Chapter 154
He Qiaosheng was also a student taking the college entrance examination this year, but he applied to an art school. As early as when a banner was hung at the gate of No. 1 Middle School that read "Congratulations to our student Jiang Ning for being admitted to Peking University in advance," he decided to apply for the Beijing Conservatory of Music.
During his senior year of high school, Jiang Ning was locked up in the training team for various training and competitions. He also rarely focused on studying. His parents hired a tutor for him, and he was either taking tutoring classes or on his way to tutoring classes every day.
He has been learning piano and erhu since he was young, and has studied guitar for nearly two years. As for singing, several songs he wrote became a little popular through the competition last summer. They were also sold to record companies and are currently quite popular.
He is now a typical example of a person whose songs are popular but he himself is not. In addition, he has not appeared in public for more than a year. Although those songs have always been popular, few people know about him as the original creator.
His grades in professional courses are fine, the only problem is his grades in cultural courses.
There are generally problems with the academic subjects in No. 4 Middle School. Many students take a intensive course in academic subjects in their final year. Some even use their connections to go to No. 2 Middle School to take academic subjects for a year. Those who have money hire tutors.
He Qiaosheng hired a tutor.
Fortunately, his efforts over the past year were not in vain. After he finally received the admission letter from the Beijing Conservatory of Music, he excitedly came to the gate of No. 1 Middle School holding his admission letter.
At the gate of No. 1 Middle School, there is always the sound of "Jiangnan Garment Factory!" Jiangnan Garment Factory! Go bankrupt! Go bankrupt! 'The evil sound of the loud speaker has long disappeared from this street, and it was replaced by another breakfast shop. However, the business of this breakfast shop is not as good as the previous clothing store business. Even the traffic brought by the "Jiangnan Garment Factory" in the past seems to have disappeared with the disappearance of the "Jiangnan Garment Factory" store.
The street returned to its former deserted state.
He looked at the shop that had been transferred to someone else with some disappointment. There was no familiar figure in the shop.
He slowly walked to the gate of No. 1 Middle School and looked up at the sign hanging on the gate tower. There was still a sign saying "Congratulations to our student Jiang Ning..." He turned around and saw a sign hanging on the gate tower of Wu Middle School saying "Congratulations to our student Song Peifeng..." He smiled unconsciously and had more expectations for his trip to the capital.
He went to the capital in late August.
There is no airport in Wucheng, so he took a green train. The train rattled and took several days to get there. It was on the train that he saw the cover of the "Wuxia" magazine brochure, which had a big "Congratulations to Ning Meng for being admitted to Peking University!" written on it. 'Below is a line of slightly smaller words, but still very large compared to the other words on the cover' Lemon Tree returns with its new work "I...Jin Yi Wei"! '.
The person holding the book was the young man who was sitting opposite him, reading the book with great interest.
He also had the latest two issues of "Wuxia" magazine in his bag. Seeing him reading it, I couldn't help but take it out and read it as well.
Because he was about to take the college entrance examination, Ning Meng did not write a new work immediately after the completion of "White Snake's Cultivation of Immortality", so he did not buy several issues in between. He waited until he filled out the application form and the college entrance examination was over before he felt like buying the "Wuxia" magazine. He did not read other people's magazines, but directly turned to "The Imperial Guards" written by Ning Meng.
The boy opposite him had also finished reading the latest issue of "The King's Guards". In order to achieve sufficient publicity effect, this issue of "The King's Guards" was serialized with more than 20,000 words, which made the readers very satisfied. Moreover, according to an interview with Ning Meng in "Wuxia" magazine: Ning Meng was very busy with her studies before, and she had to prepare for the university entrance examination, so she did not start writing immediately after the completion of "White Snake Cultivation". When "The King's Guards" was first published, because of the busy studies and not much time to write, only 10,000 words were serialized in each issue in the early stage, which was similar to the serialization volume of other serialized works. However, the readers who had been fed with appetite by Ning Meng before felt that it was far from enough.
This is also the reason why "Wuxia" did not carry out large-scale publicity for Lemon Meng's new work before, for fear that if they did a good job of publicity, "The King's Guards" would have a gap, which would be very funny. After all, Lemon Meng is representing the country in international competitions and has no time to write for you.
So I have been very low-key before.
Now they have accumulated enough manuscripts. Even if Ning Meng is locked up in school due to military training, they will have enough manuscripts to cope with the time when Jiang Ning is unable to write.
The boy opposite had finished reading the latest issue of Jin Yi Wei. After putting down the magazine, he saw a boy of about his age opposite him also reading Wuxia. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey, buddy, do you like Wuxia too?"
He Qiaosheng looked up and turned to the page of Jinyiwei. He nodded and said, "I am a loyal reader of Ningmeng."
The boy's eyes lit up: "What a coincidence? I watch Ning Meng too." He said with some distress: "It's just that all the works of Ning Meng start from the perspective of the heroine."
Relatively speaking, it is the male protagonist's perspective, which makes him feel more involved.
Previously, it was rumored that Ning Meng was an old police officer in the system, so they put themselves in the author's perspective and it was very enjoyable to watch, but...
He couldn't help but lean over, "You like Ning Meng, have you read the latest issue of 'Wuxia'?" He opened the cover of the 'Wuxia' in his hand, "Fuck, what does it mean when it says 'Congratulations to Ning Meng for getting admitted to Peking University' on the cover? Didn't they say Ning Meng is an old policeman? Does this mean that Ning Meng is in the same class as us?"
This is impossible no matter how you think about it.
There is also a lot of noise about this issue on the Internet.
The main thing is that there was a netizen who posted a message on the forum, shouting: If last year's 'Ning Meng' was a girl, the netizen who stood upside down and ate shit, come out!
Then, he released the latest promotional cover and poster of "Wuxia", as well as Ning Meng's latest work "Jin Yi Wei". He used the fact that the new work "Jin Yi Wei" was also from the perspective of the female protagonist, and that Ning Meng was admitted to Peking University, as an excuse to refute the rumors spread by netizens last year that Ning Meng was an "old police officer within the system", and concluded that Ning Meng must be a man.
He shouted in the post: "The latest issue of "Wuxia" has officially confirmed that Ning Meng is not an old policeman in the system, but a freshman this year who was admitted to Peking University. Last year, your claim that Ning Meng is a man is not true at all!"
"The person named 'Ning Meng is a girl, I eat shit' is a netizen. If you are still online, you should come out and admit your mistake and get spanked!"
The publicity effect this time was also explosive, because it was promoted simultaneously by the magazine and the publishing house. Many students who were still in summer vacation and had not yet started school went to bookstores to read books every day. When they saw the poster for the latest issue, they thought they were seeing things.
'Congratulations to Ning Meng for being admitted to Peking University'?
Is this Ning Meng the Ning Meng they know?
Then they opened her latest published book. Just looking at the title "My Years as the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard", which was so similar to the title of the two books "The Song Dynasty" and "White Snake", was enough to let them know that this Ning Meng was probably the same person as the Ning Meng they knew.
When you open the title page of the first volume of the physical book "Jin Yi Wei", you will see the introduction of the author Ning Meng written on the folded cover page.
Ning Meng is a new martial arts writer and a freshman of Peking University in 1997. She is the author of "The Years I Was a Constable in the Song Dynasty" and "The Years I Was a White Snake Cultivating Immortality".
When this introduction came out, even those who were still in disbelief confirmed that it was the Ning Meng they knew.
Then a bunch of question marks popped up in their minds: What? Ning Meng is actually a freshman this year? Ning Meng actually got admitted to Peking University?
How old is Ning Meng?
Many people were attracted by the name of Ningmeng, and without thinking twice, they just picked up "The Imperial Guards" and sat down under the bookshelf in the bookstore to start reading. Those who were not short of money bought the first volume of "The Imperial Guards" on the spot and read it at home. Some people were still not satisfied after reading it, so they bought the book.
There are also a large number of people who, when they get home or go to an internet cafe, can't help but look for other Lemon Tree readers online to complain about this matter, and then they see this post and flock to it: [Who has read the latest issue of "Wuxia"? Anyone got any inside information to share? 】
[I have called the "Wuxia" magazine to confirm before, and the staff there said that he was an old policeman in the system. Now they say that Ning Meng is a recent college graduate, and a student from Peking University. Is there anyone who knows what's going on and can tell me? 】
[I've already figured out that Ning Meng is a girl, but you still don't believe it. Why don't you look at how old Lu Zhen, the heroine of "The Song Dynasty", was when she first appeared? Thirteen years old! The little white snake turned into White Snake! I won’t talk about the Little White Snake, because the White Snake is a preconceived notion. Many people have used this point to say that Ning Meng is a man. Now Ning Meng’s new work "The King’s Guards" is out. If Ning Meng is a man, what reason does he have to make the protagonist of "The King’s Guards" still a female protagonist? Is the male protagonist unworthy of being the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard? 】
This item was strongly opposed by many readers who believed that Ning Meng was a female author. Even readers who originally firmly believed that Ning Meng was an "old policeman within the system" and were now slapped in the face by the official "Wuxia" magazine were silent.
In addition to discussing this point, some readers are discussing another thing.
[Have you noticed that Ning Meng is a freshman this year? His first article was serialized in "Wuxia" two years ago. In other words, he started writing in the summer vacation between his first and second year of high school. In two years, he wrote two long novels, and he was admitted to Peking University! 】
[Fuck, what kind of god is this?] 】
Before, no one had done a specific statistics on how many words Ningmeng had written in the past two years. Soon, a talented reader counted the number of words written by Ningmeng in the past two years, and it was more than 1.8 million words!
[I worked so hard to take extra classes in high school that I almost went bald. Ning Meng wrote more than 1.8 million words in two years of high school and also got admitted to Peking University. On the disparity among human beings! 】
As Director Li Ang expected, as soon as the promotional strategy of "Congratulations to Ning Meng for being admitted to Peking University" was released, the popularity of "Wuxia", Ning Meng, and "Jin Yi Wei" soared rapidly. The most intuitive data brought about was that the latest issue of "Wuxia" finally experienced a one-time surge in sales after experiencing a downward trend for several months!
