"Listening to what you said, I think this contracting model is quite good. Of course, I agree with Mr. Wang's point of view. This contracting system cannot have a huge impact on the current literary world. However, it can
It plays a very good supporting role." Linde expressed his opinion with a smile.
Zhang Dian nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"Writers are also hierarchical, and some are writers like pz..."
"Lind, what you said doesn't make sense. There is only one writer like pz." Llorente joked with a smile.
"I'm just giving an example. You just need to understand what I mean. A writer like pz naturally doesn't have to consider the market, because he can make people pay for whatever he writes. Therefore, he has a degree of freedom that others don't have.
He doesn’t need to write for money at all.”
Although Linde used Zhang Zhongju as an example, it is applicable to all writers present.
Even writers like Feng He and Zhao Re whose sales are not that good can still create without money because their income is enough to allow them to achieve financial freedom.
But how many writers like them are there in the country?
Most of them are still the kind of writers who can’t buy many books after writing them, or even have no chance of being published.
Some of these writers do it for fame, some do it for their ideals, and some do it for getting rich.
But no matter what they want, if they can't see hope for a long time, what they have in their hearts will be worn away. Especially those who want to be famous and want to get rich, they are the most easily defeated.
Although on a certain level, it is a good thing that these two types of people are defeated.
But when these two types of people are defeated, those who write with ideals will also be defeated. Ideals are sometimes so vulnerable in the face of reality.
Zhang Zhong has met some writers who originally set out to become full-time writers with full ambitions and wanted to show their inner world to the world. However, as time went by, no one read their works at all, and the original passion was slowly worn away.
This is not terrible. If you find that you can't support yourself as a writer, you can find a job, and then use your free time to write when you are sure that you can survive. There is also the possibility of becoming a professional writer again.
But I'm afraid of the kind of people who may be hurt by face, or who may not be able to pass their own level, so they just dive in and are unwilling to look back even if they hit the wall.
Of course, the contract system cannot save these people. What the contract system can help are the writers who have shown their potential but need a boost. The contract system not only allows them to have no worries, but also helps them with resources.
them.
To put it more vividly, if a relatively high threshold is set in the literary world, the people who are signed will be the ones who have stepped into the threshold with one foot, and a signing contract [Biquge www.biquwu.biz] is
The power to pull them in.
Because Linde has this understanding, he thinks this contract system is good.
Hearing Linde's praise of the contract system, Liu Yuan became interested. He smiled and asked, "Don't you think the system is not too free?"
After Zhang Zhong translated Liu Yuan's question to Linde, Linde smiled and said, "From my own point of view, of course it is a bit unfree, but something like freedom also requires scope and foundation. And in addition to unfreedom
In addition, such a system is also prone to corruption. I don’t know much about the specific contract conditions, but I believe that no matter what the contract conditions are, as long as it is within such a framework, some special operations will definitely be inevitable.”
Liu Yuan smiled and said, "You made me change some of my stereotyped ideas about Americans. But since you also mentioned that there are problems with the contract system, why do you still agree with it?"
"Because other forms may be even worse. There are very few contracted producers in the United States, but unfair situations often occur. Unfairness naturally leads to lack of freedom. There is nothing to say. The entry of capital markets,
Although it makes the market more dynamic, it also causes writers to be exploited and squeezed, which in itself is a two-sided thing." Linde said.
Hearing Linde's words, even Zhang Zhong, who had known him for quite some time, was a little surprised. Linde's ideology was too Chinese in character.
This cannot be seen at all from his works.
In Linde's works, especially his most well-known "Necromancer" series of novels, there are several plots in which characters sacrifice their lives for freedom.
And the plot is particularly heroic.
Looking at Linde's works, people may think that he is a passionate idealist, but listening to his remarks, he is actually a complete realist.
Zhang Zhong said, "Your research meeting is not going to discuss the pros and cons of the contract system, right?"
Wang Yi nodded and said, "Of course not, the contract system is just to lead to the issues we will discuss. Because the Federation of Literary and Art Circles found that the contract system could not achieve the results they wanted, they organized this research meeting to discuss a
If you have something that can achieve results, whether it is a policy or a program, as long as it achieves results, it will be fine."
"Yes, I understand." Zhang nodded, but he still had doubts about why the Nanhuai Literary and Art Federation wanted to find Wang Yi and the others. Things like local literary federations are still regional, and this research meeting was also for discussion and promotion.
The development of local literature in Nanhuai.
Speaking of which, this was Nan Huai's own business, but they brought Wang Yi and others from other provinces here.
Wang Yi glanced at Zhang Zhong's expression and probably guessed what Zhang Zhong was thinking, but did not speak to explain Zhang Zhong's confusion.
Liu Yuan continued the topic just now and said, "I'm not very optimistic that this research meeting will be able to discuss a specific result. We have discussed this matter before, but no new ideas have been put forward. In other words, let
It is impossible for us to come here to help, but we can come here to learn and learn from experience. If we work together and come up with a better plan, our trip will not be in vain, but we can only count on the attendees.
It’s someone else.”
Zhang Zhong shook his head and said, "I guess the Federation of Literary and Art Circles doesn't want you to come up with any plans. It's enough that you can come over and put forward some opinions of your own and give some inspiration to others."
Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "It just so happens that we have gathered together today and have foreign friends, so why not hold a research meeting by ourselves first. If we can come up with a good result from the discussion, everyone will be happy. If not, it can be regarded as a kind of entertainment.
