Chapter 291: Awesome
"It's the name of Liuzi. I think we should keep it!"
After Wei Junyi said this, Lin Weimin's heartbroken expression froze on his face, and then he frantically deduced in his mind, and after a moment he smiled.
A servile smile.
"lead……"
"Comrade Junyi, this... is inappropriate, right?" Wang Meng spoke before Lin Weimin.
Lin Weimin immediately said, "Why is it inappropriate? Why is it inappropriate? I changed my real name, who can tell that I am scolding them? Besides, I even changed my pen name, what else do you want? Teacher Wang, aren't you bullying an honest person?"
At this moment, Lin Weimin directly transformed into Hu Wan.
Without Wang Meng saying anything, Wei Junyi started to scold him, "Behave yourself. Can you stop jumping around? Can you give us some peace of mind?"
After scolding Lin Weimin, she said to Wang Meng: "Anyway, they have all changed their names. Weimin is also a pen name. No one knows that he wrote the novel. When people see the name 'Lin Weimin' in the novel, they will only think that this is a novel to plead for Weimin."
Wang Meng thought: That's what you said, but you underestimated the associative and gossipy abilities of those who read novels. For this kind of thing, one's own conviction is enough.
Wang Meng was sure that as soon as "The Story of Stealing an Official" was published and the three words "Lin Weimin" appeared in the novel, readers would only need a few days to guess the remaining names.
Thinking of this, Wang Meng seemed to understand Wei Junyi's intention.
The name remains unchanged and Lin Weimin does not use a pen name, which is equivalent to Lin Weimin throwing feces in the faces of those people with his bare hands.
Lin Weimin jumped up and stretched his neck: I’m going to fuck you!
All of them are pseudonyms, and Lin Weimin used a pen name, which is equivalent to Lin Weimin wearing a pair of gloves and throwing feces in those people's faces.
Lin Weimin put his hands in his pockets: I just want to beat you guys, why am I afraid of getting my hands dirty!
They all used aliases but left their real name "Liuzi". Lin Weimin also used a pen name, which was equivalent to Lin Weimin putting on gloves and a mask and throwing feces on those people's faces.
Lin Weimin walked by with his hands in his pockets and whistled: Hey, who did this?
Of course, after the novel was published, everyone would still associate this novel with Lin Weimin.
But you have no evidence. He used a pen name. All the characters in the novel are pseudonyms. There is only one name "Lin Weimin". If you really want to be picky, then it is just that some talented writer is standing up for Lin Weimin!
What can you do?
Just tell me, is this disgusting or not?
This is called leadership wisdom!
Wang Meng figured out the twists and turns here and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I originally thought that he was a leader who took the overall situation into consideration, but I didn't expect that he was not only protective of his subordinates, but also had such clever tactics.
However, doing so at least preserves the impartiality of People's Literature and does not count as abusing public power for personal gain or taking sides arbitrarily.
"Then... I'll listen to you!"
The moment Wang Meng said this, he felt relieved.
I finally integrated into the big family of Guowen Society.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your understanding. Thank you very much!"
Lin Weimin shook Wang Meng's hand with a look of gratitude on his face.
Wei Junyi said, "Stop playing tricks here, quickly revise the manuscript, hand it over to the editorial department, and send it out as soon as possible!"
"Yes, yes, yes, change it quickly and send it out quickly!" Lin Weimin nodded.
Leader, you are a good person!
I’ll stop saying bad things about you behind your back.
Wei Junyi asked Wang Meng to stay for a chat, and Lin Weimin staggered out of the editor-in-chief's office.
As he passed by the People's Literature office, his face was full of smugness.
Xie Mingqing felt something was wrong when he saw him like this.
"Hey, Lao Xie, give me the pen."
"what?"
Lin Weimin threw the manuscript onto the table and said angrily, "Revise the manuscript!"
Young people are full of energy!
Xie Mingqing felt relieved when he saw Lin Weimin scribbling over the names of people in the manuscript. The editor-in-chief and the chief editor worked together to finally tame this monkey. How great it was that now everyone could live in peace.
"Well, this name is well adapted. Huang Silang, I can't tell who he is, but it fits the character quite well."
Lin Weimin thought: Nonsense, how can it not fit the character? This is the original name. I wasted so much energy, I have to change it back!
Xie Mingqing watched Lin Weimin change the names of the people in the manuscript one by one, except for the real name of "Liu Zi".
He pointed to that spot and asked, "Why don't you change this?"
Lin Weimin smiled and said nothing, then turned the manuscript back to the first page, crossed out the three words "Lin Weimin", and wrote the name "Zhang Muzhi" next to it.
this……
Xie Mingqing pondered for a moment, then fell silent.
He felt that he seemed to understand something.
Comrade Junyi, you are confused!
"Come, take the manuscript!"
Lin Weimin handed the manuscript to Xie Mingqing with satisfaction.
Xie Mingqing took the manuscript and felt very upset.
"I saw four words on your face."
"So handsome?"
"The villain succeeds!"
Lin Weimin stood up from his chair with a laugh. He knew, of course, that Old Xie was making fun of him because he was depressed.
Teacher Lin is a broad-minded and magnanimous person. He doesn't mind Comrade Xie's rude words at all.
"A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years! A villain's revenge is from morning till night! Old Xie, what you said is very accurate. It seems that you still understand me!"
Xie Mingqing was silent, and the editorial department was silent as well.
The lower the bottom line of a person, the stronger he is.
Today's Lin Weimin is so powerful that it's abnormal!
The full text of "The Story of Stealing an Official" has 160,000 words. It is a modified version compiled by Lin Weimin based on the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" and the original novel "The Story of Stealing an Official".
There is only one purpose, which is to disgust those grandsons who previously attacked and slandered him.
The main reason for submitting the novel to People's Literature was the impact it would have after publication.
In fact, he felt that it would be better to vote for Harvest. Not only would it solve the problem of influence, but he could also use the influence of Harvest to attack his opponents. Even if someone wanted to cause trouble for him, they would have to cause trouble for Harvest first.
This move kills three birds with one stone!
What a pity. With Old Madam Wei around, he wouldn’t dare to do that even if he had the guts.
After handing "The Story of Stealing an Official" to the editorial department of "People's Literature", Lin Weimin put his mind at ease and just waited for the novel to be published.
As the days passed, his life and work gradually returned to normal.
In early April, the latest issue of "People's Literature" was released.
As usual, countless readers bought this issue of People's Literature in major bookstores, post offices, and newsstands starting from this morning.
Many people couldn't wait to open the publication, and the first work "The Story of Stealing an Official" came into their eyes. The author was Zhang Muzhi, an author whose name had never been heard of.
Many readers were delighted, and what they liked most was the sense of surprise that the works of unfamiliar authors brought to them.
At the beginning of the story, bandits robbed a train and the leader of the bandits was called Zhang Mazi. Readers smiled and thought that this was the author's bad taste, as his pen name was the same as the protagonist's surname.
But when they saw Liuzi appear and read that passage of introduction, everyone realized something was wrong.
Sixth son, whose real name is Lin Weimin?
Is this Lin Weimin serious? Is this the Lin Weimin we know?
Readers eagerly turned the pages...
The bandit leader Zhang Mazi took the county magistrate, who pretended to be a legal advisor, his wife, and a group of brothers to Echeng.
Zhang Mazi rejected the bully Huang Silang's advances, and conflicts broke out.
When readers see the scene where Huang Silang's butler Hu Wan and his men frame Liuzi for not paying for meals, and the hot-tempered Liuzi even performs a caesarean section to prove his innocence, they can't help but feel a chill down their spines.
Considering the original name of Liuzi introduced at the beginning, these readers can be 100% sure that this Liuzi is the Lin Weimin they know.
This novel...
Many people turned to the author's name at the beginning again, "Zhang Muzhi".
Who exactly is this Zhang Muzhi?
Lin Weimin? Or some hero who stood up for him?
There are readers who are nitpicking, but more people are more interested in the content of the novel.
The plot of "six sons' caesarean section" was so shocking that everyone couldn't help but turn to the back.
Backstage of People's Art Theatre.
Liang Guanhua was reading a book with great interest.
"What are you looking at?" a voice sounded beside me.
Liang Guanhua was so absorbed in reading that he didn't notice who was talking to him and blurted out, "Teacher Lin's new novel."
"Oh? Weimin is writing a new novel?"
Liang Guanhua finally reacted, looked up, and stood up quickly in shock, "Dean!"
Yi Shizhi waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay. As an actor, it's good to read more books."
He pointed at the People's Literature in Liang Guanhua's hand and asked, "Has the novel just been published?"
Liang Guanhua quickly handed the book to Shi Yizhi and said, "It just came out today. Take a look."
Yi Shizhi took the book, flipped through the contents, and then turned to the table of contents.
"Which piece is it? Why can't I find it?"
Liang Guanhua pointed to the book "The Story of Stealing Officials" on the catalog and said, "President, this is it."
"This?" Yi Shizhi turned to the page of "The Story of Stealing Officials", "Isn't this written by Zhang Muzhi?"
"Zhang Muzhi is Lin Weimin!" Liang Guanhua said.
"Pen name?" Yi Shizhi asked.
Liang Guanhua chuckled twice, "You'll know when you see it!"
Yi Shizhi laughed and said, "You're still keeping me in suspense!"
But Shi Yizhi had to admit that Liang Guanhua aroused his interest. He looked carefully and his expression became serious after seeing the name "Lin Weimin" in the novel.
The coming and going of people backstage had no effect on Shizhi. Liang Guanhua waited for a long time. They called him to rehearse. Seeing that Shizhi was watching seriously, he did not disturb him and ran to join the rehearsal.
It was unknown how long it had been before Yi Shizhi finally came to his senses. He looked around but did not see Liang Guanhua.
I looked down at the book in my hand again. I had only read half of the novel, but it was not satisfying!
He closed the book, quickly returned to the office and closed the door.
In other words, I finally finished reading the novel and a day had passed.
He turned the novel to the beginning, looked at the three words "Zhang Muzhi" next to the author's name, and smiled meaningfully.
As the old saying goes, it is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain.
After watching "The Story of Stealing an Official" today, Yi Shizhi felt that this statement needed to be revised.
It is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a scholar.
Intellectuals are creatures that are powerless and look weak and vulnerable, but once a real fight starts, unless you kill them, they will disgust you to death.
When Yi Shizhi weighed the "People's Literature" in his hand, he thought of Pan Renmei in "The Yang Family Generals" and Wu Dalang in "Water Margin". These are all lessons from the past!
No matter how much he lamented, what was worrying him was that the group of people who had offended Lin Weimin before had nothing to do with him, Yi Shizhi.
His eyes turned to the book in his hands again, with only one thought in his mind.
It would be awesome if this thing were put on the stage of a drama!
