Regarding the topic of "the road to literature", Yu Dong has spoken several times. Although there are several versions, each version is not much different.
To be honest, of course he didn't lie. After all, it was because he met Su Tong on the bank of the Qinhuai River that he started to embark on the path of literature.
What Yu Dong said was quite normal. After he finished speaking, it was Oe Kenzaburo's turn.
Oe Kenzaburo's literary path is more normal than what Yu Dong said. He first fell in love with reading and became interested in literature. Later, he entered the liberal arts department of Tokyo University, and then began to study French literature, reading Camus, Sartre, etc.
Original French work by Man.
It was after reading those original French works with Kazuo Watanabe that he came up with the idea of ​​publishing his own works.
After briefly talking about how he fell in love with literature and how he started writing, Oe Kenzaburo talked about his writing attitude, or the theme of his work.
Oe Kenzaburo was born during the war. He was just ten years old when Neon was defeated and surrendered. It had such a profound impact on him that all the works he published later were anti-war themes.
Because of his opposition to the war, his reputation in China is still very good.
In addition to expressing his attitude in his works, he also has some practical actions.
A few years ago, Oe Kenzaburo won the Nobel Prize for Literature, but he refused the Cultural Medal awarded by Emperor Neon himself. He also gave a speech at the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony, naming the Jinling Massacre as one of the three greatest humanitarian crimes of the 20th century.
One of the disasters of socialism, we urge Neon to get rid of its ambiguous attitude and bravely admit its historical sins.
Moreover, Oe Kenzaburo has been to China several times and has a very friendly attitude toward China.
Because of this, ABC put Oe Kenzaburo on the guest list. If they invited someone with a bad attitude towards China, they were afraid that Yu Dong would be unhappy. After all, Yu Dong was not only a scholar, but also one of the shareholders of the Deep Space Company.
one.
Deep Space not only owns shares in EPSN, but also has a very good relationship with Walt Disney, the owner of ABC. Of course, ABC does not want to offend Dong.
After Oe Kenzaburo finished talking about his literary career, it was Yu Hua's turn to make up some nonsense.
After a round, only Oe Kenzaburo and Alice Munro were more reliable, while the others were basically made up, including Clézio and Joyce Oates.
Clézio and Joyce Oates are also quite joking, especially Clézio, who has been in contact with Yu Hua and the others for a long time, and their styles have gradually become somewhat similar.
Joyce Oates' literary path is actually very simple. She grew up on her grandfather's farm, and later studied in a high school near Buffalo. From that time on, she read a large number of literary works, including
The most popular ones are Dostoyevsky, Faulkner and Kafka.
After entering university, she began to try writing and created a large number of short stories.
While studying for a doctorate at Rice University, she accidentally discovered that one of her short stories had been selected for the "Best American Short Stories" and decided to give up her studies and specialize in writing.
But she made up a story on the spot, saying that the reason why she embarked on the literary path was related to a boy she met in adolescence. The story was somewhat romantic and somewhat playful.
In fact, it cannot be regarded as an editor. Joyce Oates probably did meet a boy she fell in love with when she was young, and she probably got some literary inspiration from this love.
Everyone's reasons for embarking on the path of literature are different, but in the final analysis, they are all the same. Most of them, at least among the writers Yu Dong has met, the reason why they became writers is due to a large number of
read.
Reading in childhood and adolescence is crucial to becoming a writer later. No one reads to prepare to be a writer, but in the end he becomes a writer because of a lot of reading.
There is no definite estimate of how much reading a person needs to become a writer, but what is certain is that only those who have maintained the desire to read for a period of time will have the desire to create.
Or, conversely, only long-term reading can complete creation when the desire to create is generated.
After ending the first topic, the host initiated a second topic, asking each of them to share a work they were reading with the audience.
Because this topic was announced in advance, everyone was prepared.
This time the order is reversed, Oe Kenzaburo and Yu Dong are the last two.
After Oe Kenzaburo took the microphone, he said very solemnly, "The book I am reading recently is "The Curse" by YU."
After hearing Kenzaburo Oe's words, everyone present became interested, because he was the first to share the work of the present guest today. The works shared by others all have one characteristic, that is - the author has passed away.
"This is not the first time I have read the novel "Curse". At first, because "Curse" did not have a neon version, I could only read the French version of "Curse". A few days ago, I accidentally read "Curse" in Neon.
I saw the neon version of "Curse" in Hong's bookstore, so I bought it and read it again. I read it twice and was shocked twice. YU's works have a shocking power. There is no envy of the tragic and tragic scenes, but they still remain the same.
It can make people feel the cruelty of war."
"When I was young, in order to make people feel the cruelty of war, I would express children's war experience, which came from my personal experience. There is a similar description in "The Curse", but it is not heavy-handed and unconsciously
In an instant, people felt the heaviness of war..."
When talking about "The Curse", Oe Kenzaburo seemed to have a lot to say. He continued to talk for about ten minutes, talking about his reading experience, and also talked about the difference between the French version and the neon version.
If a young writer had said this, people might have thought too much and thought that this person was trying to flatter Yu Dong. However, since these words were spoken by Kenzaburo Oe, the meaning would be different. After all, Kenzaburo Oe does not need
Go and flatter Yu Dong.
After Kenzaburo Oe finished speaking, Yu Dong said with a smile, "Thank you for your praise. It is an honor for "Curse" and an honor for me to be liked by Neon's best work. In addition, I am also an international student at Jinling Academy of Art.
Director of the Writing Center, I sincerely extend an invitation to Mr. Oe Kenzaburo, hoping that you can visit Jinling when you have time. Jinling is a city carrying history. The people there will not forget history, and people who do not forget history are also welcome to be guests.
.”
Oe Kenzaburo didn't even think about it and nodded directly in agreement, "Okay, thank you for the invitation, I will definitely go."
After Oe Kenzaburo finished sharing his works, it was Yu Dong's turn to be the last one.
Yu Dong said with a smile, "Before noon yesterday, I was actually quite worried about which work I should share with you. Recently, I have read very little and basically been working, except for my own books, or some
Working documents, I basically didn’t read anything else. For this reason, I took some time yesterday afternoon to wander around the Deep Space Tribe, trying to find out if there were any good works.”
"And when I was wandering around on the Deep Space Tribe, I found an article. This article was posted by an ordinary tribe user. It didn't have many words, it was just a short story, and the reading volume was also very low. I went there
At that time, there were still more than a hundred readers, which means that before me, only a hundred people at most had read this article."
"This is in line with my expectations because I hope to share a work that most people have not seen."
"Of course, apart from the fact that most people have not read it, it must be a good story. The author of this story is not a professional writer. I checked his personal homepage. This is even his first work. He himself
He's a physician."
When Yu Dong said this, everyone at the scene was a little confused. They didn't know what he was going to say. Could it be that Yu Dong wanted to share a "tribe" with them?
Although everyone was confused, Yu Dong was not in a hurry to reveal the answer. He continued to smile and said, "Some time ago, there was a report about Talib banning citizens from flying kites, and the author's favorite activity when he was a child was kite flying.
, so he wrote this article on a whim. The title of the article is "The Kite Runner". This article is not long, so I won't spoil it here. If you want to read it, you can log in to Shenzhen
If you search for the words 'Kite Runner' on Kong Tribe, you will see this article."
In fact, Yu Dong saw this novel more than a week ago. He usually likes to search for some keywords on the Internet.
More than a week ago, when he was hanging out on the Deep Space Tribe, he saw some netizens discussing the news that Tully B banned people from flying kites, and he thought of the famous novel "The Kite Runner", so he went to Deep Space Tribe to discuss the news.
I searched the keyword kite on Kongbo.
After searching for keywords, most of the news that came out was about Talib banning people from flying kites. However, among several news items, Yu Dong found a short article that happened to be called "The Kite Runner".
This essay is very short. It is not like a novel, but more like a memory. However, its content is very close to that of the novel "The Kite Runner". Just because it is very short, the plot is quite different. Combined with the story of tribal pigs,
Personal information, Yu Dong can basically confirm that this person is the author of "The Kite Runner", and this short article is a condensed version of the novel "The Kite Runner".
Yu Dong originally wanted to contact this tribal pig and sign a contract with him in advance, but he has been delayed because he has been busy recently. It happened to be that he wanted to share a recently watched work today, so he mentioned "The Kite Runner".
Yu Dong did not tell everyone what the content of this short article was, nor did he tell them the reasons for his recommendation, but the one he recommended attracted everyone's attention the most because it was very special.
The works recommended by others are basically masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, and Kenzaburo Oe recommended Yu Dong's "The Curse".
Most of the people present were literature lovers and had basically read the works they recommended, so naturally they didn’t think there was anything new.
But the "Kite Runner" recommended by Yu Dong is different. It turned out to be a tribal article that Yu Dong accidentally saw. The author is a physician and has never written anything before.
Then why did what he wrote attract Yu Dong?
As a great writer, why would Yu Dong be interested in a short article written by a physician? There must be something extraordinary about it.
The most important thing is that this article is mysterious enough. Only more than a hundred people have read it before, which means that if they are fast enough, they can see this article faster than most people in the world.
A highly praised novel.
If it were not for the recording of the program, some viewers would have even gone back to turn on their computers and log in to the Deep Space Tribe to search for "The Kite Runner."
…
At this time, in the studio, the director looked at the reactions of the audience, held his chin and pondered for a while, and then said to the staff next to him, "Quickly contact the network platform operations department and ask them to find the article that YU mentioned.
, forwarded with text."
"What text should it go with?" the staff asked.
"Easy, just write - real-time battle report, YU said, this is the best novel he has read this year."
"Is this too exaggerated? Will YU be angry?"
"No, didn't you just hear YU say that he hasn't read any novels this year?"
"Understood."
After agreeing, the staff may run to the network platform operation department.
The Network Platform Operations Department is a new department that was only officially established last year. This department is responsible for managing the accounts of major network platforms. The name of the department is very long, but everyone is accustomed to calling them the Network Platform Operations Department.
In fact, because Deep Space Tribe is now the largest social platform in the world, the business of this department is also concentrated on Deep Space Tribe.
After the network platform operations department here determined the task, they searched for the words "Kite Runner" on the Deep Space Tribe, and then found the article Yu Dong mentioned.
In order to make sure it was correct, people from the Internet Platform Operations Department also took a look at Tribal Pig's homepage to confirm that he was a physician and that the article was related to the news about Talib banning people from flying kites.
After confirming it, they forwarded this blog post using their official account and included the text.
"The best short story of the year, YU personally certified."
Sometimes, it is normal for people to have a little difference when communicating.
That is to say, the staff of the network platform operation department are not brave enough, otherwise they might write the title as: The best novel of the year, YU worships it!
ABC's Deep Space Tribe account has been established a long time ago. It is the first batch of accounts certified as official. In addition, they are operating well and now have more than two million fans. They are a big official.
Chapter completed!
