Reborn Cultural Empire

() "This is the first step of the Long March. You are so excited. If you are rejected by the time, what do you think everyone thinks? Isn't it just a blow to the enthusiasm of the employees?"

"Hehe, I'm so happy too. Drifter" Zhao Shuren was a little embarrassed that he didn't have the composure of a child yet. After a little embarrassment, the old face couldn't wait to reveal some other details that he hadn't had time to say: " Random House said that this time your book has great hopes of winning an award. Originally, the sales volume in Britain has been relatively flat, because it is a book by our Chinese author, so it is very calm, but as soon as this nomination comes out, " The sales volume of "Soil Pimple"...how can I say it? It has surged in an instant! This is the recognition of readers, you know? With this kind of market reputation, it is said that those reviewers also have to consider the chapters of the novel at their discretion."

Yang nodded a little, but it would not be too much to dampen the old master's excitement, even if he accepted his congratulations: "Depending on the situation, I am lucky to win and lose my life, so there is no need to pay too much attention. As long as the market responds well That's fine. Grandpa Zhao, don't announce this matter, at least wait until the results of the re-election come out."

Zhao Shuren could understand Yang Yi's cautiousness, so he nodded and agreed, but looking at his flushed face, it was obviously not so easy to calm down.

Sending Zhao Shuren away, Yang Yi is also thinking about the impact of this matter on Yang Yi's culture. It's fine if he doesn't win the prize in the end, but what if the historical trend is messed up by him, so that he finally wins the Booker Prize? , then there is no doubt that there is still a faint shadow of yin hanging over the Yangyi culture.It will eventually go away, even if there are still people who are not forgiving.But the general environment at that time will not allow these negative voices to exist.In general.There are hundreds of benefits and no harm.

It's just that he still can't figure out why he was nominated for the Booker Prize.The cooperation with Random House is only a very small proportion of positive factors, and considering Britain's policies and attitudes towards China, it has always been cautious and even targeted, and there is a bbc over there whose mission is to slander China On TV, Yang Yi always felt that it was unimaginable that his book "Soil Pimple" could be nominated.

In the end, the news was just to inform Rogo.Although the others heard some rumors, under the dual control of Yang Yi and Fatty Luo, the editors in the editorial department who knew about this matter were all given a gag order.

After sending the script to Su Wan's place in the afternoon, and spending a peaceful two-person time with the girl, he planned to have dinner there, but suddenly received a call from his uncle.

"Xiaoyi, do you have time now? Hurry up and go back to your hometown. Someone has come to our Xizhi to make trouble again."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Yi almost didn't need to think about it, and guessed that it was another moth made by Minghui Group.After returning to Yuezhou a few days ago, Rogo told me what happened that day.He told him everything, and the two went to Ji Tangdan's house specifically for this matter, and thanked the old couple once.Naturally, I did not forget the old experts who followed Zhai Yunfang to Xizhi to open up the eyes of the ancient town and the residents of the ancient town.It's just that they didn't expect Minghui Group to go to Guzhen to make trouble again in less than a week.

After comforting my uncle a few words.As soon as Yang hung up the phone, Rogo also called.He is now the partner and the only second shareholder of Yangyi Culture, and he is also the general manager of Yangyi Tourism. Naturally, he is indispensable for this kind of thing.

Soon, Rogo arrived under the building, and then brought the company's current legal counsel, and the group drove straight to Xizhi Ancient Town.

When we arrived at the town, it was already dark, but the residents of the town still separated some young and middle-aged people to block under the archway at the entrance of the town to prevent Minghui Group from secretly driving construction machinery into the ancient town in the middle of the night. , Taking advantage of the middle of the night to come to construction.When Yang Yi and Rogo got out of the car, they saw the two groups of people confronting each other without giving in. The scene was as chaotic as a vegetable market, and a harsh swear word was heard from time to time.

This time Yang Yi didn't show up, and the people of Minghui Group wouldn't look at a child differently because of his achievements in writing, so as to listen to advice, or be frightened by him.It was Rogo who was negotiating with the Minghui Group. I saw that the fat man stood in front of a few people who looked like engineering managers, helping the old people in the town to argue with reason, and from time to time he said, "Your boss! I also know the background", "Don't think that I have nothing to do with" and other threats.

And Yang Yi came to a group of relatives, explained to his elders and comforted him: "Don't worry, cousin, the problem here will be solved soon, and their Minghui Group won't last long."

There is a reason why the young man said this. In his previous life, Xiao Guotao, the boss of Minghui Group, did not end well. Fu high-level officials were furious, and directly dispatched police officers composed of the Public Security Commission for Disciplinary Inspection and the Procuratorate, and took down the relevant personnel involved in which project in one fell swoop.Later, in the process of investigation, many people in the Yuezhou government were also involved, and some people were shuanggui, and even many department-level officials were finally thrown into prison.And after these officials fell, Minghui Group naturally lost its protective umbrella, and was seized logically. It is said that the property returned to Xiao Guotao's immediate family members in the end was less than one percent of the entire Minghui Group's industry.In the evidence collection against Xiao Guotao, the public security department also obtained a series of evidence that the boss bribed local officials.

Although it can be regarded as a big local news, but it is not within the scope of Yang Yi's concern in nature, the young man still remembers such emotions, and it is only because of the problem of newspaper layout that Yang Yi took it from his colleagues in his previous life. After arriving at the newspaper, the first line of words that came into view after reading the headline was the deliberate typesetting of the reporter who wrote this report: Yang Moumou, male, 47 years old, from the Policy, Regulation and Monitoring Section of Yuezhou Land and Resources Bureau (Administrative Approval Section) section chief, on November 1998, 11, he accepted a bribe of 11 yuan...

That report was obviously aimed at attracting attention, so it did not explain the cause and effect of the incident at the beginning, but listed the relevant officials involved in the case one by one.And the Double 11, which is called Singles' Day in later generations, plus the name of the first bribery.This made Yang Yi remember very clearly.If not, how could he be 12 confident in the face of Ming Fai Group's overtures and not be moved?

Listen to what Yang Yi said.The confidence of those relatives has improved a lot, and his second cousin stared at Minghui Group angrily, without concealing his hatred: "As long as Xiaoyi can guarantee it, then we have confidence No one in the town is afraid of the Minghui Group, so what if they are a big group? The big group can cheat and occupy the collective land? Not to mention a construction team, even if they pull everyone over, See if our Xizhi is easy to bully! The key is to worry about the problems of the government. You also know that there is a saying that if the people don’t fight with the government, no matter how powerful we are. We can’t stand the police coming and saying you are Gathering crowds to fight and disrupt law and order. So as long as you solve this problem, don’t worry about the rest. If you can’t even keep your own home, what face do we have to come to see you and the experts who restore the town.”

Uncle Yang Yibiao's words obviously represent the thoughts of most people. They are not afraid of Minghui Group, but they are only worried about the collusion between government and businessmen, and they will be called criminals in the name of government.

"Don't worry. Since I said this, I will never disappoint everyone. Xizhi is our home, and our ancestors have lived here for generations. Why do outsiders come in when they say they want to come in? Besides, Minghui Group only got the project approval. But in terms of land, there is simply insufficient evidence, and even the municipal Land and Resources Bureau cannot dispose of village collective land at will. If we don’t want to sell them, we can’t buy them by force, and we have a reason for this wherever we go.” Yang Yi looked at the people around him. neighbors.Young people are confronting each other in the front, and most of the rest are the older generation: "Everyone, don't fight hard with those generals. Each family should restrain the big brothers and uncles of each family, and don't let them be used by others. To do something irrational. Just wait two more weeks and things will definitely work out."

In fact, Yang Yi couldn't say for sure whether Xiao Guotao would continue to bribe the section chief of the Land and Resources Bureau in two weeks' time. He has tampered with everything beyond recognition, there is no Yangyi culture in history, and there is no another Xizhi that has a new look but is ancient, but now these things have been created by him out of thin air, so he really can't pack it 100% voted.

But even without Xiao Guotao's bribery, he still has other resources that can be used, such as the yearning of the residents of the ancient town for a better life, such as the current Internet layout of Yangyi Culture, and the agreement he reached with Mei Luohua. After the incident, the Dongfang TV director was also outraged at the gangster behavior of Minghui Group and individual officials. Although it was impossible for him to send reporters to cover and expose this incident due to the direct management of the Metropolitan Culture and Broadcasting Department, but Having been in the system for half his life, the director also has his own plan on how to save the country through legal means.

The plan he proposed is to make the rematch of "Super Girl" enter the country. The first episode of the program will be recorded in Xizhi. Since the town provides board, lodging and venue for the program, while Dongfang TV uses program recording to protect the ancient town, it is a win-win situation for everyone to be happy.

With Mei Luohua's suggestion, Yang Yi is naturally determined in his heart, and he doesn't care about the threat of Minghui Group.

At that time, with the appalling ratings of the program, it is inevitable that Xizhi will attract the attention of TV audiences all over the country, and Xizhi, which is under the focus of this kind of attention, is naturally not afraid of someone illegally entering.

Yang Yi's uncle nodded, and his face looked better. After someone told Yang Yi what to say, he took him to visit those old experts who stayed in Xizhi.

When the boy rushed over, the old people arranged in a family hotel were discussing the further maintenance of Xizhi Ancient Town: "Look, Lao Wang, the original drainage system in the town was built during the Republic of China, and it can no longer keep up. The need now, and I think more and more people will travel in the future, this problem will become more prominent. Why don't you ask Xiao Luo to hire some people to do a comprehensive inventory of the groundwater situation in the entire ancient town? , and then install two high-power low-frequency variable-frequency water pumps in places where the water source is sufficient and it is not easy to cause the expansion of nonlinear unloading cracks, this is also for the protection of local water and soil resources..."

Seeing this scene, the reborn young man felt that he would not be easily moved. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude and admiration in his heart. Maybe these old people stayed in Xizhi first from an academic point of view, but their actions, But it really makes this thousand-year-old town better and better.

My own obsession with culture, folks' maintenance of their hometown, and these old experts' dedication to the ancient town, there is no reason not to protect this side of water and soil.
