April 13th is a landmark day for Jiang Qiuyun!
On this day, the 2031 Mao Dun Scholarship was announced!
Her Yunqi Tianshan won the only grand prize this year!
The Mao Dun Scholarship Award is a novel award sponsored by the Chinese Writers Association and is one of the highest honors in Chinese academic circles.
On March 14, 1981, Mao Dun, a famous modern Chinese writer and chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, made a will and donated 250,000 yuan to the Writers Association to establish this award.
On March 27, Mao Dun passed away. In October of the same year, the Chinese Writers Association followed Mao Dun's last wish and launched the Mao Dun Academic Award.
The first Mao Dun Scholarship was awarded in 1982.
This award was originally held every four years, with 45 outstanding works selected each time. But starting from 2026, the regulations will be revised to select once a year, and only one high-quality novel will be selected!
Jiang Qiuyun's winning of this award is very important to her. It marks her status in the Chinese world, from a beauty online writer to a real female figure in the world. Although she is still very young and her future achievements are limitless, this grand prize is like "closing the coffin" in advance, which is equivalent to adding the words "famous scientist" on her tombstone.
That evening, she invited her parents and Lu Cheng's family to have a dinner together at the "Chengnan Past" restaurant. It was a small celebration dinner.
The two families gathered together happily, both excited about Jiang Qiuyun's achievements.
Lu Tianming praised: "Qiu Yun, you are already famous at such a young age! What a joy to congratulate you!"
Jiang Qiuyun smiled and said: "This is just a small step."
Rao Yuqiu said: "Qiuyun, I heard that you stayed up all night writing? Don't let it break your body!"
Jiang Qiuyun said: "How can you stay up all night? That's what others are saying."
"I heard that you are still studying for graduate school, and you have changed it to a combined master's and doctoral program?"
"Yeah, I only go to school occasionally and stay at home most of the time."
"How many years will I study?"
"It probably won't take more than three years."
"Only 3 years? Why so fast?"
"I won the Contradictologist this time, and I can also speed up my graduate studies. If I want to graduate earlier, maybe two and a half years will be enough."
After all, it is extremely rare for a winner of the Mao Dun Scholarship to still be studying, and Jiang Qiuyun is the only one! If she wants to graduate early, there is still a lot of hope for her to work a little bit.
Rao Yuqiu meant that she hoped to have a grandson as soon as possible. However, as a mother-in-law, she could not say this at will, otherwise she would easily offend her daughter-in-law. She was relieved to hear that it would only take two or three years to graduate.
Huang Yingyi looked at Lu Cheng and said, "I heard that you already control two listed companies?"
Lu Cheng nodded: "Yes, one is Daqin Technology, and the other is Kunlun Jue."
"So you have a lot of money? Can you donate some to establish a Nobel Prize for China?"
"This is not possible for the time being. All my money is in the stock market. In order to control Kunlun Jue, I still owe 18 billion in debt! Now I am empty-handed and can't do anything!"
Huang Yingyi said: "I'll give you ten years. After ten years, can you spend 10 billion to establish a grand prize in the scientific community? Specifically to reward Chinese scientists?"
Lu Cheng said: "Okay. But why do you want to take the lead?"
"Because of academic corruption! I looked through domestic biochemistry journals in recent years and found that many papers were suspected of fraud, and no more than 30 papers could truly withstand scrutiny! I am very worried about this phenomenon. If a country wants to rise, it must first rely on science and technology. leading"
Huang Yingyi has devoted her whole life to academic research and knows how difficult it is to succeed in this field. If you have a doctorate in finance, law, or business management, you can easily get an annual salary of one million. However, except for a few top people, most people who do academic research do not earn high incomes.
She said to Lu Cheng: "I want to set up a prize to focus on rewarding young scientists. If there are 10 billion yuan in funds and an annual increase of 3,000 yuan, or 300 million yuan, we can reward 100 young people with 3 million yuan each, which can change their living conditions. , to enhance the motivation for scientific research.”
Lu Cheng nodded vigorously: "Okay! I will try to get this money as soon as possible! I can do it within two years!"
He thought to himself: "Isn't 10 billion a simple thing for those top bosses? But why is no one willing to do it? Since no one is doing it, let me do it!"
If it comes to setting up a charity fund, he still has a lot of concerns, but when it comes to setting up a "science award", he still supports it.
Jiang Qiuyun said: "Mom, I still have a lot of money in my hand. Do you want to sponsor you 5 billion?"
Huang Yingyi smiled and said: "I don't want your private money! Lu Cheng is on the rich list. He is much richer than you, and he even complains about being poor to me!"
Lu Cheng grinned and said, "Don't be anxious, you have to give me some time to work."
"Huh, I'm not old."
"Ha, I was wrong, you are not old at all."
The oldest of the four elders present here is Lu Tianming, who is close to 60 years old. The other three are about the same age, all less than fifty years old. Because Sang Shenzi who ate various spiritual meats, spiritual grains, and hibiscus trees, everyone They all look very young. Huang Yingyi looks like she is in her thirties.
As an academician, Huang Yingyi attends conferences every year. Faced with those gray-haired old gentlemen, she is regarded as a "young and beautiful woman."
After the dinner, Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun returned to the villa in Taohuayu.
Jiang Qiuyun sent Mingyue Shuangxi Shui, which had been revised twice, to the editor-in-chief "Mejiang".
Meijiang first offered some compliments and congratulations, and then said: "I have discussed it with the editor-in-chief and several elders from Fanghua. Because you won the Mao Dun Scholarship, it is necessary to re-sign a contract with you and sign a contract with you. For a more favorable agreement, it is expected that the website’s commission will be lowered. The specific cost is still under discussion.”
Jiang Qiuyun said "Okay" and then said: "The new book has 13.5 million words, and you can update 30,000 words every day."
Mejiang praised: "You are so awesome! You have saved so many manuscripts! The Internet said that you worked hard and stayed up all night. You must pay attention to your health!"
"Thanks for the reminder. My health is very good. Next, I have to rest for a while."
“With so many manuscripts, you could take a whole year off.”
"Haha, it won't be that long."
Jiang Qiuyun said she would rest for a few days, but after taking the Kaiming Pill, the effect of the medicine had not worn off, so she couldn't sleep even if she wanted to.
The same goes for Lu Cheng. He still has to wait a few days before he can go to another world.
Lu Cheng taught her the "Seven Postures of the Black Bird" and the "Chunhui Cuncao" meditation method.
If you still feel that the night is long, then practice double cultivation together.
At first, Jiang Qiuyun had not advanced to the innate level, and Lu Cheng was still a little worried. Now her skills have greatly increased and she can unlock a variety of postures.
After a night of in-depth communication, the romance was boundless, they were happy, their hearts were in harmony, their emotions were further strengthened, and all kinds of tenderness were unspoken.
In the morning, Jiang Qiuyun walked to the yard with her five-stringed qin, faced the rich and fragrant peach blossoms, bathed in the gentle and slightly chilly spring breeze, and played pieces of ancient music.
Some tourists got up early, heard the music, and hurried over to take videos.
They posted the video online.
"Versatile Yun Ji! Not only is she a great scholar who won the Mao Dun Scholarship, she is also a beautiful girl who loves music, dancing, and fencing!"
"She still looks like a girl! She has a graceful figure and picturesque features. She is so beautiful."
"I'm going to die! My soul was taken away by her!"
"She is truly a peerless enchantress!"
"Strange, why is there so much news about Yun Ji in the past two days? Could it be that she is hyping it up?"
"It's possible. Aren't the so-called experts just hyped?"
"Tch, you ignorant guys, do you know what level of award the Mao Prize is? Those writers Zhang Xiaosan and Li Xiaosi can win the Mao Prize even if they hype it up? Yun Ji is the winner of the Mao Prize, does she still need to hype? ?These short videos were all shot by fans standing at a distance. You see, the pixels and picture quality are not very good."
"There are some that are very clear."
"That may have been taken by reporters, or paparazzi, who have been chasing hot spots. Don't forget, Yun Ji and Lu Cheng, the couple, have always been hot spots!"
That morning, Lu Cheng made some calculations and felt that he was still short of money, so he called Yang Guangchang of Hanhai Auction House and said that he wanted to auction another batch of "spiritual jade".
Yang Guangchang told him some bad news: "Mr. Lu, I don't even dare to take your order! Did you know? Something happened to another buyer of the spiritual jade that was auctioned last time! They spent a lot of money to buy it My spiritual jade was stolen! These days, I always feel like someone is watching me, which makes me afraid to go out. The bodyguard who followed me to your place last time was sent to XJ."
Lu Cheng hummed softly: "If someone forces you, ask him to come to me. Come here openly, and if he can block my punch, I will give him 100 pieces of spiritual jade!"
"Mr. Lu, you are a very brave artist. But I am not. When will you come to the Magic City in person? Put the spirit jade in a safe and then I will pick it up? This way your identity will not be exposed. .”
"What's the use of this? If the other party is interested in investigating, just check the flow of funds directly."
"How about waiting for a while?"
"Oh well."
Lu Cheng didn't expect that he would encounter such unexpected trouble if he wanted to auction jade with spiritual energy. It seems that there has been a change in the world of cultivation, and some people have realized the value of spiritual jade.
Another day, he received several packages, which were goods from the "Suzhou Fur Crafts Factory". They were marked "clothing" on the outside. When he opened them, he saw that they were sets of "dragon leather clothes", 163 sets in total!
He took out a pair of trousers and chopped them with a kitchen knife at home, but it failed to break!
So he called Chen Fengmei again: "Please come over again tomorrow."
The next day, Chen Fengmei took the high-speed train for half an hour, and then took a taxi for half an hour to Taohuayu.
Lu Cheng gave her 80 sets of dragon skin clothes: "A set of invulnerable dragon skin clothes costs 20 million!"
Chen Fengmei smiled bitterly: "Boss, can you sell it at such a high price?"
"Not only is it invulnerable, but it is also very light and can protect the body. It is a must-have item for monks. Do as I say. You can put a high price first, and you will be able to sell it sooner or later."
"Oh well."
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "Is 20 million expensive? That's just an apartment in the devil's capital!" He kept part of it for himself, and planned to take the other part to another world.
