Chapter 260: Red Writer
Zhuang Yan sat in his study and thought about it for a long time, but finally decided not to make any reply.
If he responds, he can express his opinion of the book, or he can encourage readers to read the book deeply and experience what the book wants to express.
However, one Zhuang Yan thinks that such behavior is a bit stupid, and the other thinks it is unnecessary.
If you like it, you naturally like it, and what you can experience can naturally be experienced, and it's definitely not that you can change them by saying a few words.
In the book "The Old Man and the Sea", Zhuang Yan has done some processing to weaken the regionality of the story.
The background of the story in the original book is Cuba, but Zhuang Yan did not write like this, but only wrote that there is such a place, such a sea, and such an old man.
There is no problem with this treatment, because the story of this book has nothing to do with the background, it can take place in any port, any sea area, and the protagonist can also be any old man, he can be called Zhang San or Li Si, and it will not affect the content of the story.
And the reason why it was handled this way was because Zhuang Yan considered that he had not been to Cuba, so there was no need to write about Cuba to make people criticize.
Shaking his head, Zhuang Yan put this matter behind him for the time being, and instead clicked on the "Sophie's World" folder on the computer desktop.
He has copied the book, and now he wants to localize the book and make it Chinese.
The setting of the story can be copied to China without any problems.
It's not hard, it's really hard to get to the bottom of the philosophical questions that Sophie's world raises.
The so-called thoroughness, of course, does not mean that Zhuang Yan should become a philosopher and be proficient in these philosophical theories.
His understanding is actually to find out whether these philosophical theories exist in this world.
If you are a person of the nineteenth century, you don't need to bother, because they are all set, and both worlds are the same.
But some people who existed in the twentieth century should take a closer look, such as Freud, who was born in 1856, because of the changes in the world, the later works must be different from the previous world, so we have to read all his works, and then check whether there are any loopholes in the written writing.
There is also the pair of Sartre and Simonpova, which does not exist in this world at all, so the argument about existentialism in the chapter "Our Time" in the book has to be changed.
After the book can't be copied, the reader sees these two people and asks, why haven't we heard of these two philosophers?
Fortunately, the philosophical ideas written in the whole book are basically before the twentieth century, so there is not much that Zhuang Yan needs to change, and if he wants to change too much, Zhuang Yan will even give up the book.
After working until more than eleven o'clock, Zhuang Yan turned off the computer and went back to his room to sleep.
……
Early in the morning of January 2, Duan Qirui got up early in the morning, went to a nearby park for a morning exercise, and then returned home refreshed.
He was born in the army, and the habits left in the army are still there, and it is also because he has been exercising for a long time, so his body is still very tough.
Duan Qirui, who returned home, made himself a cup of tea after breakfast, sat on the sofa and hugged his tablet and began to watch the news.
For the first two years, he had been reading paper newspapers, but later he felt that paper newspapers were too limited, so he also kept pace with the times and bought a tablet computer to browse the news every day.
In addition to reading the news, he also has his own social network accounts, where he occasionally updates his updates. After a long time, he also has a group of fans.
Of course, this group of fans basically went to his personal profile, because his personal profile was written with the words "former senior official of Jinling City".
First of all, I looked at a regular news website such as the Zhonghua News Agency, and took a general look at today's important news at home and abroad.
After reading it, he took a look at the social networking site again, and as soon as he opened the social networking site, he found that today's hot topic was actually related to Zhuang Yan.
"Famous scholars criticized "The Old Man and the Sea" as clear water, without any aftertaste. ”
Duan Qirui frowned, "Isn't this "The Old Man and the Sea" Zhuang Yan's new book, which has already been released?"
With curiosity, I clicked into the following link and came to the news, only to know that Zhuang Yan's new book had been sold nationwide yesterday. And what is said in the news is that the famous writer Tie Xinfa fof commented on Zhuang Yan's new book as clear water.
"Iron Heart?" Duan Qirui tilted his head and thought for a while before remembering who it was, "Isn't that the red writer?" ”
The so-called red writers refer to those writers who specialize in writing works with main themes. Tiexin's works are basically in praise of the country and the military. However, Duan Qirui, as a veteran, did not buy his account.
Because he thinks that this kind of red writer is too kitsch, it has been better in recent years, and it has been restrained a little. In the past ten years, there were literally all kinds of demons and monsters, and the entire literary world was full of miasma.
For example, Duan Chery once read a short story praising soldiers, in which the soldiers were completely mythical, and there were even cases where some soldiers rushed to people's bunkers with a grenade in their hands to blow up the base.
When he saw this article at that time, Duan Qirui was so angry that he almost didn't scold his mother. He has been fighting for so many years, and he has never seen anyone who can blow up someone's stronghold with a grenade.
People who have never been on the battlefield don't know where a heavy machine gun is going, people can't get past it at all, and a random stray bullet can pop your head open.
Not to mention people, even if they drive an armored car, they may not be able to drive in front of the base point under the suppression of other people's firepower.
There are things to bomb bunkers, but they are definitely not something that can be done by one person, and it takes dozens or even hundreds of lives to pile up.
One died on the second, the second died on the third, and it was completely a matter of using human life to consume other people's bullets.
In those days, if you asked a soldier if he was a soldier and asked him if bullets made money or human lives were worth it, he would definitely answer that it was bullets, because that's exactly what happened.
Although he didn't have a good impression of a red writer like Tie Xin, Duan Qirui was not in a hurry to make a conclusion, because he hadn't seen Zhuang Yan's new book yet, and he didn't know what the new book was.
In order to verify what things were like, Duan Qirui didn't even go out to buy paper books and read them back, but read them online directly on the website of the literary and art world.
"The Old Man and the Sea" was released online and physical at the same time, giving readers a chance to choose, to watch the entity if they want to see the entity, and to watch it online if they want to be online.
