Chapter 117: The Rising Poets

Gewen took Gu Cheng home naturally made Lin Yiming a little puzzled at first, but when Lin Yiming knew that the handsome and somewhat shy person in front of him turned out to be Gu Cheng, he suddenly burst out with great enthusiasm with a dream of being a writer, serving tea and pouring water, looking for luggage, and being attentive, even Gewen was a little blushing, when he first came, Lin Yiming had never been so enthusiastic.

After waiting for Gu Cheng's humility several times, Lin Yiming finally returned to a little normal, and then sat on the sofa in the living room with Gewen, Gu Cheng and others, and said excitedly to Gu Cheng: "Originally, I was going to listen to your lecture this evening, but I didn't do it temporarily, and I still have some regrets in my heart, I didn't expect Gewen to bring you home, this is really good!" ”

Gu Cheng held a cup of hot tea in his hand, first looked at Gowen who was sitting on the side smiling, and after seeing that Gowen was such an exaggerated look, he turned his head to look at Lin Yiming, who was a little scared by his enthusiasm, and said gently: "Actually, compared to a poet like Gowen, I am just a poetry lover." ”

"Him?" Lin Yiming glanced at Govin with slanted eyes, then turned his head and waved his hand, as if to fan off Govine's impression, and that disdainful action made Govine's teeth itch extraordinarily.

"Govyn is far from it, if he hadn't gone shit luck and somehow came out with a word, what kind of poet would he be!" In Lin Yiming's impression, Govin is indeed very diligent and hardworking, saying that Govin is a writer and a thinker, he admitted; Talk about how good the novels, essays, and reviews written by Gowen are. Well, he also admits it; But saying that Gowen is a poet, Lin Yiming can't agree - Gowen is a poet? Ha ha......

I think when Govin wrote "One Generation". He's on the spot. "One Generation" is just the product of Gowen's emotions surging after hearing Mr. Ba Jin's self-statement, and the real investigation is just a sentence that came out of nowhere. If it weren't for the fact that Ba Jin was attracted by the mood and ideas in Gowen's sentence, and if he hadn't recommended to Ba Jin that this sentence, which is considered a poem, be published in Harvest magazine, where would there be any "Generation"?

What's more, Govin never wrote any poems at all after that, and he also wanted Govin to write a few poems several times, but every time Govin pushed back and said that he was busy. Or just something: I finally found / an ant / another ant / a swarm of ants / and maybe more under a tree...... Fool yourself with that stuff.

In Gowen's tune, can he be a poet? The devil believes it! At best, he's going to pretend to be a ghost and talk about ambiguous opinions.

Lin Yiming didn't believe Gu Cheng's words at all, and his eyes when he looked back at Gowen were full of disdain. It's a pity that he didn't know the poem that Gowen recited in the lecture hall of Fudan University at night. It's a pity that he didn't see the manuscript papers full of poems on the desk in Ba Jin's house.

"Uh......" Gu Cheng was a little confused by Lin Yiming's words. And Gowen was also defeated by Lin Yiming, a guy full of prejudice, and he really didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Next, Lin Yiming began to torture Gu Cheng, what is hazy poetry, how can I better create hazy poetry, and so on, and asked Gu Cheng in no detail. Fortunately, Gu Cheng was not impatient with this, this was originally something he loved. Naturally, the communication between the two of them was hot.

The only hard work is even Govyn. He had already heard Gu Cheng talk about these things in the lecture hall, and now he had to listen to them again, which really gave him a headache. However, in the process of listening, Govern also noticed that when Gu Cheng and Lin Yiming exchanged their experience in creating hazy poems, they had begun to integrate their own views in the speech, and no longer limited hazy poems to expressing personal feelings, which made Gowen's heart full of a sense of accomplishment.

Finally, after the two of them discussed for a long time, Govin finally breathed a sigh of relief. For Gu Cheng, he also had a lot of questions he wanted to ask. It's just that Gu Cheng himself was occupied by Lin Yiming. He was helpless. Seeing that the two stopped discussing at this moment, Lin Yiming fell into thought, and Gowen hurriedly interjected-

"Gu Cheng, I heard you say that many hazy poems can no longer be published in public journals, what is the reason for this?" Since he is engaged in the work of editor, which is related to literature, Govin naturally pays attention to the trend of poetry in his daily life, and in his opinion, the number of hazy poems published in various journals is very large, but why is it that many poets' works cannot be published according to Gu Cheng? Especially when I was eating in a restaurant before, many of the works of Beijing poets recited by Gu Cheng were very good, and it was impossible for them to be published without newspapers and magazines.

When Gu Cheng heard Gowen's question, he first smiled bitterly, and then said: "Although hazy poetry has more and more readers now, it is indeed published very little in public journals. As you said in your speech, hazy poetry is too focused on the praise of individual life and heart, so many poems that pursue freedom and liberation are not published in newspapers and magazines. I once heard a poet friend say that a leader in the literary and artistic circles characterized our poetry as 'deviating from the direction of socialist literature and art', and with such a high hat, many poems can only circulate underground......

As Gu Cheng told the hazy poems he knew and the predicament of the hazy poems one by one, a depressed feeling also arose in Gowen's heart. Don't look at hazy poetry so popular and glamorous, but there are so many hardships and difficulties in the background, which really surprised Govyn.

For a moment, the three people in the living room fell silent.

After a long time, Govin let out a long breath and said, "This is the case...... Gu Cheng, in fact, your creative concept is just a little too extreme, but it is not suitable for promotion to those poetry lovers, and the concept itself is not wrong......"

Speaking of this, Gowen looked at Gu Cheng and said seriously: "However, the situation you said will definitely change!" No matter what kind of poetry expresses the author's true feelings, as long as it can reach the level of publication, it will one day appear in various publications! I'm sure of that! ”

Gu Cheng was stunned for a moment, "Also those poems that pursue spiritual liberation and soul freedom?" ”

"Yes, including!"

Gowen replied categorically, but Gu Cheng shook his head disapprenorantly, Gowen was comforting him, the words that Gowen said in his ear at today's lecture made him fully understand the fundamental reason why many poems could not be released publicly.

Looking at Gu Cheng's noncommittal appearance, Gowen didn't defend anymore, some things can only be convincing if they really happen, and verbal words are not convincing at all.

So far, there has been no word for the night.

The next morning, Govin still got up early as usual, and then played a set of Tai Chi racks in the courtyard, and then walked out of the courtyard gate and slowly ran towards Ba Jin's house. As for Gu Cheng, the three of them had already discussed that Lin Yiming would be in charge of the reception last night.

When he arrived at Barkin's house, Govin greeted Barkin, as usual, and refilled his teacup with hot tea, then sat back down at his desk, and then pulled a few pieces of manuscript paper out of his trouser pocket.

These manuscript papers are all poems, which are the poems that Gu Cheng recited during dinner last night. Before going to bed last night, Gowen asked Gu Cheng to record those poems, saying that he wanted to see them.

Gu Cheng's words on the manuscript paper are very artistic, the lines are soft but not weak, giving people a sense of agility, from this font you can see that Gu Cheng pays attention to emotion, and the emotions are rich and delicate and sensitive. But this was not the focus of Govyn's attention, he only focused on the five or six poems on the manuscript paper.

The popularity of hazy poetry has benefited from the poetry lovers everywhere in this era, which has created a large number of hazy poetry poets, although these hazy poetry poets are good and bad, but there are many poets with outstanding talents, although they cannot be published publicly in journals, but they can be passed on by word of mouth in the mouths of readers, which work is not a masterpiece? For example, these poems on manuscript paper.

Govin silently read these poems in his heart, savoring the artistic conception and feelings of these poems. When he was almost memorizing these poems, he took out the poems he had written in his translation of Walden from the drawer of his desk and put them together.

Then Govin spread out the new manuscript paper, picked up the pen and thought for a moment, and then wrote on the blank manuscript paper.

I solemnly ask poets and critics to remember 1983, just as sociologists should be asked to remember the emancipation of the mind in 1979. This year is an important period of exploration and artistic differentiation of China's new poetry. The poetry world has broken the monotonous and stable unification situation since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and there has been a trend of coexistence of various styles and genres.

In this year, the new poetry trend with strong modernist literary characteristics officially appeared in the Chinese poetry circle, promoting the new poetry to take a rising step in art, thus marking a new beginning of the all-round growth of Chinese poetry.
