Chapter Seventy-Nine: As soon as the tree man comes out, who will compete!
Today is the day when Leng Xuan, a newcomer in the literary world, released his book, thanks to his behavior of defeating the little devil to win glory for China, he has earned a lot of eyeballs, so many people have been waiting in line in major bookstores for a long time.
In fact, speculative literature is a niche in China, but for Leng Xuan's sake, many people come with the mentality of buying a book without reading it.
It's just that people don't know that in fact, today is also the day when the poetry collection of the Sujiang Literary Association is on sale.
After the two student-looking boys bought a copy of Leng Xuan's "Fierce Righteousness", they didn't leave, and by the way, they saw what other books they had to buy, and then they saw a book of poems "Green" by the Sujiang Literary Association this year placed in the forefront, and they couldn't help but be a little curious, how did the bookstore owner of the Literary Association put it in such a good position, because these so-called poems seemed to them to be nothing more than some pretentious and disease-free moaning words.
So, they explained their doubts to the shopkeeper, who was busy with it, and just glanced at it: "Look at the bottom left corner of the cover for yourselves."
The two picked up a copy of "Green", only to find that in the lower left corner there was a sentence written in a faint line of small characters: "Shuren's new work "Life"
Treants? Could it be the tree man who is out of the limelight, that's our idol!
"To tell you the truth, I only put the word tree man on the front of the exhibition," the shopkeeper finally added, "Do you want to buy it?" ”
The two students looked at the book sealed by the film, and knew that if they wanted to see the new work of the tree man, they had to buy the book, so they gritted their teeth and said, "Okay, let's have one each!" ”
At noon, Leng Xuan's new book was originally discussed on the Internet, but a post suddenly became popular:
"Tree Man's new poem released! The shortest modern poem in history! ”
"Today I went to the bookstore to buy a book by Leng Xuan, and accidentally found that the poetry collection of the Sujiang Literary Association "Green" published new poems of Shuren, I do not deny that I am a fan of Shuren, so I bought a copy, went home and flipped through it, and found that this poetry collection is a modern poetry collection, the theme is 'life', a total of eighty-nine literati works have been published, I won't say what the quality of these works is, anyway, it's that urine, I'm going to the name of Shuren, okay! Finally, I turned to the last of the treeman's work, and the result directly blinded my 24K pure titanium alloy dog eye! Oh my God, his work is only five words even with the title plus signature and content! Among them, the title is 'life', the author's name is 'Shuren', and the content of the poem is only one word! Yes, you read that right, it's just one word! But this one word is the end of life! Well, even if you say that I am a fan of the Tree Man's brains, I will praise him like this, it is really simple! ”
Netizens were aroused, and some people were constantly curious to buy the poetry collection of the Sujiang Literary Association.
And the tree man fan group will be even more supportive, and the tree man has a new work?! Even many people complained, how can Shuren produce a new work, and there is no news at all? Doesn't the Sujiang Literary Association know about propaganda? We almost missed it!
Actually, it's not that the Sujiang Literary Association doesn't know the publicity, but they want to face, since they received the works sent by the tree people, those who also want to publish the works are suddenly a little ashamed, but they are all seniors, and they want them to use the name of the tree man as a gimmick with great fanfare, doesn't it mean that this poetry collection depends on the tree man? What's more, Ye Hua didn't want to over-consume the reputation of the tree man, and finally discussed it for a long time before he inconspicuously marked the name of the tree man on the cover.
But even so, this poetry book is still on fire! Just because of the word treeman! And his new work is too topical! A poem has more titles than content! :
life
- Tree Man
Net.
That's what the poem is all about, a few words printed on a large sheet of snow-white paper, extremely impactful, life, net?
Whether it is a tree man pretending to be compared or not, but many people are touched when they see this poem, and then ponder it is true, yes, if you have to encompass this complex society in one word, isn't it the "net", we have not been born on the net, but some people are tighter, and some people are looser.
There are more and more interpretations and discussions about this poem, people are impressed by the hazy and grand artistic conception of this poem, and some people even propose a "hazy poetry school", which sets Shuren as the founder of hazy poetry, which attracts many literati to imitate, in short, the popularity of this poem soon exceeds Leng Xuan's discussion, and Shuren's fans shout everywhere, and they also leave messages on Shuren Weibo, so that Shuren can give their own interpretation.
This time, the tree man was very face-saving, and actually replied, although it was only one sentence:
"Life is a net, it catches you and me"
Sure enough, this sentence became popular again, countless people's signatures were replaced with this sentence, and many students' essays also had materials, often writing like this: "The poet Shuren said: Life is a net, it catches you and me, right,......"
…………
"Mr. Chu, what should we do next?" Leng Xuan's face was huddled together, and his confidence was very insufficient.
Chu Mingyu, who looked out the window with his back to Leng Xuan, his face sank like water, he had worked so hard to plan for so long, who knew that he couldn't resist Su Mo's poem with only one word! Okay, Su Mo, you won the first round, let's see!
"Don't be afraid, don't we have the next step, did I tell you to polish the work seriously?" Chu Mingyu looked back and smiled.
"Don't worry, it's been polished, for this work, all the inspiration I have been conceiving for years has been used on it" Speaking of this, Leng Xuan regained some self-confidence.
"That's good, as long as the quality is reasonable, things are easy to do, the end of November to the beginning of December is the day of the selection of the three major international mystery literature awards, the 'Ellen Award' of the United States I spent a lot of effort to get through a few judges, and then I guarantee that there will be your award!"
Leng Xuan's eyes lit up, as long as he was recognized by the Ellen Award, it would be equivalent to a layer of gold, and his name would definitely be on the next level!
"Thank you Mr. Chu for your support!" Leng Xuan said excitedly.
Chu Mingyu nodded: "It's just a matter of duty, you go back and rest first, and I'll arrange the rest of the things!" ”
Leng Xuan left with a thousand thanks, Lu Jiaojiao walked in and didn't speak, Chu Mingyu said: "I will never put my eggs in just one basket, I want to secretly cultivate another best-selling author, you can find someone for me!" ”
Lu Jiaojiao smiled: "I was about to report this matter to you, I think there is a person with great potential, and coincidentally, this person has a little to do with Su Mo!" ”
"Oh, show me!" Chu Mingyu took the information with great interest, and immediately a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Yes, it's him!" ”
……
"Alas, it looks like I'm going to have another title of mystery writer again!"
In his study, Su Mo let out a puff of smoke and muttered to himself.
"But if you want to do it, you have to do it vigorously! Chu Mingyu, I know you want to praise Leng Xuan as the head of Huaxia Reasoning Literature, but I'm sorry, you're in my way! Reasoning will be my first step into the international arena! ”
"But I'm really annoyed about which work I'm going to write!"
