Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 360 Is this what you are talking about?

"Zhang Zhong, how's the progress of the book about rural life that you mentioned in Yanjing last time?" Zhuang Yu asked suddenly as the group walked to the foot of the mountain park.

The book he was talking about about rural life was The Ordinary World, which Zhang Zhong briefly mentioned when he went to Yenching University to participate in an exchange meeting last time.

"It's almost time to write." Zhang Zhong said.

"Is it convenient to disclose what it is about?" Zhuang Yu asked.

Zhang Zhong said, "There is nothing I can't reveal, but I just wrote some ordinary urban and rural life. If I summarize it in such a simple way, it sounds boring to you. I think it's better to wait until the book comes out."

Liu Yuan smiled, "You still want us to contribute sales to you?"

Zhang Zhong said: "If Mr. Liu is reluctant, I will give you a few copies later."

"Well, I'll buy it myself, I can still afford a book." Liu Yuan looked at the park full of flowers and said with a smile, "Zhang Zhong, no school has invited you to an exchange meeting recently, or Do you want to visit?"

"Yes, didn't I go to Jinling University before?" Zhang Chong replied.

"That's not what I'm talking about. Didn't anyone invite you after you came back from Jinling University?" Liu Yuan shifted his gaze from the flowers to Zhang Zhong, while Zhuang Yu and Wang Yi were also looking at him.

Zhang Zhong thought for a while and said, "There should be, but they all contacted my agent. He seemed to have mentioned it to me, and it probably wasn't a prestigious school, so he simply refused at that time."

Chen Qing did tell him before that there were some schools that invited him over, whether it was to participate in exchange meetings, visits, or part-time substitute teachers, they were all less famous schools, and the best ones were similar to Jiangyang University look.

Zhang Zhong's answer was also very realistic, he simply refused because he was not a prestigious school.

Zhuang Yu said with a smile, "I suggest you find some time and pick up a few good schools to accept their invitation."

Zhang Zhong raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you say that?"

Zhuang Yu shook his head, "I'm not sure about the details, but recently many schools are launching this kind of exchange meeting, which gives people a feeling of undercurrents. It's not a bad thing to find a few schools to participate in."

Liu Yuan also said, "Well, consider it a trip, and you don't have to promise too much, just promise one in a month or two."

Zhang Chong still had doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask any more, but nodded and said, "Okay, I'll keep it in mind."

……

Time flies, and it has been more than a month since Zhuang Yu and the others visited Jiangyang, and 2020 is about to pass in the blink of an eye.

During this period of more than a month, Zhang Zhong's life gradually became dull.

"The Adventures of Chunyu Fen", which was originally planned to be released years ago, was delayed for a while because of Zhang Zhong's back and forth revisions, and the release date had to be pushed to New Year's Day in 2021.

During this period, Zhang Zhong also published a book, the collection of fairy tales, but because this collection of fairy tales had already been serialized in "Zero and One" magazine before, and there were no new stories in the booklet, it did not cause much sensation .

The release plan of "The Adventures of Chunyu Fen" has been announced by the company, so readers have been waiting for the arrival of this book during this time.

However, apart from this book, there is another thing that attracts attention on New Year's Day, and that is the award ceremony of the Huaxia Detective Master Award.

Zhang Zhong received two invitations, one for the "fifth grade vegetative" and the other for "Qianye Teng".

When he received these two invitation letters, the winners of the Huaxia Detective Master Award had already been announced.

To people's surprise, this time the Huaxia Detective Master Award actually awarded the novel to "The Devotion of Suspect X".

In fact, it was not surprising that the Huaxia Detective Master Award was awarded to foreigners, after all, it had happened several times before.

The Detective Master Award has always wanted to expand its influence, so the nationality requirements are not high, as long as it is a detective novel published in China that year, it is possible to win the award.

But people are surprised that the author of "The Devotion of Suspect X" is obviously a newcomer, even if he does, he should win a newcomer award.

Even if Zhang Zhong was as strong as last year, he only won one newcomer award. This year, the Huaxia Detective Master Award came to this set, and anyone with a discerning eye will know why.

That's right, among the detective novels released in China in 2020, only "The Devotion of Suspect X" can compete with Zhang Zhong's works a little bit, but readers still think that it should be written by Zhang Zhong in terms of qualifications and work quality. Zhang Zhong took the award.

[I feel sorry for Zhang Zhong, what kind of award is this, don't worry about it. 】

[This trick is a bit vicious, and Zhang Zhong is probably disgusted too. 】

[Cheap little neon. 】

Many people on the Internet are complaining about Zhang Zhong, but there are also some people who hold the opposite opinion.

[To be honest, "The Devotion of Suspect X" deserves its name, and it shouldn't be treated differently just because the other party is a foreigner. 】

[The move of Huaxia Detective Master Award just shows that their award mechanism is very fair. 】

[Zhang Zhong's fans are really disgusting, you can't all award should belong to your master. 】

……

Li Ke looked at the comments on the Internet and smiled in relief.

After the last award, Yu Zuoren no longer served as the chief judge, and Li Ke stepped up.

Li Ke was still a little worried at first, wondering whether this year's award should be awarded to Zhang Zhong.Later, after "The Devotion of Suspect X" came out, he had an idea. Since this book has received so many positive reviews, even if the author is a foreigner, it can help block the public's attention.

Those who hold the opposite opinion are those who have an unsatisfactory life, and the other part are neon readers.

Although these people do not account for the majority, they can be regarded as a considerable force.

It's just that the mouths of these people were blocked after a short while.

Just a few hours after the announcement of the winners, Zhang Zhong updated Weiyu's dynamics.

[Thanks to the Huaxia Detective Master Award for awarding me the award again, but I still have no way to pass this year. 】

Seeing Zhang Zhong's whisper, netizens were a little confused.

Could it be that Zhang Zhong is not in the same time and space as us, he is obviously not on the award list.

The whisper of the Huaxia Detective Master Award also jumped out very quickly, telling Zhang Chong that they did not award him the award in a very "tactful" way.

[I'm afraid that Mr. Zhang Zhong has some misunderstandings. He mistakenly thought that he can win the award with the invitation letter of the award ceremony. 】

Whispering Aite of the Huaxia Detective Master Award featured Zhang Zhong, and included stickers of the winners.

But after that, Zhang Zhong sent another tweet, which also had a picture, with the text: Is this the invitation you are talking about?
