Chapter 10: Controversy Erupts

"The beauty of prose is varied, but the highest ideal is only the word 'simple'. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The most fundamental principle in the art of info prose is to 'cut love'. The beauty of prose does not care about how many stories you can write, nor how many elegant words you can write, but how many beautiful words you can express. The beauty of prose, the beauty is in the appropriate. Those who refuse to part with their love are generally bound to fail in the article. ”

In response to those masters who think that prose is a beautiful essay, it needs to be ornate, beautiful sentences are fundamental, and it doesn't matter whether the central idea is there or not, Lin Ruofeng quickly wrote this text, proposing that the supreme ideal of prose is only "simple", and it is necessary to directly and clearly express the thoughts in your heart.

Subsequently, Lin Ruofeng took out the four taboos of prose in "On Prose", too many branches, too redundant, too blunt, and too crude to criticize modern prose. Then, with the concept of "tone" proposed by Liang Shiqiu and Han Yu's theories such as "unity of literature and Taoism", "vigorous speech", "Wu go to Chen Yan" and "text follows the word order", an orthodox prose theory is formed.

Finally, Lin Ruofeng added Su Shi's article at the end: Roughly like flowing water, there is no quality at the beginning, but it is often done in what should be done, and often stops at what cannot be stopped......

Although there is no definite form of prose, there are certain rules, and it is necessary to stop at the moment, just like the clouds and flowing water, although the forms are different, but to understand the rules, so as to write a good prose.

After more than an hour, Lin Ruofeng exhaled heavily, and it was finally finished.

As for how to refute the concept of "no rhyme, no poetry" put forward by academic masters to oppose prose poetry, Lin Ruofeng has long had ideas.

Liu Bannong, an advocate of modern Chinese prose poetry in his previous life, once published an article "My View on Literary Improvement" in "New Youth", which mentioned "increasing the number of poems" and "adding poems without rhyme in addition to poems with rhyme".

As a result, Lin Ruofeng once again worked hard to write.

......

Lin Yi Literature Society.

"Look at the sales of this issue!"

Boss Liu Yimin casually threw a document out. "Our morning issue is missing by 10%, I want to ask you, why is that?"

Since Lin Yi Literature Club became the No. 1 in Jiangnan City, the sales volume has never decreased to such a point, and it has been surpassed by a rising star. Liu Yimin was very angry and immediately held a meeting when he got the latest sales report.

Editor-in-chief He Jie said: "Boss, I didn't do a good job, I didn't expect that the "Haiyan" and prose published by the other party would cause such a big sensation!"

The ugly woman once said: "Yes, boss, they just rely on some means to attract people's attention, I think in two days, then what prose poems and prose theories will definitely disappear without a trace!"

Liu Yimin said: "I heard that the prose poem "Haiyan" and the prose theory flowed out of us, how did you do things?"

Song Yang hurriedly said: "Boss, that's just a nonsense talk of an interview boy, now many literary masters are criticizing prose poetry and prose theory, and the Dawn Literary Society will publish his article, or it won't be long before it will encounter resistance because of this, and no one will buy a journal that is criticized by experts!"

Liu Yimin frowned, and snorted coldly: "But it's a fact that people are leading in sales!"

Song Yang said: "Otherwise, boss, I'll write an article to criticize the other party's remarks later, and he doesn't have the talent and ability to refute it." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yimin nodded slightly.

Seeing this, the corners of Song Yang's mouth curved, he couldn't have imagined that Zuo Yuqing refused his interview in order to catch up with Lin Ruofeng in a hurry. And also published Lin Ruofeng's "Haiyan" and prose theory in the Dawn Literary Journal. It's just a naked slap in the face.

"What's the big deal about that stinky boy!" Song Yang snorted coldly in his heart as he began to write an article.

Song Yang visited a lot of forums, summarized the views of academic masters, and then sorted out an article. In the article, Song Yang criticized Lin Ruofeng's prose and poetry for being ridiculous and disrespectful to tradition, and at the end he also called for resisting such vices, not to blacken traditional prose, and to give prose a clear and clear sky.

As the largest literary society in Jiangnan City, Lin Yi's influence is naturally needless to say, and as soon as the journal is released, it is to let Song Yang's article enter everyone's sight.

"How can this be? Even Chaoyang has written articles criticizing prose, poetry, and prose theory!" said a reader who looked at the evening magazine and was surprised, Chaoyang is Song Yang's pen name.

"No rhyme is not poetry, it makes sense!"

"I also think that this prose poem is simply four dislikes!"

"I don't feel like there's anything to look at, I still think Chaoyang's article is good-looking, the text is too beautiful, and such an article is the real beautiful article!"

"Support the rising sun, resist prose poetry!

"I read Chenxi's literature this morning and felt that there was some truth, but now when I read Mr. Chaoyang's article, I realized that it was nonsense before. ”

"That's right, if prose doesn't pursue prose, how can it be called prose? And what Mr. Chaoyang said is well-founded, I think that prose poetry and prose theory are nonsense!"

"No matter, support the rising sun, resist prose poetry and prose theory!"

"That's right, resolutely resist this decadent culture!"

In an instant, the voice of Jiangnan City's boycott of prose poetry and prose theory became louder and louder, and it also led the war to the Internet, and major forums began to call for a boycott of prose poetry and prose theory.

And at this moment, those academic masters also jumped out and praised Chaoyang for writing a good article, which is the pillar of traditional literature and prose.

However, the situation is not one-sided, and where there is resistance, there are naturally supporters.

"There's a, I think this prose poem is very good!"

"That's it, I also think that the prose published by Dawn is particularly reasonable, and recently I looked at the beautiful article published by Lin Yi, and I couldn't bear it!"

"Yes, yes, I moaned without illness throughout the article, and I don't know what to say after reading it!"

"There is really a big problem with contemporary prose, as it is said in the prose theory, the prose has gone astray!"

"Now the literary world is just some old stubborn, self-respecting, conformist, not accepting new blood at all, afraid of threatening his position. ”

"That's right, now the article is all those over and over again, and it's rare for a prose poem to come out! It's still so suppressed, is it that when modern poetry first came out, did it still have to follow the sentence equality and rhyme?"

"I don't know about prose poetry, but I think prose theory is very reasonable, and now prose is like this, blindly pursuing beautiful words, but in fact there is no connotation at all. Especially that Chaoyang is writing more and more rubbish!"

"It's just that it's completely different from what you write, "Haiyan" is different, at least I know what it expresses!

"Support prose poetry and prose theory!"

"That's right, literature just needs constant innovation!"

......

Prose Poetry Controversy!

The Prose Controversy!

Growing.

And the Dawn Literary Society has also been affected, after all, Lin Yi is the first literary club, plus Lin Yi has always been popular Song Yang, the celebrity effect, the two-pronged approach, led to a sharp decline in the sales of Dawn literary magazines.

Seeing this, the Dawn Literature Club immediately couldn't sit still.

Not to mention the decrease in sales, the other party also used literary righteousness to suppress Chenxi in the article, thinking that Chenxi was groping for traditional literature, regardless of whether it was good or bad, and actually published such bad articles and remarks for the sake of sales.

You can start over again with reduced sales, but once your reputation is bad and you have this black cauldron on your back, then the Dawn Literary Society will come to an end.

At this time, Zuo Yuqing hurriedly contacted Lin Ruofeng.
