"Is it popular again?"
Facing the congratulations from the three roommates in the dormitory, Jiang Yulou was mentally prepared, so he was not too surprised.
After all, there has already been a nationwide explosion, so this time, it's just like that.
A normal mind, no excitement.
"Fire, fire!"
"Nowadays, the school is talking about your song "See or Not"."
Wei Guoping said excitedly: "Yulou, why are you still looking so calm and not excited at all?"
Jiang Yulou wondered: "Excited? Why are you excited? Isn't this something that was expected?"
Three people: "..."
Damn, this is too pretentious!
But they couldn't refute it yet, because Jiang Yulou himself had experienced a similar explosion.
It was him who caused a huge response because of two poems last time!
Xu Xiangdong muttered: "Our freshman school belle is all asking about you. We are almost jealous to death, but you don't react at all. Is this appropriate?"
School beauty?
This was completely out of his scope.
So what about the school beauty? Not to mention that he has never seen her before. Even if she is really good-looking, can she be as good-looking as Tang Yuewen?
The only thing he laments is that for him, the dividends brought by poetry have almost ended here.
After all, the modern poems he could remember in his previous life were all Internet celebrity poems, and the number of such poems was limited.
There really isn't much wool to be harvested.
He also has a limited inventory now, probably only two or three songs.
There are some who are one or two grades behind, but he doesn't want to rely on low-grade poetry mixing fees, which might affect his reputation.
Yes, he values reputation now.
For example, the Yanjing newspaper in front of me has already assigned him the title of Prince of Love Poems.
Of course, the title "Prince" is too feudal, and the newspapers would definitely not say it that way, but that's what it meant implicitly.
Prince of love poems!
Jiang Yulou still cares about this title. Without him, he has a high enough profile.
"Young ones, as long as you take good care of me, there will be plenty of beautiful girls."
"Good guy, where did this Colonel come from? Brothers, let's suppress him together!"
Seeing several angry old men rushing towards them, howling and screaming, Jiang Yulou naturally resisted with all his strength. For a while, the fight was inextricable and he was extremely happy.
In fact, compared to the frenzy caused by "To See or Not to See", he is more looking forward to what kind of waves "Yellow Earth" will cause in the literary world after its publication.
The short story previously published in "Contemporary" is not only his debut novel, but also his painstaking work.
Although the response to his first short story was very good, unfortunately, it caught up with the two love poems of "Yanhe" and became popular.
This time, it shouldn’t be so bad, right?
If it is really the same as last time, it will be a disaster.
It's like, no one appreciates the hard-worked stuff, but the casual work is extremely popular.
Who can bear this!
No matter how much he dislikes seeing the poems he wrote, "See or Not See", which he has published in Yanhe Literature, has the potential to become a phenomenal work.
What is a phenomenal work?
Chen Zhongshi's "White Deer Plain", Lu Yao's "Ordinary World", and Jia Pingwa's "Abandoned Capital" are phenomenal works.
These works have sold tens of millions of copies cumulatively, aroused widespread discussion when they were published, and have endured for generations. These are phenomenal works.
And now, due to various blessings, "See or Not See" has the tendency to become a phenomenon.
Although there is no Internet in this era, young literary people have their own contact information.
They exchanged their thoughts on the poem through letters and gatherings.
When chatting among classmates or colleagues, the topic of discussion cannot be separated from this poem.
To what extent do young literary people love this poem?
As long as there is an analysis of "See or Not See" in the newspaper, they are willing to buy it, read it, and write letters to express their thoughts.
At this time, the paper media could not sit still.
You can increase your circulation by writing a few sentences of analysis, so why not!
Print media has benefited from the glory of "See or Not See", let alone Yanhe Literature.
In order to meet the order demand of the post office and bookstore, we printed five times in a short period of time!
This is not enough, far from it.
The sales are going crazy all over the country and they are asking for more copies.
It can be said that this book is hard to find.
Some people even bought the ninth issue of "Yanhe" at a high price just for this poem.
It can be said that this poem gave birth to the scalpers in advance.
Jiang Yulou’s legacy is endless!
Even though Yanhe Literature has been printing more copies, many people still can't buy it, which has caused many people who love poetry to spread and copy this poem everywhere. If Jiang Yulou knew about it, he would have to scold President Lei.
Who told him that because he was stingy with a few hundred yuan in manuscript fees, the first printing was only 100,000 copies, which was not enough to fill the teeth of readers across the country.
It’s true that I picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon, so I lost a lot for a small amount!
As for real feedback in reality....
It is not much different from when "Mountain Wood" and "Ten Commandments Poems" became popular.
It’s just that the code of communication among young literary people has changed.
From that time, "The first thing is that it is best not to meet each other, so that we can not fall in love."
It became "You see me or you don't see me. I am there, neither sad nor happy."
The people are still the same, but the poems they like have changed.
Just like the elementary school monks of later generations changed their secret code from "Little Apple" to "Lonely Warrior", that's all.
Riding on the popularity of his poems, Jiang Yulou's reputation became even more famous.
Many people still remember the news about Jiang Yulou's college entrance examination.
But after the report ended, there seemed to be no news again.
Therefore, many readers are interested in his college entrance examination results, whether he was admitted to university, etc.
Regardless of age, readers have a gossipy heart and like to explore news about idols.
This era is no exception.
Unexpectedly, local newspapers actually followed up on this news.
They found Yangping County based on interviews with People's Daily.
After some inquiring, they learned that Jiang Yulou scored very high in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Yanda University.
When they published the news, it immediately caused a sensation.
It turns out that Jiang Yulou is not only a great poet, but also a top scholar.
Yan University, that is the highest university in the minds of many students.
After the news was published, those who had criticized Jiang Yulou immediately stopped.
There's no way to blame him, he not only writes good poems, but also has good academic performance.
That's Yanda University, not an ordinary place. If you don't say it, you will be superior to others, but the possibility of becoming a public official is not small.
What if Jiang Yulou becomes a political official in the future and thinks of what happened today...
Hiss, some old-fashioned people scare themselves to death just thinking about it.
This newspaper was happy. Relying on the news about selling Jiang Yulou, the newspaper sold hundreds of thousands of copies, but Jiang Yulou was in misery.
After everyone knew that he was a student of Yan University, letters and love letters from readers flew to him like snowflakes.
