Chapter 77 Guess Who I Am
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 naturally spread the word all over the world.
Many short story lovers, since the news came out, have already begun to look forward to——
For them, it will be a gluttonous feast.
In the field of short stories, there are not a few people in the industry who have paid attention to this matter.
However, when the event started, everyone discovered that tribal literature actually played a show operation!
The event announcement reads:
[Each user has three opportunities to compare hearts. You can compare hearts with works at the end of the article. You can only compare hearts once for each novel. In this way, you can express your support for the works. The ranking of works is determined by the number of hearts compared, but for For the fairness of the final ranking, we deliberately concealed the names of the authors. Please start from the content and make the most fair selection. When the final ranking is confirmed, we will announce the authors of these works. 】
Why do you say this operation is very annoying?
Because the writers invited to participate in the tribal literature competition all have fans.
There is a thing called a fan filter.
Many fans will only vote for their favorite writers, not their favorite works.
Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, tribal literature directly hides the author's name.
"interesting."
"Some authors have special writing styles, so readers can still guess who the author is, but who can be sure, after all, many authors have similar writing styles."
"That's probably why Tribal Literature didn't reveal in advance who the thirty writers who participated in the competition were."
"I was not interested in this activity at first, but now I am interested."
"..."
After the discussion, everyone started to read books.
The length of short stories is generally controlled at about three to five thousand words, so readers read them quickly.
Tribal literature leaves the decision of rankings in the hands of readers.
Everyone enjoys this feeling of being a judge, so when reading novels, they don't feel impatient, but have an inexplicable sense of mission.
"My comparison determines the future of the work."
Many people participated in the selection with this belief.
Gradually, some people noticed the novel "The Death of a Little Civil Servant".
This is a matter of course. It will be strange if this novel does not attract the attention of readers, because Blue Star's art appreciation level is higher than that of Earth, so it is impossible not to see the power of this novel.
To know.
This is one of the three major novel masters on the earth, and Chekhov's early representative works!
Leo Tolstoy once commented on Chekhov: "Leaving aside all hypocritical politeness, I say with certainty that Chekhov is far superior to me technically!"
There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts.
Westerners don't like modesty and politeness very much.
Chekhov, who can make Leo Tolstoy make such an evaluation, must be very capable.
Chekhov is famous for his critical realism, and "Death of a Little Civil Servant" is such a representative work.
And as more and more people read "The Death of a Little Civil Servant", the comment section of this novel gradually became lively.
Although the author's name is hidden, everyone can still comment on the novel.
"This novel is kind of amazing."
"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 found it sad, and the third time I felt a little bit empathetic, because I felt that if I was put in the situation of a small civil servant, although It’s not enough to apologize repeatedly, but I can’t sleep well for at least a week.”
"It seems to criticize the ancient feudal autocratic system, but it is actually using the past to satirize the present."
"Yes, using the past to satirize the present, I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think of this word, I just thought of it."
"In our modern society, there are many people like small civil servants, but the novel shows it in an exaggerated way."
"I don't even think it's an exaggeration. People with experience may empathize more. Fear is a terrible emotion. It can indeed destroy a person. This is why we emphasize psychological quality."
"..."
After the discussion, everyone began to be curious about the author of the novel.
"Tribal literature hides the author's name. This operation is too coquettish. I can't tell which writer this novel is from just by the style of writing."
"It should be a writer who has been famous for a long time."
"The author's skill is definitely beyond doubt. It is not easy to conquer readers with more than a thousand words, but I have already been conquered, and I will offer it from my heart."
"This is the scary part, this novel is only 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. Each novel can only compare hearts once."
"It's time to start wondering who the author will be when the results are revealed, and what's with the inexplicable expectation, hahahahaha."
"..."
The next day, this "Death of a Little Civil Servant" was ranked first!
However, the number of comparisons between the second and third places is not much different from that of the first place, so the battle situation is still stalemate.
Faced with such a result, not to mention the curiosity of the readers, even the circle of writers in the field of short stories has become curious, and many small circles are discussing:
"Whose work is the first?"
"Just looking at the style of writing, I can't tell who it is at all."
"Could it be Lao Zhou's? Tribal literature must have invited him, right?"
"Old Zhou did enter 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 "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. Tribal Literature can assure you that the participating writers are all experienced writers in the industry."
"Anyone ask tribal literature?"
"I have inquired, even in tribal literature, at least the editor-in-chief must know who the author is, but they are tight-lipped and refuse to disclose the author of any work."
"We can only wait for the final announcement."
"Having said that, the writing level of "The Death of a Little Civil Servant" is really high. The writing is humorous, ironic but spicy, and the content is very meaningful despite its short length."
"It is estimated that it will not be a big problem to win the first place in the end."
"It's hard to say, the second place is a mystery novel, the story is very strong, and the final reversal is also surprising, and there is hope for a comeback."
"The third place is not too bad. Two students who have been in love since junior high school. One has good grades and the other has poor grades. In order to be with each other, one studies hard, performs exceptionally well in the exam, and enters the best high school in the county. , entered a relatively poor high school, but I always feel that this story is a bit like that novel that was very popular some time ago, "The Gift of the Magi."
"..."
The discussion was vigorous, and the activities of tribal literature were filled with the fun of "guess who I am".
