Chapter 77 Guess Who I Am
At the same time, thirty well-known short story writers are invited to compete on the same stage.
With such a big move, tribal literature is naturally publicized all over the world.
Many short story lovers, since this news came out, have already begun to look forward to-
For them, this will be a gluttonous feast.
In the field of short stories, there are not a few people in the industry who are concerned about this matter.
However, when the activity started, everyone discovered that tribal literature actually played a trick!
The event announcement reads this paragraph:
[Each user has three chances to compare your hearts. You can compare your works at the end of the article. You can only compare your hearts once for each novel. In this way, you can express your support for the work. For the fairness of the final ranking, we have deliberately concealed the author's name. Please start from the content and make the most fair selection. When the final ranking is determined, we will announce the authors of these works.
Why is this operation very nasty?
Because all the writers invited to participate in the tribal literature contest have fans.
There is something called a fan filter.
Many fans only vote for their favorite writers, not for their favorite works.
Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, tribal literature directly obscured the author's name.
"interesting."
"Some authors have a special style, so readers can still guess who the author is, but who is sure. After all, many authors have similar styles."
"That's why the tribal literature didn't disclose in advance who the 30 writers were."
"I didn't have any interest in this activity, but now I am interested."
"..."
After the discussion, everyone started reading.
The length of short stories is generally controlled at around three to five thousand words, so readers can read them quickly.
Tribal literature gives the reader the power to decide the ranking.
Everyone enjoys the feeling of being a judge, so when you read a novel, you don't feel impatient, but have an inexplicable sense of mission.
"My love determines the future of the work."
Many people participated in the selection with this belief.
Gradually, someone noticed the novel "The Death of a Little Civil Servant".
This is a matter of course. It would be strange if this novel does not attract the attention of readers, because Blue Star's artistic appreciation level is higher than that of the earth, and it is impossible not to fail to see the power of this novel.
To know.
This is one of the three great masters of the earth's novels, Chekhov's very representative works in his early creation!
Leo Tolstoy once commented on Chekhov: "I put aside all hypocritical courtesies and say with certainty that Chekhov is far more brilliant than me in terms of technique!"
Wen has no first, Wu has no second.
Westerners don't like modesty and politeness.
Chekhov, who can make Leo Tolstoy such an evaluation, must be very powerful.
Chekhov is known for his critical realism, and it is precisely "The Death of a Little Civil Servant" that is such a representative work.
As more and more people read "Death of a Little Civil Servant", the commentary area of this novel gradually became lively.
Although the author's name is hidden, everyone can still comment on the novel.
"This novel is a bit powerful."
"Although there are only more than a thousand words, I read it three times. The first time I found it funny, the second time I felt sad, and the third time I felt a little empathetic, because I felt that I was changed to the situation of a civil servant I won’t have to apologize repeatedly, but I can’t sleep well for at least a week."
"It seems to criticize the ancient feudal autocratic system, but in fact it is to use the past to satirize the present."
"Yes, I was thinking about it for a long time, but I didn't think of the word, I just thought of fucking."
"In our modern society, there are also many people like small civil servants, but the novel uses an exaggerated method to show it."
"I don't even think it is exaggerated. People who have experience may feel it more empathy. Fear is a terrible emotion. It can indeed destroy a person. This is why we emphasize psychological quality."
"..."
After the discussion, everyone became curious about the author of the novel.
"Tribal literature hides the author's name. This operation is really silly. I can't judge the author of this novel at all by the style of writing."
"It should be a well-known writer."
"The author's skill is definitely beyond doubt. It is not an easy task to conquer readers with more than a thousand words, but I have been conquered, and I will offer it with my heart."
"The terrible place is here, this novel is only more than a thousand words!"
"I can't wait to give all three comparisons to this novel, but it's a pity that tribal literature doesn't let me do that. You can only compare the hearts once per novel.
"It's time to start to be curious about the results, who the author will be, and what is going on with inexplicable expectations, hahahahaha."
"..."
The next day, this "Death of a Little Civil Servant" was ranked first!
However, the second and third places are not much different from the first place, so the battle situation is still stalemate.
In the face of such a result, let alone the readers' curiosity, the writer circle in the field of short stories has also begun to be curious. Many small circles are discussing:
"Whose work is the first place?"
"Just looking at the style of writing, I can't see who it is at all."
"Could it be Lao Zhou? Tribal Literature must have invited him?"
"Lao Zhou did participate in the competition. He refused to tell me which work he was the author of, but he also asked me just now if he knew who wrote "The Death of a Little Civil Servant"."
"No one admits?"
"These guys are treacherous and ruthless. Anyway, "Death of a Little Civil Servant" must have been written by a writer we are familiar with. The tribal literature promised to say that the participating writers are all senior writers in the industry."
"Does anyone inquire about tribal literature?"
"Inquiry, even in tribal literature, at least the editor-in-chief level talent knows who the author is, but they are tight-lipped and refuse to reveal the author of any work."
"We can only wait for the final announcement."
"Speaking of which, the writing level of "Death of a Little Civil Servant" is really high. The text is humorous, but the irony is pungent, the length is short, but the content is meaningful."
"It is estimated that the first issue will not be a big problem."
"It's hard to say that the second place is a mystery novel, which is very narrative, and the final reversal is also surprising and hopeful."
"The third place is not bad. The two junior high school students who started to fall in love had good grades and poor grades. In order to be with each other, one worked hard and performed exceptionally in exams, and entered the best high school in the county, and one deliberately released water. , Entered a relatively poor high school, but I always feel that this story is a bit of the shadow of the novel that was quite popular some time ago, "The Maggie's Gift"."
"..."
The discussion was vigorous, and the activities of tribal literature were filled with the fun of guessing who I am.
