1978: Female educated youth, don’t want an illiterate husband

Chapter 189 Wait, it will definitely be the front page headline tomorrow (asking for monthly votes)
The bell rang and Cheng Xuemin ended his class today.

Accompanied by thunderous applause from the audience, Cheng Xuemin kept bowing to express his gratitude.

This large class was undoubtedly very successful!
The applause from the audience rose and fell continuously, and countless students in the audience were shouting, saying that he spoke too well and too fast, and hoped that Cheng Xuemin would continue.

There were also students in the audience, constantly asking Cheng Xuemin questions about this and that topic.

Because it was a large classroom and not a real lecture, Director Yang of the Chinese Department did not make much preparation and everything was done hastily, so there was no arrangement for Cheng Xuemin to interact with the student audience.

But now, there are three to five thousand students gathered in the auditorium, and they are reluctant to leave.

Director Yang, as the host, quickly went on stage, took the microphone from Cheng Xuemin, and began to speak into the microphone.

Today's class ends here. The Chinese Department of Yan University will continue to arrange large classes for Teacher Cheng Xuemin in the future. We hope that everyone will be welcome to attend the classes.

Now, please, students and teachers, please leave the auditorium in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the staff.

Students from the Chinese Department and security guards from the school's security department also began to maintain order and guided thousands of people out of the auditorium in an orderly manner.

After leaving the auditorium, there is the vast Yanda campus outside, so there is no need to worry about anything.

"Xuemin, you know what? You scared me to death!"

After finally catching his breath, the department head, Old Yang, took Cheng Xuemin's hand and sighed that it was a false alarm.

"Isn't my speech good?"

Cheng Xuemin came down from the podium, turned around and asked Director Yang with a smile.

How did you scare him to death?

As for?
Cheng Xuemin felt that he was speaking very smoothly on the stage, and before he knew it, more than an hour had passed without even taking a break.

"It's not that I didn't speak well, I was just afraid that you, Xuemin, would really only talk about reform and opening up!"

"Do you know, Xuemin, that we have just alarmed the old principal! He also heard that you were going to talk about reform and opening up, and he was so scared that he came here in person to take charge!"

"At that time, I was even ready to write a self-review with you!"

Director Yang smiled bitterly. He was indeed scared to death and broke into a cold sweat.

"That was Principal Zhou just now, right?"

Cheng Xuemin was stunned when he heard this. Just now when he was giving a lecture on the podium, he did see Director Yang nodding and bowing while talking to an old man.

It is said that Cheng Xuemin was appointed as a specially hired lecturer, but he has never met Principal Zhou, so he does not really know him in person.

"It's Principal Zhou!" Director Yang nodded repeatedly, saying with lingering fear, "Principal Zhou must have heard you were going to talk about reform and opening up, so he came here to supervise you!"

"Fortunately, you, Xuemin, pulled back from the brink and did not really insist on reform and opening up!"

"But Xuemin, you picked a good angle. Shang Yang's reforms were the legacy of the Qin people for six generations. How awesome!"

"President Zhou just said that our department should produce a few influential reviews and send them for publication!"

Director Yang spoke to Cheng Xuemin again.

"I'm just showing off my skills in front of an expert. I'm just giving a casual talk on the stage. Director Yang, you guys don't deserve to mobilize so many people!"

Cheng Xuemin was also surprised after hearing what Director Yang said.

Unexpectedly, President Zhou of Yenching University came in person to listen to his lecture and even supervised their Chinese Department to produce several influential reviews for publication.

Obviously, this is to support Cheng Xuemin and to make today's class a big deal!
Principal Zhou is trying to take this opportunity to help Cheng Xuemin stir up trouble!

"Xuemin, you are too modest!"

"Just now I saw quite a few reporters from newspapers and media, mingling in the crowd and listening to your lecture!"

"Xuemin, wait!"

"tomorrow!"

"Xuemin, you will definitely be on the front page of all the major newspapers tomorrow. It will definitely cause a sensation!"

Director Yang has also been standing behind the scenes on the podium, so he can capture the crowd below and find quite a few familiar faces.

"Director Yang, it's not that serious, is it? There are newspaper reporters coming to listen to my class?"

Cheng Xuemin was stunned when he heard this!
Students from other schools rushed over after hearing the news, thinking they were just chasing stars and coming to attend classes.

The reporters from the newspapers also came along, what are they doing here to join in the fun! ?
If there really are reporters hanging around down there, they might say the same thing to Director Yang. As a pioneer of reform and opening up, he will be on the front page of news again tomorrow and become a hot topic.

"Who told you, Xuemin, that you have such a great influence and appeal?"

"Any open class can attract so many students!"

Director Yang praised Cheng Xuemin again, but in fact it was not just flattery, it was just the truth!
Any random open class would attract three to five thousand students and educated youth who would come to listen to the class. Who could deny such appeal?

"Students!"

Under the guidance of Director Yang, Cheng Xuemin stepped down from the podium, where Feng Jiayou and others were already waiting.

Zhang Dening and Bai Ling from Yenching Literature also came. When they saw Cheng Xuemin, they came forward and greeted him.

"De Ning Bai Ling, you are here too?" Cheng Xuemin was also surprised and greeted them. He thought to himself, no wonder Director Yang was talking about that. He saw many editors and reporters from newspapers and magazines.

"Go back to the office first!"

Director Yang guided everyone that this was not the place to talk, and they should first send Cheng Xuemin out through the side door to the teaching staff passage.

I don’t know how congested the area is at the main entrances on both sides of the auditorium right now.

"Xuemin, you don't talk much at home, but I didn't expect you to be so talkative on the podium. No wonder mom always says you are a shy person!"

This was a rare compliment from the second sister-in-law. In the past, she rarely spoke to her brother-in-law!

Today, I was indeed inspired by the atmosphere and admired my brother-in-law from the bottom of my heart, and also admired her mother-in-law.

People at home say that her brother-in-law Cheng Xuemin doesn't talk much, and her mother-in-law prefers to say that her son-in-law is an introverted type!

Now it seems!

How can this be called a talent? If he were to go on stage and speak, he would talk for more than an hour without even taking a break. Who has ever seen such a cocky and introverted person?
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect that I could speak so much once I got on stage!"

"When I first went up there, my palms were sweating. I was so nervous!"

Cheng Xuemin also responded to his sister-in-law.

Following closely, my sister-in-law Feng Jiamo and my little cousin Qin Xiaolian were also chattering non-stop.

On the other hand, my elder sister and my wife Feng Jiayou were both accompanying me without saying a word, but the joy in their eyes was enough to show that they were very happy. Their husband (brother) should not be too proud to be praised by everyone.

On the way back to the office, Zhang Dening and Bai Ling from Yenching Literature couldn't help but be surprised at how Cheng Xuemin suddenly became a teacher at Yenching University!
Now, not only should Bai Ling, who has never been to college, be envious, but even Zhang Dening, who has been to college, should not be envious either.

This is Yan University!

Moreover, Cheng Xuemin skipped the stage of being a student at Yanda University and directly became a teacher at Yanda University.

When they first heard the news, they were almost shocked.

Then she explained to Cheng Xuemin that the two of them came here with a mission given by their chief editor of Yenching Literature!
The mission was the same as Cheng Xuemin's mother-in-law's October, which was to exclusively reprint Cheng Xuemin's "My Years in the Corps". Cheng Xuemin quietly published "My Years in the Corps" in an unknown magazine. It was said that only 1,000 copies were published, but it directly caused a sensation in all the universities in Yenching.

It even caused a sensation throughout the city of Yanjing and among millions of educated youth returning to the city.

Only 1,000 copies were published, but it generated such a huge response! How could Li Qingquan, who worked on the magazine, not sense what this meant?

and so!
What will it mean if Yenching Literature exclusively reprints Cheng Xuemin's "My Years in the Corps"?
There are only a thousand copies, and it’s still a fake magazine!

It directly touched the hearts of millions of educated youth returning to the city and college students in Yanjing!
If we let Yenching Literature do it and promote it nationwide, how much of a response can it generate?
Just ask, in all major cities across the country, how many educated youth have returned to the city, how many college students are there, and how many have spent the best ten years of their youth on that passionate land?

Millions and millions, millions and millions!
Yenching Literature could not imagine what kind of results Cheng Xuemin's "My Years in the Corps" would achieve once it was published nationwide by Yenching Literature.

of course!

Li Qingquan of Yenching Literature has taken notice, and other magazines and newspapers will not be slow to notice.

Everyone wants to get the exclusive reprint of Cheng Xuemin's "My Years in the Corps", and maybe even People's Literature will get restless.

However, Cheng Xuemin's mother-in-law was standing by and watching him closely, so Cheng Xuemin told Zhang Dening and Bai Ling directly on the spot!

The exclusive reprint of my years in the Corps may be given to his mother-in-law in October.

Now he is just waiting for feedback from his mother-in-law. Anyway, Chen Shumin had already replied to his mother-in-law yesterday about her consent!

When I got to the office, I had to be humble and polite to all my colleagues!
They all went to the auditorium to listen to Cheng Xuemin's lectures, and what he said was basically the same as Director Yang's. They were all really frightened by Cheng Xuemin's "reform and opening up" at the beginning.

"Xuemin, you are still a little too bold! You are using the ancient Qin Dynasty's reform to directly metaphorically represent our current reform and opening up!"

"But your suggestion is very meaningful. I have pondered it over and over again. It seems that if we really want to borrow, then Shang Yang's Reform is the most suitable one for the present situation!"

"If you use other reforms, the opposition will more or less seize upon your weaknesses and fight against you, the scholar!"

The old professor Xie Mian bluntly expressed his views after listening to the lecture, and also directly pointed out Cheng Xuemin's intention in the lecture.

"Mr. Xie, do you also think that what I borrowed is very explicit?"

Cheng Xuemin gave a bitter smile. In fact, the audience were mostly college students who had passed the exam and were trying to pass the exam. Who could not understand Cheng Xuemin's analogy between the past and the present?

It's because I understood it and it made my blood boil that there was such a big response!
Today's college students are still the same as those of decades ago, full of passion and ambition. Most of them will be the main force in the great cause of reform and opening up, and the backbone of the reform and opening up trend in the future!

Therefore, this is also the reason why Cheng Xuemin dared to talk about the fission of the Qin Empire to those college students in the classroom.

Without mentioning a single word about reform and opening up, every word responded to the spirit of reform and opening up and was instilled into thousands of college students in the audience.

This is what Cheng Xuemin, a pioneer who is rooted in Yanda, should say and do.

Instead of returning home to celebrate the New Year, it is unwise to be invited to the county, city, or even the provincial capital to talk about so-called pioneers!

Therefore, during the Chinese New Year, Cheng Xuemin politely declined all invitations from the county and city.

But today, in his first open class at Yanda University, he had this opportunity and changed his previous attitude and spoke at length, and his intention was exactly that.

Pioneer, pioneer, dare to speak, dare to act, dare to be the first in the world, wherever the edge goes, it is invincible!
Perhaps, this is the purpose of writing the inscription for him!
Therefore, the specific response will depend on what is published in tomorrow's newspapers. As for the direction in which it will develop, we will also have to wait and see what is published in tomorrow's newspapers.

Moreover, Mr. Zhou from Yan University has just issued an instruction, asking the writers in their Chinese Department to take action and produce a few influential articles. This shows that they are ready for war.

It didn’t take long!

In October, Liu Xinwu also came to the Chinese Department's staff office. He first greeted all the old professors and teachers, and the person he came to see must be Cheng Xuemin!
It was also mentioned that Cheng Xuemin's mother-in-law also came with him, but they just met his father-in-law, Mr. Feng, in the auditorium and went back together!

This also aroused public opinion in Chengxue!

Today is Saturday, but it is still a working day. My father-in-law and mother-in-law unexpectedly put down their work and came to listen to the class of their son-in-law?

Then I talked to Cheng Xuemin about it again, and was amazed at how good what Cheng Xuemin said was!
"Xuemin, how about you refine the content of today's lecture as soon as possible and I will publish it for you?"

Today's talk on The Splitting of the Great Qin was so good that Liu Xinwu wanted Cheng Xuemin to compile it into an article and publish it in their October magazine, which would surely cause quite a stir.

It is even not inferior to the previous sudden appearance of "The Record of Director Qiao's Taking Office".

"Teacher Liu, you mean that if you publish "The Fission of the Great Qin" in your October issue, then why don't you give our Yenching Literature exclusive reprint of Xuemin's "My Years in the Corps"?"

Upon hearing that Liu Xinwu had asked Cheng Xuemin to write a script about his lecture, Zhang Dening, who was standing next to him, was secretly delighted and quickly interrupted to ask.

Cheng Xuemin had just told her that the exclusive reprint of "My Years in the Corps" had been given to his mother-in-law October, that is, the October of Liu Xinwu in front of him.

But if they publish "The Splitting of the Great Qin" in the October issue, doesn't that mean that "My Years in the Corps" can be given to Yenching Literature?

"That won't do! We've already scheduled the October issue of My Corps Years!"

"I agreed with Xuemin about the manuscript for our next issue in October!"

Liu Xinwu shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly. What a joke! How could I give up my years in the military just like that?

He has already made the decision today that this issue of "My Years in the Corps" will be published in October, but this will not affect his agreement with Cheng Xuemin on the manuscript for the next issue.

Nowadays, Cheng Xuemin, a pioneer, is in great demand and his manuscripts are hard to come by.

If they didn't have a mother-in-law in October, they would have to rank behind Yenching Literature in October when it comes to manuscript commissions!

But now!
Yenching Literature only picks up what they left over in October!
"Then how about Xuemin hurry up and write The Splitting of the Great Qin and give it to us first, Yanjing Literature?!"

"If it's for Teacher Liu, it won't be sent until May!"

This time, Bai Ling blurted out the answer, which instantly made Liu Xinwu's face turn very dark. This girl is a little confused!

It would be fine if her Li Qingquan said that their October magazine was a bimonthly, but now how come a small minion under Li Qingquan dared to talk to him like that?
However, although Liu Xinwu looked unhappy, he was not really angry. Instead, he said with a smile that was not too smug: "Little girl, maybe we don't have to wait until May for October!"

Liu Xinwu almost showed off in front of the girl. They had already submitted their application materials and might get the approval by the end of this month!
A few years ago, Mr. Wu promised that they would upgrade to a monthly publication in October, and it’s basically going to be done!

Originally, their influence in October was indeed a little weak, but they reprinted "The Record of Director Qiao's Taking Office" as soon as possible, and then formed a united front, and their influence soared!

Therefore, they will be promoted from a bimonthly to a monthly in October, and the approval will be given by the end of this month!
"This... Teacher Liu, Dening Bailing, I haven't finished talking about the Great Qin Splitting yet. I plan to write it into a novel when I have time to settle down!"

“So I’m not sure about the exact time of completion!”

They are all eating from the bowl and staring at the pot!
Liu Xinwu has two manuscripts for them to choose from, and the scheduling is just as Bai Ling said, and it will be scheduled until May this year!
Therefore, Cheng Xuemin would definitely not readily agree to his request for an article.

The same goes for Zhang Dening and Bai Ling's Yenching Literature. They haven't published the second half of their long novella yet, but Mr. Li from Renwen Publishing House is still waiting for Cheng Xuemin to publish the book!

So this issue hasn’t even been published yet, why are you in such a hurry for the next one?
Say it again!

There are so many excellent writers in the country, don't just focus on Cheng Xuemin! If you continue to invite works like this, will Cheng Xuemin be able to take a break?
Then he sent away Zhang Dening Bailing and others from Yenching Literature School, and chatted with Liu Xinwu for a while.

After Feng Jiayou finished her last class in the afternoon, Cheng Xuemin took her home!
home!

But there are still two great gods waiting for Cheng Xuemin!

Both my father-in-law and mother-in-law actually went to listen to his lectures, so it is inevitable that what they said would be the same as what Director Yang and the others said!
Especially his father-in-law, Mr. Feng, he has never agreed with Cheng Xuemin being too prominent!

The same goes for today's class. I'm bound to get a scolding from my father-in-law!
"Xuemin, come with me to the study room!"

Sure enough, Feng's father had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When Cheng Xuemin and Feng Jiayou came back, they saw him standing in a daze under the old toon tree that had already sprouted new buds.

When he saw Cheng Xuemin coming back, he invited him into the study without saying a word!
Now that the yard is big, there are several empty rooms in the front yard, so Feng's father built a study in the front yard.

Normally, Cheng Xuemin rarely goes into this study!
But I didn't expect that I would be called into my father-in-law's study in this way!
……

Asking for a monthly ticket!
