Guiqin turned her face away directly, too lazy to pay attention to him.

Just now, she was still considering whether to accept this senior brother who was very good in all aspects, especially because the other party was able to get tickets for this luxurious annual meeting, which gave her the illusion that the other party was very capable in the capital.

But now, when she saw that hateful and glamorous figure on the stage, it was no longer difficult for her to think about the boys around her, only deep remorse and jealousy remained in her heart.

The one who felt the same jealousy as Gui Qin was the little master Wang sitting in the third row of guest seats.

He claims to be a cutting-edge fantasy novelist of the younger generation, and he is a well-deserved leader connecting the past and the future.

It's a pity that the fact is that he was not invited to the stage and appeared as the main guest. Instead, a little-known kid was born out of nowhere, with a blunt aura added to him.

This taste made him feel like someone had slapped his face severely.

Especially just now, he took the initiative to stand up and question the identity of this important guest in public.Looking back on it now, it's like making a fool of myself.

He can even imagine that this matter will soon be passed on as a laughing stock in the circle. Although he doesn't mind being scolded, but the other party is a new generation of writers younger than him, which makes him jealous, and It's unbearable.

The introduction of Lu Menglin's identity was just a small episode at the opening of the annual meeting, and soon returned to the normal process.

Firstly, Vice Minister Liu, the propaganda officer of the municipal party committee, who was sitting in the middle of the rostrum, gave an opening speech, and then several heavyweight guests on the rostrum gave short speeches respectively.

Of course, Lu Menglin didn't need to speak, and he wouldn't be so stupid as to take the initiative to speak up on this occasion, because it was purely provocative.He sat on the rostrum in front of the rescue mascot with peace of mind, with a smile on his face, just keeping his image.

The conference was on the right track and proceeded according to the normal process. After several heavyweight guests spoke, Xu Changjiang, the president and editor-in-chief of "Science Fiction World" gave a report speech.

The president’s speech mainly introduced the achievements of the magazine in the past year, as well as the outlook for the future, etc. It also specifically mentioned the need to vigorously train and support new authors of the younger generation, linking the past and the future, Let the power of science fiction be passed down from generation to generation.

Everyone in the audience listened, and naturally grafted what the speech alluded to onto Lu Menglin.

As for that Uncle Ji Hu, he was laughing all the time in the audience, and his whole body was about to convulse from laughing.

Chapter 53 Seduce

Fortunately, this meeting was not too long. At around [-] pm, all the guests present moved to the large banquet hall next to them to participate in the pre-dinner reception.

Accompanied by Miss Etiquette, Lu Menglin first entered the grand banquet hall with several heavyweight guests on the rostrum, followed by other guests. As for the peripheral readers and fans, they are not eligible to enter. Choose to visit the exhibition hall outside.

Lu Menglin followed several heavyweight guests into the arena, and naturally accompanied him in the last place, without any ostentation, in a very relaxed state.

However, Vice Minister Liu, who had the highest position and the most important weight among the several heavyweight guests, stopped on his own initiative and smiled and nodded at Lu Menglin who was hanging at the end.

When Vice Minister Liu stopped, several others stopped in time, only Lu Menglin quickened his pace and walked forward.

"I read the novel you wrote. It has rich imagination and sophisticated writing style. The most important thing is the attitude towards science. It is logical and not made up." Vice Minister Liu laughed.

Lu Menglin nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Minister Liu, for your guidance. I will continue to work hard."

Vice Minister Liu stopped talking, nodded and continued on his way.

The several heavyweight guests next to him, as well as the accompanying staff, were all astonished.

So Vice Minister Liu is also his reader?

This kid can get the public comment from Vice Minister Liu, he must have a bright future in the future!

It seems that the promotion of the young author Lu Menglin is likely to be a plan drawn up by the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the magazine long ago to establish a typical character. This young man has come across a good opportunity!

Everyone was thinking as they walked, putting all kinds of thoughts on Lu Menglin. When they looked at him again, they felt that this man was imposing, and he would definitely be something in the pool in the future.

Lu Menglin didn't think much about it, and obediently followed behind with his head buried in the walk.

And that Vice Minister Liu's actions just now were actually over-interpreted by everyone.

A leader at the level of Minister Liu has a careful mind. Since he is going to attend this annual meeting, he must know something about "Science Fiction World" magazine.So before I came here, I flipped through the latest issue of the magazine. The cover story on it, the big draft happened to be Lu Menglin's "Anti-Material Warfare", so I was a little impressed.

As for Deputy Minister Liu's ability to read such a science fiction novel carefully, it is almost impossible. Maybe the minister asked the secretary for a few comments after reading it, and then commented casually.

But in the eyes of other people, they misunderstood Vice Minister Liu as Lu Menglin's book fan, so they naturally treated him differently and dared not despise him even more.

At the reception, several other heavyweight guests chatted with Lu Menglin one after another. Everyone's attention was on his age. For such a young high school student, he was able to write such high-level articles. I am amazed and have high hopes for such an outstanding junior.

Lu Menglin didn't talk much, but he uttered every sentence in a decent manner, giving people a good impression. He didn't have the so-called arrogance of talents, but he had a little more simplicity and frankness of a young man.

As the guests entered one after another, gradually, the number of people in the grand banquet hall increased.

Although so many people gather together, they still have their own circles, usually in groups of three or four, toast and invite each other, chatting and laughing happily.

Lu Menglin originally didn't belong to any circle here, and didn't know anyone, so when those heavyweight guests sat in the sofa area to chat, he didn't follow in self-righteously, but took a glass of cocktail casually, and was very active. stood in the corner.

"Brother Lu, so you are here!" The editor-in-chief Hu Yiming held a goblet, stretched his neck and looked around, and finally found Lu Menglin in the corner.

"I really want to thank you today! You have been of great help! Come, let me toast you!" Hu Yiming raised his neck and drained the wine in the glass, leaving no drop.

Lu Menglin looked at his big glass of cocktail, smiled awkwardly, and took a big sip.

"If Brother Hu hadn't flattered you and accepted my manuscript, I would still be teaching in the high school classroom!" Lu Menglin thanked him sincerely.

When Hu Yiming heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face immediately.

At first, he felt that he owed someone a big favor, which was weird, but now that Lu Menglin said this, it turned out that he was the one who picked him out from the crowd with his own eyesight, so he felt much more comfortable thinking about it.

"Brother Hu is kind to me, I respect you!" Lu Menglin was also straightforward, taking a big gulp, and bored the rest of the cocktail in the glass.

Seeing that this young man was so upright and forthright, Hu Yiming immediately felt that he was very appetizing, and said quickly: "It's also because you have real skills! If it were a puddle of mud, I wouldn't be able to lift it up even if I wanted to!"

The two were chatting, another group of people approached, and the leader was that Master Xiao Wang.

Master Xiao Wang nodded to Editor-in-Chief Hu first, and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Yiming, I really admire you! You are so picky, you can dig out talents like Brother Lu, awesome! Awesome!"

Hu Yiming is a person with no scheming mind, and when he heard people praise him, he immediately burst into laughter from ear to ear.

Master Xiao Wang changed the subject, and smiled at Lu Menglin again: "Little brother Lu, the so-called ignorant is not guilty, I have offended you a lot before, I'm sorry!"

Lu Menglin's mind was so sharp, he knew at a glance that this little braid was probably about to turn into a demon moth, so he didn't say much, just nodded indifferently.

"I heard that little brother Lu is still in high school, and he passed the draft for "Science Fiction World" for the first time. It can be seen that he is very talented. I wonder if little brother Lu is interested in joining the Writers Association?"

Without waiting for Lu Menglin to answer, Master Xiao Wang continued: "I am a member of the Writers' Association of H Province. I have the qualifications to recommend members. I can recommend you to your local City Writers Association first. If there is a chance in the future, it is not a bad idea to call you into the Provincial Writers Association." There is no way."

After Master Xiao Wang finished speaking, he had a haughty and arrogant expression, and his face was full of rich emotions of you begging me, come begging me.

In his opinion, being recommended to join the City Writers Association is like a blessing from heaven for a mere high school student who has not seen much in the world. As long as this kid has vanity, he will definitely take refuge in this mountain.

And he also thought about it, after this kid joins the Writers Association, let him worship under him, and he can make it round or flat in the future according to his own wishes.

As long as you enter the system, you have to be ranked according to seniority, and there will be plenty of ways to deal with this kid at that time.

But in the eyes of others, this is Master Xiao Wang supporting the younger generation. For a high school student, no matter how talented he is, he will inevitably be tempted by this kind of temptation.
