"You may have misunderstood me," Zhang Heng said. "I asked for writing, not to be a second person, but to use these skills to write my own story."
Hemingway was a little surprised. "Listen to what you mean, besides me, you're going to ask a lot of people for advice?"
"Why, is there any taboo in it?"
"That's not true. In fact, most of the people in this manor hope that their writing style can be accepted by more peers, especially the creators of the younger generation. Literature itself is handed down from generation to generation. We people, every generation, actually stand on the shoulders of our predecessors and touch up on tiptoe, but..."
Hemingway said, "but the people who can come to this manor are the writers who have formed their own style. In other words, they have explored their own way. Generally speaking, unless there are any major changes in the process, everyone will go the same way. This is why I said I didn't want to teach you before. After all, it's one thing to discuss and communicate, and another thing to learn.
Hemingway pause, "and my personal style is too strong, I'm worried that it will affect your way, not to mention that you plan to consult other people again. I can understand your feelings when you just came here. In fact, you are not the first one to have such a plan. After all, it's rare to have a place where all the best writers in the world can gather together If you are confused by this and give up your own way, it will not be worth the loss. "
Hemingway was not a meddler. In fact, if it wasn't for Zhang Heng's good shooting skills, he would go out hunting with him in the evening without saying a word. Besides, he was quite good at his temper during the time, so he didn't want to say so much.
However, what he didn't expect was that his painstaking admonishment in exchange for Zhang Heng's simple sentence, "I haven't found my way yet."
“…………”
Hemingway choked on it for half a minute before he said, "haven't you published a novel and made great achievements? Although you do look very young, there is no shortage of young talents in this industry. No, it is because you are young enough to be invited into this manor that your talent is even more evident. "
"In fact, it was a complete accident that I was able to come in." Zhang Heng told the truth, "if the college entrance examination composition does not count, I have not written any story."
"A piece of white paper." Hemingway had a strange expression on his face. "If you don't lie, boy, the next thing will be very interesting."
"What's interesting?"
Hemingway didn't answer Zhang Heng's question this time. He said to himself, "from today on, he will accompany me to hunt every Wednesday and Saturday to teach me how to shoot as accurately as you do."
"Well, I'm not sure I have enough time, and as I said before, I can't get much fun out of hunting." Zhang Hengdao.
"You have to have enough time, because this is the tuition fee you need to pay for learning to write with me, and it's not just me. I'll bring my friends to teach you. Most of the people I met at the banquet in Paris were idiots, but it's undeniable that there were some real people among them, and some of them came to this villa, Besides, I've been here for a long time. Although I don't take part in group activities and have made some new friends, the rest of the people in the villa will depend on your own efforts. "
"Thank you." Zhang Heng was just trying, but he didn't expect that Hemingway not only agreed, but also had extra gains. Hemingway didn't talk about the author he knew in the villa. Zhang Heng's correct memory of what he said about his strong friends in Paris included Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald.
He died in Los Angeles at the age of 44. However, no one can deny his incomparable talent. Haruki Murakami highly praised him. In Norwegian forest, he mentioned the Great Gatsby several times as the most valuable novel.
Different from his friend Hemingway's succinct and straightforward words, Fitzgerald's novels have beautiful rhetoric, every sentence is as elegant as a poem, with deep charm. If you learn rhetoric, there is no better teacher than Fitzgerald.

When Zhang Heng returned to his residence, it was late in the night, and the dutiful hobbit housekeeper was waiting for him at the door with an oil lamp.
Seeing that he came back, he handed him a key with room number printed on it, and then took him all the way to the room.
Zhang Heng put the key into the keyhole, opened the door, and found that it was a suite, with a living room, a bedroom, a bathroom, and a study facing the garden for writing and reading.
What surprised Zhang Heng even more was that the decoration and design inside were all in the style of the 21st century. In addition to the computer he had asked Geim for before, there were game machines and projectors inside, and the socket on the wall also had electricity.As if she knew what he was thinking, the Hobbit housekeeper said, "every room here is different. The manor has always been committed to creating a perfect creative environment for every writer. If you have any other needs, you can always tell me that as long as you don't leave the manor, you can be satisfied."
With another bow, she left the room and closed the door.
Zhang Heng didn't think about it any more. He went directly into the bathroom and washed away the dirt and sweat. Then he opened the wardrobe, picked a set of pajamas from inside, turned off the light and went to bed.
The next morning, Zhang Heng went to the room of the female writer of fantasy bestseller, and had breakfast with the latter. Then, according to the agreement, the female writer of fantasy bestseller introduced Zhang Heng to a great person she spoke of.
Shakespeare, as the most prestigious and well-known author in human history, has been entangled with too many mysteries.
After all, the 16th century is too far away from now, and people of later generations can only try to restore the legendary life of this writer from a few words of history. However, even the most accepted version of Shakespeare today, many people still doubt its authenticity.
But in this copy, Shakespeare is sitting in front of Zhang Heng, eating fruit while watching two girls playing in the water not far away.
