1980 My literary era

As soon as Lin Weimin finished speaking, all his arms stood up. Lin Weimin pointed his fingers in the air, and finally selected a girl from the acting class.

"Teacher Lin, do you have a girlfriend?" The girl stood up and asked with a strong voice.

There was a burst of laughter in the classroom, and some boys even whistled.

In an environment full of hormones, this kind of question can really resonate with everyone.

Lin Weimin is young. He introduced himself during the lecture just now and said that he is only twenty-one years old, which is younger than most of the students present.

In the early 1980s, it was common for students in their twenties and thirties to go to college. This was the case for Han Zhuangzhuang and his amateur acting class, as well as for the students from the directing and literature departments who came to take classes, including the students from the Agricultural University next door.

Lin Weimin has made a name for himself in the field of literary creation at a young age, and he has a handsome appearance. Many people present, especially girls, are more concerned about his personal problems than the content of what he talks about.

"The topic of girlfriend is a bit too personal. But since you all want to know, it's okay to tell you. I am currently single."

"Oh~"

The classroom was noisy. Although the atmosphere these days is relatively conservative, in this kind of situation where no one is punished, the girls can be bold without any taboo.

Lin Weimin pressed his hands downward, "Okay, okay, that's all for personal issues. Next, students will have to ask some constructive questions."

There were still many arms standing high under the podium. Lin Weimin spotted Zhu Lin in the crowd, and he clicked: "This classmate!"

Zhu Lin stood up, and everyone's eyes were focused on her. Many people's eyes were a bit surprised. Zhu Lin, who is in the 80-level amateur performance class, is one of the most beautiful girls who entered the school in the past two years in the performance department.

"Hello, Teacher Lin, I would like to ask you about the creation story of "The Death of Yura"." After Zhu Lin asked the question, she looked at Lin Weimin quietly.

He smiled and asked: "This classmate likes "The Death of Yura"?"

"Yeah." Zhu Lin nodded.

Lin Weimin raised his voice and said: "Are there any students here who have watched "The Death of Yura"?"

The students below raised their hands sparsely. Lin Weimin did a rough count and found that there were about thirty or forty people, accounting for about one-third.

"Okay, please put your hands down."

"Just now this female classmate asked about the writing experience of "The Death of Yura". In fact, the origin of this novel was when I was at the Institute of Literary Studies last year. The institute organized us students to go to Xiaoxi Tian'er to watch a movie..."

When he said this, there was a buzz in the audience.

Going to the Chinese Film Archive in Xiaoxitian'er to watch a movie resonates so well with Yanying's students, who go there almost every week.

"We were watching the American movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"..." Lin Weimin said this and looked at everyone, "I think many students have seen this movie, right?"

The students below nodded wildly, and the more they talked, the more they resonated with each other.

"After watching a movie, during the break, my classmates went outside to rest. While chatting, they talked about the plot of the movie, and I talked about my feelings about the movie. Based on the plot of the movie, I casually I changed the ending of this movie.

As a result, the students thought it was very good. The teacher who led the team allowed me to try this ending and create a story. This is the origin of "The Death of Yura". "

Lin Weimin finished speaking briefly, and the faces of the students below couldn't help but show longing.

For most people, the profession of a writer is mysterious, especially when Lin Weimin said that he came up with this novel by watching movies and chatting. This kind of creative method just hit the hearts of students who yearn for literature. The point of creation makes everyone unable to help but be fascinated.

While the students were still immersed in the creation story of "The Death of Yura", Lin Weimin said: "I see that many students came today with "People's Literature", and they must like "Farewell My Concubine" very much. A novel..."

The students below had some excitement on their faces and nodded vigorously.

"Just now I asked you how many people have read "The Death of Yura". Actually, I wanted to compare the audiences of the two novels. The creative method of "Farewell My Concubine" is actually very popular, with the story as the core.

But "The Death of Yura" is different. Its existence is based on values ​​as its core. The characters, stories, and conflicts are all the fuel to highlight the values.

The difference in core is reflected in the great difference in reading experience. People who have watched "The Death of Yura" may feel emotional, but they will never cry as much as they did after watching "Farewell My Concubine".

From this point of view, "The Death of Yura" is not as good as "Farewell My Concubine". "

When Lin Weimin said this, a high-pitched voice suddenly came from behind the classroom.

"I don't agree with you, Teacher Lin!"

On the podium, Lin Weimin was startled by the sudden sound, and the students in the classroom also turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.

A tall young man stood out from the crowd at the back of the classroom with a serious look on his face.

Lin Weimin did not show any displeasure at his interruption just now. Instead, he waved and said, "This classmate can come forward a little to facilitate our communication."

The young man walked forward aggressively, looking a bit like he was going to attack the enemy.

Lin Weimin felt that the young man looked familiar the first time he stood up, and asked him to come forward just to confirm.

When he walked two or three meters away from Lin Weimin, Lin Weimin finally confirmed.

Wocao, this is the real deal!

It turns out to be Kaizi... No, Kaigezi!

"This classmate, did you just say that you disagreed with me?" Lin Weimin asked.

"Not bad!" Cheng Kaige said loudly.

He did not wait for Lin Weimin to answer, and said impassionedly: "I think "The Death of Yura" is an extremely excellent magical realism work. It can be said to be the first of its kind in China. It is destined to go down in the history of Chinese literary circles." A work that has left its mark. In my opinion, "Farewell My Concubine" is too crowd-pleasing and can only be regarded as a good popular novel."

After he finished speaking, he looked directly at Lin Weimin with stern eyes, as if waiting for Lin Weimin to attack him.

Lin Weimin looked at Cheng Kaige who was like a cockfighting man with a calm expression.

Not bad, not bad, this state is very similar to that of a poetry recital master, exactly what Lin Weimin had in mind.

Lin Weimin didn't even know whether this guy was really stupid or fake.

Call him fake. The way he came here looked like he was rushing to quarrel, and his tone of voice was very aggressive. He almost turned "Farewell My Concubine" into bullshit.

You have to say that he is serious. This guy can make "The Death of Yura" so popular that even Lin Weimin, the original author, is a little embarrassed.

It has to be you, the literary young man who has been like this for forty years.
