Chapter 199
Wang Jiazhi was not interested in politics, but because of her unyielding character, she began to study current affairs and write political commentaries.
Everyone else found it strange, after all, all the writers were boys, and the two girls couldn't write well either.
But he didn't object and taught her very hard.
She was afraid he would think she was stupid, so she worked even harder. As usual, she had to write new stories and literary criticism, and she would always write until dawn. At these times, she was truly grateful to live in a house where she could keep the lights on all night.
That day he was revising her article in the hall as usual.
"This sentence could be written like this. While it's understandable, the overly exaggerated rhetoric makes it seem inappropriate. The emphasis is on simplicity and clarity. And this sentence..."
"You don't think I'm stupid, do you?"
"How could that be? You're very smart. It's already very good that you can write like this for the first time. Rhetoric is secondary. What's important is that the idea is good. But, there's no need to embarrass yourself like this. I know you don't like this. Just keep writing what you're good at."
"I don't want to. You see, he always says such harsh things. I want to show him that I can write better than him."
He laughed and said, "Don't keep calling him 'Lao You'. It sounds weird. He's the same age as me, so what do you call me?"
Wang Jiazhi couldn't help laughing and said, "You're old now, so of course people call you 'Old Yi'."
As he said this, he burst into laughter at his desk.
He couldn't help laughing, but there was helplessness and embarrassment in that smile, as if he couldn't imagine what it would be like when he was old. It was obvious that he was very resistant to this title.
She laughed and said, "Anyway, I'm old, and no one will ever call me 'Old Wang'."
They stopped laughing, and he said, "Why make things difficult for yourself because of him? Life shouldn't be spent doing things you don't like."
“I just need to publish an article.”
Since she insisted like this, he could only let her do as she pleased.
She then wrote four more articles, and after he reviewed them, he found two that were usable and well written, so he sent them out together.
Wang Jiazhi gradually felt that the writing style of editorials was easy to master after learning. The key was to understand the theory. If one had a thorough understanding, it would not be difficult to write any number of articles.
Gradually, she became the main force here, able to write for both sections, and received very good feedback from readers, which made her very excited.
After writing so much, she could not help but speak fluently, with the tone of a politician. This made her feel very scared. After trying for a long time, she couldn't help but let out a sentence or two.
He laughed and said, "You don't seem to like this change."
She said helplessly, "I'm not used to myself now. It seems like I'm speaking in official language." She shook her head.
No matter how big or small the matter in the group was, he would formally ask for people's opinions. But this time, when they met for the first time, although he did not say everything, she herself did not understand, but others knew that he had clearly agreed to her joining.
He made the decision on such a big matter in less than twenty minutes, which was uncharacteristic of him. Of course, everyone felt a little uncomfortable with Wang Jiazhi.
However, she had the team leader to protect her, and she was so energetic that even those who were jealous and dissatisfied couldn't do anything about it.
