Chapter 317 Crazy Manuscript
The vehicle arrives.

A group of leaders.

Accompanied by Mr. Zhang, the leader of Wudu, and Mr. Zheng, who is in charge of education, science and technology (intellectual property), sports, archives and history, as well as officials from the education department, they are almost at Xiaolongkan.

People from other places may be familiar with Xiaolongkan. Xiaolongkan hotpot is very famous and originated from here. Although it is not very delicious...

"The inspection should not interfere with the children's studies." Leader Zheng said, and the people behind him followed.

They did not choose the original inspection time of 2012 o'clock, in order to catch the school off guard. The leaders of the Fog City Department seem to have this habit. When they suddenly inspected the villages and towns in , they stopped talking about the matter to prevent harmony.

"Face-saving projects are not acceptable. School is not a one-time deal. It requires teachers and school authorities to do their jobs well in order to educate students who are useful to society." Leader Zhang also agreed.

As the saying goes, every policy has a countermeasure. Since you can't be sure when the leader will arrive, just be in "combat readiness" all day long!
Including Gu Lu, everyone received a notice from the head teacher, with mandatory requirements - they must greet teachers from other classes when they meet them outside the classroom; they cannot hunch over in class and must sit upright; teachers absolutely cannot scold students today and must teach in a "healthy" manner. Some small rules must be followed today.

Things like this, it doesn't matter if it makes teachers and students suffer.

"How is the construction of the second campus of No. 8 Middle School going?" Leader Zhang suddenly asked. After all, it was he who agreed to the land allocation.

“We expect to start recruiting students in 2016,” said Zheng.

That's great. Leader Zhang then asked, "How is the enrollment situation at No. 1 Middle School and No. 3 Middle School this year?"

138 are the three key high schools in the Fog City. The top leaders don’t want the city to be lagging behind, and No. and No. high schools cannot fall behind.

Detailed data is not the area that Leader Zheng is involved in. The head of the education department demonstrated his professionalism, "The enrollment of No. 1 Middle School and No. 3 Middle School is very smooth, but now the first ideal of students and parents is No. 8 Middle School, which has also led to the continuous increase in the score line of No. 8 Middle School."

"Oh?" Leader Zhang showed a curious look.

"We used to have the Fog City and the Dragon Ball in the Fog City, but now there is no Dragon Ball. It has become Children's Day on June 1st." The person in charge of education knew the details.

As mentioned above, the Fog City Dragon Ball refers to the best seven key middle schools, and there are also differences among them. 138 is in the same echelon, and the other four are in the same echelon.

Why does it seem like No. 8 Middle School ascended on its own?
"In the past two years, No. 8 Middle School has perfectly achieved all-round development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor. The admission rate and student clubs are textbooks for high schools and are very popular among students and parents." The education director first gave a brief account.

Seeing that the leader was still very interested, he gave a detailed explanation:

The traditional strong community volleyball club won first place in the Fog City junior and senior high school volleyball competition.

The flag guard of the traditional strong society and the student reserve team for the flag-raising ceremony in Fog City.

The MUN Fog City won first place last year and is well-known in the southwest region.

The basketball club has an international perspective and holds overseas exchange competitions every summer and winter vacation.

Time Radio Club has reached a cooperation with the Young Pioneers Daily, allowing students to learn from professional journalists.

"There's no need to explain the publication company of No. 8 Middle School. 'Youth' is too famous," said the education director.

Indeed, no introduction is needed, Leader Zheng nodded.

There are two to three hundred copies of each issue of "Youth", and fifty of them are directly taken away by the official Wudu Qingtuanzi.

“Reading “Youth” helps us understand what the young people of the new era are thinking and what the future masters of our country want to do.” Leader Zhang set the tone.

Leader Zhang made this arrangement because of the praise given to Gu Lu and his book "On Young China" by a certain national elder.

The news didn't spread out, and the official people of the Fog City Youth League basically didn't read it seriously, but the magazine was placed wherever it was placed.

To put it bluntly, the principal of No. 8 Middle School can be replaced, but the publishing house cannot collapse, Gu Lu can graduate, but the school magazine "Youth" cannot be renamed.

"Club activities help train students' abilities. In this sense, No. 8 Middle School is truly unique." Leader Zhang exclaimed.

All of the above are outstanding not only in the foggy city, but also in the whole country, including private schools for the nobility.

"In addition, there are invisible soft powers," said the head of education. "My daughter is studying at No. 3 Middle School. The clubs there are pretty good. She joined the drama club. But I envy the Shuren Literature Club at No. 8 Middle School in particular, which can perform many good original plays for free, such as The Little Prince, Yesterday's Park, and Flowery Rice."

It was authorized by Gu Lu, but the restriction is that Shu Ren Literary Society can only perform in school and cannot make a profit.

Leader Zhang was also thinking, is it because of Gu Lu's encouragement in literature that the students of No. 8 Middle School are so vigorous and motivated? It feels like the golden age of the club.

[No. 8 Middle School, No. 8 Middle School, Forever No. 8 Middle School! ] A banner with yellow characters on a red background was hung at the school gate, and a group of people walked to the gate while talking.

The guard understood instantly after seeing the people's clothes and postures.

It was not until the inspection team arrived at the playground that Principal Chang and Director Hu received the news and came forward to greet them.

In fact, Gu Lu is not a catfish, but a buff to be more precise. Ma Xuanyou and the Little Chef Gourmet Club will eventually become famous...

In addition to school, Gu Lu also plays a buff-like role in another field.

Bilibili website.

In the comment section of the video posted by Gu Lu, the latest remarks are different from others——

[Where? Come draw a pendant. Algernon pendants are not available.]
[I didn’t have the habit of buying keychains before, but I developed it after reading The Little Prince. I have collected all the Little Prince keychains. I can’t get the Algernon keychain at all.]
[I think I heard that there were only 10 copies of the novel when it was released—they were sold out in one morning.]
[One hundred thousand copies?! You sold more than a million copies of Flowers for Algernon, and you only sold this little. Give me more, or else people will think we can’t afford it.]
[I have a friend who gave his girlfriend's Algernon pendant to a relative's child. Is there any hope? (He's really a friend.)]
"Then congratulations, you are single now." When Wang Ban saw this comment, he also felt extremely regretful.

His father is President Wang of the New Youth Publishing House, the publisher of Flowers for Algernon. Even so, he still couldn't get the pendant.

Wang Banyou had inside information that the publishing house only commissioned the factory to produce 5 sets of white mouse key chains.

I also asked my dad, if it is so popular, why don't you rush to make it? Because according to the contract, there are only so many peripherals for promotion.

"It's hard to believe that Gu Lu has created a Gu circle in China." Wang Ban's family is quite well-off, so he often goes abroad. He knows that Neon has had Gu circles since the 90s, but it was still early in China.

Because of the weak copyright awareness, it will not be popular in at least five years. Unexpectedly, the appearance of Gu Lu broke Wang Ban's judgment.

[Ball, ball, ball! Algernon keychain 100D, little fox 80D, if interested in trading, please send a private message.] Wangban is looking to buy.

Yes, the first Internet site for millet trading in China is in the video message area. And after several months of development, it has taken shape and has a fixed format.

"Qiuqiuqiu" and "Maimaimai" represent the seller or the buyer, and D represents payment on delivery.

Soon, Wang Ban received a reply, but it was not a private message, but someone replied to his comment.

Jia Jia Jia Jia Er: [If you can sell it to me, I will buy it for 150 yuan. I really like this book! I also want to give Algernon a bouquet of flowers.]
It turns out that nicknames can be so long: [Hahaha, this is hilarious. Since you’re offering 150 yuan, the seller will definitely send you a private message.]
"Chao Gu, I actually saw Chao Gu in China, it must be fake." Is Wang Ban someone who is short of fifty yuan?
"Shit, Nana has a thesis topic!" Wang Ban suddenly remembered that he hadn't even written the thesis topic for his thesis at the School of Art of Shandong University of Finance and Economics, he had only created the document.

Studying why Gu Lu can form a surrounding industry and whether it can grow and develop is a very novel direction! Right? Wang Ban is also curious. There are many famous cartoons in China, such as "Seer", "Qin's Moon" and "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", but none of them have developed a Gu circle. Why can Gu Lu's novels be so successful? It is worth studying.

A little explanation, although there are various stationery products for Pleasant Goat and Bears, they are different from Guquan. Moreover, many of them are not authorized.

Wang Ban immediately called his girlfriend to tell her the good news.

So did the person involved, Gu Lu, know about this? Yes, after all, it has been going on for a long time, and he would check the comments on Bilibili and Weibo every once in a while.

How can you not make money when you have the chance?
Even though Gu Lu was not energetic enough, he still had some plans. He made an appointment with people from the major school to carry out a small cooperation.

Even though I'm busy, I have to try.

It also paves the way for future copyright development——

"Don't run in the hallway." Teacher Lu said this instead of the usual "Okay, get out of class is over here."

Today everyone rushed out of the classroom, and the students were like puppets being pulled by strings.

"Xiao Yuanzi, come and give me a back massage." Gu Lu shouted to Li Guyuan.

"Get out!" Li Guyuan shouted.

"You have to think about this carefully. Classmate, you don't want your secret to be known by everyone, right?" Gu Lu said.

"..." Li Guyuan was shocked. Could it be that he knew? In the end, he gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and agreed.

What a treat! Gu Lu enjoyed it. In fact, the two of them were thinking about completely different things.

"The point, yeah, right, move on."

"Oh, it feels so good."

Closing his eyes and enjoying it, Gu Lu occasionally made a comment.

But soon his boasting stopped.

"Brother Gulu, this time it's really thanks to you." Tian Xiao ran over and said.

"How to say?"

"The leader will come to see it again in the next class."

When Tian Xiao said this, the students who were still in the classroom wailed. In the last class, a leader came to check, and they were very nervous.

I have to come again. I’m so tired.

Their Class 10 is not a class from Peking University or Tsinghua University. There is no doubt that they came here because of Gu Lu.

The classmates looked at him sideways, their eyes were as sharp as swords. Even Gu Lu, who had a thick skin as thick as an iron wall, felt a little guilty.

"Well, maybe the school pays so much attention to us because there are so many handsome guys and beautiful girls in our class." Gu Lu lied.

No one believes it!
This is bad news for students, but it is undoubtedly an opportunity for teachers.

The last class was taught by Mr. Lu, who teaches mathematics, and the next class is taught by Mr. Gao, who teaches Chinese.

…………

If you are in military training, it is a sunny day; if you are on vacation, it is a rainy day; if you are writing a manuscript, it is the day before the deadline.

Gu Lu was a little late to write, so he turned on the octopus mode. In order to implement love and peace, Gu Lu's next work was "The Dunwich Horror".

Followed by "Colors of the Stars", "At the Mountains of Madness", "The Whispering in Darkness"... until "Call of Cthulhu"!
The operation is the same, with a minor change in the place name from the Dunwich Terror to the "Portsham Terror".

Actually, we have the British to thank for that.

Gu Lu, who had some free time, also paid attention to the situation abroad, and the BBC official website was full of heated discussions.

"The British are not united at all now. The Chinese are attacking the small town of Weymouth in our country! Why don't you feel angry at all? If the same thing happened in China, they would have united to resist the enemy."

"Kane Fanzelstone lives in the village of Portsham in Weymouth. Your hometown paid for your university education. Is this how you give back to your hometown?"

"I don't agree. It was Kane from The Sun who discriminated against the talented writer and his country first, and the writer was forced to fight back. Britain is an open country and I think there is absolutely no problem with that."

"The Sun's discrimination is justified, but the Chinese man's revenge is groundless. Gu should produce evidence to prove his innocence. He has confirmed the Sun's doubts."

Wait for the remarks.

To be honest, even though there are many British netizens criticizing it now, the intensity has decreased a lot. It's nothing else, Chinese writer Gu Lu is too petty, isn't it just a reporter who said a few words? He turned around and killed people with his pen.

If I get scolded severely, I'm also worried about receiving the same treatment.

Typing quickly!

What a coincidence, Portsham, a small village located in the north of Weymouth, is really close to the famous prehistoric site "Stonehenge". When Gollum found this out, he was very surprised. You know, the protagonist's family in "The Dunwich Horror" lived next to the Stonehenge on Sentinel Hill.

What is the saying that there is no coincidence in the world? Gu Lu couldn't help but sigh that the Sun reporter Kane was really a congenital Cthulhu holy body!

[The townspeople have always been afraid of that remote farm because old Vanzelstone has a reputation for practicing the dark arts...]
This novel can be said to have opened up the framework of the Cthulhu universe, because it contains the Outer God Yog-Sothoth, as well as terms such as the Old Ones, and so on.

Playful or noisy, Cthulhu's cosmology is still very amazing. You can say it is horror, but it is also a bit science fiction. You can say it is science fiction, but it is more of a psychological horror.

"The most shameful son of the Outer God, he was killed by a dog while holding a revolver. So if you travel through the world of Cthulhu, you must get a dog as soon as possible. Because dogs can identify almost all abnormalities in the world of Cthulhu."

Hey, dog, Gu Lu was halfway through writing the manuscript when he suddenly came up with a strange idea. He wanted to add a sentence describing the breed of the guard dog in the university library, and write it as a Chinese rural dog. This small change does not affect the plot at all. After all, "local dogs" were already quite popular in Europe and the United States in the 90s, and it would not affect the plot.

nailed it!
Gu Lusong breathed a sigh of relief. Why was he in such a hurry? It was not his fault. According to his arrangement, there was plenty of time to submit to the Daily Express.

But he forgot that he wrote in Chinese and needed time to translate it into English. When Yao Xiaoju came to urge him to submit the manuscript, Gu Lu was stunned.

"It's good that it's done. The Portsham Horror is much better than the gloom of Weymouth." This is what Gu Lu thought.

He stood up and stretched, feeling severe back pain. He had been sitting at school all day and typing again when he came home at night. It would be strange if he was not tired.
