In 2026, web-novel superstar Chen Wangbei was reborn in 1979.
That year, reform and opening up had just begun. Literary magazines were at the height of their popularity, and the people were hungry for books.
As for him, he was just a temporary vegetable chopper in the Peking University cafeteria.
People laughed at him for thinking the hand that held a cleaver could also hold a pen.
Until...
His novel appeared as the cover story in October.
The editor-in-chief of People's Literature personally wrote to invite him to submit work.
He became the youngest winner of the national novella and short story award.
Literary heavyweights could no longer sit still. "Where did this kid come from?"
When reporters went to interview him in the Peking University cafeteria, they saw Chen Wangbei wipe his wet hands.
"I'm a vegetable chopper."
More than sixty years of memories, the experience of four marriages, and the rewards of literature's golden age.
In this life, he would write things that could stand the test of time.
And he would do right by the woman on the train who was stitching the soles of shoes.
It's quite interesting, but the female characters seem to have some interest in the protagonist as soon as they appear. I hope it's not a harem story. The sense of déjà vu in the harem is also too strong 🤦. The protagonist clearly seems to like Li Lingyu more, but he treats Zhu Lin like this. This is no different from a virgin. Here comes another foreign girl. The harem is written in a period novel... At that time, there was a gangster crime, and the protagonist wanted to be a great writer. Did he not want fame? Or do you really plan to make Zhu Lin the heroine? No matter how beautiful the girl is, it is not suitable for the older boy to be eight years old. The girl will suffer in the future. Nowadays, when boys and girls look for little girls and boys, they are looking for pretty boys. The protagonist obviously wants to be a great writer and celebrity, so it is impossible for him to be a freeloader. In ten years, the protagonist will be in his prime and the girl's years will pass away. Will the protagonist be able to maintain his integrity for a girl who is eight years older? Or should I continue to follow the old path of my previous life, marry one and divorce the other, focus on not making mistakes, but getting married and divorced is like eating, if it is salty, bland, sweet or sour, just change the dish?
It's my own book, give it a thumbs up
Although I know that novels are novels, I still feel inexplicably sad when I see the story written by the protagonist and the readers' replies. A writer said that the essence of sympathy is to reduce one's own energy and give one's life and future to others. Sympathy is suicide. Sympathy is essentially bleeding. Today, with the development of the market economy, I actually still have sympathy. I thought about it, looked at the dog next to me, and kicked it hard twice. I felt much better. I have to learn to be a cold-blooded person, otherwise I might not survive.
The story is very simple and has given me a lot of inspiration. I prefer the author's novels. The author's writing is very measured, not in depth, but in scale. If you go too far, it will be easy to get distracted. The plot of the story written by the author is very measured. The protagonist's behavior in the social background of the times is well grasped. I really like to read this kind of novels and stories written by the author. Come on, author! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The author's writing is so good! Just like books from the 1980s and 1990s, they are very literary and touching. Just a little bit, can Zhu Lin stop it? After all, the age difference is quite big. I can write some songs for Li Lingyu later, and I guess the author has arranged it this way. Hahaha! Looking forward to subsequent updates!
This is a documentary-style novel with few dialogues and too many narrations. Overall, it was a good read. I suggest that the protagonist speak more and the documentary style be less narrated, but it always feels like it lacks a soul.
It is a very sincere work on this platform. The work is written with warmth while still retaining some elements of online novels. The writing skills are very serious like those of literati in that era. Some paragraphs in some chapters gave me a feeling of repetitive writing, a sense of memory fragments like a TV series. I think maybe when writing at a certain point, the author reflected the text on the alarm clock and turned it into a picture.
This book is good, with details, logic, and plot design. It's really good and worth watching.
It's pretty good, the characters are good, and the story is lively and interesting.
Good-looking is just one word. . Reality. . Come on
