At the beginning of July, Lin Zixuan was elected as the vice chairman of the Beijing Writers Association. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Novels
The Beijing Writers Association plans to hold the "Ten Years Symposium on Lin Zixuan's Works", inviting writers and literary theorists in Beijing to discuss and evaluate the novels and film and television works created by Lin Zixuan in the past ten years.
The Beijing Writers' Association adopts a council system.
There is a chairman, seven vice-chairmen, a secretary-general, and a number of professional writers and contract producers in residence.
Resident professional writers are tenured, and regardless of whether they continue to work or not, they can receive a salary from the writers' association, which is equivalent to that of a civil servant.
Contract makers are a new thing, and they have been practiced since '86.
During the contract period, the writer receives basic living expenses from the writers' association, and at the same time, he must publish no less than 150,000 words of literary works in literary journals at or above the provincial or municipal level every year.
Contract producers are also divided into resident, full-time, part-time, and temporary positions.
Lin Zixuan belongs to the writer-in-residence, but it is not a tenure system, he did not catch up with the good times, and now the Writers Association has canceled the tenure system.
Unlike the contract system, he does not have hard writing tasks and is relatively free.
Lin Zixuan joined the Beijing Writers' Association in 96, and with his reputation in the domestic literary circle, he could have already made a half-official position, but there are so many positions above, unless someone retreats, it will be his turn.
The phenomenon of seniority ranking in China is quite common, and you can only slowly boil up your seniority.
This year, one of the vice chairmen of the Beijing Writers' Association Council happened to be hospitalized with illness, and it is estimated that there is no hope of being discharged from the hospital in a few years.
Lin Zixuan went to the hospital to visit the vice chairman, and now he should be the former vice chairman.
Since you have taken the position of someone else, even if you don't usually have any contact, you have to show respect for your predecessors at this time.
Becoming the vice chairman of the Beijing Writers' Association is only a small step upward, and the entire system of the Writers' Association is extremely huge.
Writers' associations in various places are branches of the Chinese Writers' Association.
The Chinese Writers Association has a chairman, 14 vice chairmen, and 30 members of the presidium, and these 45 people constitute the highest authority of the Chinese Writers Association.
Lin Zixuan is now the vice chairman of the Beijing Writers Association.
His way to promotion is the chairman of the Beijing Writers Association, a member of the presidium of the Chinese Writers Association, and entered the list of 30 people.
Next, I had the opportunity to compete for the position of vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, and finally became the chairman of the Chinese Writers Association.
According to the promotion every five years, it will take 20 years to have the opportunity to become the leader of the Writers' Association.
It also depends on whether there are opportunities.
Just like this time, if it weren't for the hospitalization of the vice chairman, he would have to wait another two or three years.
With Mu Zhiyuan's connections in the cultural sector, Lin Zixuan has a great chance of becoming the chairman of the Chinese Writers Association after the age of 50, but he is not enthusiastic about this position, which is too time-consuming and energy-consuming.
As long as he can mix in to the level of a member of the presidium and have the right to speak.
Most of the members of the presidium of the Chinese Writers Association are well-known writers in China, and some are writers from ethnic minorities, who may not be very well-known, but they represent the diversity of Chinese literature.
The members of the Presidium participate in the daily affairs of the Association and have the right to vote on various motions.
They have the right to make suggestions on literature and art to the relevant departments of the State.
At the congress of the National Writers' Association, the members of the presidium can communicate directly with the leaders of the country, and this is the right to speak.
Lin Zixuan felt that he was very lucky to be able to enter the list of 30 members of the presidium of the Chinese Writers Association before the age of 40.
At this time, the Beijing Writers Association elected Lin Zixuan as the vice chairman of the board of directors and held the "Ten Years Seminar on Lin Zixuan's Works", which has a lot to do with the filming of the sequel to "Desire".
The sequel to "Desire" has been attracting much attention from the news to the present, and the popularity has not decreased.
In the past ten years, the face of Chinese society has changed greatly, people's ideas have become more and more open, and there are too many topics to talk about.
Lin Zixuan's works just span the entire decade, and they coincide with the exhibition of the times, which is very representative.
"The Recalcitrant Master" and "Longing" in the 90s, the former shows the confusion and confusion of young people in society in the early days of reform and opening up, and the latter is a kind of review and expectation of the 80s.
At that time, "The Stubborn Master" was criticized by the society as soon as it was released, and traditional writers criticized it.
Some writers even accused "The Stubborn Master" of being a reactionary novel at the Writers' Association Conference.
Ten years have passed, and now, everything seems so ridiculous, it can only be said that everyone's thinking has not been opened up in that era.
The subsequent "Alien Girl", "The Story of the Editorial Department", "Beijing People in New York", "Addicted" and so on, each TV series is a reflection of the Times Exhibition at that time.
Connecting these film and television dramas together is a history of the 90s.
"Alive" and "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" are reflections on history and depict the suffering of working people with heavy brushstrokes.
The influence of these two novels abroad is not small, and no literary theorist has conducted systematic research in China.
As for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure" are not the focus of this seminar, these two novels are slightly offbeat.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has the foundation of traditional culture and a detailed explanation of Taoist culture, but martial arts novels have always been difficult to reach the elegant hall, and traditional writers are quite repulsive to this.
"Xiaoxue's Great Adventure" is a domestic fairy tale, but the story is set in the West, or the magical world.
This is not easy to discuss, this fairy tale novel is a bestseller at home and abroad, and is sought after by readers, perhaps we can talk about the topic of how literary works go abroad.
The symposium is expected to take place over a period of one week and will focus on how literary works reflect the times.
The Beijing Writers Association is obviously suspected of gaining popularity, and uses the influence of the sequel to "Desire" to attract media attention.
They also want to establish a cooperative relationship with Lin Zixuan.
The Beijing Writers' Association is not only responsible for salaries, but also organizes various literary activities, promotes the prosperity and exhibition of literary creation in the Beijing area, supports new literary talents, and strengthens the construction of spiritual civilization.
Lin Zixuan, as the first part of the writers to get rich, is also the boss of a film and television company.
There are conditions to help other writers in the capital area, especially in the adaptation of novels into film and television dramas.
Lin Zixuan has no opinion on this, since he is the vice chairman of the Writers' Association, he has to do something practical and get a good reputation.
The seminar was held at the Jingfeng Hotel in the Fengtai district of Beijing, where meetings of government departments are often held.
Lin Zixuan and the chairman of the Beijing Writers Association walked into the conference room of the hotel together, and there was warm applause in the conference room, and it took ten years for him to be criticized by the writers at the beginning and now to be accepted.
He saw an old man sitting in the conference room, and hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands and say hello.
This person is Zhou Tianya, the former editor-in-chief of "Beijing Literature", and "The Stubborn Master" was able to be expressed under Zhou Tianya's strong recommendation.
This is the grace of knowing. (To be continued.) )
