Chapter 44 The Admission Notice Has Arrived
Chapter 44 The Admission Notice Has Arrived
Luo Manxue exclaimed with admiration, "My goodness! 'Those Things of the Ming Dynasty' is so popular! This book... isn't it written by Chen Zhiyuan?"
Zhao Sisi's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously: "What do you mean by 'similar'? It's his writing! I... I never expected him to be this amazing..."
A complex mix of emotions welled up inside her: Chen Zhiyuan, if you had shown such talent and brilliance earlier, how could I have rejected you? I would have agreed to be your girlfriend long ago.
Yes, Chen Zhiyuan is so outstanding that he deserves me, Zhao Sisi. Such an excellent person should be my boyfriend.
The provincial capital, Jiangnan Publishing Group.
In the vice president's office, Wu Shuhan was extremely busy.
The phone on the table kept ringing, almost all of them about the book "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty"—some were anxiously asking when the stock would be replenished, some were requesting to increase their orders, and there were even many inquiries from other provinces.
Wu Shuhan himself felt a sense of unreality.
How did this book become so popular?
It seems that the additional 100,000 copies will probably not last long.
He picked up the phone and urged the relevant departments again, demanding that the 100,000 new books be distributed to major bookstores throughout the province as quickly as possible, striving to ensure that readers in the province could buy them by tomorrow, or at the latest the day after.
As for the national market, we can only wait for the next batch for now; these 100,000 copies must be prioritized for supply to our province.
After making several coordination calls, Wu Shuhan took a deep breath and dialed the printing factory again, issuing a new order: "Print another 200,000 copies!"
These days, Chen Zhiyuan receives calls from Zhou Shutang or Wu Shuhan almost every day.
Although he mostly stays at home writing and rushing to finish the next chapters, he already has a clear understanding of how popular the book is.
With his work so popular, Chen Zhiyuan was full of energy and maintained a high output of over 20,000 words every day.
Today is the same as any other day.
He went for a few kilometers in the morning, took a cold shower when he got back, changed into dry clothes, ate breakfast, and then sat down in front of his laptop again.
As for going to internet cafes to play games, he had long since forgotten about it.
I had just finished writing over 10,000 words in one go and was about to take a short break when my phone rang in my pocket.
He took it out and saw it was an unfamiliar landline number, with a local area code. These days, spam calls are extremely rare, so Chen Zhiyuan answered without hesitation.
As soon as the call connected, He Fei's voice, clearly filled with joy and brighter than usual, came through: "Chen Zhiyuan, I have great news! My acceptance letter arrived just now!"
She received her admission letter from Jiangnan University and was overjoyed. The first person she wanted to share this immense joy with was Chen Zhiyuan.
There was a small shop near her house with a public telephone. Although it cost 50 cents per minute, she dialed the number without hesitation.
Upon hearing that his acceptance letter had arrived, Chen Zhiyuan immediately perked up: "Really? That's wonderful! Congratulations!"
"Thank you! Your acceptance letter should arrive today, please keep an eye out for it."
"Yes, we go to the same university, so we'll probably be there around the same time," Chen Zhiyuan replied happily.
Considering that He Fei was using a public phone and the call was not cheap, Chen Zhiyuan consciously kept the call under one minute.
After hanging up the phone, he was filled with joy.
I'm getting a bit tired of writing, so I might as well go check with Uncle Wang, the gatekeeper. Maybe the notice has already arrived.
In their community, mail is usually delivered to the gatehouse by the postman, and each household picks it up themselves. For registered mail or money orders, a signature is required.
Chen Zhiyuan happily went out the door and walked straight to the guardhouse at the entrance of the community.
Just as he reached the door, before he could even speak, Grandpa Wang spotted him with sharp eyes, his face lighting up with a broad smile. He called out from afar, "Little Chen! You've come at the perfect time! I was just about to call your house!"
"The postman just came by and delivered a huge pile of mail, including yours! Looking at this big envelope, it's definitely your acceptance letter!"
As he spoke, Grandpa Wang picked up an extra-large envelope, about the size of an A4 sheet of paper, from the pile of letters under the windowsill and solemnly handed it to Chen Zhiyuan.
"Xiao Chen, sign here."
Chen Zhiyuan nodded, took the pen, signed his name, and then his gaze fell on the thick envelope.
Inside was undoubtedly the admission notice—the envelope was clearly specially made by Jiangnan University, with the university's name and emblem prominently displayed, along with a colorful picture of the university's magnificent main gate.
Chen Zhiyuan said happily, "It should be my admission notice that has arrived."
Grandpa Wang's face beamed with joy, the wrinkles on his face smoothing out as if it were his own family's happy occasion: "Little Chen, congratulations! When are you having the banquet? You have to invite us for a drink!"
"Uncle Wang, I'll definitely invite you then!" Chen Zhiyuan replied politely with a smile.
The people coming in and out of the community gate are mostly familiar neighbors.
Seeing how happy Grandpa Wang was, talking to Chen Zhiyuan, someone curiously came over and asked, "Old Wang, what's making you so happy?"
Grandpa Wang, with his booming voice and a touch of pride, exclaimed, "Of course I'm happy! Xiao Chen's university acceptance letter has arrived! I'm so happy for him!"
What!
University acceptance letter!
Chen Zhiyuan got into...it seems to be Jiangnan University, which is a top-tier university!
Many people immediately stopped in their tracks and looked at Chen Zhiyuan, their eyes focused on the large, eye-catching envelope in his hand, especially when they saw the school emblem, name, and imposing gate of Jiangnan University.
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited and changed completely.
Someone couldn't help but shout out excitedly:
"It really is an admission letter from Jiangnan University!"
"Xiao Chen, congratulations! Your acceptance letter has finally arrived!"
Congratulations and exclamations of surprise rose and fell, creating a lively atmosphere.
As luck would have it, Zhang Hui had just returned from grocery shopping and saw a large crowd gathered at the entrance of the residential area. Curious, she quickened her pace.
A sharp-eyed neighbor spotted her and immediately called out with delight, "Zhang Hui! Come quick! Your son's university acceptance letter has arrived!"
real? !
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hui was overjoyed and felt an overwhelming surge of excitement. She unconsciously quickened her pace and almost jogged through the crowd.
Soon, she saw her son surrounded by everyone.
Chen Zhiyuan also saw his mother, and immediately raised the large envelope in his hand high, his voice full of joy: "Mom! My acceptance letter has arrived! Look!"
