Chapter 27: Writing Prose

Why did Wang Defu not get close to the way of literature in his previous life?

The most important reason, of course, is that he has limited talent, otherwise people with top writing talents, no matter what era they are in, can come out.

The second is the environmental problem, pure literature has declined, not many people are willing to read works with connotation and thought-provoking, after all, life has been so heavy, free time should be used to relax, so even if it is reading, I prefer to read works that make people relaxed, happy, and interesting.

Finally, it is Wang Defu's own reasons, he also needs to make money to support himself, and there are a lot of trivial things to be a teacher, so he can't devote himself to literary creation at all, and when he thinks of what he writes, in addition to circulating in his own small circle, ordinary readers don't even bother to look at it, and his creative enthusiasm will naturally be hit.

As for the fact that he is not from a cultural circle, there are no media resources to praise him, and so on, making him famous at a young age like some young adult literature writers, it is all a trivial thing, which can be classified as the primary reason - limited talent.

Wang Defu is very envious of the kind of top-talented authors, but he also feels that if he uses his life to do the thing of "writing" devoutly, maybe in the end his achievements will not be worse than those top-talented authors.

And it was not until he traveled to this era and merged with the soul in this body that he understood what a supreme pleasure it was to have a top-notch writing talent, and that the originally naughty and uncontrollable words were trained by him to be obedient under his pen, and the sentences composed of them had an incomparable beauty.

Perhaps because the original owner of this body himself studied philosophy, when he put pen to paper, his own philosophical thoughts will naturally be incorporated into the article, which makes the work more full of connotation and long-lasting meaning.

Wang Defu used such a top writing talent to write the work "Love and Sex", which can be said to be a bit tyrannical, just like asking the best literary film director to make an erotic tertiary film...... Of course, the tertiary film made by such a director must have something deeper.

But this is indeed forced by life, and in the process of writing this work, he is not completely without gains, at least he found that after experiencing a time travel and soul fusion, he has a writing talent that he couldn't achieve in his previous life, so he should practice writing with such a work first.

And at the same time with this talent, he has not forgotten his original intention, he will spend his whole life devoted to "writing", coupled with the not so fast pace of life in this era, tolerance for pure literature, all of which have created extremely favorable conditions for Wang Defu to prove the way of literature and become a great writer.

Even if his works may only be shelved a hundred years later, or reduced to the props of some literary and artistic youths, or hated by students who study literature and philosophy, as long as they can be read by readers who really like his works, and let them gain something and help their lives, he feels that it is enough.

This feast invited by Ling Jingsu was finally coming to an end, and Wang Defu, who had drunk a lot of plum wine, was also a little drunk, after all, the stamina of plum wine was relatively sufficient, but he was not like Du Shuhuan, his face was flushed after the wine surged.

Wang Defu's cheeks were only slightly red, but it made his overly handsome cheeks cute, making the two ladies present feel that having dinner with a man like Wang Defu was quite pleasing to the eye and in a happy mood.

Before the end of the dinner, Ding Mei was bold again and asked for Wang Defu's contact address, saying that she not only likes literature, but is also interested in philosophy, so if she has any philosophical questions, she can write to Wang Defu for advice.

Wang Defu did not refuse her, he never hesitated to point out to the lost girl, maybe he has a good teacher side in his bones, he has lofty ambitions, and thinks that one day, he can become a great mentor for all mankind.

But to become a great teacher, of course, it is not achieved overnight, but it is necessary to accumulate little by little in ordinary times.

It's just that he didn't refuse Ding Mei's matter, which made Ling Jingsu, who was originally in a good mood, unhappy again, but she thought that she not only had Wang Defu's contact address, but also the phone number of the other party's dormitory and residence, so she felt that she was better.

Of course, there is no mobile phone in this era, but for people with slightly better family backgrounds, landlines are still available, but most people don't make long-distance calls, and the phone bill is too terrifying, so it's better to take a telegram, or the most money-saving way is to write a letter.

Ding Mei's family background is not very good, it is a small intellectual family, living in the city, her parents are still relatively open-minded, otherwise she would not have sent her to the Women's Normal University, and after graduation, she will go to the girls' school to be a teacher, it is still very stable, and if she wants to marry, she will naturally marry those men who are more open-minded, but in this society, there are still many men who feel that women should not go out to work after getting married, and they should just teach their husbands and children at home.

Ding Mei has long been accustomed to writing letters to people, she even has several pen pals from afar, and she has never even met in person, this kind of pen pal is probably equivalent to netizens in later generations, but the transportation in later generations is developed, and it is not difficult to meet netizens.

However, for people with literary and artistic feelings, there may be a few pen pals who will never be able to meet in their lives, but they can make friends, which is a rather romantic thing.

This is also the romantic feeling that can only be found in the era of underdeveloped communication.

As soon as Wang Defu and a few people came out of the restaurant, they found that it was snowing in the sky, which was probably the first snow in Suzhou, and it was already December, and the pace of harsh winter was getting closer and closer.

The group said goodbye, Du Shuhuan felt that he and Wang Defu not only hit it off at first sight, but now after a meal, he only felt that the relationship with the other party was better, so that he personally sent Wang Defu to the rickshaw and gave Wang Defu the fare in advance.

Wang Defu is a person who will repay kindness, Du Shuhuan originally had the grace of knowing him, and now he is so polite, if he has the opportunity to repay the other party in the future, he will definitely repay it.

Of course, it was impossible to go back to school so late, and the place where he and his sister lived together, and there was silence along the way, looking at the light snow falling in the sky, he had an urge to write, not a novel, of course, but a prose full of beauty and philosophy.
