Chapter 225 The Value of Literature

As the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, Mo Yan's status in the literature circle is unquestionable. He has many fans of literature lovers in China.Therefore, his speech has great influence.

The trolls are complaining about the quality of the book Breaking the Sky, and now it has become a joke.

The endorsement of Moyan means that the book Fights Break the Sky has been recognized by mainstream writers and has a certain literary value.

At that time, with a realistic literary work "A Village of One Man", Moyan surpassed everyone's expectations and won the greatest glory an author can get, setting off a wave of reading in China.

It was also the first time that Chinese people realized the existence of Moyan. All of Moyan's published books were sold out within a day.

At that time, almost everyone felt that Moyan's winning of the Nobel Prize in Literature could boost the public's interest in reading.

But the facts prove that everyone still thinks too much.

There are not many people in China who love to read, or reading is only an interest of a small number of people.

The general public has more ways of entertainment, and reading is too high a threshold for most people, and it is not interesting.

Even a writer as awesome as Mo Yan, after winning the Nobel Prize for Literature, did not keep everyone interested in reading.

Most people want to sleep as soon as they read, which is also a very helpless thing.

Mo Yan loved reading when he was young, but the people around him didn't understand his love of reading.

Because Moyan's education level is not high, he has never been to college, and he is an out-and-out farmer in his early 20s. He also deals with a group of honest farmers in his life.

A farmer studying on the yellow soil seemed a bit ridiculous to the farmers around Moyan.

Their idea is simple:
"If you have the time to study, how about more food?"

In the eyes of most people, reading a book does not bring actual income and is "useless".Moreover, reading is a burden for those who do not have the basic ability to appreciate literature.They can't gain anything from reading, and the process of reading is very boring.

Mo Yan understood them.

But now, with the emergence of Dou Break Cang Qiong, the development of literature has changed.

Reading is no longer a boring thing.

Ordinary people don't need to read literary works that are too obscure.

Ordinary people can choose to read the relaxed and interesting Dou Break Sphere to pass their boring time.

Taking Dou Break Qiong as the starting point of my own reading, I gradually improve my appreciation of literature in reading.

Mo Yan is still very optimistic about the emergence of such straightforward and interesting literary works as Dou Break Cangong.

This allows countless people who are not interested in reading to start their own reading career.

This undoubtedly expands the concept and scope of scholars to an unprecedented extent.

The previous readers were a very small group of people who entertained themselves there, and there were really very few people who read.

Today's readers are free to choose the books they like to read. Whether it is heavy serious literature or light online literature, you can freely choose whatever books you like to read.

If your life is already heavy enough and you want to read some lighter stories and novels, then you can choose passionate web articles like Fights Break the Sphere to relax yourself temporarily in the book.

Most people in life must still like relaxing books like Fights Break the Sphere.

Mo Yan thinks this is not a bad thing.

It was a bad thing that most people were not interested in reading before.

A nation that does not like reading has no future.

This is what worries Mo Yan the most.

Now, the appearance of Dou Break Cang Qiong is undoubtedly good news.

When Mo Yan saw the news and a bunch of netizens criticized Dou Break Sky for being worthless, let alone how angry he was.

As a bigwig in the domestic literary circles, he must come out to rectify his name for Dou Po Tian Qiong.

For this purpose, Mo Yan accepted an exclusive interview with Tanshui Daily, making more people aware of the value of online literature.

……

Fighting the Sky tops the hot search list In the afternoon, a reporter from Tanshui Daily rushed to Mo Yan's residence to interview Mo Yan.

"Hello, Mr. Mo Yan, this time we are here mainly to ask you some opinions on Internet literature. You can just speak freely. I believe that Mr. Mo Yan's answer will definitely give us a comprehensive understanding of Internet literature. "

Tanshui Daily reporter Wang Fei is full of expectations.

"Actually, when I received the message that Dou Po Cangqiong was abused by netizens this morning, I was very angry. I think these netizens' comments are too mean, and they completely ignore the new Dou Po Cangqiong. The emergence of online books. What kind of impact will it bring to the literary world."

"Oh, how should I put it, what is the value of the book "Fights Break the Sky"? Mr. Mo Yan, please analyze it for us."

Mr. Mo Yan bombarded netizens as soon as he came up, and Wang Fei immediately realized that this news would definitely become a hot news, so he raised his spirits.

"The online literary novels such as Fights Break the Sky, which are straightforward and highly story-oriented, have the biggest function of lowering the threshold for reading and allowing more people to participate in the reading activity. Opening the book is beneficial. As long as you are reading, I I think that as a reader, you can gain something more or less."

Mo Yan bluntly said that he gave a very fair evaluation of Dou Po Cang Qiong's views.

"Then some netizens say that books like Fighting the Sky are useless books. After reading them, they can't make people gain knowledge, so they have no value in reading. Mr. Mo Yan, do you think this statement is credible?"

Wang Fei picked a very sharp question from a netizen and asked it.

"This kind of statement is too subjective and narrow. Fighting the sky itself is a novel. Isn't a novel a story? It is for people to entertain and read. The author can add a little bit of his own thoughts to it, and it will be successful. A very nutritious book. If you say that reading novels is useless and that you cannot acquire knowledge, then of course, you have not understood the value of literary subjects such as novels.”

"If even reading becomes utilitarian, then if you want to gain knowledge from reading, then you should just read reference books and books on scientific literacy knowledge."

Mo Yan's answer is still sharp, pointing to the core of the value of reading.

There are two types of reading, one is utilitarian reading, reading reference books and books on scientific knowledge.Reading such books can allow you to learn more about mathematics, physics and chemistry.

There is another kind of reading for entertainment. Reading is purely for personal hobbies. In the world of books, one can explore the limits of human imagination and the breadth of thought.

As soon as Wang Fei heard this answer, he realized the height of Moyan's answer to the question.

Mo Yan deserves to be a generation of Nobel Prize winners in literature. The answer is that he has a level, which directly illustrates the value of literature.

What is useless is also useful.
