The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 140 Ryunosuke Akutagawa

There are nearly 100 literary club members in the lecture hall.

More than half of them are members of No. [-] High School, and the rest are fellowships from other schools.

After all, Kazuko's school culture festival is not to be missed.

It is true that, as Donghei Saburo said, there are many female high school students.

At this time, I am talking about Natsume Soseki's masterpiece "I am a cat".

This masterpiece established Natsume Soseki's position in the literary world, and his work directly reached the top.

It's just that... since it was serialized in the "Cuckoo" magazine in [-], and it was published in three volumes in [-], this book has been completed for five years.Those who can analyze it have already analyzed it long ago, and the people in these literary clubs are just talking about it.

It's like doing reading comprehension.

Word by word, I insisted on analyzing what Natsume meant when he wrote this sentence, and what did he say?Combined with the background, what metaphors and similes are there.

"I'm a cat, I don't have a name yet."

"Senior Xia Ren wrote such a sentence at the beginning. I flipped through the novel and read it all night after night. When I was tired and lethargic, when I woke up, I felt the greatness of this sentence. This sentence is saying : My cat..."

On the podium, a student spoke impassionedly.

As far as the interpretation of this sentence is concerned, it took seven or eight minutes to talk.

After the speech, the audience applauded thunderously.

After Bai Gui finished listening, he shook his head helplessly.

This is similar to the "fish's eyes shining strangely" in later generations. The first sentence of Natsume Soseki's opening sentence is indeed a metaphor, but it has not reached such an outrageous point.

But being able to explain it in one sentence for so long is considered amazing.

Some members went to explain their views again, and this process was finally over after four people.

Next is to talk about other literary works.

It is inevitable to mention "The Great Qin Empire" written by Bai Gui.

"The Great Qin Empire is a book written by Bai Meihe when he was studying in a high school. It tells the story of all the countries in the Warring States period trying to become stronger. The strong will become strong, and the weak will perish. The land of Hexi..."

"I have read a lot from this book. Self-innovation is the foundation of continuous improvement. Since the Meiji period, our country has surpassed the Qing Dynasty by a lot, but we should not be proud. Wei Yuan, a native of the Qing Dynasty, opened his eyes to see the world first, and wrote "Sea "National Tuzhi", this book is popular in our country. Now the Qing Dynasty is weak and our country is strong, but the world is changing..."

A person talks eloquently.

Everyone in the audience was fascinated by it.

The first book of the Great Qin Empire, Black Fission, written by Bai Gui, talks about "the Qin and Wei countries exchanged strength and weakness because of the reform." At the time of King Wei, it reached its peak, and it was agreed that the six countries would seek Qin. However, after Shang Jun presided over the reform, and after a more thorough reform, Wei was defeated and ceded the Hexi land...

Isn't this talking about the relationship between Japan and the Qing Dynasty!
Although Dongying has undergone reforms and strives to become stronger, its foundation is weak. Like Wei, it is in the land of the Four Wars, and there is no natural danger as a barrier.Although the Qing Dynasty is weak at this time, it has a vast land and abundant resources, just like the land in Guanzhong and four fortresses, so a temporary fiasco is nothing!
Bai Gui frowned, but didn't pay much attention.

The truth is this truth, and everyone understands it.The Great Qin Empire is just a novel. In the political theory class of No. [-] High School, many theories like this were put forward, and he heard quite a few.

It's just that the novel fits the core elements of the era of reform, and it is commendable and a historical masterpiece by using the past to describe the present.

It's also over-interpreted.

It's not that just one more book can have more influence.

……

In the afternoon, the school culture festival of the Literature Club is coming to an end.

"Senior White, please stop for a moment."

Just as Bai Gui was about to get up and leave, someone stopped him from behind.

It was a boy, about the same age as him, about 15 years old, with a thin body, a longer face, wearing round glasses, a little handsome, holding a thick stack of newspaper subscriptions, and walked over.

"My name is Akutagawa Ryunosuke. I just graduated from the No. [-] Prefectural Middle School in March, and was recommended to Class One, Class B, First High School. Senior White is also my senior..."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke approached, shook hands with Bai Gui.

"Is it Akutagawa-kun?"

Bai Gui has also heard about this person, whether in his previous life or now, the current Ryunosuke Akutagawa has a certain reputation in the industry.When he was ten years old, he founded the magazine "Sunrise World" with his classmates, and he has been contributing articles to various newspapers in the following years. He can be regarded as a very talented young genius in Tokyo.

That's why Yi Gao gave him special approval to walk him away.

"Yes, I didn't expect Senior White to remember my name?"

Akutagawa Ryunosuke also expected it, but as wise as him, he immediately showed a look of surprise.

"What's the matter, Akutagawa-kun?"

"By the way, since you are about to enter No. [-] High School, you can call me senior instead of senior."

Bai Gui smiled and said.

Although Ryunosuke Akutagawa made his debut earlier than him, his reputation in the industry is obviously not as good as his.Therefore, it is reasonable to call them seniors, but it is obviously closer to call them seniors.

"It's like this, Senior White... I've also read the novel written by the senior, and I like it a lot, so I bought a bound newspaper and came to ask the senior for an autograph, and I can make some money."

"By the way, I can also meet the senior."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke bowed.

He prefers the Great Qin Empire, but not to the point where he deliberately wants to sign it.However, there is no reason to come to make friends. Signing will undoubtedly bring the relationship between the two closer.

It can be regarded as being careful.

"Combined newspapers can be regarded as Akutagawa-kun's heart."

Bai Gui nodded.

Now that the first volume of The Great Qin Empire has been fully released, some readers will deliberately bind each issue of the newspaper together, which is a bound newspaper.There are also some resellers who also use this to make a fortune.

Many newspaper staff, when they knew that some great writers' serial novels were very popular, would secretly print more newspapers for private collection, and then wait for a certain time to sell them.

It can also be regarded as an unspoken rule and benefit.

As the editor-in-chief, he has also seen some bound newspapers secretly ordered by the printing department.

It's just that when the water is clear, there will be no fish.

A little benefit, it's not enough for him to take care of it.

The newspaper office is not very willing to do it for the newspaper.One is that there is no copyright to publish the booklet, and the other is that the price of the bound newspaper will inevitably remain high, which must be more expensive than the booklet, and the experience is not good.

Bai Gui took out the pen hanging from his coat and signed it.

The two then exchanged business cards.

"I heard that the senior's booklet is about to be released. I will definitely buy a few copies and take them home for collection."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke laughed.

The release of one issue is always the least, and it is also the most valuable, which is very meaningful for collection.

It doesn't hurt to buy it.
