一次,一个名叫吴庚舜的年轻人拿着一篇论文求教于钱钟书先生。钱先生给予了热心的帮助,一字一句斟酌修改。文章发表前,这个年轻人非要钱钟书一起署名,钱钟书不肯答应,最后在年轻人的一再要求下,才同意署名,但要求署一个“郑辛禹”的笔名。 Once, a young man named Wu Gengyin took a thesis and asked for advice on Mr. Qian Zhongshu. Mr. Qian has given ardent help and revised it by word. Before the article was published, the young man had to sign with Qian Zhongshu. Qian Zhongshu refused to agree. At the end of the day, he agreed to sign the young man’s repeated request. However, he requested a pseudonym named Zheng Xinyi.
