the next day.
Wang Mo boarded the plane from Shanghai to the capital, and the only person accompanying him was Yuan Xiong.
Wang Mo didn't seem that excited about this trip to the capital, and everything went as it should.
However, Yuan Xiong showed rare nervousness.
Wang Mo looked amused: "Brother Xiong, you can be considered a seasoned veteran who has been in the entertainment industry for decades. Why are you so embarrassed to meet a professor from Qingbei?"
"You know nothing!"
Yuan Xiong said angrily: "You are ignorant and fearless. As long as you have some common sense and know how to be a big star in the entertainment industry, compared to a literary giant like Mr. He, he is nothing."
A queen or movie king looks glamorous and has tens of millions or even over 100 million fans, but she is still a small person controlled by capital.
And a literary master does not talk about his own energy. Just teaching, he has trained countless students in his life, and the connections behind him are so complex that it is unimaginable. Although they usually don't show off their talents, in terms of influence, they can wipe out a top star in a matter of seconds.
Because of this, both the company and I attach great importance to this trip to Beijing.
If you can gain Mr. He's appreciation and establish a long-term relationship. Enough for you to use for the rest of your life. At least after you return to the entertainment industry, no one will dare to target you easily. "
"oh."
Wang Mo nodded.
At the same time, a heart began to become active: "Since the energy of literati is so great, it seems that I will invest a little more in literature in the future."
I got "100 Modern Poems", but I have only taken out one poem so far, and there are still 99 poems left.
Build it hard!
If you don’t do it, you’ll be sorry for yourself.
…
Beijing.
Both Wang Mo and Yuan Xiong have been here many times, so they are familiar with the roads.
But it was my first time to go to Qingbei College.
Yuan Xiong said: "I won't go next, and I'll leave everything to you. You must remember my words: When facing a senior figure like He Zhixing, don't pretend to be reserved. The best way is to show your self while maintaining the necessary humility and reverence.”
"knew."
Wang Mo looked at Yuan Xiong, his mother-in-law, and although he seemed to dislike him for being verbose, he still felt warm in his heart.
This time I went to visit He Zhixing, and it would definitely not be appropriate for Yuan Xiong to follow him.
So Wang Mo could only go there alone.
After entering the Qingbei campus, Wang Mo's first emotion was that it was great!
After walking inside for almost half an hour, I only finished walking through a small corner of the campus.
The campus has a very strong student atmosphere.
Basically, more than 90% of students ride bicycles to and from class.
Wang Mo did not wear a mask, nor did he deliberately hide his appearance with makeup. But when walking on campus, basically no one paid much attention to him. Except for one or two girls who were attracted by his handsome appearance and took a few more glances, most of the other students regarded him as a complete stranger.
"This is the spiritual outlook that contemporary college students should have."
Wang Mo sighed in his heart.
Not star-struck.
Do not fall.
Be positive, passionate, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and constantly improve yourself.
After asking for directions seven or eight times, Wang Mo finally found Shengyinyuan.
Every building here has the atmosphere of the times, simple, quiet, and full of greenery.
Go to the address given by He Zhixing and ring the doorbell.
After a while, the door opened.
When He Zhixing saw Wang Mo, he smiled brightly: "Here? Come in and sit down."
While changing his shoes, Wang Mo handed over the gift bag in his hand: "Mr. He, I didn't bring any gifts. There is some tea in it. Don't dislike it."
He Zhixing didn't answer: "Go, go, I told you not to take anything with you. Take it back for me!"
Wang Mo smiled and said: "Mr. He, keep it. This is a good thing. It is the authentic Dahongpao that our company spent a lot of effort to obtain. It is not available on the market. Anyway, it is the company that pays for it. If you don't take it, Don’t take it for free. If you ask me to take it back, I won’t be able to taste its goodness, and it will be a pure waste of tea.”
Wang Mo was telling the truth. In order to prepare a gift for He Zhixing, Yuan Xiong had taken great pains this time.
Finally, I found out that He Zhixing liked to drink tea, so he mobilized the company's efforts and finally bought half a catty of Dahongpao.
Yuan Xiong vaguely revealed the value: more than six figures!
"have to!"
Seeing what Wang Mo said, He Zhixing didn't show any pretense and took the tea.
Wang Mo scanned around and found that there was no second person: "Mr. He, are you the only one at home?"
He Zhixing smiled and said: "Yes, everyone else has something to go out."
"..."
Wang Mo hummed in his heart.
We agreed to come to see your granddaughter, but there was no sign of her?
Damn it!
Fortunately, I had specially prepared several sets of signed photos before I came here, thinking of playing the emotional card with He Zhixing's granddaughter. As a result, now I can’t even see anyone.
All your efforts were wasted.
At home, He Zhixing seemed far more easy-going than the last time he met Wang Mo. He did not ask Wang Mo any questions about literature, but chatted cordially about home affairs.
Chatting and chatting.
Wang Mo suddenly remembered something, and he quickly took out a folder from his bag: "Mr. He, during my last live broadcast, a young man said he hoped to become your student. But you no longer accept students, so He wants to ask me to pull the strings and hopes that you will take a look at his academic achievements. If it catches your eye, then give him a chance.
I have seen the other person’s resume. This person’s name is Zhou Ming. He is a master’s student at Fudan University. He has frequently published literary works in major print media since junior high school, and has won several awards for his articles. His literary attainments seem to be pretty good... …”
This is what Wang Mo promised during the last live broadcast.
It was finally brought up at this moment.
He Zhixing let out a sigh, took the folder, put on his reading glasses and read it carefully.
At this glance, it lasted more than half an hour.
at last.
He Zhixing closed the folder with approval on his face: "This Zhou Ming is indeed very good, and he is more than enough to be my student. But I have not taken care of students for three years. So... I will get this information first. Wait, I will show it to a few other old guys in the School of Liberal Arts in two days. If they are willing to accept Tang Ming, that would be great too."
"OK."
Wang Mo nodded.
With this result, I can be considered as fulfilling my original promise.
He Zhixing looked at him with a smile: "Actually, you helped others ask me to recruit students, why didn't you think about yourself? If you want to be my student, I can make an exception for you.
But if you become my student, you can no longer stay in the entertainment industry. You must quit your current company and devote all your attention to literary research. "
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Wang Mo's heart skipped a beat.
Be a student of He Zhixing?
This is definitely a pie in the sky!
But after hearing the second half of the sentence, Wang Mo could only smile helplessly: "Mr. He, you should know my situation. It is impossible for me to withdraw from the entertainment industry. The first is the company's contract issue; the second is that even if there is no contract restriction, My personality also makes it difficult for me to study literature for decades.”
He Zhixing stared at Wang Mo's face and sighed after a long time: "Everyone has his own ambitions, so I won't force you. Originally, I invited you to come to the capital this time to ask if you have any intention to further your studies in literature. If so, I will help you resolve your company's contract. You just need to nod. But now it seems that it is unlikely."
Wang Mo said quickly: "Mr. He, I am disappointed."
At the same time, I was secretly surprised.
It seems that Yuan Xiong is right. For a leader like He Zhixing, the personal connections are too scary.
Actually, as long as he nods, he can help him solve the contract problem.
What energy this is.
It’s incredible to think about.
"Hey!"
He Zhixing patted him on the shoulder: "What's the point of being disappointed? As the saying goes: With three hundred and sixty years of practice, you will be the number one scholar. If you are determined to be in the entertainment industry, as long as you act upright and sit firmly, you can lead the fans to the right path. Let’s go. The positive social effect and impact it will have may be much greater than if you study literature.”
Wang Mo really listened.
He Zhixing continued: "And entertainment stars like you, because they understand literature, can use their influence to better promote literature. For example, the poem you wrote last time, "Facing the Sea, Spring Blossoms," If you don't use the effect of live broadcast, it would be too difficult to have such a big influence. Even we can't do it. So to a certain extent, I am very willing for you to stay in the entertainment industry."
The two of them just chatted.
Wang Mo talks less and listens more.
Until about one o'clock in the afternoon.
He Zhixing stood up, changed into a formal Chinese tunic suit, and then said: "It's better to come early than to come by chance. Let's go, Wang Mo, I will take you to a literary exchange meeting this afternoon."
"Literary exchange meeting?"
Wang Mo said in surprise: "Can I...?"
He Zhixing said: "It's a literary exchange meeting jointly organized by several major universities in Beijing. Such activities happen almost every day in Qingbei. It's nothing. I took you there because I want you to experience the culture of this circle. Atmosphere, I’ll introduce you to a few of my students by the way.”
Wang Mo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
If it is such a small exchange meeting, then it is okay to attend it yourself. ·
Half an hour later.
He Zhixing took Wang Mo to a large lecture theater.
A banner hung at the door of the classroom: Joint Literary Exchange Meeting of the Five Major Universities in Beijing.
There are two students sitting at the door, responsible for signing in.
What surprised Wang Mo was that activities were also being held in the lecture theater next to him. The banner over there reads: November Music, Culture and Arts Day.
"Is this the daily life of students in Qingbei? There are various activities every day."
Wang Mo admired secretly.
Just when he was about to follow He Zhixing into the lecture theater, He Zhixing seemed to see an acquaintance and hurriedly greeted him.
Wang Mo was left standing alone at the check-in desk, feeling ashamed.
Waited for a while.
When Wang Mo was bored and counting sheep.
Suddenly, a female classmate walked out of the classroom of the literary exchange meeting. She glanced at Wang Mo with amazement in her eyes, then looked at Wang Mo's slender fingers, and then quickly said: "You are here to play the piano today, right? Come on, come on in. We have been waiting for you for a long time. The literary exchange meeting is about to start. Before that, please play a few piano songs to warm up the atmosphere..."
Said.
The female classmate dragged him into the classroom.
In many exchange meetings and activities, before the start of the event, someone will basically play the piano to warm up the show. But Wang Mo didn't expect that the female classmate in front of him thought he was a piano player.
"I...that..."
Wang Mo didn't react for a while.
"Time is tight, so I won't say much more. I'll leave this to you first, I'm going to do other things..."
The female classmate was doing things very fast and brought Wang Mo to a piano. She gave him a few words and then left quickly.
Wang Mo was left alone and messy in the wind.
stood for a moment.
He found that everyone was busy and he was the only one standing in a daze.
And I don’t know where He Zhixing went.
Wang Mo could only gradually focus on the piano in front of him, then slowly sat on the piano bench and muttered: "Everything is fine... How about playing a few words?"
