All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

With Yue Wenxuan's psychological counseling, even the introverted Chen Yuemei did not make any mistakes during the examination, and several people passed all physical examinations smoothly.

After passing the physical examination, the next step is to wait for the admission letter, which may take a long time, so everyone can only wait patiently.

During this period, Yue Wenxuan focused most of his energy on writing his first novel.

He tentatively named this novel "Fly High". The background of the novel is the special period when the college entrance examination was resumed. The novel describes the story of three protagonists who overcame hardships to get into college.

The three protagonists come from different families: one is a male educated youth from a cadre family, one is a young woman from an ordinary worker's family, and the other is a young man from a rural family.

When they first met, there were many conflicts between them, but in the end, because of their common ideals, they became good friends who could talk about anything, and with mutual encouragement and help, they were admitted to the same university.

Yue Wenxuan devoted a great deal of energy to the writing of this novel, and it was not until mid-January that he completed the first draft of the novel.

During this process, several people who completed the physical examinations also received admission letters from universities.

Yue Wenxuan's admission letter arrived the first, and the admission result was not surprising: it was the Chinese Department of Peking University that he had been looking forward to.

Yue Ruoyin performed exceptionally well in this exam and was eventually admitted to Beijing University of Peking.

Even Yue Lingxuan was admitted to an undergraduate program at a university. Although the school was a bit ordinary, it was enough to surprise the whole family.

Chen Yuemei was also admitted to an undergraduate program at an ordinary university, and this result made her whole family overjoyed.

Lu Weidang had the worst foundation among the few people. He had never had high expectations for himself, and finally he was admitted to a junior college. Both he and his father were extremely satisfied.

In this era, candidates who can be admitted to university are rare after all. However, the Yue family produced three college students at once, which immediately became big news that shocked the entire family compound.

As the admission letters came in one after another, the threshold of Yue’s house was almost broken down by relatives and friends who came to congratulate them.

In this era, college students are a scarce resource and a source of pride for neighbors. The frequent good news about Yue Wenxuan, Yue Ruoyin, and Yue Lingxuan is like a fresh spring breeze that blows through every corner of the family compound and warms the hearts of every young person who longs to go to college.

Yue Wenxuan had just received his admission letter. After hearing the news, Aunt Zhao, who lived across the street, walked into the Yue family's home with a big smile on her face, holding a freshly-made sugar cake in one hand and holding her little grandson in the other.

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Wenxuan, you are the first one in our family compound to be admitted to the Chinese Department of Peking University. This is the dream of many students!
When your mother gets off work later and hears this news, she will be so happy!"

There was a hint of emotion and envy in Aunt Zhao's words, and she poured out all kinds of compliments as if they were free.

Yue Wenxuan chatted with her for a while and quickly asked her why she came. It turned out that Aunt Zhao wanted her review materials.

After all, they were neighbors next door and they had been getting along well for many years, so Yue Wenxuan did not refuse. He found all the review materials he had used and gave them all to Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao's youngest son was still working in the countryside, and he also took the college entrance examination this year, but unfortunately he failed. Aunt Zhao had no way to bring her youngest son back to the city, and her only hope was that he would be admitted to university, so she treasured the review materials given by Yue Wenxuan.

After getting the things, there was another round of sincere gratitude.

After Yue Lingxuan and Yue Ruoyin received their admission letters, the Yue family suddenly became the envy of everyone in the family compound.

Since the college entrance examination is approaching the end of the year, the registration time for the college entrance examination is postponed to February or March of the following year.

Yue Wenxuan's first novel, "Spread Your Wings and Fly High", was published in the second issue of "People's Literature".

Originally, Yue Wenxuan thought that even if People's Literature was willing to publish his novel, it would probably have to be published separately, after all, the number of words in each issue of People's Literature was limited.

It is also for this reason that People's Literature generally does not publish novels, so as to avoid taking up too much space.

But after reading the novel, Editor-in-Chief Zhang felt that it was very well-written and finally decided to publish the entire text at once.

This is undoubtedly a great honor, something that Yue Wenxuan himself did not expect.

This is the fourth novel published by Yue Wenxuan in "People's Literature". Once it was published, it caused a sensation among readers.

Although Yue Wenxuan is still a young writer, his popularity in the literary and art circles and among the general public is no less than that of some famous old writers.

The reason why he is so famous is not only because of his good writing, but most importantly because of the broadcasts by China National Radio.

After all, the circulation of People's Literature is limited, but the broadcasts of China National Radio are aimed at people all over the country. Since his several novels were recorded and broadcast, they have been loved by people all over the country as soon as they were broadcast.

The novel "Fly High" was also favored by Director Guo Peng of China National Radio. After he read the manuscript, he arranged for it to be recorded.

With Yue Wenxuan's suggestion and efforts, the novel was scheduled to be broadcast on China National Radio on February 10. This broadcast time was one week later than the release time of People's Literature, and once it was broadcast, it would form a linkage effect.

After the second issue of "People's Literature" in 1978 was officially released, the novel "Spread Your Wings and Fly High" immediately caused a huge sensation among readers.

At this time, the topic of the college entrance examination is a hot topic among the whole nation, and the novel "Fly High" is set against the background of the resumption of the college entrance examination. Coupled with its strong story, it is naturally easy to resonate with people.

In particular, the dozen or so poems in the novel have been loved and praised by a large number of literature lovers.

In this novel, the three protagonists are all poetry lovers. After many conflicts, they became friends because of their common interest in poetry.

Yue Wenxuan incorporated many well-known poems of later generations into this novel in the voices of the three protagonists, including some classic works.

Poems by rural youth include: Wheat Fields in May (published by Haizi in 1989), Love of Life (published by Wang Guozhen in 1986), and Sunflowers in the Sun (published by Mang Ke in 1988).

Poems by female educated youth include: In front of the door (published by Gu Cheng in 1982), Snowman (by Gu Cheng), To see or not to see (published in 2007), First encounter (published by Xi Murong in 1992). Poems by male educated youth include: A flowering tree (published by Xi Murong in 1980), Facing the sea with spring flowers blooming (published by Haizi in 1989), A generation (published by Gu Cheng in 1979).

The impact of the novel after its publication far exceeded Yue Wenxuan's expectations. In this era when information was not yet developed, "Spread Your Wings and Fly High" was like a clear stream, nourishing countless hearts that were eager for knowledge and dreams. It not only caused a sensation in the literary circle, but also aroused ripples among the general public and became a hot topic of discussion after dinner.

The story of "Fly High" has inspired countless young people, especially those students who have just experienced the hardships of the college entrance examination.

They found resonance and hope in this novel, as if they were following in the protagonist's footsteps, striving forward in the ocean of knowledge and sprinting towards their dream of going to college.

The publication of the novel Spread Your Wings and Fly High not only made Yue Wenxuan famous in the literary world, but also stirred up ripples in the hearts of many literature lovers. In that era when information was not yet developed, a good work could often spread by word of mouth and quickly become a hot topic on the streets.

People are amazed at the writer Wenxuan's delicate portrayal of the characters and his accurate capture of the social outlook during the period of the resumption of the college entrance examination. Especially the poems interspersed in the story are like a clear spring, nourishing people's dry hearts.

These poems are not just embellishments in the novel, but also become a bridge connecting the readers with the emotions of the work.

Haizi's "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming", Wang Guozhen's "Love Life", Gu Cheng's "In Front of the Door"... These poems, which originally belonged to only a few literature lovers, have entered thousands of households through Yue Wenxuan's clever arrangement, inspiring countless people's love and yearning for life.

With the promotion of China National Radio, the influence of "Fly High" has transcended geographical limitations and has become the common spiritual food for people across the country.

Every night, the familiar and warm voices can be heard from the radios in thousands of households, telling the struggles of the three protagonists and the poems that touch the heart. People sit together, listen and discuss, as if they have become a part of the story, experiencing those days of laughter and tears with the protagonists.

Yue Wenxuan's success not only won him honor and respect, but also brought a positive force to countless candidates who aspire to enter college.

With his writing, he awakened people's yearning and pursuit for a better life, and inspired every soul unwilling to be mediocre to bravely pursue their dreams.

"Fly High" is like a bright light, illuminating the way forward for countless people, inspiring those who come after them to keep moving forward and bravely pursue their own sky.

While "Fly High" was still being aired and hotly discussed, the day to report to university finally arrived.

Recently, Yue Wenxuan has been thinking about whether to register. In the end, he decided to register, but his purpose was just to meet the teachers of the school, but he did not plan to enroll.

At this time, you can already register for the postgraduate entrance examination. With his current level of knowledge, there is no need to waste four years in undergraduate studies. It is more suitable for his current situation to directly apply for postgraduate study.

1978年1月10日，教育部发出《关于高等学校1978年研究生招生工作安排意见》，决定将1977、1978两年招收研究生合并进行，统称为1978届研究生。

Unlike the college entrance examination, the resumption of graduate admissions also completely changed the admissions rules, from non-public and non-unified admissions to public and unified admissions like the college entrance examination.

It pioneered a domestic postgraduate entrance examination system for people with equivalent academic qualifications. Candidates like Yue Wenxuan who do not have a bachelor's degree can still apply for the exam in the name of equivalent academic qualifications, thus providing a path to postgraduate study for self-taught people.

As for the age limit for applying, it has been relaxed to 40 years old.

The graduate admissions arrangements are being implemented quickly. Registration is scheduled to be completed in February, admission tickets will be issued in March, and the national unified examination will be held on May 2.

Since the college entrance examination and the postgraduate entrance examination are too close to each other, many people take these two examinations consecutively. Yue Wenxuan's decision is not an isolated case.

After making this decision, Yue Wenxuan did not intend to discuss it with his parents.

Because he knew very well that his parents would definitely not support his decision and would only advise him to be cautious.

He was very clear about his own level, but he had no way of making his parents understand this, so he simply didn't discuss it with them.

He planned to hide this matter from his parents, but he certainly would not hide it from Wen Xiaoqing, because he wanted to persuade Wen Xiaoqing to take the postgraduate entrance examination with him.

In addition to Wen Xiaoqing, he planned to bring Lu Songlin along as well. After all, this was a rare opportunity, and no matter whether he could pass the exam or not, he should give it a try.

After lunch, he called Lu Songlin and Wen Xiaoqing to his office.

After letting the two sit down, he asked straight to the point: "Have you two ever heard of the graduate student recruitment?"

Lu Songlin said: "I don't know much, only the information publicly reported in the newspapers. Do you know any confidential information?"

"I am an ordinary person like you, how could I know any confidential information?

The reason I ask this question is that after careful consideration, I decided to take this postgraduate examination.

I suggest you two give it a try, as long as you can find the major you are good at and find the right study materials, you may have a chance of passing the exam." Yue Wenxuan directly stated his purpose.

"You are so bold. We haven't even been to college yet, and you are actually thinking of applying for graduate school. How is that possible?" Wen Xiaoqing was very surprised. "Didn't you go to college?"

“Although I have never been to university, when it comes to professional knowledge in literature, I think I am no worse than college graduates.

I am not blindly confident, but I have read a lot of literature books for undergraduates. If I take the postgraduate entrance examination this time, I think I have a good chance of passing it. "

Now is not the time to be modest, Yue Wenxuan speaks the truth.

Before the college entrance examination, Wen Xiaoqing and Lu Songlin had both received tutoring from Yue Wenxuan. They were well aware of Yue Wenxuan's extensive knowledge. Although they were shocked by his decision, they did not doubt his ability.

Wen Xiaoqing said: "Hearing what you said, I am quite confident that you can take the postgraduate entrance examination."
