Chapter 398 New Eyes Old Book
However, at this time, the martial arts readership was no longer what it used to be, and it was extremely strong, and the supporters led by the Golden Armor Guards soon rushed to the battlefield:
"For the sake of your age, I salute you Mr. Nong, just one question, have you ever read a martial arts novel in your life?"
"The titles of seven or eight families scared the baby to death, but it didn't happen. Martial arts novels are martial arts novels, just look happy and look happy, why do we have to demand it with the standards of serious novels? Why do we have to keep the literature all over the world with the same cold face?"
"Saying that martial arts novels teach bad guys, ahh
"Uncle, don't you know that our big Jin Liang is a professional in slapping the face and fighting against the killing madman? Si Haoran is not better than you, and now he is not disgraced? ”
"As for the vice chairman of the Provincial Writers Association, I don't believe that you can still write such bloody nonsense after reading Jin Liang's martial arts novels?"
"Do you dare to gamble with that? Before you write this unscrupulous article, if you have carefully read half of Jin Liang's book, Cui Benqing, Group 9 of Shiwan Village, Fengyuan County, Labor and Management County, will screw off his head and give you a night pot!!
Although many people are so angry that they are trembling, they have the feeling of watching their favorite goddess being punched, kicked, slapped, and rudely scolded and ugly, which really tears his heart, but with the organization and guidance of the Jinjia guards who have rich experience in fighting, they all know that Jin Liang has never liked online violence - especially the scolding is very substandard, so this is quite acceptable.
Nongli is not good at stubble. In the face of more than 70,000 reprimand messages in just half an hour, not only Taishan did not collapse. also continued to be condescending, and directly choked:
"Of course I haven't read anything like that. But. I haven't taken drugs, so can't I oppose drugs? I haven't prostituted, so can't I boycott pornography? So in the same way, do I still need to read the original works to approve a batch of martial arts novels? That's the treatment enjoyed by serious literature, and for this kind of unpopular writing, it is not worthy of it, even if it is counted as words. Really, far from deserved. ”
If the previous remarks are a piercing arrogance and prejudice, then these remarks are a naked derogatory insult. Compare martial arts novels with drugs and pornography!
No one can bear it, so the tiger went down the mountain, opened all his firepower, and bombarded the message sections of all his public accounts to the fullest, and the eighteen generations of ancestors were about to be rotated!
Nong Li took the lead with a clear banner and angrily criticized martial arts novels, and fiercely expressed the depression that has been held in the hearts of many traditional writers and other types of writers in the past few years. Rubbing it by, many celebrities in the literary circle, writers' circle, and cultural circle jumped out like they were competing to eat hot Xiang, and they all supported him:
"Support Chairman Nong. Literature should not be just entertainment. Ideological and spiritual values must be taken into account. ”
"A person who writes martial arts novels enters a college classroom?
"The fact that martial arts novels have become university courses is not only irresponsible to our students, but also an insult to the history of Chinese literature, Chinese culture, and Chinese education!"
"On this matter. I'm not targeting individuals, I'm targeting the responsibility of those of us who are in this era! Shout with me: Resolutely resist Jin Liang!"
In this matter, of course. In addition to some authors of martial arts novels who were forced into the united front, there is also a well-known Confucian in the capital's cultural circles -- Liao Lingjie, a famous literary historian and historian, professor of the history department of Capital Normal University, and one of the permanent speakers of the "History Forum."
This Professor Liao, who had confronted Si Haoran from north to south when "The Great Man of Chivalry, for the Country and the People" came out, and this time he resolutely stood up and supported Deng Zheng and martial arts novels:
“…… I have seen many friends in the literary circle and writers' circle criticizing martial arts novels, and I am deeply puzzled and uneasy. I feel that the theoretical basis of many current commentators is that they do not admit that popular fiction is different from serious fiction in many ways, that they do not recognize that readers have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, that they do not recognize that readers have the right to refuse to receive education in reading, that literature can be regarded as a commodity of pure entertainment, that martial arts novels are popular novels, and that martial arts novels are even fantasy novels. ”
"This kind of thinking is extremely dangerous. Regardless of whether everyone pretends to be asleep or doesn't want to wake up, martial arts novels have long occupied a place in popular genre novels by virtue of their influence, popularity, and basic literary attainments. Popular fiction is to make a fuss about the 'core interest' first, so that readers who like this kind of fun can get great spiritual satisfaction. For example, detective novels can be said to provide readers with a complex intellectual game, while martial arts novels are obviously related to the martial spirit in the bones of human beings. ”
“…… Martial arts novels blindly emphasize entertainment, so what about ideological and spiritual values? This is the question I see questioned the most today. This is indeed a question that should be answered seriously, but I think the core of this question is actually belittling and blaming martial arts novels. What I mean is that as soon as this question is raised, it puts martial arts novels in a position of being degraded and attacked, because this question presupposes a theoretical premise, which is to oppose entertainment to ideological and spiritual values, as if the two are life-and-death, and if you emphasize the entertainment of the novel, it will inevitably damage the ideological and spiritual value of the novel. ”
I think this theoretical premise is not valid, because as a kind of language art, we cannot eliminate the ideological and spiritual value of the novel, and the question is what kind of ideological and spiritual value a novel conveys to us. And this is not determined by entertainment or not, it is determined by the writer's subject, and by the writer's worldview and outlook on life. ”
"A writer of serious literature, he may not pay attention to the entertainment of novels at all, but perhaps what he conveys in his novels is a decadent, misanthropic, gray, and negative ideology, and conveys an outdated and backward spiritual value. As for martial arts novels, although it emphasizes entertainment, this entertainment is still a spiritual pastime, not a physical pastime, which is different from the pastime obtained in bathing centers and massage rooms, which is a physical pastime, while the pastime of reading genre novels stimulates spiritual activity. ”
Of course, since martial arts novels put entertainment in the first place, it is bound to dilute the ideological and spiritual value of the novel, and many martial arts novels on the market contain ideological and spiritual values that are not necessarily very profound and unique, and may only be a public thought, a kind of common-sense expression, because public ideas and common-sense expressions can win the recognition of a wider range of readers. ”
"However, there is also Jin Liang in martial arts novels. I believe that as long as these critical friends let go of their prejudices a little, spare a little effort, and read a few chapters of Jin Liang's martial arts novels, they will never casually make such ridiculous and generous opinions as today. His martial arts novels preach justice, patriotism, national equality, pacifism, and even reveal the cultural inferiority of our Chinese, and his works are very profound in thought, even more profound than some of our many serious novels. Therefore, we should not oppose the entertainment of martial arts novels on the grounds of ideology, let alone beat martial arts novels to death with a stick, because no matter what, after all, there are still masters like Jin Liang who transcend the pattern of ordinary martial arts novels!"
“…… Of course, we hope that martial arts novels can be entertaining and educational, but we must also prevent teaching and harming music. ”
Professor Liao's words were far more objective than Nong Li's murderous article, and they were quickly forwarded by the Golden Armor Guards and martial arts fans, which can be regarded as a win back in public opinion, so as not to make Deng Zheng suffer too much.
Since Deng Zheng walked the rivers and lakes in the name of "Golden Liang", it was the first time that he was subjected to an undisguised "extreme beating" like Nong Li, so he was naturally extremely depressed and annoyed!!
He has a lot of friends, but there are very few in the real literary circle, and in this kind of competition, star artists are naturally not good at speaking, not only will they not have a positive effect, but they are afraid that they will drag their feet, so Professor Liao is also timely rain.
In this regard, Deng Zheng is naturally very grateful, grateful for recognition, and grateful for speaking out in danger...... However, he does not particularly agree with some of Professor Liao's views.
Because he discovered that some of Professor Liao's basic literary views are not fundamentally different from those of critics like Nong Li!
The reason why he came out to defend martial arts novels and defend him Deng Zheng was because he discovered that serious novels can also be written in the form of martial arts novels, and even more serious novels than serious novels!
So in Deng Zheng's view, Liao Lingjie's voice of defense is weak, even weak.
In particular, I sell garlic sprouts that are garlic sprouts, which have its own irreplaceable uniqueness, and I have to force it to be crowned with a sentence "The appearance is very similar to the green onion, and some of the taste is not worse than the green onion", what is the point?
Is it so difficult to admit that martial arts novels are just a kind of popular fiction, a genre novel, and a kind of popular entertainment novel that ordinary people like to see?
In other words, if I don't mention the 'great man of chivalry', I don't mention the 'two-ribbed knife', even if the core values of my book are just the most simple and simple 'grow up to be a good person', as long as the book is written well, many readers love to read it, and the popularity is high, isn't it also good?
However, these heartfelt words were nowhere to be poured out, and they were stunned for a while, and a thousand words only turned into a sentence on the Weibo of "Writer Jin Liang":
"Read old books with new eyes, old books are new books, read new books with old eyes, new books are old books. (To be continued.) )
