Chapter 115: Surrender
"W-have you thought about these?" Gowen's voice was very low and flat, but in Gu Cheng's ears, it was like a slap in the face, and the sky was dark for a while.
As a poet who simply pursues the real world of his heart, Gu Cheng has never thought about these problems mentioned by Gowen, and he has an unusually delicate and sensitive poetic feeling, which is related to his early experience of being sent to the countryside with his father. It was the idyllic life in the countryside that cast a layer of pure and beautiful color on his children's memory, which influenced his later poetry and style to a certain extent. Therefore, he has always looked at the world with childish eyes, so his poems have a fresh and lovely temperament, so fragile and stubborn to express his extremely naΓ―ve feelings, and he is called a "fairy tale poet". And it is this kind of childish poetic imagery that makes Gu Cheng ignore the world of personal accidents. Gu Cheng's personality is gentle and a little rustic, perhaps there is also a reason for this.
Therefore, Gowen's words just hit Gu Cheng's shortcomings and made Gu Cheng set off a huge wave in his heart. If Gowen's first reason was only to make him anxious and suspicious about the development of hazy poetry, then what Gowyn said in his ear caused a great shock and reflection in his heartββ
Yes, the origin of hazy poetry was set off by the index finger of a poet in the 70s, and his poem "Believe in the Future" has been recited repeatedly by countless young people who see this poem, and the question of "I don't believe it" in the poem has resonated with countless people. Later, the poets of hazy poetry also focused their feelings in writing poems on expressing their inner feelings and questioning the oppressive and rigid social system, which is why hazy poetry was only circulated among readers by word of mouth at the beginning. The reason why it has not been possible to publish in public journals is that hazy poetry is only one of the underground literary forms! With the emancipation of the mind in recent years, hazy poetry began to appear in literary journals. It has also won the love of most young people and has even become a trend.
However, as Govin said, if the way of creating hazy poetry is to rebel against the dominant discourse and to get rid of the restrictions of ideology, then it is likely that some extreme poets and readers will begin to believe in the pen and break the rules, and if this situation really occurs, it will be terrible! If there really is a radical youth who question everything and blindly pursue freedom and liberation. That wasn't what he intended.
β¦β¦
Gowyn's words that if he only focuses on the praise of his life and heart, and does not express things outside his own emotional world, his words will quickly decline have caused a wave in the crowd, and everyone at first thought that Gowen was a big fallacy in the world. You must know that the poetry of this period is a period when hazy poetry dominates the world, and it is not alarmist to say that hazy poetry will disappear soon?
But Govine's later words made most college students have to think, and then they followed Govine's reasoning and thought forward. The truth is exactly what Govin said. If hazy poetry were limited to the praise of individual life and soul, it would be a niche poetry, and decline would be an inevitable fact.
For a while, everyone was talking about it. No one wanted what Govyn was talking about, knowing that the people sitting in this lecture hall were lovers of hazy poetry.
Then these students who were in an uproar, and the students who were discussing with each other also noticed this special scene on the stage, Govin sat next to Gu Cheng and didn't know what to say, while Gu Cheng had a gloomy face and didn't say a word.
What are they talking about? Although all attention is on the decline of the hazy poem. However, there were still many people who watched the scene on the stage, and their hearts swelled with strong curiosity.
It's just that their curiosity is destined to go unanswered. The reason why Govin whispered to Gu Cheng that he was worried was that he didn't want the college students in the audience to hear it, and Gu Cheng couldn't tell anyone else about these extremely bold words.
After Gowen finished talking about the worries in his heart, he noticed that Gu Cheng's face was blue, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his body shook gently and irrepressibly, he realized that something was wrong, and thought of what he knew about Gu Cheng's situation in the future, and he couldn't help but have a worry in his heart - would Gu Cheng have a nervous breakdown because of this? You must know that Gu Cheng in his previous life committed suicide!
Govin himself is not a poet, nor does he have the sensitive and delicate emotions of a poet, so he naturally can't feel the huge hesitation and doubt in Gu Cheng's heart after listening to his words. When a person with a simple personality like a simple child and a mind full of innocent fantasies realizes the huge black hole of consciousness that his words may cause, the collapse of the belief in his heart and the negation of the ideal in his heart...... It is enough to be overwhelmed by one's own beliefs and have the idea of dying and martyrdom.
Of course, it is impossible for Gu Cheng to have suicidal thoughts, at this time, he has only been on the road of poetry creation for more than half a year, he is just impressed by Gowen's views, and he has a huge shake and doubt about the concept of hazy poetry that he has always accepted.
Gowen regretted what he said later, although he had experienced so many things, he still couldn't always maintain that indifferent mentality, and he would always show impatience and enthusiasm from time to time.
In any case, his original intention was just to get Gu Cheng to stop instilling that kind of unrealistic creative views in the students, rather than really hitting Gu Cheng.
Gewen gently patted Gu Cheng's shoulder and asked with some concern, "Gu Cheng, are you okay?" β
Seeing that Gu Cheng had not reacted, Govin grabbed Gu Cheng's calloused right hand a little anxiously, and then shook it gently. While shaking, he whispered: "Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng." β
"Huh? ......" Gu Cheng finally woke up from his own thought world, and then he noticed the concerned gaze of Govin in front of him.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little empty in my heart." Gu Cheng let out a long breath. Then barely a smiley face.
Ge Wen shook his head, a trace of regret flashed on his face, he looked at Gu Cheng and said earnestly, "What I just said was a bit excessive. Don't go to your heart...... Actually, your views are not wrong, but your views are too extreme to be propagated in public......"
After listening to Gowen's explanation, Gu Cheng smiled reluctantly, then nodded and said, "After listening to your words, it is true...... I'm just a little uncomfortable...... I'm fine. β
Gu Cheng's heart was empty and uncomfortable, and the concept of poetry creation that he had always adhered to was in danger of leading people astray. I used to promote my own opinions, hoping that more people would like poetry and poetry creation, but now I was suddenly told that my views were not suitable for promotion in public. It is difficult to accept who such a gap is for a while.
Seeing that Gu Cheng didn't seem to have a psychological shadow because of his words, Ge Wen couldn't help but let out a long breath in his heart.
In his previous life, Gowen liked Gu Cheng's poetry, and after coming to this era. His first fame relied on plagiarized Gu Cheng's "Generation". Although it was an unintentional move, there was a regret in his heart from then on. He already liked and loved Gu Cheng incomparably in his heart, and he felt guilty because of plagiarism, and this complex feeling made him full of good feelings for Gu Cheng.
Although he had silently apologized to Gu Cheng before talking to Gu Cheng just now, Govin had already secretly decided in his heart that he wanted to become a pair of real friends with Gu Cheng, he wanted to get along well with Gu Cheng, care about Gu Cheng's life, and stop Gu Cheng's suicide tragedy in the future. If Gu Cheng really had mental pressure and burden because of what he had just said. That really made Gowen ashamed of himself and Gu Cheng.
In the middle of the conversation between the two, the students who were discussing with each other in the audience finally couldn't help but express their opinions. Most of them had accepted Gowen's views on hazy poetry, but what Gowen said also reminded them of more things at the same time.
A classmate stood up and asked in a loud voice, "Gowen, you just said that if hazy poetry insists on the praise of one's life and heart, and does not express things outside the world of one's own feelings, it will quickly decline." If hazy poetry is concerned with the world outside of the individual, then what should it express? What should we focus on? It seems that there is no such hazy poem? β
This classmate's question expressed the doubts of everyone present, and made Govin stunned for a moment, and then he smiled.
In the previous stage of translating Walden, Govin was deeply impressed by the scenery described by Thoreau, the author of the book, and at the same time wrote several small poems reflecting pastoral life, but because his attention was always on the work of translation, he did not bother to publish these poems at that time. Hearing this classmate's question at this moment reminded him of one of the poems, which can also be regarded as a hazy poem.
"There are so many emotions that can be expressed in hazy poetry, and there are so many things in our time that we pay attention to...... As for the absence of such hazy poetry...... Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean it won't happen in the future. β
Govin looked at the questioning student with a smile and continued, "Okay, in that case, I'll take out a poem I wrote not long ago and give you an idea." β
As he spoke, Govin recalled the poem "Wheat Field" he had composed, and then recited lyrically:
Brothers all over the world
Hug in the wheat field
East, South, North and West
Four brothers in the wheat field, good brothers
Looking back
Recite their respective poems
Hug in the wheat field
Sometimes I sit alone
In the wheat field of dawn dreams brothers
I saw the pebbles of my hometown rolling all over the river beach
The sky is always curved at dusk
Let the earth be filled with villages of sorrow
Sometimes I sit alone in the wheat field and recite Chinese poems for my brothers
No eyes, no lips
β¦β¦
Before Gewen's poem was recited, the classmate who asked the question sat back in his seat, and everyone present, including Gu Cheng, who had been bitter beside Gowen, looked at Gewen who was reciting affectionately in surprise and was amazed.
There is a beauty and happiness, loneliness and loneliness in this song "Wheat Field". The poetic imagery of "village" and "wheat field" about the countryside has never appeared in the previous hazy poems, and the strong utopian ideals in the first half of the poem are full of yearning. In the second half of the verse, the poet's lonely and sad figure and blessed image are depicted as great and beautiful!
When Govin finished reciting his poem, there was no sound in the whole lecture hall, so everyone reminisced about this beautiful poem.
"Gowen. You are right, hazy poetry should not be limited to individuals, hazy poetry should have such a big climate! After a long time, Gu Cheng, who came to his senses first, sincerely looked at Ge Wen who was sitting beside him and sincerely admired.
The students who were awakened by Gu Cheng's voice also gave their applause, and the entire lecture hall echoed with enthusiastic and enthusiastic cheers.
I don't know how long it took for the applause to fade away, and everyone in the classroom began to discuss Gowen's poem enthusiastically.
But there was one man who didn'tβ
"Gowen. I remember that you said at the poetry symposium in your dormitory a few months ago: Now the momentum of the Chinese poetry movement has begun irreversibly? In the crowd, Li Hongbo suddenly stood up and asked loudly.
And when they saw some classmates asking questions, everyone also fell silent. Waiting for Gowen's answer.
Ge Wen returned his gaze to communicate with Gu Cheng, turned his head to look at Li Hongbo standing in the crowd, nodded and said, "Not bad." β
"We all know that the development of hazy poetry is really as you said a few months ago, it can be said that it is a blowout, all kinds of hazy poems have been published, and many poets have risen rapidly. But I want to ask you - when will this frenzy of poetry movement end? You just said that hazy poetry insists on the praise of one's life and heart, and does not express things outside the world of one's own feelings. It will decline very quickly. If hazy poetry also focuses on the world outside of the individual, how long will it last? β
As soon as Li Hongbo's question was raised, all the students in the audience were in high spirits, and they all focused their eyes on Gowen's body, and Gu Cheng couldn't help but get nervous, he had been intoxicated with his own thoughts and Gowen's poetry before, and he didn't have time to think about what Gowen said at the beginning, and at this moment he couldn't help but wake up when he heard Li Hongbo's question-
Not bad. As Govin said, with the development of society. The emancipation of the mind, one day, humanitarianism and the emancipation of individuality will become a very popular ideology, and everyone is accustomed to it. But at that time, people's spiritual and material lives must be quite rich, and will the hazy poetry or poetry still be loved by everyone as it is now?
This is another question that the students present associate with from Govine's words, and Gu Cheng, who is a professional poet, is naturally equally concerned.
Gowen was stunned, he didn't expect Li Hongbo to be able to think of such a question, looking at the expectant eyes of Li Hongbo in the audience, looking at the expectant eyes of other students, Gowen stood up from the chair gently.
"In our time, although the material life is poor, but after the turmoil of the decade, now everything in China is new, we can learn new knowledge and new experience unscrupulously, we can absorb the excellent knowledge and advanced experience of foreign countries, now China can be said to be the purest ideal country, everything has just begun, as long as we work hard as long as we learn! The whole world is like a canvas in front of us, on which we can cast brilliant colors...... This is a wonderful time, this is an era full of opportunities! β
Although Gowen's words were not exciting, and he did not deliberately encourage everyone, everyone present listened to Gowen's words and couldn't help but have a surging emotion in their chests.
"But such times will eventually pass, and our country will become stronger and stronger, and our people will become richer and richer. I believe that in the next 30 years, China will become a major power in the world and will stand tall in the east of the world! At that time, mass culture and modern media will become more and more developed, television, radio, newspapers, magazines, ...... There will be more and more new forms of entertainment, and more and more new media channels will emerge...... "Gowen's mind flashed through the Internet, the information age of the future.
"It will be an age of sophistication, a pragmatic age of calculation, an age of consumption, where mass culture, popular fiction, pop songs, and soap movies and television will continue to impact poetry, pure literature, and what we love and even go crazy for now...... At that time, not only poetry, but also pure literature will decline...... We are rich, we are prosperous. Maybe we'll never remember everything we've ever gone......"
Gawain's words made everyone present unbelievable, listening to Govine's words, could it be that in that era, poetry was really destined to die?!
"But isn't there still me, and isn't there still us?" Govyn took a deep breathβ
"Poetry is unique to every nation, and through it you can see in what way your nation is caring for all mankind! Through poetry, we can see the vitality of an ancient nation and the potential of the future! Since poetry is so important, why don't we let poetry float forever in the sky of contemporary China through our own efforts and actions? β
"Man is supposed to dwell poetically on the earth!"
