Rebirth: I Want to Surf

A long time ago, the literary world was almost synonymous with the altar of gods.

Especially in the 1980s, it was the golden age of literature and poetry, and being able to publish an article in national, provincial, and even municipal newspapers immediately turned a sparrow into a phoenix.

For example, Ma Weidu, who used to be a machine tool miller, published a novel "Tonight's Full Moon" in a newspaper, and was directly hired as the editor of "Youth Literature".

There is also Yu Hua, who likes to play badly. He was a dentist at first, and his destiny was changed because of writing.

In the past, the literary world was sacred, and it was an honor to join the Writers Association, but it changed at some point, because the Writers Association is also within the system, the system of the literary world.

If you want to get involved in the literary world, you have to be obedient, and if you are not obedient, you are deviant.

Like Zheng Yuanjie.

Once he participated in a pen meeting, a female writer said that she had recently read Dostoevsky's works, and asked Zheng Yuanjie if she had read them?

Zheng Yuanjie said she hadn't seen it, so she was despised.

When it was his turn to speak, he now made up a writer and said, "I was inspired by Kushkaya's book recently, have you all read it?"

70% nodded.

He will never attend the PEN meeting again.

After the glory of the 1980s and the decline of the 1990s, entering the Internet age, the threshold of so-called literature has been lowered infinitely.

Under the cultivation of a group of market-oriented publishing houses and cutting-edge media, young best-selling authors emerge in endlessly, represented by Han Han and Guo Xiaosi.

The literary sublime theory believed in by the traditional literary world has been shattered by the new media, so Yao Yuan said that this hatred is natural.

…………

After Han Han responded, Bai Ye accepted an interview, claiming that "his words are vulgar, which is evidence of the low quality of the post-80s generation."

Han Han didn't need the help of netizens, he was very powerful, and immediately responded with an even worse one, and even uncovered Bai Ye's scandals: promoting the books he planned, collecting money from people, academic corruption, etc.

Directly call him a sanctimonious hypocrite.

Ever since, the literary world has formed cliques.

"If I were Han Han's parent, I would definitely slap him with a big mouth. Some people raise him but no one teaches him." - Xie Xizhang, author of "Liang Qichao Biography".

"Why are you like the Red Soldier? This practice is very bad. Bai Ye just criticizes your Han Han's poor writing, so you just search for evidence and list it one by one, two, three, and four!" ——Writer Wang Xiaoyu.

"It's no wonder that Han Han is only seventeen or eighteen years old. He hasn't read much, and only knows a little about school." ——Screenwriter Lu Tianming.

When Lu Tianming spoke, his son Lu Chuan naturally supported him and joined in.

The people who eat melons watched it lively and stood in line one after another, which became the biggest event on the Internet at the beginning of the year.

For a while, Han Han had the momentum to fight against the Confucians, he was able to reason at the top, and he could scold the mothers at the bottom. Literary Controversy—Father and Son Soldiers, Together with Relatives and Friends, etc.

One person on his own side has firmly gained the upper hand.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Chuan's good buddy Gao Xiaosong also spoke out, and he was very clever, saying that "Triple Door" quoted the lyrics of "Youth Without Regrets", and you violated my copyright...

Hey, this Han Han had nothing to say, so he had to admit it and wrote an article "Gao Xiaosong wants to sue me, it's only right and proper".

But then, he said again: "The heights are too cold!"

This debate is well-known in the history of Internet development. The original carrier was a blog, but now it has become a wheat nest. It is known as the "War of Han and Bai" in history.

Bai Ye himself was unclean and untenable.

In the end, I emptied my personal space and logged out of the Internet—the last one to log out was Lu Yan.

Objectively speaking, this debate started inexplicably and ended inexplicably, but it established Han Han's status in the online world.

…………

"Sign Han Han to be the second spokesperson of Maike Eslite!"

"OK!"

"Li Yuchun is the third one!"

In the office building in Zhongguancun, Sun Jun, who was on the phone with Yao Yuan, worried, "Li Yuchun's audience is all young women, will it arouse the resentment of male consumers?"

"We are the endorsement of a single product, and Li Yuchun endorses canvas shoes, which girls love to wear."

"Oh, that's fine."

"After "Struggle" airs, bring Wang Luodan to shoot commercials. My goal for you this year is 200 million sales. Can you achieve it?"

"200000000……"

Just as Sun Jun wanted to say that he felt a little stressed, he immediately swallowed it back and replaced it with excitement: "I promise to complete the task!"

T-shirts cost 29 yuan a piece, jeans cost 60 yuan, and canvas shoes cost 59 yuan. Based on the average price, there are almost 4 million pieces of goods, 11,000 pieces per day.

There is indeed pressure, but if there is no pressure, what do you ask yourself to do?

Sun Jun is very confident in his ability.

"Dididi!"

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the fax machine ringing. He pressed it, and a piece of paper buzzed from Tuanjie Lake, with enlarged bold letters on it, read:

"Love the internet, love freedom,

Love getting up late, love food stalls at night, love racing cars;

I also love the 59 yuan canvas shoes, I am not a standard bearer,

It's not someone's endorsement, I'm Han Han,

I only represent myself.

I'm just like you, I'm Mike! "

Whoa!

Sun Jun read it twice and knew that it was the latest advertising slogan appointed by Boss Yao. It had a super personality and appealed to young people. He is more and more confident that Mike will definitely become a trend.

…………

Tuanjie Lake on the other side.

After watching her grandfather come back, Yinyin's attitude towards Yao Yuan is different again. They used to be boyfriend and girlfriend, but now they are getting closer to the family.

Of course she hasn't finished her studies yet, there is still half a semester left, and the papers are being rattled. Holding a cup of tea, Yao Yuan dangled behind her and said, "Wow, you don't even think about it? Do you know what you're writing?"

"I've written a lot of this kind of papers, it's no different. Besides, the defense is just going through the motions. Which teacher doesn't give it to the students?"

"It's true, none of the things I prepared at the time were used, just ask a few questions and it's over."

There is no such thing as plagiarism check these days, it seems that it started in 2009, and the graduates who do it are dying, especially after the first year of Tianlin.

Yinyin has already decided that after graduation, she will come here to work as an assistant for two years, and by the way, she will shoot commercials for Maike Eslite. She is young anyway, and she is not in a hurry to do anything else.

In addition, there is Dai Hanhan, who was also booked in advance and left as an editor in the community.

Yao Yuan harassed Yinyin for a while, then walked to the window and looked at the Xiao Suochun scenery in Tuanjiehu Park outside. The new users brought by the Han-Bai dispute to the community were not as obvious as before, indicating that the bottleneck had already been reached.

According to the latest data, as of December 31 last year, the number of Chinese netizens reached 110 million, an increase of 17 million over 2004.

110 million, Yao Yuan dare not speak big words, but at least one-third of them are in the community, all of them are real names of [classmates]. Unless the overall base is further expanded, it will be difficult to grow.

If you don't look at the real name, but just look at the registration, then the community has more than 60 million people, and it deserves to be the number one.

With such a big piece of fat, he didn't accept financing in a daze, and how many investors scolded him...

"Buzz!"

The mobile phone on the table vibrated and began to dance tremblingly. Yao Yuan picked it up and took a look, it was still a student.

"Hello? Which one?"

"Mr. Yao?"

A very mature female voice came from the opposite side, and said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself, I am Xu Xin from Capital Today..."
