Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 371 Let You Live Up to Your Name

It's not important to encourage seedlings to grow, but if Teacher He loses money, they will feel very sorry.

After a brief inner struggle, several people said to He Ping: "Teacher He, we appreciate your kindness, let us go at our own pace."

He Ping doesn't care if he loses money or not, and he doesn't print more poetry collections. Even if [-] to [-] copies can't be sold, the cost is only a lot. The main reason is that he wants to use poetry collections to make good fortune.

But since the few people declined, He Ping couldn't persuade them anymore, and he recognized the character of the few people even more.

He could see that several of them were not well-off financially. Under such conditions, they could withstand the temptation of publishing, which was enough to show their love for poetry. He Ping also wanted to help them, and he thought of "Heroes".

"The publication matter will be discussed later, do you plan to earn some extra money?" He Ping asked.

"Earn extra money?"

"That's right. Didn't I say that I run a publication? Now Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts novels are very popular here. I wrote a framework for a martial arts novel before. I want to find someone to write it according to the originality. Give it a try." Let’s see if we can write our own style of martial arts novels.”

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing how to answer He Ping for a while.

What are the martial arts novels of this era?It's moaning without disease, it's poisonous weeds, students can only spread it secretly, who dares to put the book on the table.

And Liu Jun and the others are poetry lovers, and they don't like to see such strange and obscene skills in martial arts novels on weekdays.If another person said this to them, they probably wouldn't even think about it, and would immediately reject it.

"Mr. He, I'm afraid we can't help you with this matter." Liu Jun looked embarrassed.

The others also nodded slightly, not saying anything out of concern for He Ping's face.

He Ping said with a smile: "Don't refuse in a hurry. First of all, you have to understand that you are not doing this to write a literary masterpiece that will last forever, but to write a popular work. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin" were placed in ancient times. What is it? Isn’t that just popular literature for the lower Liba people? But why they are still popular today and occupy a place in ancient literature, isn’t it because of the author’s intentions? There are never bad themes, only bad writers.

In addition, you have to remember that no matter how big your dreams are, having enough food is always the first priority.The body is gone, so what kind of literature is there?If Cao Xueqin starved to death without even writing the first [-] chapters of "A Dream of Red Mansions", how could there be a "Dream of Red Mansions" that has lasted through the ages? "

Liu Jun and the others looked at each other. They agreed with what He Ping said, but they always felt that they couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts. This is the same as the current mainstream literary world sees them and regards each other as heretics.

"Are you going to treat martial arts novels like others treat obscure poems?" He Ping finally asked.

Killing and punishing the heart was nothing more than that, and the few people were silent.

Zha Haisheng is the most idealistic person among them, which can be seen from the fate of his later generations.

"Mr. He, do you think martial arts novels can be passed down like "Dream of Red Mansions"?"

He Ping | Ask him back: "Why not?"

Before Zha Haisheng could speak, he asked again: "Which one do you think would be better between a literary work that is blunt, obscure, and thought to be profound, or an easy-to-understand work with correct three views and a reasonable plot?" Can it be passed on for a longer time and more extensively?"

Cha Haisheng didn't speak, he was thinking.

"Of course I am not saying that martial arts novels are a type of literature worthy of being passed on, but they have such potential. What have we Chinese advocated since ancient times? It is to draw a sword to strike at a disagreement; it is a scholar who dies for his confidant; One word can destroy the country, honor righteousness and trustworthiness, and do not hesitate to die.

Martial arts novels are born with such genes, and it is possible for martial arts novels to produce masterpieces with universally recognized value like The Count of Monte Cristo.

The problem is that if we all treat it as a snake and a beast, as a nonsense, then it will be like a crop left in the field, and eventually become a weed with no value.

Value is never created, but artificially endowed. As long as we write well enough, it can become a good work that everyone praises.On this point, countless predecessors have proved it for us. "

Whether it should be said or not, He Ping's mouth really has the ability to bring the dead back to life, and Liu Jun and the others were ashamed by He Ping's words.

Looking at Teacher He's consciousness, he is indeed a senior master who can write works such as "Fugui" and "Lu Deshui".

There is no good or bad in the text, it all depends on the writing.

The height of the creator determines the upper limit of the quality of literary works. Liu Jun feels that he has been taught a solid lesson today.

After hearing He Ping's words, Lin Yanzhi admired him immensely.

He grew up in an official family since he was a child, and he matured earlier than his peers in terms of thinking mode and conduct, which is why he was able to serve as the chairman of the Mizuki Student Union in his sophomore year.

In his opinion, He Ping's words are not particularly clever, but what is commendable is He Ping's mentality.

You want to help others with your own things, but they don't want to see your things. This is a typical case of rushing instead of buying and selling.If it was on him, Lin Yanzhi was sure that he would never break it apart like this and explain it to them, and it would be good to leave without turning his head.

But He Ping was able to do it, and Lin Yanzhi felt that He Ping was worth making friends with.

He doesn't have any ill feeling for literary works like martial arts novels, on the contrary he has some good feelings.Because of family reasons, he heard that martial arts novels are also bedside reading materials for great people.With such fans at the top, the development of martial arts novels will not be bad.

Lin Yanzhi thought that Teacher He's vision was really accurate.

He Ping's words made Liu Jun and the others ponder for a long time, and at the same time, they were shaken by the thoughts they had always held in their hearts.

Maybe he's right.

Several people had such an idea in their hearts, and they looked at each other to try.

Luo Yihe tentatively said, "How about... let's try?"

Someone took the lead, and the few people let go of their burdens, and the heavy psychological burden was left behind at once.

Liu Jun asked He Ping curiously, "Teacher He, tell us what kind of story you want to write? We haven't read martial arts novels yet."

The rhetoric was not in vain, and He Ping felt very relieved.

"I've been thinking about this story for a long time. I can say responsibly that the framework is absolutely grand and meticulous. As long as you write it with your heart, you won't dare to say it as a masterpiece, but it should be possible to spread it widely." He Ping boasted first. After a while, these boys have to have a little confidence.

"The story goes like this. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Yingzong Menglang led a large army to march in person, and he didn't want to cause a civil fort change..."
