Chapter 929: Determined to Get It
There is a crescent moon hanging in the sky tonight. Without the moonlight, the stars will shine brightly.
Wang Yan was in the middle, with Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi on the left and right. After having a full meal, they slowly returned to the art troupe together.
"Wang Yan."
"Um."
Xiao Suizi asked: "Are you still going to perform?"
"Go, rest for a few days, I will sort out the story and then leave. I heard that the soldiers missed me very much and stopped coming back a year ago. I have served in both armies. This is why I came back. The soldiers still Wait for me. Hey, don’t look so sullen, I definitely miss you two more.”
"Bah, you stinky scoundrel."
"shameless."
Although the exchange of letters made people blush more and more, they still couldn't accept Wang Yan speaking so frankly in person. So one person hit Wang Yan with a small punch.
Wang Yan said with a smile: "Isn't this just because I suddenly heard the news that the college entrance examination is going to be resumed? I thought about it carefully. As I told you two before, it is a better choice to take the college entrance examination. I know you guys won't let me go. , and blame me for being too charming, too talented, and too good.
But in fact, even if you two don't go to college and both stay in the art troupe, we won't see each other a few times throughout the year. Instead of doing this, it's better to go to college. If you wait two or three years, everything will be fine. "
"You really want us to leave." Hao Shuwen asked similar words to Xiao Suizi before.
"It's not that I want you to go, but you should go. It's good for both of you. The short separation is for a better reunion, and it's not like we won't see each other again in this life. You can still write letters on weekdays, and I'll tell you later Maybe we’ll go to the capital on the way, it’s no different than being in a cultural troupe. You two should think about it and discuss it with your family.”
Hao Shuwen sighed: "I don't know when it will end."
"I've wasted all my time talking about co-writing."
"Yes, yes, you said two or three years, who knows if you are right." Xiao Suizi couldn't help but sigh.
"If it's not allowed, then I will take the initiative to apply for a job transfer, or change my job directly. In short, no matter what, I will definitely go to the capital in the future."
"You're right."
"allow!"
Hao Shuwen agreed with Xiao Suizi and accepted the matter, basically deciding to change careers and go to college.
If one of them wanted to backstab someone secretly, that would not be a fault. After all, as Wang Yan said, he goes out to perform and never comes back several times throughout the year, so there is really no need to worry about it.
There was some silence for a while, and Wang Yan said with a smile: "Before I came back, I went to your house to have a look. Everything was fine. I wanted to bring you something, but I didn't take it. There was nothing important. I didn't buy it in the first place. few."
"My dad doesn't give you a good look, does he?"
"It's really not good, but don't hit the smiling person..."
The three of them were talking like this, laughing and joking, and it was Wang Yan who was complaining. The age has come, but there is still no result. Their family urged them, but Wang Yan didn't say the right thing, so they just blamed him.
But who knew Wang Yan was in trouble?
Maybe...Lin Dingding understands.
When we met again after a year, she was even more enthusiastic and showed no signs of unfamiliarity. She took the initiative to hug him. If the kiss failed, she would hold on and not let go.
"Don't do this."
"I don't." Lin Dingding's voice was a bit crying, "You have been gone for a year and you haven't given me any news. Do you know how uncomfortable it is for me to wait for you? Do you know how painful it is in my heart? I'm like this, even a stone should be used to keep warm. Why are you doing this to me?"
Wang Yan sighed, held her face in his hands, clamped her ears between his teeth, and wiped her tears with his thumbs.
"It's not why I did this to you, it's why you made things so difficult for me, Comrade Lin Dingding."
"I like you. Is it wrong to like you?"
"You're right, but you're making me wrong."
"Then I don't care, I just like you. Really, I missed you very much this year when you were away. Every time I see you writing to them and them smiling secretly, I envy them very much, too. I miss you even more, but why can't you think of me.
After all, I am a girl, and I am no worse than them in appearance. There are so many men pursuing me, but I don’t give them a chance, so I stick to you. Why can’t you understand that I am the one who loves you the most. "
Maybe she was moved by what she said, or maybe it was originally from her true feelings. As she burst into tears, she definitely expressed her thoughts about Xu Renren.
Wang Yan wiped her tears: "It won't look good if you cry. Please keep your voice down. If someone sees it, we will both be finished."
"It's over. Anyway, you don't have me in your heart. It's better to just die, so that you can remember me forever."
"Yes, I won't let you go even if you are a ghost."
Lin Dingding was amused and gently pushed Wang Yan's chest: "I hate it."
She had a good sense of proportion and did not continue to entangle. She left Wang Yan's arms and asked instead: "I heard that the college entrance examination may be resumed. What do you think?"
"I've already attended Military and Political University, what else can I think about? Do you want to take the exam?"
"I'm not sure. I heard from Zhu Ke that there seems to be only the college entrance examination outside, and there's not much movement in the army yet."
"I told them that the resumption of the college entrance examination is certain, but it is a matter of when. I personally think that the possibility of resuming the college entrance examination is still very high within two years."
"Them? What do you mean? They want to change careers?"
Wang Yan didn't hide anything, but he didn't explain it in detail. He just talked about the need for the country to resume the college entrance examination, and said that going to college has a better future than being in a cultural troupe. As for the disarmament of the army and the abolition of the cultural troupe, he Not a word was mentioned.
"So you persuade them both to take the college entrance examination?"
"Um."
"Then do you think I should change my career?"
"Look at yourself. This is a major life event that affects your future. But I think if you can change your career, you should take the exam. After all, going to university is better than being in a cultural troupe, and there are many outstanding talents in universities. Maybe It’s not necessarily true that you’ll find the man you like after you get into college.”
"Impossible, Wang Yan, don't worry, even if I go to college, I will only have you in my heart. Do you think I should go?"
"I just said it, it depends on yourself, you have to be responsible for yourself."
It's good that Wang Yan can say so much. Although many things didn't happen, Lin Dingding is not a good person, that's for sure. But that has little to do with Wang Yan, after all, he only sees beauty.
It would be good to say that Lin Dingding has not lost contact since he went to university and is still studying him. If contact is lost, it doesn't matter. He is not a lustful ghost who sleeps with everyone.
To put it another way, even if you let him sleep, he will not sleep well now...
"I'd better not go. Anyway, they both left, so you will belong to me alone from now on. Although it may take a long time to see you, as long as I can see you, I will be very satisfied."
Wang Yan was noncommittal, but he reached out and wiped the tears that were still wet on her face: "Go back and get some rest early."
Lin Dingding stepped forward and put her arms around Wang Yan's neck, pecked Wang Yan on the lips, and then shyly retracted, not daring to look into Wang Yan's eyes: "You must be tired from driving all the way, so take a good rest."
After saying that, she turned around and ran away shyly...
At this time, the resumption of the college entrance examination has become the hottest topic in the art troupe. This shows the gap between the cadres' children and the masses. After all, the symposium was only held in early August. In mid-August, this group of people in the southwest knew the news, and it even became obsolete because there was no definite news. The topic has been discussed, but people outside have not heard anything yet.
The next day, when he came back from breakfast and early classes, he saw Wang Yan packing his things again. Guan Dongming asked curiously, "Are you still leaving, Wang Yan?"
"The political commissar asked me to change to a single dormitory so that I can create more easily. It's not far away, just downstairs. It's about changing to another room."
When he talked about creation, of course no one said nonsense. Even though they didn't talk about creation, they actually welcomed him off, but they couldn't help but give him a few pretentious polite words.
"Yes, you are now a famous writer, and you need a quiet environment. Come on, brothers, please stop driving and help." Chen Can shouted and took the initiative to help. "
"Thank you." Wang Yan looked at Chen Can with a smile.
If there was only one moment when these people felt that he was a good person, it was probably when he sent canned food and Chinese seeds to these people. Now that he is finally moving out, these people are all somewhat relaxed, feeling relieved that they can finally breathe after a long time.
Indeed, although Wang Yan seemed to be alright and talked and laughed with them, they did not dare to act like he was alright. They didn't dare to forget the fierce look of Wang Yan holding Zhu Ke up with one hand. What happened in the picture book appeared in reality, and it was so terrifying.
Immediately, everyone in the dormitory helped and went downstairs with their things. After saying a few polite words, they all dispersed, leaving Wang Yan alone to pack.
Single dormitories are naturally better, mainly because they have more space. A single bed, a wardrobe, and a desk with a lamp on the desk. It also faces south. The sunshine from the good weather today is shining in, and the breeze is blowing in, which is very nice...
At noon, after lunch, Hao Shuwen asked: "Why didn't I see you in the morning? Now that you have become a great writer, you don't play the broken suona anymore?"
"I changed to a single dormitory and tidied up the house."
Xiao Suizi nodded: "That's right. You will be promoted to deputy battalion after the new year. It is not appropriate to live in a dormitory with so many people."
"I'm criticizing you. Even if you're a cadre, you're still a soldier. There's no way to say it's appropriate or inappropriate. It was the political commissar who took care of me. He knew that I still wanted to write and needed to be quieter, so he moved me to another place."
"You are the only one who is enlightened." Hao Shuwen rolled her eyes and said, "Let me tell you something."
"Um."
"The two of us discussed it and decided to listen to you and change careers and go back to take the college entrance examination."
"Wise choice."
"I'm telling you, Wang Yan, if you dare to lie to me, you are dead." Hao Shuwen gritted her molar teeth and spoke.
"You're dead." Xiao Suizi repeated, and patted Wang Yan, very determined.
"It's been so long. When have I kept my word? This will be of great benefit to you in the future. Not to mention that you may be assigned good jobs in the future. The knowledge you get in college is different and it broadens your horizons. Just Studying is already a great benefit, not to mention there is a better future. In short, there is absolutely nothing wrong with changing careers and going to university.”
"Okay, that's it." Hao Shuwen pulled Xiao Suizi away.
They did not go back to the dormitory, but walked outside to go to the post and telecommunications office to make long-distance calls home...
As expected, their choice was supported by their families, and they must have asked around, so they did it very quickly. After performing for five days, Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi, who had rested for a day, packed their bags in the dormitory.
Lin Dingding asked knowingly: "What are you two doing?"
Xiao Ballet, Zhuoma and others were also paying attention and asked questions.
Hao Shuwen said: "Didn't Zhu Ke say that the college entrance examination would be restored? Besides, now that the chaos is set right, the country is willing to reform. Even if you can't pass the college entrance examination, you can do something else."
"Let's prepare for the college entrance examination first. If you can't pass it in one year, you can take it for two years." Xiao Suizi said.
Xiao Ballet asked curiously: "Are you two crazy? There is no confirmed news yet. What if it doesn't resume?"
"You are stupid. They are both children of cadres. They must have received accurate news." Zhuoma said very directly, but it was indeed a normal guess.
Hao Shuwen waved her hand: "Don't talk nonsense, my family has no definite news. But I just think that the college entrance examination will definitely be resumed, and there will be results in one or two years. So we should just go back and review in advance, so as not to be anxious when it is really confirmed, it will be too late then."
"When are we leaving?" Lin Dingding asked.
"We will take the afternoon train and leave at the same time."
"Really, this is too fast. You didn't make any movement before, and you left as soon as you said you would. When you two came..."
Before parting, comrades who have been together for several years can't help but talk about the past...
They packed up quickly. When they went downstairs, Wang Yan was already waiting downstairs in a jeep. He loaded their luggage and left without much nonsense.
Chen Can and others didn't know the news. Only Lin Dingding knew it in advance, and of course she wouldn't tell everyone.
So when they were rehearsing, they all found that Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi were missing.
Zhu Ke asked, "Lin Dingding, where are Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi?"
"They left."
"Left? What do you mean?" Chen Can followed and asked.
"They were demobilized." Xiao Ballet said, "They are all Zhu Ke. He said a while ago that the college entrance examination would be resumed. They thought it was more likely to be resumed. Besides, now that the chaos is being rectified and the educated youth are returning to the city, it doesn't matter if the college entrance examination is not resumed. You are all children of cadres, so you can have a meal. Aren't you demobilized and going home to review?"
"What?" Chen Can and Zhu Ke said at the same time.
Chen Can was naturally surprised by Xiao Suizi's departure. Similarly, he felt very uncomfortable at that moment, as if he was suffocating.
Zhu Ke was because of Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi's decisiveness. He hadn't made any move yet, but they had already left.
"No, I have to report quickly..." Throwing down this sentence, Zhu Ke ran away.
Chen Can stared blankly at Zhu Ke running away, thought for a while, and ran away too...
"Why, you can't bear to leave?"
Wang Yan was driving the car, and Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi, who were sitting in the back seat, were staring blankly out the window. He asked with a smile.
Xiao Suizi sighed: "After all, I have been here for several years. There are so many people here every day. Now I have to leave, and I feel uncomfortable."
Hao Shuwen was also melancholy: "Yes, time flies too fast. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye."
"Review well after you go back. I have found the previous textbooks. I will sort them out and write a review outline for you two. I will send it to you next month. The first session of the college entrance examination after the resumption of the college entrance examination is the most competitive, but it is also the easiest. Try to pass it in one try."
"Why are you so disappointing?" Hao Shuwen said with dissatisfaction.
"The past cannot be retrieved. It's just a burst of energy. Once it's over, it's over. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant later. I want to see if you enjoy the food."
"It's annoying."
Xiao Suizi said: "Wang Yan, when you go to perform, can you not write letters all the time?"
"Don't worry, write at least one letter a month, which means you won't see a reply for a short time. You can still reply, and I will read them one by one when I return to the group, and then reply to you one by one. Don't think about it, just concentrate on reviewing for the college entrance examination. If you don't pass the exam, it will be a waste of time. Do you think the comrades in the group can say good things about you?
They are all children of cadres. They were afraid of the hardships of going to the countryside to join the production team, so they ran away to hide in the army. Now, they are all running away. If you two pass the exam at the same time, that's it. If you don't pass the exam, then the words will be even more unpleasant. "
"Bah!" Hao Shuwen was very angry, "I think you think so. You deliberately targeted me back then. You have a problem with our children of cadres."
"Why are you still bringing up the past? It's been a long time."
"Okay, okay, we are leaving now. We haven't seen each other for several years. Why don't you leave some kindness?" Xiao Suizi said unhappily.
Wang Yan laughed: "She holds a grudge. She can talk about this little thing for a lifetime."
As they talked and laughed, they arrived at the state-owned restaurant. Of course, they still had eight bowls of food. The three of them ate very happily and still talked and laughed.
Finally they arrived at the train station, and the train was about to depart. Seeing Wang Yan, who had escorted them to the train and put their belongings away before leaving the train and standing on the platform with his hands behind his back, smiling at the two of them, Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi shed tears.
The train whistle sounded, and it started to rumble, heading north. Wang Yan smiled and waved goodbye to them.
There were no more words, all the feelings were buried in the heart, suppressed, waiting to meet again, and waiting for a clear result...
That night, Wang Yan went to Liu Feng's house for dinner. The food was naturally excellent, all hard dishes.
After taking a sip of wine, Wang Yan asked: "What have you two considered?"
"Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi are both gone, and you won't harm us, so why should we hesitate? We will report tomorrow. Please help talk to the political commissar, I'm afraid the political commissar will not approve."
Liu Feng said it very realistically. Seeing Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi leave decisively, he also made up his mind. Of course, he couldn't compare to them if they excluded their family relationship, but he also knew that they were both unclear with Wang Yan, and Wang Yan would definitely not harm them, so the two of them would be finished.
After Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi left, the two of them made a decision, mainly out of caution. It's not that they are afraid that Wang Yan will cheat them, but they are afraid that something else will happen in the middle.
Wang Yan nodded: "You write now, I will go directly to the political commissar tomorrow. I will give Xiaoping a review outline in two days. As long as you review well according to it, I guarantee you will pass the college entrance examination."
"All at your discretion."
Liu Feng firmly followed Wang Yan's footsteps, and immediately wrote the report and handed it to Wang Yan.
After eating and drinking like this, Wang Yan wandered back to the art troupe in the evening, and as expected, he met Lin Dingding who was waiting here again.
She still went forward and hugged Wang Yan: "I want to tell you something, can you please not blame me?"
"You also reported to change your career?"
"Well..."
Lin Dingding nodded, "I have thought about it carefully these days. Even if both of them left, you can't be just me, and you must have performances, and I won't see you many times. Seeing that they all left today, I felt very uncomfortable when I thought that they would all go to college in the future.
I don't want to fall behind them, and I don't want you to think that I am not as good as them, so I wrote a report today and called home. Wang Yan, you won't blame me, right?"
"How can I blame you? I said before that going to college is a better choice. And there are so many excellent people. You are happy and I am relieved."
"Do you hate me so much?" Lin Dingding blinked, with a look of Tears were flowing, and she was so charming. Without waiting for Wang Yan to say anything, she said with certainty, "I will definitely make you like me."
... This statement made Wang Yan inevitably think wrongly. How to say it, he really likes me...
Lin Dingding talked to herself: "It can be done in the next two days. We have another performance tomorrow. I will leave when I come back. I know you don't want to be seen, so you can't send me off. By then, you may not be in the troupe."
After saying that, she went forward and kissed Wang Yan's mouth again. This time Wang Yan responded. He didn't let her give up immediately, but held her face and lifted her lips...
For a long time, Lin Dingding blushed, panted heavily, and her eyes were as charming as silk: "I know you have me in your heart. I'm leaving. I know you won't write to me, but I will write to you. You must read it. I look forward to seeing you again in the future."
After saying that, she turned around and ran away like a frightened deer.
Maybe she believed it herself, Wang Yan smiled and shook his head, and went back to the dormitory...
The next day, after breakfast, he went to Ningshan to help He Xiaoping transfer to civilian work. It was at this time that he learned from Ningshan that Chen Can and Zhu Ke had both mentioned the matter of transfer to civilian work. In addition to them, there were some other people, all of whom were influenced by the transfer of Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi.
Ningshan said with emotion that it seemed that the art troupe was about to disband, but he still approved He Xiaoping's transfer to civilian work with a smile and scolding.
How could there be a shortage of people in the army, especially in a unit like the art troupe, many people are trying their best to get in, not to mention that it is not so easy for everyone to transfer to civilian work. You can't really think that the political commissar is a decoration. The political commissar can't stop the awesome people, but forget about the un-awesome ones. As Wang Yan said before, many people who are not from cadre families also want the stability of the army, and even if they have the idea of taking the college entrance examination, they will be suppressed.
So in general, only a very small number of people left. The gap in this part was filled by opening some to the division-level art troupes below and recruiting some people to fill it up, without any disturbance or impact.
After handling He Xiaoping's affairs, Wang Yan stayed in the art troupe for two more days and sorted out the review outline. This is a real "treasure book". As long as you read it carefully and review it, you will definitely get a high score in the college entrance examination.
He gave one copy to He Xiaoping, and the other two copies were sent to Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi respectively.
Lao Liao also finished the arrangement of the Strong Army War Song. As they had discussed before, it was in the form of a march, and according to Wang Yan's opinion, Lao Liao changed the number of the assembly and charge. The assembly was at the beginning, and the charge was before the second chorus and at the end, to carry on the high pitch to the end. It was still sung by the designated singer, Fang Hongmin.
Following Wang Yan in the same troupe, Fang Hongmin got too much credit. With "We Soldiers", "The Motherland Will Not Forget", "My Motherland and I", "For Whom", and the latest "Strong Army War Song", he can make a living for the rest of his life. He is an authentic singing and performing artist with a very high status.
Lao Liao is no worse. The people only care about who sings, but Lao Liao's arrangement is not given for nothing. He is also a serious great artist. Moreover, arranging music is not Lao Liao's main job. He is a conductor, a serious top music artist.
After listening to it once, Wang Yan gave a considerable degree of recognition and affirmation, and then he had nothing to do. It was nothing more than Lao Liao sending the score to the General Political Department, and then Fang Hongmin and the other two went to Beijing on business, borrowed the recording equipment of the General Political Department to record the song, and then promoted it nationwide. Wang Yan wrote a total of five songs, and the two of them went together five times.
After these tasks were completed, Wang Yan started his tour again.
"Comrades and brothers, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Wang Yan salutes his comrades." On the plateau, Wang Yan put on his coat and saluted everyone in a circle.
After the salute, a soldier shouted loudly: "We all thought you disliked the hardship of the frontier and stayed in Beijing and didn't come back."
This statement was recognized by many people, and they all made a fuss.
"To be honest, because of my excellent performance during the training period, the leader hopes to transfer me to the General Staff..."
After not seeing him for a long time, the soldiers really missed him and were quite enthusiastic. Wang Yan never disappoints those who have high expectations of him. He still brings joy to the soldiers with one performance after another.
Even because they knew that he went to Beijing for further studies, the soldiers were curious about what Beijing looked like. It must be said that Beijing is there, but it always has different meanings and is a place that people all over the country yearn for.
So while continuing to tell heroic stories, Wang Yan added another program to each show, talking about Beijing. The Beijing in his mouth is of course different, and the highlight is that it is vivid. From the history of Beijing, he talked about the appearance of Beijing today, and even imagined the future for the soldiers. The soldiers listened, their eyes were full of yearning.
A red star shines, and the light shines in all directions. Who can not yearn for it...
Lin Dingding left, just as she said, she left quickly. Wang Yan learned the news two months later, when Liu Feng hurriedly called him to the regiment headquarters where he was at the time.
Of course, the news of Lin Dingding's departure was casually mentioned, mainly because He Xiaoping was pregnant, which was why Liu Feng was panicked.
They had a rough life. When they just got married, Liu Feng injured his waist because of disaster relief. Later, maybe the waist was not good and affected his performance? In short, He Xiaoping has been silent, so there are some gossips in the troupe, which is of course not important.
The important thing is that He Xiaoping has changed jobs. Because her household registration is with Liu Feng, and Liu Feng's household registration is in the art troupe, He Xiaoping did not return to Beijing, but was in Mengzi, and she would also take the college entrance examination in Mengzi.
Now the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination has been announced, and the arrangements in various places are different, but most of them are in December. The college entrance examination is about to be held, but He Xiaoping is pregnant, which is quite embarrassing.
Whether there is treatment for pregnancy in the art troupe is not important. Liu Feng does not know whether the college entrance examination will be held or not, and whether he will be allowed to take it after passing the examination, so he called Wang Yan in a hurry.
Wang Yan reassured Liu Feng that the first college entrance examination was the easiest, so he should take it first. After he passed the exam and received the admission letter, he could study the next thing.
He Xiaoping was going to take the Central Institute for Nationalities, which was renamed "Minzu University of China" in 1993. It is a 211, 985, and double first-class university, a real famous university.
In a case like He Xiaoping, it is natural to withdraw from the application, wait until the child is born and raised, and then take the exam again. But a better way is to keep the file, retain the student status, and delay enrollment.
This is of course difficult to operate, but Wang Yan is not without a way. He has been in the past few years and has become a disgusting and damned person with connections. Even though he is mostly in the military and in the literary world, it is not impossible to find people he knows. As long as he is willing to lose face, there is no big problem.
Liu Feng's matter is just a small episode, and Lin Dingding's departure is not that important. Wang Yan is still doing his thing. I wrote to Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi, and continued to write the "Chinese Heroes" series every day. Even though it has been published for several years, the editor-in-chief of People's Literature told him that the sales are still very good and many people like to read it. Because the highlights of each hero are worth recalling.
To make an inappropriate analogy, this is more like a "cool article". Although many people have passed away, it makes people sad, but it also makes people excited.
So many people like to read it. The older ones who can read, the younger ones who can barely read by themselves, and even those who can't read by themselves, have adapted the story into picture books and sold them to children for one or two cents.
This is of course the infiltration of values. The older ones watch the excitement, while the younger ones can see it in their hearts. In this respect, as a writer who outputs words, Wang Yan is quite successful. He writes a lot, spreads widely, has a large audience, and has a great influence. In fact, in the hearts of the people, the "11th Army" and "14th Army" that established his literary status are not that good, because the reading threshold is a bit high and it is too long.
This is why Wang Yan continues to write "Chinese Heroes". As long as people like to read, he likes to write. He has nothing to do.
In September, the document on the restoration of royalties was issued and announced, with 2 to 7 yuan per thousand words for manuscripts. Wang Yan has more than 4 million words of works, and his two heavyweight long works "11th Army" and "14th Army" have established his position in the literary world. His royalties are naturally the highest, 7 yuan per thousand words.
The ones published by the PLA Literature and Art before are not counted, and the ones published by Beijing Literature later are not counted. Wang Yan didn't want any of them because they were not much. He could only ask the People's Literature Publishing House, because all his books were published by People's Literature.
Although there was no market economy, Wang Yan's books published by People's Literature had already sold well in the past, and were reprinted several times, including the earliest volume of "Chinese Heroes", which is still being reprinted. According to their statistics, all of Wang Yan's books have sold more than 10 million copies.
So when the royalties were restored this time, People's Literature had no extra words to say. Moreover, Wang Yan was a military man and a well-established literary figure, so it was of course happy to give him money. Therefore, Wang Yan received a remittance of 30,000 yuan, 30,000 yuan in 1977. This is only pure royalties, and there is no royalties for the number of copies printed. If there were, Wang Yan would earn money for each reprint.
This royalties for the number of copies printed would not be restored until 1980. By then, Wang Yan could collect some money from time to time, and it would not be a small amount. After all, by 1980, he had at least 7 million words to rely on. "Chinese Heroes" was really easy to write...
On the other hand, Lao Liao and Fang Hongmin teamed up again to record in Beijing, and "Strong Army Battle Song" was also promoted. The people, soldiers, etc. all like to listen to it because the melody is simple, bright and powerful, which meets the conditions for dissemination, but they don't know the story behind the song.
Military leaders in Beijing and other regions do know the story behind the song. After fermenting for so long, Wang Yan's book "My View" has been published by the Military and Political University and distributed internally, and of course Wang Yan's royalties have not been reduced. Many senior leaders believe that although Wang Yan's writing is exaggerated and unrealistic, the war scenes and various weapons depicted in it are still very entertaining...
This is of course impossible. How could it be so sloppy, although this is indeed a small part of the reason. More importantly, it is actually the content of Wang Yan's writing about political and ideological work that is close to "theory", which is very practical. The Military Commission and the Central Committee all say it is good.
Another point is that Wang Yan did not sing praises. After all, he wrote about reorganization and disarmament, and put forward opinions on military logistics, so there must be some corresponding criticisms of the existing army. For example, bloated, relatively low efficiency of logistics operation, declining combat quality, etc., these are all practical problems, and the leaders also recognize them.
On top of these valuable ones, the future war described by Wang Yan is worth seeing, or more accurately, it is the yearning for the kind of war scene that Wang Yan said. The fear of insufficient ammunition is caused by the enemy's artillery fire...
So this time, Wang Yan's new "Strong Army War Song", the leaders who experienced the defense at the Military and Political University that day, and the leaders who later knew the details, couldn't help laughing out loud while praising Wang Yan's talent and the good lyrics.
There was even a leader who laughed and said, "What a great Wang Cannon, he is so stubborn, listen to him, the horn of his new journey has been blown..."
