"Are you in your hometown? Have you returned to Xihe? Why didn't you tell me when you came back?" Ning Chunyan couldn't believe it.

"Why are you telling me?" Chen Qingluo walked up and down on the ground with bare feet, bluetooth headphones on her ears flashing, "I don't want to go out. Every time I come back, there are a lot of people around me. I can't do anything. It's annoying.

It’s all so annoying.”

"Indeed." Ning Chunyan felt the same, "But then why are you back?"

"Whatever you come back for, I will come back for."

"Oh, it turns out that you also used attending Teacher Li Tingfang's 70th birthday as an excuse to escape from the pressure of life such as academic papers and give your own life a breath of air."

Chen Qingluo said: "That's not true. I have no education. I have to go back to Xihe for about half a month every year to see rural China so that I will not be separated from the people."

Ning Chunyan chuckled. Chen Qingluo said this with resentment, and she knew the origin of this resentment.

Chen Qingluo became famous when she was young. The books she wrote in the early years were not accepted by some seniors, who criticized her for being low-level and not deep-thinking. So she took the postgraduate entrance examination at Nanjing University and then studied for a doctorate. Now those people dare not criticize her level. After all, she was

It is tantamount to slandering NTU and her legacy, and then criticizing her for being out of touch with the people.

Chen Qingluo said: "To be honest, I quite envy you. At least you can still have the weight of your studies. Since I graduated, I have lost all the pressure. Now I feel light and airy. To be honest, I am a little confused."

Ning Chunyan said: "'The unbearable lightness of life', right? 'Women always long to bear the weight of a male body. The heaviest burden also becomes the image of the strongest vitality.'"

Chen Qingluo sneered: "Don't listen to Milan Kundera's nonsense. Whether there is another person's weight, we are all at the top of the food chain in this world. What I need is not the weight of a man, what I need is the weight of money. Mine

There’s not enough money.”

Ning Chunyan said: "No wonder they say your novels are too inorganic and lack human emotions. I sincerely hope that The Little Prince can awaken the fantasy of love in your heart."

"If you want to awaken my fantasy of love, you only need to give me a hormone injection." Chen Qingluo said, "Love is all a prank of the brain and genes."

Ning Chunyan did not answer her, but tapped the keyboard monotonously with her fingers. Chen Qingluo quickly finished reading "The Little Prince's Love Letter" and said to the person on the other end of the phone:

"I understand why you like the little prince."

"Yeah!"

Ning Chunyan put away her hands and picked up her phone excitedly: "I knew you would also appreciate him! He is really special!"

Chen Qingluo commented: "He is not doing speech therapy, but creating. Every word of his can be seen with traces of careful consideration and carving. Even the rhythm of rhetoric and the length of sentences, I can feel his instinct

Considered it.”

Ning Chunyan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this is why we admire the little prince. Many of us believe that although these are speech therapy scripts, the literary nature of them is undeniable."

Chen Qingluo became a little interested: "Look, his first sentence, 'I know you work very hard, and as your friend, I feel sorry for you, but as your boss, I can't show it.' This sentence is very clever.

.

"He started with a heart-to-heart talk with no foreshadowing and no background. It seemed to be meaningless, but in fact, this sentence contained a huge amount of information. It also pointed out the personalities of both parties in the speech therapy. It was a natural progression, and it also intertextualized with the rest of the text. There was a trace of it.

A little romance.”

Ning Chunyan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, and from the first sentence it brings about the conflict between identity and complex interpersonal relationships. This contradiction runs through the entire text from the first sentence."

Chen Qingluo said: "He is not doing speech therapy. He is creating. In fact, this is not a script, but a novel with a special theme."

"right."

"I can guarantee that this little prince doesn't understand women at all in his life."

"Why?"

"Because when he was writing these scripts, what he was thinking in his mind was definitely not 'I want to conquer this woman,' but 'I want to climb the highest mountain of literature so that this woman can definitely feel my awesomeness.'" He

In fact, he doesn’t know how to please a woman, he just clumsily thinks that if he is good enough in literature, he will definitely make the other person feel her.”

"But the women were still pleased."

"Yes. Because you women are all idiots like him." Chen Qingluo said.

"He is like a poet. You are just the object of his singing, and he uses things to express his aspirations. It is like the ancient poems praising plum blossoms and snow. Although it talks about snow or plum blossoms, what he actually wants to express is himself.

"But you plum blossoms and snows, you stupidly listened to it and felt that the poet was shining all over. He didn't please you, and you didn't care about being pleased by him. You were just secretly fascinated."

Ning Chunyan was very unwilling. She clenched her fists tightly, but she could not refute what Chen Qingluo said. Her interpretation was very harsh, but she was right.

After holding it in for a long time, she thought of a retort: ​​"I think you talked too little about the little prince."

"Yeah, after all, I only read one chapter." Chen Qingluo said, "I think I need to emphasize that although he is a bad poet who thinks about how to make poems beautiful, he is not weird. He is not weird at all.

He's not jealous. The reason he's not jealous is that he wants to make money. He doesn't lie to himself about how noble he is."

Most Chinese people understand the word "keqi" through the book "The Unbearable Lightness of Being". If the meaning of this word is explained in a popular way, it is a bit similar to "pretending to be high-profile, using low-cost behavior to make oneself

It appears sacred and sublime.”

For example, "If you don't change, you are not Chinese"; California wildfires burned dozens of people but rescued a cat, and people prayed for the cat and praised life; today is Kobe's birthday and everyone should not fly in helicopters... these are all

It's a weird behavior.

Of course, there are also some people with rich emotions who are really touched by the meaning contained in these things. Opposing kitsch is not against emotion itself, but against hypocritical sublimity and arbitrary kitsch. In other words, everyone is moved.

Sometimes, you must allow someone to be unmoved, and at the same time, you don’t have to pretend to be touched when you are not.

As for the little prince, he is obsessed with literature in speech therapy scripts, but he does not use literature to maintain a sense of psychological superiority. He just truly believes in the power of words and the appeal of literature. He believes that he can use literature

make money.

Chen Qingluo said: "To sum up the above."

"In summary?"

"To sum up, the little prince is not married." Chen Qingluo said categorically, "He is a straight man who only thinks about literature. Why does such a person have a wife?"

…

"The little prince is a literati who takes romance to the extreme." At the table, the man commented, "To put it nicely, it's romance, to put it worst, it's to pick up girls. Picking up girls has literary value."

Next to him, Director Yang wrinkled his nose: "Picking up girls is just picking up girls, and literature is literature. It's irrelevant, so how can picking up girls have literary value?"

Xie Cong waved his hand: "You don't know this. Picking up girls these days is a technical job, so what's the joke? Before graduation, your parents said you dared to try falling in love? After graduation, your parents urged you to get married. How dare you try to find a partner?

"There is so little education about love in our country. Many young people have no experience in interacting with the opposite sex before leaving school, so a love expert like the little prince suddenly appeared and came into being at the right time!"

The man nodded: "Yes! The Little Prince is a product of the deformed literary market we have today. It is vulgar and obscene, but it is also very impressive."

Someone next to me said, "I may say it's obscene, but it really works. Many girls do this. I learned a few of the Little Prince's famous sayings, and they really make the girls happy."

The man laughed loudly: "So I say it's a product of a deformed market! As long as it works these days, it's okay to become popular first. Who cares about the reputation behind you!"

Director Yang shook his head: "I haven't seen it, I've only heard about it. From what you said, I think it still doesn't have much meaning."

"It has no connotation," Xie Cong burped. "What kind of connotation do we need these days? They are all just having fun. People in the literary world are just outsiders. They will praise whoever is popular. Who cares about the seriousness of literature?"

Die early!"

Wang Zixu frowned as he listened. Lin Feng came over and asked softly: "Brother, have you heard of the little prince?"

"No."

"Then why do you feel like you have something to say?"

Wang Zixu was silent for a long time, then whispered: "I just think they are a bit kitsch."

"What does kitsch mean?"
