Tokyo: The life of a literary giant begins with home self-defense!

Chapter 275 Mutual Learning among Civilizations and the Reconstruction of World Literature 3
The Hongo campus of the University of Tokyo.

The gray-brown buildings are very quiet, and the ancient buildings are basically European style.

The vast forests and lakes are swaying in green during the rainy season, and the literature department's club building is swaying with pleasant warm lights.

“I heard those people from Princeton are here again.”

The literature club is different from the literature department. Anyone who is interested in literature can join.

Discuss favorite works and hold occasional exchange meetings.

at this time.

Several students were chatting in the literature department about recent events in the school.

Princeton University in the United States is ranked higher in the world than the University of Tokyo, but some of them showed some disdain.

"What's there to say? I come here every year."

If it is true as Ryukawa Tetsu said that "Mutual Learning among Civilizations and the Reconstruction of World Literature" is a literary and cultural invasion, then the effect of this invasion movement that started in the United States is not obvious.

Every year there is a lot of thunder but little rain.

The basic opening topic was "The concept of world literature has been a judgment since its inception, with a strict set of Western-centric standards behind it." Everyone debated with each other, and then ended with a scholar from the University of Tokyo saying that you don't understand Japanese literature at all.

The exchange and integration of culture and literature is itself a very difficult task, not to mention that Japan's Heian-kyo culture was passed down from ancient China.

From the magnificent "Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci" to his own "The Tale of Genji".

Even if Japan's own national culture cannot occupy a dominant position in world literature, it will not be simply invaded and changed like Latin America.

It still has the long-standing aesthetics of mono no aware and the contemplative mysterious culture.

In addition to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and college professors being on high alert every year, students at the University of Tokyo are accustomed to a group of foreigners coming to visit every year.

"Hey, have you read the latest issue of New France Magazine?"

The people from Princeton had nothing to talk about, and one of the girls made eyes at several other students.

Pure literature is mostly serious, but girls still prefer to chat about gossip.

If Ryuukawa Toru were here, he would be able to recognize several of the people present.

Takeda Akane, Natsume Fuyumi, and a few other students I met at the Youth Award.

A girl with a bob haircut mysteriously took out the "New French Review". This international literary journal published in France, like the "Yomiuri Shimbun" some time ago, printed a photo of a man and a woman.

The boy wore a linen suit and the girl wore a traditional Japanese kimono.

[Two flagship authors appeared at the same time. Is Japanese literature about to rise? ]

The title of the article is very eye-catching, and the author is the well-known French editor Anne Erno.

The article briefly commented on the literary styles of the two. Anne Erno described Natsuko Imamura as "the Kafka of the East", while Ryukawa Toru was described as "weird, the styles of the works are too different to comment on."
-
I have never seen such an arrogant Oriental man. I don't see any subtlety or restraint in him.

The French female editor seemed to have a lot of opinions about him, but she didn't elaborate on why she said Longchuan Che was an arrogant woman. She just suggested that everyone take a look at his works.

"What a good match, you two."

The girl simply read the contents of the literary magazine, turned around and laughed like a nympho, and drew a peach heart on the photos of Ryukawa Toru and Imamura Natsuko.

They both became famous at a young age and came from the same place, so some people have already paired them together.

"I heard that you two were born on the same day of the same month of the same year."

Fans of Oota Kaori, Ryukawa Toru and Imamura Natsuko explain their life stories to people around them like some star-chasers.

"If this isn't a match made in heaven, what is?"

It was not until the two became really famous that some people were surprised to find that the two most talented young people in the Japanese literary world had a coincidence of being born in the same family.

The same young talents, a very romantic fate.

Now many people in Japan are looking for CP with Ryukawa Tetsushu.

"If you have a brain disease, why don't you get it treated?"

This woman kept talking about this in front of him again and again, and Takeda Akane looked a little annoyed.

She didn't know why Ryukawa Toru was getting closer and closer to the girl she hated, Imamura Natsuko, and she felt very annoyed when she saw the two faces appear on the same page.

Ryuukawa Toru is annoyed by his increasing fame, and she is even more annoyed when he is with Imamura Natsuko.

Some people who destroy her character told the other party to check their brains. When Natsume Fuyumi reminded her, she realized and apologized. She is a good girl in school and usually does not show a bad character except when facing Ryuukawa Toru.

"I just think that people with corrupt personal ethics are not worthy of Xia Zi."

After giving a slightly veiled explanation, Takeda Akane said to Oota Kaori in a tone that Ryukawa Toru was not worthy of Imamura Natsuko.

"He doesn't work hard on his creations, and does whatever he wants after achieving a little success. How can such a person be worthy of Xia Zi?"

Because of her beauty, the eldest lady seems to be more popular among passers-by than Ryukawa Toru.

Kaori Oota was just frightened by the other party's direct tone, but after hearing what the other party said, she reacted and spoke.

"Akane-chan is a fan of Mr. Imamura's books?"

Not a fan of the book at all, he wishes the two of them would die together?
Takeda Akane nodded.

In order to maintain her image, she could only act as a fan of Imamura's book.

"Ryukawa Tetsu has poor personal ethics and cheated in the group portrait award. Officials from the Writers Association and the Ministry of Education are already considering whether to ban him from publishing in the future."

Cheating can be a big or small matter. Now someone is fanning the flames. When Ryukawa Toru didn't know about it, Takeda Akane had already found out about his subsequent social public opinion handling.

"so serious?"

Kaori Oota's eyes widened. It was fatal that a writer could not publish.

"uh-huh."

Takeda Akane raised her eyebrows with some excitement. She didn't know why Ryukawa Toru was so stupid as to contact the participating authors.

However, she was very happy to see Longchuan completely disgraced.

"Some people think that they can turn from a pheasant into a phoenix by walking out of the lake in the mountains, but in fact, it is just a temporary luck."

Akane Takeda picked up the teacup on the mahogany table and took a sip.

"He is not worthy of Imamura-sensei. Don't discuss them together in the future."

After the girl finished speaking, Oota Kaori nodded in agreement.

There are two suns, one is about to fall into the abyss forever, and the other has just risen.

From this perspective, Ryukawa Toru is indeed not worthy of Imamura Natsuko.

Put down the teacup and go out with Natsume Fuyumi.

Both of them are from the Art Department and occasionally come together to participate in club activities in the Literature Club.

The matter of Lake Yamanaka was put aside by the two women, each with their own thoughts, and they became good friends again.

"Has Xiao Qian not contacted your brother recently?"

Not many people know that Ryukawa Toru is Takeda Akane's brother. Natsume Fuyumi glanced at the girl.

She looks pure and cute, but she has a heart of a vicious snake.

There was a congressman's son pursuing her in the school, but she actually tricked him into putting pressure on certain organizations to ban Ryuukawa Toru.

Natsume Fuyumi didn't know why the other party hated Ryukawa Toru so much, and could only attribute it to the fact that Ryukawa Toru had offended her.

"That kind of person?"

Takeda Akane raised her eyebrows and was about to say, "Have you ever seen an owner take the initiative to look for a puppy?"
Ding ding ding.

Takeda Akane's cell phone rang.

Natsume Fuyumi saw the other person's eyebrows raised, showing happiness and joy that she had never seen before.

【Ryukawa Tetsu】

It was the brother she said she would never contact.

Natsume Fuyumi saw the other party pick up the phone, and then his face suddenly became gloomy.

Natsume Fuyumi swore that she had never seen Takeda Akane with such an ugly face, because the boy over there said.

"Is Natsume Fuyumi with you? I need to see her for something."
