Chapter 46

"I... from my publishing house, I'm here to send you a sample book." Xu Xiyuan was so excited that she couldn't speak clearly.

Upon hearing that it was her own biography, Yang Manyu came to her senses: "Oh, so soon?"

"Your book is a special case. We worked overtime to produce a sample book." As he spoke, Xu Xiyuan handed over the book. On the cover was "Those Men I Experienced: Memoirs of Yang Manyu".

Yang Manyu flipped through it and looked at it: "Not bad, not bad, the printing is quite beautiful. How many copies are printed?"

"Miss Yang, it's up to you." Xu Xiyuan smiled apologetically.

Yang Manyu twisted her face and asked, "It's up to me? What do you mean?"

"Didn't you say that you can buy more books? If you buy more, we will print more."

"Then how much should I buy?"

Xu Xiyuan hesitated for a while: "Five...five or six thousand?"

Yang Manyu interrupted her: "I'll buy [-] copies, is that enough?"

This number was completely beyond her expectation, Xu Xiyuan smiled and said, "Enough, enough!"

"That's it."

"Okay, thank you, I'll go first." Xu Xiyuan nodded and left.

Without raising her head, Yang Manyu picked up her mobile phone.She dialed the phone and said coquettishly: "Hey—godfather—my book is about to be printed, and I have so many fans, I have to give it away one by one—people support me, how can I forget them Well, don’t you think it’s right?... If you buy [-] to [-] copies, you’ll support me..."

Liang Hongming came to Beijing on a business trip to participate in the "International Symposium on the History of Ancient Chinese Thought".He came out of Beijing South Railway Station with a suit and leather shoes and luggage, and took a taxi.Taxi running on the road in Beijing, Bird's Nest, Water Cube, CCTV's new site, Jianguomen CBD... Liang Hongming looked at the familiar scenery outside the window, lived here with Zou Qin back then, and was forced to leave. come to mind.

Finally, the taxi drove to a resort with a banner "International Symposium on the History of Ancient Chinese Thought" hanging at the door.Liang Hongming got out of the car, took the suitcase, tidied his clothes, and walked into the gate.

In the conference hall of the academic annual meeting, scholars entered the venue one after another.

A well-known scholar Li Lan spoke on stage, with a lot of terminology in his mouth: "We have entered a misunderstanding in the interpretation of traditional Chinese culture, misunderstanding! What misunderstanding? It is a misunderstanding of self-talk and obsession. How to get out of it? What about this misunderstanding? Find another way to attack jade from another mountain!"

The audience was at a loss, and Liang Hongming was dumbfounded.

Li Lan said triumphantly: "Methodology, methodology is the key! I have recently tried the method of combining Chinese and Western, learning from the West and using the East. Speaking and irony, to interpret classical Chinese poetry."

Liang Hongming looked at Li Lan who continued to perform with a look of contempt. He took out a pen and wrote two words on the manuscript paper: nonsense.

After Li Lan's speech, the host said, "Next, I would like to invite Liang Hongming, associate professor of the Chinese Department of Huizhou Normal University, to speak on stage."

After taking the stage, Liang Hongming said: "I, Liang Hongming, am a newcomer in the academic circle. It should be said that this is the first time I have participated in such a large-scale academic conference. I came here with a sincere attitude of learning. But everyone, now I am I can honestly say that after I came, I was disappointed, and disappointed!"

Everyone didn't expect such a stunned young man to come up, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Excuse me, are we holding an academic meeting? This is like a vegetable market, where there are people doing everything, sleeping and making phone calls, and completely ignoring the teacher who is speaking. Of course, those who sleep can be forgiven , To put something offending, the speeches of the previous teachers were indeed hypnotic enough, and I pinched my nose to hold back so that I did not fall asleep." Liang Hongming's words were like a blade, scraping the faces of everyone present. superior.

Li Lan, who was below, glared at this unknown guy.

"However, having said that, since you are here for the meeting, the school will reimburse you for your travel and accommodation expenses, and the conference affairs group will also arrange for you to visit the Great Wall of the Forbidden City. Everyone must come with some sincerity, right!? The third speaker just now That teacher, the original text you quoted is wrong, what is there to prove? The fifth teacher who spoke, the point of view in your article was put forward by scholars as early as ten years ago, we can’t take this as our own I have never heard of Professor Li Lan's high-level theory. If you follow your theory of attacking jade from other mountains, Chinese traditional culture can be studied by Westerners who can't even read Chinese. What do people do?!" Liang Hongming burst into bullets, causing the previous speakers to be shot one after another.

Li Lan was so angry that she couldn't sit still anymore, she was a little out of breath: "Liang Hongming, you are too arrogant!"

Liang Hongming looked at him, and said without giving in at all: "Mr. Li, you don't have to get angry. What I said today is definitely not aimed at anyone, but an academic conference is held in such a way. I think that if things go on like this, it will be very difficult for you to lose your temper." Our subject can be brought to an end."

Another teacher in the audience stood up and said, "Liang Hongming, no matter what we say, when we engage in ancient literature, we pay attention to 'moderation' and 'convincing people with virtue'. If you have any opinions, you can communicate in private. Come to the meeting place and make a big noise, what's the proper way? If it spreads out, don't other disciplines laugh it off?"

Liang Hongming looked at the teacher and said, "Teacher, I was really presumptuous today, and I'm here to say sorry. If my speech made some people uncomfortable, I apologize. But my point of view, I still insist. I remember Mencius said a sentence: Honesty is the way of heaven; thinking of sincerity is the way of man. A scholar, no matter how advanced his knowledge, must at least tell the truth and the minimum of humanity .My speech is over, thank you."

Liang Hongming stepped off the stage under the attention of everyone, and walked out of the venue.

That is, at the annual academic meeting, Liang Hongming accidentally saw Yang Manyu's eclectic biography, and was ridiculed by his colleagues. He immediately realized what was wrong. After returning from Beijing, he immediately Found Xu Xiyuan.

Liang Hongming put Yang Manyu's book on Xu Xiyuan's desk: "Editor Xu, explain to me what's going on?"

"Editor Liang, have you seen this book? Ha, let me tell you, I didn't expect this book to sell very well now. Let's..." Xu Xiyuan felt that the situation was not good, and she dodged carefully .

"Stop, I'm asking you what's going on with this book?" Liang Hongming, unaffected by her Tai Chi pushing hands, asked for the truth directly.

"Listen to my explanation." Seeing his expression, Xu Xiyuan knew that it was not easy to get out today.

Liang Hongming sat down: "Okay, I'll see what you can explain today."

"It's really wrong for me to publish a book without telling you, but I'm also in the arena, and I can't help myself. There is nothing I can do. The author of this book was introduced by Teacher Sun Xudong, and I also follow the instructions of the leader." Xu Xiyuan I had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Leader, let me ask you who is your leader? I, I, Liang Hongming, are your direct leader. Don't use Sun Xudong to suppress me. Even if the Emperor Laozi comes, you can't publish trash books without taste." There was no room for negotiation in Liang Hongming's tone.

"Everyone publishes this kind of book now, if you don't publish it, others will too." Xu Xiyuan continued to challenge, testing Liang Hongming's bottom line.

I didn't expect Xu Xiyuan to be so righteous when she did something wrong. Liang Hongming shouted: "This time, our publishing house has lost all face. Just this book, the little word of mouth that our book department has managed to build up. Totally ruined."

Xu Xiyuan muttered, "What's the matter?"

"Editor Xu, you'd better tell the truth, did you take Yang Manyu's money?" Liang Hong was so angry that he slammed the table.

"What are you talking about, I...I..."

"Don't tell me yet? If the higher-ups investigate in the future, you won't be able to walk around."

"I got a little publishing funding, not much, and many people got it."

"Did you really take it? Editor Xu, editor Xu, you are accepting bribes and reselling ISBNs. Do you know that you will be sentenced?" Liang Hongming couldn't believe that the matter had really developed to such a serious point.

"It's not me who took it alone, you too...you took it too." Xu Xiyuan made the most powerful move.

"Nonsense!" Liang Hongming was furious.

"At this time, I won't hide it from you anymore...I'll give you the money, my lover." Xu Xiyuan continued with a nonchalant expression.

Liang Hongming turned pale with shock: "What? You gave it to Zou Qin?"

"Yes."

"She took it?" He still couldn't believe it.

"What can I say if I don't charge it?"

Liang Hongming gritted his teeth and took a deep breath.

"Editor Liang, this is not a big deal at all. Don't make a fuss about it, can't you do it well? Let's make a fortune in silence, how good?"

"What a fart, do you think this is just a joke? Xu Xiyuan, you are so insidious. In order to drag me into trouble, you actually went to give money to Zou Qin." Liang Hongming pointed at her face and taught her a lesson.

"Isn't this good for everyone..."

"Hmph, you...you...have you to look at." Liang Hongming immediately left the office and went directly to the school hospital.He came to the department where Zou Qin worked, pulled Zou Qin who was working into the corridor, and asked, "Let me ask you, did you take money from Xu Xiyuan?"

Unexpectedly, Liang Hongming would ask such a question when they met. Zou Qin was taken aback: "Ah, what money? No."

Liang Hongming roared: "Stop pretending, what time is it, still acting!"

"Let's go back and talk, go back and talk, there are so many people here, why are you shouting?" Zou Qin was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so she carefully lowered her voice to talk to him.

"You still know how to lose face. You are here to say it today, and no one is allowed to leave unless you make it clear!" Liang Hongming was already out of anger, and he didn't care about it at all.

At this time, Liu Qiao and several nurses came out after hearing the sound, and it seemed lively.Chen Jie also came out of the dean's office.Embarrassed, Zou Qin walked to the corner of the stairs and was followed by Liang Hongming.

"I didn't ask for it. She forced it on me. She said it was your review fee." Zou Qin was still defending.

"Zou Qin, are you a three-year-old child? She doesn't give me my manuscript review fee, but goes around seven or eight miles to give it to you. Can that money be clean money? Your hands are really strong, and you can take any money." Dare to take it." Liang Hongming was almost pissed off by these two women today.

"The manuscript review fee, if there is anything unclean, everyone will take it. You are the only one who is upright, so you don't want to wrong people." Zou Qin was so wronged that she didn't want to look at him any more.

Liang Hongming said loudly: "If I wrong you, my surname is not Liang, I tell you Zou Qin, I limit you to return the money to me tomorrow morning, I don't care what method you use, you must return the money go back."
