Chapter 170: Shen's Technique
There was silence in the room, and several masters had thoughtful expressions on their faces.
A curious meeting between seniors and juniors seems to have turned into an academic seminar.
Han Qigong and Gui Jinglin are representatives of ancient and modern literary styles, and Tong Bailing is an authority in appreciation, both of which have been touched.
Shen Zhe's main point is that Wenyan is no longer a tool of written language, but a matrix that carries culture.
The old gentleman suddenly looked at Han Qigong with a smile and said, "According to this statement, the inheritance of literary language is the job of educators, and now that you put more energy into that ancient literature association, it is a bit of putting the cart before the horse?"
"That seems to be the case. Han Qigong smiled bitterly.
"In today's society, there are endless good and bad thoughts, but it is also unfounded?" Tong Bailing said.
Han Qigong nodded and said: "The cultural factor is integrated into the bones, as long as this is not lost, Huaxia is still Huaxia, and our cultural compatibility itself is very high." ”
Shen Zhe's thoughts suddenly turned in another direction.
On this land, the traditional cultures of the two planes are extremely similar, and they are both facing the same problem.
People always have to die.
Beggars, citizens, elites...... They all have to take their last breath, and no matter how good the external conditions are, they can't escape.
In the eyes of those sages who are at the forefront of their thinking, it is unnecessary to fight as big as war, as small as fighting, and even as personal **.
Bypass all the questions and explore the ultimate proposition of why and how to live the meaning of life.
Heaven and man are one
Be with God
to achieve the emancipation of all mankind......
are all manifestations of this kind of thinking, and the results are both good and bad.
While thinking, I live in the real world, and all kinds of temptations can not be resisted by anyone except saints.
As a result, some strange things happened around the world.
Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy people's desires
resurrection
Karma, the cycle of life and death......
Believing in any kind of thought, at least you will not live aimlessly, or have hope.
This is what thinkers and saints do, and with the explosion of modern technology, life is becoming more and more comfortable, and this ultimate proposition is selectively forgotten.
But one day it will be remembered again.
When I think of Chinese people, they are hardworking, greedy, and take advantage of small advantages...... Many Westerners have different understandings, and that's because people here are more realistic.
This is reflected in cultural choices.
The most widely recognized traditional thought is Confucius's set, which is relatively clear and understandable.
Five out of ten are determined to learn, thirty and stand, forty and not confused, fifty and know the destiny of heaven, sixty and obedient, seventy and do what you want, do not exceed the rules.
A lifetime has been arranged, so there is no need to be confused now, right?
In modern times, war broke out, and many people accepted Western ideas. Once the peace lasts for a long time, it touches the ultimate proposition, and it will return immediately.
The craze for Chinese studies in that time and space is not accidental.
The thing that carries these contents is classical Chinese, and even if the first thing is classical Chinese, you still have to learn it.
It's interesting to think about these things, Shen Zhe's thoughts are wild, but it's too troublesome to really let him calm down and study.
The fun is that he can communicate with others with the novel ideas of another time and space, and he can use the new Chinese ideas to compare with the original.
Academically entertaining.
People like Shen Zhe will never be able to be an academic master, but they have the conditions to become a pseudo-master.
Whoever lives longer in academics is generally more authoritative, because there is more time to think, and of course a few people in front of him will not be shocked by his few words casually.
It's just a direction, by the way, he's also a person who has detached himself from low-level interests, at least it's enough to be a literati.
However, if it spreads, tens of millions of primary and secondary school students in China are estimated to stab him as a villain.
……
"Shen Zhe, Shen Zhe ......"
While he was pondering, Shen Zhe was awakened and looked up to find that it was Han Qigong who called him.
"Ah, sorry, I'm distracted. ”
Han Qigong sighed: "Alas, what are you thinking about all day long, it is history and literature, and you are engaged in creation, a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west!"
"Mr. Han, I mainly create, and I usually like to think about things. ”
"You're still young, you can't sink in, spend twenty years exploring, maybe you're a top academic master, and no matter how many books you write, you're just a good author......"
Shen Zhe Bulen's head, twenty years is too long, and it takes twenty days to study.
Gui Jinglin disagreed: "You don't have to engage in academic works, good works are stronger!"
"It's true, if you want to influence others, you have to let people know first. "The old gentleman is slow.
Han Qigong smiled bitterly: "You have become a person all the way, and you have become a crooked way to engage in academics? Also, not many people are willing to read academic works." ”
Turned his head and asked Shen Zhe: "It's also good to engage in creation, do you have any new works?"
Shen Zhe shook his head slightly: "In the past few days, when I participated in the essay competition, where did I have so many thoughts about other things, Teacher Han looked down on me." ”
Han Qigong nodded in approval.
"Good works are tempered a lot, and it's not uncommon for an essay of a few hundred words to take three or five days. ”
Shen Zhe smiled secretly in his heart, it was someone else who had been tempered, he just needed to click on the keyboard.
"You want to pull him into the association, now that you know what I mean, what should I do, and return disappointed?" Gui Jinglin teased Han Qigong.
Han Qigong smiled and said, "Then you have to enter, how long can our old man live?" Shen Zhe, come with me, I'll take you to recognize the door first......
As he spoke, he got up and was about to pull Shen Zhe away.
"This is forced to buy and sell!" Gui Jinglin scolded with a smile, "Don't leave yet, your business is over, and I haven't said anything yet." ”
"What else do you have to do?" Han Qigong said.
Shen Zhe, who had just gotten up, also looked back.
Gui Jinglin picked up a few manuscripts from his side, looked at Shen Zhe and said: "Three manuscripts, "Free" aside, although the latter two have different content plots, they all use the same creative technique, am I right?"
"Teacher Han is right. Shen Zhe nodded, and Tiger used O. Henry's ending in "The Window".
"That's okay!" Gui Jinglin got up and walked over, "If you have time in the next few days, let's make up another article, make up three articles, and I'll publish them for you at once." ”
Tong Bailing said: "Jinglin, you are not satisfied, the three articles in your hand are not enough?"
"If it weren't for the fact that you couldn't get off the stage, why would I bother to get involved?" Gui Jinglin said dissatisfiedly, "Fortunately, the result is good, the old gentleman recommended Shen Zhe and wrote a few good articles." One article is called accidental, two articles are called inevitable, and three articles can be said to be style, and "Free" is not counted. ”
"What Jing Lin said makes sense, let's add another article. The old gentleman said.
"Okay, give me two days. Shen Zhe agreed, "Send it to your mailbox when the time comes." "The submission email is available on the official website of "Selected Journals".
Anyway, O. Henry wrote more than 300 novels in his lifetime, so he didn't have to worry about resources.
Seeing Shen Zhe's promise, Gui Jinglin raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you write a few more?"
Han Qigong scolded with a smile: "People's hearts are insufficient, you think that writing articles is the same as selling vegetables, it is better not to write in a hurry!"
Shen Zhe smiled and didn't speak.
Gui Jing Lin paused: "It's okay to have one article, Lao Han, you have been hiding in a small circle for the past few years, and you don't know what happened in the literary world, right?"
"Eat and drink well, noisy, what else can happen?" Han Qigong said disdainfully.
Gui Jinglin couldn't cry or laugh: "Dare to love in your heart, we are this image, useless?"
"It's not much better!"
"Okay, I won't fight with you, just find someone to inquire......"
……
In fact, Shen Zhe's three articles participating in the essay competition had a greater impact than he thought.
The circle is very large, and the literary world is relatively small.
Shen Zhe knows that no industry can avoid various circles, and the people in the circle recognize each other, so it is better to take the initiative to integrate into it. Even if you can't be good friends, don't make too many enemies and make yourself unhappy.
O. Henry's short stories are a stepping stone to the literary world.
Huaxia Academy
It's a special school, and the atmosphere is not like a campus, but like a real-life forum.
I remember someone saying that if you can't do anything, then you can try to be a writer. With this kind of thinking, there are many people who start writing halfway into the industry, and such authors often have no creative theory guidance, only with enthusiasm.
It may be okay at first, but you need to know some theories as you write.
There are also best-selling authors who want to really enter the literary world, and they need to communicate with their peers at a similar level of theory.
At this time, you can apply for admission to this college.
There are also advanced classes, where certain authors and critics from academic backgrounds also come.
In the college, there are senior theoretical professors who teach in person, and there are also academic authors who are good teachers, and learning and communication are carried out at the same time.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, a man in his thirties walked into the classroom.
Don't worry if you're late or not, the atmosphere in the room is relaxed, what is being discussed, and when you see the man coming in, someone says hello and continues to discuss.
Xia Ran stood on the podium, listening to them with a smile and not stopping them.
Ten minutes later, an author slapped his face and said loudly: "Okay, Mr. Xia has been here for a while, let's hear what he has to say first." ”
Xia Ran smiled and said, "I heard it, you are all paying attention to this essay collection?"
The authors who participated in the training spoke one after another.
"Yes, that little champion took 1.5 million from three short articles, and I can't pay attention to it if I want to......"
"The masters of the literary world are not involved, otherwise it may not be. ”
"After reading the article, I found that I couldn't do it, but if all the masters participated, it would be good if he could win it once. ”
"Picked up a cheap ......"
Xia Ran listened for a while, stretched out his hand and pressed it, and the classroom fell silent.
Because some students are older than him, they can't talk too much, and the usual class is usually in the form of discussion.
"You still don't understand that those three short essays are not as simple as they seem. ”
"What Mr. Xia is referring to, let's talk about it specifically. ”
Xia Ran nodded and said: "The first article "Free" is better than creativity, everyone should understand, so I won't say more." ”
Indeed, there is nothing reflected in language and writing, but the average author can't think of it. "There have already been authors who have tried theoretical analysis.
"How do I feel that the author is a woman?"
"Haha......"
Shirley Caesar's work, if Shen Zhe is forced to change his father's perspective, it will be wrong.
Xia Ran smiled and said: "Shen Zhe, you don't know and you should have heard of it, how can it be a woman, maybe you have a delicate mind, it's nothing." ”
"I have done this too, laughing and laughing. ”
Xia Ran said "um" and said, "The focus is on the last two articles, and we should focus on interpretation." In fact, especially the last "Window", when it arrived at the essay office, Chairman Tong, who has profound appreciation skills, has already made a wonderful comment. ”
The authors are a little envious, this information has been circulated to the outside world for some time, and the circle has known it for a long time.
"Chairman Tong said three points from the aspect of dialectical art, namely, the knowledge of the micro, the virtual and the real, and the comparison ......of positive and negative."
Xia Ran said Tong Bailing's comments, and there was a commotion below.
"Chairman Tong is amazing, you can grasp the essence just by watching it once!" someone said with admiration.
"When will Chairman Tong come to the next class?"
Xia Ran frowned imperceptibly and shook his head slightly, Tong Bailing hated sycophancy, saying these words to his face, it was certain that he would be dumped.
"As the chairman of this essay boy said, what we need to focus on is "The Gift of the Magi" ......"
One author said: "He is good at the style of youth romance, and he published a similar book last year, when he was still in high school. ”
"Those Years, it doesn't feel the same thing. ”
Xia Ran said: "Of course it's not the same thing, I've listened to a few seniors talk about it in the past few days, and I have already classified it into the category of art. ”
"What, art, isn't it an exaggeration?"
"Mr. Xia, let's talk about what aspects of its artistry are reflected, I just think the plot has a lot of changes. ”
If it is attributed to art, it must be a palace-level work, and in any industry, it is at the top level to have this evaluation. Art, calligraphy, architecture, sculpture, and even video games are beginning to be called the "ninth art".
It is every author's dream to create works of artistic quality.
A college student can easily do it in thousands of words?
"You've been discussing it for so long, and I've read all the explanations, so I'll tell you what I think. ”
Della only had one dollar and eight cents, but tomorrow was Christmas, and she didn't have enough money to buy a gift for her husband. Xia Ran turned on the portable computer, operated it a few times, and then read, "This is the beginning of the article, and the common technique we use when writing sets up suspense, and the reader will naturally think about what Della will do next, commonly known as digging a pit......"
"Haha......" The author laughed, this technique is too commonly used, and it is a creative weapon.
Xia Ran smiled: "Looking at it next, followed by another suspense: when Jim saw his wife with short hair, his expression was unnatural and a little lost. ”
Finally, there is the ending: after exchanging gifts, they find that they no longer need each other's gifts. ”
"Instead of taking it for granted, the husband must be moved by his wife's behavior, but instead arranged a more gratifying ending. ”
"After two suspenseful foreshadowings, the final tone of the pen has a 180-degree turn, but it is still reasonable, which requires strong creative pen power to do. Coupled with the cleverly conceived, well-integrated, and dramatic ending, it can only be amazing. ”
The author below is thoughtful.
When Xia Ran said this, they suddenly felt that the extraordinaryness of the article was no longer as simple as they were at the beginning.
I only heard Xia Ran continue: "Being moved is the sentiment that readers should have, we are all authors, and what we should learn is this technique." ”
"The suspense overlapping setting, and the unexpected ending, is the most important thing. ”
"Let's analyze it from the ideological and artistic point of view, after exchanging gifts, it is useless for the husband and wife, and at the same time they lose their original treasures, which is a tragedy, but they have gained each other's sincere feelings, and it is a comedy......
"There is comedy in tragedy, which is a higher art. ”
"Hehe, I heard that when Chairman Tong was soliciting essays, he already called it Shen's technique......"
The authors blew up.
"That's an exaggeration, but it sounds reasonable. ”
"Became famous in one fell swoop!"
……
It is normal for him to receive praise for the masterpieces of the world's three great short story masters.
In addition to the attention of the literary world, Shen Zhe's book fans and some lovers who pay attention to the essay also had a heated discussion.
"Free" was unanimously moved by the mother, and discussed the way of learning home education.
"The Gift of the Magi" has been praised by the majority of literary girls and young women, and sentimental people have the idea of having long hair.
"Window" is more of a whiplash, revealing the dark side of human nature, which is also quite emotional.
……
Next to the Xiangshan Hotel, there is a small three-story building with exquisite floors.
"This is the Ancient Literature Association, and it is also possible to call it the Literary Association. Han Qigong said, and Shen Zhe followed behind him.
It's already in the middle of the park.
"If you can read it, it means that you have a hobby," Han Qigong smiled and walked inside, "You have to come in with just one article, but the association is full of elderly people like me, and it is inconvenient to travel, so I won't call to greet you, and we will do it together at the next party." ”
In the hall, Shen Zhe saw all kinds of works hanging on the walls around him, most of which were calligraphy.
"Some are original, some are modern calligraphy works, and the poems are small paths, so I don't want you to write them, so I can't write them down. ”
"Initiation ceremony?" Shen Zhe couldn't help but laugh.
A person came in from outside the door, and it was the old man who caught him doing bad things, "If you come, you have to leave something!"
"Call Mr. Wei, retire now and manage here. ”
"Hello Mr. Wei," Shen Zhe said hello, and then asked with a smile: "I will come to Xiangshan, do I don't need to buy a ticket?"
"Haha, then I have to ask the old guy if he agrees. ”
Pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are readily available, and after Shen Zhe finished writing, Han Qigong didn't wait for the ink to dry, picked it up gently, and smacked his lips: "When did you start practicing this calligraphy?"
"I started when I was a child, I didn't practice much, and I wrote a few times a day. ”
"It's no wonder that after three or five years, it has begun to take shape in ten years, and you have practiced for more than ten years, and it is normal to have this achievement. However, if you want to become everyone, you can't stop writing. ”
Shen Zhe nodded yes. (To be continued.) )
