Chapter 39: It’s the right age to make a breakthrough. Although Li Daohua is very unconvinced…
Although she was very dissatisfied with Li Daohua's evaluation of the Nobel Prize in Literature, that did not stop her from explaining what kind of stories America liked more.
Personal heroism, doing whatever one wants, human rights first, money first...
Never mind what you really think in your heart, at least this is what America advocates to the outside world.
"But, isn't this just selfishness? If the whole country is full of people like this, how can we build a country?"
Nowadays, many young people are admitted to universities with great enthusiasm to learn knowledge and build the motherland.
They couldn't understand how America could become number one in the world if this was the case.
"Today we will only talk about literature, we will talk about these later."
At this time, Li Daohua noticed a boy who was raising his hand very actively, and was even jumping up and down to get her attention.
The boy was standing in the back of the crowd. It was not easy for him to stand for such a long time from the beginning to now.
"Do you have any questions?"
“How do you feel about other people’s criticism of you?”
"Accept it with an open mind, correct it if there is any, and encourage it if there is none."
??? The students and teachers present all had a puzzled look on their faces. Is this answer correct? This answer is probably the most outrageous answer in this exchange meeting.
"I feel like you didn't accept it with an open mind. You even made a big fuss in the newspaper..."
“When I didn’t write an article in response, I was just accepting it with an open mind. When I responded, it was just a discussion with each other. How can the affairs of writers be called quarrels?
I think I have plenty of time to be open-minded and accept things. I don’t write articles and discuss things with people every day and every moment.”
If you say so, then we have nothing to say.
"Teacher Daohua, after Li Lai Te arrived in America, the curtains in his house were red. Does this mean that he still cares about his country?"
Here it comes, reading comprehension is late but it’s here.
"Because the curtains in my house were red at the time, if the curtains in my house were green, then the curtains in Lilater's house in the book would also be green."
"Teacher Daohua..."
After getting through the initial period, things became much easier afterwards. Li Daohua even had time to share her experiences.
The exchange meeting lasted until 5:30, but the school was about to end and Li Daohua also had to go home for dinner. She had to eat at Peking University before going home, and it was getting dark that day.
Li Daohua provides everyone with a small idea and recommends that everyone can try to write some anti-traditional stories.
“For example, in the traditional American story of the princess and the dragon, the princess is usually captured by the dragon and then rescued by the warrior.
You can change your idea, for example, the warrior was captured, or the dragon was subdued by the princess, or the warrior and the dragon cooperated...
There is a market for this kind of anti-traditional writing, and you can try writing about it.”
After assigning the next task which was not really a task to the people present, today's exchange meeting was successfully concluded and she was going home for dinner.
But speaking of it, anti-traditional stories are also very interesting, and she felt that she could write one as well, just as a way of practicing it herself.
The scale of this exchange meeting was not small, especially after hearing some of Li Daohua’s shocking remarks, more people came.
Newspapers in Peking reported on this exchange meeting and also excerpted some of the content.
This includes the controversy surrounding the Nobel Prize in Literature.
Some people saw this and thought that the students and Li Daohua had thought a lot. Is it so easy to win the Nobel Prize in Literature? What kind of people were the previous domestic nominees? What kind of achievements did they have? Who is she, Li Daohua, and what achievements has she made?
Arabian Nights.
When Dennis saw this, he realized that they could actually do this.
He told Ian his idea and Li Daohua's words, and asked him if he could do it.
During the time Ian was in America, he came into contact with people from the upper class. Although he was not a top figure, he knew some inside information.
He agreed with Li Daohua's opinion, but also told Dennis that it was not easy to win a literary award, but being nominated was still possible.
A nomination would also increase Li Daohua's popularity.
"Daohua, how was your exchange this time? Did you get embarrassed by others?"
Li Sanzhu and Lin Jinfeng were always worried that their daughter would be bullied, even though they knew that their daughter was not someone who would suffer any loss.
"Who can make things difficult for me? It's always me who makes things difficult for others."
Li Daohua opened the soda and gulped down half of it in one breath. She was still very thirsty after talking for such a long time, but she didn't want to drink water in front of so many people.
"By the way, Ouyang hasn't come back yet?"
"I came back and went to look for Fenghuo and the others. It seems they found a source of goods. Fenghuo and the others wanted two people to drive over, but Ouyang wouldn't let them."
There were two of them, and they were two novices at that, so it was normal for Ouyang to worry about accidents.
This time they delivered goods to the coastal areas, and when they came back, they brought a lot of local specialties for their families.
Especially the shells, they drove to the beach to pick them up, which are still very rare things for the old couple.
The old couple had always lived in Henan Province. They only left Henan Province and came to Beijing this year. They had never seen the sea before, but had only heard about it from others. It was also this year that they saw it on TV.
The old couple collected the shells and planned to show them to the villagers when they returned home for the New Year.
The same is true for good harvest and good harvest.
"Mom and Dad, you've been in Peking for a while now, and I haven't taken you out to play. Now that school has started, there are fewer people at the tourist attractions, so it's more convenient for us to go out and play. I'll take you around Peking first.
I'll take some photos of you when the time comes, so you can go home and show everyone where you've been."
In fact, Li Daohua had hardly been to Peking. In his previous life, he had no money and no time. In this life, he has been busy making money and writing articles at home every day.
I did earn a lot of money, but I had no time to spend it. All the money was spent on buying a house.
They did what they said and started their tour from the nearest Tiananmen Square the next day.
Li Fengshou was responsible for taking pictures of them. The camera was bought by Li Daohua. After she bought it, she took a few pictures, but felt that she had to send the pictures to a special photo studio to develop them, so she put them away without using them.
Later, Li Fengshou finished filming the movie, but he was still excited. He heard that Li Daohua had a camera, so he tried every possible means to get her camera.
I used various photography techniques that I had learned from the camera crew of the crew, and after practicing, the photos I developed recently look quite good.
"Sister, 'One Roof' will be released in two days, shall we go and watch it together?"
"Okay."
"A Piece of Eaves" was released nationwide at the same time, with not much difference in time. Henan Province also started showing "A Piece of Eaves" shortly after the end of summer vacation.
There was a small promotional poster hanging outside the cinema, showing two families sitting under two roofs.
Li Fengshou's mother couldn't bear to buy a movie ticket to watch the movie, she wanted to wait until the movie was shown for free in the commune.
Some students from the village who went to the technical secondary school in the county came back and told them how much it cost to watch the movie and how popular it was in the county.
"You may not know, but Brother Fengshou is very famous in the county now. Many girls like Brother Fengshou. I told them that Brother Fengshou is my brother, and they were all very envious."
The boy from the village who was attending technical secondary school sat in the middle of the Bagua formation, surrounded by people listening to him.
During this period of time, he finally got some relief.
Their village is in the mountains, poor and dilapidated. Although they were admitted to a technical secondary school, the children in the school whose families live in the city have better food, clothing and other expenses than them.
Although people don't say it openly, they still feel a little inferior in their hearts. Many people are reluctant to mention their families or the people in their village in front of others.
The city kids talked about what factories their neighbors worked in and what key personnel they were in the factories.
Their neighbors in the village are just ordinary farmers like their parents.
Recently, the news that Li Daohua is a famous writer has made the girls in their village proud at school. Every time they mention it, they say that Teacher Daohua had taught them during the Chinese New Year, and they even went to pay New Year's greetings to Teacher Daohua.
The village still has a collection of novels signed by Teacher Daohua.
Of course, during the Chinese New Year, they did not mention a word about the beating Li Daohua had received, and they also forgot about the curses they had given Li Daohua behind her back.
Now, Li Fengshou has become a movie star again, and a movie star that girls like.
In the past, many girls would talk to those guys who rarely spoke to girls due to their low self-esteem, just to hear the story about Li Fengshou.
In addition to being happy that her son has become a movie star and can make money, Li Fengshou's mother is also happy that more and more people have come to propose marriage to her recently.
Not only that, the girls he was talking about were getting better and better, some of them even scared her and made her feel that she was not worthy of them.
In the past, Li Fengshou had lost his father, and she raised the child alone. The family was very poor, and there was no way for the child to get married. She could only let him go to the army to train first, and wait for his discharge, so that he could bring back retirement pay and be assigned a job.
I'll find a partner when the time comes, even if I'll be older, it's better than being penniless.
Now that suddenly so many people are proposing marriage, she feels happy but also a little nervous.
Finally, they decided to call the most educated person in the village, Li Daohua, to ask her what to do about the marriage.
"What are you talking about? Fengshou is only eighteen years old now, which is the right age for adventure. If he gets married so early, how can he concentrate on his career? Wait until he makes a name for himself.
He has only made one movie, but he is not a well-known actor yet. He needs to make more movies to hone himself.”
Li Fengshou was also very anxious. He felt that Sister Daohua was right and it was indeed too early to get married now.
"Besides, nowadays, people are in favor of freedom of love instead of following parents' orders. You should not be in a hurry."
After Li Daohua hung up the phone, Li Fengshou next to him said, "Daohua, why does Dad feel something is wrong? Didn't you say before that people in their fifties are the right time to make a breakthrough? How come it's eighteen now?"
When is the right time to break in? "
Li Daohua smiled and said, "Live and work hard until you are old."
