Chapter 326: Well Said

Takeshita Kusaoke, who happily accepted the invitation to a dinner at J.K. Rowling's house, not only called Miyuki Kitagawa to his side to say hello to the other party, but also handed over the crystal block of the Booker International Literary Award that he had just won to his daughter's hands and held it. After a few simple polite and greetings with her, he turned to others.

Someone saw that J.K. Rowling was able to invite Takeshita Kusa successfully, so he invited him to draw a scoop on the gourd, but he politely declined. In addition to winning the Booker International Literary Prize, I also had other schedules for my trip to London, England. He didn't intend to mingle in the British high social scene, but he was just a passer-by here.

However, for others, it would be a very face-saving thing to be able to invite Takeshita Kusa to their home. When the time comes, holding a literary salon party at home can not only enhance and demonstrate the high literary accomplishment, cultural heritage, rich connotation, and style of oneself and family members, but also invite characters who are difficult to invite or dare not invite to come to visit, after all, they are socializing under the banner of elegance.

J.K. Rowling, who has a lot of time to discuss literature tomorrow with Takeshita Kusaoke, walked a short distance and found the mobile phone in her bag to call her secretary first, and clearly told the other party to push off all her scheduled arrangements for tomorrow. Then, I made another call to the housekeeper at home, so that he could arrange in advance and be prepared. In the end, she called her husband and talked in detail, after all, she had gained a lot.

The reason why J.K. Rowling respects Takeshita Kusa is not only that he won the world-renowned Booker International Literary Prize, but that she has seen a lot of related literary works of the other party and is greatly impressed. Often, after gaining fame and fortune, popular writers are more eager to yearn for serious literature.

Serious literary writers in the eyes of ordinary people. doesn't seem to be famous, and it doesn't seem to have any status, it's just a group of people in the literary world who are pretending to be sophisticated and pretending to be forced, but they are not as down-to-earth and fame and fortune as popular writers. In the eyes of the world, a book that sells well is a book that is well written. As a matter of fact. This is an extremely ridiculous theory.

The status of serious literary writers is much higher than that of popular writers. Even if a popular writer joins the National Writers' Association, he will only be crowned with the title of a so-called writer. Will those serious literary writers in the National Writers' Association be able to afford the popular writers in their hearts? Will it take you to play? And quite a lot of it is just a few words of encouragement verbally.

Just as many people know that Jin Yong is the grandmaster of Chinese martial arts novels, they don't know that although he is a popular writer, he has never given up on the road of serious literature. When he founded Ming Pao, he was forced to start writing martial arts novels, so that more people could buy the newspaper and avoid bankruptcy. Assuming that "Ming Pao" did not fall into the same predicament as it did back then, there would be no martial arts world created by Jin Yong for the majority of readers. After all, it is with a kind of intentional planting of flowers, the flowers do not bloom, and the willows are planted unintentionally, and the willows are shady.

Moreover, the several martial arts masters and martial arts masters produced in that era, as of today, only Jin Yong has not fallen. Chase the reason. One is that he has put history in the air very well and integrated it into his martial arts. It seems to be the same; The second is that high-level intellectuals in science and engineering generally like his works, which is enough to show that there are dry goods in them.

Among them, the most representative figure is the famous computer text information processing expert, the pioneer of the contemporary Chinese printing industry revolution, known as the "father of Chinese laser phototypesetting system", the 2001 national highest science and technology award, 5 million yuan winner Wang Xuan. And he said it explicitly. I was fascinated by reading Jin Yong's martial arts novels on the train, so that I didn't feel the passage of time.

The writers of the past had the knowledge, courage, ability, and literati to start a newspaper. And not some tabloid of lace gossip news. Among today's writers, who else can have the courage to take responsibility? Those who are generally well-educated among popular writers will continue to work tirelessly in serious literature after making money, and only those popular writers who are born with mud legs will only know how to make money, make money, or make money.

"Mr. Takeshita Kusaoke, quite a few people have begun to put you with the famous contemporary writer of Turkey Felite? Orhan? Pamuk is on a par. He represents Western literature, and you represent Eastern literature. What do you think about this? The mayor of London, who came to Takeshita Kusaoke, asked in a loud voice.

"I really don't dare to take it. Felit, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature? Orhan? Pamuk is considered one of the three most important literary writers in contemporary Europe, one of the most outstanding novelists in contemporary Europe, and an internationally renowned giant in the Turkish literary scene. Literary critics have compared him to Proust, Thomas? Mann, Calvino, Borges, Amberto? Eco and other masters are on a par. As for me, not only have I not yet won the Nobel Prize in Literature, but I am still far from being a master. "It's not being modest and polite, it's not being a self-righteous Takeshita mustard, it's not measured by the strength of the copyist, but by his current original ability.

"You're only thirty years old to achieve something that the world is looking for. With a little more time, you will inevitably become a generation of literary masters. Many of the world's great writers began to shine when they were thirty-seven or eight years old. For example, the great French writer Stendhal. The mayor of London, who was quite optimistic about him, smiled.

Of course, I know that there are many Takeshita grass mustards who became famous at a young age and later fell, so they can't help but give the host face to refute, after all, others have good things to say about themselves. I don't have to be good or bad. So, laughing and silent, he didn't want to accept the other party's words, nor did he want to say things that violated his conscience.

The Mayor of London's attention fell on Miyuki Kitagawa again, and asked with a kind smile, "Are you proud of your father's achievements?" ”

Miyuki Kitagawa, who said "um" directly, nodded her head like a chicken pecking rice, and replied with a sweet smile: "My dad is the best contemporary writer." He will not only be a writer among writers, but he will also become a literary master of the 21st century. ”

"Well said." The mayor of London, who gave her a thumbs up with his left hand, pun intended. On the one hand, I like Miyuki Kitagawa's frankness, and on the other hand, I praise her for speaking standard English. (To be continued.) )
