For not being able to introduce Lu Xun's novels abroad, Lin Zixuan regretted it.

After all, Lu Xun's novel is a representative of new literature, and it is unique in its criticism of "national character", but things in the world can never go as expected, and Lin Zixuan is not God.

What's more, Lu Xun's novels will always be translated in the future, it's just a matter of time.

Moreover, Lin Zixuan felt that Lu Xun's attitude towards him was very subtle, and he might also be a frequent visitor on Lu Xun's blacklist in the future.

Even if Lin Yutang did not obstruct it, this cooperation would not have gone smoothly, because he was too wishful thinking and underestimated the position between literati in this era.

In Lu Xun's mind, he must have been divided into the camp of Hu Shi and Xu Zhimo.

With Lu Xun's character, not accusing him in person is considered to save face for him.

Thinking about this, Lin Zixuan smiled self-deprecatingly, in this era, position and standing in line are very important.

As the saying goes, the Tao is different, and they don't conspire with each other.

Although there is no novel collection "The Scream", Lin Zixuan still has to strive for the publication of this new literary series.

Yu Dafu was very surprised that Lin Zixuan was willing to promote his novels to the West for him, after all, the Creation Society and Lin Zixuan had a lot of contradictions, and he also used to satirize Lin Zixuan in the article by referring to Sang and scolding Huai.

He said that Lin Zixuan relied on the fame touted by Westerners, and became a "great" writer in China.

This is actually for Guo Moruo's anger, and also for the creation of social grievances.

At the beginning, Guo Moruo's "Goddess" was published, which was the first shot of the Creation Society's fame, and the effect was also very good, but because of the dispute over the founder of the new poem, the Creation Society was suppressed by all parties. thus made Lin Zixuan.

The members of the Creation Society believed that if there was no Lin Zixuan, the Creation Society would have sprung up and become a leading figure in the new literature, rather than falling into such a downtrodden state.

Therefore, they always sneered at Lin Zixuan in the article.

Lin Zixuan didn't respond, but Lin Zixuan's Ping Banya and others were not very polite to the Creation Society. The fierce counterattack was just one of the countless controversies launched by the Creation Society.

They have consistently increased their popularity by attacking celebrities.

Lin Zixuan thinks that the novel collection "Sinking" is the first collection of vernacular novels in the new literature, which reflects the painful and confused thoughts of Chinese youth in this era, which is very representative.

He chooses his works from a literary point of view, not from a personal vendetta.

Yu Dafu was very happy, and his requirements for royalties were not high, and the two parties quickly signed a contract.

The two chatted for a while at Peking University, and found that they had a lot of common topics, and they had a frank exchange.

Yu Dafu is a more spontaneous person. To say that it is difficult to hear is self-righteousness, and to say that it is good is to have no scheming, what to say, hatred is clear, and it is bookish.

Lin Zixuan's personality is not hypocritical, he is the kind of person who respects me and I pay you back, and has clear grievances.

In the past, there was no communication between the two sides. I don't know much about it, but I feel quite speculative when I talk about it at the moment.

Yu Dafu explained the misunderstanding in the past. In fact, it's not a misunderstanding, it's just a debate in the literary world, but he wants to resolve the contradiction between Lin Zixuan and Guo Moruo.

Lin Zixuan smiled, I'm afraid that Guo Moruo's prejudice against him is very deep, and it is not easy to resolve it.

Sure enough, after the two separated. Yu Dafu wrote a letter to Guo Moruo, who was far away in Japan, that night, telling about the meeting with Lin Zixuan, and said that Lin Zixuan was a good person, so let it pass the grievances in the early years.

Guo Moruo replied that they and Lin Zixuan were people from two worlds. He never accepts the mercy and handouts of the capitalists.

There is irony in his words, thinking that Lin Zixuan published novels abroad for Yu Dafu, so Yu Dafu said good things for Lin Zixuan, and accepted Lin Zixuan's benefits.

After returning to Japan, in order to make a living, Guo Moruo began translating "Social Organization and Social Revolution" by Japanese writer Ha Shangzhao.

He also systematically came into contact with Marxist theory, thus establishing a Marxist world outlook.

Lin Zixuan also went to meet Zhang Jianshui in Beiping, a writer trained by Vientiane Bookstore, and he has been urging Zhang Jianshui to write novels, for which the two have exchanged letters from time to time.

In March, Zhang Zhenshui finally decided to write a novel called "The History of Chunming".

However, the novel will be serialized in the supplement of the Popular Fiction Daily in Shanghai and the World Evening News in Beiping, where Zhang Jianshui is the editor.

The World Evening News is a tabloid founded by me in 1924, and Zhang Zhenshui has a good relationship with him.

At the beginning, Zhang Jianshui had just come to Beiping and became acquainted with the editor of "Yishi Bao", Cheng She, and through the recommendation of Cheng Sheshe, Zhang Jianshui became the assistant editor of "Yishi Bao".

In the past few years in Beiping, he has been working with Chengshe and me, so it can be said that he is a close friend.

I am a very enterprising person, and the "World Evening News" he founded is very popular because of its impartiality and fair speech, and it is well-informed and correct, and it is not afraid of power and violence, and it completely fulfills the function of the mouthpiece of the people.

Of course, he is also extremely famous for his stinginess.

Taking Zhang Zhenshui's "The History of Chunming" as an example, Lin Zixuan's price is 6 yuan per 1,000 words, while it is only 3 yuan per 1,000 words serialized in the "World Evening News".

Lin Zixuan wanted to persuade Zhang Jianshui to write full-time, and he didn't have to worry about the salary, but Zhang Zhenshui politely refused.

"World Evening News" has just opened its market, he is a particular person, I helped him when he was in trouble, he can't just leave, this is to be a man.

Lin Zixuan also hopes to cooperate with such people, and gratitude is the basic principle of life.

In Beiping, although Lin Zixuan is not as busy as Tagore, he also has a lot of arrangements.

He met with the members of the Crescent Society, talked about poetry, and met with Liang Qichao under the recommendation of Xu Zhimo.

Lin Zixuan's old learning skills are average, and he has nothing to talk about with Liang Qichao, but he just listened to a lesson.

Under the recommendation of Hu Shi, he chatted with Cai Yuanfu about "Dream of Red Mansions", in the current red academic world, that is, the three of them have the highest achievement, but later Lin Zixuan didn't talk much about "Dream of Red Mansions".

Although the three of them held different views, they did not argue much, but only engaged in academic discussions.

It was like holding a small academic conference on "Dream of Red Mansions", which was attended by Wang Guowei and Yu Pingbo and other red researchers from Peking University.

In front of these masters, Lin Zixuan was extremely low-key and humble.

Fortunately, he once studied "Dream of Red Mansions" well for the sake of lecturing, and there were no mistakes, and some later generations of ideas were relatively novel, which could open up ideas for the study of red studies.

At this time, Cai Yuancheng angrily resigned as president of Peking University because of his opposition to the atrocities of the Beiyang warlords, but it was not approved, so he was still nominally the president of Peking University.

At the invitation of Cai Yuanxuan, Lin Zixuan was going to give a speech at Peking University. (To be continued.) )
