Chapter 181: A Different Lin Zixuan
The fundraiser in Shanghai's cultural circles came to an odd end.
Lin Zixuan's last speech drew an imperfect end to the fundraiser, but it was difficult for others to say anything, after all, Lin Zixuan still donated books worth 10,000 yuan.
At least in terms of the amount, it is still very large, and it is impossible to fault his statement.
But all the participants felt weird, this Lin Zixuan was really unpredictable.
Some people think that Lin Zixuan is stupid for writing novels, and he doesn't understand world affairs, he really thinks that literature can save the victims!
What the victims need is food, not literature.
Some people think that Lin Zixuan is very shrewd, and Shen Zhifang of the World Book Company holds this point of view, Lin Zixuan can say a stingy thing so noblely, it is definitely an example worth learning from him.
Don't you just don't want to donate, what kind of literature is it!
Of course, he would like to thank Lin Zixuan for coming up with this method, saving him a sum of money, and clearing the inventory by the way.
However, people who are really close to Lin Zixuan will never think so, they can feel Lin Zixuan's rejection of Japan.
As a veteran newspaper worker, Zhou Shoujuan is very interested in this matter.
In daily life, Lin Zixuan is a very friendly and generous person, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is kind and generous, but once it comes to Japan, he is like a different person.
"Jinmen Hero Huo Yuanjia" can be said to be for the movie at that time, but Lin Zixuan showed his determination not to give in.
If Sun Zhongshan hadn't made peace with him, things might have gotten bigger and bigger.
and Lin Zixuan was too active in the matter of "breaking off diplomatic relations with Japan".
Zhou Shoujuan thought that he knew Lin Zixuan, and he knew that Lin Zixuan did not like to participate in political activities. There is a kind of arrogance and loftiness of literati, so Lin Zixuan's performance in "breaking off diplomatic relations with Japan" is too abnormal.
This donation is even more indicative of Lin Zixuan's dislike for Japan.
In this situation of the mobilization of the whole society. Even if you don't want to donate, be a little more interesting. Donate 500 or 1,000 yuan, and no one will say anything.
But Lin Zixuan went up and said some high-sounding words and donated 10,000 yuan of books, which was unusual.
Those who think Lin Zixuan is a fool are fools themselves.
Zhou Shoujuan watched Lin Zixuan's rise step by step, how many people can do it at Lin Zixuan's age, although Lin Zixuan used the strength of his family, most of them were obtained by his own hard work.
Will such a person be ignorant of the affairs of the world?
Therefore, this incident shows Lin Zixuan's dissatisfaction, and Zhou Shoujuan feels that this is Lin Zixuan's protest in a literati way.
But he didn't understand why Lin Zixuan hated Japan so much.
True. Japan occupies China's Lushun and Dalian, and the Chinese should be disgusted with Japan, but other countries also occupy China's territory, why did Lin Zixuan target Japan alone?
Zhou Shoujuan pondered this matter and was puzzled.
He expanded the scope and thought about it, and suddenly found that very few people around Lin Zixuan had studied in Japan, or it was difficult for people related to Japan to enter Lin Zixuan's inner circle.
Lin Zixuan deliberately alienated this kind of people, is it because of the difference in educational background, or his own personal habits?
Ultimately. Zhou Shoujuan came to a conclusion that Lin Zixuan was extremely hostile to Japan in his heart.
This matter is not a secret in Lin Zixuan's circle, taking Ouyang Yuqian and Hong Shen as examples.
Ouyang Yuqian returned from studying in Japan, and Hong Shen returned from studying in the United States. Lin Zixuan's attitude towards the two looks the same, but in fact there is a big difference.
Lin Zixuan and Ouyang Yuqian only collaborated on one "Thunderstorm", and then they became friends.
And he and Hong Shen not only collaborated on "Sunrise". also asked Hong Shen to shoot a movie, and asked Hong Shen to give lessons to the actors. It can be said that it is a strong support, so that Hong Shen has a place in Shanghai's cultural circle in a short period of time.
Lin Zixuan may not have realized this himself. It's just his knee-jerk behavior.
However, if there are scholars who study Lin Zixuan in the future, they will definitely attribute this behavior to their educational background, Lin Zixuan has an educational background in Europe and the United States, and is naturally close to people studying in Europe and the United States.
There are a lot of propaganda reports in the newspapers on the fundraising of the Shanghai cultural circles, and these people are all engaged in culture, so they naturally have to make enough noise, but these reports are very clever to avoid Lin Zixuan's speech.
There is nothing wrong with this statement, but it is a bit out of place and out of tune with the general environment at this time.
It's good to talk about these things in private, and everyone who doesn't need to make trouble knows about it.
However, the more gossip spreads, the faster the gossip represents privacy and gossip, and coupled with Lin Zixuan's celebrity effect, his statement quickly spread all over Shanghai.
Some ridiculed, some doubted, and some scolded absurdity......
There are also people who really believe Lin Zixuan's speech, thinking that this is the compassionate heart of a literary scholar, which is worthy of admiration.
For such a simple person, Lin Zixuan can only tell him that the earth is too dangerous, you should go back to Mars.
Lin Zixuan ignored other people's discussions, and he was discussing the matter of increasing the printing of books in the peaceful ban of Asia.
The core area of the Great Kanto Earthquake was near Tokyo, and according to news reports, the Tokyo area suffered heavy damage.
As a result, Japan's publishing industry will definitely be paralyzed, and it will not be easy to rebuild, so take this opportunity to ship books over and you don't want free things.
This is a kind donation from us, do you still have to review it, and do you still want to reject it?
Then why don't you refuse rice and flour?
Lin Zixuan wants to print 10,000 copies of "Snow Country", plus some new literary books that cannot be sold, and package them to Japan, as for how Japan will deal with it, he will continue to pay attention.
If Japan dares to burn it or throw it away, then he will never let go of this opportunity to criticize Japan.
Lin Zixuan also plans to cooperate with other publishing houses to ship books to Japan, even if it is his own charter ship, it doesn't matter, he is not short of money.
In fact, there is no need for him to contact him, many publishing houses have this kind of plan.
Although some large publishing houses have deep pockets and disdain Lin Zixuan's little tricks, there are also bookstores that agree with Lin Zixuan's approach, and we give Chinese culture to Japan, which is a cultural exchange between the two countries, which is extremely meaningful in this special period.
As a result, more than a dozen bookstores banded together to clean up the inventory and ship it all to Japan.
Among the rice and flour, these books are so prominent that many people ignore them.
The newspapers in Shanghai deliberately avoided this incident, because they did not know how to report it, and only foreign-language newspapers did not need to avoid it, and recorded the incident, believing it to be a symbol of cultural exchanges between China and Japan.
Lin Zixuan's speech is also considered to be a Chinese writer's humanistic concern for the victims of the Japanese disaster.
Westerners even use psychology to explain Lin Zixuan's words, believing that psychological counseling for disaster victims is very important, which is a blind spot in the world's disaster relief work and needs to be paid attention to.
Lin Zixuan took this newspaper and felt that it was still a foreigner who understood the situation and knew that the victims needed psychological counseling.
In any case, through this incident, the people of Shanghai realized a different Lin Zixuan. (To be continued.) )
