Save the Bachelor of Heaven

   Chapter 1387 1389 [Preparing for the college entrance examination]

  After the release of Xiang Nan's novel, it aroused strong repercussions across the country, which also made his reputation soar, and various honors came one after another. Such as advanced individuals, model workers, youth post experts, outstanding members of the Communist Youth League and so on.

  The National Writers Association and the Musicians Association officially accepted him as a member, and his application for joining the party was also quickly passed, and his political status soared.

  If he hadn’t established the FLAG of [Stay in the front line of production], he would have been transferred to the Writers’ Association, Musicians’ Association or government propaganda department.

   Even so, his status in Yili Food Factory has also been greatly improved. Not only was he promoted to a trade union officer and a member of the party committee, he was also successfully elected as a party representative and was responsible for attending various activities and meetings.

   It is not an exaggeration to say that now even the factory director greets him with a smile and shows courtesy.

  …

  After "Our Field" became popular, Xiang Nan took advantage of the trend and released "My Distant Xiaoqinghe".

   In a semi-autobiographical form, it tells the story of jumping in the queue that year. It focuses on praising the simple and kind farmers, as well as the lofty ambitions of the educated youth fighting against the sky and the earth.

  Because of the popularity of "Our Fields", "My Distant Xiaoqinghe" was naturally popular after its release.

  Not only was "People's Literature" published immediately, but also "People's Daily", "Worker's Daily", and "Youth Daily" successively reprinted it, making Xiang Nan's fire even worse.

  The launch of "My Distant Xiaoqinghe" also made Xiaoqinghe Village in Fangshan District the focus of national attention.

  Secretary Yang was also praised by Xiang Nan like a flower in the book, so he won the favor and praise of the leaders. The secretary of the Xiaoqinghe Revolutionary Committee was transferred to the deputy director of the Liangxiang People's Commune, which was a big jump.

   This also made Secretary Yang very grateful to Xiang Nan. He is thirty-six years old this year. He has no connections and no background. It is really difficult to get promoted to the village.

  It can be said that there is almost a natural barrier between the village level and the township level. No matter how many village officials work hard all their lives, they can't go to the village.

  In "Country Love", Chang Gui, the village head, has first-class political skills, and he subdues Liu Neng, Zhao Si, and Xie Guangkun. But he wanted to go to the village to be the head of the water conservancy station, and it took a lot of effort. It can be seen.

  But now, Secretary Yang has successfully jumped the dragon's gate. Moreover, he is only thirty-six this year, and he is in the prime of life. The chance of climbing up is still very high, and maybe it will be promoted to the county level in the end.

   This made him feel extremely grateful to Xiang Nan.

  …

   Entering the second half of the year, Xiang Nan released the novel "On the Field of Hope", which tells the story of the educated youth in the desert of Saihanba, self-reliance, hard work, and the story of turning the desert into a forest.

  The release of this novel also made the little-known Saihanba the focus of national attention overnight. And the publication of this novel just caters to the "Three North Project Plan" formulated by the central government.

  This plan is being drawn up, and it was originally expected to be implemented in seven or eight years. This novel by Xiang Nan happened to be an outpost and played a very good role in propagating public opinion.

   Therefore, the relevant departments at the higher level vigorously publicized, promoted and supported this novel. Not only have various media reprinted it, People's Publishing House also published it together with "Our Fields" and "My Distant Xiaoqinghe" in a volume.

  Because most of the stories described are the stories of educated youths, it is also known as the "Educated Youth Trilogy".

  The country has the power to move mountains and fill seas. The trilogy has national promotion, so the sales volume can be imagined.

  However, the remuneration system at that time only paid remuneration based on the number of words at one time, and did not pay remuneration for the number of prints. In other words, Xiang Nan's novels are tantamount to being bought out. No matter how many copies are printed, it has nothing to do with him. His remuneration has been paid in one lump sum.

  So Xiang Nan feels regretful. That alone would make him a millionaire this year if he was paid for his print runs.

  However, if the money is gone, it will be gone.

  Compared with a million-dollar royalties, the popularity and influence he has gained now is more precious.

   It can be said that if he participates in politics now, it will not be too difficult to become a high-ranking official in his lifetime.

  …

   Entering August, Xiang Nan has already received news that the country will officially resume the college entrance examination.

  He didn’t hide it like in the play, but immediately told Chunming and Cai Xiaoli, “Chunming and Xiaoli, if you work hard, you may be able to leap into the dragon’s gate.”

   "I just graduated from junior high school, and you told me to go to university?" Chunming smiled awkwardly.

  He is also good at Chinese and history, but he is basically so-so in mathematics, physics, chemistry, politics, geography, etc.

   And it's already August, and it's only three months before the college entrance examination in November. How did he manage to revise in such a short time?

  Cai Xiaoli was also very embarrassed.

  Although she is capable of handling affairs, she has nothing to do with studying.

  Han Chunming is good at two things. She doesn't even have one subject, so it is very difficult to take the college entrance examination.

   "You have to work hard. It can be seen from the fact that the country will resume the college entrance examination. In the future, the more knowledgeable you are, the more popular you will be." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Even if you don't pass the exam this year, you might be able to pass it next year."

  Chunming and Cai Xiaoli both nodded.

  In the past few years, intellectuals were hit a lot, and they even shouted slogans such as "the more knowledge, the more reactionary".

  But judging from the wind direction of the past two years, the good days of intellectuals are obviously coming.

  So, after the two got off work, they both picked up the lost textbooks and worked hard.

  …

   Chunming then secretly told Su Meng the news.

  After Su Meng heard about it, she knew that her chance had come.

  She hasn't found a job in the past two years, and has become a joke in the alley.

  If she can pass the college entrance examination and be admitted to a university, then she can get rid of her shame and let everyone who sees her jokes be slapped in the face.

  Because in this era, college students are the pride of heaven. Not only does it cost nothing to go to school, but there is also a monthly subsidy. And after graduation, distribution is also included. It can be said that if you pass the exam, you will have a solid job.

   Therefore, after hearing the news, she immediately started to study hard and actively prepare for the exam.

  Xiang Nan also put on a posture of preparing for the college entrance examination, and greeted the factory in advance.

  The factory also supported Xiang Nan to go to university.

   On the one hand, Xiang Nan is really talented, and staying in the factory is really worthless; on the other hand, Xiang Nan has been too popular in the past two years, and Yili Food Factory is a small temple that cannot house a big Bodhisattva.

  To be honest, in the past year, Xiang Nan's status in the factory can be said to be very hot, and even the factory manager treats him respectfully. Otherwise, if he starts to write, the factory manager will have to leave.

  So, if Xiang Nan is admitted to university, the factory director will set off firecrackers to celebrate.

  Xiang Nan then resigned from some positions and turned down some unnecessary work. He studied with textbooks when he was free, and took Cai Xiaoli and Han Chunming to review together.
