Chapter 387 Not worth studying? !


Chapter 387 is not worth studying? !

Speaking of deputy editor Liu Yong, we must talk about Editor Kang of People’s Literature. Because an interesting story happened between the two——

The Writers Association held a seminar, and all the secretaries of the Secretariat were present, as well as members of the presidium. This meeting was also composed of leaders from the Creative Research Department, Modern Literature Museum, Lu Xun College and other units.

Not to mention that the meeting is useless, preliminary regulations on the supervision of online literature were drafted through such seminars.

Only by becoming "one of our own" can online writers enter the Lu Academy in batches to study. The Mao Dun Literature Award can create a new humanities award specifically for online literature.

There were more than 40 people present, but only seven writers. What are the identities of the rest of the people? Not to mention editor-in-chief Kang and deputy editor-in-chief Liu Yong, the chief and deputy editors of People's Literature.

Suggest a few individually for the students to take a look at the situation.

The tallest person in the second row is Dr. Hua, a professor at the Academy of Social Sciences and a professor at Shandong University of Science and Technology, engaged in postdoctoral research in folklore.

The lady sitting next to Dr. Hua has gray hair, but her temperament cannot be concealed. Director Di, who specializes in the study of Lu Xun and Xiao Hong, is currently the deputy director of the Film and Television Literature Committee of the Writers Association. At the same time, he has also served as the director of the Lin Jinlan Short Story Award Jury for many times.

Lin Jinlan and Wang Zengqi are two elder brothers in the literary world. Even if there is no such thing as Mr. Wang in the parallel world, Mr. Lin's value has not decreased at all. If Wang Zengqi is good at prose and essays, then Lin Jinlan is the master of short stories in China. The prose "Spring Breeze" was selected as a junior high school textbook, but I believe most people have no impression of it. Readers and passers-by rarely talked about it, and even the Lin Jinlan Short Story Award was not well-known, so when Gu Lu set his own goals, he didn't even count it.

"Director Di's research on Teacher Xiao Hong should be the most detailed in our country. The description of the black hand is so shocking. Using certain parts of the body as intentions is a research direction worthy of advancement." Professor Chen praised, "I If I remember correctly, "Hand" is one of the few works by Teacher Xiao Hong that describes middle school life, right?"

"It's the only one, one of the few." Director Di said with a smile, ""Hand" is Teacher Xiao Hong's only work describing middle school life."

Director Di sat down, and everyone present was still looking at the documents and the copied manuscript of "Hand". [None of our classmates have ever seen hands like this: blue, black, and seemingly purple; the color changes from the nails to the wrists. ] The first sentence of the opening chapter is straight to the point.

This type of copying is used for research and not for commercial purposes, so it is completely fine. There are even many question teachers who use it to prepare test papers. Those who are particular will only give you one or two hundred, and those who are not particular will not tell you at all.

It took about ten minutes until almost everyone had finished reading. After another discussion, the content was quite informative. If it's too dry, I won't excerpt it for fear that everyone will choke.

Secretary-General Tian Mengge, who presided over the meeting, reminded the next teacher with his eyes and gestures to start recommending himself.

"I will share next. My topic today is about a relatively unpopular writer in China." Editor Kang stood up and distributed the copied manuscripts to everyone.

When sending it to his vice president Liu Yong, Editor Kang deliberately avoided eye contact.

Unpopular? It was so unpopular that Director Di, Dr. Hua and others all lowered their heads to read the title of the manuscript "On Gu Lu's changes in the intentional use of marginalized people [dwarfs]."

Subtitle: A preliminary overview of Gu Lu’s current creative stage

Sure enough, Lao Deng, you still can’t hold it back! Liu Yong tried his best to make Xiaoxiao feel at ease without showing it on his face. After all, he is his immediate boss, and he is in a hurry... What should he do? But the teasing look was still necessary, and Liu Yong stared at him with piercing eyes. I want to make fun but also pay attention to the scale, eh? Isn't this similar to falling in love? You have to tease and worry about the other person getting angry.

People can easily feel the hot gaze of others. Editor Kang felt it, but ignored it directly, ""The Dancing One-inch Master" and "Dwarf", the former was written by Gu Lu in 2013, and the latter was just released this month. Works published in "People's Literature"

oh? Gu Lu has already come to the table to eat? Dr. Hua’s thoughts also represent the views of most people present.

Among literary qualities, qualifications and fame, Gu Lu only satisfied the last one. To be on the table, at least two things must be met. Look at Xiao Hong, Ma Shitu, Lao She, etc., all of whom have won literary awards by name.

There were many frowns on the scene, but considering Editor Kang's status, no one said anything. Don’t look at the monk’s face but look at the Buddha’s face. So who is the monk and who is the Buddha? Of course, monks are monks and Buddhas are Buddhas.

There was only one person at the scene who had a different look, Professor Chen from Guangzhou Foreign Studies University. What's going on, brother, are you here to steal your job? Professor Chen watched carefully.

Kang Fu spoke, "The most famous dwarf image in our domestic works in modern times should be An Xue'er. Chi Zijian's "The Top of the Mountains" portrays An Xue'er. As a dwarf, she was looked down upon by the people in the town. He was an immortal, but after being raped, he was despised by the villagers. Chi Zijian used his identity as a dwarf to design an absolute weakling in terms of fate. The one-inch mage A Lu in Gu Lu's early stage had the same thinking as Chi Zijian. A weak person, but the writing method used in "Dwarf" many years later is misplaced, and the dwarf is short and ugly..."

The narration is slightly different from the manuscript, more colloquial to be precise.

Along with Editor Kang's narration, people who were not so serious also became more serious. On the one hand, it really had something to say, but on the other hand, they were distracted and finished reading the two articles on the one-inch mage and the dwarf. The progress between the two is really a bit exaggerated.

There was a lot of crackling narration, and Editor Kang talked about the second half.

"I personally divide Gu Lu's current creative career into two stages. The first stage is the 'storytelling stage'. Telling good stories is the basic skill of a writer, such as Chandler, Maugham, Lao She and other writers , are all good storytellers. This is the case in Gu Lu's first stage, whether it is the fairy tale novel "The Little Prince" or the popular science work "Planet Country". However, from Gu Lu's science fiction novels, the main theme is still interesting. His judgment on the development of science and technology has revealed his sensitivity in this regard.”

"So in the second stage, I think we can start with "Gnome", and the 'world-seeing stage' incorporates thoughts about books into the novel." Editor Kang said, after he finished speaking, he looked around. Want to confirm everyone's feedback, brackets, skip Liu Yong.

Bang bang bang——

There was a round of applause.

This is not the key, because in the current environment, even relying on the defense will have applause. Mainly because of everyone's expressions, Editor Kang was very satisfied. Most people applauded and nodded, especially Dr. Hua.

Why is Dr. Hua’s nod more valuable? Because he is tall, has a long neck, and has a head like a giraffe, he looks instantly recognizable.

"Editor Kang's research on Gu Lu should be the most pioneering in our country, and the first to have a complete system." Director Di began to talk about business, as if he didn't even change the words, and the following words were the final words: " Moreover, we really need to pay attention to young writers. They are very good!”

Do you want to listen to what you are saying. If Professor Chen didn't have a good personality, he would be angry right now! Because he once bound his research paper on Gu Lu into a volume and published it internally. What does it mean to be the first, the most pioneer? !

Professor Chen seems to be a mute eating Coptis chinensis. Of course, he is not a mute. He must talk about it carefully in a while.

"The text played with in "One Inch Master" is already very skillful. The weird and crazy atmosphere is vivid on the page, but "Dwarf" is a bit back to nature." Dr. Hua said, "After listening to Editor Kang's manuscript, I feel The biggest difference in Gu’s writing is that he incorporates dialectical thinking into his writing.”

"It seems that there was a controversy before this article. It seems that Yan Feng even came out to praise it. It is indeed worthy of praise."

"There is no falsehood in the reputation. He was once praised by Renren Daily as the number one student writer in China." Liu Yong applied to join the Kua Kua group.

However, there were some minor objections. Editor Lin from "Yanhe" spoke up. Friends who often submit articles that are rejected should know that "Yanhe" is the best literary journal in Shaanxi Province, and to put it more clearly, it is from the northwest region. Where there are people, there may not necessarily be chivalry, but there must be groups for warmth. Gu Lu should have the support of the Sichuan and Chongqing literary circles and Peking University.

"Well, this short story line is a bit arbitrary for my writing career," Editor Lin said. He likes to cough dryly before speaking, as if to attract people's attention before speaking.

He continued: "Just one piece of "Gnome" can't explain anything. No writer has yet to burst with inspiration."

Very good, most of the more than 40 people present were ready to watch the show. If not necessary, which team should I stand on?

Before Editor Kang could speak, Professor Chen spoke first.

"I have been studying Xiao Gu for several years, so I should have a better say in Xiao Gu's issues." Professor Chen said, "Editor Kang's distinction between Xiao Gu's career as a writer is indeed a bit too rude. For details, see my two years It can be seen from Qianfa's paper "Study on the turning point of Gu Lu's career as a writer"

"?" Where are you from? Both editors-in-chief Conlin were confused.

"As for the burst of inspiration, Editor Lin has probably never read "One Night Genius", right? It is an article that was highly praised by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Biographical novel -" Professor Chen said, "Xiao Gu sorted out the historical context and arranged the rhythm of the article. , the level is above "Gnome". The previous works "Immortal Fugitive" and "Antarctic Battle" were not long ago named by the central media as Xiao Gu's works five years ago."

"One article really can't explain anything. Including Young China, Xiao Gu has seven or eight articles. Isn't that enough to explain the problem?" Professor Chen asked rhetorically.

Okay, both professors Kang Lin understand it, but Professor Chen is opposed to it.

To be honest, some famous literary practitioners are envious, jealous and hateful of Gu Lu's "writing on behalf of the country", and Chief Editor Lin is one of them. Therefore, he has not watched the Diplomatic Quartet, and more importantly, he does not dare to deny it. It is the country's affirmation of Gu Lu.

"I think Xiao Gu will definitely win the Lu Xun Literature Award next year." Professor Chen added as if it was not enough.

After finishing speaking, Editor Kang said nothing.

Editor Lin wanted to speak, but for a while there were no words.

The scene was very embarrassing for a time.

"I remember Chairman Tie (Tie Ning) said that literary discussions should be full of gunpowder. It seems that our discussion is on the right track!" Secretary-General Tian Mengge, who presided over the meeting, broke the awkwardness.

And he also took the initiative to pass on the message, "I didn't expect that Professor Chen not only researched Spanish literature, but also had such in-depth research on Gu Lu!"

"Definitely, I have been studying Xiao Gu's works since 2013." Professor Chen pretended to be modest and made a gesture of the universe with his fingertips. "It has been almost six years now, so it is not too in-depth. It can only be said that it is better than most People know better.”

I'm on point, right? Editor Kang was also speechless. Why did he spend all these years working on Gu Lu?

Editor Kang’s confusion was expressed through another editor.

"Studying Gu Lu for five or six years? Gu Lu is still just a best-selling author," said Editor Lin.

Are you looking down on Gu Lu? This is your thesis that denies labor and capital, and you denies our project at Guangzhou Foreign Studies University!

Destroying a person's future is like killing one's parents, and ruining a person's subject is like changing from eight in the morning to six in the morning. Although Professor Chen controlled his tone very well, you can still tell that he is excited.

"'The Little Prince', 'Mr. Holmes', 'Flowers for Algernon', 'Flatland', and I don't know the new works released on Neon, but these four novels have completely different styles. Cover up the author's name or even It feels like it was written by four people. "Professor Chen said, "Isn't this behavior of completely changing the style of writing a book an isolated case? If there are no isolated cases in the literary world, what else is worth studying?"


Editor Lin really got on top today because he didn't know much about Gu Lu, while Professor Chen across from him knew Gu Lu very well. This argument is entirely about using one's own shortcomings to attack other people's strengths.

It seems to make sense... Editor Kang thought to himself, not only the medium and long stories, but also the short stories have two completely different styles.

It does seem worthy of study!

That's right, decades later, the title of Gu Xue's greatest researcher and most powerful enemy was inspired by Professor Chen himself.

"The meeting is over, I will definitely take a good look at Professor Chen's paper." Editor Kang said.

Editor Lin took a deep breath and said, "I am also grateful to Professor Chen for popularizing science. Otherwise, I would never have known that the research value of this young genius is so high."

Very good. Professor Chen looked at the two chief editors and said nothing. He achieved his goal, said you're welcome and sat down.

The next one was the secretary-general who reminded me that he had a very good handle on the process of the event. The writer who stood up to discuss was Shen Congwen, and Shen Congwen was also an all-rounder. I was writing novels at first, but later I was assigned to work in a history museum, and I directly wrote the book "Research on Ancient Chinese Costumes", which filled the gap in this section at the time.

The legendary nature of the character is destined to make a writing career worthy of discussion.

This month’s seminar lasted four hours in total.

Sixteen people shared on the spot - the first four or five people had about half an hour to discuss, and it became faster later on. All that remains is to hand in the manuscript and share it afterwards.

It is said to be shared after the fact, but everyone knows it. Who knows whether they have seen it or not?

After the meeting ended, many people stood up and beat their backs, and then gathered in twos and threes. It's not that I'm in a hurry. The main reason is that today's seminar was a bit exciting, so I wanted to discuss it with my friends.

Even though they are all Kochi intellectuals, Kochi are also human beings. With friends, no one can resist the temptation to comment on what happened today.
