After his colleagues left after work, Qin Chuan had time to calm down and study what kind of name this youth literary creation contest was.

Who knew that when he just searched for the name of this contest, the first place in the search results was the entry channel!

"It seems to be quite formal. ”

Qin Chuan whispered that this literary contest was organized by the National Propaganda BU, the Civilization Office, the Education BU, the Culture and Tourism BU, the National Writers Association, and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

Originally, there were many large and small essays in Huaguo, but after being rectified ten years ago, only some official and large-scale competitions remained, so as to avoid the proliferation of small essays, collusion between contestants and judges, and so on.

The entire literary atmosphere has returned to Qingming under various constraints.

The reason why Xingcheng University of Science and Technology attaches great importance to this literary contest is that the previous national teachers' literary essay contest was annexed and integrated by the Youth Literary Creation Competition.

Don't look at who the organizer of the essay contest is, it's the top boss of all universities!

The gold medal of the essay contest can receive a prize of 1 million Chinese dollars, and the prize money is secondary, and the important thing is that it can be recognized and promoted by the media.

Short stories, reportage, essays, and poetry are required, and novels are not solicited at all.

If a group of people really want to submit a novel of millions of words, it is estimated that the judges will not be able to do the rest of the things and can only read the novel.

"If you want to write it, you should choose a better work and hand it in, so as not to waste this opportunity. ”

Qin Chuan thought for a while, he didn't plan to write poetry or anything, but wanted to choose a short story.

It is best to represent your identity as an online writer and also have a certain literary value.

There are many similar articles in his memory, but many domestic novels have a special background of the times, and it is definitely wrong to take them directly.

A lot of prose can't be written at all without a specific experience!

What is the impression of a web writer?

Big brain!

There will be all kinds of bizarre plots.

Qin Chuan twisted his neck, and a novel suddenly came to his heart.

Metamorphosis!

It's not Wang Jingze's "Metamorphosis".

He clearly remembers that the first time he read this novel was in a Chinese textbook, and he found it very interesting.

A man can turn into a beetle!

And after turning into a beetle, everything changed.

The story is absurd and extremely ironic.

Although the novel was published a century ago, the background described is almost the same as it is now, and there is no difference at all.

The brain hole is big enough, and there is also literary value and meaning, this is indeed a very ingenious choice of works.

It is more than enough to participate in such a literary writing contest with the representative works of world-renowned authors, but he is a little worried about whether the judges will accept this kind of writing.

"Whatever, it doesn't matter if he can win an award or not, it can be published in other magazines when the time comes, and someone will always find this novel!"

In fact, "Metamorphosis" is similar to the flow of strange beasts in online novels, but the focus is different, and the content expressed is also different, and there is no superiority or inferiority.

After thinking about the background of the novel, he decided to change the background of the story briefly, and the rest of the story remained the same.

The current level cannot be compared with the world-renowned masters, and rashly modifying too much will only backfire!

Originally, he was going to write out the detailed outline of "Dragon Family 1" and hand it over to Shen Xu for market research, but he didn't expect to have to postpone it for a few days.

"The Metamorphosis" must be written first, because the essay contest will be closed in a week!

Obviously, the event started on New Year's Day, but as a result, the school did not have a large-scale notice at all.

It is estimated that Principal Jiang did not have any hope for the school's young teachers at first, and he didn't know where he learned that the school had a best-selling author, and he waited until the school was about to start before announcing it.

That is, Qin Chuan, it is a bit difficult for another person to complete a high-quality manuscript in just seven days.

Qin Chuan An's peace of mind is rubbing the computer, network, and heating in the office, and the code word here can harvest double the diligence value.

He has forgotten the specific plot and text, but being able to use Chinese textbooks is definitely a classic that has stood the test of time!

After choosing a better position, use today's brain overclocking state to recall memories.

The protagonist of The Metamorphosis, Gregor Samsa, works as a traveling salesman for a company and travels for many years, struggling to support the family's expenses.

When Samsa was able to support his humble family with a modest salary, he was the respected eldest son in the family, praised by his parents and adored by his sister.

When one day he turned into a beetle, lost his labor force, and had no material contribution to the family, his family reversed their previous respect for him, and gradually showed a face of indifference, disgust, and hatred.

His father viciously hit him with an apple, his mother fainted with fright, and his sister turned away from him. Gradually, Samsa distanced himself from society, and finally died alone and painfully in silence with hunger!

He remembered the translated version, but he had not read the original version, and at the same time he could not understand it.

The translation is 30,000 words in total, which is very concise.

There is no superfluous text.

Kafka used his own unique tone to describe the incident of human transformation into insects, which looks particularly absurd and incredible.

At that time, there were similarities between the era when material things were extremely rich and human feelings were as thin as a veil and today.

Nowadays, there are many people who are mercenary, who worship money, who are dismissive of true lovers, and there are also many people who have no independent will, like Gregor.

He had no need for his own to provide for his family and pay off his debts.

From the pillar of one family, tragedy has become a burden and burden for the whole family.

The whole story is not complicated, but at the beginning of the reading, you can feel Kafka's imagination, and as the plot progresses, you feel more and more fear and despair.

Gregor represents the little people living at the bottom of society, who are frightened, uneasy, lonely, and confused in a world full of contradictions and distortions, who are oppressed but do not dare to resist, and who are powerless to resist, who yearn for tomorrow but do not see a way out!

"It's still very realistic!"

A good work will never go out of style in any era.

Qin Chuan estimated that he would start writing after almost touching it, and he was going to put the background of this novel in China, and then take the most ordinary and ordinary name, which would increase the reader's sense of substitution.

Everyone should know a person named Zhang Wei.

There is no need to change too much of the original content, Qin Chuan is now a happy typewriter.

Presenting the content in my mind on the computer with both hands, the novel took shape very quickly, and I wrote more than 2,000 words in a short time!
