042. Shocking the nation
Hearing that Zhao Taidou finally told the truth, Xi Wendian covered his face very tiredly.
"Mr. Zhao, in this way, our Nobel Prize in China ......"
He wanted to speak, but he stopped.
Zhao Taedou patted him on the shoulder.
It's all in plain sight.
The rules for awarding the Nobel Prize are very strict.
In both cases, they will not present the award.
One: Dead people don't receive awards.
Second: those who have already won the Nobel Prize will not be awarded again.
Albert Einstein, for example, never won an award for his theory of relativity.
He won the award for the photoelectric effect.
Later, even though the theory of relativity was slowly proven to be correct, the Nobel Prize was not reissued to him again.
The Nobel Prize is a lifetime honor, and it is absolutely impossible to award it to the same person twice.
That's why, he had been blocking Zhao Taidou before and preventing him from telling the truth.
What would have happened if the Nobel Prize jury had known the truth?
Thinking of this, Xi Wendian wanted to scold.
Liu Chenmin's gang didn't know how big the basket he had poked!
In the studio, Gao Xiaobai's fat body just got up from the floor, straightened the chair, and said sweaty:
"It's a slippery floor."
Jupiter asked curiously: "Teacher Yu, Teacher Gao, do you know all the people on these three new Nobel Prize certificates?" ”
Yu Hua smiled bitterly: "It's not just acquaintance, haven't you read "Norwegian Wood"? Haven't read The Catcher in the Rye? ”
Jupiter exclaimed, "Ah, I have read it, but I usually don't read books by author's name......"
Yu Hua explains: "'Norwegian Wood' is the work of Haruki Kawabata, and 'The Catcher in the Rye' is the work of Hemingway Faulkner. ”
Jupiter said, "I know when you say that, but what about the other one?" It's called ...... Dolstewski's. ”
Yu Hua said: "That, that one is even more heavyweight." ”
Yu Hua didn't say much, and seemed to be still immersed in shock, so Jupiter turned his head and asked Gao Xiaobai:
"Mr. Gao, can you give the audience ...... By the way, tell me about it too? ”
Gao Xiaobai wiped the sweat on his head and said, "Okay, I'll give you a brief introduction." In fact, these people are all famous, and I just make some knowledge supplements for audiences who don't know each other. ”
"Whom first? Let's start with Hemingway Faulkner, who is linked to García Borges. ”
"When we talked about García Borges earlier, we mentioned that he pioneered magical realism, and One Hundred Years of Solitude is a great book of magical realism."
In fact, he has predecessors, and this context is obvious, and in the history of literature, many literary researchers have discussed, where did García Borges get his inspiration? It was from Hemingway Faulkner. ”
"Nine years ago, a novel that caused a sensation in the literary world was born, and the name of the book is called "The Noise and the Tumult".
Jupiter's expression was like saying that she hadn't heard the book.
Gao Xiaobai said: "It's normal not to have heard of it, this book is extremely obscure for ordinary people, but its narrative technique shocked all writers around the world - can you still write like this?!" That's basically what everyone thought at the time. ”
Jupiter wondered, "What's so peculiar about the narrative?" ”
Gao Xiaobai said: "I won't get an axe at this point, let Teacher Yu Hua talk about it." ”
Jupiter turned his head to Yu Hua, and Yu Hua said slowly:
"Didn't I say that before? I have two teachers, one of whom is García Borges. ”
"The other one is Hemingway Faulkner?" Jupiter asked.
"Yes," Yu Hua said with a smile, "the other is Hemingway Faulkner." ”
He folded his arms and said, "Actually, literature is a thing that spirals up from the shoulders of predecessors, and no one is born to write, and it must rely on imitating others."
"Imitate others first, then go out of your own way, and then try to surpass. This process of transcendence is like wrestling with a teacher. ”
"Some people just win and go their own way. Some people are fighting all the time. Yu Hua said, "You are like Mo Yu, he has been fighting García Borges, and me, for example, has been fighting Hemingway Faulkner." ”
Jupiter understood and asked, "You and Teacher Mo are already ceiling-level figures in the Chinese literary world, can't you get out of the shadow of your predecessors?" ”
Yu Hua smiled and said, "If you don't write a book, you won't be able to understand the fear of being dominated by them." ”
After speaking, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and changed his words: "It's wrong, it's not 'them', it's 'him'!" ”
Jupiter lost his mind for a moment.
Hearing so much about them, she couldn't imagine that so many cattle people turned out to be the same person.
Gao Xiaobai opened the fan and said on the side: "Hemingway Faulkner, there is also a book that is very popular among niche literary and artistic youth-"The Great Gatsby". ”
Jupiter nodded: "Yes, yes, I've heard of it, this is also what he wrote?" ”
"It's him. Many people know about this book from "Norwegian Wood", but they didn't expect that it was written by one person. ”
Speaking of this, he shook his head and continued: "He also wrote a book, which may be known to junior high school and high school students in recent years, "The Old Man and the Sea". ”
Jupiter clapped his hands and said, "Oh! I also know this, and it's in the textbook! ”
Yu Hua interjected: "Just this book is enough for him to win the Nobel Prize once." ”
Jupiter glared: "This book is so powerful?" ”
On the screen, a barrage floated by:
"I watched "The Old Man and the Sea" and cried ......"
"Yes, yes, I think it's very good, when I was in Chinese class, the teacher talked about other texts, I first turned to the section of "The Old Man and the Sea", but I accidentally finished reading it......"
"I didn't feel it when I watched "The Old Man and the Sea", and I cried when I watched "The Catcher in the Rye"."
"Watching "The Catcher in the Rye" and watching it cry +1"
……
After sighing, Gao Xiaobai continued to popularize science:
"As I said earlier, García Borges is a cultural phenomenon in the United States, and if you don't know him, you're embarrassed to say that you're cultural.
"Actually, it's a bit exaggerated, in the United States, if you don't know García Borges, there is actually room for survival, but if you say that you don't know Hemingway Faulkner, then it's a big deal, and you can just expel your nationality on the spot.
"Hemingway Faulkner, for a long time, was assumed to be an American. Because most of what he tells is American stories.
"In the United States, both in the literary world and among the people, he has set off a monstrous wave - no exaggeration, only the word monstrous wave can be described.
Half of the young people in the United States hold his "Catcher in the Rye" in their hands, imitating the protagonist in the book and imitating the protagonist's attitude towards life.
"This book is also listed as a 'must-read list for middle school students in the United States', recommended by all schools and parents, and known by all young Americans.
"Okay, half of the young people are holding The Catcher in the Rye, but what about the other half? Holding "On the Road" in his hand.
After the publication of the book "On the Road", it drove hundreds of millions of sales of jeans and coffee machines, deceived countless American young people to start a wandering career, and the whole United States ran around.
"That's right, this book was also written by Hemingway Faulkner.
"A copy of 'On the Road' and a copy of 'The Catcher in the Rye' together built the hippie culture that is still popular in the United States today."
Yu Hua said: "He also wrote "The Noise and the Commotion", "When I was dying", "The Snow of Kilimanjaro", "Absalom! Absalom! 》…… These books are as powerful as a nuclear bomb in the literary world. ”
Gao Xiaobai folded his fingers and concluded: "Young people worship him, the literary world admires him, and the cultural world respects him, but in the United States, Hemingway Faulkner's status can only be described as 'incomparable'!" ”
With that, he wiped his sweat again.
According to his thoughts, this kind of person who "shocked the whole United States" cannot be Chinese.
But García Borges was slapped in the face so badly just now, he doesn't dare to jump to conclusions now.
Jupiter took a deep breath: "That...... What will happen now when it is revealed that he is actually Chinese? ”
Gao Xiaobai was still smiling, and Yu Hua showed a dark smile on his face: "God knows, it's probably shocking the whole United States again." ”
Gao Xiaobai didn't want to talk about this topic, so he changed his words and said: "Not to mention the United States, if this matter is exposed today, the Japanese and Russians will definitely collapse even more." ”
Jupiter asked, "What do you say?" ”
