Chapter 311 Criticism
After the vernacular movement during the Republic of China period, Chinese culture has completely abandoned the difficult and obscure classical Chinese writing styles and has been completely replaced by more colloquial vernacular.
After the founding of the Kingdom of Daxia, the fonts were simplified and the pinyin incisions were added, which further made the text more popular. The advantage of this was that it reduced the difficulty of cultivating education and made culture easier to promote, but it also had its disadvantages.
Without the influence of ancient Chinese and the foundation of classical Chinese, students' reading level is much worse than their predecessors.
Students under this modern education system have a natural separation from Chinese traditional culture.
It was not difficult for early students to read ancient books, but after two generations, students' reading ability is becoming increasingly weak. Not to mention reading works on classical Chinese, they can't even understand ancient vernacular Chinese.
The disappearance of this foundation of ancient literature has led to the decline of related poems. Although the country now organizes poetry conferences from time to time, over the past few real poems have reached the height of the ancients, especially ancient poems.
Nowadays, not to mention that there are few famous ancient poems, even modern poems rarely produce works that hit the heart. As some people say, an impetuous and utilitarian society has become a desert of poetry.
Fast-paced life has made it difficult for people to calm down and create or appreciate those beautiful things. Only fast-paced works are suitable for most people. Therefore, martial arts novels are emerging, movies and TV hits, fast food culture is emerging, and traditional literature with a slow-paced pace is becoming less and less popular.
In this case, Lei Yu discovered original ancient poems in Guo Dalu's martial arts novels, and the sentences were concise, naturally simple, and had the characteristics of Tang Dynasty poetry. Lei Yu couldn't help but be surprised.
"This Guo Dalu has a great attainment in ancient poetry!"
The so-called "seeing the whole leopard by a glance" is a leopard. Although I only saw a few scattered sentences in the book and did not see the whole poem's style, it has already made people imagine how amazing the original poem is.
Thunder Rain praised for a long time before calming down and continuing to watch.
Jin Yong's book has a characteristic, all of which are plain and simple at the beginning without any surprises, but as the plot progresses, the wonderful parts gradually appear. It is like an iron pot boiling water, with no change at the beginning, and gradually the hot water sounds and bubbles are produced. Soon after, white smoke rises lightly, water vapor steams, and finally life becomes more and more prosperous. A pot of water turns over, bubbles and tumbling, characters appear one by one, the plot is wonderful and dazzling. When it comes to the most exciting point, there is a loud shock, the water opens and fires, and the whole book is over.
The afterglow is endless, and it really makes people unable to recognize the taste of meat for three months.
After reading the first chapter of Lei Yu, I felt that Guo Dalu used his pen in a simple manner. Although he had good poems as a pearl embellishment, he was just a fight in the world and could not be considered a clever one. When he saw the second chapter, the protagonist Di Yun was imprisoned and met the prison monster Ding Dian, who was beaten by Ding Dian every day. Later, he learned that his junior sister was married and Di Yun hanged himself. Unexpectedly, he was rescued by Ding Dian, who had achieved great internal skills in Shen Zhao Jing. Later, the prison was in trouble, and Ding Dian fought with martial arts figures. Although all kinds of thrilling scenes were only a few strokes, they gave people a sense of immersion. When reading, they couldn't help but breathe lightly.
When he first read, he still had the intention to comment on the quality of this book, but after reading one or two chapters, he had long since thrown aside the thought of evaluating the quality of the work. He was attracted by the plot and became a pure reader completely, and he no longer had the heart to comment.
When the red sun sets westward, and when the nanny calls him out for dinner, Lei Yu comes to his senses and looks at the sky, he is extremely surprised, "It's dark so soon?"
Lei Mengmeng ran to the thunderstorm, "Dad, have you finished reading it? Tell me quickly where this book is not written well? I am talking to the artillery regiment about the shortcomings of this "Liancheng Jue". Unfortunately, I can't tell you the key points and the strength is too weak, so I can't achieve the effect that Guo Dalu wants to see right away."
Lei Yu gently closed the "Liancheng Jue" in his hand and sighed, "No wonder so many people like Guo Dalu's martial arts novels. His book has an indescribable magic. It makes people want to read the more they read it. They don't want to stop for a moment. Not to mention anything else, just about reading experience, among the novels I have seen in my life, this novel should be the first."
"What rice?"
Raymond widened his eyes, "Hey hey, dad, I asked you to talk about shortcomings, why are you praising him?"
Lei Yu rubbed his face and said, "I haven't finished reading it yet. I'll talk about the advantages and disadvantages after reading it. But as far as I'm reading now, this book is not very successful in terms of the plot setting and the character portrayal. The protagonist Di Yun in the book and his sworn brother Ding Dian, both of them are not very prominent in their image, and they basically have no appearance characteristics. If you close your eyes and think about it now, you can only think of the plot of this book, but it is difficult to establish the image of the characters in this book in your heart. This should be considered a disadvantage."
Raymondmeng said happily: "You wait a while, wait a while, you say slowly, I have to write it down first!"
She simply turned on the video recording function of her mobile phone, "Dad, say it again! She is worthy of being a famous Chinese writer, Comrade Lei Yu, and it really hit the nail on the head!"
Lei Yu couldn't help laughing and crying, "You are still a fan of Guo Dalu. Why do you feel so happy when I talk about the shortcomings of his book?"
Lei Mengmeng said: "Mr. Guo is very arrogant now and keeps shouting to hurt each other. Why are we still polite? Can the power of netizens gather together and still hurt him?"
Lei Yu smiled and said, "I'll talk about the specific evaluation after I finish reading it. It's a bit irresponsible whether it's good or bad now, but as far as the part I've seen now, the writing is still good, especially the poems that pop up by chance, which are really surprising. Those poems are just a famous line for all ages!"
He was very excited when he said this. He took out a small notebook at the desk and pointed to the sentence he had specially copied from the book, "Look, this sentence 'Look up and look at the bright moon, and think of his hometown' should be the ending sentence of a poem, which is extremely vivid! Look at the two sentences of "Looking down and hearing the shocking wind, the mountains are like waves" a little bit distant, but the sentence is concise and vivid, which is also very good. There is also this sentence even more powerful, 'The setting sun shines on the big flag, the horse whistles the wind'. Just this sentence describes the atmosphere of the military flag waving at dusk, which is extremely vivid. The most exciting sentence here is this sentence."
The thunderstorm pointed his finger at a line of poems written specifically, "The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river is round!"
The old man said excitedly: "This is a famous line for all ages! This sentence outlines a vast scene of the setting sun in the long river, which is majestic and magnificent, with paintings in the poems and poetry in the paintings. After reading this sentence, the picture is overwhelming. Looking through famous poems in history, it is difficult to find such wonderful sentences! With just these few remaining poems, Guo Dalu's book "Liancheng Jue" can be regarded as an amazing work!"
Raymondmeng was stunned when he heard this, "It's really that good?"
Chapter completed!
