Subtitle of this chapter: No matter how much he has, I think it’s enough to listen to it in the buffet.

"Believe me, Helen. You will have much more readers in the future than the few in it combined!"

Miss Brown, whose self-confidence was greatly hit, had tears in her eyes and asked weakly: "Really?"

Our Master Yuan nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course it's true. When did I deceive you?"

He patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, I, a fool, dare to guarantee that you will become famous, your novels will also become famous, and the movies and stage plays adapted from your novels will become even more popular! You will become the real queen and the queen of love novels."

In fact, the "little fairy in the forest" who was fooled by "Dionisus" many times but did not know that she believed this again. She said excitedly: "Sir Fool, I believe in you!"

"I'll go home now and finish writing "Titanic"!"

"I won't come to see you until I finish writing!"

"Yeah!" Yuan Yan nodded in praise, "This is my queen!"

He gave Mr. McCall a wink and said, "My Majesty, Christmas is coming soon. I have nothing to do these days, and you don't have to come here all the time."

John, a smart man, nodded in understanding. He understood that Neo wanted to spend more time with Helen and urged her to finish writing this novel.

"So, my majesty, see you again on Christmas."

Master Yuan sent away the emperor and the queen, and turned back to the living room. As soon as he entered, he heard that Master Ai Craftsman was arguing with Mr. Fitzgerald. Unfortunately, Master Ai Craftsman's speech was definitely not as good as his writing style. The scene was completely suppressed by Mr. Fitzgerald, who was sharp in his eloquence.

When he saw this, the owner of the literary salon hurriedly inserted it and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I lost my companion just now. By the way, what are you talking about?"

The Ai Craftsman finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him appearing, and said first: "Neo, we are 'discussing' whether Miss Brown's novel has...literariness."

What happened in the living room just now looked like this. After listening to the beginning of "Titanic" recited by Miss Brown, everyone immediately figured out what it was written. In fact, the future "Queen of Love Novels" has no talent in writing, and the social experience is even more shallow and pitiful. Therefore, the things written are inevitably a little pretentious and a little pale.

These professional writers really didn't know how to "evaluate" this novel for a while, and the atmosphere became a little awkward. At this time, in order to "activate" the atmosphere, Mr. Fitzgerald "praise" the novel out loud and clear, and would definitely be welcomed by elementary school girls.

"Helen of Manhattan" was also a daughter from a wealthy family. When she heard this "praise", she was shy and angry and rushed out.

Adult Ai Craftsman has had a good relationship with this kind-hearted and funny girl recently. So he spoke up to defend his colleague's works. After a while, the two of them fell to the "literariness".

"Oh, it turns out you are discussing literary nature."

When Master Yuan heard this word, he frowned. The definition of literary nature is a century-long topic in the literary criticism and theoretical circles throughout the 20th century. Even after a hundred years, it was not concluded, but was pulled into more and more complicated by various people.

Simply put, the so-called "literary nature" refers to making text a literary nature. To put it bluntly, what kind of text can be regarded as literature in the true sense.

However, the simpler the question is, the more complicated the answer is. For example, a female poet named Zhao wrote a poem "One Man in Tennessee", which is just one sentence: There is no doubt that the pie I make is the best in the world.

So is this kind of text considered literature?

Ordinary people may be able to regard this poem as a joke, but if it comes to literary theory, it will definitely be a bit averse. So in the end, people in the literary theory circle tacitly retreat to "textism", that is, the definition of "any verbal form fixed by words is called text". This attitude is equivalent to giving up the pursuit of the definition of literary nature.

In order to ease the atmosphere between the crowd, Mr. Dresse next to him spoke just right and asked, "Neo, what do you think of this problem?"

"Does my opinion..." Master Yuan smiled slightly, "Actually, I think literary nature is not important to novels. Infusing is the purpose and means of each novel. For some novels, Infusing is the reason for its existence; for others, Infusing is the standard it should meet..."

He didn't want to get caught up in such an answer-free question, so he pulled the topic apart.

"In short, everyone's judgment on Infuss listening is different, so everyone's evaluation of novels is different. A novel only needs to make some people think that Infuss listening, and there is no need to deliberately please all readers."

In fact, a public intellectual named Wang, who was considered to be a true meaning, said similar things in the later generations. In order to avoid "picking pickups", Yuan Yanshu made some modifications.

He pointed to Mr. Dresser and Ms. Cather and said, "For example, your novels. One showed me the true face of the American city, and the other made me realize the wilderness that I had never seen before. So your novels are very popular to me."

"And Mr. Fitzgerald..." he walked to the young writer and said, "Like many writers, your debut work, Paradise on Earth, should be considered semi-autobiographical."

The protagonist of "Paradise on Earth" is a typical "confused generation". He was born in a wealthy family, so he became selfish and arrogant. His college years in Princeton intensified his rebellion against the vulgar etiquette of the middle class.

Just when the protagonist was almost losing his life goal, he left his alma mater and rushed to the battlefield. During the war, his mother passed away, and his friends either died in battle or disappeared. After the war, he lost his lover, worked, and his mentor, who had been in charge for many years, also passed away.

The protagonist finally returned to Princeton and finally realized that this is life. No matter what he lacked along the way, at least he had already understood himself.

Master Yuan patted Mr. Fitzgerald on the shoulder and said, "So I learned from your book about life what my American peers think about life. This is enough for listening to it."

"As for Mr. Love Crafts..." He turned around and smiled at everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, you really should read his novels, it's really in the buffet!"

Yuan Yan thought to himself, as for whether your san value will be zero, it's nothing to do with me.
