Through Hu Heping's tone, people around him could tell that he admired Xu Lingjun, a newly rising writer.
But Zha Jianying asked such a question, and he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.
Hu Heping didn't know where Cha Jianying's resentment against Xu Lingjun's works came from, but he still considered his answer:
"I can probably understand what you mean. Chinese literature needs people like Mr. Lu Xun, but it also needs Mr. Bing Xin. Not only the two of them, but every writer with his own unique style and depth of thought is an important part of Chinese literature.
part.
We can criticize the shortcomings of some works, but we should not only see its shortcomings, but also its advantages and strengths. If literature only has criticism, I am afraid it is just preaching."
When Hu Heping answered Zha Jianying's question, his tone was calm, but his attitude was uncompromising.
Hitting a soft nail, Zha Jianying was about to reply, but was held back by Wang Xiaoping who was standing beside her.
"Okay, Jianying, it's time to go back and discuss."
Wang Xiaoping took Zha Jianying, who wanted to refute, back to the room. Hu Heping scratched his head and asked Yang Lian: "This classmate seems to have a big opinion on Xu Lingjun?"
Yang Lian smiled and said: "She is Zha Jianying from Yan University. Last time Zhenkai went to Yan University and wanted to make an appointment with Xu Lingjun for a manuscript, Xu Lingjun didn't agree. It is said that his attitude was a little perfunctory. She was present at the time, maybe because of this."
When Hu Heping heard this, he didn't know what to say. He thought of a sentence in his mind: It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain; it is better to offend a villain than a woman.
Women, how vindictive they are!
"You said Zhenkai went to Yan University to make an appointment with Xu Lingjun?" Hu Heping suddenly asked.
"you do not know?"
"Know what?"
"Xu Lingjun is from Yan University and seems to be an employee of the library."
"Ah!" Hu Heping was a little surprised when he heard this information, "Xu Lingjun is actually from Yan University?"
"I only found out after hearing Zhenkai talk about it." Yang Lian explained.
At this time, someone called everyone to come into the room to continue the discussion, and the two followed everyone into the room.
The two-hour poetry discussion ended, and Zha Jianying and Wang Xiaoping came out of Dongsishitiao Hutong on bicycles.
"Jianying, you..."
Wang Xiaoping's tone was hesitant to speak.
"what?"
"Don't be so petty."
Zha Jianying immediately became furious after hearing this, "Why am I so weak?"
Wang Xiaoping looked at her speechlessly, "Lin Chaoyang's novels are not preachy or hypocritical, right?"
The last time Zhao Zhenkai went to Yanyue to draft and was rejected by Lin Chaoyang, Zha Jianying was very angry. She was not angry at Lin Chaoyang's rejection, but she thought there was something wrong with Lin Chaoyang's attitude and seemed to dislike Zhao Zhenkai.
Although she also enjoys Lin Chaoyang and Tao Yushu, a pair of legendary CPs on the Yanda campus, her appreciation cannot be compared with the idol Zhao Zhenkai.
She had talked about this topic with Wang Xiaoping more than once in private, so Wang Xiaoping knew her true thoughts better than anyone else.
"There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand readers, what's wrong?"
Wang Xiaoping said: "When you were watching "Little Shoes" this morning, I couldn't even scream at you..."
“Works are not equal to character!”
Although Zha Jianying's words were strong, there was a hint of guilt in his tone.
Wang Xiaoping almost lost his voice when he heard her words. A good work does not mean a good character!
Or you scholars can speak.
Although "Yenjing Literature and Art" bears the name of Yanjing, its influence is nationwide. Especially in the past six months since Li Qingquan took office, he has been bold in accepting manuscripts and has not hesitated to bear the responsibility in order to publish many good works.
Risks have a miraculous effect on the development of publications.
In the past few months, the reputation of "Yanjing Literature and Art" among readers across the country has increased rapidly. Many high-quality works have been widely recognized by readers, and the influence of the publication itself has also expanded rapidly in a short period of time.
For publications, the quality and influence of published works also determine the influence of the publication itself.
In October last year, "The Wrangler" came out and quickly became a leading work of domestic scar literature.
Now, after half a year, Xu Lingjun comes back with "Little Shoes", which immediately attracted the attention of hundreds of thousands of readers of "Yanjing Literature and Art".
But because of the speed of information dissemination in this era, there is a long lag between this attention and the effects it causes.
On the evening of the second day after "Yenjing Literature and Art" was published, Tao Yumo returned home and showed off to Lin Chaoyang the "Yenjing Literature and Art" she had purchased to support her brother-in-law.
This girl is used to reading books and magazines from her sister Tao Yushu. She rarely spends money to buy magazines, which can be understood as flattering her brother-in-law.
"The college entrance examination is coming soon. Don't rush to read magazines. Focus on studying."
Tao Yumo said softly: "Isn't this supporting you? My brother-in-law is really disappointing!"
Listening to the conversation between the two, Tao's mother frowned slightly.
"Your brother-in-law is right. The college entrance examination is in just over a month. This is a critical moment in your life. Can reading these novels help you improve your grades? It will only delay your study progress!"
After being scolded by his mother, Tao Yumo blamed Lin Chaoyang for the incident and gave him an Xingyan look.
The next day, Lin Chaoyang was at work, and Du Rong suddenly ran upstairs to talk to Lin Chaoyang about her feelings after watching "Little Shoes".
Lin Chaoyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing her request. The elevator was busy going up and down at the moment, so how could he have time to talk to Du Rong about these things.
"Let's have lunch later."
"Okay. Lao Tu and Sister Hu also want to talk to you!"
Yes, we came in a group.
The identity of a writer has a certain filter for the public. Even in later generations, if someone introduces himself as a writer, others will take a high look, let alone now that literature is booming.
No matter what their personality is, colleagues in the library are all well-educated, and most of them like to read.
Now that everyone knows that Lin Chaoyang is Xu Lingjun, and his new work has been released, everyone wants to hear him talk about novels.
After lunch, Lin Chaoyang stood at the door of the library chatting with a few colleagues. Among these people were not only colleagues from the library, but also several young colleagues in the library who liked literature. What everyone was most curious about was how he did it.
Writing novels.
Facing the crowd's eyes full of curiosity, Lin Chaoyang could only close his eyes and blow the summer torch.
Anyway, he wrote the novel, so it makes sense no matter how you say it!
After receiving admiring looks from a bunch of colleagues, Lin Chaoyang took a sip of water to moisten his throat.
Du Rong said: "Chaoyang, I watched "Little Shoes" and everything else was pretty good. I just felt that the character of the little dog's mother was a bit weak and that there was not enough pen and ink spent on it."
In "Little Shoes", Xiao Xiaozi's mother is a housewife suffering from chronic illness. She doesn't appear in many scenes, and the character is indeed not outstanding enough. Du Rong's feeling is not wrong.
Lin Chaoyang nodded, "I deliberately downplayed the character of Xiaoxiaozi's mother. The focus of the novel "Little Shoes" is actually on Xiaoxiaozi and his sister, and overemphasizes the character of mother.
If her characters are too full, it will easily cause the novel to be top-heavy.
Moreover, when you write about mothers and maternal love, it is easy to fall into the realm of sensationalism. Although the style of "Little Shoes" is warm and positive, I did not want to deliberately sensationalize it.
The part about treating my father is enough. The emotions and information I want to convey to readers are enough. Any more will overflow and be counterproductive."
After listening to Lin Chaoyang's explanation, Du Rong nodded sincerely.
The writer was indeed more thoughtful than readers like them. She tried to imagine the situation described by Lin Chaoyang. Based on the style of "Little Shoes" she saw now, this treatment was indeed a very good choice.
Several colleagues around me also expressed admiration.
At this moment, a female voice echoed at the door of the library, decisive.
"I don't agree!"
Everyone was stunned and followed the sound.
I saw a pretty, plainly dressed, and bespectacled female student standing not far from a few people holding a book with an unhappy look on her face.
Chapter completed!
