Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 277 If you pass the exam, you will be a college student. If you fail, you will teach college students? (3K)

At 5:30 in the afternoon, in the main hall of the courtyard.

Tonight we are entertaining the Chen father and son and the Cai father and daughter, and the entire Fang family will be with us.

Fangyan prepared a table full of dishes, mainly to cater to the guests' tastes. The dishes on the table were halal and Fujian cuisine.

Fortunately, Fangyan was knowledgeable and experienced in his previous life, otherwise he would not have been able to put together such a large table of dishes.

When they saw that Fangyan made dishes that suited their tastes without asking them, they were a little surprised at first, but they soon realized that they could ask Meng Jimin.

Plus, they are celebrities, so it’s actually pretty easy to find out about their hometown cuisine.

They were quite moved by Fangyan's behavior.

It's obvious that a lot of effort has been put into the preparation of these dishes, not only the variety of dishes, but also the taste. Most people can't make them so delicious.

If they hadn't seen Fangyan busy in the kitchen, they would even suspect that Fangyan had hired someone to make it specially.

Today Fang Chen followed Fangyan's plan and made arrangements with them as agreed. Tomorrow morning Fang Chen will go to the editorial office of People's Literature, where Professor Cai will be waiting for him.

After finishing his work there, the editorial department would ask someone to drive him back and also bring back the typewriter that Fangyan wanted to borrow.

In the afternoon, Chen Kaige came again to pick people up to go to the Beijing Film Studio, where Director Chen was waiting for him.

Fang Yan seemed to have basically not intervened in this matter, leaving everything to Fang Chen. In the eyes of Director Chen and Professor Cai, this was a great respect for them.

The two of them reciprocated the favor and lived up to the trust, offering Fang Chen very good conditions.

The worldly wisdom is quite complete.

After dinner, Fangyan took the opportunity to invite them to the Siheyuan for a wedding banquet during the National Day. The four people who had a very happy meal readily agreed immediately.

Even if they just come here to eat the food cooked in dialect, they think it is worth the trip.

Afterwards, Fang Yan sent the four people out of the house. Since they came here today in the Beijing Film Studio's jeep, Fang Yan didn't have to worry about their return home.

Seeing several people getting on the bus, Fang Yan Fang Chen waved goodbye to them.

Watched their jeep drive away from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Street.

Fang Chen, who had drunk a lot of wine tonight, felt a little overwhelmed and immediately planned to go back to sleep.

Although Fangyan drank a lot, he was fine. When he returned to the living room, he found that his wife had already made tea and prepared a hot towel for him to wipe his face.

"Thank you, wife." Fang Yan took the hot towel and put it on his face, feeling like he was alive again.

At this time, the old lady said to the dialect:

"Fang Yan, you've been really busy during this period, running around for Lao Si."

"Today I finally got recognition from others."

Father Fang Zhenhua also said:

"Yes, not only will he receive royalties, but he can also join the Chinese Writers Association. Once his book is printed, he will be a real writer."

"All this is thanks to you as my brother."

Fangyan took off the towel, waved his hands at his parents and said:
"We are family and we don't have different opinions. I just did what I could as an elder brother. If what he wrote was not good, it would not be presentable and would not be accepted by others."

The old lady said a little embarrassedly:

"At that time, none of us thought highly of him. You were the only one who thought highly of him. Fortunately, you supported him. Otherwise, our family would have really buried him."

Fang Yan waved his hands. Fang Chen had just done something terrible at that time, and it was normal for his parents to think he was not good enough.

Only Fangyan saw a chance for him to bounce back.

Life is like this. Don’t be discouraged when you reach the bottom. Usually there will be a turnaround at this time. As long as you don’t give up on yourself, you will definitely be able to turn bad times into good times.

The dialect said:

"A blessing in disguise. I said at the time that his suffering might become his fortune."

"And he himself is not discouraged. Look, he has gotten back on his feet now."

Hearing Fang Yan's words, Fang Zhenhua and He Huiru nodded repeatedly.

Fortunately, Fang Yan did not give up on his brother at that time. He immediately found a job for him to do, chose the right direction for him, and discovered Fang Chen's potential.

The person Fang Chen should thank most is his third brother Fang Yan.

Fangyan then talked about another matter:
"After finishing things here, he will go to Inner Mongolia to see the eldest sister. If you have anything to tell him or any letters to take, you'd better write them down first and let him take them with him."

"After he signs the agreement, he won't wait for printing and publication, because that will probably take another week, so he will prepare to go to Inner Mongolia after tomorrow."

"So fast?" I asked in surprise.

Dad said:

"It would be better if it were quick. Maybe a new household registration policy will be announced someday."

"What do you want to say to your daughter? Think about it quickly and write it down tomorrow. Then let the fourth child take it over."

He Huiru said to her husband:

"Then think about it. You haven't seen your daughter for so many years. You should say a few words to her, right?"

Fang Zhenhua scratched his head and said:
"I don't have anything to say to my daughter. I'm just waiting for her to come back soon. I'll just write a sentence or two in your letter."

Hearing the man's words, He Huiru wanted to curse. This damn old man was so lazy that he even skipped the trouble of writing a letter to his daughter.

Fang Yan said at this time:
"By the way, Dad, have you heard any news about my second sister?" The old man was startled, and then he immediately took out a note from his trouser pocket:
"Oh, yes... I almost forgot, there's news!"

Then he showed the note to his family:

"She was recently ill and was hospitalized in the county, so I haven't received any news."

Fangyan asked in surprise:
"He's already in the county hospital? His illness must be serious!"

Fang Zhenhua said:
"The details of the situation are not very clear in the telegram, but at least the person is fine now, so we can rest assured."

The dialect proposed:
"Or let her go back sick."

Dad shook his head and said:
"You know her temper, she's stubborn and stubborn, and you can't persuade her. She said she's going to pass the exam, and she's definitely going to stick to her word."

Fang Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. He thought for a while and said:

"That's fine. She hasn't found a partner anyway, so even if the new household registration policy is implemented, it won't have much impact on her."

At this time, Zhu Lin asked:

"By the way, speaking of exams, the national college admissions meeting has ended. Is there any news about the latest exact time?"

This question was obviously directed at Fang Zhenhua and Zhu Guangnan.

The two looked at each other, and Fang Zhenhua shook his head:

"Not yet."

Zhu Guangnan said:
"But it should be soon. I estimate it will be around the beginning of October after National Day at the latest."

At this time, Father Fang Zhenhua said to Fang Yan:

"Fangyan, I see you haven't looked at the college entrance examination books for a long time. You'd better review them and don't relax."

Fang Yan heard what his father said and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I've also read it, and I'm sure I can pass the exam."

At this time He Huiru said:

"You really don't have to worry about him..."

"If he fails the entrance exam, someone should be able to arrange other ways for him to go to university."

As soon as these words were spoken, Fu Zhaojun and Zhu Lin, who were both in the medical system, nodded in agreement.

With Fangyan's current abilities and achievements, he can definitely achieve this level.

Father Fang Zhenhua was a little confused. He originally thought his wife was joking, but it seemed like she wasn't joking.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also looked serious, as if they agreed very much with this point of view.

Even his relative-in-law Zhu Guangnan had an expression as if he knew something.

Only now did Fang Zhenhua realize that he seemed to have missed some important event at home recently.

Seeing Fang Zhenhua's confused face, He Huiru remembered that she seemed to have not told this to her husband yet, so she told him that Mr. Cheng from the Hua Xia Chinese Medical Research Institute had lunch here yesterday at noon. At that time, he said that he went to Nantong to help Fang Yan with something.

When Father Fang Zhenhua heard the news, he looked at Fang Yan in disbelief.

Then Fu Zhaojun added that there were actually two other people helping Fangyan, one was Wang Yuchuan and the other was Zhu Liangchun, and then he kindly explained their identities.

After hearing this, Fang Zhenhua asked:
"So, if you pass the exam, you can become a college student, and if you fail, you can teach college students?"

Fangyan explained with a smile:

"You can't say that. If you say that I was blocked from college after the college entrance examination, how can I become a university teacher? That's too much."

……

The next day soon came.

After Fangyan got off work in the morning, he returned to the courtyard and saw a huge typewriter placed in the main living room of his house.

When Fangyan saw it, it immediately brought back a long-lost memory. He realized that he had seen this typewriter in his previous life.

I was in primary school at that time.

At that time, there was such a machine in the teacher's office in the school.

It is divided into a dial, a pointer, a dial, a joystick, a delete and a space, and an ink roller.

Fangyan pressed the button twice according to the instructions he remembered, and found that the words were indeed typed on the rolling axis, which was used to hold paper or oil paper.

It is not difficult to use, but the troublesome part is to find the corresponding Chinese characters from the character dial below, which requires you to memorize the character dial.

Compared with the keyboards in the electronic computer era, it is definitely very backward. After all, it is just an old item invented in 1918 and it has only been a few years since it was eliminated.

But compared to writing, once you become proficient in it, it will definitely be faster than writing.

Next, Fangyan only needed to look at the keyboard once, let the system load it, and then start typing. With his proficiency, he could write the first edition of "Chinese Materia Medica Preparation" at a speed of about 100 words per minute.

As long as there is no mechanical failure of the typewriter, Fangyan is sure that he can finish writing before the end of the month.

However, before writing, Fangyan planned to inform Professor Yuchuan and Mr. Cheng first. It would not be enough to do this by himself. He also had to let his superiors know and get official endorsement, otherwise all his efforts would be in vain.

PS: The 6000-word update has been completed, and there will be more updates later.
