Reborn, I achieved legendary status with a single book.

Chapter 31 First Prize.

"Principal Wang, congratulations!"

"Director Lin, what brings you this joy?"

"How can a principal not know this? The results of the New Concept Writing Competition have been announced."

"Oh, when?"

"Just now."

"Did Chen Yang from our school win an award?"

"What do you say?"

"My God, this is amazing! Our No. 2 Middle School's ancestors must have been blessed! I knew that kid would definitely bring back a second prize."

"What second prize? It's not a second prize."

"Oh, it's not second prize, it's not just a shortlist award, is it? But it's fine, being shortlisted is good too."

"Principal Wang, can't you use your imagination? First prize! Your school's Chen Yang won first prize in the New Concept Writing Competition. And this is the most prestigious first prize in Group A."

"First prize? I, I...I..."

"You didn't expect that, did you? I didn't expect it either. I even heard that if the highest award this time wasn't only first prize, the judges would have wanted to award this essay the special prize."

"so smart?"

"That's really impressive. It's said that when the judges saw this article, they were so excited that they shouted out loud."

"Director Lin, you're exaggerating."

"What's with the exaggeration? My classmate told me himself. Okay, I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Our education department will be coming to your school in a bit, and the publicity department will be coming too."

“Great, I’ll call Chen Yang over right away.”

About an hour later.

A large group of leaders from No. 2 Middle School arrived in a grand procession.

Chen Yang was also called to the office by his homeroom teacher, Yang Xiaoqin.

The group of leaders showered Chen Yang with praise and even offered him a reward of 5000 yuan.

Principal Wang was extremely excited and was preparing to announce the matter to the entire school soon.

In addition, Chen Yang was told to get ready so he could give his acceptance speech on the school playground later.

Chen Yang felt completely overwhelmed and quickly said to the group of leaders, "Leaders, I am currently a senior in high school. All senior high school students are under a lot of pressure right now, not just me, but all my classmates are under a lot of stress. Let's not publicize this too much."

Live again.

Chen Yang takes many things in stride.

The real thing is that new concepts can add points, something tangible and real.

As for the rest, it's all just vanity.

"Chen Yang, what you said makes sense. We'll find another opportunity to promote and interview you later."

Several leaders were impressed by Chen Yang's composure.

After praising Chen Yang lavishly, he left the school.

As far as they were concerned, it was fine if Chen Yang didn't want to promote it.

Anyway, I've already got the results, so I just need to give a proper report to my superiors.

"Chen Yang, why did you refuse just now?"

Leaving the principal's office, Yang Xiaoqin also praised Chen Yang for his composure.

Chen Yang replied, "It's not that I'm patient, it's just that this kind of publicity is unnecessary. If we really publicize it, the whole school will know about it, and there will be a lot of trouble. Also, if I become famous all of a sudden, what if I only score 300 points on the college entrance exam? I'll be laughed at to death."

These words made Yang Xiaoqin burst into laughter.

However, he also said, "You can't be so inconsistent with your grades. Last time you only got 390, I was thinking of calling your parents over."

"Teacher Yang, did your homeroom teacher do this when you were a student?"

"of course."

Yang Xiaoqin said, "Now that I'm a homeroom teacher, I have to have some fun, right?"

"alright, you win."

Chen Yang was helpless.

It seems the cycle of karma truly is real.

"Uh...Teacher Yang..."

Halfway there, Chen Yang suddenly thought of something.

Yang Xiaoqin was somewhat surprised and asked, "What is it?"

"Teacher Yang, there's something I forgot."

"?"

"Um, just now in the office, didn't those leaders say they'd give me a 5000 yuan bonus?"

"It seems like he did say that."

Is it too late to ask them now?

"I……"

Yang Xiaoqin was almost petrified by Chen Yang's thought process.

It took him a while to come back to his senses.

This kid is smarter than anyone else.

I don't accept any publicity or anything else... but I remember the 5000 yuan reward very clearly.

Not only do I remember it clearly.

The leader has already left, but he still wants to come back. Yang Xiaoqin suppressed a laugh and said, "I'll ask him for you later."

come back to the office.

At this moment, Yang Xiaoqin could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.

Yang Xiaoqin's colleagues were puzzled, wondering what the meaning of her laughter was.

Just ask.

have to.

All my colleagues were laughing so hard their stomachs hurt.

When Zhang Yu, the Chinese teacher who had just entered, heard Chen Yang asking about the 5000 yuan reward, she burst out laughing and spat out her water.

An older teacher added, "Hurry up and call those leaders. They haven't gone far yet. Tell them to put the 5000 yuan away safely."

"Yes, how can a leader go back on his word? If he said it would be 5000 yuan, then it has to be 5000 yuan."

"Hahaha, hahaha..."

……

cough cough.

The leader has a relatively broad perspective.

In the end, Principal Wang helped Chen Yang get the 5000 yuan back.

Although the leader laughed so hard he bent over when he heard that Chen Yang was asking about the 5000 yuan, he still couldn't help but laugh.

But compared to Chen Yangqi's achievements, 5000 yuan is nothing.

However, for Chen Yang, 5000 yuan is not a small amount of money.

For Chen Yang, who hadn't yet received any payment for his writing, 5000 yuan was a godsend.

It's important to know that Chen Yang's daily trips to internet cafes incur a considerable expense.

At the same time, Chen Yang is a day student who usually eats and lives at home, so he doesn't have much pocket money and has no reason to ask for too much pocket money.

I've been going online every day lately, and all the New Year's money I saved up has already been used up.

With 5000 yuan, you could easily spend the whole day at an internet cafe on a Sunday when you have time off.

"Come on, Zhang Lin, I'll treat you to internet access today."

"so good."

"What, you don't want it?"

"No, didn't you say you were going to run out of pocket money?"

"Suddenly receiving a windfall."

"What unexpected windfall?"

"I won't go into details, let's go."

Okay.

Zhang Lin didn't ask any further questions and went to the internet cafe with Chen Yang.

……

"Update the chapter first."

Chen Yang will update the latest chapter.

Then I checked the book review section and interacted with readers and fans.

Then Chen Yang checked out SkyNet to learn about industry trends and see what interesting things were happening in the industry.

You know what, there are quite a few interesting things happening in this circle.

For example, a certain author was looked down upon on a blind date.

An author's royalties increased tenfold to 10 yuan.

An author is on the verge of becoming a legend, but upon checking, there are only 250 favorites.

Of course, there are also some inspirational author friends.

A friend of mine who is an author finally got a contract after writing 80 words.

A writer friend shocked his family by revealing that he earned over 10,000 yuan in royalties in a single month.

One of my author friends has joined the local writers' association.

I have an author friend...

At last.

Chen Yang opened the captain's novel.

Although in the past few days, Chen Yang noticed that the captain seemed to have stopped posting negative reviews.

However, Chen Yang is a man who holds grudges.

If someone takes a bullet from you, it's not in Chen Yang's style not to get revenge.

"This kid's really getting the hang of it."

As Chen Yang read the latest chapter of Captain's Diary, a smile crept onto his lips.

Clearly, the captain was influenced by his three long reviews.

This was evident in some of the recent chapters.

But that's not enough.

The intensity wasn't strong enough.

Chen Yang picked up the keyboard and wrote another long commentary of over a thousand words.
