Chapter 557 The international literary world needs a Chinese to carry the banner
For some reason, Lin Xuan felt a little uncomfortable seeing these Huaxia journalists weeping excitedly.

Only the Huaxia reporter wept.

As for other Western reporters, princes and nobles at the scene and other guests, no matter how excited they were, they could only applaud vigorously, and it was impossible to shed tears.Lin Xuan couldn't think of a reason for their tears.

So the more this happened, the more Lin Xuan felt a little suffocated.

He wanted to ask why those Chinese reporters were crying.Just proud of him?

Perhaps there are other reasons.

Back to seat.

Lin Xuan has not spoken yet.

Ye Youlei's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Brother Xuan, you're so amazing. Haha, you beat everyone tonight."

"Be polite."

Ye Tingyu frowned and stared at him.

Ye Youlei waved his hand: "Sister, you don't need to be elegant at this time, but to be high-profile. Because we have high-profile capital, brother Xuan, don't you think so? Look at the major links of the royal family banquet tonight, you are The absolute protagonist, right? Especially in this kind of international occasion, we Chinese people should show the high-profile and imposing manner we should have!"

"Snapped!"

What greeted him was Lin Xuan's slap.

After Ye Youlei sat down angrily.

Lin Xuan only waved his hand to let the person in charge of Big Cat's live broadcast and other reporters go back, and then said in a low voice, "Tingyu, do you understand the situation? Why are those Huaxia reporters crying?"

Ye Tingyu glanced at many Huaxia reporters who were still wiping away tears, his eyes became a little complicated, and he smiled lightly: "They are proud of you, senior."

Lin Xuan said: "It's impossible to be so excited that you are so proud, right?"

He didn't think he was so attractive. He was not familiar with these reporters at all. It was probably the first time for many reporters to see him, so Lin Xuan didn't understand.

"Senior."

Ye Tingyu's voice suddenly had an inexplicable aura.

Lin Xuan showed an expression of listening carefully.

Ye Tingyu said softly: "Actually, this is not the first time I have gone abroad. Since I was a child, because of the family business, my parents and grandfather have often taken me to and from home and abroad."

Lin Xuan nodded, he could easily guess this point.The children of a big family like Ye Tingyu were given the best education and the best horizon expansion from an early age.

It is better to travel thousands of miles to read thousands of books.

Only the more knowledge you have, the broader your mind and the higher your vision.It will make a person grow better.

"So it's not the first time I've attended a Western banquet. I've come and gone seven or eight times. But every time at these high society banquets in the West, we Chinese people are almost transparent."

There are memories in Ye Tingyu's eyes.

"It can be said that basically no one has looked at us with a straight eye. Even our participation in the banquet is an opportunity obtained by my parents with money or transactions. But even so, my parents still cherish these banquets .Because if you can participate in the banquet, you can make friends with the rich and powerful in the West. Let your products open up the international market. Otherwise, if you can’t even enter a high-end banquet. In business, others don’t even have the opportunity to negotiate Neither will be given to you."

Lin Xuan was taken aback: "So realistic?"

Ye Tingyu smiled: "There are many more realistic ones. Participating in high society banquets is just one of them. If you think about it, even attending a banquet is so difficult, then the discrimination and white eyes we encountered at the banquet should be How many? In other words, many times we can’t even see the discrimination of others. It is the most helpless for others to completely treat you as a transparent person. As for these Chinese media reporters, they encounter similar situations almost every day. They have suffered so much discrimination, unfair treatment, ridicule and contempt... It can be said that they are the group of people who understand the status of Chinese people in the West. So today, seeing the seniors, you can crush them by yourself They are so excited when they press the audience."

Lin Xuan understood a little bit.

But he still frowned and said, "Ting Yu, why do you think Westerners have such a strong prejudice against us Easterners?"

"Several reasons."

Ye Tingyu thought for a while and said: "The first is historical reasons, and the second is technological development issues. Seniors, you must know these two issues, so I won't talk nonsense. The third is cultural export reasons.

It can be said that among these three reasons: cultural output is the most important.

When I was in college, I also did research on this matter.I found that the prejudice of Westerners against island countries, sticks and other countries is not as serious as ours.Why?Just because their international cultural output is much stronger than ours.

Although the island country is small, it has many well-known writers and cartoonists in the world.The international circulation of these people's works can well spread the culture of their country to the West, so that many Westerners can understand their cultural heritage.

Not to mention Bangzi Country, the Korean entertainment industry is popular all over the world, and this alone is enough for many Western countries to understand them.

But what about us?

Westerners actually know very, very little about us.

Surveys show that almost [-]% of Westerners' understanding of us is still in the era of big pot meals fifty years ago.More than [-]% of people even think that we are still in the age of braids.

why?
Because our cultural exports to foreign countries are too little, they have no chance and no way to understand the development of our China, so they have a deep-rooted prejudice against us in their bones. "

Lin Xuan was silent in his heart.

He also understands this point.

Why did Huaxia in the previous life spend huge sums of money to host the Olympic Games and Asian Games?

I just want to take this opportunity to let the world know that the Eastern power has risen, and that it is no longer the old sick man of East Asia.Let ordinary people in the West know that China has risen.

Ye Tingyu sighed in his eyes: "Actually, for so many years, Huaxia has been promoting its own culture internationally. But the effect has been minimal. Because cultural export is not only done by the country, but also by its own ability. Our Huaxia arrived So far, there is still no internationally renowned great writer, great poet, or great writer. As for good animation, TV series, and movies, there are also no international ones. How do you let ordinary people understand us?"

Speaking of it.

Ye Tingyu's eyes became serious: "Cultural export is the most important way for the world to understand China. Because only culture can not be affected by time, space, history, war... any factor, in everyone's mind For example, the poems and short stories you wrote at the French royal banquet today, senior, when they are circulated in the literary world, countless literary lovers will read them. If they like your works, they will read them. Understand you, and then understand the country behind you. The cultural export effect produced by this is far from immeasurable.

Therefore, the significance of a great writer to a country's cultural output is even far greater than the efforts of the entire country. "

Lin Xuan nodded secretly.

Before this, he had hardly thought about this question.It's just that many Westerners are prejudiced against them, but they haven't investigated the reasons. Only after hearing Ye Tingyu's words today did he feel enlightened.

Ye Tingyu obviously really researched this matter.

So it makes sense.

She continued: "Senior, although you are an international piano master, you have a high prestige in the international high society. But in fact, it is only limited to the high society. In the international arena, ordinary people rarely know your name. With literature In comparison, the influence of piano can be said to be less than one percent or even one thousandth of that of literature. After all, piano is basically only accessible to rich people, but literature? As long as you are literate, you can enjoy the beauty of words. The two cannot be compared in the same breath.

Why did I just say that a great writer can have a huge impact on the promotion of a country's culture?
Because international great writers can not only promote their own works, but also carry the banner for the literati in their own country! "

Carry the flag for the literati of your country!
At this moment, Lin Xuan's heart suddenly trembled.

That's right.

A true literary giant is not only famous for his own works, but also able to drive other domestic literati to step out of the world with his own fame.

Just like in China now, basically no one's literary works can be placed on the bookshelves of other countries.It's not that Huaxia's works are bad, but that no one is interested in them.

But if China can produce a literary master, it will be different.

When this literary giant can win international recognition and his works are popular all over the world.Then many readers will definitely be interested in the works of other Chinese writers, and then a circle of conscience will arise.

Ye Tingyu said: "So, almost everyone in the Chinese literary world hopes that Huaxia can produce a giant in the international literary world, and then lead everyone to go abroad. At that time, it must be able to lead the Chinese literary world out of the country and open up a new situation. . Gradually achieve the most critical cultural output.”

Lin Xuan was silent for a long time.

After a while, he suddenly said: "Then you mean that the "Life Like a Summer Flower" and "Chameleon" I wrote tonight have a certain effect on the export of Chinese culture?"

Ye Tingyu nodded: "There must be, but I'm not sure how effective it will be. After all, a poem or a short story is still far from enough to have an impact on the international literary world. A real literary giant is not just one or two Works can gain a firm foundation in the literary world, but many classic works have enough impact on the literary world."

Lin Xuan said again: "I remember, Huaxia still has literary works that are internationally famous, right? It's that... ahem, "Three-Body Problem". It seems that it has sold [-] to [-] million copies internationally."

"Three bodies?"

Ye Tingyu didn't see Lin Xuan's slightly embarrassed expression, and laughed dumbfoundedly: "The Three-Body Problem is just a sci-fi work, and its influence is limited to sci-fi fans. Strictly speaking, it can't be considered a traditional literary work. So it won’t have any impact on the literary world at all.”

"Is that so?"

Lin Xuan rubbed his eyebrows.

He suddenly remembered one thing: he seems to be the ambassador of Chinese culture?
But since he got this title, he doesn't seem to have deliberately done anything to promote Chinese culture.

Thinking of this, a crazy idea gradually rose in Lin Xuan's mind: "This time, I finally went abroad and came into contact with literature. Or... I will carry the banner for China's literary world next time?"

Ah!
Ok, deal!
