After the three of them discussed, they decided to publish the Chinese version of "The Old Man and the Sea" and the whole story written by Lin Zixuan.

Yan Duhe is preparing to use "Happy Forest" to publish a special issue to discuss this matter.

The reason for this is that the Newspaper was run by Americans, and the "Shenbao" has long been transferred to the Chinese, and is currently the master of Shiliangcai.

The Newspaper should be more free in the review.

Moreover, the sales volume and influence of "News" are higher than those of "Shen Bao", especially among foreigners.

If you want this news to be published as soon as possible, the Newspaper is the best choice.

In terms of focusing on hot news, Yan Duhe is more courageous and radical than Zhou Shujuan. This is a major event in the literary world this year and will surely cause heated discussions across the country.

One day at the end of October, the full edition of the supplement "Happy Forest" of the Newspaper published "The Old Man and the Sea".

Yan Duhe wrote a comment as editor-in-chief and fully supported Lin Zixuan.

This is using his reputation to guarantee Lin Zixuan. If it is finally proven that Lin Zixuan deceived everyone, then Yan Duhe will also be discredited.

In fact, the safest way is to indicate that this article belongs to the author’s personal opinion and has nothing to do with this newspaper.

This way you can clear it up.

But Yan Duhe still did this, which was related to his personality.

He is a person with integrity, courage, knowledge, and a sense of justice, and has a national integrity.

Later, during the War of Resistance Against Japan, Wang Jingwei wanted to reap his reputation in the press, but he repeatedly won over it, but was rejected.

Yan Duhe doesn't believe that the author who can write "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will be a person who deceives the world and steals the reputation. Now that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to be completed, everyone can see that this is a pioneering masterpiece.

It elevates the story of the past small-format Jianghu to the height of the country and nation, and the level of martial arts novels suddenly rises.

Nowadays, many literati in Shanghai are imitating "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". In the teahouse, the most popular book that storytellers tell is the story of Guo Jing and Huang Rong.

Do people in such literary world need to compete for the copyright of a novella?

Even if this novel is praised by Americans, so what? Can it be compared with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?

This is because Yan Duhe did not realize the influence of "The Old Man and the Sea" abroad. As time goes by, the status of "The Old Man and the Sea" will only increase and higher, which is why Lin Zixuan is fighting for.

He didn't remember much foreign novel, so how could he let Ji Hongming take away one?

As soon as "Happy Forest" was released, it caused an uproar in the domestic literary world.

This year can be said to be a very lively year in the literary world.

At the beginning of the year, Zhou Zuoren and others established the literary research association, followed by Guo Moruo and others established the Creation Society, and then the dispute over the founders of new poetry, and now there is another incident of impersonation.

The person who was still liked Ji Hongming two days ago was fooled. What is the rhythm?

Lin Zixuan wrote about the incident in the newspaper.

I wrote two novels, "The Old Man and the Sea" and "The Little Prince" before I left the United States. Because I was not good at English, I asked Mr. Ji Hongming to translate it into English. Later, I sought publication in New York, but I was repeatedly rejected. I had to send it to "Atlantic Monthly" before leaving the United States.

Unexpectedly, the novel was published, but I had already returned to China.

Now looking at the report, Mr. Ji Hongming became famous in the United States because of "The Old Man and the Sea", which is very puzzling. I will explain it here.

Although Lin Zixuan's writing is very subtle and does not clearly point out Ji Hongming's bad behavior as an author, anyone can see the author's true meaning. Moreover, this author is not an unknown person, but a well-known poet in the literary world.

Creation and translation cannot be compared.

According to Guo Moruo, creation is a "virgin" and translation is a "matchmaker", how can you interfere in your affairs?

The Newspaper has sent a telegram to their reporters in the United States, asking Ji Hongming to confirm the matter.

If Ji Hongming admitted that he had just translated the novel, then there was still room for something to turn around. If he didn't admit it, the matter would get bigger and bigger.

So before receiving Ji Hongming's reply, Lin Zixuan's words were more tactful.

Ji Hongming met a reporter from the Newspaper in a high-end apartment outside New York University. This was a place he rented with the manuscript fees prepaid by the publisher, which was quite luxurious.

He could not imagine such a place before.

At this time, Ji Hongming was wearing a brand new suit and shiny leather shoes. He was confident in the face of the reporter and talked freely.

"News News" is the leading newspaper in China. If this newspaper can help him promote it, his reputation in China will be even more famous.

The reporter sitting opposite was quite embarrassed. Before he could ask questions, Ji Hongming began to talk to himself.

Ji Hongming has said these words countless times in front of the American media, and he is very familiar with them, so he can speak out.

"Mr. Ji, a man named Lin Zixuan in China said that he wrote "The Old Man and the Sea" and you are only responsible for the translation. I wonder if it is true?" The reporter took advantage of the situation and asked a question when Ji Hongming paused.

Ji Hongming was shocked, but his face did not show it, but instead showed an incredible expression.

He was prepared for this kind of scene, but he didn't expect Lin Zixuan to pursue it so quickly, less than half a month later.

"Haha, how is that possible?" Ji Hongming laughed, "I know Zixuan. We are good friends. I lived with him for a while. When I wrote "The Old Man and the Sea", I lived in the same apartment with him. He was joking."

This is the rhetoric he prepared to portray Lin Zixuan as his good friend. If Lin Zixuan pursues it, it will be Lin Zixuan's jealousy after seeing him succeed.

"It's not a joke. Mr. Lin has published "The Old Man and the Sea" in domestic newspapers, claiming that he is the author of the novel." The reporter said in a deep voice, "Are you denying Mr. Lin's statement?"

"That's natural. "The Old Man and the Sea" is my work. I showed it to him after I finished writing it. How could he do this? We are the best friends." Ji Hongming said indignantly.

"I will tell Mr. Lin your words." The reporter said.

He is a reporter from the Newspaper, and he naturally has a bias in his heart.

Once he believed that Ji Hongming pretended to be Lin Zixuan and possessed the fame and fortune he had obtained in "The Old Man and the Sea", he felt disgusted when he saw Ji Hongming's performance.

After the reporter left, Ji Hongming's face became gloomy and his hands were trembling.

Judging from the reporter's reaction, Lin Zixuan will not give up. You, a rich child, are you fighting with me for these things?

However, there is no turning back arrow.

Ji Hongming was preparing to take action first and expose to the American newspaper that Lin Zixuan wanted to occupy "The Old Man and the Sea".

As long as the American media recognizes this, he doesn't believe that Lin Zixuan can still make tricks in the United States.

A few days later, Lin Zixuan waited for news from the United States, but Ji Hongming refused to admit it and slandered Lin Zixuan to American newspapers.
