Chapter 361: In full swing

With the establishment of the four major projects, in the office building of the Wenzhen Group, the corresponding offices were also established.

For example, Ye Luo's "Ye's Literary Writing Project" has set up a "Ye's Literature Office", and has a director and two deputy directors.

As the core figure of this project, Ye Luo is not only the general person in charge of the project, but also the director of the office. The post of deputy director naturally fell to Li Wenzheng, chairman of the Ancient Literature Association, and Shao Xinzhong, chairman of the New Literature Association.

All the work related to Yip's literary writing is arranged by the office.

In the past, work such as publishing and publicity was also handed over to these two associations. In particular, the Ancient Literature Association is called the big housekeeper of Ye Luo by people in the industry.

But at that time, it was more of a partnership between the two. But now the establishment of the "Yip's Literary Project" has turned the original cooperative relationship into a working relationship on the surface.

It can be said that now Ye Luo is asking the Ancient Literature Association or the New Literature Association to do something, which is completely justified. Even, if Ye Luo's arrangement is not done well, it can be held accountable.

After all, this is a national-level cultural project, and there is no room for error.

But one thing to say, Ye Luo originally thought that after having these helpers, he would definitely publish his books much faster.

But the actual situation is completely different from what he thought.

Since Ye Luo handed over the outline, ideas, creative blueprint and other materials of "The Sacred Biography of Tang Poetry" to Li Wenzheng, Li Wenzheng has indeed gathered a large number of relevant experts and scholars, and set up a special "Sacred Biography of Tang Poetry" writing team to create together.

However, these people are not Ye Luo after all.

Although there are many people, they are quite timid when they write books.

Or, it can't be said that they are timid, but rather too cautious and rigorous.

Not to mention every article and chapter, even every line and every sentence, these scholars and professors have to consider it for a while and choose the words that best meet Ye Luo's requirements before they dare to write it.

Even, when I met the plot before and after Du Fu wrote the poem, everyone had to get together for a meeting and discuss it.

In addition, everyone is an ordinary person, far from the speed of Ye Luo's writing.

Therefore, compared to Ye Luo's speed of writing books, the situation of writing a "Biography of Tang Poets and Immortals" in a month will not appear at all.

As far as the current writing speed of the "Tang Poetry and Sacred Biography" writing team is concerned, let alone a month, it would be good to be able to write it within three months.

Seeing that this was the case, Ye Luo simply sorted out the remaining two books of the "Ye Tang Series".

Yes, in Ye Luo's original conception, in addition to this "The Sacred Biography of Tang Poetry", there are only two books left in the entire "Ye Tang Series".

However, these two books Ye Luo doesn't want to continue to write a single protagonist.

Instead, you have to write the group portrait directly.

"The Biography of the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty".

"The Biography of Li Du in the Late Tang Dynasty".

Ye Luo once thought about whether to publish a book according to the original rhythm at this point in time in the early Tang Dynasty, but after thinking about it, Ye Luo finally decided to write a joint biography.

It's not that Wang Bo, Yang Jiong, Lu Zhaolin, and Luo Bin Wang are not worthy of writing separate biographies, but compared with Li Bai, Du Fu, and Bai Juyi, they are still somewhat less meaningful.

But if these four people are put together to write a joint biography, then the value of this book can definitely be called the first place in the first edition of the "Ye Tang Series"!

Wang Bo's "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng".

Yang Jiong's "From the Army".

Lu Zhaolin's "Ancient Meaning of Chang'an".

Luo Bing Wang's "Yu Yishui Gives Away".

These are all masterpieces in the literary world.

In particular, Wang Bo's "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" is known as the existence of "the first prose of the ages".

In the field of punwen, "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" is a well-deserved ceiling. is not only the leader of the Tang Dynasty, but also a unique existence in the entire history.

Of course, like other books, this "Biography of the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty" is not only the four of them, but also involves many literati of the early Tang Dynasty.

For example, Chen Ziang, who is known as the "poetic bone", is also one of the bright stars in the early Tang Dynasty.

"I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the ones who come after. Thinking of the world and the world, I was alone and wept. ”

In such a poem, it is impossible for the leaves to fall and make it disappear.

It can be said that in Ye Luo's conception, this "Biography of the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty" revolves around the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty, but it includes a masterpiece in the literary world of the entire Early Tang Dynasty.

Its workload is even greater than that of "The Biography of the Poet Immortal" and "The Biography of the Poet".

In terms of workload, it can be compared with it, and it is estimated that there is another "Biography of Li Du in the Late Tang Dynasty".

These two books, to some extent, have the same internal logic and specifications.

The former writes about the early Tang Dynasty, and the latter writes about the late Tang Dynasty.

Li Shangyin, Du Mu.

As the protagonist of this book, it naturally occupies the largest space. But in subsequent reprints, it will inevitably be extended to other poets in this era.

Almost all of these have been taken into account.

After he handed over the outlines and other materials of these two books to Li Wenzheng, even Chairman Li, who was accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, unconsciously tightened his heart.

"Teacher Ye, is this a little too anxious? The "Poetry Biography" here has just written the beginning. Li Wenzheng is both happy and nervous now, and there is a feeling of being at a loss all over his body.

Ye Luo was much calmer, "It's okay, don't worry, you can take your time." By the way, there is not enough manpower in this area, so you can continue to recruit for the table. ”

As a national-level cultural project, if they want to recruit people, it is too simple.

At present, in the "Poetry and Sacred Biography" writing group set up under their project, in addition to these masters of the Ancient Literature Association, there are also some professors and experts in ancient literature who have been summoned from other universities. There are even many scholars and professors who study Tang history involved. It is no exaggeration to say that this is definitely a big project that consumes a lot of manpower, financial resources and time.

And that's just a book.

In the face of the two books that Ye Luo gave, to say that there is no pressure at all, it must be nonsense.

But Li Wenzheng and their power is now much greater than in the past, and there are not enough manpower, so they directly write a report, draw up a list of candidates, and report it to Ye Luo, the general person in charge, as long as Ye Luo signs it, and sends it to Zhang Deputy Head of the Wenzhen Group for review, almost all of them can be approved.

That's the priority of the national project.

Individuals and units that are requisitioned must unconditionally cooperate and obey, and are not allowed to refuse or shirk for any reason.

"I'll try my best."

Li Wenzheng nodded, if you look at it from the side of the Ancient Literature Association, he can be regarded as the leader of Ye Luo. But the reality now is that Ye Luo has become his top boss.

Ye Luo didn't say much, he had been friends with Chairman Li Wenzheng for so long, and he also knew what kind of person Chairman Li was. He is very responsible and dedicated to doing things, and he is indeed capable, and he is very relieved to hand over the follow-up writing work of Ye Tang's series to him.

As one of the two deputy directors, Chairman Shao Xinzhong, after seeing the heat of the Ancient Literature Association again, he couldn't sit still.

"Director Ye, Chairman Li and their side are too busy, and we still have no work here, can you see if you can also arrange arrangements for us?" Shao Xinzhong really couldn't wait, so he found Ye Luo directly.

In fact, this project was originally called the "Ye's Datang Writing Project", and the original idea of the Wenzhen Group was to help Ye Luo complete the "Ye Tang Series" as soon as possible. The reason why it became the "Ye's Literary Writing Project" when it was officially announced was completely promoted by Shao Xinzhong, the chairman of the New Literature Association.

Don't look at it, it's just two words that have changed, but the coverage of the entire project has expanded countless times. Directly from the Ye Tang series, it has become all of Ye Luo's literary creations. It can be said that this has also directly improved Ye Luo's status and influence in the entire literary history.

Of course, Shao Xinzhong must have gone for Ye Luo's modern literary works.

This time, in the face of Shao Xinzhong's request, Ye Luo did not refuse.

After he returned home, he began to compile a list of writers in the Republic of China series.

Shen Congwen.

Lao She.

Lin Yutang.

Xu Zhimo.

Yu Dafu.

Zhang ailing.

Wait a minute.

One thing to say, the Republic of China period is definitely an era where masters gather.

The big writers who can count the numbers are really a big handful.

However, there are not many people who can really make Ye Luo willing to directly list the books.

For example, Xu Zhimo, Zhang Ailing and others, although they were also brilliant writers and famous writers during the Republic of China, Ye Luo didn't want to write a biography for them alone.

What Ye Luo wants is a writer like Mr. Lu Xun, who really has the backbone of modern Chinese literature.

Writers who were able to demonstrate the mission and significance of the literati in that special era!

Ye Luo thought about it and finally determined Mr. Lao She and Mr. Yu Dafu.

Of course, people like Mr. Qian Zhongshu and others can also write, but Ye Luo didn't take it out all at once.

After all, the amount of work in the creation of the Republic of China series is huge, which is simply incomparable to the Ye Tang series.

The number of words in "The Biography of Tang Poets and Immortals" is already the largest in the entire Ye Tang series, but compared with "The Biography of Mr. Lu Xun", it is still not enough to watch.

After all, Mr. Lu Xun's works are millions of words!

Therefore, Ye Luo didn't give them too much character material.

"The Biography of Mr. Lao She".

"The Biography of Mr. Yu Dafu".

After seeing the outlines and various materials of these two books, Shao Xinzhong was extremely excited.

"Teacher Ye, don't worry, we in the modern literary world will definitely write these two books for you without flaws!" Shao Xinzhong didn't have the slightest idea of the chairman of the association, and directly patted his chest with Ye Luo and promised.

It's no wonder that he is too excited, mainly because they are looking forward to the follow-up of the "Republic of China series", which is too long!

Seeing that the Ancient Literature Association is thriving, it is strange that they are not in a hurry.

"Don't read just two books, but there's a lot of work here."

Ye Luo instructed, "I suggest that your side, after setting up a special working group, should be further subdivided below to screen out those who are suitable for writing the main books, and which people are suitable for writing the works written by the protagonists in the books." These two books are not the same as Ye Tang's side, and the works involved in the books are the same huge and complex, so you must not be careless. ”

"Mr. Ye, you can rest assured about this, I have read "The Biography of Mr. Lu Xun" many times and know what effect you want."

As he spoke, Shao Xinzhong looked at the outline given by Ye Luo in person.

The attention was mainly focused on the works of Lao She and Yu Dafu, "Lao She wrote "Four Generations in the Same Hall", "Camel Xiangzi", and "Teahouse"...... Yu Dafu has "Sinking" and "Autumn in the Old Capital...... Fortunately, compared to Mr. Lu Xun, this is less. ”

Shao Xinzhong smiled, his face full of confidence.

Ye Luo felt a little helpless in his heart, but his face was silent, "I hope you can write well." ”

He is not afraid that they will not be able to write the two books "The Biography of Mr. Lao She", but he is worried that they will not be able to write the charm of the original works such as "Camel Xiangzi" and "Teahouse"!

"If it doesn't work, I'll write it myself." Ye Luo thought to himself, although it was a little troublesome, it was definitely much easier than before.

Speaking of which, this is also due to Ye Luo's unique creative style.

When someone else writes a book, they just write a book.

But Ye Luo's books all have "books within books", and these "books within books" are the essence of this work.

But if Ye Luo directly gave up the skin on the outside and wrote directly about the classic works of Lu Xun and Lao She, he would definitely not have the corresponding historical environment because of the creative background, and he would inevitably not be able to show the brilliance of these works.

This is also what Ye Luo does not want to see.

If that's the case, then Ye Luo would rather not write.

……

Under Ye Luo's arrangement, the "Ye's Literary Writing Engineering Group" has become larger and larger, and everyone and all the writing teams are also busy working.

The situation is broadly the same for the other three engineering groups.

In addition to gathering a large number of history professors in related majors, the people of the "Qing History Manuscript" compilation engineering team also found many descendants of the Qing court nobles at that time...... Because the Qing Dynasty is not too far from the present time, there is a lot of information that can be collected, and there are even a lot of oral histories, and the workload is also very complex.

The "Chinese Civilization Exploration Project" is also a cultural project in history, and the people selected by their engineering team are also experts in history, but unlike the "History of the Qing Dynasty", they have a large number of archaeologists on their side. These people, who have hardly ever been in the office, are either digging graves or on their way. So far, the progress has been quite smooth.

Among these four major projects, if it is not smooth, it is estimated that it will be the "five one project".

Originally, the "Five One Project" set by the Wenzhen Group included five aspects: a good drama work, a good TV drama work, a good film work, a good book (limited to social sciences), and a good theoretical article (limited to social sciences).

But after the workshop, the official version was announced, with a good song and a good radio drama.

Although the content has been expanded to seven aspects, the name of the project is still called "Five One Project".

And the creation of these seven aspects is also distributed to different units.

Some units are progressing well, but others are directly worried.

For example, Huaxia TV's TV drama channel, which is responsible for creating "a good TV drama work".
