Author: The falling knife on a rainy night

The Pulis Awards scene was divided into four major camps.

The media camp, these people are not only here to report but also to wait and see who will eventually win the Pulitzer Prize.

In the writer camp, there are too many writer awards, so the winners have been announced in advance. Of course, they are announced internally and not to the public.

In the social camp, this group of people are those related to the Pulis Award who are the easiest to negotiate with. They may be publishers, media, booksellers, or e-commerce companies.

There is also a group of people who are professional book reviewers, and this group of people is very difficult to deal with.

And some of them are also theater and film critics.

Of course, it's not a TV series, it's a drama or opera.

On site, one award after another was announced.

"The winner of the Pulis Fairytale Award 2023 is..."

"The winner of the 2023 Pulis Science Fiction Award is..."

Soon, a small highlight came.

"The winner of the Pulis 2023 Bestseller Award is Andrew, the author of "Bates' Time Travel"!"

Andrew walked onto the stage wearing a top hat.

He is a little bit fat, so maybe he looks better with a hat?

Andrew, who stepped on the stage, took the trophy and approached the microphone: "Wow, I have fantasized about toasting many times, but I didn't expect this trophy to be so heavy."

Then he raised the trophy with a funny toasting action, as if the trophy was very heavy.

However, no one at the scene could understand this obvious pun, and everyone was laughing.

Andrew just came over: "Thanks to the support of book fans, I can win this award."

“I would also like to thank the judges for their discerning eyes.”

"Thanks to the seniors in the industry for some help."

"I would like to thank my wife for silently supporting my writing from behind, and I would also like to thank my daughter for giving me the inspiration to create."

"To be honest, I didn't expect to win this award at first. I thought I might be able to compete for the Pulis Literary Award, but I didn't expect that I actually won the Bestseller Award."

"I thought my book was quite literary."

It was another American joke, with low points compared to high points, and many people at the scene were laughing.

Andrew: "If I were to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature, my competitor would be a great writer I admire very much, Rambis."

"Unexpectedly, I failed to win the literature award, and neither did Rambis."

"Wow, it's a tie!"

Everyone in the audience was laughing, but Han Zhou was the only one who looked at this chubby American guy who looked like an honest guy, but actually had secretly ignored him four times.

Andrew: "After I started working in this industry, I have some understanding of literature and art, which is probably similar to what most people know."

"In my opinion, literature is an art that empowers people and is a collision between imagination and reality."

"We often say that in fiction, except for the names of people and places, everything else is true."

"So, I prefer that things that have happened or happen frequently in the real world, when described by writers, are touching and leave a very deep impression on people."

"Unexpectedly, this year's winner of the Literature Prize took a different approach and wrote something else."

High emotional intelligence, find new ways.

Low emotional intelligence is not art.

Many people in the audience found it strange.

How come you, a best-selling author, talk so much about literature and art when you win an award?

What does it mean?

Darph lowered his body: "That old bastard Rambis is smiling so happily."

Han Zhou stood up.

Yes, Han Zhou stood up when someone gave his acceptance speech at the award ceremony.

Because Han Zhou was sitting too far forward, it was difficult not to be seen.

Andrew on the stage also looked at Han Zhou and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Han Zhou not only stood up, but also raised his right hand high: "I want to ask a question."

Andrew smiled: "Please tell me."

Do you really think you are giving a lecture?

Han Zhou: “Does literature and art need to be serious?”

Andrew was stunned for a moment: "Seriousness..."

Han Zhou: "That is to say, does literature and art need to reflect social reality, reflect the cruel social reality, reflect the huge gap between rich and poor, reflect the suffering of the poor, and the privileged of the privileged?"

Andrew was silent.

He didn't dare to say this.

Literature and art will always go down the same road.

In his previous life, Conan Doyle, the author of "Sherlock Holmes", was not only the originator of detective novels, but also a great science fiction writer. At the same time, he was also the founder of serious literature.

However, this thing seems to be in conflict with society in the United States.

Han Zhou smiled. Don't you dare to continue?

You don't dare to accept something as serious as serious literature?

Do you dare to move left and right with my left hand?

Seeing that Andrew was silent, Han Zhou said, "Your pursuit of literature is what you described, right? Are there any other conditions?"

"That's it?"

The news media at the scene seemed to have smelled the scent of blood, and their eyes were gleaming with gold.

It's obvious that they understand it no matter how hard they understand it.

Andrew took advantage of the opportunity to speak and stepped on Han Zhou.

Because "No One Survived" is a contrivance, not a true story.

Because it is difficult for such stories and such people to appear in reality.

In "No Survival", everyone on the island is evil, and in this trap, everyone died on the island.

In the end, only on the nearby coast, someone picked up a drift bottle and learned the possible truth.

There is a man on the island who is actually a judge.

During his long career of judging other people's lives, he gradually became obsessed with pathological judgment thinking.

Although he judged and took away the lives of others, it was righteous.

But he knew that he was only satisfying his murderous desire, not justice.

Finally, he decided to gather a group of people who had committed crimes but escaped justice on the island.

Then send them off one by one with "Indian Nursery Rhymes".

He faked his death at first, and finally ended his own life after sending everyone away.

Such a story is so exquisite that it makes people's hair stand on end and their souls tremble.

But, this is not a story about reality.

And now Andrew defiantly presents the real-life story.

Then Han Zhou has questions to ask.

Do you dare to mention real-life stories? Do you dare to only write about real-life pain?

Good! If you dare to take up serious literature, Han Zhou will propose GM literature, which is left-wing literature.

Andrew shut up at the gate.

Han Zhou could only say, that's it?

The emergence of serious literature was indeed a huge progress in literature and art in the world literary world. Later, many literary awards were awarded because of this kind of literature.

Including "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and the like.

However, they have a huge flaw.

That’s compromise!

Serious literature only dares to raise class oppression, only dares to tell stories of suffering, but does not dare to fight to the end.

After serious literature, left-wing literature is undoubtedly the serious and real literature.
