Uncle Guo Zhiqiang was the most excited. He immediately gave Liu Rumeng a thumbs up and praised her:
"Mengmeng! It's been a while since we last met, and you've become more and more beautiful and elegant.
I think there is absolutely no problem for you to come to Hong Kong Island and become a movie star directly.
My uncle just happened to open an entertainment agency in order to train this kid Fucheng.
How about you sign a contract with our company? Then, I will help you to star in a movie and become a big star. "
As soon as Guo Zhiqiang said this, even his second uncle Guo Zhiming nodded and echoed: "Mengmeng, your uncle is right. You have great potential to be a star. I don't think any of the Miss Hong Kong contestants in the past two years are as pretty as you!"
The other cousins also started talking at once.
At their age, it is the time to chase stars.
When I think about it, if my cousin could become Miss Hong Kong, or even become a superstar that is truly popular in Hong Kong, how proud it would be to tell others about it!
In school, you have to walk sideways!
Mother Guo Linxian was relatively calm, and said with a smile: "Mengmeng, your uncle's suggestion can be considered.
But you just came to Hong Kong Island and are not familiar with it at all.
You can think carefully about what you are interested in and what kind of work you want to do.
Or maybe I can just come to the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency and work as a translator with my mom."
Yes!
Guo Linxian didn't worry about her daughter's livelihood at all. She knew very well how capable her daughter was.
Not to mention anything else, even among the translators under her at the Xinhua News Agency’s Hong Kong branch, none can compare to her daughter whom she has taught since childhood.
This was also where my uncle Guo Zhiqiang miscalculated.
He originally thought that Guo Linxian and her daughter would be worried about their livelihood when they came to Hong Kong Island and would be anxious to find a decent job.
But those of them who came from the mainland can’t even speak Cantonese, so what skills do they have to make a living in Hong Kong Island?
However, what no one expected was that although Guo Linxian and her daughter could not speak Cantonese very well, they could speak more "advanced" English.
Yes!
In fact, in this era, most people in Hong Kong speak Cantonese.
However, the English used by foreigners is the most elegant language.
If you can speak English, you can find a higher-paying job no matter what your other qualifications are.
However, among the real wealthy circle of Hong Kong Island, a large number of wealthy people come from Zhejiang and Shanghai.
Being able to speak Ningbo dialect and Shanghai dialect is a very good stepping stone to enter the upper class society in Hong Kong Island.
Liu Rumeng greeted everyone very politely and then followed everyone back to the Guo family.
Along the way, sitting in the Mercedes-Benz, she, like her mother, looked at the scenery of Hong Kong Island outside the window, but what she was thinking about in her mind was Shanghai where she grew up.
The contrast between the two places, the gap between heaven and earth, also caused earth-shaking changes in Liu Rumeng's heart.
…
At the same time, in Beijing, at the editorial office of People's Literature.
During this period, it can be said that the editors of People's Literature were really exhausted.
no way!
Who started the trend of "scar literature" in China?
Why is this subject realistic? What materials and content can be written about?
Countless manuscripts were sent to the People's Literature magazine from all over the country.
Article after article was published, but the editors had already become aesthetically fatigued.
After all!
Writing about the scars of a special era is nothing more than repeating the same thing over and over again, it's just like that!
The first one, "The forest is burning fiercely," could cause a huge sensation.
The first batch of writers who followed the trend were also able to receive relatively good reviews.
However, after writing so much, there is nothing new to discover.
Even some bigwigs in the Writers Association feel that this scar literature is about to sweep across the entire Chinese literary world.
Almost every well-known writer now has written several pieces of scar literature.
"Alas! Another piece of scar literature. I am sick of reading it recently!
But it’s still well written, I’ll publish it in the next issue!”
"Come on! Our People's Literature is pretty good now.
If you look at other magazines, almost all of them are submissions of scar literature.
We have other manuscripts and some of your works that can be published.”
"Eh? Look... this is... this is Haizi's new submission!
Oops! Why did I put it so far back? Come and have a look, everyone. It seems Haizi has sent a novel this time. The title of the book is "Drawing Sword"..."
