Chapter 179: Finalist for the Booker Literary Prize
Thinking about life is by no means something that ordinary people can do, once thinking about life is caught in thinking, it is easy to forget time, if you can't carry the hungry person may not be able to do this thing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Luo Feng was a little frustrated to discover this fact, isn't it suitable for him to think about life?
This problem is obviously an unexplainable problem, getting up, eating, thinking about life, Luo Feng's life is boring but very orderly. Thinking that the lives of great people are so orderly, Luo Feng is inexplicably a little happy.
There is such a little benefit in your own home, you don't have to cook at all, the old man in your own home prepares everything for you, Luo Feng returned to his room after eating, he didn't know what he was doing, he didn't like to go out for a run, he was a duty otaku.
"Hey, Xiao Luo? What are you doing now? ”
"Think about life."
"Xiao Luo, don't make trouble, you don't know yet, right?"
"Brother Lei, what's wrong, you can tell me anything directly."
"You've been shortlisted for the Man Booker Literary Prize, don't you know that you're the only one in Asia?"
"What's going on, I'm still asleep in bed."
Luo Feng could obviously feel the speechlessness on the other end of the phone, others were happy to tell you about your big happy event, but the owner was still so calm, and suddenly there was a very painful feeling.
Luo Feng's phone calls didn't stop the next day, and there would be good news from time to time. Zhang Yongsheng, the old man, also called him personally: "Xiao Luo, the old man didn't mistake you, it's really a fight for our Chinese people!" ”
"No, is the old man so exaggerated?"
"Don't you kid think that you're starting to your tail when you're shortlisted?"
"No, why am I just cocking my tail?"
"Don't say anything, hurry up and send me the original manuscript, don't say a good Chinese dialect, if you have to write any English novels, you have to let the old man read it with a dictionary."
In Zhang Yongsheng's complaint, Luo Feng sent the original manuscript very speechlessly, but he didn't know that on the other end of the computer, Zhang Yongsheng was showing off to a group of old men with a proud face, "What do I say, if you want to read the Metamorphosis in advance, you can only find the old man me, you can see that I will give you a phone call to come over the original manuscript." Then there was a burst of exaggerated flattery and the smug laughter of the old man Zhang Yongsheng.
However, the most surprised at this moment was William, but he knew why Luo Feng wrote this novel, purely to promote himself, but what the hell is this shortlisted? He knew it had taken less than a day to write! I'm sorry, but now he can't help but swear, because he can't express the shock in his heart without swearing.
In fact, William was still quite speechless, he originally wanted to apply for Luo Feng for the Booker International Literary Award, which is a branch of the Booker Literary Award, and it can be regarded as a relatively famous literary award in the UK in recent years. He never thought about the Booker Literary Prize, which is the highest literary award jointly selected by the British publishing and library circles, and the Goncourt Literary Prize in France, the Pulitzer Prize in Literature in the United States, known as the three awards, and the authoritative literary award second only to Nobel.
The Nobel Prize in Literature is not a professional literary award, it also includes all aspects of education, physics and chemistry, so the Nobel Prize in Literature has been controversial over the years. But the Booker Literary Award is definitely different, it is so authoritative that the person who wins the Booker Literary Award every year is definitely a literary master-level figure, and now Luo Feng, as a pure newcomer, has been shortlisted for such an authoritative literary award.
William suddenly had a hunch, he felt that he might not have to worry about Luo Feng's publicity at all, William's guess was not wrong, because the media throughout Europe were reporting on the thirteen people shortlisted for the Booker Literary Prize, and Luo Feng, as the face of Asia, naturally attracted attention! When the media picked up Luo Feng's information, they were stunned!
The Times, as the oldest British newspaper and the most authoritative newspaper, wrote: When we were curious that an Asian could be shortlisted for our country's literary event, we looked up the information of this Chinese man with curiosity, but this young man turned out to be a star? When can a star write such a literary work? Let's take a look at the other works of this Chinese man, who was hailed by the jury as the most knowledgeable about capitalism, my God, he is actually good at writing love poems.........
Forgive the Times for such a nonsensical report, but Luo Feng's behavior is too surprising. The Times is still like this, and other newspapers are even more powerful, what Luo Feng writes songs in a minute, what, is he a singer? He also loves photography and has won awards.......
However, Luo Feng is more interested in the French, how can romantic French not like people who can write love poems? As a result, Luo Feng's works were translated into French and English and began to circulate, plus this is the base camp of the world, and the news about Luo Feng will not be interrupted at all.
When there was a boom abroad, China finally realized how good Luo Feng's shortlisting was this time, and a Weibo post posted by Hao Chao quickly circulated on the Internet: I have a friend named Luo Feng. In the past, I always thought that I was a top student, an excellent talent, and a pillar of the motherland. But since I met Luo Feng, I don't like to talk anymore, he debuted a year more popular than me, won the Golden Melody Award on his first album, wrote poems and became poets, and opened a column at a young age. Now that you want me to say that I am convinced, you will write an essay shortlisted for the Booker Literary Prize, and today I will still put the words here: Brother knelt for you! What's wrong? It's so urine!
This Weibo was quickly reprinted, and the stars have expressed their admiration for Luo Feng with the word kneeling, and at this time I also saw Luo Feng's huge popularity, Xie Na, baby, Huang Ming, Hao Chao, Li Honglei, Lu Yihan, Wang Yilin, etc. This is my friend!
This move is almost half of the entertainment industry, even people who didn't know Luo Feng before chose to reprint it one after another, no matter what, this is to win glory for the country, why do you say that? Because the status of the Booker Literary Prize has been popularized on television, just listen to the literary tycoons who have won this award, and you can know how powerful this award is!
Global Huaxia Company, Yang Mei looked at the introduction of the Booker Literary Award on TV with a little dumbfounded, and then looked at Luo Feng next to him with an indifferent face: "Are you really shortlisted for this award?" ”
"Sister Yang, it's just a finalist, not an award."
"Luo Feng, you're too powerful!" The next moment, Yang Mei directly ignored Luo Feng's sentence that he was not awarded, and jumped up wildly with Luo Feng in her arms, as if this was the only way to show the excitement in her heart, Luo Feng could only smile bitterly....... (To be continued.) )
