Chapter 82 Temporarily Staying in the Capital
The General Political Department Song and Dance Troupe truly deserves to be called the flower of military arts.
Yu Zhen, Zhang Fushi, Chief Engineer Luo, and other visitors from Shanghai enjoyed a banquet in the evening, and then, under the special arrangement of the delegation leader, they had a wonderful song and dance show in the auditorium.
During the event, Yu Zhen was invited to the stage amidst thunderous applause. He then took the opportunity to recite his new work, "The Ideal Era," which received high praise.
They were finally able to relax completely.
The incident of going to Beijing to appeal to the emperor was, in a way, quite an extra gain for Zhang Fushi and his group. They not only gained face in Shanghai, but also gained substance, and they certainly made a name for themselves.
After all, both Tsinghua and Peking Universities suffered a major setback.
They relaxed.
But starting that night, the Beijing literary circles, especially the literary circles, suddenly became filled with alarm and fear.
The Tsinghua and Peking Universities were also suddenly struck by a major earthquake.
The first news to emerge was undoubtedly the outcome of Vice Dean Yan's case. All his positions, status, and roles within the university were stripped away completely.
Whether further action would result in imprisonment for openly making false accusations remains to be seen.
Given that the person is already in the hospital's intensive care unit, mentally confused, and somewhat neurotic, the school has already quickly released the results of its investigation.
The second unluckiest person was Wei Yuan, who mourned Mao Zedong.
This thing really did run right into a machine gun emplacement.
He tried to show off but ended up getting roasted instead.
It's true, I'm cursed with bad luck; my misfortune has reached its peak.
That very night, several men in Zhongshan suits came to his door and took him away from his home to assist with the investigation.
At the same time, several Playboy magazines with eye-catching, Western-style covers, as well as more than a dozen self-recorded tapes of popular foreign songs, were also confiscated from the house.
As relevant departments conduct further in-depth investigations and stricter checks,
Newspapers like "XX City Daily" were among the first to publish sensationalist rumors about Yu the Great, vehemently criticizing the supposed prosperity of Yu's science fiction writing, and even maliciously fabricating false accusations to smear the original intentions of the Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House in establishing and holding the "Xinghan Cup" National Science Fiction Writing Competition...
Such inside stories, which were often used by artists both inside and outside the circle as an excuse to engage in malicious propaganda, are increasingly coming to light.
The truth is shocking.
The following day, relevant staff members brought a thick case file to Director Qin to report the situation and reveal a shocking truth.
It turns out that Yu Zhen was urgently summoned to the Tsinghua and Peking University campuses that day.
The reason why Wei Yuan, a senior student at the school, used an impromptu quiz to intimidate Yu Zhen was actually because he had received a phone call from his cousin Yan Shijian, instructing him to do so.
As for Yan Shijian's thoughts at the time.
He wasn't that crazy as to want to kill Yu Zhen outright.
The idea at the time was that, having heard too many related rumors in daily life, and having been a teacher and vice dean at Tsinghua and Peking University for a long time, he instructed his nephew to do such a shady thing, really wanting to take the opportunity to test the waters while showing the outside world the decisive and capable style of a university leader.
He said he wanted to make a name for himself in the industry.
He wanted to personally thwart Shanghai's plan to create a superstar, seize the opportunity to completely control Yu Zhen, and ensure that even if Yu Zhen became a star student in the computer science department, he would still have to obey his orders and be manipulated.
Prior to this, the two sides had indeed had no grudges or enemies.
However, Yan Shijian was driven by this momentary desire for control, and without any psychological hindrance, he committed such a heinous act, completely losing the most basic moral conscience of a university teacher and a highly educated person. It can be described as the most disgusting and bizarre trickery of a clown.
The major upheaval in Beijing's related circles continues.
It seems that this situation is unlikely to end anytime soon.
Zhang Fushi, Chief Engineer Luo, and several others boarded the train back to Shanghai the next day.
Yu Zhen was persuaded to stay on temporarily, and Director Qin personally called to coordinate the relevant matters.
In this situation, Zhang Fushi could only sigh helplessly and began to worry frantically that Yu Zhen would still be poached by the Beijing authorities.
There's no other way; geniuses must be handed over to the state.
Because Yu Zhen was too outstanding, after this wave of unparalleled brilliance, he was increasingly targeted by the higher-ups, and it was no longer so easy for him to escape and return to Shanghai.
Yu Zhen stayed in Beijing and temporarily resided at the guesthouse of the General Political Department Song and Dance Troupe.
The person most delighted and excited by this situation was undoubtedly Commander Shi of the General Political Department.
Wow, I've stumbled upon an unparalleled treasure!
Faced with such an arrangement, Yu Zhen was also completely powerless to resist!
Who could blame him for being so popular? He had barely entered Beijing when he was almost ruined by the top-tier universities in the country, Tsinghua and Peking University.
Now that he's the first to point out the problems with the academic atmosphere at Tsinghua and Peking Universities, the relevant departments will have to keep him in Beijing temporarily.
Since this involves the follow-up to the rectification of the academic atmosphere at Tsinghua and Peking Universities, he will definitely have to go to the schools again to take a look and personally experience whether the self-examination and self-correction within Tsinghua and Peking Universities have been effective.
Furthermore, those in power may also want to extend this approach and plan to conduct a thorough investigation of other universities as well.
That makes sense, since even the academic atmosphere at Tsinghua and Peking Universities can have such huge problems.
With so many universities in Beijing, who can guarantee that other universities haven't had problems with their academic atmosphere?
Moreover, the relevant units of the Aerospace Military Research Institute are also responding enthusiastically. Regarding the "South Heaven Gate Plan," a comprehensive five-dimensional integrated strategy encompassing air, space, ground, information, and intelligence, and integrating future offense and defense, brought back by Comrade Yuan and his two companions, the military is currently organizing elite troops to conduct thorough research and demonstration on the relevant plans.
A complete set of strategies and tactics that, in the future, will be comparable to the US's "Star Wars" program.
Good heavens! This is a national strategic plan of this caliber. How could you, Writer Yu, simply throw out an idea and then completely wash your hands of it?!
The new modern poem, "The Ideal Era," was immediately placed on the front page of the National People's Daily.
The news headline boldly proclaimed:
[Warmest congratulations to Yu Zhen, a renowned young writer and the top science student in the 1979 National College Entrance Examination, for the publication of his poem "Ideal Era," a tribute to the 30th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, written in response to the call of higher authorities.]
Wow, this is an official, top-tier public statement.
The release of this front-page headline news also means that all the rumors that have been circulating since the release of the exam results have been completely put to rest.
The official response has been the most authoritative one.
When the newspapers were published that day, the whole country was shocked. Writer Yu, you're amazing! The most authoritative official has directly stood up for you and given you their support. Now, who would still believe those rumors? Well, once a person's brain is fried, they can hardly be considered a normal person anymore.
Meanwhile, far away in Shanghai, at the Peace Hotel.
Selena Feng finally completed the translation of Yu Zhen's third science fiction work, "The Truman Show 3: Resident Evil".
Since we couldn't see Yu Zhen in person for a while, we didn't have the chance to play ball and celebrate together.
The two could only have a long talk over the phone.
With the manuscript finalized, a dedicated working group in Shanghai is now providing logistical support, and the five North American publishers have been eagerly awaiting the manuscript for a long time. Therefore, Selena Feng no longer needs to personally fly back to North America to handle publishing matters.
Yu Zhen was temporarily left in Beijing. After Selena Feng finished translating the manuscript and completing the handover, she was in a hurry to return to Beijing.
Yu Zhen felt a headache coming on. He knew perfectly well that this foreign woman was eyeing his body again.
However, the capital is currently undergoing a period of great upheaval, and he dares not act recklessly.
However, Selena Feng revealed her status as an international student at Yenching University, saying that she had been "skipping classes" for almost half a semester and it was time to go back to Beijing to reconnect with her teachers.
Faced with such a compelling reason, Yu Zhen was a bit dumbfounded...
