55 Passing Clouds
The Bund, a place full of flowers.
There is such an inconspicuous building, which comes from a Western-style building from a hundred years ago.
A lot of things have happened here that have changed the country.
More than 30 years ago, it became a permanent institution, the organizing committee of the Maotou Literature Award.
This year, the quadrennial Mao Dun Literature Award was held again.
However, the convention was not here, but at the Harbour Concert Hall.
Also on the Bund.
A number of media outlets were present, including the film crew of CCTV News Network.
Not to mention the print media, the TV media came to seventeen.
Jing Ku sat very far in the front area.
This time, there are three big prizes.
Literary Achievement Award, Literary Pioneer Award, Literary Inheritance Award.
Because it is inherited from a great writer, among the three awards, the inheritance award is the most important.
Winning the first place in the Literary Inheritance Award means that in the past four years, this work has ranked first in the literary world.
The host Jing Ku is not familiar with it, but the host is familiar with it and made a little joke with Jing Ku.
"Just now, in the background, I met the hottest writer of the year, Wufang Panshi, the name of Wufang Panshi is very loud, but his real name is not familiar to everyone, his name is Jingku. I asked, Mr. Wufang Rock, what do you think is the probability of your winning. He replied, you look at my name, Jing Ku, it's really hard to be in the background. ”
The audience laughed, and Jing greeted the camera with a wry smile.
"Well, let's invite Mr. Lin Yutan, vice chairman of the National Writers Association, to the stage to unveil the shortlist for the first award. ”
A middle-aged man walked up to the stage: "Good evening, everyone, I'm Lin Yutan." ”
Accompanied by applause, Lin Yutan smiled: "In the past four years, we have seen another progress in the central literary circle, during which the authors representing the central country have worked hard in their own fields and created many immortal poems and thought-provoking works. ”
"2014 Maotou Literature Award, Literary Achievement Award, shortlisted works. "Drifting Clouds"!"
"In 2011, Mr. Xiannong wrote a realistic modern poem, showing the romanticism of working people in the midst of hard work, which was deeply liked by the judges, and I personally liked it very much. ”
"2014 Maotou Literature Award, Literary Achievement Award, shortlisted works. "That man"!"
In 2013, Mr. Zhuoqi's long prose attracted a lot of attention as soon as it came out, and its beautiful words and deep connotations complemented each other, and it was selected as a must-read text for middle school students, which is also the only modern work in recent years. ”
"The award-winning works will be born in these two works. ”
Then it is very clear, if it is three shortlisted, it is two out of three, and if it is two shortlisted, it is one of two.
Yun Piao's writing is very good, but compared to that person, it is still a big difference, and the more important thing is the gap between Xian Nong and Zhuo Qi.
"The 2014 Maotou Literature Award, the Literary Achievement Award, the award-winning work "That Man" award-winning author Mr. Zhuo Qi!
Gan Rufang whispered beside him: "Then what clouds are drifting are far less than "Generation". ”
The night gave me black eyes, and I used them to find the light. This poem is stronger than him, and it can only make Comrade Li Bai come up with immortal poems......
"On this occasion, don't talk about that. Jing Ku applauded and smiled, and lowered his voice in response.
What's more, Yun Piao didn't win an award, and a generation was selected to accompany "That Man"?
Next up for the Literary Pioneer Award, a novel was finally shortlisted.
is the work of a well-known 'young writer'.
This young writer who became famous at a young age has survived until now, has become a middle-aged writer, and was finally shortlisted for the Maotou Literature Award.
However, I didn't win the prize.
The winner was a book of poems called "Between the Flowers".
Then, finally came the main event.
Literary Heritage Award.
"Let us proudly invite Mr. Tao Yao, chairman of the National Writers Association, to come to the stage to open the lottery. ”
Tao Yao was already an old man with silver hair, and he had won this award about five or twenty years ago.
By the way, Lin Yutan, who won the lottery before, also won, but it was not a literary inheritance award, but a literary achievement award.
It seems that the winners of the lottery will be those who have won prizes in the past.
Tao Yao opened his hand card after coming to the stage.
"I lived through the most prosperous era of literature in my country, when I was very young, only a few years old, and in the years that followed, the progress of literature fell into a bottleneck, even a regression. Twenty years ago, I was fortunate to receive this award, and Ms. Wang Yun, who presented the award to me that year, said that it is my responsibility to let my generation inherit traditional literature and carry it forward. ”
"After so many years, in this edition, I suddenly saw the seeds of literature flourishing again, and I liked the three shortlisted works very much. ”
Three, that's two out of three.
Gan Rufang whispered: "If you choose two out of three, is there still a chance?"
"Look, if you win the prize, you can get it, and if you can't forget it. ”
"In 2013, a novel appeared on the Internet, and it became popular, I don't know how to use a computer, so I asked my grandson to teach me how to use it, and then I read this book, and I was shocked. Although the writing ability is a little immature, I am amazed by the completeness of the novel's structure and the beauty of creativity. Even when I was at my strongest, the works I created were not as good as one thousandth of this novel, which is "Journey to the West", written by the young author Wufang Panshi, and has not yet been completed. ”
Because of this, the jury also has a big disagreement on whether this work will be shortlisted in this year's year. In the end, we unanimously agreed that this style of writing will be the mainstream way of writing after the advent of the Internet age, so we did not stick to tradition and selected it. I dare to say that if it was in the year when I won the award, "Journey to the West" would definitely win the award. ”
As a senior, I can let go and say that my works are not as good as future generations, and it is not without reason that this chairman can be this chairman.
And in 2012, another book became even more popular all over the country, that is, Guan Zhu, the author of the essay collection "Spring and Tang". ”
This collection of essays is really popular, and generally speaking, literary awards are not given to best-selling authors.
The reason is that the general literary works are bought very poorly, the author has to live, and many times he has to rely on various literary awards, and the best-selling author who lives well will not be considered for awards.
But with the prose integration as a bestseller, it is Guan Zhu's strong ability, which also proves that this work is really good.
"Jingle bell ......" At this time, the phone rang.
Jing Ku glanced at it, it was Song Zixiao calling, hung up the phone, and Jing Ku responded by text message: "I am at the scene of the Maotou Literature Award, and I can't answer the phone." ”
In 2011, another book will go down in history, the modern poem "Algae Mud", which is a poignant love story with a perfectly complex three-part structure, which is loved by readers. ”
The phone vibrates and the text message comes.
Jing Ku opened the text message: "Things are very important, no matter what you are doing, you must answer the phone." ”
On the stage, Tao Yao opened another envelope and was about to draw the lottery.
Jing Ku hesitated, got up and walked outside from the red carpet in the aisle.
Tao Yao: "In 2014, Maotou Literature Award, Literary Inheritance Award, award-winning works, poet Yihe of "Algae Mud", and Qiao Zhongliang, author of "Spring and Tang Dynasty". ”
And at this moment, the camera is looking for the winners, and it is also looking for the losers.
Jing Ku had already reached the end of the road, picked up the phone, and seemed to have gotten up and left the scene before the announcement.
"Hey, old Song, what's so urgent?"
"Jing Ku, Yang Chen and Shi Jing conspired to kick you and me out. ”
"Kicked out?"
"They shelved the World of Warcraft project and developed a new game with a high degree of similarity, Skypache Sanctuary!"
