After listening to Jiang Shang's rebuttal, the girl started a new round of rebuttal, Jiang Tianyi became the opponent of the three arguments Jiang Shang's argument that jumping timeline works must be long: "Although there are still short stories that can build an excellent work that jumps the timeline, there is a short suspense novel, which can be regarded as a sub-level in this genre, which is "Memory Fragments". This is Nolan's work, and it's a very good short story. It is usually customary to discuss the influence of the human spiritual world on the external world and the perception of time, but if there is no memory as a carrier, then the writing of the timeline is debatable. It is worth sighing that if in a work like "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny", the protagonist is given the setting of the only person who can remember what happened in the world after jumping the world line, "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" can be completely compressed into a suspenseful story on a flat timeline. Recording false cognitions and short-term memories in memory is a way of writing that is comparable to a timeline jump! Therefore, the way of writing cannot be the core factor in determining the length of the article! ”

"That's just comparable, but the story still feels different!" Jiang Xiang rushed up to oppose Jiang Tianyi, "Not to mention the relatively simple narrative techniques of those short works, let's just look at the economic value created by the novel." The "Harry Potter" series, the "Tomb Robbery Notes" series, the "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" series, as well as the series of movies such as "The Three-Body Problem", "Full-time Master", and Marvel World, create the overall economic value, how many short stories must be piled together to make so much money? Again, on the best-selling list of e-books, you see, there has not been a single short story shortlisted in these years, and all the special titles sold are novels, the enduring "White Deer Plain" and "Sherlock Holmes," Jiang Xiang said while laughing and looking at his mobile phone, "Haha, this "Sherlock Holmes" series is really something that can never be deleted from a teenager book, as well as "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty". What is this called, this is called high and low, no matter how well your short stories are written, they are not vulgar enough! Only if it is easy to pass and cater to the trend can it be a big seller! ”

The girls shook their heads when they heard Jiang Xiang's speech, Wei Ruxuan couldn't help but jump up with the rabbit and retorted to Jiang Xiang: "Pandering is one thing, resonance is really important!" Do you dare to say that all the best-selling works in the short fiction can't catch up with the long-form novels in total? "The Shawshank Redemption", "Brokeback Mountain", "July and Ansheng", "Fight Club", "Forrest Gump" and "Rejuvenation" are all blockbusters, and there is also an animated movie, "Five Centimeters per Second", none of the original works of these works lost to the big novels you said! Even the novellas of about 200,000 words have a lot of "Life of Pi", "The Red Lantern Hangs High", "Farewell My Concubine", etc., and do you look at the recent works of big novels are easier to hit the box office? ”

Jiang Xiang was choked by Wei Ruxuan's powerlessness to fight back, and squeezed his eyebrows at Jiang Shang, Jiang Shang leaned on the inside of the sofa, he pondered and said: "The short story is a refined and condensed background, compared with the big story, it lacks a grand pattern and a large scene description, and in the shaping of the characters, you can only focus on the key points and cannot see its side, like a leopard in a tube, while the long story can be empty, abstract or large-scale fictional." I use figurative historical novels and historical character novels as examples here, such as "Zeng Guofan", "The Great Qin Empire", and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". In addition to historical novels and martial arts novels, all of Jin Yong's works can be used as examples here. There is also the wind crossing that you girls like very much, and the alternate history category, I cite the well-known "Back to the Ming Dynasty as a Prince" and "Langya Bang". As for the works of abstract thinking and very logical relationships, most of them are science fiction novels, and the setting and framework structure of this kind of works are very complex, and such stories cannot be seen in ordinary short stories. ”

In this way, this debate competition did not end until almost four o'clock in the afternoon, according to the rules of debate, the reviewers do not participate in free debate, so it is almost equivalent to Jiang Shang alone vs. four sharp-toothed girls, although the four girls are not aggressive, but the rules are clear and reasonable, Jiang Shang is also sweating profusely, the final stage of the game made an exception for Xu Bin to join the free debate, but at the last moment of exhaustion, Jiang Xiang ended with "Do you dare to say that the favorite work in your life is a novel or a short story." In the end, through statistics, it was found that in the book that everyone loved the most, the one that they liked was the big one, and 70% of the people's favorite was the big novel.

Grandpa Jiang announced that the boys had won the girls with an out-and-out victory, and he had not experienced such a heated discussion for a long time, and said that he would like to follow his wife to have more contact with young people in the future.

After dinner, the grandparents went for a walk in the sunset, and the young people gathered in the middle of the yard to take pictures of the rabbits, and finally Xu Bin suggested that they go home early to rest before they dispersed. Xiao Yun took Wei Ruxuan back to her house and lived with Wei Ruxuan, she is a person who lives all over the world, carries a small military backpack with her, and her clothes are also very simple, so Yan Qiyan commented that she is a pure master, and no one objected.

Xu Bin, who returned to Jiang Tianyi's house, hurriedly said to Jiang Tianyi: "Baby, do you have a small red rose crystal earrings in all your jewelry from childhood to adulthood, a limited edition made by Swarovski and Disney?" Like this? Xu Bin took out the photos stored in his mobile phone and showed them to Jiang Tianyi.

Jiang Tianyi took a closer look and said: "I have an impression, but I don't know if it's because I've seen someone else bring it before, my trinkets are too many, especially roses, because I am in the Lolita industry, and there are nearly 100 kinds of rose studs and earrings in my entire collection, I have to pour out all the things to find them, because I have moved several times." ”

Xu Bin grabbed the mobile phone and his palms were a little sweaty: "Then hurry up!" ”

Jiang Tianyi sighed: "It's good if you said it earlier, with Xiao Yun here, maybe it can be faster, she helped me clean up all my things, I still have to ask her if I can't find something!" After finishing, Jiang Tianyi took Xu Bin into the master bedroom, "Hey, it seems that you are really obsessed with your Belle!" I'm getting a little jealous. Since it was such an important thing, it was probably impossible for that Belle to throw it away, and if I did, she would stuff it into a small embroidered cloth bag and put it under the pillow every day. Forget it, let's look for it first. ”

Xu Bin entered Jiang Tianyi's storage room, Jiang Tianyi turned on all the spotlights for the first time and said, "You should be mentally prepared first!" Don't be scared! ”

Xu Bin smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid of hiding a rotting corpse in this cabinet, not to mention that it's all your treasures!" ”

Jiang Tianyi immediately covered Xu Bin's mouth and smiled: "Don't talk nonsense!" I'm just afraid that it's too messy, and you dislike me! ”
