Chapter 338: Guinness Records, Nobel's Gamble (Part II)
In addition to some irresistible and irreversible historical and practical reasons, other reasons such as translation, cultural differences, and institutional differences are also common.
In short, the situation is very complicated, so complicated that for so many years, we never know the real cause, just like hives, once done, the air, diet, mosquitoes and even the cold medicine taken three months ago are regarded as possible causes, but even the doctor cannot give the real pathogen.
For so many years, we never won an award, we didn't know why, and later, when we won the award, we didn't know why.
The situation in the world in which Liu Jingting now lives is similar, but the slight difference is that the world has completely put the factor of "position" on the table, and the ideological surprise has become an insurmountable gap and the final explanation.
This is why everyone is so excited and excited about "Liu Jingting's rejection of the Nobel Prize", and for the same reason, this is why so many people are disappointed in it.
No matter what you say, how loud your voice is, the facts are always the best counterattack, if Gu Yongsheng can win the Nobel Prize in Literature, the next argument will not have to say anything, simply link the news.
It's a pity that "Liu Jingting didn't even dare to sign up."
β¦β¦
The Swedish Academy of Letters also quickly clarified the news, claiming that the Chinese side has applications for literary awards every year, but there is not a single applicant with the signature "Liu Jingting", and it is impossible to talk about the rejection of the nomination.
This statement quickly pushed the fading news of "Liu Jingting's rejection of the Nobel Prize in Literature" to the forefront again, and this time extended its scope to the whole world, and soon the ridicule from all over the world spread over the wall to China.
"Could it be that the Chinese have some kind of 'award-winning paranoia', directing and acting in this drama of nomination and rejection?"
A college student from a university in Sweden saw the news and immediately went to his Facebook page to complain.
"This is supposed to be an expression of oriental humor, and I suspect that the next Oscar can be prepared to be rejected by them. β
An American college student relayed and complained.
"This is obvious commercial propaganda, Liu Jingting who wrote Sherlock Holmes. It's not in the same time zone as Nobel. β
The British have few doubts, after all, in their minds, except for Sherlock Holmes, the poem and the two plays are not much worse than those Nobel literary works.
The first batch of complaints and ridicule mostly came from young college students, although there was no lack of malicious ridicule and slander, but in general, they were all jubilation on the Internet. It didn't attract the special attention of most mainstream media, and because Liu Jingting explained the matter early on, Gu Yongsheng's readers' counterattack quickly suppressed the momentum of those spoofs.
"Whether we are directing and acting by ourselves, or are you entertaining yourself, please open your eyes. Take a look clearly, Liu Jingting had responded as early as the beginning of the matter. β
A Chinese student at Yale University fought back on behalf of the vast number of Gu Yongsheng's readers.
The spoof has thus entered a chaotic war, and all kinds of topics that have been talked about hundreds of times before have been brought out and stirred up again, to sum up, it is just "you will never get a Nobel" and "You have a problem with your ass, we are not rare".
Just when the debate between the two sides was in full swing, something unexpected happened. A female writer from Germany, who is very popular for this year's Nobel Prize, suddenly responded to this incident, she first criticized the current overall cultural environment in China, and then commented on several of Liu Jingting's works one by one, and finally pointed out that Liu Jingting is a businessman author through and through, not to say no, if I learn that he was nominated in 50 years (the Nobel nominee will not be announced until 50 years later), I will feel ashamed.
C Hesta is a writer with a very strong style, according to herself. Fascinated by ancient Chinese culture, she admired Mencius and Han Feizi among the pre-Qin princes, and visited China five years ago, but she was disappointed by what she saw and heard, and wrote an article on public criticism of China's current cultural situation after returning to China.
Hesta's remarks caused an uproar around the world, and what was even more unexpected was that after Hesta. Japan's Zaishima, Sweden's Loerte, and the United States' Blueprint have successively expressed their support for Hurstadt, and although they are very restrained and particular in their words, the disdain between their words is still very obvious.
As a hot topic on the Internet escalated into a cultural event, the mainstream media in various countries immediately opened a special area to introduce the beginning and end of this cultural confrontation.
Just as this debate is intensifying. The first Guinness World Publishing Records in the history of the application of a Chinese cultural company, Yingri Culture, was announced.
Chinese writer Gu Yongsheng's "seven serials in one magazine", "five novellas in the same year", and "all novels in the same period on the best-selling list" and other three deeds have all passed the GuΓ² Guinness assessment, and one person has set three publication records at the same time, and the interesting thing is that one person has set three Guinness records at the same time has also become a Guinness record.
With the final listing of "Liancheng Jue" and "Flying Fox Gaiden", and with the executive editor-in-chief of "Jianglu" often saying the call to "pay attention to novels", domestic readers really put more attention into new novels.
In "Liancheng Jue", the elegant Miss Ling was buried alive by her biological father and suffocated in a coffin.
However, to the reader's comfort, the whole story of darkness as hell on earth still retains a little hope in the end, and at the end of the story, the disheartened Di Yun returns to Snow Valley with the child of his first love "Qingren", only to see the beautiful girl Shui Sheng who is waiting for him.
As for "Flying Fox Gaiden", there really is no effective explanation or explanation of the ending of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", another story is completely complete, full of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" Hu Fei's rich and unyielding personality, telling the regret of the girl Cheng Lingsu and Yuan Ziyi who can't love it, and points out "A qiΔ love meeting, impermanence is rare for a long time." There are many fears in life, and life is in danger of morning dew. From love to worry, from love to fear. If you are separated from your lover, you will be carefree and fearless", and readers will be embarrassed.
Although the news and rumors about Gu Yongsheng all over the world are all kinds of thrilling. Most readers in China still gave up their plans to quarrel with netizens from other countries for the time being, and their attention returned to Gu Yongsheng's works.
After all, compared with public opinion gossip, the five "Gu Yongsheng novels" with different styles and charms are still more attractive to everyone.
Ironically, Gu Yongsheng's readers' large-scale war avoidance was considered a lack of confidence and a "surrender in a sense", and for a time, foreign related media and online competition all had the absolute upper hand. The meaning and nature of this cultural controversy has quietly changed,Soon attracted the attention of the leaders above,After they understood the relevant situation,Immediately made instructions,So,An order from Yanjing silently came to the office of the director of Jianghai Vientiane School Parkγ
"I want Liu Jingting to come forward to explain in person. And give an appropriate riposte. β
After confirming this order, Director Kang was silent for a long time, and then replied: "I have to consult Liu Jingting himself first, if he doesn't agree, I can't force it." β
For Kang Yuchang's response, the above is not surprised, after all. This is not the first time, and there is more than one way to send the task to Liu Jingting.
On the first day after the National Day holiday, Lao Li and Gong Yuanhe made a phone call to Liu Jingting respectively, and that night, Yang Lilu's mother made a phone call to Xu Qing on behalf of her husband.
"In fact, we all know that now everyone can read books with peace of mind is the best state. β
It wasn't until late at night that Liu Jingting finally had time to talk to Xu Qing and Gong Chengpin about this topic.
Xu Qing was speechless. Silent, Gong Chengpin said: "When you get to this position, some things are just involuntarily, just like being forced to sing on stage by you at the New Year's Day party." β
Liu Jingting shook his head and smiled.
Gong Chengpin continued: "You must know that you are not a nameless junior now. β
Xu Qing continued: "Now it seems that this formation is already an international celebrity. β
"Aunt Qing, don't hurt me first, teach me what to do. β
"It's rare to be so modest. β
Liu Jingting grinned. looked at Xu Qing sincerely.
"I originally meant not to care so much, who likes to say what to say, but when it comes to the stars and the moon and Vientiane, just like what Mr. Gong said. In spite of oneself. β
"Aunt Qing also means to respond?"
Xu Qing spread her hands.
"Then reply to their throats, as if I was hypocritical. β
Gong Chengpin was so keen, he said, "I can arrange a ten-minute prime time broadcast for you." β
Xu Qing and Liu Jingting looked at Gong Chengpin together, but Gong Zong's face did not change, and his inquiring eyes were still on Liu Jingting.
"Five minutes is enough. Liu Jingting said with a smile.
β¦β¦
At noon on November 9th, the noon news of Xingyue TV suddenly inserted a piece of information: "At half past seven tonight, after the end of the daily news, this station specially invited Mr. Gu Yongsheng to respond to the recent hot issues about himself, so stay tuned." β
After this information, the official website of Xingyue immediately spread the same message, and then Liyang micro blog and "Craftsman Record" official Weibo were transferred successively, and this news also once again provoked the battle of domestic readers**, everyone began to return to the battlefield while waiting for "Liu Jingting's response".
At half past seven in the evening, Liu Jingting, who was in the crew of "Journey to the West", appeared in front of the camera as scheduled, and the screen could see that Zhu Hongyan, the first sister of Xingyue TV, was interviewing Liu Jingting, and after a few questions about the filming of "Journey to the West", Zhu Hongyan asked: "May I ask Director Liu, what do you think about your rejection of the news that Nobel was misinterpreted by many foreign writers?"
Liu Jingting smiled at the camera and said: "I hope that friends at home and abroad who question this matter will stop saying that, the truth of the facts is not like that, please listen to my explanation." β
Liu Jingting suddenly said such an Internet buzzword, which made everyone sweat, and Xu Qing in front of the camera squirted out a mouthful of water, but fortunately, Liu Jingting immediately explained:
"I really didn't admit the so-called rejection before, but since so many foreign friends and even several well-known colleagues agree that I don't have such a level, then I'm here to make a bet on everyone, within three years, if I still don't win the Nobel Prize in Literature, I will quit the writing world, please ask Ms. Husta, Mr. Blueprint, Mr. Zaido and Mr. Lort would like to accompany me, and I would also like to have the opportunity to learn from Mr. Blueprint about the best-selling skills of the novel and the art of adapting the novel in film. β
Countless people were stunned in front of the TV, including the leaders of relevant departments, who meant a symbolic riposte, not a "chiluo" naked provocation.
Moreover, even if you have worked hard to create a Nobel-level novel within three years and really written a novel with Nobel quality, why is it "particularly provocative" to the world's top best-selling author and the blueprint of the novel's film of the same name has set a historical record?
"Could it be that he is really ready to take this opportunity to quit the literary world?"
Xu Qing thought of the three-year covenant and his recent expressions, and couldn't help but have this kind of question.
