Chapter 443 The sequel is invincible!
Professor Tian is at the right age to break into this year. His mobility is definitely stronger than that of college students, his acceptance is not bad, and his well-informed experience is even more crushing.
But even so, she was silent for a few seconds, "Young people... young writers - Teacher Gu Lu, there are thousands of people, but I will go."
With three attributive changes in one sentence, Professor Tian's mood changed from surprise to thinking, and finally to "If it is Gu Lu, that is understandable."
After all, is it strange that a boy who wrote congratulatory messages at the age of 15 would continue writing about Tolstoy at the age of 23?
The professor was not idle either. She got up and looked up information about "Light Shines in the Dark". She had the complete Russian version of Tolstoy in her study.
There is an introductory booklet for Tolstoy acting scholars, which should contain more detailed information.
Let’s read the article first. The professor thought as he pulled down the mouse, "Teacher Xiao Gu actually wrote the preface."
[In 1890, Leo Tolstoy began to write a dramatic autobiography, which profoundly described his own family tragedy...
But whether in the play or in life, whether in 1890 when he was first created, or ten years later in 1900, Tolstoy did not find the courage to decisively end the life of the manor owner.
Even from a compromise of will, the play only writes that the protagonist is completely helpless, raising his hands and praying to God, hoping that God can help him and end his inner conflict.
…]
The preface is about two thousand words, half of which comes from Zweig and half of which is written by Gu Lu. He tells what happened to Tolstoy.
Writers have certain limitations, that is, "overestimating the readers' knowledge reserves." It seems that Zweig did not elaborate on what Tolstoy encountered in the preface, as if everyone knew it by default. Gu Lu made up for this point. What Tolstoy encountered in his later years was the triple torture of marriage, the world, and religion.
First of all, it is the earliest and consistent awakening of peasant consciousness. Tolstoy's writing is more inclined to the peasant class, but he himself cannot completely break away from the manor landlord class.
The other thing is marriage. Instigated by male students, Tolstoy wanted to leave his property to the people. Because of this, he had a fierce quarrel with his wife Beers.
I won’t say much about the Orthodox Church’s excommunication of Tolstoy. Anyway, in his later years, Tolstoy, a great writer, really wanted to pray to God for a solution.
"The words are concise and concise, and the causes and consequences are clear. I remember Professor Chen's research, and Teacher Xiao Gu was deeply influenced by neon literature." Professor Tian commented, "In fact, he also knows a lot about Mao Xiong Chinese literature."
It is easy to look up the life of a famous writer, but if you are not very interested in the writer, you will not learn more about it.
No, Professor Tian stopped mid-sentence. The fourth act of the script written by Gu Lu was too horrifying.
Such as "Forget the Gospels. Priests have long turned it into brandy to make people dull. ... No, Leo Tolstoy, between the exploited and the exploiter, between the master and the slave "The gap cannot be bridged with Bible verses." "Do you really believe that with bombs and revolvers, you can eliminate evil in the world? ... I repeat, suffering for faith is better than fighting for it." Faith kills a hundred times better.”
The argument was very fierce, like dozens of vehicles colliding in a row, or like two tanks colliding. Thoughts about Tolstoy and the situation in the Bear Country at that time were all thrown out.
It was a string of firecrackers that exploded in Professor Tian's mind. He had to set up a stage in his mind.
Open the complete works of Tolstoy published by People's Education, and this posthumous work is not included. Then open the original Russian version of the complete collection, published by LENIZDAT (Leningrad).
Including many short stories about religion written by Tolstoy, they are not included in the complete collection... The booklet specifically explains that "Although it (Light Shines in Darkness) was performed at the Mosca Opera House, it lacked the third chapter. Four acts, so it is not included.”
Fortunately, the brochure gives the route. If you are interested, you can go to leotolstou.net to check it out. Professor Tian logged in and watched the first three scenes...
How did Tolstoy die? At the age of eighty-two, he wanted to make a change by cutting himself off from his current environment, so he left home - but unfortunately he died of pneumonia ten days later.
After reading the first three acts and the fourth act of the sequel, Gu Lu's text is more like a sigh for the literary giant.
Tolstoy in the sequel is awakened: "Behind all inaction is nothing but cowardice hiding the soul."
Action was taken, and Tolstoy gained something that no one would ever give him again - "peace."
The motivation for many second creations and fan fiction is to give the original characters a relatively good ending, which is difficult to reconcile. Zweig also had this original intention in creating the work, and he completed it with extremely profound proportions and an understanding of Tolstoy.
Therefore, Professor Tian felt deeply shocked after reading it. The great writer who wrote Resurrection, War and Peace, and Anna Karenina was able to be quiet and alone with God.
"Those who love great men often stand between him and his mission. Those closest to him must stay away... This sequel can definitely be written into a textbook."
Professor Tian himself is not a fan of Tolstoy, which can be seen from the fact that he does not know Tolstoy well.
If you are a fan of caring for the elderly, you will surely burst into tears when you see this work. No exaggeration at all.
"Teacher Gu has such a high literary quality. He can not only write best-sellers but also create works like this. He is a genius."
Professor Tian believes that this book cannot be translated casually, and a lot of preparation must be made. She previously wanted to be as famous as Professor Darcy Shan, but now she has an added sense of responsibility to fully translate good works.
One week is a bit too much, Professor Tian thought. Even though there are only more than 17,000 words, time is still tight to translate every word and phrase.
When you are beaten, you must stand at attention, and when you make a mistake, you must admit it. She called Director Zhao.
The call was connected and Professor Tian explained the situation.
"No problem, I told you, just leave it to me at the end of January." Director Zhao asked uncertainly, "Professor Tian, what you said needs to be translated more carefully because of the article."
"Is this article difficult to translate, or is there some other reason?" Director Zhao read the previous article "One Night Genius, Immortal Fugitive". After reading it, he could clearly feel that the article was good.
But this time the continuation... Director Zhao read it and it was 1994 JFK - he couldn't figure it out.
In addition, Professor Tian, who was in charge of the translation, called, so Director Zhao had this question.
"If Tolstoy's original play "Light Shines in the Dark" is rated 98 points, then Mr. Gu's sequel can reach 90 points. It is so exciting, so it must be treated more carefully." Tian the professor answered.
Is the evaluation so exaggerated? Director Zhao naturally chose to believe it. After hanging up the phone, he murmured to himself, "It seems that this congratulatory message can at least hold up to a panda."
In fact, Professor Tian did not notice an explosion point, which was also deliberately hidden by Gu Lu. This is what Gu Lu himself believed was Zweig's masterstroke!
Gu Lu, who had deliberately hidden himself, got out of the car. It is better for outsiders to take the light rail when coming to the foggy city, because many tourists will vomit if they take a taxi...
This happened to the online ride-hailing service he was riding in, and the previous passenger vomited. Then the driver complained from the time he got in the car to the time he got off.
I don’t know if the driver would be happy if he told the story. Anyway, Gu Lu was smiling unkindly while knocking on the wooden fish.
Gu Lu looked at the navigation and looked for the destination. There are as many hot pot restaurants as convenience stores in Wudu, but there are relatively few mutton soup pots in Sijiucheng. The other party specifically chose the "Old Sijiucheng Authentic Mutton Copper Pot".
Gu Lu didn't know what to say. If he was an authentic person, there would be no reason to come to Fog City to eat copper pot. What's more, people from Wudu who are just studying in Sijiu City will not think about this when they return to their hometown.
The two met at the door of the store, and the other immediately recognized their former classmates. He said, "You often go to hot searches, basically post a new book, and you can be seen on the Internet. Hahaha, it feels like there are some filters added to the Internet."
"What you said is slanderous!" Gu Lu said that he never uses any filters when surfing the Internet, he is just naturally handsome.
Dou Ke made a reservation in advance and asked Gu Lu to order after sitting down. The latter said: "As long as it's meat, anything is fine."
"Let's have two portions of mutton rolls, beef rolls and chicken rolls. Brother Gu, do you have anything you like?" Dou Ke muttered while picking up the dishes, "If not, let's eat first." .”
While waiting for the food to be served, the two of them went to make dipping sauce. They needed to get some fermented bean curd in the copper pot and add sesame sauce.
By the way, there is a survey on the Internet on how to anger xx people. Among them, people from Wudu order mandarin duck and sesame sauce as dipping sauce when eating hot pot...
When I returned with the dipping sauce, the copper pot was already steaming hot.
The two sat and chatted for a while.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is quite good. On the wall are many old black and white photos of the former Four-Nine City. When you enter, there is a rickshaw on the wall of the reception room. At a glance, you can tell that it is a place with an average per capita of over 150 yuan.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
"Brother Gu, do you think I have changed a lot?" Dou Ke said, "Although it's really not as good as Brother Gu."
"Your facial features have not changed much from those in high school." Gu Lu replied.
His nickname is Tadpole, which is indeed the right nickname. His skin is getting darker and darker. On the one hand, it is the natural skin color, and on the other hand, it is running outdoors for a long time.
"It's getting black, it's getting black." Dou Ke sighed, "There's nothing we can do about this bird's work."
When the food was served, Dou Ke poured tea into the pot.
During the meeting, Dou Ke shared his work, which he called "messing around". He encountered many strange customers and mentioned strange requests.
Gu Lu also listened attentively, just like the previous online ride-hailing master. There is a type of people who like to express the unsatisfactory things in their lives very much, and they will not feel good even if they talk about it.
Say the same thing ten times and still get angry.
So why tell it to others? I want others to agree that "my life is not easy."
The dragon gate array was placed until the soup in the copper pot turned turbid, and the two of them had almost finished eating. Gu Lu thought it was time, returned the time capsule to Dou Ke, and started shooting at the same time.
"Brother Gu, it's really troublesome for you to make a trip." Dou Ke said with a smile, opened the envelope, and three questions appeared in front of the camera.
[1. Is it closer to Fudan University?
2. Have you had a campus love that stimulates passionate youthful vitality?
3. Have you joined the Etiquette Model Club? ]
"Hahaha, it was so funny when I was studying." Dou Ke's laughter was a bit harsh, because Gu Lu could hear the meaning of ridicule.
King Gulu didn't hear it wrong, he just laughed. Because of the three questions, Dou Ke failed in any of them.
"I didn't pass the Mathematical Olympiad, so I got admitted to an ordinary university. I spent my time in university just fine. The environmental engineering major was a fucking sinkhole, and now I'm messing around with my dad." Dou Ke lit up as he spoke. cigarette.
Smoking vigorously, and with the cigarette lit, Dou Ke crumpled the note paper with the three questions written on it into a ball, with special force, as if he was resentful of something.
"Can't you smoke?" Dou Ke handed over a cigarette, but the latter refused because he didn't smoke.
"It seems that this year I can only benefit myself." Dou Ke said, "Smoking this cigarette by myself can only benefit myself, but spreading it out will benefit the group."
"It makes sense. By the way, I remember that my uncle seems to be doing home appliance repair, right?" Gu Lu had this memory in his memory. The air conditioner in the classroom broke down, and it was Dou Ke who asked Dou's father to repair it for free.
"Yes, there is no future in home appliance repair. I don't even dare to say my profession when I go out on a blind date." Dou Ke said, "In addition, I often encounter plague gods during the repair process, so I spend the whole day having fun."
It's a bit exaggerated. From Gu Lu's point of view, it's good to have a skill in eating. Besides, repairmen can earn quite well, so the dating market should not be bad.
I don’t understand why Dou Ke is so hostile to the repairman. In any case, Gu Luxian turned off the photographic equipment, feeling that the content of the following conversation was definitely not suitable to be released.
"Today, I was asked to add fluoride to the air conditioner. It was very dangerous to climb the outer wall, so I didn't go." Dou Ke said, "I asked him to lend me 100,000 yuan and I would start a small business on my own. Because he I don’t agree. Being a repairman is dangerous and tiring, so I don’t plan for the future at all..."
Okay, Gu Lu understood. The old classmate’s resistance to the repairman came from his father.
Gu Lu listened, acting as an emotional trash can. His hands were not idle either. After Dou Ke finished drinking the tea in the cup, he refilled it. His movements were comparable to those of a Haidilao clerk.
"Lending money is not giving it directly."
"I am the only child in the family, and I don't understand why I don't agree."
"His nephew came to borrow money, 50,000 yuan, and gave it to him without saying a word. Is the nephew closer than his biological son?"
……
After talking for a few minutes, Dou Ke suddenly grabbed Gu Lu's hand, expecting to borrow money the next second.
I never thought it was Dou Ke who said, "Brother Gu, stop pouring. You've already poured me eight cups of tea. My stomach is bloated."
"Really? The main reason is that I don't know how to comfort people, so I can only pour some tea." Gu Lu said.
Douke got up and went to the toilet.
Gu Lu looked at the other person's back as he hurried away, and waited for the other person to come back and sit down.
It was almost done, and Dou Ke was ready to pay.
"Tadpole, do you look down on your uncle's work?" Gu Lu's question seemed casual, but it made Dou Ke startled.
