The Great Era of Rebirth: 1993

   Chapter 593, do not deliberately pursue, quality (please subscribe!)

  Ms. Gu led the topic: "This kind of top-quality red wine is a very luxurious thing for me. I once drank it with a friend several times, but I never dared to buy it because I couldn't afford it."

   Knowing the purpose of her question, Zhang Xuan is very calm: "I don't care about it, I don't dislike famous brands or luxury goods.

   But don’t pursue it deliberately.

   As long as it's delicious and easy to use, don't tell me in the documentary that I'm hard and simple, or extravagant.

  If I really come across a luxury item I like, I will buy it as long as I can afford it.

   But I'm still used to my previous life, and this will not change. "

  Gu Xin put the red wine back and sat gracefully across from her: "You are very honest, and you also respect pragmatism."

   "Yes, it is."

   As a human being, he has money and status, and naturally he will not be too vain and condescending.

   And even if he accidentally said something wrong, there is still Tao Ge’s bottom line, which must be reviewed layer by layer before playing, so it’s very casual now.

   Gu Xin's eyes fell on him and said, "Actually, before I came, I did a lot of homework for you.

   One of them is to collect photos taken by the media in the past. I was very strange at the time, why you can't find a very valuable dress on you.

   In order not to speculate, I specially asked friends who know clothing to identify it, and the result is that you don’t have a piece of clothing that exceeds 100 yuan. "

   Hearing this, Zhang Xuan lowered his head and looked at himself, and said naturally: "I think it is comfortable to wear this way.

   I've been used to wearing it like this since I was a child, and now I don't want to change anything, and I don't even think about changing it. "

  Gu Xin said: "I can understand, this is called true temperament, living freely and easily,

   In fact, money is an external thing to you now.

   Just like the first time I saw you at the school gate, I felt the restrained talent in your body, and nothing could hide your temperament. "

   Zhang Xuan does not deny this.

  It is said that the environment can support people. I have written and written a lot, and I have made a name for myself. When I get a lot of praise, my temperament and self-confidence will stand up invisibly.

   Sometimes when he looks at himself in the mirror, he will feel dazed. Apart from the same appearance and personality as the previous self, in fact, the temperament is already completely different.

   like a changed person.

  …

   Filming a documentary, the two chatted very casually and very homely.

After the purpose of the study room was achieved, Gu Xin signaled Zhang Xuan to move freely and do things according to his usual daily life.

   Zhang Xuan is also welcome. Immediately out of the study, looking at the watch, it's time to practice boxing every day.

   After tidying up as usual, he began to practice on his own, regardless of the presence of so many people.

  Gu Xin touched the boxing equipment and asked, "Do you practice every day?"

   Zhang Xuan said: "Practice every day."

  Gu Xin asked: "What made you so self-disciplined when you were young?"

   Zhang Xuan replied very casually: "Didn't you say that the body is the capital of the revolution? My writing is very intense and I need a good body to support it.

   In addition, sitting and writing every day can easily lead to obesity. I’m not married yet, and I don’t want to turn myself into a man with a big belly. "

   Gu Xin smiled: "It sounds unbelievable, are you still worried about this?"

   Zhang Xuan replied: "Everyone has a love for beauty."

  Wen Hui, Little Eleven, Zou Qingzhu, although I have known him for a long time, this is the first time I seriously watch him practice boxing.

   Seeing him sweating profusely in less than half an hour, a thought popped into everyone's heart at this moment, and successful people are not easy to follow, they are strict with themselves.

   A small thing can tell a person's character.

  Perseverance, this is the impression label posted by those present to Zhang Xuan.

   After practicing boxing, Zhang Xuan took a shower with a change of clothes, and then wandered around the campus as usual.

  Gu Xin has interviewed many celebrities.

   But this is the first time for such a big writer and rich man, so she directed the film crew with great interest to record every bit of Zhang Xuan.

   After walking around the campus, Zhang Xuan came to the management institute and found an empty classroom to sit by the window.

   Seeing him looking outside in deep thought, Gu Xin, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me, what are you thinking?"

   Zhang Xuan said: "I encountered a little difficulty in writing, so I was thinking."

  Gu Xin looked around the classroom, "Is this always the case? Find a quiet classroom to sit when you have time?"

   "Yes, almost all of them."

   Zhang Xuan said: "I always create expressions in the study that are not conducive to the expression of emotions. It is necessary to change different environments and brains from time to time."

After chatting for a while, Gu Xin asked, "How did you feel when you learned that you won the Hugo Award a while ago?"

   Zhang Xuan said: "I am very happy."

  Gu Xin asked: "Are there any more?"

   Zhang Xuan said: "When I became a fan of science fiction, the Hugo Award was like a star in the sky, I could see it glowing, but I couldn't think of what it could have to do with us?

   So to say that I am now winning the Hugo Award is more or less unreal to me, this cannot be denied.

   However, the "Clockwork Girl" I wrote can be so loved by book fans all over the world, and it seems to be expected to achieve this achievement. "

  Gu Xin asked: "I learned from friends abroad that since I learned that you won the Hugo Award, "Clockwork Girl" has set off a wave of shopping all over the world. What do you think of this?"

   Zhang Xuan replied: "You should know that the Hugo Award has no prize money.

   But it boosted the sales of this book much more than the bonus.

The editor-in-chief of   Penguin Publishing personally called me and told me that "Clockwork Girl" has been firmly occupying the top spot in the book market in various countries this week.

   I think this award seems to have no prize money, but its power cannot be underestimated. "

  Gu Xin asked: "When you were writing science fiction, did the people around you know what you were doing? Did they support you?"

   Zhang Xuan leaned forward with his right hand resting on his chin, and said very comfortably:

   "Don't believe me, when I first started writing science fiction, no one around me was interested in this stuff, and I bluntly couldn't understand it. I couldn't read it."

  Gu Xin asked: "In other words, everyone is not optimistic about its future."

   Zhang Xuan nodded: "That's what it means."

  Gu Xin asked: "But you insisted on writing them. Do you think they will be successful?"

   "Of course, if I don't write it, you may not see this work. As for whether it is successful or not, I didn't think too much about it.

  As a writer, sometimes you can't just think about the market, but how to write this work well?

  What do I mean by writing this work? What does this work express? How to express it? "

  Gu Xin agrees: "This is a very good quality."

   She asked again: "After reading your novels, some people are addicted to the magnificent world you outline, and some people are afraid of the darkness and cruelty you describe.

  People are often amazed at the knowledge of physics, astronomy, and even sociology and psychology that you reveal. "

   Zhang Xuan waved his hand: "It's not like that. Please don't forget, what I write is not science, it's just science fiction."

   He continued: “I have to tell everyone very clearly that I am not a scientist, and I don’t know much about physics, let alone astronomy and astronomy. I’m just a writer full of curiosity.

   The works written by me may still be used by some ordinary readers.

   means that it can inspire their imagination, expand their minds, make them interested in real physics and celestial culture, and then learn more about it.

   I think this is the right mission of science fiction. "

  …

   The two chatted a lot anytime, anywhere…

The    documentary filmed for 5 consecutive days, and the film crew did not ask Zhang Xuan to do anything deliberately.

   Zhang Xuan didn't do anything deliberately. Just read books, practice boxing, go to school after class, and hang out on campus as usual.

   Of course, he basically eats in the cafeteria these days.

  When encountering Shen Fan, Dong Ziyu and the others, they would sit over as usual, terrifying these people.

   "March, thank you for your understanding, thank you for your cooperation, and see you next time." Before leaving, Gu Xin humbly thanked Zhang Xuan.

   "You're welcome." Zhang Xuan replied.

   Then Gu Xin also expressed her gratitude to Du Shuangling for her hospitality.

   Back in the capital, Gu Xin, who was alone, called Tao Ge immediately.

   Tao Ge asked: "Is the documentary finished?"

  Gu Xin said: "Filming is over."

   Tao Ge asked: "How do you feel?"

  Gu Xin said: "The great writer is better than I thought."

   Tao Ge asked: "Have you seen his girlfriend?"

  Gu Xin said: "I see, it's a very nice girl."

   Tao Ge asked: "Did you not take pictures of his girlfriend?"

  Gu Xin said: "I didn't take a picture because of what you said."

  Tao Ge thought for a while and said, "Call me after editing, I'll watch it myself."

   Gu Xin jokingly asked: "So worried about me?"

  Tao Ge said: "It's not a question of whether you are relieved or not, there are some things you don't understand."
