A healing writer? No, it's a depressing writer!

Chapter 125 I will redefine tragedy!

You want to ask what kind of book "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" is about?
This seems to be really difficult to evaluate!

The scene of the literary and artistic symposium.

The writer Liu Zhenyun was sitting quietly in a corner, holding a copy of "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" in his hand and reading it carefully.

As if I had realized something.
After a long silence, he slowly uttered:
“It seems to describe a tragedy, but it actually tells the philosophy of life?”

In fact, Liu Zhenyun had no memory of a person named Jiang Hai at first.

As a relatively well-known figure in the contemporary literary world, he comes into contact with many people every day, including readers and students.

That is also a lot.

At first, when I received Jiang Hai’s message, I thought it was another request for study from a student from some university, so I didn’t pay much attention.

Until he saw the title of the book "No Longer Human" in the message sent by Jiang Hai.

"This kid is actually writing a new book again?"

It is true that Liu Zhenyun has no impression of Jiang Hai, but his impression of "No Longer Human" is very deep!
This is a classic work that dominates the Japanese literary world!
However, his reply to Jiang Hai was to check it out in the evening.

However, when I really received the physical copy of "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" sent by Jiang Hai, even though I was at the event site, even though I was participating in the event here——

In the end, he couldn't help himself because he loved books so much and started reading on the spot.

Frankly speaking, Liu Zhenyun's impression of No Longer Human is that it is a book that is forced to be sad just for the sake of being sad!

Are you asking if this book is a good book?

Yes, it is.

But what life philosophy can you expect to gain from reading "No Longer Human"?
This is probably really unrealistic!

The success of "No Longer Human" is that it caters to a small number of young people in the market who are obsessed with "sorrow culture". Their spiritual world is extremely depressed and empty. When a book that fits their spiritual world and can even describe their inner pessimism and depression in detail appears on the market——

Naturally, this kind of book will be regarded as a classic and a masterpiece!

But it is obvious that books like "No Longer Human" that use the depiction of "sorrow culture" as a selling point are not very popular among readers with a rich inner world and spiritual world.

This really has no appeal!
To be honest, when Liu Zhenyun learned that Jiang Hai had a new book, he subconsciously thought that Jiang Hai would continue with his previous new book with the theme of "sorrowful culture" as usual?
However, when he began to study the book "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" very carefully, he realized that -

He was wrong!
And it is extremely wrong!
“This is not an ordinary tragedy.”

The similarity between "No Longer Human" and "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" is that both books are defined as tragedies in terms of the tone of the entire text.

But the difference between "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" and "No Longer Human" is that -

He is a kind of tragedy without choice!

This is different from Oba Eizo's attitude towards life, which is to hate everything in the world and take the initiative to let things go.

Xu Sanguan's attitude towards life is very diligent!

He has goodwill towards everything in the world. He loves and looks forward to his future life. No matter how much life tortures him and beats him, he can always -

He never gave up hope for life! "This writing style and power are totally unlike that of a young man"

Flipping through the book "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" in his hand, Liu Zhenyun's expression gradually changed from relaxed at the beginning to solemn.

Through the words in the book, Liu Zhenyun seemed to see a ray of profound and wise soul.

He felt that his spiritual world was communicating and blending with this soul.

Through the words written by this pen——

He saw a young man who had hope and enthusiasm for life. Under the ruthless destruction of the tide of the times, his body, which was originally full of energy and motivation, gradually became shriveled and dry; his eyes, which were originally innocent, gradually became vicissitudes, and his attitude towards life changed from being full of ambition at the beginning to becoming cold and numb to the world around him.
It’s hard to believe that young people can have such writing skills?
It’s hard to imagine that this is a book written by a young person!
He was able to write about an innocent young man, swept away by the tide of the times, from his initial struggle at the bottom of society, to his resignation in middle age, and finally to his despair and numbness in his old age after recognizing the reality.
"This is incredible! This is truly incredible!"

When he was halfway through reading, Liu Zhenyun sat up from his seat, his eyes filled with shock.

Through Xu Sanguan, he seemed to see the tiny figures of their era, thousands and thousands of people who had hope for life but were ruthlessly destroyed by reality.
They fought in that era.

They were also annihilated by that era!
From the perspective of serious literature——

What kind of book can be called a good book?
First, it can arouse strong resonance among readers, and it allows readers to understand their own unique philosophy of life while reading!
Secondly, by telling this philosophy of life, it can depict the turbulent and magnificent waves of an era!
And these two points, it actually——

And it was done by a young man at the same time???
Just as Liu Zhenyun was shocked by the plot described in the book and his inner thoughts could not calm down for a long time.

A staff member came up to him:

"Teacher Liu Zhenyun, it's your turn to speak on stage."

Chenghai Drama Academy, library lecture hall.

The scene was crowded with people.

Today, a big event happened in Chengxi Opera. The actress Kong Xi will come to Chengxi Opera in person to promote her upcoming movie "Fish Leaping into the Nine States"——

Promote and explain to teachers and students!
Thanks to the extremely popular actress Kong Xi, the library's lecture hall, which covers an area of ​​nearly 1500 square meters, was packed!

The entire library auditorium was filled with people!

To be honest, Jiang Hai actually had no interest in such crowded occasions.

Compared to coming to such a scene to make dumplings, he felt it would be more comfortable to go back to the dormitory and lie down.

But there was no way. As early as when Kong Xi arrived at Chengxi Theater, she sent a message to Jiang Hai, asking Jiang Hai to come to the school to participate in the promotion of her new movie "Fish Leaping into the Nine States"!

After all, I still need help from others, and I have already come to my own school's home ground. If I don't show up -

That's really hard to explain!

"Please make way. Excuse me. Please make way."

Jiang Hai squeezed his way from outside the lecture hall to the center of the hall, pushing his way through the crowd.

“There are really a lot of people here.”

Jiang Hai just sat down and took a look at his phone. He was shocked by the hot search terms on his phone:
【Liu Zhenyun: This will be a tragic masterpiece that will subvert the traditional literary world.】
