Chapter 122: Legends
Now Lin Zixuan is not alone, he has his own small forces in the literary world, and he does not need to fight back personally for this level of attack.
Ping Banya is the vanguard of defending Lin Zixuan, and he used his pen name to refute the term "ghostwriting".
Do authors who can write works like "Border City" need to ghostwrite for others? It's not better to publish it yourself for fame and fortune.
Moreover, writers who write historical novels can write novels as long as they study history, so why do writers who write Xiangxi genre novels have to have the experience of living in Xiangxi?
Reading books and listening to others can increase your experience, do you still need to find someone to write for you?
Lin Zixuan did not participate in the American Civil War, but still wrote "Gone with the Wind", which is proof.
There are also people who think that Lin Zixuan employs a huge group of writers behind him, otherwise how could he be so prolific, writing millions of words in two years, which is extremely unscientific.
Zheng Zhengqiu was able to prove the speed at which Lin Zixuan wrote novels, and there is no doubt that they saw "Gone with the Wind" with their own eyes on a cruise ship to the United States.
Lin Zixuan ignored the turmoil in the literary world, because on August 14, a major event happened in Shanghai.
Sun Zhongshan came to Shanghai and stayed in a villa at No. 29 Molière Road in the French Concession.
It is not far from the Lin Mansion where Lin Zixuan lives in Huangpu District, less than 20 minutes on foot, and even closer by car.
On June 15, 1922, Sun Zhongshan broke with the Cantonese warlord Chen Jiongming due to political disagreements, and was forced to flee Guangzhou, taking refuge on the Yongfeng ship for more than 40 days, waiting for the Northern Expeditionary Army to return to the division for rescue.
However, the Northern Expeditionary Army's return to the division was hindered and delayed.
On August 9, Sun Zhongshan left Guangzhou on the British ship "Moxuan", passed through Hong Kong, and headed for Shanghai.
Although Shanghai was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Beiyang government, the Beiyang government in the concession had no control.
Moreover, Lu Yongxiang, the Anhui warlord who controlled Shanghai, wanted to form an alliance with Sun Zhongshan in order to fight against the direct warlords, so he did not take any measures against Sun Zhongshan coming to Shanghai.
On August 14, Sun Zhongshan arrived in Shanghai and stayed in a two-story garden villa in the style of a European village.
It was purchased by Sun Zhongshan in 1918 by overseas Chinese living in Canada.
With Sun Zhongshan's prestige in China, his visit to Shanghai naturally caused a sensation, and both Chinese and foreigners attached great importance to it, and many political and business leaders in Shanghai visited him.
Lin Zixuan's business community in Shanghai is considered a small character, although it is very noisy, but his strength is too weak, and he does not have this qualification, if it is his grandfather, it is almost the same.
So, he didn't go to join in the fun.
Sun Zhongshan has to meet guests every day, he should be very busy, so don't bother, just have time to meet in public, and it can be regarded as a trip in vain.
However, on August 20, he received an invitation to visit 29 rue de la molière, where he could bring a female companion, and the inviter was Song Ziwen.
This seems very strange, bringing a female companion to explain that it is not a formal meeting, but more like a family party, but Lin Zixuan and Song Ziwen do not have such a deep friendship, but a little contradiction.
Lin Zixuan understood after thinking about it.
It should be that Sun Zhongshan has something to talk to him, but the status gap between the two sides is a bit big, and it is not easy to invite directly, so he used the name of Song Ziwen, which can be regarded as a gathering between young people.
In this era, it is very polite, not as casual as later generations.
In the evening, Lin Zixuan drove with Feng Chengcheng and came to the villa, when someone opened the door and invited him in.
Lin Zixuan didn't care about the person who opened the door, but after a closer look, he was startled, and almost didn't throw out the red wine in his hand.
If he had seen this person on other occasions, he would not have lost his temper so much, but he didn't expect this person to come and open the door for him in person, which made him feel a little frightened.
Fortunately, he controlled his emotions, nodded and smiled at the man, pretended not to know, and walked towards the villa.
But his gaffe couldn't hide from Feng Chengcheng beside her, she felt Lin Zixuan's nervousness, because Lin Zixuan held her hand too hard, and it hurt a little.
"What's wrong?" Feng Chengcheng said worriedly.
"Remember, this man will be rich and prosperous in the future." Lin Zixuan whispered in Feng Chengcheng's ear.
Feng Chengcheng looked back and felt that the person was a little familiar, as if he had seen it by her father's side.
Song Ziwen was still the same as Lin Zixuan, enthusiastic and alienated, the two chatted casually, and Feng Chengcheng was taken away by Song Ziwen's second sister Song Qianling.
Feng Chengcheng is very much looking forward to this invitation, who doesn't want to meet this pair of legends.
At dinnertime, Sun Zhongshan, who had not shown up, walked downstairs, looking good and in good spirits.
Sun Zhongshan wanted to see Lin Zixuan, because he was more curious about Lin Zixuan.
Lin Zixuan has a high influence among Americans, and he even heard that the people in the southern United States may not know the governor, but they know Lin Zixuan, who wrote "Gone with the Wind", which is probably the charm of literature.
A writer with an international reputation is of great benefit to the promotion of China's international status.
Another thing is the movie "Jinmen Hero Huo Yuanjia".
Sun Zhongshan learned about the dispute between Lin Zixuan and the Japanese from Chen Gongzhe of the Jingwu Sports Association.
The main role of the movie "Jinmen Hero Huo Yuanjia" is to promote patriotism, not to investigate whether the Japanese poisoned Huo Yuanjia, and the current debate is a bit upside down.
If that episode is deleted, the movie can still promote patriotism.
But because of the insistence on not deleting that episode, the movie was banned and could not promote the patriotic spirit, so the movie lost its meaning, which is a pity.
He understands and appreciates Lin Zixuan's persistence, but sometimes compromises are needed to achieve the goal.
He could intervene to mediate, delete the part where the Japanese doctor delivers medicine, and let the film continue to be screened.
Sun Zhongshan liked the song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall", and he found a record and listened to it, so that the Chinese nation could awaken as soon as possible, drive out the great powers of all countries, and build a rich and powerful country.
This is consistent with his ideals, so he thinks that Lin Zixuan is a member who can be fought for.
Dinner is simple, but it's healthy.
Sun Zhongshan studied medicine in his early years, and he was more particular about nutritional matching, and his meals were inclined to be clean and delicious.
After dinner, he chatted with Lin Zixuan in the study for half an hour, hoping that Lin Zixuan could do more for the country, write some good articles, and make some patriotic movies.
Lin Zixuan agreed one by one.
Regarding the deletion of the clip of the Japanese doctor in "The Hero of Jinmen", Lin Zixuan did not insist so much, anyway, the movie has been screened for a month and a half, and everything that should be seen has been seen.
If Sun Zhongshan is willing to mediate, it is also acceptable to let the movie not be banned.
