Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 319
Zhang Zhong originally wanted to get more information about this exchange meeting from Zhuang Yu and the others, but they looked like him and knew little about this exchange meeting.

The theme of this exchange meeting is "Sino-Foreign Cultural Exchange", and the participants are either writers or scholars engaged in academic research.

"I heard that He Kelan will come this time, but the news has not been confirmed, and I'm not sure." Liu Yuan said suddenly.

Zhuang Yu and the three of them looked at Liu Yuan.

"Why didn't you tell us this news just now?" Zhuang Yu asked.

"Because I'm not sure, so I don't dare to say more. Now that I've said it, you can listen to it casually, but don't tell others. If He Kelan doesn't come in the end, then I will become a villain spreading rumors." Liu Yuan Said.

"How do you know this news?" Zhang Zhong asked curiously.

"I saw it in the post bar two days ago."

Zhang Zhong and Zhuang Yu looked at each other, and they were a little speechless.

Seeing their expressions, Liu Yuan said, "Don't underestimate the Internet. As the saying goes, there must be a reason for groundless rumors. Although Yenching University has not released this information, it is not top secret. It's normal for people to know."

"What you said is a possibility." Zhuang Yu nodded, and then said, "Actually, it is not a shocking thing that He Kelan will come. Since the rumors say that the people who came to the meeting are not small, if you count them, they can be in front of us. There are as many people as there are big ones.”

He Kelan's background is really big, because he just won the Nobel Prize for Literature last year.

Of the four people present, none of them has ever won that crown.

He Kelan is a Frenchman with a wide range of subjects. He is a famous French thinker, writer, critical realist writer, music critic, and social activist.

What he is keen on in his works is to express the direct experience of self-spiritual exploration, and his novels often construct the plot framework with the soul energy in the protagonist's life experience.

Zhuang Yu also commented on He Kelan before. Zhuang Yu said that "great heart" and "sincere art" are the principles and spirits that run through He Kelan's creative path.

Although He Kelan's two novels "Christopher" and "Mother and Child" both show a broad picture of the social history at that time, but the protagonist's emotional rhythm and ideological situation occupy the central position, and the intricate social relations exist in the The consciousness of the protagonist is internalized into the driving force for their spiritual perfection, and the background of social life always appears and disappears with the relaxation and ups and downs of the protagonist's inner activities.

"He Kelan used to be a deviant adventurer in the literary world, but now he has become the object of study and imitation in the literary world, which is embarrassing." Zhuang Yu said with emotion.

In fact, Zhuang Yu and He Kelan have a relationship. Before He Kelan was recognized by the public, Zhuang Yu was already well-known, and at that time, Zhuang Yu had said good things about He Kelan.

He Kelan should know about this, but he has never said anything publicly.

So their origins end there.

Liu Yuan said, "It's hard to say about literature. Once upon a time, the dispute between imitating nature and expressing nature in the history of ancient Greek literary theory was deduced into an either-or value standard that spanned ancient and modern times, and imitating nature was enshrined as The basic point of materialist progressive thinking and the only way to create realism, denounces the expression of the soul as a symbol of the reactionary concepts of metaphorism and the common key of non-realism. This seemingly serious theory not only confuses philosophical epistemology and The boundary between the two in the theory of literary creation can not stand the test of practice. The appearance of He Kelan will make the realism theory that is paranoid in imitating nature fall into an embarrassing dilemma, so it was not recognized by the public at that time. "

When it comes to realist writing, Zhang Zhonglai became a little interested. He said, "There is nothing wrong with the difference in the way of expression. All paranoid theories will eventually be proved wrong. Realistic creative paths, whether new or old, are all different. It has the meaning of its existence. I think that no expression method and literary genre is perfect, and it is very... still somewhat inappropriate to insist on a certain style and deny another style."

Originally, Zhang Zhong wanted to say that this kind of behavior was very irrational, but thinking of the extremely serious disputes between literary schools in this world, he changed it to a more euphemistic way of saying it.

"Walking in a dead end, you can't see the way forward, and everyone is just constantly improving." Zhuang Yu does not reject Zhang Zhong's statement, otherwise he would not be friends with Wang Yi.

Wang Yi changed the topic and said, "Zhang Zhong, you have been traveling outside for more than a month, what do you think?"

"I went to relax, and I really don't have much feeling."

……

A few people chatted for a while, and it was getting dark, so they went to the restaurant upstairs in the hotel to have dinner.

During the meal, I met many acquaintances, all of whom were Zhuang Yu's acquaintances. Zhang Zhong didn't know a few, but the names were familiar.

After eating, Zhang returned to his room.

The next morning, the school sent a car to pick them up.

Although the hotel is not far from the school, the school certainly won't let them walk there.

Zhang Zhong and Zhuang Yu were in the same car.

When they arrived at the auditorium of Yenching University, there were already many people sitting inside, and many cameras were set up. As soon as they entered, the cameras were directed at them.

Liu Yuan turned sideways and said, "It seems that we came relatively late."

Zhuang Yu said with a smile, "It's none of our business. When the school picks us up, we just come over at that time, and there is no delay at all."

Wang Yi has been silent since he came in, looking around, then suddenly said, "Look at the left side of the second row, it seems to be He Kelan."

Zhang Zhong was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the old man Wang Yi had such good eyesight. They were still far away from the second row, and they could see the back of their heads one by one. How could he tell that it belonged to He Kelan.

Under the guidance of the staff, Zhang Zhong and the others also went to the second row.

It was clear now that He Kelan was indeed sitting in the same row as them.

They were looking at He Kelan, but they didn't know that there were many people watching them. After all, the four of them were extraordinary figures if they were singled out. Now that the four of them stand together, they are much more attractive than ordinary star groups.

Not long after sitting down, another acquaintance walked towards them.

Zhang Zhong raised his eyebrows, and it was Yu Dongyu, the little xanthium he hadn't seen for a long time, who came.

Liu Yuan patted the seat next to him enthusiastically and said, "Dong Yu, come and sit here."

Yu Dongyu said with a smile, "I'm in the third row, but I can still chat with you here."
