While Xiang Nan was eating, he was thinking about how to make his first pot of gold.
People were coming and going in the cafeteria, and many girls couldn't help but glance at him as they passed by.
According to the setting in the play, Chen Xiaozheng is the number one handsome guy in the school and is quite popular among girls.
It's a pity that he only looks like a prince, but his life experience is very poor.
After careful consideration, Xiang Nan decided to start with writing.
For a poor student like him, writing is basically the lowest-cost and highest-return way to make money.
However, Chen Xiaozheng's starting conditions are not even as good as Xie Yongqiang's.
After all, Xie Yongqiang still has a computer and can directly write online to make money. Chen Xiaozheng doesn't even have a computer, and his living expenses are so pitiful that he doesn't even have enough money to go to an Internet cafe.
So if he wanted to write, he could only write manuscripts by hand and submit them to some magazines.
Fortunately, he checked some articles before coming here.
Because the movie version of "To Our Mortal Youth" took place in the 1990s. At that time, the Internet was not prosperous at all, and the only way to create was to submit articles.
…
After Xiang Nan made up his mind, he finished his meal and went directly to the library.
Today is the first day of school for freshmen, so there are no classes all day. Of course, not many people go to self-study. Most people were either sleeping in the dormitory or running to the school gate to see the beauties.
As the saying goes, freshman girls are freshly put on the shelves, sophomore girls are on sale, junior girls buy one get one free, and senior girls give it away for free.
Now the freshman girl has just arrived here, looking confused, innocent and easy to deceive, which is a good opportunity for the seniors to take action. Last night, some animals in the dormitory were chatting, saying that they were going to pick up school girls today and hook up with a few by the way.
So the library is really empty, and there are still very few people who are motivated.
Xiang Nan first went to the computer room of the library, surfed the Internet for half an hour, and checked some information he needed, and then returned to the reading room.
After sitting down, he took out a copy of "Introduction to Architecture" and put on a posture of serious study. Then he took out paper and pen and wrote "Di Renjie: The Tongtian Empire" in eight big characters.
"Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven" is a suspenseful action movie launched by Hong Kong director Tsui Hark in 2000. The story is full of suspense and climax, especially the settings of [Ghost Market], [Tongtian Pagoda], [Red Flame Golden Turtle], etc. are really brilliant and impressive.
Therefore, after its release, this movie earned a box office of 300 million, ranking sixth in the annual box office list, and has since kicked off the "Detective Dee" series. It can be said to be a very successful work.
Xiang Nan plans to contribute to "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times: Martial Arts Edition", so he plans to use this film adaptation as a stepping stone.
…
Xiang Nan immediately started writing.
"I knew you would be here." Just as he was writing furiously, he heard a female voice laughing.
Xiang Nan looked up and saw a gentle and lovely beauty with a slim figure and a quiet temperament standing in front of him.
"Zeng Yu, why are you here?" Xiang Nan stood up and greeted with a smile, while turning over the paper quietly.
Zeng Yu is the daughter of Vice Dean Zeng of the Department of Architecture, and the daughter of Yu Jing, the chairman of Oriental Star. It can be said that she is from a famous family and has a prominent status.
Moreover, she is also an admirer of Chen Xiaozheng and has a deep love for him. It's a pity that Chen Xiaozheng only regarded her as a friend.
"I came here to borrow some books to read." Zeng Yu said with a smile, "Azheng, you are really working hard. They all go to the school gate to look at the beauties, but you are the only one who is still studying in the library."
Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Beautiful girls are nothing to look at. Studying makes me happy."
"Yes." Zeng Yu nodded with a smile, "Heroes agree, so I'll stay with you."
Xiang Nan didn't want her to stay, as this would affect his writing. But he really couldn't open his mouth to chase her away, so he had no choice but to nod his head and read a book with Zeng Yu.
…
Xiang Nan was relatively new to architectural design, but now that he flipped through the book, he began to feel that it was actually quite interesting.
Architectural design is a discipline that spans engineering technology and humanities and arts, and because it involves a lot of cultivation and edification of aesthetics, it can be called an architectural art.
It requires learning subjects such as sketching, color, plane composition, three-dimensional composition, architectural composition, architectural mechanics, interior design, urban planning, and so on.
To learn this profession well requires both a smart and rational mind and the talent of an artist. It can be said that it is not simple at all.
Xiang Nan studied seriously. He found that Raj's intelligence also served him well when studying these courses.
At least after he flipped through these books, he could remember the general contents. This is still very helpful for his final exam.
But while he was reading seriously, Zeng Yu, who was opposite him, raised his head from time to time and looked at the handsome and hard-working man opposite him, with deep love in his eyes.
"Azheng, it's noon, let's go have dinner." Just as Xiang Nan was fascinated, Zeng Yu suddenly said with a smile.
"Oh, okay." Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, put away the book and manuscript paper, and then accompanied Zeng Yu to the restaurant.
After preparing the meal, sit down and eat together.
Their combination of handsome guy and beautiful girl really attracted a lot of attention.
The men and women coming and going in the cafeteria, even the calmest people, would take a furtive glance or two.
However, Xiang Nan and Zeng Yu are already used to it.
They finished their meal calmly.
"Azheng, let's go back to the library." Zeng Yu invited again.
"Oh, I have something else to do in the afternoon." Xiang Nan said with a slight smile, "In this case, you can go alone first, and I will find you after I finish my work."
"Okay, then it's settled, you must come." Zeng Yu said with a smile, and then left first.
After she left, Xiang Nan hurried to the study room and took the time to write "Di Renjie".
In the morning, because Zeng Yu was in the way, he wrote less than 6,000 words, but the progress was far behind.
…
Xiang Nan wrote in the study room until four o'clock in the afternoon, and then went to the library to find Zeng Yu as agreed.
After reading a book with her for a while, they would eat together, and then find an excuse to leave after the meal. By the end of the evening self-study, he finally wrote 20,000 words, and his wrists were so tired that he was so tired.
However, less than half of the story has been written. It is estimated that if it is finished, it will be at least 50,000 words. Based on the current royalties, it can probably be sold for three to four thousand yuan. Although it’s not too much, it’s enough to cover the food expenses for a semester.
Xiang Nan then returned to the dormitory and saw his roommates Zhang Zhang and Gong Cheng, as well as Xu Kaiyang, Chen She, Hu Jin and others in the next dormitory having a fight.
"Look, you see, I am the first person to take a photo with the new goddess of Jiangnan University." He said with an open face.
