Chapter 79 Jealousy
Subtitle of this chapter: You should know that you are a guest in your dream, so you might as well get drunk together.
Suddenly I thought that the book "Wang Qing" in the previous chapter could be called "Rebirth of the Qing Dynasty as the National Master". If there was really this book, it would be very popular.
………………………………………
"Ba!Ba!Ba!"
Our Master Yuan returned to the Rosewood Hotel accompanied by two lawyers and a large group of reporters. However, they did not enter the guest room, but went directly to the large dance hall downstairs that also works as a bar.
Louis Baker and the others bought this big bar yesterday as a venue for the press conference, but now they all know that someone from above asked Yuan Yanshu to act in a low-key manner, so the press conference turned into a buffet cold dinner.
When Master Yuan walked into the dinner, everyone stood up and applauded warmly to show their welcome and congratulations.
He quickly took off his hat and bowed to everyone. Miss Lilian Gish and Miss Ainukar walked up generously, and at the same time stood on tiptoe and kissed his left and right cheeks. Then, the two beauties pulled Yuan Yan from left to right, one after another, and came to the small stage.
At this time, a pyramid of wine glasses was built on the stage, and there were a few top champagne sticks next to it.
Yuan Yan suddenly understood it at a glance. She picked up a champagne without anyone reminding her and shook it hard...
"Bang!"
“Music!”
When he turned on the champagne, the small band on the stage also began to play brisk jazz.
After officially starting the dinner, Master Yuan, as the host, naturally started to socialize with a wine glass.
He saw his duel assistant at a glance and walked over and said, "Brother Qingzhi, why are you the only one here?"
Major Cao smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Hongjian, Gu Shi, the two ministers, both of you and me, are a little disagreeable with you and me, so..."
"Oh..." Yuan Yan nodded suddenly and said with a guilty look, "This is my brother's fault. The duel is indeed a frivolous diplomatically."
He pondered for a moment and said, "I'm also worried that my brother has implicated me. Another day I'll go to the embassy to apologize and tell the two ministers that this is all my fault..."
"No, no..." Cao Linsheng waved his hand and said, "Brother Hongjian, you can't blame you for this matter! Speaking of this duel, you have gained Chinese ambition and destroyed the prestige of the British. What's the crime?"
"It is my honor to be able to work hard for Brother Hongjian. As for the embassy..." He sighed, "Brother Hongjian doesn't have to worry about me. I originally planned to return to China this year."
This guy was indeed a little disheartened about diplomacy in the Republic of China just like that timeline, so he planned to return to Seris to "save the country through education", "save the country through military affairs" and "save the country through industry".
How to say it, although this major Cao Linsheng is not well-known in history, the West Point graduate finally went to Macau to work as an apartment house. In terms of the historical background of the scarcity of senior talents like the Republic of China, this is a bit of a pity.
Our Master Yuan’s heart was moved. Isn’t he short of military talents? Instead of letting him teach sports at Tsinghua University and being a senior accountant for Zhang Dashuai, it’s better to take him to Nanyang for trouble.
He believed that everyone had the most suitable position. This guy was not very good at working as a senior staff officer in China and might not be suitable for being a military adviser or even a front-line commander in Nanyang.
But it's too early to say this now. Nanyang has to go over and see it with your own eyes, because even later time travel novels rarely explain the situation in Nanyang in the 1920s, and they have to conduct on-site inspections.
Moreover, at this moment, Major Cao must have a sense of pride in his heart to serve the country, and he might be looking forward to the Beiyang government. It is better to wait for him to suffer some trouble to return to China.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yan stopped comforting her, but laughed and said, "Now in troubled times, a military expert like Brother Qingzhi can only show his strengths when he returns to China. Then I wish you a great journey."
He raised his glass and said, "CHEERS."
Cao Linsheng touched the cup gently and said, "CHEERS."
At this moment, a pair of beautiful golden boys and jade girls came over. The tall man who was as handsome as Master Yuan said with a smile: "Neo, congratulations."
Yuan Yan suddenly turned around and asked very happily: "Francis, why are you here?"
Mr. Fitzgerald said happily: "As soon as I saw the news of your duel in the newspaper, I took a train to watch your duel. I originally thought I would come to see you again in the evening. But you were arrested, hahaha..."
"Please allow me to introduce it." He pointed to the beautiful lady beside him, "This is my wife, Zelda Cerry Fitzgerald."
Mrs. Fitzgerald, who could be regarded as a "stricken disaster" by the standards at that time, raised her hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Yuan, I'm very happy to know you. Francis calls you the most talented novelist today."
"I'm glad to know you, beautiful lady." Master Yuan politely kissed his hands, "Your husband is a dishonest man. He didn't tell the truth. I am just one of the most talented novelists, he is the second."
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Yuan Yan also looked at the young and beautiful couple with a smile, but sighed in her heart.
Fitzgerald's novels are really like prophecies of his own destiny. All the protagonists in his book are in their prime and ambitious young people. However, as the plot develops, the passionate personal struggles of these young people have failed to realize the success and wealth in their dreams. They are all teased by fate. They often lose themselves completely after experiencing the cruel and false impact of reality, and eventually step by step towards the path of destruction.
And the couple in front of us should be a microcosm of the twenty years from the 1920s to World War II in the United States.
At this moment, our Master Yuan suddenly felt a sense of jealousy. Why was there such a writer in the Golden Age of America that could reflect the changes of the times, but there was no writer in our Golden Age of Cyris who could write "The Great Gatsby"?!
By the way, we have the best-selling novel writer and the director of the top film with disabilities and strong will.
By the way, by the way, we have a PhD in Film and Television, who wrote, directed, acted and wrote the theme song by ourselves. (Note 1)
By the way, by the way, we also have the "a great online writer than Jin Yong" awarded by a professor in the Chinese Department of Peking University. (Note 2)
Maybe...it's just maybe, the era you have passed through is more absurd than the era you are in.
"Neo Neo!"
"Ah..." Yuan Yan suddenly came to her senses and asked embarrassedly, "Sorry, I'm distracted. Where did you say it?"
……………………
Note 1: For patients who don’t know, please ask Baidu “The Age of Innocence: Dream-Chasing the Entertainment Circle” on Baidu, especially the theme song of the same name, which is guaranteed to be surprised.
Note 2: Since studying online literature, scholars have always asked me if there will be master writers like Jin Yong in online literature? I always answer: "Yes, and there are already. Even, I surpass Jin Yong in my evaluation."
——Excerpt from "About the Writers of Master Writers of Chinese Online Literature One by One by One"Scholar Fan" by Shao Yanjun, professor of the Chinese Department of Peking University
Please note that Murong of Jin Yong's works has long since become a fan. I am not trying to complain about the three successful people including the "master-level online writer", but I am just complaining about the era we are in. Remember.
