Chapter 380 Lu Wu's circuitous apology
When chatting with Xu Qingya before, the little girl mentioned that Mr. He had asked someone to hand over the first 20 words of "The Palace of Longevity" to Mr. Lu Wu.
Calculate the time, no matter how slow Mr. Lu Wu's reading speed is, he should finish it now.
After watching it, it should be a little bit more expressive.
Sure enough, Lu Wu updated a message.
It was updated yesterday.
Not many words.
Well, compared to his previous dynamic, there are not many words.
"I saw a new work of Hemingway sent by a friend today, and I have some changes in Hemingway. At the same time, I also have some feelings. The current environment for literary creation is so bad that even a talented and talented writer like Hemingway has to lower his stature. Writing vulgar literature that makes money, delaying talent. It's embarrassing."
Is this... an apology from the Nobel Prize boss?
Although it is rather roundabout, there is not a single "apology" word throughout.
But it should be an apology, right?
At least it's a name for Hemingway.
By the way, I complained about the creative environment.
Du Caige's anger basically disappeared.
Not because of Lu Wu's apology.
It was because he discovered that Lu Wu, the Nobel Prize winner, was actually just a poor stubborn old man.
Well, Lu Wu himself certainly doesn't feel sorry for himself.
However, in the eyes of onlookers, it should be easy to draw the conclusion that this old man has been abandoned by the times, and it is gradually difficult to integrate into the world.
Lu Wu was once the most popular writer in Dahuaguo, and his novels, poems and essays are highly sought after.
His early works are still very popular.
And he's also a middle-class writer.
Between the ages of 20 and 50, a full 6 million words of works were published.
The speed of coding is naturally incomparable with that of online writers... But as a traditional literary writer, his output is not low.
But in the past 20 years, to be precise, after winning the Nobel Prize for Literature, Lu Wu has only published a few works of 500,000 words, one is a novel of 200,000 words, and the other is a literary study of 300,000 words.
If these 500,000 words are all fine, it’s okay to say, the key is that the quality is not high, at least readers don’t buy it.
In fact, for writers, the creative ability does not decline significantly after the age of forty or fifty.
Writers of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, although there are many people who have emerged in their youth, it is difficult for them to surpass their previous peaks later.
But there are a lot of people who don't publish well-known literary works until after the age of 50.
Tagore's "Birds" was published when he was 55 years old.
Tolkien started publishing The Lord of the Rings at the age of 62.
A Song of Ice and Fire was published by George Martin at 48. And at the age of 73, the old man is still writing the sixth volume of "A Song of Ice and Fire"... God bless him to live a few more years, don't let the readers of the earth cry and wait for the passive eunuch.
In the final analysis, Lu Wu's creative ability should not decline.
He's in good health and doesn't have too many worldly distractions.
He doesn't give lectures or go to places to make money. He seldom even attends Writers Association meetings. He didn't lose his heart because of his fame, and he was trapped in a life of lavish money and worldly turmoil.
For the past two decades, he has been "concentrating on writing".
However, he is clearly devoted to literary creation, but he has only written 500,000 words in 20 years...
Even the Emperor Taishi, who was disabled, wrote the historical records when he was poor and down and out. It was faster than this.
It can only be said that after winning the Nobel Prize, Lu Wu, although not lost on the surface, has actually taken on the air of a Nobel Prize tycoon.
After that, he always had a lot of worries, worried that the things he wrote would not meet the status of "Nobel Prize tycoon", worried that the sales would not be good, that the literary ideology would not be strong, and that he would be picked on...
Therefore, what he has written in the past 20 years has been evaluated as "his words have lost the ability to touch the heart, but there are no obvious mistakes and omissions, it is simply a grammar textbook".
For a while, Du Caige felt dull.
I even had a rivalry with such a person before... It's ridiculous to think about it.
Such a stubborn old man, since he has lost the ability to create, he should hide himself honestly, and don't always stand up and make outdated remarks.
How ridiculous is it to criticize online literature for being vulgar and unseemly?
Haven't you forgotten that even the Book of Songs, which seems to be incompetent now, was actually created by people from Xialiba during the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
Difficult to climb the hall of elegance.
This is not a hoax, nor is it just a rant.
The Book of Songs is divided into three parts: wind, elegance, and ode according to the different tunes.
Ya is the music of the regions directly under the Zhou Dynasty, that is, "Zheng Sheng Ya Music".
It is music played at official court banquets or important state affairs.
The wind is the local music of different regions, and the ode is mostly the music played during sacrifices.
Among them, "Ya" is further divided into two Ya, Tai Ya and Xiao Ya.
Taiga mostly sing praises to the royal family, ancestors and so on. Xiaoya is basically a poem written by the little aristocrats, depicting the life of the aristocrats.
Guofeng music is naturally difficult to compare with Taiga music.
Not a level thing.
Guofeng music is the vulgar pop music.
At that time, it was "fast food music", something that people with no culture and lower cultural level could understand.
Compared with "Ya" and "Song", the words used in the Book of Songs and Guofeng are obviously more popular and simpler.
Noble families did not bother to play, and noble musicians did not learn. (Except for some court musicians. These court musicians have to play the national style music to the emperor, so that the emperor can understand the feelings of the people.)
But after a few hundred years, the vulgar national style music has gradually become an elegant literature that aristocrats must know how to sing and quote when socializing.
Another thousand years later, "Book of Songs" became one of the subjects of the imperial examination, and the "Guofeng" of the lower Liba people became one of the brightest pearls on the crown of Chinese literature.
The legends of the Tang Dynasty and the novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasties were not very elegant when they were just born, and were ridiculed by the leaders of the literary world at that time.
They were even suppressed and banned by the authorities.
But haven't all those that have been passed down to the present become "literary masterpieces"? Has it become a required or optional reading in Chinese textbooks?
Mr. Lu Wu, those novels that you won the Nobel Prize, if you got them hundreds of years ago, are also the things that people in the lower Riba read, and they are also vulgar literature that is difficult to be elegant, do you know?
Even if you look at the playbook that "has changed for Hemingway" now, hundreds of years ago, it was a vulgar thing that was despised by literati and doctors, and it was considered to be "obscenity and stealing" garbage, you know What?
Of course, Du Caige doesn't think that online literature can be transformed into a literary masterpiece in a few hundred years.
However, he firmly believes that the term "Internet literature" will gradually disappear in a few hundred years at most.
There is no longer "Internet Literature", but all under the category of "Popular Literature", which is side by side with Lu Wu's books.
That's right, Mr. Lu Wu, your novels are actually placed in the "Popular Literature" area on the shelves of large chain bookstores such as "Dahua Bookstore" and "Huaxia Graphics", as well as online shopping malls!
Du Caige looked at the Weibo of some other top celebrities in the cultural circle that he had followed before.
Including the chairman of the Dahua National Writers Association "Wang Mo", several winners of the Bai Yang Literature Award, and some big names in the drama circle and music circle (non-pop music), many people have discussed "" Hall of Longevity.
The most beautiful words.
Du Caige received all the photos.
He was just a porter, and he knew that very well. However, "The Palace of Longevity" deserves to be praised.
It may not be as good as "The Peony Pavilion" and "Peach Blossom Fan", but "The Palace of Longevity" is definitely an immortal monument in the history of Chinese literature and drama.
How many compliments can be given to such a masterpiece.
In fact, he really wanted to click into a few fan groups to see what the fans were talking about.
But the mobile version of LL has not been officially released.
Now I'm too lazy to get up and turn on the hotel's computer.
So he took the next step and scanned "Hemingway" and his own Weibo.
His Weibo was published by Li Zhe's team, and most of them were chicken soup.
There is also a call for fans to watch "Those Years".
There are also a few interactions with pop singers and musicians. It is estimated that Li Zhe's team has contacted with those people's teams and made business behaviors.
Most of the messages from fans are currently focused on topics such as "Romance of the Dragon and Snake", "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" and "Those Years".
There are also a small number of fans who are constantly asking "What book is the Palace of Longevity", "Haida, have you written a new book again?" "When are you going to officially release the Palace of Longevity" and so on.
Such fans are probably true fans.
Du Caige also suddenly moved his mind and sent a private letter to these fans: Changsheng Palace will not be published for the time being, leave your address and email address, and I will arrange for someone to copy it and send it to you.
Although he is not a star, it is also very interesting to occasionally satisfy the small wishes of a few true fans.
As for the various discussions on tonight's show, although some hot posts have already begun, they have not yet formed a scale.
Looking at the time again, it was almost 3:00 in the morning.
Gotta get some sleep.
So Du Caige turned off his phone and forcibly counted the sheep... After counting more than a thousand, he still didn't fall asleep.
It was about 5 a.m. when he barely slept for a while.
Early the next morning, he was forced to get up.
Although as a salted fish, staying in bed and sleeping in the cage are basic skills, but there is still something to do this morning, and I have to catch a plane in the afternoon, so I can't delay.
I closed my eyes and finished washing up, dressed like a sleepwalker and went out, took a taxi, and took another nap in the car.
When the car stopped at the entrance of Banana Terrace, Du Caige patted his face and forcibly cheered up.
After contacting Han Yi, he went straight to the office of Geng Siyuan, the deputy director of Banana Channel and director of the "New Power of Music" program group.
This is not the first time he has met Geng Siyuan, but they are not familiar with each other, so Du Caige's words are still polite.
But only in a polite tone.
After listening to Du Caige, of course Geng Siyuan refused, all kinds of retention and even subtle threats, but Du Caige was unmoved.
In the end, Du Caige said with a smile: "Actually, whether I leave or not, it's actually a small matter. It won't have a big impact on our respective lives. Therefore, Director Geng, I hope that we will discuss the matter on a case-by-case basis. Let this affect our personal relationship."
"Of course, of course." Geng Siyuan didn't want to offend Du Caige.
"Well, I'll let my agent talk about the next thing. I'll leave it to him to deal with how much liquidated damages should be paid. I'll retire first!"
After saying that he didn't give Geng Siyuan a chance to keep him, he went out quickly.
Geng Siyuan's eyebrows twisted into the word "Chuan", and after a long time he sighed: "It's hard to do..."
