill.

The boss chose the path of "following what he likes".

To put it simply, it is based on the third-rate writers that Cousin Doubi likes as a starting point, and sends people to encourage Cousin Doubi to enter the publishing and film and television markets. !

After learning that Xiaolu Luanchuang is Lu Xiaohua, Lu Yulin realizes that everything seems to be under the control of the boss.He "guide" the funny cousin here, and the boss cultivates "little deer bumping" there.At that time, even if Cousin Doubi is still thinking about "Little Deer Crashing", at least he will have a work that can be sold. It is not too embarrassing to praise it, and it is not a disadvantage at all.

Lu Yulin frowned.

There is no other way for Lu Yulin to choose. If he does what the boss says, he and Lu Xiaohua can both live a better life and have better prospects—although it is just for the sake of "righteousness" and funny cousin.But if he doesn't follow the boss's wishes, not only the future of the boss Xu will be in vain, but also Lu Xiaohua will suffer. Of course, people like the boss will throw away useless chess pieces.

Lu Yulin had no other choice.

Cousin Doubi came over quickly, and he asked Lu Yulin expectantly, "Have you finished writing?"

Lu Yulin's eyes were still a little red, he just paused for a moment, then said to Doubi's cousin with red eyes: "No, I'm too absorbed in reading, I haven't started writing yet! I don't think such a good article should be buried forever, if I It would be nice to have a publishing company, and this article must be published!"

Cousin Doubi is thoughtful.

That night, Cousin Doubi happily ran to Lu Yulin with a plan: "I have a great plan, Xiao Linzi, you should join in too!"

Hearing his address, the veins on Lu Yulin's forehead twitched slightly.

Although he knew what was written in the plan without reading it, Lu Yulin took it and looked it over carefully.Sure enough, there were a series of investment plans neatly written on it, including publishing houses, sales channels, film and television companies, movie theaters, etc... If Doubi Cousin can really grow up, he will definitely find flaws: these detailed industry evaluations will definitely It cannot be done in one afternoon.

It's a pity that Cousin Doubi couldn't see it at all.

This was actually for Lu Yulin to see.

Strong capital, extensive contacts, and bright development prospects, anyone with a little ambition will not miss such a good opportunity.

Strength is the capital to speak.

Lu Yulin's hesitation lasted only two seconds, and he happily joined his cousin's "great life plan" with a happy face.

Isn't it just to coax people?This is his forte.

Lu Xiaohua knew nothing about what happened on the other side of the ocean.

At night Lu Xiaohua was so tossed that he didn't even have the strength to get up and look for food. Early the next morning, he was really hungry, so he threw himself to the table and ate without any image.

The boss was admiring his hungry face while drinking tea, and the wicked smile on his face was really heinous.

After breakfast, the boss wanted to hold a teleconference, while Lu Xiaohua hugged his little wife (notebook) and ran to the corner to save the manuscript.

Lu Xiaohua's new chapter code was halfway through, and the editor came over: "Have you applied for Sanjiang? Your book data is okay, go and apply for it."

The list recommended at the terminal Sanjiang is generally the best list in the new period, and it can be regarded as a watershed between red articles and street articles. If the data on Sanjiang explodes, the recommendation will rarely be interrupted in the future!

Lu Xiaohua has never been on this list before. At first, of course, the data was too poor and the writing was too bad. Later, he always hit the peak period of author writing, so he could only hope for the recommendation and sigh.

The editor specially came to remind me, and a small flame of joy sprang up in Lu Xiaohua's heart: "Is there hope?"

The editor said: "Half and half, I will help you fight for it."

Although the editor was not 100% sure, Lu Xiaohua was still very happy. When the boss approached him, he was still smiling, and his small smile completely betrayed his excitement.

The boss was inexplicably upset.

He asked, "Who are you chatting with so happily?"

Lu Xiaohua didn't notice the boss's displeasure, and said happily: "Talk to the editor! He has taken me with me since the second year I wrote the article, and he treats me very well! Just now he asked me to apply for Sanjiang, saying There is a half chance of success!"

The boss was thoughtful: "Half?"

Lu Xiaohua's heart rang the alarm bell, and immediately said: "I want to rely on my own strength to go up, don't mess up the money to buy the list."

Originally, the idea of ​​"turning half into 100%" really popped up in the boss's mind, but he dismissed the idea after Lu Xiaohua said so.

This kid's little tail is getting higher and higher recently, and he can even guess his thoughts. If you don't pull out his little claws that are getting longer and longer?

Although I don't know exactly what Sanjiang recommended, but thinking about it from the perspective of an operator, it is not difficult for the boss to imagine how Lu Xiaohua's "half and half" opportunity came about.

"When did I say I was going to spend money on you?" The boss hit Lu Xiaohua rudely, "Besides, strength? If you didn't have the General League and the Great League, it would be your turn? In order to keep the General League and the Great League Dameng, of course the website will give you a good position."

The meaning of this is very clear, even if he didn't go to say hello or spend money to buy the list, Lu Xiaohua didn't rely on his strength to get up.

Lu Xiaohua froze all of a sudden, like an eggplant beaten by frost, the excitement when he knew that he had a half chance was gone.

What he expects is always so trivial to them people.

It just happened to be such an insignificant thing, and they had to break his little expectation time and time again.

Come on, can't it be okay if he doesn't want it?

Lu Xiaohua put the manuscript into the manuscript deposit box, glanced at the Sanjiang application page that had just been clicked and was still wondering what reason to write.

Then he turned it off silently.
