378 Ukiyo-e
Hearing the words of the host Ma Jue, the audience, elites from all walks of life looked at each other.
No one expected in advance that in the past year, the Great Dragon Kingdom would not be able to find a writer who was eligible for the Science Fiction Award!
In the audience, Luoyang was stunned: "How can the science fiction award have a bye, the classics of the times are to be broadcast live across the country, and the science fiction award bye is not the face of all science fiction writers in the Dragon Country?"
Hua Qi was also surprised, but seeing Luoyang's incredible face, he still explained: "The selection of the classics of the times is very strict, if there are really no good works, their awards are rather scarce than indiscriminate, which is also the reason why countless people are eager for the classics of the times." ”
"So, there have been award byes in previous years?"
Although Luoyang now has a basic understanding of the national conditions and humanities of the Dragon Kingdom, he still does not know some of the history of the classics of the times.
Hua Qi nodded: "Once, five years ago, the Times Classic Short Story Award had a bye, and it caused a big sensation at that time, and the whole country was scolded, but the scolding was not aimed at the selection organization of the classics of the times, but a collective crusade against short story writers." ”
The classics of the times have done nothing wrong, they uphold the most fair principle, even if the big one is short, it must be worthy of the principle of review.
And when there are really no works that can be used, the classics of the times don't mind letting this award bye, and this attitude of preferring lack to abundance has always been the principle of the classics of the times.
"So, science fiction writers are going to be out of luck. Luoyang said, the science fiction award bye, the entire science fiction world of the dragon country is gloomy, and even Luoyang can expect that it is the rice country of the West and the like, and it will also ridicule the science fiction of the dragon country.
The camera is also given to some famous science fiction writers.
It is not difficult to see from the camera that these science fiction writers are full of embarrassment at the moment, and the posture of sitting in the position is a little unnatural writhing, and some thin-skinned science fiction writers have even lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
Luoyang suddenly felt a little sympathetic to these science fiction writers.
On the award of the classic of the times, in front of the elites from all walks of life across the country and in front of the national audience, it is undoubtedly very embarrassing to encounter the embarrassment of the award bye.
Amber said on the side: "It is estimated that after the ceremony, tomorrow the major news media will criticize the science fiction novels of the Dragon Kingdom, and even the chairman of our Dragon Kingdom Writers Association will lie down and shoot, because he is the leader of the science fiction novels of the Dragon Kingdom, and his science fiction novel "Future World" last year was not even qualified to be shortlisted." ”
Lin Yifeng is the chairman of the Writers' Association, and the Writers' Association is even one of the organizers of the classics of the times, but he still suffers from the embarrassment of the award bye, and he will definitely be criticized.
It is true that Luoyang read Lin Yifeng's "Alien Miracle" and thought it was very exciting, but except for the "Alien Miracle" that won him the award, Lin Yifeng's other science fiction novels can only be described as general.
Either way, the ceremony will continue.
Behind the Science Fiction Award, there is the Writer's Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award.
"The Writer's Award, only the creation of a masterpiece unanimously affirmed at home and abroad, can have the opportunity to win, our Dragon Kingdom era classics have been held for ten years, and only two Writer's Awards, once awarded to Mr. Wu Mingche, a senior professor of Tiandu University, once awarded to the Dragon Kingdom educators, the deceased Xiangshan seniors. ”
"As for the Lifetime Achievement Award, so far only Xiangshan seniors have won it, and he has made outstanding contributions to the cultural export of the Dragon Kingdom to the outside world, so on the second anniversary of his death, he won the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Times Classics. ”
These two awards, the odds of being awarded are very small, and obviously this time there is also a bye.
However, these two awards are commonplace in the Dragon Kingdom, and they will not lead to any criticism - literary heroes do not appear easily, and lifelong achievements are all-round recognition of a person, and the selection criteria are extremely harsh.
Although these two awards are still byes, the host has something to say.
He made a big summary of the literature of the Dragon Kingdom in the past year, during which he mentioned a lot of development highlights and drawbacks, obviously these words are not Ma Jue's own words, but the acquiescence of the organizer and even the country behind him, he will make such a summary.
"In general, there is no doubt that the culture of our dragon kingdom needs to progress and develop, the ancients said that there is no end to learning, and it is a true truth, and we also need to carry out diversified development and improve the specifications of major ceremonies. ”
Ma Jue seems to have revealed some meaning of the government.
"In addition, we are also looking forward to the diversified development of culture, so the organizers of the classics of the times, there will be more and more professional institutions, at the same time, many new categories, just like martial arts novels, will be included in the classics of the times of the awards - these, to the time, to the people from all walks of life here, may we encourage together, for the cultural development of the motherland, to make a contribution, do a heart. ”
Speaking and here, it can be regarded as a prosperous end.
――――――――――――――――
When the ceremony was over, people from all walks of life did not disperse.
Because everyone knows that just after the ceremony, there is still a [Feast of the Times] waiting.
This is a classic tradition of the Dragon Kingdom, and after each ceremony, a grand dinner is arranged, which lasts until about 1 a.m.
Naturally, Luoyang and the others also attended the dinner, but the dinner did not have a fixed location - such an occasion seemed to be more suitable for walking back and forth and meeting some new friends.
Those who can enter this dinner are all leaders in their respective fields, not to mention the wealthy businessmen with countless assets, that is, the brilliant dragon country superstars, the elites of the technology industry, and even the leaders of the scientific research community will appear at this dinner.
Knowing a random person represents a lot of strength.
So, everyone had a look on their faces with eagerness, a goblet of red wine in their hands, walking back and forth at the dinner party, and exchanging business cards frequently.
Luoyang couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw all this, because among these people who frequently exchanged business cards, there were many so-called high-ranking literati - some literati drank stuffy wine alone or tasted food, while some literati showed their philistine side, and they looked like sociaticists.
"In any circle, there are good people and bad people, there are real high-minded people, and there are self-proclaimed hypocrites. ”
Luoyang is not a high and widowed person, although he will not deliberately make friends with some celebrities on the scene, but there are often people who find Luoyang to clink glasses and want to get to know each other.
Luoyang did not have an arrogant refusal, he usually had a smile on his face, clinking glasses with the other party, if the other party presented a business card, he also smiled, the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling face is what the person said.
Luoyang can be a man, his emotional intelligence is not low, and he naturally will not make childish mistakes.
