Chapter 350: The Island Country's "Mourning"!

"In the past day or so, "Billie-Jean" has become the most popular video on YouTube in recent times. On the plane, Ye Yu explained to Xiao Lori, "I don't show up very often, and face-to-face communication with fans is basically nothing."

I don't have a handful of autographed books.

But this trip to the island country is an opportunity, because there are indeed arrangements such as signing meetings, and many people have learned about it.

Then, some Westerners who had nothing to do after eating came to the island country. ”

"All of them are from the United States?" Little Lori was surprised.

"It's not. United States, Germany, France, United Kingdom...... A lot of countries. Mostly Western countries. Ye Yu said.

"They're crazy chasing stars!" Little Lori stuck out her tongue and felt a little incredible.

"When the material life is abundant, the spiritual needs will be greater." Ye Yu smiled and said.

Fans can really be pretty crazy.

In his previous life, after MJ's death, several fans couldn't bear the blow and chose to commit suicide and follow......

Ye Yu pondered for a moment and continued: "Besides, the people of the United States are better, but what about Germany, France, etc.? If I go to those countries, I don't know how many years from now. There are so many countries in the world that I can't go to them all. At least, not for a few years.

Just like in the finals of the King Championship a few days ago, the audience who came was not all from Xianshui City. There are all over the country, and even some very southern. For some Westerners, a trip to an island country is just that.

Perhaps, there is also some curiosity in this. ”

Ye Yu spread his hands and said with a smile: "They want to see how many hands, feet, and heads I have." ”

"Then shouldn't there be anyone in our Huaxia?" Little Lori asked curiously.

"I guess there is. However, those people did not mention it just now, after all, they learned about it from foreign websites such as YouTube and Twitter. Ye Yu sighed. "It seems that when we come back from the island country, we will have to hold a signing party." With my current reputation, there are only a few autographed books, which is really unreasonable. ”

"It's no wonder you, big brother! Big brother, there's no need to hold a book signing when you have free time at first. When it is necessary for you to hold a book signing, there will be more things to do, and there will be no time. Seeing this, little Lori hurriedly comforted.

"Why don't you wait until you get off the plane and let the company release the news first?" He Ru suggested.

"Well, that's fine." Ye Yu nodded and said, "It's not enough to be in our Xianshui City. It is necessary to hold a few more events across the country. The first one is scheduled for our Xianshui City. The second was in Shenhai City, Jiangnan. The third game was in ......"

Ye Yu reported some city names, thought about it, and said, "By the way, the time schedule should be more relaxed." In addition to book signings, I also stop by to take a look around. Especially the second one in Deep Sea City, I also have to go to Dynasty Entertainment, and there should be some cooperation at that time, and the time schedule will be a little longer. ”

Ye Yu said. He Ru wrote it down.

When she arrives in the island country, she will arrange it. Yuye Company will also post the corresponding notice.

Of course, although Yuye Company posted a notice, there are still some fans chasing after the island country, in their words - anyway, they still have to go to other cities, it is better to take advantage of the fact that it is March, and go to the island country to see the cherry blossom awards.

This. Ye Yu couldn't do anything.

After all, there are so many places in Huaxia, it is impossible for him to hold a signing party in every place, right?

……

In the modern world, the city of Kansui is not far from Tokyo, almost three hours away by plane.

Because Ye Yu and his party came in a low-key manner. There was no fanfare, so there was no fan pick-up when I got off the plane.

Seeing this situation, Ye Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The culture of the island country is deeply influenced by Chinese culture, but in the long historical development, it has also formed many traditional cultural and aesthetic concepts of its own.

One of them is not only deeply immersed in the literature of the island country, but also dominates many aspects of the spiritual life of the island people - "material mourning".

On the basis of "truth", the special character of "mourning" is generated by self-reliance, and then this romantic "object mourning" is formed.

"Mourning of things", simply put, is "the expression of true feelings", which refers to the emotions that naturally spring out when the human heart touches the scene and feels the external world.

"Mourning" includes, but is not limited to, mourning.

It contains many emotions such as appreciation, dearity, affection, pity, sympathy, sympathy, sadness, pity, magnificence, emotion, disappointment, and so on.

In The Tale of Genji, "Monogatari" is divided into three levels: the first layer is the emotion of people, with the sorrow of the love between men and women being the most prominent; The second layer is the touching of the world, which runs through the aria of human feelings and the world, including the world's major events; The third layer is contemplative, which is the emotion of natural objects, especially the sense of impermanence brought about by the seasons, that is, the heart of natural beauty.

There is no doubt that this kind of emotion is also present in traditional Chinese culture, but in the island country, this emotion has evolved to the extreme.

In addition, "mourning" is also lighter than sorrow.

"Mourning" is tranquil to the point of "silence", "idleness" and even "emptiness".

The sense of emptiness in Yasunari Kawabata's work is a very obvious manifestation of this.

The poetry of the island country is mostly tanka, the music melody of the island country is monotonous, the dance movements of the island country are slow, the paintings of the island country rarely pursue strong colors, the people of the island country pursue the beauty of the moment, and even the national anthem of the island country sounds like mournful music...... In fact, these are the embodiment of the "mourning" complex of the island people.

The sense of impermanence and the beauty of impermanence are the essence of the "beauty of things" of the people of the island country.

To be honest, the relationship between the island nation and China is indeed very complicated.

In this world, the country that can best understand and appreciate Chinese culture is the island country, and the country that can best understand and appreciate the culture of the island country is China, but because of history, the relationship between the two countries is really not very good.

But no matter what, at the end of winter and the beginning of spring, when he came to such a country permeated with "the beauty of things", when he personally stepped on this land, Ye Yu would always unconsciously recall the works of Yasunari Kawabata, and was deeply infected by the mood of idleness to nothingness in the book.

Although he is still a star, in his bones, he regards himself more as a writer.

He hopes that this trip to the island country will come quietly and leave quietly.

On March 1, 2016 in the Gregorian calendar, Ye Yu set foot on the land of the island country for the first time, and left a literary masterpiece here, which has been passed down forever as a representative work of the island country's "mourning and beauty".
