Chapter 353: World Wave (End)

Of course, at the same time, I know that Wilt and Gominck are Liu Jingting, as well as the five academicians of the Swedish Academy of Letters, which is now the Nobel Prize jury, because in the application materials for the Nobel Prize in Literature, the author has to register his real name and identity verification.

"Wirther, Gominck, what kind of strange pseudonyms are these?" a female academician's question broke the silence.

"There is no such pen name in China, but as far as I know, this Mr. Liu Jingting once wrote a novel serialized in a magazine under four pseudonyms at the same time, which caused a sensation. As the only sinologist on the Nobel Prize jury, Professor Niu Kailang said with a smile.

"A big boy who is very restless. ”

"He is also a very talented young writer. ”

"Let's not discuss what kind of person Liu Jingting is, let's talk about how to choose first?" asked the chairman of the committee, Long Defu.

"I'll start with my own opinion," Niu cheerfully nodded to the table, "both 'Waiting for Godot' and 'Gitanjali' already meet the requirements of the Nobel Prize in Literature, and these two works are also the most outstanding works I have seen in recent years, and I think they can be shortlisted." ”

"Now the outside public opinion may not know that these two works belong to Liu Jingting, but the voices of the two works are equal, it seems that Mr. Liu Jingting is prepared. Another academician continued.

"For the Nobel Prize in Literature, the call has never been more accurate. The female academician didn't know if she was laughing at herself or had other intentions.

"Moreover, the new work "Heaven Killing" submitted by Golosa this year is also very good, and the progress and improvement are very clear. Therefore, I still insist on home Llosa. ”

"The problem now is that if you don't choose Liu Jingting. There may be voices from the outside world who question our impartiality and think that we are deliberately making things difficult for Liu Jingting, after all, the bet he shouted is still circulating among the world's readers. ”

"This is also the joint, since ancient times, there has never been a writer so ignorant, if we give him the prize this year, I don't know what shocking words he will say. ”

Several academicians argued. But Lundf remained silent.

"The original intention of the Nobel Prize in Literature was to reward every writer who has produced the most outstanding work in the field of literature with ideal tendencies, among other factors. can be put aside for the time being, or the reason why Liu Jingting dared to make a three-year covenant was because he had this self-confidence. And the reason why he dared to give us his real name. It shows that he also expects our impartiality, so he ......"

"Academician Gran, we haven't forgotten the original intention of the Nobel Prize, otherwise we wouldn't have to sit here to discuss whether to send Liu Jingting to the finals, but I think that Gollosa, who has applied for two years, is more qualified for this award. ”

Niu Kailang said disapprehantly: "I am now translating Liu Jingting's "Journey to the West", and frankly speaking, his work also has the qualifications to apply for the Nobel Prize, and at the same time. As far as I know, the TV series adapted from this novel has also set off a huge viewing craze in China. It can be said that it has both popular and artistic characteristics. ”

"It's a pity that he didn't sign up for this work, can it be said that he doesn't have that much confidence in our justice after all?"

Although the selection records and discussions of the Nobel Prize in Literature have been top secret for 50 years, we can also roughly see from the interviews with the judges of the jury after the Nobel Prize.

At this time, the competition between Niu Kailang and that Professor Bai is just a trailer, and when it enters the final stage and the fifteen academicians jointly decide the final result, it will be called a chaos.

"I already understand what everyone means," Lundef finally spoke, "The Nobel Prize in Literature will always follow Mr. Nobel's original intention to be awarded, and will always uphold the most fair attitude in the selection, in order to dig out the most outstanding works of this era, so we have our own dignity and perseverance, although the two works of the Chinese author Liu Jingting are very good, but his own character and attitude towards the Nobel Prize are very puzzling, since Academician Gran just mentioned his other work "Journey to the West" is also eligible for selection, so can we wait for this work to be translated and then screened again?"

"I object," Niu Kailang immediately raised his hand and said: ""Journey to the West" is huge, and now my translations can only be published volume by volume, and when all the translations are completed, it may be two years later." ”

"Doesn't Professor Glenn know that there are authors who have been applying for the Nobel Prize for seven years in a row?"

"No, if Your Excellency the President also thinks that Liu Jingting cannot run for this year's Nobel Prize, then I would like to hand over this final decision to all colleagues in the Faculty of Letters. ”

"Does Professor Glenn insist?" asked Chairman Lundef.

"I insisted on doing it. Niu replied categorically.

"Whether anyone seconded it. ”

"I agree with Professor Glenn's suggestion. "It was the female academician who spoke.

Chairman Lundev nodded and said, "Then hand over 'Waiting for Godot' and 'Gitanjali' to the academy and be voted on by all academicians collectively." ”

……

"What are your odds?"

Xu Qing and Liu Jingting, who had already come to Rome from Greece, were eating noodles in a seafood restaurant at this time, and Xu Qing, who had endured this topic for a long time, finally gave up the psychological war with Liu Jingting, a monster, and asked in an indignant tone.

"There is no chance of winning. Liu Jingting replied dryly, and then continued to eat noodles.

"Don't come with me like this. ”

Liu Jingting stopped his chopsticks and explained: "The real names of the two works are my "real names", Aunt Qing, what do you think my chances are?"

Xu Qing was stunned, then frowned, and finally just wanted to speak, but stopped, and finally asked, "Then why do you still use your real name?"

"Test each other and show my sincerity. ”

Xu Qing pondered for a while, understood what Liu Jingting meant, and said with a smile: "You can't help but be too confident in yourself." ”

Liu Jingting also smiled and said, "People don't believe in it. ”

Xu Qing blackened the line and said, "The letter here is integrity, right?"

"Look at your own explanation, there are also people who say that the "Xi" in "learning and learning" is an internship. Doesn't that make sense?"

Xu Qing was speechless, so she had to bow her head and eat noodles.

"Like the owner of this noodle stall, he thinks his noodles are the best in Italy. Isn't that bullish spirit a kind of self-confidence, and isn't it the motivation to support him to stick to his career?"

Where did Xu Qing allow a junior to preach to herself all the time, and countered: "I only know that if you miss the award again this year, you will only have one year, and if you fail in the trial, I can be sure that you will definitely lose." Could it be that you are really ready to give up the pen name 'Gu Yongsheng'?"

"If I get to that point, I can't help it, speaking of which. A few days ago, Yi Shui'an told me about changing his pen name. ”

Xu Qing shook her head disapprovingly and said, "Do you think it's so easy to raise a pen name?"

Liu Jingting didn't answer this question, because he didn't actually have any plans for this at all.

"At least consider what those pseudonyms mean to the reader, right?"

"Readers only care about good stories. ”

"When you say that, those literary and artistic workers who have worked hard to build their personal brands are afraid that they will not be able to agree. ”

Liu Jingting suddenly smiled bitterly.

At this time, an old man came into the small restaurant. Sit down at the table next to Liu Jingting and Xu Qing. I ordered a bowl of noodles in authentic Italian.

"You see, not all Italians like pasta. ”

"Not all Chinese like ramen, right?"

The two were chatting in a low voice, and the old man suddenly looked at Liu Jingting and said a subdued Chinese: "Mud is a monk with a smile?"

Liu Jingting pointed to himself, first greeted the old man in the Italian he had just learned, and then asked in Chinese: "You, recognize, de, me?"

The old man nodded and said, "Mud is Chinese, writer." I went to China and saw mud. ”

Liu Jingting smiled. He said hello politely and was about to end the conversation, but the old man was very talkative and asked for advice: "May I sit together?"

Xu Qing didn't wait for Liu Jingting to speak, and replied in Italian: "Yes." ”

In the next half hour of chatting, Liu Jingting was shocked to see that this old man was actually a diplomat, because he was on vacation now, and ran here to eat noodles, which made Xu Liu and the others sigh the true meaning of "Roman holiday".

"China's vacations are for better jobs, and theirs are for better vacations. ”

When the old man knew that their next stop was Venice, he immediately recommended attractions such as the Bridge of Sighs, the Golden Palace and the Colored Island, and Xu Liu and the others were just about to nod their heads in agreement, but the old man changed his words and said to Liu Jingting: "I hope you can leave a poem in Venice." ”

Liu Jingting subconsciously wanted to refuse, but suddenly his heart moved, and he replied, "I will do my best." ”

……

Liu Jingting Xu Qing said goodbye to the old man, rushed from Rome to Venice, an hour later, the plane landed at Marco Polo Airport, the two got off the plane, and before they left the airport, they were stopped by several men in black suits.

"We have been entrusted by the mayor to welcome Mr. Liu Jingting and Ms. Xu Qing from China, and this is our work card. ”

Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, then carefully checked their work cards, turned back to Liu Jingting and said, "I came to ask you to write a psalm." ”

Liu Jingting said to Xu Qing: "Aunt Qing, you told them that we understand the mayor's kindness, and we understand the mayor's intentions, and we will not let him down." ”

The man said, "I understand what Mr. Liu meant, and in that case, Mr. Liu and Miss Xu, I hope you have a good time in Venice." After saying that, he turned around and left.

"It's fine. Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "The order I received should be 'don't have any embarrassment'." ”

"Pretty polite. ”

"You're big enough. ”

"Let's just keep a low profile. ”

The next day, the Venice Morning Post headlined: "Chinese writer Liu Jingting dedicates himself to Venice!"

"It is one of the three major international film festivals in the world. ”

Xu Qing and Liu Jingting only learned the news the next night, so when they sailed around the city on the third day, the secret words of the two were: "I heard that Liu Jingting is also in Venice." ”

When you meet someone, say it again, and try it again and again.

"This is a thief crying out for a plan to catch a thief. Xu Qing smiled and complained, "But they are bound to get your 'Psalms', see how you deal with it?"

……

……

Three months later, "Shakespeare's most mature comedy" "The Merchant of Venice" was performed in Venice, and unlike "Waiting for Godot", "Venice" immediately won rave reviews from audiences and critics, and the next 32 consecutive performances were full of audiences, and "The Wisdom of Baucia" quickly swept through Italy and then spread to European countries.

Ten years of pavilion wearing, Liu Jingting passed through Italy, and there was "The Merchant of Venice" in that world! (To be continued......
