It took two days for Govin to get an outline that he was happy with. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Then Govin began his own work.

Jia Pingwa's novel is called "The Waste Capital", but Govin can't also name his novel "The Waste Capital".

Jia Pingwa writes about the waste of the capital, the waste of the road, the waste of the house, the waste of people, the writing of the historical transition period, the cultural idlers in the process of losing the land culture and becoming citizens, by the suppression of modern life, suffocation by culture, burdened by fame and fortune, the bitterness of not being understood, etc., is to write about the alienation of people, the alienation of society, the alienation of culture, the animalization of people, the humanization of animals, the decadence of the novel is pervasive, giving people a feeling of sadness and despair.

Although Gowen's novel also has to write about the alienation of people, the alienation of society, the alienation of culture, the animalization of people, and the humanization of animals, it still retains the truth, purity, ideals and aspirations, and can write about hard work and struggle, so if the title of the novel is "Waste Capital", it is not close to the topic.

He has already decided on the name of the novel, which is "Living Elsewhere".

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of the words "living elsewhere" is the title of a novel by the Czech novelist Milan Kundera, or a resounding slogan by the French poet Rimbaud.

The phrase "live elsewhere" is a beautiful, life-filled sentence in itself. So Rimbaud used it as a verse, and Milan Kundera used it as the title of the novel.

Govin titled his new book, "Living Elsewhere," partly because it fits the novel's theme.

Jia Pingwa's "Waste Capital" is written in the 80s, but as a time-traveler, Gewen knows that the social phenomena written in the novel do not match the social situation at this time. Jia Pingwaming is written in the 80s, but in fact, it is written in the early 90s when the city had begun to become a philistine, and the innocence and simplicity finally disappeared. It is a reflection of the changes of an era.

According to Gowen's idea, he will also write like this, and he will also put the story in the 80s. However, his intention is to take this story about Zhuang Zhidie as a warning prophecy, and use the novel to gain insight into the various situations of life that will inevitably appear when the planned economy is transformed into a market economy in the early 90s.

Excellent works tend to have insight into people's hearts, often refract social reality, and even predict the future. Govyn hopes that his novel will be able to do just that, which is the ambition of a creator.

Since the 80s have not yet appeared in the various landscapes of the novel, it is naturally a state and life elsewhere. The title "Living Elsewhere" is apt.

On the other hand, Govin hopes that when future Chinese people see the phrase "living elsewhere", the first thing that comes to mind is his own novel.

Govin loves to create, loves to write, and has his own ambitions and expectations.

On the blank sheet of paper, there were well-thought-out words written -

……

At noon on the seventh day of the sixth month of the ancient calendar, the sun was still shining in red halls, and the advantage of the sun was that the sun was shining while people forgot that the sun was still shining, so no one in this city went to the sky to see it.

The situation on the street is still the same as before. There are levels of sleeping cars. There is no level, but there is money, so I don't want to squeeze the bus, and I shake the ticket to take a taxi. However, there were some important people here, several police cars escorted the road, and the sharp sirens roared loudly, and all the sleeping cars, taxis, and buses had to pull over and slow down, disrupting the rhythm of the long river of bicycles.

Only the hiker only walks, you step on my shadow, I step on his shadow, and the shadow is not painful. Suddenly, the color of the shadow changed from dark to light, and the lighter and shorter it became, and it disappeared completely in an instant. There is no shadow to drag the person, it seems that the person is not a person, and he touches the back of his buttocks with his hand, and he feels a puzzled face.

Someone would occasionally glance at the sky and immediately exclaim, "There are four suns in the sky!" The people all raised their heads and looked up at the sky, and indeed there were four suns in the sky.

The four suns are of average size, and it is impossible to distinguish between the old and the new, and they are gathered together to form a T-shape. In the past, there were lunar wanes and solar eclipses in the sky, but at the same time, there were four suns that did not meet, thinking that the eyes were wrong; If you look at the sky again, the sun will no longer be red, it will be white, as white as welding light, and it will be as white as what? Nothing can be seen, the perfect dark man cannot see anything, and the perfect light man cannot see anything?

Vehicles of all sizes no longer dare to start, only honking their horns, but people are struggling around, and in a trance, they even feel that they are no longer on the street, they are watching a movie, right? The projector suddenly malfunctions, the image on the screen disappears, and the sound is still on.

One person felt this way, and almost all the people felt this way, so it fell silent, and it was so quiet that it was lifeless, only the sound of someone blowing on the city wall was about to blow again at the end, but it didn't blow, it was the strength that ran out, like the wind hitting the corner of the wall, turned around, and disappeared.

The people seemed to look down on the person who blew the whistle, laughed, and suddenly woke up to the reality around them, and at the same time were frightened by the silence, and screamed, and fell mad everywhere.

This weirdness lasted for nearly half an hour, and the sun in the sky returned to one.

When people's eyes gradually saw that there was their own shadow on the ground, they all looked at each other, and then they were embarrassed and embarrassed, and they scattered in a panic. For a while, people were like ants, but the police directing the traffic were gone.

On the safe island, it was an old man sitting alone. The old man had a dirty face, but he had a pair of extremely long eyebrows and eyes, and looked coldly at the busyness of people. This look made everyone a little unbearable, and finally became angry, so they called the police? Where are the police?

The policeman surnamed Su put on a hard-shelled hat on his head as he ran, and scolded Hanako: "Pi!" pi!” It is the most vulgar vernacular in Tokyo to scold "roll".

When the old man heard this, he took his finger and wrote on the safe island, but it was a very elegant ancient word: avoid, so he laughed slowly.

With the laughter was a large piece, because when the old man walked down the safety island, he revealed that the clothes on his body were made of pennants worshiped by the pilgrims of the Pregnant Huang Temple. The front heart is printed with the word "have a request", the legs are forked, the crotch is a rough stitch all the way to the waist, the left side of the butt is a "must" word, the right side is a "should" word, the old man is not ashamed, but the mouth is a chapter; I told a rumor.

This rumor later spread throughout the city, and the phrase was: One type of person is a public servant, who enjoys good fortune on high above. The second type of people are "official downfalls", speculation is insured, and the third type of people engage in contracting, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are all reimbursed. Four types of people come to rent, sit at home and take profits. Five types of large caps, eating the plaintiff and eating the defendant. Six types of people have scalpels and red paper bags around their waists. Seven types of people become actors, and they make money by twisting their butts. Eight types of people engage in propaganda and satisfy their cravings every once in a while. Nine types of people are teachers, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas are not complete. Ten types of people are the masters, and they learn from Lei Feng honestly.

After this rumor spread, some people analyzed that the old man was not a beggar, or that he was at least a teacher, because only teachers could make up such rumors, and the rumors blamed the previous types of people, except for the teacher class. But who the old man is, no one will find out.

……

Like Jia Pingwa's "Waste Capital", Govyn's opening chapter of "Living Elsewhere" also paints a picture of social life that is confused and turbulent.

The mysterious "strange things" in the city of Tokyo lead to the passage of picking up the tattered old man, followed by the noisy scenes of qigong performances, fortune telling, and business for the whole people all over the streets and alleys, interspersed with high-level intellectual Meng Yunfang cheating with a monk nun, and unemployed homeless Zhou Min eloping with someone else's wife, and then through these two characters, the main task of the book - the actions of the "four cultural celebrities" led by the writer Zhuang Zhidie.

In Gowen's impression, it was in the 90s that with the transformation of the planned economy to the market economy and the implementation of the policy of retreating from the country and advancing the people, China's national values began to be unbalanced. At that time, the concepts of money worship, advanced consumption, and game life in society swelled sharply, erotic service and superstitious activities made a comeback, and corruption, counterfeiting and shoddy practices became increasingly rampant.

And it is the gradual deterioration of the social atmosphere in the 90s that made the original simplicity, simplicity and romance of the 80s disappear without a trace, which makes future generations sigh.

For some reason, writing and writing, Govin actually felt very breathless in his heart, thinking of the situation in the future, this large plot was extremely happy and vivid, and the writing was very vibrant.

This chapter is on Friday.

I was busy sorting out the information at night, and it was already late when I coded the words.

In addition, this chapter quotes a passage from Mr. Jia Pingwa's original text of "The Waste Capital", which is to pave the way for the later plot and must be written. There are no references after that.

You can also take a look at Mr. Jia Pingwa's skills, that smooth slip is still in the present! (To be continued.) )
