Kevin gets out of the car and gives wall a call. Then wall comes out and takes Kevin into the red lantern pub.
Kevin also asked wall if the pub was owned by a Chinese. Wall told him that it was not owned by a Chinese, but a RB.
Time's cultural salon was held in the hall on the third floor of the red lantern teahouse. When Kevin walked to the door, he really felt a literary atmosphere. Around the hall were pasted some old-fashioned poems. Kevin probably glanced at them. Some of them were Shakespeare's.
In addition, all the decorations inside are also arranged in the aspect of literature and art. It is really a cultural salon. When you are here, a cultural atmosphere has come.
Time magazine invited about 30 writers to attend this year's cultural salon, all of whom came from different parts of Britain. However, wall told Kevin that Kevin was the only one from Edinburgh. It made Kevin feel a little proud.
These 30 writers have been here for a long time, and Kevin is the last one to arrive. Kevin follows wall and finds that ten of the thirty writers are women. And not all of them are pretty.
But at this time, he found not only a beautiful woman, but also a familiar figure. Yes, the man who just helped him pay for the taxi. It's the man who just laughed at him for not being qualified to participate in the noble cultural salon. So Kevin went over and said hello.
"Hi, friend, we meet again." Kevin patted each other on the shoulder and said.
The man turned around, his face full of surprise.
"You... You're here anyway. Oh, I remember wall said that one of his nephews is coming here today to learn how to write a good article. Are you wall's nephew? " The man said.
"No, my friend, I'm not wall's nephew. I'm also a writer, and I'm here to attend this cultural salon. " Kevin said seriously.
"What? You say it again The man couldn't believe his ears. You know, a few minutes ago, he also laughed at Kevin, saying that this is a noble activity that cultural people participate in, and if he appears, it will cause others to laugh. But now Kevin's actually here.
"My friend, I'm also a writer. I think I'm here to attend this cultural salon. Nice to meet you again. Oh, thank you for just paying for my taxi. " Kevin said for sure.
"How can it be? I've been in time's culture salon for five years. In these five years, I've never seen you, nor heard from them." The man said.
This man is Bogut. He is one of the columnists of time magazine. Before time magazine signed up with Kevin to write a column, there was only one column called "talk about life". All the articles in this column were written by Bogut.
Bogut has also accumulated a lot of fans in time, so many people buy time just to read his articles. Because of this, Bogut has become a frequent guest of time's cultural salon.
In fact, as Bogut said, he is familiar with many editors and chief editors of time. Over the years, every time I attended this cultural salon, I made a list in advance and announced it to each other. Bogut had seen the names of the participants before he set out. Although not all of them were familiar with it, they still knew about it.
But how can this young looking guy appear here? Is he a writer? But what excellent works can such a young man write? What can it do for time?
Wall was just busy talking to a writer and didn't notice Kevin talking to Bogut. Now when I come back, I am also very surprised.
"Kevin, do you know Bogut? That's great. You two happen to be contributors to two time columns, and now you know each other. That would be less of my introduction. " Said wall.
"No, Mr. wall. Mr. Bogut and I were only in the same taxi before we started. We didn't know each other." Kevin explained.
"What, dear Mr. wall, you just said he was a time columnist《 Isn't time always one column? Isn't this column written by me all the time? When did it become two columns? " Bogut wondered.
"Oh, that's what the company decided today. Now the sales volume of time magazine is good, so we decided to add one more column to meet the needs of major readers. And this column is written by Kevin. " Wall explained.
"What? Is he going to write it? Mr. wall, are you sure you and your company are not confused? A column for this young boy? " Bogut simply felt incomprehensible.
How can I say that I am also a writer with a small reputation, and I got the position of a columnist by writing many articles for Time magazine at the beginning. Now that Kevin has written a column for him at a young age, Bogut can't figure it out.
"Yes, Bogut, I think it's a good choice. Kevin is a very talented writer, and his "Jane Eyre" also sells very well in the market, and has a group of loyal readers Wall said for sure.
"But it's a bit hasty for such a young writer to set up a column for him. You know, young writers have a lot of instability Bogut said.
"No, respected Mr. Bogut, Kevin's talent is very stable. Then you will find that his brain seems to be full of inspiration and never runs out. "
"Well, I hope time won't lose a lot of sales."
Even though wall has made such a statement, Bogut can't say anything. At most, he was just upset. But he also has reason to believe that the readers of time magazine always come for their own articles, and there is no need for him to be jealous of a new person. Besides, time will regret that the column for Kevin didn't attract readers. They'll get rid of this column, too.
"Well, I'm going to talk to some friends about things. Let's get to know each other first. Perhaps, there will be more opportunities for contact in the future. "
Wall said. He went to the other side.
After wall walked away, Bogut said, "guys, it turns out I'm the time's gold medal writer."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bogut. I didn't mean to fight for these or those things with you. The reason why I promised to write for time was just because of wall's face. After all, when people suspected me, he called to encourage me. " Kevin explained.
"It doesn't matter. You'll know that there's no reader writing to you."
Bogut's "letters to readers" means that when readers buy time magazine, they feel that a writer's literature has touched him, or that his writing is wonderful. Then these readers will write to time magazine and praise the writer's writing style and talent.
Bogut has written articles in time for so many years, and has received many letters from readers over the years. It's part of what he's always proud of.
So he has reason to believe that even if time magazine opens a column for Kevin, he will always get the most letters from readers.
