With the official release of "Chinese Writers", "Hunting" is like a bomb that exploded in the literary circle!
The shock wave spread from Yanjing to northern Shaanxi.
As soon as Chen Zhongshi saw "Hunting", he even put aside the "White Deer Plain" he had on hand and browsed it over and over again.
Adhering to the idea that "pleasure alone is not as good as happiness among everyone", I can't wait to share this novel with Lu Yao.
Fortunately, Lu Yao had just woken up when he came to visit.
From the day he started writing "The Ordinary World", he wrote from night to day every day, and then slept from day to afternoon. For more than two years, he did this almost every day, and would not rest until he completed a task of at least 5,000 words. Even to save time, I eat steamed buns with green onions.
So much so that the whole person feels like he is seriously ill. Sometimes he is so tired that he cannot even lift his head.
When Chen Zhongshi saw his sick appearance, he was completely shocked:
"Lu Yao, are you sick? How did you become like this? ”
“It’s okay.”
Lu Yao waved his hands feebly and said: "I've just been busy finishing the novel recently and stayed up a few nights."
Chen Zhongshi helped him to the bedside, "You must take care of yourself, your body is The capital of revolution."
"I know, I know."
Lu Yao was lying on the bed, "I'm not in a hurry. I made an appointment with Yanzi at the age of 40. I used to write a masterpiece that surpassed "Life" and then let it be published in "People's Literature", but you see now, I am still standing still, but Yanzi has completely left me behind. If I don't catch up, I'm afraid I will never be able to compare with him in this life.”
“I can’t say that, looking at the entire literary world, almost no one can compare with his output.”
Chen Zhongshi said a few words of relief.
"There is also quality, which is also the highest level in the entire literary world and is the benchmark for our Chinese writers!"
Lu Yao rubbed his bloodshot eyes, "I'll tell you the truth. Said that the pressure brought by Yanzi is one of the motivations for me to work so hard to create.”
"I may not have felt like you before, but now, I suddenly feel this pressure."
Chen Zhongshi empathized and said: "I even began to doubt the magical reality novels I created in seclusion. Is it possible to be as good as him? ”
Lu Yao was curious: "Why do you say that?"
"Yanzi recently published a masterpiece of magic, no, hallucinatory realism!"
Chen Zhongshi handed over "Chinese Writers" past.
Lu Yao was shocked, as if the light had returned, and his tired body immediately became energetic.
At this moment, Jia Pingwa, Mo Shen and others, as if they had agreed, came to the Northern Shaanxi Federation of Literary and Art Circles to share the dialect's "Hunting" with them in the name of a visit. Friends, all of a sudden, the cave dwelling where Lu Yao lived became lively and noisy.
Everyone was closely surrounding "Hunting" and discussed a lot, such as human nature and animal nature, nature is good and nature is evil, children's words are unbridled, etc.
These topics are also concerned and hotly discussed by editors, writers, critics, and theorists across the country.
Moreover, attention was also paid to several other articles on the literary theory of "illusion realism" published in the same period by "Chinese Writers".
One of the articles, even a brief discussion written by Fang Yan himself, is just like when he introduced "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and magical realism into the country in "October". On the basis of "magic realism", the trend of hallucination realism once again set off.
And Feng Mu naturally did not miss this great opportunity to make a name for dialect, hallucinatory realism, and "Chinese Writers".
In the name of the editorial department of "Chinese Writers", he hosted a seminar on dialect creation at the Overseas Chinese Building in Yanjing.
Wang Zengqi, Zhang Guangnian, Ding Ling, Wang Meng, Shi Tiesheng, Zhong Acheng, Radar, Zeng Zhennan and others who were present all spoke highly of it. "The Hunt is a chilling novel that reveals the complexity of human nature and the ruthless siege of society on individuals through a simple lie. It makes people feel the despair of human nature and the cruelty of society in a trembling way. From beginning to end, it is... There is no bloody depiction. "
"There is only the entanglement and contrast between truth and lies, good and evil, and thus the analysis of the soul and the understanding of human nature. Torture presents readers with a real yet absurd, fictitious yet realistic world of a snow-white town that is both dew and lightning."
"The final gunshot at the end of the novel is the highlight of the entire work. Even after reading the novel, the sound of the gunshot lingers in the reader's mind for a long time and is difficult to dissipate. All questions return to one question, 'Is the theory of good nature or evil nature? '"
"..."
""Hunting" is undoubtedly the Chinese literary work that best localizes magical realism!"
It is not only the "Literary News" that does The whole report was published, and newspapers such as "Literary Newspaper", "Wenhui Daily", and "Yenjing Daily" all commented heavily.
After all, such a novel is unique in the entire literary world across the country.
After reading "Hunting", many writers have the same thought in their minds: Damn it, can a novel be written like this?
For a time, dialect pointed out a new literary path to a large number of pioneer writers who were fascinated and researched magical realism.
Just when everyone wanted to get more insights and opinions about hallucinatory realism from Fang Yan’s mouth, he quit and left.
I packed my luggage early and headed south with Bai Ruoxue and Han Yuemin, heading to eastern Guangdong together.
Han Yuemin is attending this year's autumn meeting to find overseas cooperation for 101 hair growth serum, especially in the Japanese market.
Fang Yan and Bai Ruoxue only stayed in Yangcheng for a day or two, and then took a boat back to Xiangjiang.
At this time, wherever there is a radio playing in the streets and alleys, you can often hear the Cantonese or Mandarin version of "Men Should Be Strong", and the major theaters in eastern Guangdong are still showing "Once Upon a Time in China". , film runners running with copies can be seen everywhere.
Since Dialect provoked a national debate on “entertainment films” at the beginning of the year, the situation is becoming increasingly clear.
Nowadays, the movies that sell copies very well and have the highest number of moviegoers are basically entertainment movies, and almost all of them are Kung Fu movies, such as "The Flying Thief of Emei", "Kapok Kasaya", "The King of Southern Boxing", " "Xiajiang Suspicious Shadow", "New Fang Shiyu"...
Although they are not mature commercial films, they undoubtedly show the unprecedented enthusiasm and demand of the broad masses of people for entertainment films.
The last straw that broke the anti-entertainment film camp in the film industry was "Once Upon a Time in China". Not only was it the various astonishing box office data and positive news that were frequently reported back to the mainland from Hong Kong, but also the The film broke the copy record held by "Shaolin Temple" in the Mainland.
The number of 16mm and 8.75mm copies both exceeded 2,500!
The number of 35mm copies has also become the first domestic film to exceed 500 copies!
Facts speak louder than words. The entertainment film debate has been fiercely fought for half a year. In the end, the entertainment film faction won a big victory. More and more studios have reduced their investment in literary films and put more Entertainment films, especially kung fu films, have been planned, such as "The Heroes of the Yellow River" by West Film Studio.
The only flaw is that when "Once Upon a Time in China" was released, it just missed the selection for this year's Golden Rooster Awards.
Bai Ruoxue couldn't help but feel sorry for Gong Qian. With the image of "Thirteenth Aunt", she would have the chance to defend the title of Best Actress again no matter what.
"Without the golden rooster, there are still hundreds of flowers."
Fang Yan said: "Don't feel sorry for you, Sister Gongjie. If not, there is still "Stewardess". It must not be a problem to be shortlisted for the Feitian Award."
"When I get to Xiangjiang, I will tell Sister Gong Cong all the good news I heard in the mainland."
A smile appeared at the corner of Bai Ruoxue's mouth.
“You must say it, but you must also do it.”
Fang Yan glanced at the darkening sky and said, "We have to hurry up and operate the yen in September." (End of Chapter)
