Chapter 385 When a person is alive, he must be ready to endure hardships at any time
After Qin Ying of Xin'an News sat down, Zhang Zhong named another reporter.
"Hello Zhang Zhong, can you tell us what kind of book "The Ordinary World" is? There are many speculations about this book."
"This book will be released to everyone in three days. I think this question should be answered soon."
"But most readers are not willing to wait even these few days. Of course I understand your concerns. I think it should be okay to tell us about the theme of this novel."
Zhang Zhong thought for a while and said, "This book is very long."
He said nothing more, but the reporters waited for him to continue.
Zhang Zhong smiled, it seemed that he would be fooled if he didn't say more.
"This book is very long because it is a panoramic novel. My original intention in writing this book was to show readers the warmth between ordinary people. I believe that this book is warm.
, will also bring a warm experience to readers.”
"Can I ask what the background of this book is?"
"Mid-seventies to mid-eighties."
"So, is this a realistic novel? Or is it a new historical novel similar to the previous book "Xu Sanguan Sells Blood"? You just mentioned Wenqing, which means that this book may be
Like "Border Town", is it a romantic novel?"
Zhang Zhong laughed and said, "You have a lot of problems."
The reporter also laughed and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help but ask all the questions."
"This book has a realistic expression. There's only so much I can tell you. I'm afraid you won't know the details until the New Year's Day when you go to the bookstore and buy a copy."
"Okay, I will definitely buy it when the time comes."
"Well, thank you in advance for your support."
…
The press conference went on steadily. These reporters were all quite competent. At least they didn't ask any gossip questions. They all focused on Zhang Zhong's works.
Hu Rui, who had not raised his hand until the end, raised his hand.
Zhang Zhong actually saw Hu Rui as soon as he came in.
Liu Ming didn't even tell Zhang Zhong what Hu Rui looked like, but Zhang Zhong still recognized him at a glance. After all, all the young reporters here were about thirty years old. Only one of them had white hair and looked quite young, and he was sitting in the seat.
There is an independent aura among other reporters. From time to time, other reporters will look at him. It is obvious that he is a special person.
Seeing Hu Rui raising his hand, other reporters did not raise their hands either.
Zhang Zhong sat on it and said, "Please tell me."
Hu Rui took the pen, pushed up his glasses, and said, "Mr. Zhang Zhong, I noticed that when talking about the new work "The Ordinary World", you mentioned a word - panoramic style. As the name suggests, panoramic novels attempt to show
To create a panoramic view of society, it must be more than just a section of space. The interlaced conflicts of characters cannot constitute a panoramic view. What can constitute a panoramic view is the conflict between space and time. I have some doubts. Since "The Ordinary World" shows the relationship between ordinary people,
So how can it cover all aspects of society, and how do you deal with the relationship between them?"
Regarding Hu Rui's question, Zhang Zhong felt that he had something to say, but on the other hand, he felt that the question was really not interesting.
As Zhang Zhong said before, this question will be revealed in three days. There is no need for him to ask it again at this time. Is he also the kind of person who can't even wait three days?
impossible.
If you think about it carefully, maybe Hu Rui didn't come here to get some answers as a reporter, but simply wanted to discuss it with Zhang Zhong. Even if Zhang Zhong doesn't answer, it doesn't matter.
Zhang Zhong looked at his phone, and with a little time left, he smiled and said, "I think the answer to this question, this gentleman himself knows, this society is closely related to everyone in it, and he will never say that there is
No one can be separated from society. So even ordinary people have a very close relationship with society. It is not difficult to see the shadow of big events in small people."
Hu Rui smiled, "When "Xu Sanguan Sold Blood" came out, Wang Yi from the Scar School once said that "Xu Sanguan Sold Blood" is a re-exploration of 'scar literature' and does not deviate from it.
The category of 'scar literature'. What I want to ask is, will this book "The Ordinary World" also be a re-exploration of "scar literature"? A fellow reporter mentioned warmth earlier, and he was asking whether it was similar to "Border Town"
The same romantic literature, but I have some different views, or it will be a book engraved with suffering like "Xu Sanguan Sells Blood". Some writers, when embodying positive emotions such as warmth and strength,
, is often accompanied by suffering.”
Zhang Zhong also smiled, "Do you think Mr. Wang Yi is right?"
Hu Rui raised his eyebrows, "That's why I have to ask you."
"You are right, but you are also wrong. It is true that many works that express positive emotions are often accompanied by suffering, but this does not mean that the author deliberately set up suffering in order to highlight the positive emotions. In fact, in reality,
, Suffering and warmth are twin brothers. If a person's life goes well and everything is random, I think there will be no such thing as warmth in his world. Even if there is, he will not feel it. So, these
The writer writes about reality, not suffering."
Hu Rui thought for a moment and said nothing, but gently clapped his hands twice.
Zhang Zhong said, "Then today's press conference will end here. There are many readers waiting for me in front. If there is a chance, let's continue the discussion."
After he finished speaking, Liu Ming walked over and took the microphone, "Don't rush to leave, we have prepared tea for you next door. It's a cold day, so everyone has a sip of hot tea before leaving."
Liu Ming and Xu Yang were responsible for entertaining reporters, while Zhang Zhong and Chen Qing were led by the staff to the autograph signing hall.
Book fans who had been waiting for a long time saw Zhang Zhong appear, and the hall suddenly burst into cheers.
The people at the back didn't see Zhang Zhong, but when they heard the cheers from the front, they cheered too.
Zhang Chong waved to them and said hello, and then said to Chen Qing, "Let's get started."
Chen Qing nodded and spoke to the staff, then the team let a few people in, and the autograph session officially began.
Just like last time, Zhang Zhong gave a special sign to the book friend ranked first.
He was still thinking about the discussion he had just had with Hu Rui, so he wrote down: When a person is alive, he must be prepared to endure hardships at any time.
