Chapter 381 Fight to the death!

The story told in the book "War and Peace" takes place against the historical background of the Russian Patriotic War. The various events described in the book all have the huge impact of this war. That’s why I say that the theme of this book is war.

The background of the book "Gone with the Wind" is somewhat similar to that of "War and Peace", both are wars. However, this book describes the American Civil War. Although the themes are somewhat different, they are generally an indictment of war.

It can be said that "Gone with the Wind" and "War and Peace" are essentially the same type of books.

With the global release of "Gone with the Wind", the international literary community, readers, and even publishers from various countries began to go crazy.

The famous American writer Mike Howson publicly stated, "This is the greatest interpretation and annotation of American history! Although the book "Gone with the Wind" uses an abstract writing technique, it is not difficult to see that the Civil War described in the book, It has the shadow of the Unification War of the United States. The author Ye deconstructed and reorganized the Unification War that existed in real history, and created a Civil War that did not exist. It seems to be a distortion of history, but in fact it is just the opposite. I think This is the real brilliance of the author. He used his own way to reinterpret the historical significance of the Unification War. At the same time, he used a very high level of humanistic care to describe the deep-seated relationship between the general public and the national situation of that era..."

It can be seen that this top writer from the United States has a high evaluation of "Gone with the Wind". Moreover, he is not the only one in the American literary world who thinks so. Many well-known writers and professors have this view.

In a literary analysis class at the most famous university in the United States, the professor took out "Gone with the Wind" that he had asked someone to buy, and said to his students, "This book from the other side of the ocean has so many needs. A place where we learn and learn from each other. I hope that all the students here today will have a copy in your hands tomorrow. I don’t know if this book can win this year’s Johnson Literary Award, but I know that it must be of interest to the entire human race. A shining pearl in the history of literature.”

Some media have publicly reported, "A young Eastern writer has written the most wonderful work in the history of American literature! This is the darkest day in the American literary world, and it is also the brightest day. Because on this day, the whole world because of This book really considers the far-reaching impact of the unification war. But unfortunately, it does not belong to the United States."

Because of the background of the book "Gone with the Wind", the response from the American literary world was very strong this time. Similarly, readers in the United States are also extremely active.

"This book is so well written."

"I really didn't expect that there is really a book as good as "War and Peace"."

"Wrong, this book is better than "War and Peace"!"

"Yes, looking at the historical background of the country, the sense of immersion is still stronger."

"It's also easier to understand."

"I now understand why "War and Peace" was so popular in Russia. Now when I read "Gone with the Wind", I really understand how Russian netizens felt at that time. There is a feeling of tears in my eyes. I don’t know why.”

"The only drawback is that this book is so popular that I really can't buy it."

"Yes, damn the printing house, why don't they print more? Is the machine not working? Or is it intentional? It can't be that they don't want this book to become popular in the United States, right?"

"Such an idea is very scary. Our country is a very open and tolerant country. Moreover, with the greedy face of capitalists, there is no reason to have money without making money. It must be that the speed of printing cannot keep up with the speed of sales."

"This book is really great."

"So much better than War and Peace."

……

Sales of "Gone with the Wind" are extremely popular in Japan, South Korea, Europe, Central Asia and other parts of the world. Perhaps because of the foundation laid by the previous "War and Peace", the popularity of "Gone with the Wind" at this time has surpassed the original "War and Peace".

The topic is even more active than before.

In response to this situation, the jury of the Yu Anshun Literary Award immediately became numb.

"Oh, God!"

"Who can tell me what is going on?"

"This young author named Ye Luo, isn't he only in his 20s? How did he do it?"

"Another world-class bestseller!"

"Not just a bestseller, this is true literature!"

"This is really bad, what should we do now?"

"In my opinion, let him be shortlisted. There are so many fans of these two books now that we have no reason to stop him anymore."

"No! Let him be shortlisted? Then won't all our previous efforts be in vain? And how can we explain it to the superiors?"

"Damn it! Don't those politicians above have no brains? No matter which of these two books, "War and Peace" and "Gone with the Wind", they are eligible to win the award? Are they not allowed to be shortlisted? What are they doing? They want us to die! These brainless bitches! They really want us to die!"

"Our website has been flooded with messages! Now the whole world is waiting for our response!"

"What should we do?"

"The more times like this, the more we must grit our teeth and persevere! We must not let this guy named Ye Luo be shortlisted! If we give up at this time, we will probably be laughed to death by the whole world!"

"But everyone is not blind. "War and Peace" can still explain the past by saying that the historical background is wrong. But now there is another book, what other excuse can be used? Do we have to tell the whole world nakedly that we are engaging in shady activities? ? Is the century-old credibility and value of the Johnson Literary Award going to be destroyed in our hands?"

"Lu An, you are wrong. Why can't you use the same reason twice? Is his "Gone with the Wind" set in China? No! We have obviously reminded him, but he still took out a book set in America. As a novel, this is a naked provocation to us!"

"Yes, we have already reminded him. He brought it upon himself!"

"The credibility and value will not decrease. Have you forgotten the work of the British author? He is recognized worldwide as the most popular candidate for the award! His new book is also a world-class work of quality! Like this If my work wins an award, is there any problem?"

Upon hearing this, the two groups of people who were originally very different began to think thoughtfully.

The British candidate's name is Roland, which is translated as Roland. He is a recognized literary giant in Western Europe. At only forty years old, he has already won all the important literary awards in Western Europe. Although the shortlist for this Johnson Literary Award has not yet been announced, Roland is almost universally recognized as the most likely writer to win the award.

And the book "Happy Life" he released last year is also worthy of his reputation. Once it was released, it caused a huge sensation and popularity around the world. Cumulative sales directly broke the highest record in British history. It even ranks very high on the best-seller list around the world.

Even within just one year of its release, some media have claimed that this book is qualified to become one of the "Top Ten Masterpieces in the World".

If the final winner of this year's Johnson Literary Award is this Roland and his "Happy Life", then there doesn't seem to be a big problem.

After all, when he won the award, he was expected to win it.

Of course, the two books "War and Peace" and "Gone with the Wind" caused quite a stir. But Roland's book took longer to be released, and its impact is naturally greater.

As a result, the Johnson Literary Award jury continued to withstand the huge pressure from book fans around the world and released the review results this time: "It deviates from the theme of Li Huaxia literature and does not meet the Johnson Literary Award selection criteria and will not be accepted."

The reason for rejection was exactly the same as last time.

This time, it has completely ignited the anger of book fans around the world.

Russian netizens raged: "Man, you are as stupid as a bottle cork!"

"idiot!"

"Damn! It's like hell!"

Not to be outdone, American netizens were no less angry than the Russians this time, and directly blocked the official website of the Johnson Literary Award.

"Bitch!"

"The shady story is so obvious? Where are your brains?" "When did the review of the Johnson Literary Award include a historical background screening? Do you mean that Chinese people cannot write about the great America? This is simply ridiculous!"

"This will be the beginning of the burying of the Johnson Literary Prize."

"You guys really make me sick!"

"Fuck your mother, Long time. I think this is the only sentence that can express the anger in my heart."

Many American netizens don't think anything is wrong. They just watch the fun. However, this is simply unacceptable to American book fans. For such a good book, why don’t you even give it a nomination for the Johnson Literary Award?

Rush!

Give them all to me!

Angry fans directly destroyed the official website of the Johnson Literary Award.

In major literary forums around the world, book lovers from all over the world are angrily posting.

People from Japan, Central Asia, Western Europe, etc., regardless of nationality or camp, are all venting their anger towards one goal.

Even large-scale rallies and demonstrations broke out in many places.

Especially in Europe and the United States, there are many crazy book lovers, holding copies of "War and Peace" or "Gone with the Wind" in their hands, running to playgrounds, streets, and the gates of certain local departments... shouting "Let literature return to literature" and "Don't be shady" and a series of slogans.

crazy!

It’s just crazy!

Major media outlets also rushed to report on it, and this incident was instantly pushed to the forefront.

Even a governor of the United States publicly said in a TV interview, "I don't understand why it is like this? Is the threshold for the Johnson Literary Award so high now?" He raised his copy of "Gone with the Wind" and said, He shook his head and said with a puzzled look on his face: "This book can't even be nominated? It's unimaginable."

Subsequently, the governor won the support of a large number of book fans during the critical period of the transition.

There is also a similar public uproar in China. Although it is not as intense as abroad, the domestic participation and attention are definitely unmatched by foreign countries.

Because Ye Luo is so famous in China, everyone is really paying attention to the Johnson Literary Award.

When the news came that the second application failed, the whole country was in an uproar! Public opinion is boiling!

"I failed the background check again? What the hell is this reason?"

"Fuck him! The last winner of this literature award was the Frenchman. Didn't he write novels with a British historical background? Oh, he can even win the award for his co-authorship, and even here we have You can’t even be shortlisted? What the fuck!”

"It's simply too much!"

"Teacher Ye, ignore them. These two books of yours have proven that our Chinese literary world is absolutely amazing!"

"Indeed! There is no need for any bullshit awards to prove that a literary giant like Mr. Ye can be born."

Not only were netizens and fans furious, but even China's four major media outlets personally took action.

Almost everyone posted articles about this matter.

Although the words are quite reserved, it is no surprise that the attitudes of the four major media outlets are extremely dissatisfied with the Johnson Literary Award jury! There are even extremely intense words such as "extremely shocked", "unbelievable", "playing with fire and self-immolation" etc. appearing in the article.

Moreover, this is not a media company.

This is what the four major official media outlets denounced at the same time!

This shows how far this matter has developed.

But this time, like last time, the Chinese Academy of Literature disappeared.

No response or statement.

It's like this didn't happen.

But three days later, there was finally some movement on the Chinese Academy’s Weibo and official website.

Not a statement, not a response.

"Teacher Ye's latest book "Les Misérables" will be sold globally soon! Stay tuned."

Another promotional update!

The word count is very small.

The content is also quite simple.

However, it shocked the entire world's literary world and collectively lost its voice!

new book!

They have a new book again!

Some people haven't even finished watching "Gone with the Wind".

There is another new book on sale!

This is not high-yield, this is simply a printing press!

Is this a perfect printing machine?

Of course, what shocked everyone the most was not Ye Luo's creative speed. After all, no one knows whether he has any manuscripts of these books.

What shocked everyone the most was Ye Luo's attitude!

He was rejected by the jury twice in a row.

And he was rejected twice for the same reason!

Everyone thought that Ye Luo would angrily announce the launch of the competition for the Johnson Literary Award.

However, Ye Luo didn't do this!

Instead, a new book is released again!

This is a tough fight with the Johnson Literary Award!

indeed.

That's what Ye Luo thought.

We must fight to the death with him!

Not included?

If you don’t include it, I’ll keep posting it!

Didn’t you say it doesn’t fit the Chinese cultural background? I won’t write books with a Chinese background yet!

"War and Peace" is set in Russia.
