After Ai Qing recited "I Love This Land", and then recited other poems, all of which received enthusiastic responses from the audience!

The atmosphere was so warm that it even surpassed the concerts of music superstars.

At the beginning of the reform and opening up, the entertainment and cultural industries in Chinese mainland were somewhat out of the mainstream of the world.

However, poetry creation is still at a very high level!

Chinese poetry has always been very high since ancient times.

Book of Poetry, Han Yuefu, Tang Poetry, Song Ci, Yuan Song

In the feudal era, when most countries did not know what poetry was, there were many peaks of poetry creation in Chinese history!

In modern times, after the emergence of modern poetry, the responsibility assumed was to use poetry to propagate the purpose of revolution and national salvation. Therefore, a large number of poems have been honed to achieve amazing modern poets.

Hong Kong, although there are popular novels such as Jin Yong, Yi Shu, and Ni Kuang. But Hong Kong's popular novels were a concoction for entertaining the public in times of peace and prosperity.

Under Ai Qing's bold poems, it seems a bit small.

Zhang Shaojie felt deeply ashamed and ashamed of himself!

Ai Qing's demeanor, that kind of aura, is really a dragon roaring and sweeping the audience. There is no one in Hong Kong who can compare with him, this is the cultural person of the big picture!

Zhang Shaojie looked at Jin Yong and thought that many literati in the mainland have always regarded Jin Yong's novels as unelegant.

In fact, this is not cultural literacy and knowledge level, but the kind of big pattern and boldness, Jin Yong is not enough to compare with Ai Qing and others because of his own experience.

Soon Zhang Shaojie thought that this kind of poetry to save the country and save the people is indeed great!

But this is undemanding, after all, only in that age of misery and hopelessness can such great poems be written.

In today's peaceful environment, imitating that kind of bold poem will always be embarrassing to draw a tiger and not become an anti-dog!

In this era, saving the world and trying to survive is no longer the purpose of the times. Building a strong country, making the country strong, and making the people rich materially and spiritually is the new goal.

Therefore, if the cultural circles can do their job well, make good-looking movies, sing beautiful songs, and draw cartoons that are widely popular at home and abroad, it can be regarded as serving the nation and the motherland with practical actions.

After the poetry reading.

Hong Kong's "Ta Kung Pao", "Wen Wei Po", "Hong Kong Commercial Daily" and other leftist newspapers have been constantly propagandizing, and other mainstream newspapers "Ming Pao" and "Sing Tao Yuebao" have also followed up and reported.

Ai Qing's Selected Poems was also published in Hong Kong, and more than 50,000 copies of "Ai Qing's Selected Poems" were sold at one time. For the manuscript fee alone, Ai Qing can earn 100,000 Hong Kong dollars.

However, Ai Qing is very generous, half of it is donated to Hong Kong's charity, and half of it is handed over to the country, and he has a clean sleeve and does not accept a penny by himself.

Because Ai Qing and other Chinese mainland literary and artistic figures are very popular in Hong Kong.

Naturally, publishers and newspapers have also asked for manuscripts. Ai Qing, Ba Jin and others are also happily publishing poems, essays, and novels in some leftist media.

Although, although the results cannot be compared with Jin Yong, Yishu, Ni Kuang and others. However, it can be regarded as a raptor crossing the river, and the face of the mainland literary and artistic circles has been greatly increased!

Compared with Ai Qing, Ba Jin and others who have meetings everywhere and have manuscripts every day, Zhang Yimou is relatively cold.

Occasionally, Zhang Yimou, holding a video camera, shoots some scenes outside of Hong Kong.

The rest of the time is mostly sheep herding.

Because Zhang Yimou was very leisurely, Zhang Shaojie invited him to his home.

"Shaohuai, this is Brother Zhang Yimou, just worshiped me!" Zhang Shaojie said to Shaohuai with a smile.

Shaohuai was also very happy and said: "Brother Yimou is good!" ”

Zhang Yimou smiled and took out a book of poems and said: "Little brother Shaohuai, your brother and I are sworn brothers, and when I see you, I also regard you as my own brother." Brother Mou has nothing to give, this poem was copied by me, and it contains some famous poems by Gu Cheng, Ai Qing, Guo Moruo and other poets in the mainland. When you're idle, you can read it and take a look! ”

Shaohuai was pleasantly surprised: "Gu Cheng! The poet who wrote "One Generation"! I admire him too much, I don't know Brother Mou, do you know Gu Cheng? ”

Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "I am now studying photography at the Yenching Film Academy, and I don't know many people in the literary and artistic circles, Gu Cheng, a great poet." I know him, but he doesn't know me! ”

Shaohuai was a little disappointed and said, "Oh! If Brother Mou knows Gu Cheng in the future, help me get a copy of his signed poetry collection! ”

"Definitely, definitely!" Zhang Yimou is more heroic.

――――――――

Ba Jin's delegation has frequent cultural exchange activities.

In the past few years, I have visited France, Germany, the United States and other countries.

After the exchange in Hong Kong.

Next, Ba Jin and others will visit Yuben.

Before Ba Jin's departure, he had a meeting with Zhang Shaojie.

"The biggest problem for contemporary Chinese writers is that they pay more and more attention to ideological and educational surnames. Lost the ability to write novels! After meeting with Ba Jin, Zhang Shaojie said directly.

Ba Jin smiled and said, "I agree with your point of view. The vast majority of domestic writers today do not communicate with the masses, they sit and talk and hold meetings to discuss, instead of absorbing nutrients from the masses and life! ”

Zhang Shaojie said categorically: "Not only that, no matter how a writer experiences life, if he still has the idea of educating people in his head, he also deviates from the purpose of the novel!" The purpose of the novel is to please the public. Whatever the masses need, we write! Instead of forcibly instilling in the masses what we think needs to be added! Social phenomena, surnames, values, these can be written, but not the point, the point is that the novel is interesting to write, and can still be sold after hundreds of years, and can still create value! ”

Hearing Zhang Shaojie's words, Ba Jin fell into deep thought.

Ba Jin has read classical novels such as "Saying Yue" and "Journey to the West", and in a special era, he has read this kind of books about feudal remnants, even if it is Ba Jin, he is also criticized and educated.

This is still classical, if it is the old school martial arts such as "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" and "The Legend of Jianghu" during the Republic of China, the remnants of feudalism and the dregs of capitalism, will be severely criticized.

Undoubtedly, those traditional novels. Even in modern times, the surname of Fun is much stronger than the novels of many writers in the system today!

For example, publishing houses can always sell "Journey to the West", but publishing some books by new authors has a certain market risk.

The reason is not the surname, the ideological surname and the depth, but the interesting surname!

"Journey to the West", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and other novels, the purpose of their own creation is that the storyteller wrote in order to please the audience and make money, because it is interesting, so these classical masterpieces can endure!

Seeing Ba Jin pondering, Zhang Shaojie was still sharp and said: "To be promoted to the palace of art, it is to be closed and closed, that kind of elite writing, or not!" Moreover, the persecuted people in the special era have written about such 'scars' and talked too much about politics and too much criticism, which will gradually lead the young students' thoughts to violence and venting, and will bring a heavy burden to the development of the hinterland in the future! You don't care about this bad atmosphere? ”

"Scars?" Barking frowned.

However, he soon understood that after the Gang of Four was defeated, many people in the literary and artistic circles were rehabilitated. Because it was oppressed in that era, it was natural to write about grievances and scars in a swarm. The initial small number of such words is to set things right.

Now there is a large number of such venting dissatisfaction and telling the grievances of the past, which will increase the burden on society and affect social stability.

If there are people with intentions, a little fanning the flames will cause unnecessary damage to Chinese society.

Once there is really a group surname incident in society, it will also make the political axe's laxity towards the literary and artistic circles turn into strict control!

The communication with Ba Jin is generally good.

Ba Jin has a good view of Zhang Shaojie, a young man.

Ordinary literati in the mainland, in the bureau, although they also feel that the atmosphere is full of venting dissatisfaction and something is a little wrong, but they still haven't thought carefully about what kind of consequences will be caused.

Zhang Shaojie analyzed that the scars and venting dissatisfaction really undermine social stability. It will inevitably be subject to strict control, and a momentary venting will bring strict control to the literary and artistic circles in the future.

The group of ignorant literati who know how to scratch all day long, moan all day long, and write scars are not so-called elegance or so-called thoughtful surnames, but will harm the entire hinterland literary and artistic creation environment.

After pointing out the problem, Zhang Shaojie also gave a solution - less scratching, more entertainment!

A large number of martial arts novels, romance novels, science fiction novels, and fairy tales that are popular with the masses are published and published, and the publishing house must give a reasonable manuscript fee.

For this kind of entertainment surname that is popular with the masses, high remuneration is implemented.

For articles that readers don't like, reduce publication and reduce remuneration.

In this way, those scarred literati will always realize that it is more profitable to write entertainment and cheerful things.

Well, the direction of their writing will soon change!

"Haha, you kid, you actually want to publish your "Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" in the mainland, right?" Ba Jin looked like he saw through Zhang Shaojie.

Zhang Shaojie smiled: "Of course, live Lei Feng, I won't do it!" As a layman who writes to make money, being able to earn RMB manuscript fees is naturally what I am happy to see! ”

――――――

A few days later, farewell to Ba Jin.

Zhang Shaojie felt that looking back on the past few days of communication, he felt a little blushing. The so-called high opinion that I said, in fact, Ba Jin has long put forward a similar view.

It's just that Ba Jin didn't deliberately pursue it, for Ba Jin, the realm is "real, natural, and unskillful".

can have such a level of perception of the home, the pursuit is completely different from Zhang Shaojie.

Zhang Shaojie is still distinguishing between serious and popular, and is still studying entertainment surnames and ideological surnames, but Ba Jin has long transcended this superficial understanding.

Sure enough, before leaving, Ba Jin's domineering appearance was exposed. Published the Riptide trilogy in Hong Kong - "Home", "Spring" and "Autumn", and sold 70,000 copies in a few days!

"Rely on it, it's a shame!" Not long ago, Zhang Shaojie believed that mainland writers are not competitive enough in the market and cannot write works that ordinary people like.

As a result, a few days later, Ba Jin's novel sold 70,000 copies in Hong Kong.

Ba Jin's combat power is simply so strong!

The combat power of selling 70,000 copies in a few days, Ni Kuang and Yishu's sales cannot be compared with Ba Jin.

Fortunately, Jin Yong and Zhang Shaojie can still hold on, and they are not blown up by Ba Jin's circulation!

Slap in the face!

Naked * naked was slapped in the face!

Zhang Shaojie can imagine the smug appearance of the old man Ba Jin.

Of course, now Ba Jin has led a delegation to take a plane and fly to Tokyo.

Therefore, Zhang Shaojie doesn't have to be embarrassed!

was embarrassed in front of Ba Jin, but Zhang Shaojie felt that his eyes were suddenly bright!

Previously, he had only been blinded by well-known novels.

In fact, those pure novels, financial books, political commentary, and history books can also be neatly organized.

Guo Xiaosi's books can be sold to middle school girls, Han Han's books can be sold to rebellious teenagers, and Song Hongbing's books can be sold to social elites
