Plane Small Bookstore [System]

After the fatal blow to Zhong Mengfu, Le Jing didn't pay much attention to her situation.Because he has more important things to do now.

The first is Sang Qing's publishing work.

Sang Qing has completed a series of short stories such as "Metamorphosis", "Judgment" and "The Hunger Artist", while the novels "Judgment" and "Castle" are still pitted!Only half written!As for Kafka's other unfinished novel "The Missing Man", this great lady has not started writing yet.Because of Kafka's untimely death in history, none of his three novels are finished!Not one!

For readers like Le Jing, there is nothing more painful than never seeing the ending of their favorite works!Since fate has allowed him to come to this time and space to meet another Kafka, he must seize the opportunity so that the regrets in history will not repeat themselves.

and so--

"Resign!" He said categorically to Sang Qing, who was paralyzed on the sofa: "You need to devote all your energy to writing!"

In his lifetime, he must see the endings of "The Trial", "The Castle" and "The Missing Man"!

Sang Qing was dumbfounded, and argued, "But how will I live if I don't work?"

Le Jing replied without thinking: "I will support you!"

Sang Qing jumped up from the sofa in a jerk, and looked at Le Jing with a terrified expression, "You...I..." She faltered for a long time and choked out a sentence: "I already have a fiancé!"

Le Jing subconsciously asked: "Which term?"

"Second term." After Sang Qing answered honestly, she realized that Le Jing's expression was rather strange, and she immediately became alert: "What does your expression mean?"

If Sang Qing's love history also copied Kafka, then this second husband is far from her destination.Because of Kafka's avoidance of marriage, he was engaged three times in history and broke off the engagement three times.Speaking of Kafka's love history, Le Jing felt very resentful.Kafka is a love letter maniac!During the five years of dating his first engagement, Kafka wrote her 500 love letters! !And because the lady did not support Kafka's writing career, many of these love letters were Kafka's persuasion and guidance to her.These letters were compiled into a book after Kafka's death and published under the title "Love Letters to Phyllis".The German version of "Love Letters" is 800 pages thick, longer than any of Kafka's novels.

If Kafka could devote his time and energy to his own writing career, then he would not have left so few works to the world, at least he could finish writing those three novels!

"It's nothing." Le Jing waved his hand, and out of a fan filter, he made a scumbag declaration to the reincarnation (?) of his favorite writer: "You just need to enjoy love, it's their business to please you, you Just put all your energy into writing."

Never!don't want!No more love letters!

Now Sang Qing looked at him with a subtle expression, "He...they?"

"It's not important." Le Jing changed the subject: "Anyway, I hope you can resign and concentrate on writing. During this period, I can give you financial support. Of course, it's not free. You will pay back when you have money. Pay me back."

It's easier for Sang Qing to accept that.

Just... "Why are you so nice to me?"

"Because I'm your fan." The young man lowered his brows and looked at her tenderly, with undisguised admiration and admiration in his eyes: "I will try my best to create a suitable writing environment for you, as long as you write well. I'll take care of the rest for you."

Sang Qing was stunned for a moment, and a sincere smile appeared in her eyes little by little: "You are really strange." She smiled and said, "But it's not bad to have fans like you."

"Would you like to be the first reader of my article?" she asked.

Le Jing raised the corner of his mouth and showed a smile that could almost be called bright: "It's my honor."

And Sang Qing's short stories became popular after being compiled into a book, as Le Jing expected, no less than "1984" and "Animal Farm".

Kafka did not have many works during his lifetime, and the only three novels have not yet been completed, but this does not affect his status in the literary world at all.He is recognized as the originator of modernist literature and the pioneer of expressionist literature.So the sensation caused by Sang Qing's works in this time and space can be imagined.After the "Lu Miao Miao fever", there was a burst of "Sangqing fever" in the society.

Chang Song is an admirer of Sang Qing.

He is the president of Xinglinshe, the largest publishing house in China, and he is also a serious literary writer.So he naturally understood the great ideological value contained in Sang Qing's novels.

In Chang Song's view, Sang Qing's novel lacks a clear and overall connotation.Her articles often have obscure themes, fragmented plots, no beginning, no end, no clear time and place, and have a high reading threshold.

After the initial discomfort, Changsong felt the excitement of a large amount of adrenal hormones, like an addict taking drugs with enjoyment, and his whole body had goose bumps with excitement.

This is a whole new way of writing!

Before reading these works, he never knew he could express himself in words like this!He is fascinated by the eternal loneliness embodied in his works.Through the similar characters one after another in the author's works, he seems to have briefly walked into the author's inner world, and felt the unresolvable, intense pain and unknown loneliness deep in her heart like a burning fire. and emptiness.

That was a great, tormented soul.That torture made her, and it will destroy her.

First Lu Miaomiao was born, and now it is Sang Qing.These young monsters are rampaging in the literary world, leaving a mess like a tornado.A few years later, they will definitely have a lot in the history of human culture.And the Bole who discovered them, the manager Le Jing, might leave a mark in the history because of it.

When it comes to Le Jing, he can't help being both envious and admired.It was a man with good luck and great vision.A person who can dig out two bright diamonds from the mud with one hand, why isn't such a talent from their publishing house?

But it shouldn't be too late now.

He rubbed his chin and began to think about how to get Le Jing into their publishing house.

……

Le Jing naturally didn't know that someone was trying to poach him, and he was busy with Xin Yuen's art exhibition at this time.

Thanks to Lejing's persistent promotional efforts, some people with sensitive artistic sense gradually began to gain insights into the value of Xin Yuen's paintings.In the field of art, where people have different opinions, authority can even play the role of leading the trend of the times.After all, compared with that group of people, most ordinary people who have no artistic literacy are just superstitious authorities and copying what others say.As Gustave Le Pen wrote in The Crowd: "There are only two things a crowd can do - add to the cake or add to the cake."

So Le Jing struck while the iron was hot and began to prepare a solo exhibition for Xin Yuen.At that time, he was busy with the pre-arranging work of Xin Yuen's painting exhibition venue.

Then Xin Yuen gave him a surprise.

He brought him another friend—compared with the lonely and paranoid Van Gogh in history, he is too broad to make friends.

This friend is a blond, blue-eyed foreigner who looks very young. He came here because he heard from Xin Yuen about the deeds of Lejing digging Lu Miaomiao and Sang Qing, so he specially brought his debut work to Lejing. Get some professional help.

Le Jing took time out of his busy schedule to open the foreigner's English manuscript, and fell into a long silence the moment he saw the title "Paradise on Earth".Then when he briefly flipped through Chapter 1, his hands couldn't help shaking.

This is the manuscript of Paradise on Earth! !

Fitzgerald fans will kill him for this manuscript!

He raised his head and looked at the foreign young man with a disturbed expression: "...What did you say your name was?"

The young man replied with a pure American accent: "Francis Fitzgerald (Francis Fitzgerald)."

Le Jing took a deep breath and asked hoarsely, "Full name?"

Fitzgerald gave him a strange look, but replied honestly: "Francis David Fitzgerald."

It's not the same as the middle name of Fitzgerald who wrote "The Great Gatsby" in history.For a moment, Le Jing couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or relieved.

But there is no doubt that he is the Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald in history who wrote "Paradise on Earth" and "The Great Gatsby".

Fitzgerald on Earth was only 24 years old when he published his debut novel "Paradise on Earth", and he can be called a genius.And the Fitzgerald of this time and space is now equally young and equally talented.

After guessing that there might be many great masters on earth in this world, Le Jing asked Le Ling to search the world.Famous artists from all over the world such as Maugham, Hemingway, Lu Xun, Mao Dun, Tanizaki Junichiro, etc. have been identified.

What's interesting is that they are all celebrities who lived in the period before and after World War I in the history of the earth.It was also a well-deserved "golden age" in the world's literary world.

After Le Jing finished his work here, he was about to embark on the road to find them.

But apart from those who have already achieved fame or made their mark, Le Jing believes that there are still a large part of them that have not been discovered.And one of them just came to the door.

He patted Xin Yuen's shoulder, and said sincerely: "You are such a treasure boy."

Xin Yuen:? ? ?

"Do you have any friends?" Le Jing looked at him expectantly: "Please introduce them to me!"

Xin Yuen resisted the urge to retreat: "...what are you going to do?"

"What can I do?" Le Jing shrugged: "I just urge them to write, and then help them succeed."

He will definitely help them make better use of their talents and leave more spiritual wealth for the world!

"What do you think of my writing?" Fitzgerald finally couldn't help but interjected and asked.

"Great!" Le Jing praised enthusiastically: "Believe me, this will become a masterpiece in this field!"

Fitzgerald couldn't believe it when he heard the words: "Really?"

"Yes! Please believe me!" Le Jing raised the manuscript in his hand, "You can publish it directly, and it will definitely sell well."

Fitzgerald touched his nose, a little embarrassed: "...that's exactly why I came to you."

"I submitted to the publishing house before, but I was rejected." He looked at Le Jing embarrassedly: "Xin Yuen said that you are an excellent agent, if it was you, you would definitely be able to see my article of value."

"……give it to me."
