"Brother Zelai, I heard that a few of your classmates are working as reporters in the newspaper office here in the capital?"
Xiao Fei made Liu Zelai a cup of tea, sat down on the sofa opposite him, and said to Liu Ze straight to the point.
"Yes, I have six or seven classmates who all work at the newspaper office here in the capital, you ask this, what's the matter?" Liu Zelai glanced at Xiao Fei, and saw that his face was flat, and he couldn't guess what medicine he was selling in his gourd.
"Among these six or seven classmates, are there any ones who have a particularly good relationship?" Xiao Fei didn't answer Liu Zelai's question, but asked again.
"Yes, a very good buddy of mine works as the director of the news department of Huaxia Youth Daily, his name is Meng Xidong." Liu Ze said.
Xiao Fei must have had something in mind.
That's for sure.
However, Liu Zelai knew that although Xiao Fei sometimes used a little off-the-board move, he would not do too much. In this regard, Liu Zelai is very relieved.
"Huaxia Youth Daily, this newspaper has a lot of influence, and it is also very good to be the director of the news department of this newspaper." Xiao Fei said with a smile.
"Xiao Fei, let's talk directly, what do you need him to help you with." Liu Ze said.
"Haha! Brother Zelai, don't worry, I don't plan to trouble this classmate of yours this time, on the contrary, I plan to give him a news planning idea for nothing. Xiao Fei laughed.
"Oh?" Liu Zelai was a little confused, "What idea?" ”
He couldn't figure out what Xiao Fei wanted to do.
"That's right, didn't the Lu Award just recently be nominated for the award? Now it seems that every individual award is during the announcement of the nomination award, right? ”
"Yes."
"I think that the influence of the Lu Award is still very large, and the national attention is very high, what do you think, Brother Zelai?"
"That's true."
"I think that Huaxia Youth Daily should carry out a public opinion survey around this, interact with readers, and let readers choose the list of Lu Award winning works in their minds, so as to see which of these works shortlisted for the nomination award are loved by readers and have high popularity among readers; At the same time, in order to stimulate readers' participation in this activity, you can participate in the award activities, each reader who participates in the survey can participate in the lottery, and the lucky reader can get the highest 1,000 yuan cash prize or a free copy of the 98-year-old Chinese Youth Daily, of course, this activity can be given by our Hanmo company to give some cash sponsorship. Xiao Fei talked eloquently.
Liu Zelai listened quietly, his brows furrowed.
He still didn't understand what Xiao Fei's intention was in doing this.
"What's the purpose of doing this?" Liu Zelai scratched his head and asked.
"Would you believe me if I said it had no purpose?" Xiao Fei said with a smile.
Liu Zelai shook his head: "I don't believe it." He said in his heart that if he didn't have any purpose, Xiao Fei wouldn't have said it so solemnly.
"There is a purpose." Xiao Fei smiled, "I don't believe Brother Zelai can't guess." ”
Liu Zelai patted his head, and exclaimed with a flash of inspiration in his head: "I know, you want to show how popular your "The Old Days of the Sunshine Shines Old" has among readers, if readers unanimously choose it as the winning collection of the Lu Prize Prose Award, then it is estimated that the award organizing committee will also attach great importance to this issue, you want to use the power of public opinion to put pressure on the organizing committee, am I right?" ”
Liu Zelai thought about it, Xiao Fei tried his best, and what he wanted to achieve was probably this goal, right?
"Brother Zelai, it's really amazing!" Xiao Fei gave Liu Zelai a thumbs up.
"But, Xiao Fei, are you so confident that you think that readers will respect your "The Old Times When the Sun Burns Old" so much that they will invariably choose it as the Lu Prize-winning work in their minds? What if most of the readers who participated in the event didn't choose your work because they didn't expect it? Isn't your purpose frustrated? ”
Liu Zelai shook his head disappreciably and said.
"Brother Zelai, have you seen the names of those works nominated for the Lu Prize Prose Award?" Xiao Fei asked.
"Yes, I saw it." Liu Zelai nodded.
"Which one do you think has had a big impact in China?" Xiao Fei asked again.
Sales of essay collections have generally been sluggish in recent years, and a collection of essays that can sell 10,000 copies is a bestseller. Those shortlisted collections, too, did not sell well.
However, Xiao Fei's "The Sunshine Burns Those Old Times" has sold hundreds of thousands of copies in just over a year, which has formed a huge impact in China, and some critics even call Xiao Fei's prose Xiao Fei's prose.
Xiao Fei's prose also won the 1996 Zhuang Liwen Literary Award, which is widely regarded as the most authoritative award for new writers.
Not only that, Xiao Fei's fame is now very famous in China, not to mention a household name, it is not much worse.
If ordinary readers are asked to choose the award-winning works in their minds, then they must prefer those writers and works that they have read and know themselves.
In this regard, Xiao Fei took too much advantage.
Thinking of this, Liu Zelai shook his head, and said in his heart, Xiao Fei's scheming is a little too deep.
"In this way, it is very likely that your collection will be recommended by readers as the Lu Prize-winning work in their minds, but, Xiao Fei, I think that the possibility of the judges being affected by the results selected by this reader is very small, and they will easily deny this result on the grounds that the reader does not have a deep literary aesthetic taste, and you want to use this to pressure the judges, it is estimated that it is impossible to achieve it."
Liu Zelai analyzed again.
"I know." Xiao Fei nodded.
Liu Ze is right, it is too difficult to use the power of the people to influence the thoughts of the judges! But he is not so naïve, and wants to rely on a list of winners selected by the people to pressure the judges to achieve his ultimate goal of winning the award.
In fact, letting Huaxia Youth Daily engage in this activity of the people's election of the Lu Award in their minds is just a warm-up activity in the early stage, and after this activity, he will follow up with follow-up actions.
"Are you going to keep doing it?" Liu Zelai asked.
"Of course! Brother Zelai, I need you to contact Meng Xidong and talk to them about cooperation, it is best to launch this reader interactive survey in the last two days, take advantage of the enthusiasm, collect readers' participation questionnaires in three weeks, and finally publish the final survey results in the Huaxia Youth Daily at the end of December, and list the list of Lu Award winning works elected by the people, and comment on them one by one. Xiao Fei said his plan.
"Okay, I'll do it." Liu Zelai agreed.
He went to find Meng Xidong that day.
Meng Xidong and Liu Zelai are classmates at Hexi University, and they signed in to the capital after graduation, but the two have always been in contact, and they meet several times a year, and the relationship has always been very good. (To be continued.) )
