Chapter 70: I Really Want to Keep a Low Profile! (5/5)
There is a joke: Mo Yan was asked in an interview how to spend the bonus, and Mo Yan said: I can finally buy a house in Beijing. The host asked: What about the rest of the money? Mo Yan: The rest will be paid back slowly.
That's right, Mo Yan is very poor!
For him, winning the Nobel Prize, the biggest and even the only sweetness, is probably that a huge sum of 7.5 million suddenly fell from the sky, and finally fulfilled the promise he made to his daughter to buy a house in the imperial capital before the age of 60: After the money was recorded, he immediately bought a big house in a remote community in Changping District, outside the North Fifth Ring Road.
It's a bit poignant, the previous Mo Yan, as a celebrity but not a celebrity, is about to be a sixtieth generation, and the three generations of old and young are crowded together, and it is still an old house of less than 90 square meters.
He wrote books all his life, "I can't afford to buy a toilet in Beijing"...
Of course Ah Mou knows this.
Therefore, under the persuasion of Shen Mengxi, he agreed to help the platform of "Red Sorghum" and serve as the art director of the already filmed "Red Sorghum"...
This thing is purely selling drama through his origin!
After that, the basic contact is finished, and the rest are basically some interviews, so there is no hurry.
Turning his head, Liu Yifei and Yang Xiaomi were all looking at him...
Shen Mengxi asked, "What are you looking at me?"
“... How did you know that Mr. Mo Yan could win the Nobel Prize?"
"I didn't say it, it just happened... I have the adaptation rights of "Red Sorghum", "Ordinary World", and "White Deer Plain", and I must all adapt them, and I just chose "Red Sorghum"!"
"It's as simple as that?"
"How complicated can it be?"
Shen Mengxi spread his hands: "Don't think I'm too magical, even if I want to do public relations for the Nobel Prize in Literature, I can't find a way!"
"There's always some basis!"
Shen Mengxi put a cup on the coffee table for a short time, took a sip of water, and then asked: "Do you know "One Hundred Years of Solitude"? Do you know Marquez? Do you know "Frog" where Mo Yan won the award?"
"I don't know..."
"It's normal if you don't know, but don't ask if you don't know, I'm too lazy to say!"
A bunch of scumbags inquired about this...
Even if Shen Mengxi said it, can he understand?
The third girl thought about it, simply sat down, and Shen Mengxi went upstairs to catch up on sleep...
Before going upstairs, he looked at Liu Yifei.
The young lady pretended not to understand his eyes...
"My wife doesn't want to sleep with me, give you two a chance, who wants to come over... Sleepy vegetarian!"
Yang Xiaomi immediately explained: "Sleeping vegetarian, who sleeps with you?"
Hearing this, Liu Shishi immediately blew up: "What's wrong, what else do you want to happen?"
Yang Xiaomi retracted her head: "I'll just say that..."
Liu Yifei also glared at him...
Shen Mengxi shrugged: "Just kidding..."
"Go up and sleep... Let's clear our minds here!"
“... Well, I'm dying..."
......
To quote a passage from an interview with Mo Yan by a reporter from the Beijing News:
Reporter: Many people have commented that your writing is too cruel, such as "Sandalwood Punishment", I did only turn a few pages, and I didn't dare to read it.
Mo Yan: I know you haven't watched "Sandalwood Punishment" at all, you are the same as everyone. Because the descriptions in "Sandalwood Punishment" that are considered "cruel" do not appear until more than 200 pages of the book. "Journalists never read books", you can't read it, that's understandable. Commenting on books and commenting on books without reading books is understandable.
It's a half-joke, you don't have to be serious. But don't delete this paragraph when you publish it, because it's funny, it's a gentle rebellion on my part as the interviewee. We, the writers, have been pinched like plasticine by you reporters for decades, and we finally mustered up the courage to say a few words of rebuttal, hoping that you will also be a little elegant and not delete it.
There is an old saying in our hometown that "the owl announces good news——— bad name", which means that even if the owl reports a happy event, people still don't like it. It is also said, "A thief once is a thief for life." "I wrote a few cruel plots and became a cruel writer, don't you see those deathly tender plots in me?
According to a fairer statement, Mo Yan was able to win the award mainly because the structure was played well - 'broadened the boundaries of literature!'
Spiritually, Mo Yan is a disciple of Márquez, writing about China and using magical realism.
Although he didn't inherit all the magical reality, he had his own innovations.
In "Frog", Mo Yan did not write the story of decades directly, but used four long letters and a nine-act stage play to complete the narrative.
......
Mo Yan won the award, and it immediately became a hot search!
This is the first time that the Chinese have won the award!
Breakthrough of zero.
Whether you admit it or not, it is enough to be written into the history of Chinese literature.
Strange to say, before winning the Nobel Prize in Literature, many people said that the prosperity of the Chinese literary world was not there, for example, no one won the Nobel Prize;
It always makes sense!
The literary world itself belongs to the big entertainment circle.
Immediately, many people inquired about the right to adapt his works...
The blessing of the Nobel Prize in Literature can guarantee that the adaptation of his works will definitely be sought after...
I'm sorry it's so realistic!
When Mr. Jin Yong passed away, someone immediately asked, 'Is the right to adapt his work free?'
For many people, they only care if it is in their own interests!
Thanks to them watching it, they learned that the adaptation rights of "Red Sorghum" have been obtained by Shen Mengxi, and filming has started, director Kong Sheng, Shen Mengxi and Mo Yan are the chief screenwriters, and the art director is Zhang Yimou...
It's outrageous!
How could he be so lucky?
The filming of "Rainbow Sorghum" was launched last year!
Take a look at the hot search #Shen Mengxi predicts that Mo Yan will win the Nobel #...
the groove.
Is he God?
clicked on it and took a look, it was a passage from Hou Hongliang: "The project of "Red Sorghum" was promoted by Mengxi, I asked him at the time, and he jokingly said, 'Maybe Mr. Mo Yan can win the Nobel next year'... I'm also confused now, is he joking or is there a basis?"
A bunch of netizen comments at the bottom:
ID'PT Cat': Boss, he's expected that?
ID'Ji Huifu': "Shen Mengxi has finally revealed his stuff, in fact, I have long suspected that the norm of film investment should be three to make one and the other two to lose money, but the movies produced by Mengxi, each one can be profitable, and it makes a lot of money, this can also be accurately explained with vision, Nobel Prize in Literature, how did he predict it? The only explanation has to be made: he is a reborn!"
ID'Duty 1987': You have a lot of words, and you are right!
Okay, immediately put Shen Mengxi in the limelight!
Shen Mengxi can swear that he really doesn't want this hot search.
Because, it feels really uncomfortable to be blocked by a bunch of reporters just after getting out of the car, especially when it is Mo Yan's question...
