1980 My literary era

The Swedish Academy, the awarding body for the Nobel Prize in Literature, is generally translated as the Swedish Academy in China.

The Swedish Academy is composed of 18 academicians, who are all well-known writers, linguists, litterateurs and historians. The terms of the 18 academicians are life-long, and each of them sits on a chair with a The numbered chairs can only be filled by others after their death.

However, the selection of the award is not entirely the responsibility of the 18 academicians. A large amount of specific and transactional work is carried out by the Nobel Prize Selection Committee established in Norway.

The members of the jury are composed of 5 members selected from the 18 academicians of the Swedish Academy. The term is generally three years. They are responsible for distributing nomination forms, primary selection and other related work.

As we all know, the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature is announced in October every year, but the award evaluation activities all start in September of the previous year.

At this time, the Nobel Prize for Literature jury will send nomination forms to thousands of people. Those invited to nominate include all members of the Swedish Academy, previous Nobel Prize winners, senior professors of literature and history from many European universities, and people from all over the world. Experienced writer, critic and cultural scholar.

It is now September, which is when the Nobel Prize in Literature committee sends out nomination forms.

According to Roger Strauss, Lin Weimin had been nominated several times in the past few years, not only as a result of his mediation, but also because some people liked and appreciated Lin Weimin's works.

But the reality is that there is only one Nobel Prize for Literature every year. There are hundreds of writers nominated every year, and most of them are long-established writers. Even the jury itself dare not say that the winners are He must be stronger than those who didn't win the award.

Every time Roger Strauss told Lin Weimin that he was nominated again this year, Lin Weimin laughed it off. Nomination does not mean that he will definitely win.

To take a step back, the nomination results for the Nobel Prize in Literature were only announced fifty years later. Even if Roger Strauss deceived him, he would have no way to verify it.

Of course, Roger Strauss had nothing to gain by lying to him about this.

"This year's awards will be announced soon. How do you know it's not me who wins this year?"

Lin Weimin ignored Roger Strauss's complaints and said cheerfully.

Roger Strauss said: "Don't count on it this year. It is said that three academicians particularly like Günter Grass's poems. They don't read them because of the awards, but they like to read his stuff. They It’s a big favorite this year, everyone says so, and it’s probably close to 10.”

Günter Grass is a German poet and writer. His works are both joyful and sad. His representative works include the poetry collection "The Advantages of the Weathercock" and "Triangle Orbit", the plays "The Flood" and "Uncle, Uncle" and the novel "Danzig Three Parts". song".

His creations cover a wide range of genres. Since his debut in the 1950s, he has won many heavyweight literary awards in Germany, such as the Büchner Award and the Theodor Hauss Award.

Moreover, Günter Grass is 72 years old this year. This alone is an advantage that Lin Weimin cannot match.

If he doesn't win this year's award, he might not have a chance.

There are many nominees with qualifications like Günter Grass in the selection process of the Nobel Prize for Literature over the years.

"According to their evaluation, it is estimated that it will be my turn in another thirty years." Lin Weimin said jokingly.

Roger Strauss said seriously: "No. The Nobel Prize in Literature does not really depend on age. You have been running for several times, and you are nominated every year but don't win. The Academy will also be under pressure. "

"I hope, of course it's good to get it." Lin Weimin said easily.

"I like your mentality. Believe me, you will definitely win the award. This day will not be too far away." Roger Strauss encouraged.

"Thank you for your blessing, Roger!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Weimin put aside what he had just done and continued busy with work.

"Thank you for your hard work in the past six months. I didn't expect the listing to go so smoothly!" Lin Weimin said to Dong.

This morning, Yu Donglai reported to Lin Weimin about Wenhua's listing.

At the group meeting at the end of last year, Lin Weimin announced to all employees three major events for the Guowen Group this year. The first is the construction of the headquarters building, the second is the establishment of the advertising service department, and the third is the listing of Wenhua Film and Television.

As one of the holding subsidiaries of Guowenshe, Wenhua Film and Television has maintained rapid development since its establishment five years ago and is now one of the leading companies in the domestic film and television industry, especially in the field of film production and distribution.

However, there are also problems with the company's good development. The domestic film market is so big that it is unlikely to have much development in a short period of time. Therefore, the horizontal development and external expansion of Wenhua Film and Television are particularly important. If you want to gain Greater development space is inseparable from capital operation, and listing has become an issue that must be considered.

Thanks to the smooth development process in the past few years, Wenhua Film and Television can be said to be making rapid progress. It looks like nothing at ordinary times. When it comes to planning to go public, the healthy, stable and upward development of the company has become the best booster. .

The listing conditions for A-share companies are much more stringent than those on Nasdaq, but Wenhua Film and Television's road to listing was a green light, and all the prerequisites for listing were met in just a few months.

Now the listing date has been determined, it is September 27, and it is the 888th domestic A-share listed company.

Yu Dong smiled with wrinkles all over his face. In the past few years since he came to Wenhua, his work achievements have been obvious to all, at the cost of gaining weight. However, in his thirties, he is already richer and more like a leader than Lin Weimin.

"My hard work is nothing. If it weren't for you and the group's continuous support for us, Wenhua, we wouldn't have been able to go so smoothly. It's hard to believe that we, Wenhua, were able to go so quickly. We have reached the stage of listing. The first film and television company in the A-share market, hey, Haiyan doesn’t like me all day long now.”

Lin Weimin smiled and said: "It should be said that it is the number one stock in China's film and television industry. Brother companies, what is there to dislike about it? It sounds good to go public early, but it is not necessarily all good."

Yu Dong nodded.

Lin Weimin asked again: "I heard that you applied for Yanda's MBA program this year?"

Hearing this, Yu Dong looked a little shy.

"It's a good thing. As the company develops, you, the leader, must also improve yourself."

"I think so too. Now the company's business is getting wider and wider. Now there is a lot of business not only domestically, but also overseas. I just want to learn more things so as not to fool others."

"Yes, this is the right idea." Lin Weimin encouraged him.

When the business talk was almost over, Yu Dong said: "When the bell rings at the end of the month, you must go!"

In addition to reporting on his work today, the most important thing he came to talk about was this matter.

The listing of Wenhua Film and Television is a happy event for Guowen Group, and it is also an opportunity for Yu Dong to show his face within the group. Lin Weimin did not ring the bell at the scene. Isn't that a dereliction of duty on his part?

"Okay, I'll go ring the bell with you then." Lin Weimin said with a smile.

The potential of Wenhua Film and Television is far less than that of Sohu, but Lin Weimin immediately agreed to ring the bell, because compared to Sohu, Wenhua Film and Television is a direct branch of the Guowen Group.

After receiving Lin Weimin's affirmative reply, Yu Dong's face was full of joy and he was about to say goodbye.

Lin Weimin asked: "Is there enough money to subscribe for stocks?"

When Wenhua Film and Television is going public, everyone from the company's senior executives to lower-level employees can subscribe for shares at a discount. Yu Dong is the person in charge of Wenhua and can subscribe for up to 100,000 shares.

Yu Dong smiled and said: "I have been given bonuses and dividends in the past few years. In addition to buying a house and a car, I have saved all the money. It is just enough."

Lin Weimin nodded, "Okay, Wenhua is on the market, which is also a good harvest season for you."

Yu Dong had a bright smile on his face.

After he left, an announcement was quickly posted on the bulletin board of the Chinese Literature Society, and then quickly spread among the employees of the Chinese Literature Group.

Cultural Film and Television will be listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange on September 27. Now the group is giving employees the opportunity to subscribe for stocks at a 50% discount. Employees can each subscribe for stocks ranging from 4,000 to 400 shares according to different positions.

In the late 1990s, ordinary people were no longer unfamiliar with the term stocks, but there were still not many people who had the courage to try it.

In the editorial department of "Contemporary", Yao Shuzhi is trying to persuade He Qizhi.

"Just buy some. If you subscribe for stocks at a 50% discount, you won't lose anything."

He Qizhi shook his head firmly, "I'm so old, but I can't understand this thing. Instead of worrying about this thing all day long, it's better to be out of sight and out of mind."

Yao Shuzhi persuaded him for a while, but seeing that he was still determined, she said helplessly: "You don't want the chance to make money for nothing."

Yang Xinlan asked her: "Sister Yao, can this stock really make money?"

"I see that you have read all your usual newspapers and magazines in vain. Of course this thing is not 100% profitable. But this time Wenhua Film and Television is listed. We are subscribing to the stock internally. The price is much cheaper than buying it on the stock market, so we will definitely make money."

Hearing what Yao Shuzhi said, Yang Xinlan was ready to make a move.

Zou Changyi on the side reminded: "These stocks of ours have a lifting period."

"What is the lifting period?" Yang Xinlan asked.

"You cannot sell them within a certain period of time after they are listed. This is to prevent shareholders from cashing out and affecting newly listed companies. Although we bought these stocks cheaply, we cannot sell them in a year and a half. We don't know whether they will rise or fall by then. "

Being frightened by Zou Changyi, Yang Xinlan hesitated, "Then I still won't buy it."

Yao Shuzhi angrily accused Zou Changyi, "If you say you won't sell it, forget it. Why are you scaring Xiao Yang?"

"How do you call this bluffing? I am explaining the pros and cons to her. Sister Yao, your family is so big that you don't care about this little money. We are working class."

"Yes, yes, I won't hesitate to tell you. You are just a stupid person, and you don't even make any money."

The scene in the editorial department of "Contemporary" has become the norm for Mandarin Group in recent days. After the group's announcement was issued, employees discussed it very loudly, but not many people actually paid to subscribe for Wenhua Film and Television shares.

The stock issuance price of Wenhua Film and Television is 11.85 yuan/share, and a 50% discount subscription is 5.92 yuan/share. The minimum 400 shares is nearly 2,400 yuan, which is more than two months’ salary for many people.

Many people are most worried about risks, but rarely consider the appreciation of stocks. Spending 2,400 yuan to buy so many stocks is a bit risky, and they are not willing to try it at all.

However, compared with the employees of Guowen Group, the employees of Wenhua Film and Television are much more active. The company has been planning to go public for more than half a year. The employees of Wenhua Film and Television are not as interested in going public as the employees of the group. Once I have some ideas, I am very enthusiastic about subscribing.

The subscription shares provided by Guowen Group to the group's employees can be regarded as inclusive benefits. However, when Wenhua Film and Television's own company went public, the number of shares subscribed by its employees was much larger than that of the group's employees.

In particular, key players such as Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Tong Zhonggui, and Mo Yan can subscribe up to 50,000 shares.
