Chapter 523
September 17, 1988, the day before the opening of the Seoul Olympics.
Early in the morning, hundreds of domestic media simultaneously exposed a blockbuster news "19-year-old Super Big Shot in the Literary World", attracting high attention from the cultural circle and all parties in the country.
Even its influence far exceeded imagination. Not only did it cause a huge stir in the mainland, but it also quickly swept through Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan like a tornado, and had a trend of spreading to the world.
The reason for this is thanks to Li Heng having another identity: legendary musician.
"People's Daily" front-page news headline: "Salute to the 19-year-old Great Writer! Salute to Extraordinary Achievements!"
"China Youth Daily" news headline: "On How a Legendary Writer is Trained?"
"Southern Daily" news headline: "Shocking! The Popular Writer is Only 19!"
"Beijing Daily" news headline: "19-year-old Legendary Writer! 19-year-old Musician!"
"China Daily" news headline: "Li Heng! The Perfect Embodiment of Genius and Sweat!"
"Yangcheng Daily" news headline: "Revealing: How to Slack Off to Become a Flag-bearer in the Contemporary Literary World?"
"Xinmin Evening News" news headline: "19-year-old Mastered the Wealth Code!"
Overnight, the world seemed to have changed, news about Li Heng brushed through major newspapers and morning news.
Li Heng read one newspaper after another quickly, his face flushed with praise, feeling embarrassed.
The four women beside him, Mai Sui, Zhou Shihe, Ye Ning, and Sun Manning, also had a newspaper in hand, their eyes very busy.
"Haha, look at this news, that Jingcheng Lao Wang from Beijing is on the news, crowned with the titles of 'villain' and 'double standard', haha, so satisfying, you turtle bastard, you scolded my dad and me, now it's so satisfying." Sun Manning shared the newspaper in her hand with everyone.
Ye Ning covered her mouth and laughed: "This reporter is too bad, actually adding fuel to the fire and magnifying Li Heng's original words n times, won't Jingcheng Lao Wang from Beijing be so angry that he seeks his own death?"
Li Heng leaned over, and after reading it, he was also in a great mood: "Don't worry, he is a well-known sprayer in the literary world, his psychological quality is very good."
Then he asked Sun Manning: "Manning, did you buy all the newspapers at the newsstand?"
"Do you think I'm stupid, I picked and bought 65 copies, buy all the newspapers at the newsstand, don't I need to eat?"
Saying that, Sun Manning reached out to him: "Reimburse me for the money to buy newspapers, you are incredible now, I reckon after today, the whole country will know that there is a Li Heng at Fudan University."
Li Heng asked: "How much money?"
Sun Manning said: "Just give 100."
Li Heng was speechless: "This is robbery."
"I am robbery, look at the three of them, are they as attentive as me? Ran to buy newspapers early in the morning, I care about you so much, right? Be quick, give me the money, I'm going to buy something delicious and drink back to celebrate." Sun Manning was triumphant.
Li Heng reached into his pocket and took out, didn't count, and stuffed all the remaining money into her hand.
"This is manly, generous!" Getting the money, Sun Manning ran away happily, saying she was going to buy wine and food back, and eat a good meal at noon.
Hearing the footsteps go away, Ye Ning rolled up a book and used it as a microphone to interview Li Heng: "Great writer, from now on, everyone in the world will know you. How does it feel to be a celebrity? Is it very cool?"
Li Heng rolled his eyes, cooperating with the joke: "Not cool at all. Yesterday the money was squeezed dry by Que Xinyan, and the money I got last night was squeezed dry by Manning today. Although I am a celebrity, I am clearly being slaughtered like a pig."
"Dizzy! Just be content, if I were you, I'd be willing to be slaughtered every day." Ye Ning was full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Li Heng said to her: "By the way, Comrade Ye Ning, can I make a request to you?"
Ye Ning asked: "What request."
Li Heng complained: "Your net height is 176.5, can you not wear high heels? Walking out taller than me, I also want face. Besides, girls being so tall like a bamboo, what's good-looking about it?"
Mai Sui and Zhou Shihe smiled at each other.
Ye Ning was very sensitive, instantly straightened her chest: "I don't wear them often, just followed the trend a few times. What? My chest isn't as big as the three of them, but it's not for you to use, and you're still disgusted?"
Zhou Shihe: "..."
Mai Sui: "..."
Li Heng retreated.
He noticed that almost all newspapers specifically highlighted 19 years old, using this age as a key marketing gimmick.
Don't say, everyone loves this set, overnight his name and deeds spread like a virus, the whole country knew that there was an amazing person at Fudan University, named Li Heng, 19 years old, from Shaoshi, Xiangnan.
For a time, many media columns called Fudan University, wanting to contact this popular big writer in the literary world, wanting to conduct an exclusive interview with him, wanting to further explore the stories behind him.
There weren't many people who knew Li Heng, but there weren't few either. Those junior high and high school classmates saw "Li Heng" in the newspaper, or saw "Li Heng" on the morning news, and suddenly didn't even eat breakfast, shocked.
This, this, is this the Li Heng we know?
Damn! This is my classmate!
How did he become so amazing all of a sudden?
Didn't they say he was a musician?
How did he become a big writer again?
For a long time to come, the greeting between those old classmates when they met was: Hey, do you remember that Li Heng in our class? He's so amazing now, he's actually the big writer December!
Beijing.
Song Yu was combing her hair in the dormitory, her best friend in university, Chen Xiaoyu, brought a newspaper in, walked over quickly and pushed her shoulder:
"Song Yu, look at the newspaper quickly, is this your boyfriend Li Heng? How are you so lucky! You have a big writer boyfriend!!!"
Hearing this, before Song Yu had time to look, the dormitory sisters had already swarmed over like a swarm of bees, looking at the main headline and sub-headline of the news, instantly "Wow!" a piece of sound.
Shocking to the extreme!
As a result, after reading the news, the girls in the dormitory all fell silent, looked at each other, and then gathered together to read the news a second time.
After reading it a second time, roommate A covered her little heart and said: "I can't take it anymore! 19 years old! Only 19 years old! I always thought I was amazing to be admitted to Peking University, but compared to him, I found I'm nothing, not even worthy of carrying his shoes."
This remark resonated with the whole dormitory, roommate B asked Song Yu carefully: "The photo in the newspaper is slightly blurry, but it shouldn't be wrong, it's your boyfriend, right?"
At this time, Song Yu finally had time to finish reading the newspaper, facing the eyes of a group of sisters, she was silent for a few seconds, later smoothed the broken hair by her ear with her right hand, and said quietly: "Yes."
Although she knew it was Li Heng long ago, when Song Yu admitted it herself, the whole dormitory was stunned, everyone stood in place, surprised and inexplicable! For a moment, they didn't know what to say?
Even Chen Xiaoyu, who was a local in Beijing and had a particularly awesome family background, couldn't help but feel envious: "Was it him who pursued you, or you who pursued him?"
Song Yu thought for a while and said: "We had a good impression of each other."
Chen Xiaoyu asked: "So, as soon as he proposed wanting you to be his girlfriend, you agreed?"
The roommates all pricked up their ears.
The matter actually wasn't like this, but now that it had come to this, Song Yu naturally had to try her best to maintain Li Heng: "Hmm, almost."
"Hey! Why don't I get a dozen boyfriends like this? If I get a dozen, I won't complain! Look at the photo in the newspaper, so handsome! Eyebrows, eyes, nose are all the types I like! So talented!" Chen Xiaoyu was usually a relatively steady person, but today she broke her defense, the best friend who lived with her day and night, the best friend who ate and went to class with her every day, her boyfriend was actually a hidden literary big shot!
Who could stand this?
Who wouldn't be startled!
A roommate said: "Song Yu, next time your partner comes over, be sure to ask him to treat us to dinner, you picked the most beautiful flower in Peking University, you have to pay some interest, okay."
There is usually a lot of intrigue among girls, but unexpectedly, the whole dormitory had a very good relationship with Song Yu.
This is thanks to Song Yu being beautiful enough, her temperament being good, and her appearance being something the roommates looked up to! Because the gap was too big, the roommates couldn't even feel jealous, so she was very popular.
Another thing is that Song Yu has a Buddhist temperament, she is generous and magnanimous in the process of dealing with everyone, doesn't like to haggle, which led to her being particularly popular.
This is also the reason why Chen Xiaoyu, whose family background is so awesome that she is arrogant, likes to be best friends with her.
Seeing everyone looking at her with expectation, Song Yu clearly understood the gold content and lethality of Li Heng's writer identity among Peking University girls.
She smiled beautifully and said: "Okay, next time he comes over, I'll bring him to meet you."
"Bang" sound!
Just at this time, the dormitory door opened, a girl from the next next room ran in and asked excitedly: "Song Yu, it's spreading everywhere in the school that your partner is that big writer, is it true?"
Alright, this one is even crazier than us, the dormitory sisters instantly found comfort.
Song Yu nodded.
The girl's face was flushed, and she said incoherently: "I am his reader, I started chasing him from "To Live", no, it's chasing "Harvest" magazine, I wrote him many reader letters, he didn't reply to any of them. Song Yu, next time your partner comes over, can you help me sign?"
Saying that, the girl shook the "Cultural Bitter Travel" in her hand, wanting a signature.
Song Yu agreed.
In the morning, because of Li Heng, Song Yu, who already had a great reputation at Peking University, was talked about again.
However, this time she became a foil, everyone was talking about her boyfriend.
Even on the road, many girls would take the initiative to greet her and inquire about her partner's situation.
Even the school teachers heard about it, and would occasionally ask questions in class.
