The release of the book "War and Peace" made a lot of noise in China. At the same time, even in the international arena, it has made a certain reputation. Especially in the international literary circle, this kind of circle, which pays more attention to literary trends, has attracted much attention.

Japanese literary circles.

"Have you read Ye Luojun's "War and Peace"?"

"Looked."

"International, war, humanitarianism, preaching peace, these factors are taken together, this is the rhythm of preparing to attack the Johnson Prize for Literature."

"At the moment, it looks like that's how it should be prepared."

"Hehe, Huaxia is really unavailable. is targeted by the West, so you can only let Ye Luo come out and carry the banner? Is there no one else? ”

"The Chinese literary world is really a waste, and it seems that a leaf is worthy of a literary master."

"In today's Chinese literary world, if there are no leaves, it will be a desert."

"But on the contrary, people just have leaves. No amount of words can change this fact? In my opinion, Ye Luojun is one of the best great writers in the current literary world! Not just in China, but all over the world! ”

"Well, although I don't like Huaxia, I agree with this statement."

In today's Japanese literary circles, the hostility towards the Chinese literary circles has not decreased. However, since the last time they returned with a feather, after seeing Ye Luo's strength, their attitude towards Ye Luo has changed drastically.

It is estimated that Ye Luo himself does not know that he is now one of the most popular and influential writers in Japan. Even, the whole country of Japan

The literary world has praised him to the same height as Akiyama Minorukata.

You must know that this Minoru Akiyama is a former winner of the Johnson Literary Award, and has the reputation of "living legend" in Japan, which can be called the anchor of the Japanese literary circle.

Last time, he personally led a team to visit China. As a result, he was drunk by Ye Luo and lost completely. In the end, he returned to Japan with the translations of Ye Luo's works.

It is precisely because of this that Ye Luo unconsciously became famous in Japan.

However, this time Akiyama Minoru is not very optimistic about Ye Luo, "His book "War and Peace" is very well written, and the artistic content is very high. However, if you want to attack the Johnson Prize for Literature, it is still unrealistic. This award is too difficult for Huaxia. However, if you want to get a nomination, it shouldn't be a big problem. He also knows how the Western literary world squeezes out and suppresses the Chinese side, but in his opinion, no matter how much the Western literary world wants to kill Chinese literature, it will not dare to engage in shady scenes so blatantly, right?

……

The literary world of the United States.

Some homes are also discussing.

"Paul, have you read that book of War and Peace?"

"Huh? Why do you ask this question too? ”

"What do you mean? Anyone else asked? ”

"Well, you're the fifth to ask me."

"Then it seems that this book is really well written, and everyone has read it."

"Yes, the depth of thought and the writing of this book are first-class, and I don't think our country's contemporary literary circles can write such works. The strength of the Russians in literature is still very strong. I think this year's Johnson Prize for Literature should be his. ”

"Well, Paul, I think you might be getting one thing wrong."

"Huh? What's up? ”

"The author of this book "War and Peace" is called Ye Luo, and he is not Russian, but a Chinese."

"What? Chinese people? Isn't this book about Russian history? How to ......"

"It's a Russian historical background, but the author is really a real Chinese. Moreover, it is a very well-known home in Huaxia. ”

"Oh my God! This book turned out to be written by a Chinese? ”

It's not just that he doesn't believe it, there are too many rice countries that feel unbelievable.

"If that's the case, then the book can't win the award."

"Yes."

"It's a pity."

"No way, who made him a Huaxia person?"

Written by a Chinese person, no matter how good the writing is, he must not be allowed to win an award!

This is political correctness!

Of course, people don't care about that.

After the publication of "War and Peace", it was quickly discovered by readers, and many readers from all over the world began to help promote it spontaneously after reading it.

“Oh， my god！ War and Peace is one of the best books I've read in recent years. My friend, you must take a look. A netizen from 米国 shared.

"Yes, I also think this book 'War and Peace' is very well written." Indian netizens are rare and unintimidating.

"I've already recommended it to my classmates."

"On our side, the book is sold out."

"So many people are watching? I thought that only us Japanese people liked his works. Ye Luo, the author, is very powerful, he has written many very wonderful books. ”

"War and Peace! Be sure to check it out! A netizen from Central Asia burst into tears, "We have been devastated by war for a long time. I urgently ask to print more in Central Asia! ”

"We don't have enough Russian books! I didn't buy it at all, where did the books go? ”

"The problem of the publishing house is that it is estimated that foreign books are the first to be published, and they dare not risk printing more. Who would have thought that a book written by a foreigner could be so popular? I reckon publishers are stepping up printing by now. ”

"Wait a minute! Russia? Foreigner? This book "War and Peace" was not written by you Russians? ”

"Who said it was we Russians who wrote it? Have you seen the Russians in the row of leaves? ”

"The author is Chinese."

"Awesome!"

"I really can't imagine that there can be such a level of writers in China."

"Maybe you don't know much, but the level of Chinese literature is actually very high."

Among readers, this book "War and Peace" has gained a high degree of circulation. Ye Luo, the author, also went international for the first time with this book, and was known to readers in many countries.

……

On the first day, "War and Peace" suddenly appeared, and it did not attract much attention.

The next day, the book was flooded with advertisements, and people gradually became curious.

On the third day, many people were curious and tried to buy it and read it at home.

On the fourth day, there was a lot of discussion on the Internet.

On the fifth day, the topic of "War and Peace" went viral.

On the sixth day, the physical book was on sale!

On the seventh day, War and Peace swept the global literary market.

For a whole week after its debut, "War and Peace" exploded worldwide!

Basically, in various countries and regions, all of them are selling crazy!

Not to mention Huaxia, a week's sales data directly refreshed a number of historical records.

The printing agencies at home and abroad that cooperate with the Chinese Academy of Literature have all been flooded!

1,000,000 copies!

3,000,000 copies!

5,000,000 copies!

Inadequate!

Not enough at all!

Such a terrifying sales figure also directly alarmed the major foreign media.

The New York Times ran a front-page headline: "War and Peace from China Wins Weekly Bestseller Chart in North America!" ”

Canadian Daily News: "War and Peace Breaks Bestseller Record in North America!" ”

"British Literary Newspaper": "People in many places in Central Asia hold high "War and Peace" and call for an end to war! Perhaps, this book "War and Peace" will become a new symbol of anti-war among the people of Central Asia! ”

Australian press: "War and Peace has created new heights. ”

AFP: "Broke the record for the highest sale held by a French author!" What is the magic of this book "War and Peace"? ”

Many media outlets around the world rushed to report on it, all under the name "War and Peace".

There are media analysis data, and there are also TV stations that invite professional literary critics to analyze the specific content of the book.

In short, War and Peace has set off a new wave internationally.

It has never been before that a book written by a Chinese can attract such a high level of attention and discussion in the world!

……

At the same time, domestic.

There was a chorus of jubilation.

At the report meeting to the Wenzhen Group, Dean Sun Deyou said excitedly, "Mr. Ye's "War and Peace" has opened up a new world for the Chinese literary circle! It has opened a new door for the cause of Chinese culture to go abroad and go international! ”

Even the Ancient Literature Association, which has never supported Ye Luo's modern literary creation, everyone is smiling.

Chairman Li Wenzheng laughed, "In this situation, Mr. Ye can break the book with one book!" He really deserves to be the leader of our Chinese literary circle! ”

Professor Liu Ying directly posted congratulations on Weibo, "Congratulations to Mr. Ye on the global sale of his new book!" ”

The writers of the New Literature Association were both excited and frustrated.

Zhang Rumeng smiled and sighed: "I am also engaged in modern literature, why can Mr. Ye always think of some ideas that we can't think of?" How did he come up with the idea of creating with a Russian historical background? ”

Hao Zhijun patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be entangled, can you figure out Teacher Ye?" Aren't you a leader in the literary world? ”

Chairman Shao Xinzhong seriously analyzed: "This is the difference between ordinary writers and Mr. Ye. However, this kind of problem does not exist at all in Mr. Ye's place. Whether it is classical literature or modern literature, from the perspective of creation, Mr. Ye can always find the most suitable and unexpected one. Perhaps, this is genius. ”

Zhang Rumeng sighed, "Geniuses have genius ideas. However, where is Mr. Ye's genius? This is simply a fairy! Wenqu Xing descended to earth, right? ”

"Hehe, Wenquxing doesn't know Russian history."

"I have a little question, Mr. Ye, is this "War and Peace" considered our Chinese literary work?"

Shao Xinzhong slapped the table, squinted his eyes and said, "Why don't you count?" Mr. Ye wrote it himself, and even the translation was done by himself. Is there a purer Yip literature than this? As long as it is Ye's literature, it is all the purest Chinese works! ”

"This time, Mr. Ye's book "War and Peace" has made such a big stir in the world, I want to see what the Johnson Award jury will do!"

"Judging from the terrifying data of Mr. Ye's book, let alone a nomination, even if it is to give him the literary award directly, I don't think it is too much!"

"If you give it directly, you can't give it, so you don't have to think about it. However, this book is now being watched by the whole world, and they will never dare to make any small moves at this juncture! ”

Not only do they think so, it can be said that the entire Chinese literary world thinks this way!

A global explosion!

Sell in many places!

Even, among the major countries and regions in the world, this book has achieved the top seller!

United States!

Russia!

United Kingdom!

France!

Japan!

Central asia!

All of them are the world's major cultural powers, all of which have produced world-class literary masters, and among these countries, the book "War and Peace" has achieved great success that is hard to ignore.

Readers' rave reviews!

The media rushed to report it!

Even some very well-known writers have publicly stated on their accounts that the artistic value of this "War and Peace" is extremely high! Even, there are writers who directly commented that this book is a treasure of the entire international literary world!

With such a huge influence, even some Western conspirators who want to take the opportunity of this Johnson Literary Award to suppress Chinese literature must be weighed!

In fact, it is.

After the Chinese Academy of Literature reported "War and Peace" to the Yu Anxun Literature Award Jury, the entire jury was dumbfounded.

"Oh buy ga! Is this their Huaxia work? ”

"This book is so hot right now. My son's teacher at their school asked parents to buy a copy to read to their children yesterday. ”

"It's not going to be easy."

"There is really no way to push this book, so be it, I can only let him be selected."

"No! The death order from above, this time no one in Huaxia will be allowed to be shortlisted! ”

"But how can such a book be pushed away?"

"yes, the book sold like crazy all over the world. Readers all over the world recognized it, and our jury rejected it? Is this reasonable? ”

"Do you want reasonable, or do you want wages?"

"We must comply with the above requirements."

"What is the reason for that? This book is not the one they reported before, and the reason must be good. ”

"Sufficient? What kind of reasons do you think are sufficient? ”

"I don't think it's without reason. This book is from China and is supposed to represent Chinese culture, but it is set against the backdrop of Russian fictional history, which is very inappropriate. Why do Chinese books use Russian culture? Is it Chinese culture? Or does this author, called Ye Luo, himself not recognize Chinese culture? Besides, there are already people on the Russian side who have been shortlisted this year. Authors on the Russian side write about Russian culture, and Chinese people still have to write about Russian culture? Isn't this a repetition? A Johnson Literary Prize only needs a family of Russian culture! ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone in the entire jury lit up.

"That's right!"

"There are already works that use Russian culture."

"That's a really good reason."

"That's all."

"Let's reply to Huaxia, just say that this book does not meet the theme of Chinese culture, and the review will not pass."

"It makes sense."

……

No one thought that the world-famous "War and Peace", a literary work sought after by countless readers, would be rejected by the judges of the Johnson Literary Award!

Winning?

Don't even think about it.

I didn't even make it in!
