Chapter 524 Pause, Intermission (6.2k)
If a thing is just a positive transmission, it will often not cause a lot of trouble, but if there is a tit-for-tat event with it, then public opinion It will be very exciting when it is passed on.
Mo Yan won the award is a typical example.
At the beginning, a large number of media could not see the direction of the wind, and basically only reported and reproduced the news that Mo Yan won the award.
So most of them only do the safest peer interviews.
The literary community has a positive view of this matter, and basically congratulations and congratulations.
Wang Yian: "Congratulations, I am very happy for Mo Yan."
Wang Meng: "This is a good thing, which shows that the achievements of contemporary Chinese writers and contemporary Chinese literature have attracted worldwide attention. .”
Peng Mingxue: "When traditional reading was challenged, Mo Yan's creation won the highest honor in world literature, which greatly encouraged writers and readers who insisted on realistic creation and firmly believed in the power of literature."< When interviewing Liu Zhenyun, his words were a little thorny:
"After Mo Yan won the award, a fire in the city gate affected the pond fish. Many people asked me how I felt, it was the same as my brother married his sister-in-law and asked me about my feelings at the wedding night.
I said I wish him a happy time. br>
Mo Yan's ability to win the award shows that at least ten people in China can also win the award. For example, Xiao Chen, it was not reported in the first half of the year. Is there a foreign author who wants to recommend him, but was rejected directly? It's an example."
As soon as this said, it seemed to have lifted some invisible shackles.
Since then, many writers were interviewed and reporters asked about their views on Mo Yan's award and Chen Linfeng's views.
"Congratulations to Mo Yan for winning the award, Chen Linfeng? I have no opinion. It is normal for him to have his own opinion at this level. I am not yet able to view the Nobel Prize with a normal mind, so I won't speak."< "Getting awards is always a good thing. Writer Chen's views have always been sharp and unconcealed. He is this age. To be honest, I am quite envious. I won't comment on his views. , hard to say."
"..."
Many writers use the method of talking about the left and right to avoid discussion and the public opinion disputes between Chen Linfeng and Mo Yan.
Chen Linfeng is a very special existence in the writer circle. His achievements are too outstanding. If we judge heroes by sales, it can be said that the combined number of people in China is quite difficult to compare with him.
And Mo Yan, now seeing that he won the Nobel Prize, he will also be a person who will ascend to the future.
Many writers adopt a strategy that no one can offend.
You great masters fight, it is better not to harm the innocent.
The media actually understand it quite well. After all, even they don’t dare to report these two people now, especially Chen Linfeng’s negative reports.
But it has been like this and there is no sales.
Readers are waiting to watch the fun.
So they interviewed Yu Hua.
This person is a big shot, and he has a good relationship with the two people in the public opinion center. I can always say a few words.
However, Yu Hua is not stupid either, so why should he offend others?
What's more, the public is concerned about this matter now, and talking nonsense will lead to scolding.
"The view on the Nobel Prize in Literature is not without controversy in China. Generally speaking, it is still the mother who says it is reasonable.
I am not as sharp as Xiao Chen, and I am still happy for Mo Yan. br>
Just Xiao Chen's words, I think many literary authors should take it as a warning. Literary creation should indeed be purer, and don't distort your ideas because of the opinions of others."
This seems to be I said something, but it seemed that I didn't say anything.
There are some people on the Internet, who think that Yu Hua also thinks that Mo Yan is not very pure and has the intention of creating for the sake of foreigners.
Another group of people held the opposite view. Yu Hua was happy for Mo Yan. He was a friend, so you should use it to do reading comprehension here?
In fact, the Internet has been arguing about this matter more and more intensely these days.
The viewpoint is quite confusing.
Many people are still very happy to hear that Chinese people won the Nobel Prize.
But because of Chen Linfeng's usual good reputation, many people also think there is nothing wrong with him.
Even among the group who are happy to win the award, they agree that literary creation should be pure and should not be flattered.
The core is whether Mo Yan will flatter the West when he wins the award, whether he should and whether he should receive the award.
This is the core of the problem.
But no celebrity has given a clear view on this issue these days.
Too sensitive.
The more sensitive the questions you face online, the more enthusiastic the discussion is.
"What's there to say about this? If you don't win the award, then you're just a joke. Besides, Mo Yan won the award with sincerity. Unlike someone, he didn't win the award. You refuse it. What's the point." "Haha, you can't win the award if you refuse. Mo Yan can win the award. I really can't say if there is any help from someone you mentioned." "
" Again Putting gold on your face, can someone's fans not be so arrogant? The Nobel Prize in Literature is not something that cats and dogs can mess with each other." "
"No one really thinks that you have won a Nobel Literature Prize is qualified to come and play. After 50 years, who will know you, a Nobel Prize winner, will you?”
"Yes, especially the Nobel Prize in Literature. Anyone who understands the value of this prize is understandable."
"..."
The debates online gradually tend to go off topic, and they began to argue. Yan and Chen Linfeng's literary status came.
But such a serious matter is the media, especially the official media, who have the most voice.
But the official media stands very steadily, only congratulations, no comments, and no sidelines.
Then it can only be seen what the two people in the public opinion center said.
On the 14th, Chen Linfeng received a call.
In fact, his phone number has not stopped these days.
Many of them were asked about his opinions, and he was perfunctory about the media.
Some friends in the industry, mainly writers and editors, also have the intention of asking questions on their phones and words.
Chen Linfeng replied the same way, "What did I think at the beginning? What do I still think now, otherwise I would not have to refuse the Nobel Prize selection in the first half of the year.
Why does Mo Yan want to receive the award? See He himself, my point of view, was finished at the beginning, and now he doesn't want to repeat it."
This is still very convincing.
Unlike what is said online, what is there to refuse if you don’t win a prize?
In the eyes of many writers in the circle.
If someone recommends you, it means you have entered the Nobel Prize selection sequence. In this case, refusing to participate in the evaluation is about the rejection of the future Nobel Prize in Literature.
You must know, how old is Chen Linfeng now, and there are at least fifty years left.
Even if there are no literary works in the future, you can wait for it.
Besides, it is actually hard to say whether Chen Linfeng had a chance this year.
When the Swedish Literature Society removes a Chinese and then replaces a Chinese, it is the candidate that Chen Linfeng specifically denied.
It is really hard to say whether there is intentional meaning in this.
In fact, many people in the industry have related speculations.
After all, compared with outsiders, domestic writers and other peers actually know better about Xiao Chen’s influence in the foreign literary circle.
When they go abroad to participate in exchanges, this is the person who often talks about the most.
Of course, what is being discussed is not the most sales series, but the only one from Chen Linfeng, and the literary work that is becoming more and more famous today, "She".
This novel has won all major literary awards in the world so far, which is really no joke.
Contrary, Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize for his work "Frog".
The popularity of the two can be said to be one world.
The more famous the writer is in China, the more he knows it.
This is also the reason why many writers keep silent when interviewing.
Mo Yan won the award, and you said they were not sour, that was just a joke.
It would be great to be able to congratulate you.
As for more specific arguments and sidelines, it’s really hard to say where to stand.
The moment the reporter asked, many writers suddenly realized something:
If someone won the Nobel Prize in Literature, they would rather Xiao Chen come, at least this would be more acceptable. .
And in this situation, Chen Linfeng received a call from President Tie.
"Aunt Tie, you are here to care about me too."
"You boy, you can really cause trouble."
Chen Linfeng said innocently, "I was young at the time, but I didn't you? It’s been a matter of many years since I know how to cover it up, but who knew that it was suddenly exposed this year. "
"Hey," Mr. Tie was very helpless, "It’s hard to deal with it just knowing this." br>
"What's so difficult about this? It's just a wave of public opinion, and it's slowly passing."
"Nothing is as simple as you think, you need to consider more."
" >Tiang Zheng said, "Winning an award is a good thing. The leader above originally wanted to send a congratulatory letter, but the news of your criticism of the Nobel Prize reached the ears of the leader, and it was embarrassing."
< br>"Why is this? Where did I get such a big face?"
"Don't underestimate yourself, especially your book "She", which is all registered on it. Many leaders have seen it."
The leader in the mouth of General Secretary Tie, the level must be so high that it is endless.
Chen Linfeng had never heard anyone say that before, he just knew it.
He was a little suspicious, "Are you still free to read books?"
"It's just that there is not much free time, only a few works can catch their eyes on. Is your book "She" number of words? It's too much, and it's also famous, so I said this."
Mr. Tie talked for a few casual words and then turned the topic to the Nobel Prize.
"There is a lot of debate now. Judging from the news I have received, many of my colleagues are a bit inclined to you, but no matter how you look at it, winning an award cannot be considered a bad thing, so you have to understand Xiao Chen." Chen Linfeng said laughing and crying, "How come you are like coaxing a child? I don't understand anything. Just say it."
"That's right, the official official still said If you want to give me an explanation, don't say anything again, so that the superiors can't get out of Taiwan."
"Don't worry, I will definitely not say anything more. I have always been this to others The statement, what should be said, I finished it back then."
Chen Linfeng was indeed this idea. He had made enough preparations, and the only thing left was to eat melons.
President Tie sighed. She always felt that she was doing this, but the superiors insisted on communicating with her.
In fact, from the bottom of my heart, she agrees with Xiao Chen's statement.
How old it is above, I know that the Nobel Prizes in Literature and Peace have many political implications.
But from another perspective, it is the Nobel Prize after all, and the people have been eager for such a prize for a long time.
Every side makes sense, but the dilemma is this.
While the two were talking, Mo Yan in Qilu Province was also talking to someone.
"Old Yu, my situation is so embarrassing now. Please give me an idea."
"How can I give me an idea? You will definitely not be satisfied with what I said."
< br>"It's okay, just tell me." Yu Hua said, "If you want to do it as I want, just learn from Xiao Chen and reject this award."
There was a silence across the microphone.
Yu Hua continued, "The Swedish Academy of Literature has announced that it means you have already won the award. If you refuse it, it means you only have the name and abandon the dispute, which proves No one can throw dirty water on your own literary purity." "Just for his words, because he refuses, I have to refuse?"
Mo Yan There was a little anger in his words.
When he first learned about Xiao Chen's interview video, he could still look at it with peace of mind.
He accused him of exposing the dark side to flatter the West, and he didn't care at all.
Children don’t know anything. In the 1980s, these things were what they were. At that time, everyone wrote this.
What, until now, has become a flatterer?
Before, Mo Yanchun thought he was ignorant.
Volkswagen wouldn't think so.
But recently, he realized the viciousness of this statement and the changes of the times.
There are so many people who don’t agree with his words.
Watching this, Mo Yan became more and more angry, "I don't agree with his point of view. The country needs criticism, only praise, will it be back to the past era?"
Yu Hua heard the resentment from the other side and could only persuade him, "I know what you think, but now it is a matter of the reputation of a literati. He is noble and voluntarily rejected the Nobel Prize. As seniors, we can also not care about a Nobel Prize. Isn't it? "
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
"Now this award is in a place of right and wrong, and everyone is most afraid of comparison." "I am not threatened by him," after hearing Yu Hua's persuasion, Mo Yan became more and more determined. "This is not for that award, but for not agreeing with his fallacy, and he can't say whatever he says is."
After speaking, Mo Yan even gritted his teeth.
Yu Hua was speechless.
He didn't want to persuade him anymore, and he knew that his friend was a little irritated and tried to fight against him.
Yes, the public opinion pressure these days is a bit too great.
Anyone who experiences such pressure will easily become unbalanced.
Especially when I just won the award, I was in a good mood and suddenly encountered such a thing. In contrast, it would be strange if I didn’t get angry.
Yu Hua won't say more, just talk about other content.
Then we talked about the recent situation of some friends and mentioned Liu Zhenyun.
Mo Yan became angry again, "A friend of all these years, just because I won a prize, I will not be friends?"
In his opinion, Liu Zhenyun's words said , it is obviously a satirical act.
Yu Hua is not very easy to answer.
This phone call is too difficult.
After a while of silence, Mo Yan seemed to know that he had a little silence and took the initiative to change the topic.
But it is always a bit disappointing to not talk about one piece in a row.
Not long after, the two hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Mo Yan looked at the phone in his hand and stared silently.
In the evening, my brother Guan Moxin came to congratulate him and talked about the Nobel Prize.
Mo Yan was a little quiet, still immersed in his previous emotions.
Of course Guan Moxin would not say anything else but said something in her impression back then. "You were interviewed at that time, and I remember talking about the Nobel Prize at that time." "Huh?" Mo Yan raised his head. "Didn't you say that you didn't want to win the Nobel Prize and pretend to be a grandson or something. I don't remember it very much, but I remember it was something."
Mo Yanteng stood up suddenly, and he also remembered it.
Mo Yan hurried back to the study and searched for news about that year on the computer. It was in 2006.
A reporter asked him if he wanted to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
His answer was, "Do you want to win the Nobel Prize? If I say I don't want to, then I'm too pretending to be a grandson! What's wrong with being able to win a million prize openly?
I think it, but how do I get it? Do I know how to write it to win the award? Will I change my creation for this award? ”
Haha, Mo Yan laughed twice unconsciously.
You Xiao Chen had an interview with you back then, and I did it too.
Why can't I receive the award? This award is something I deserve.
The next day, on the 15th, Mo Yan announced that he would hold a press conference on the media.
In an instant, a large number of media poured into Qilu Province at the first time.
There are many official media in this, such as Xinhua News Agency, Guangming Daily, Youth Daily, Study Times, Southern Daily, etc.
There are also various Internet media, such as Sina, Penguin, NetEase, Sohu, V-site, etc.
Everyone who has known about the recent public opinion knows that most of the media here are not very much spoken in the past.
The few, such as Southern Newspaper, Yanjing News, etc., speak from Mo Yan's perspective.
I have also put in the effort to select media.
Facing the reporter, Mo Yan no longer had the previous frustration and depression, and answered questions very normally.
"How do you feel when you win the Nobel Prize?"
"What do you think about winning the prize?"
"..."
br>The previous questions are routine, and everyone will answer them according to the process.
Next, the reporter asked a little deeper.
"What do you think about it? The various recent reports and public opinion?"
"Thank you for your support, support and criticize me, so that I finally get a place for myself to let go An opportunity to make noise among the voices.
The controversy during this period made me know my shortcomings and my strengths.
I didn't know before, so many people liked it. There are so many people who hate me, which makes me face the vast readership for the first time.
The recent debates over me and the Nobel Prize have helped me a lot. They are like a mirror that reflects the world and human nature and myself. "
This is very beautiful, the reporter cheered up and continued to ask, "Many netizens on the Internet think that your work is a bit negative. What do you think of it yourself? "
Mo Yan said, "I wrote early works because I was younger and more passionate. At that time, the book was a bit biased in its expression of society, but I think this work is very representative now. My attitude towards society, life attitude and literary attitude.
I used to write in the countryside of novels, mostly my own hometown. It is the prototype of the novel creation, but now it has surpassed it and is a microcosm of all rural areas in China. ”
What I said includes both some review of the past and confidence in the present.
It seems that he is indeed prepared.
The reporter asked again, "So, what do you think about Chen Linfeng and the related discussions he caused?"
The focus is coming, and everyone present focused their attention. On Mo Yan.
"Xiao Chen, he is a new generation of writers and is very outstanding, but the era he lives in is not the same as ours back then. Therefore, he has some new ideas, different from the past. I am Very understandable.
But in the face of a global literary award, I don’t think it’s good to blindly adopt an attitude of opposition and rejection.
Literature should have an upward part, a critical side, and allow criticism.
Xiao Chen rejected the Nobel Prize. He implemented his attitude. This is very good and worthy of praise, but not everyone should keep the same view as him, and that would be bad. "
"So, Mr. Mo Yan, you will receive the award, right? ”
The reporter couldn't wait to ask the most critical question.
"Yes," Mo Yan said seriously, "I also had my own opinions on the Nobel Prize back then.
That was probably in 2006, when the reporter of Southern Daily asked a question, I was the first one. I have my own explanation of the Nobel Prize.
Xiao Chen is loyal to his own ideas, and I will also be loyal to my ideas."
After saying that, Mo Yan stepped down and ended Press conference.
The reporters present all looked at the reporters of the Southern Daily.
Is this still the case?
The reporter of the Southern Daily was full of question marks. That was asked by his senior. I have never experienced it. I know.
After many media went back, they checked out an interview and learned the whole picture.
It turns out that Mo Yan said at the beginning, "There is nothing wrong with winning the award openly."
In this way, Chen Linfeng doesn't seem to have to pay too much attention to the saying "stylist".
After all, I have said that even if I want to win an award, I will not change my creation because of this.
This is very bright.
Then, reports were released.
Chen Linfeng also saw related reports at home.
I have to say that Mo Yan's preparations are perfect this time, and the public opinion situation will be reversed all at once. At least it will be much better and will not fall into one side.
It's impossible to turn it over completely.
After all, Chen Linfeng said it in about 2000. He was only over 10 years old at that time, and he was a child.
As we all know, children generally do not lie.
At least that's how the public sees it.
And after so many years, he has implemented his philosophy.
After rejecting the Nobel Prize, Chen Linfeng was invincible.
The current public opinion is at most that it is believed that some authors may indeed be the type of flattery, but Mo Yan is not.
They have already expressed their opinions.
Many official media are also guiding this angle.
But this is just talking to oneself after all, and there are still some people who think that Mo Yan should also show his integrity, especially on the Internet.
However, compared to before, this kind of voice is still much smaller, after all, there is not much media cooperation to reproduce it, right?
"Director Chen, I agreed at the beginning that when the Chinese people won the Nobel Prize, you will come to participate in the program. Now, watch..."
"It's okay, since I had an agreement at the beginning, I'll do it. I will definitely go, but in terms of time, it may have to wait until December. What do you think? "
"Okay, this must take care of your time."
Hang up the phone, Chen Linfeng looked at the phone in his hand and smiled.
It's still early.
What Mo Yan said by himself is useless, it depends on whether others are cooperating.
You say you are creating, but it may not be possible for someone to take you for some reason.
That's hard to explain.
He himself rejected the Nobel Prize, and his biggest worry was this.
It’s better for Mo Yan to go and receive the award.
Now, Chen Linfeng is looking forward to the Swedish Academy of Literature sending a heavy backstab to Mo Yan during the Nobel Prize in December.
