Chen Beiming looked around.

After everyone's laughter and applause were a little smaller, he continued: "I know, the award of the novel "Bright Sword" has caused some controversy.

Is the novel "Bright Sword" really that good? Doubts were expressed.

The popularity of "Bright Sword" is unprecedented, in the army, the soldiers read him and learn from her, among the people, everyone talks about him, and even many primary and secondary school students are imitating Li Yunlong!

Many people don't understand this phenomenon.

It's just a story of the Anti-Japanese War, that is, it looks interesting, why do so many people like to watch it?

A literary expert even made a thorough academic analysis of "Bright Sword", and finally concluded that the work "Bright Sword" has no effect on improving everyone's literary accomplishment, and it should not be so admired at all!

There are many, many criticisms like this.

These things, summed up and summarized, are actually just one sentence, the work "Bright Sword" has no effect on the improvement of people's literary aesthetics, and it is not worth being so popular at all! ”

After a pause, Chen Beiming continued to speak: "Regarding such a controversy, to tell the truth, I dare not agree!

Literary works to be useful?

What kind of bullshit logic is this?

Every once in a while, we will have a popular literary work that becomes popular, such as "Dawn" some time ago, such as "Bright Sword" during this period of time, every time, as soon as these works become popular, there will be some so-called literary people who jump out to question - how can this happen? Why do ordinary people like such useless things so much?

To sum up, it's still the same sentence, these works of yours have no role in fart, but they became popular, this shouldn't be! What should be popular and what ordinary people should read is our serious literature?

Today, I would like to ask those so-called experts.

What kind of logic is it for literature to be useful!

Can anyone tell me what is the role of a literary work?

Saving the people from fire and water?

Raise the ideological and cultural level of the masses of the people?

Or can it keep people from going hungry?

According to my understanding, I think that the function of literature is that it has no effect.

Therefore, today, at this moment, I feel that it is necessary for me to solemnly implore those so-called literary masters to stop questioning what use our works can bring to the people because of the popularity of our works, because literary works have no role at all, and if you have to impose a role on him, it is that he has no effect! ”

The debate between popular and serious literature has been a long one.

Every time popular literature becomes popular, serious literary writers jump out and accuse it.

This time, of course, there were.

Chen Beiming skillfully changed the topic, and skillfully transferred everyone's controversy over "Bright Sword" to the controversy between serious literature and popular literature, which ended with his short speech, and the auditorium was full of applause, snapping, and it lasted for a long, long time.

Today's party also reached a climax because of his speech.

Everyone nodded frequently.

"Xiao Chen said it really well, yes, the role of literature is actually because he is not so strong utilitarian."

"The role of literature is that it has no effect, it is really incisive, to the point!"

"Hahahaha, now it's okay, the role of literature is that it doesn't have any effect, look at what those old things with serious literature will say in the future?"

The hostess picked up the microphone and said excitedly: "Next, I would like to invite the president to come to the stage to present the award to Mr. Chen Beiming." ”

The president walked on the stage in a hurry, but he was not in a hurry to present the award, but took the microphone from the host: "Everyone, before presenting the award to Comrade Chen Beiming, I have good news to tell you, up to now, the national sales of October magazine in July have successfully broken through the 5 million mark, reaching 5.17 million, so "October" has officially become the only journal in the country and the world with monthly sales of more than 5 million! ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the audience, no matter who it was, couldn't help but applaud.

It's an exciting time indeed.

Five million sales!

This means that the profits of October magazine will increase significantly, and with it, the publication of articles in this magazine will also increase significantly.

The president paused and continued to throw a bombshell: "After argumentation, we decided that October magazine will start the road to IPO next year, officially embarking on the journey of conquering the capital market, if successful, October will once again set a record and become the first popular literature journal in the country to be successfully listed." ”

Bang bang bang.

Everyone applauded again, and this time, the applause was louder than ever.

After the applause calmed down a bit, the president looked at Chen Beiming and said with a smile: "You may not know that all of this is related to this young writer standing next to me at the moment. ”

Something to do with Chen Beiming?

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

The president explained with a smile: "After the publication of "Bright Sword", readers responded strongly, and the call for increasing the number of magazine sales has been endless, especially in all major military units, there are special personnel who have called and specially booked the next issue of "Bright Sword", and it is under the impetus of this effect that the sales of "October" have been rising.

In addition, as we all know, last month, Comrade Chen Beiming acted bravely and successfully prevented the bank robbery case that shocked China and foreign countries, and this incident once again made "Bright Sword" the focus of public opinion, and the sales of "October" once again achieved a blowout growth. ”

Everyone nodded their heads.

Many people who couldn't understand why "October" awarded the grand prize to Chen Beiming suddenly became in their hearts at this moment: "If I were the president, I would do the same, Chen Beiming's social influence is much higher than Li Mingming's." ”

However, what no one expected was that the president threw a bombshell again: "In addition, there is one more thing I want to inform you about, about the IPO of "October", Chen Beiming was the first to make suggestions to us. ”

Let the magazine go on the market, this is indeed Chen Beiming's idea for Ma Youwei.

Didn't Ma Youwei want to be motivated, so he casually mentioned it and helped him come up with an idea to let him find a chance to get results, but he didn't expect Ma Youwei to really be interested in it, and began to make a series of moves and become famous.

The president looked around, and his voice suddenly increased: "So, everyone, is it well deserved to award the special prize of this essay contest to Comrade Chen Beiming?" ”

"Yes." Everyone answers together.

"I really have to give it to him!"

"This guy.... Deserves this award. ”

Everyone nodded secretly.

Seeing this, the president's face was suddenly full of smiles, he took the trophy from Miss Manners and solemnly handed it to Chen Beiming: "Congratulations, Comrade Chen Beiming, congratulations on winning the special prize of the 15th "October" Essay Contest. ”

"Thank you!" Chen Beiming took the trophy and held it high.

Bang bang bang.

There was instant applause in the auditorium.
