Chapter 581 Not participating is for their own good(1/2)
Lin Chaoyang appeared on the cover of Time magazine, which caused great responses in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions.
Since the discourse power of Western media began to invade in the 1980s, the style of Time magazine has been erected by various domestic media that followed the trend and joined in the fun.
In the eyes of many ordinary people, being able to be on the cover of Time magazine is a world-class celebrity.
No ordinary national leaders can do it.
What does Lin Chaoyang Energy say when boarding it?
This means that he is now an internationally recognized great writer!
Although Lin Chaoyang has won some international literature awards in recent years and is said to have been very popular overseas, this popularity is obviously not more convincing in the eyes of ordinary people!
In the 1980s and 1990s, people were blindly superstitious about the media, especially the authoritative Western media.
With the enthusiastic reports on this incident by many media from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Three Places, Lin Chaoyang's status in the Chinese literary world has unknowingly increased by half a step.
However, the Chinese-speaking regions' pursuit of Lin Chaoyang is more due to the media's exaggeration. After all, there are still very few real readers of Time magazine in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions.
Compared with the domestic momentum caused by media exaggeration, the impact of Lin Chaoyang's appearance on Time magazine in the United States is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and more influential.
In the past two or three months, the people have just experienced the baptism of the "Lin Chaoyang phenomenon". The popularity of Lin Chaoyang and his works has just dropped in the American cultural circle. Time magazine continued Lin Chaoyang's popularity.
A handful of firewood.
What Lin Chaoyang said in an interview with Time magazine, "One orientation, one disease" and "the world is big and can accommodate all the differences" are frequently quoted by the media, and they have become famous quotes for a while.
trend.
Many homosexual organizations and AIDS organizations also wrote these two sentences on the sign and promoted them when holding events.
On October 11, 1987, a "Mark to Washington for homosexual rights" event took place in the United States.
The event was huge and had a far-reaching impact. The following year, in order to celebrate the first anniversary of the parade, the people participating in the parade decided to make October 11 the "National Outing Day".
When Lin Chaoyang's "famous quotes" were widely reported by the media, some homosexual organizations began to call for "the world is big and can accommodate all the differences" as a promotional slogan for this year's National Outing Day, and it was quickly supported and widely in the United States
spread.
"Uncle, do you really support homosexuality?"
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Tao Xiwen asked Lin Chaoyang, he was reading the South China Morning Post just now.
In the past two months, the Xiangjiang media has reported on the huge response caused by Lin Chaoyang's works in the United States. Every time, they can always find new angles and materials.
Today, the South China Morning Post's report on Lin Chaoyang was focused on the fact that American homosexual organizations regarded what he said in an interview some time ago as a propaganda slogan. This angle was chosen in an amazing way.
In front of the child, Lin Chaoyang certainly cannot say that he is "hiding evil intentions" by doing this, and he has to set a good example for the child.
But when he thought that his eldest nephew was about to go to the United States to study, he did not dare to claim that he was too arrogant.
I am afraid that my eldest nephew will take his words as a golden rule, and if he goes to the United States and gets involved with those people, he will be punished by death!
After weighing the two, Lin Chaoyang said: "Broken sleeves, Long Yang's habit has been there in ancient times. Those who see it will not blame it, but the strangeness will be destroyed. In modern society, everyone has the right to choose their own life and must know not to interfere with each other.
."
"But I think Americans don't think so. They always like to impose their ideas on others, and so do these homosexuals.
Their orientation is different from that of ordinary people. After all, they are outside the mainstream, but they are going to the public, which is too domineering."
Seeing that his eldest nephew had such a positive view, Lin Chaoyang took a snack and said, "The Americans act like this. They are very domineering. You will know when you go to the United States."
"But I think they highly respect you." Tao Xiwen said again.
"In any country, strength is the best way to win respect!"
Listening to Lin Chaoyang's words, Tao Xiwen thought that Lin Chaoyang was giving him some advice. He nodded, "Thank you uncle, I remember!"
Tao Xiwen passed the Shuimu two years ago and studied hard. She planned to graduate early and study abroad.
According to Shuimu's regulations, you must submit a written application and study plan one year in advance for graduation, and complete all courses, and be included in the unified management of the graduation grade.
In July just passed, Tao Xiwen successfully completed all the undergraduate courses and officially graduated from Shuimu.
Two months earlier, he had successfully applied for a master's degree at Stanford University.
During this period, he ran to Xiangjiang and worked at Sugar Games, praised himself for the cost of studying abroad, and waited for Stanford University to start in September.
The two were talking, and Tao Xiwu came back from outside with his wet hair. He had just finished swimming in the pool.
"It's so cool! Uncle, your swimming pool is much more enjoyable than swimming pool!"
Lin Chaoyang looked at his dark skin, then looked at the white Tao Xiwen, who was also born to a mother.
This is a bit big.
"Where are you reading the newspaper again? What's the best thing to look at?"
Without Lin Chaoyang's response, Tao Xiwu was not embarrassed. He glanced at the newspaper in his elder brother's hand and said, "It's in English? It's boring!"
It’s not that the English newspaper is boring, it’s that he really can’t understand it, so Tao Xiwen sees it through and doesn’t say it through.
"I read the newspaper that day, and it said that my aunt and younger sister are 'two beauties breaking the boundaries', "the business sisters", it's so amazing!"
Although I don’t know what newspaper Tao Xiwu was reading, according to his habits, it is likely that after the gossip tabloid sugar game was acquired by Yulang organization, Tao Yumo became famous in the Xiangjiang business world.
Also, because of the fact that his sister Tao Yushu became famous first, many media always like to tie up the two sisters when reporting to attract readers' attention.
Xiangjiang media and citizens have always liked this family narrative. Li Zekai became famous after selling satellite TV.
Known as Little Superman; the Luo family of Eagle King Real Estate is called "A Five Heroes" by the media.
When they arrived at the Tao Yushu sisters, some media shouted the name "Two Beauties of the Tao", and Tao Yumo was extremely proud of this.
Her compliment was not only because she became famous in the business world, but also for some other reasons.
In the past media narratives, Tao Yushu's name was "Lin Tao Yushu" or "Lin Tai". Now it is tied to Tao Yumo, and Tao Yushu finally has his own surname in the media narratives.
Tao Yumo believes that this is all her credit.
"You'd better say this in front of your sister-in-law. When she is happy, she will throw you a little bit of melon and two dates. If you don't you get rich immediately?" Lin Chaoyang joked.
Tao Xiwu laughed and said, "Uncle, you have a good idea. I'll try it when my sister-in-law comes back."
Seeing his younger brother's cynical attitude, Tao Xiwen couldn't help but shake his head.
After talking for a while, Tao Xiwu asked Tao Xiwen if he would watch a movie. Tao Xiwen said he would not watch it, so he ran to the audio studio by himself.
Lin Chaoyang's family has its own audio and video studio, which is not very useful, but the facilities are first-class, especially the copies of hundreds of movies, which look so cool.
I watched a movie in the audio-visual room. The nanny came to call Tao Xiwu for dinner. He came to the restaurant and asked Lin Chaoyang excitedly: "Uncle, is it difficult to shoot an animation like "Chinese Heroes"?"
"The Hero of China" was only out of stock two days ago, and it has achieved a box office of HK$30.24 million in its own port. It is currently being released in mainland China, Bay Island, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions.
The box office was not a big hit, but in terms of cartoons, this result was already quite good.
"I don't know about this. If you want to understand it, let your sister-in-law take you to the company and ask for advice from professionals."
Tao Xiwu looked at Tao Yumo, "My sister-in-law!"
"Take you to change your career and don't make trouble for me!"
After the sugar game was sold, Tao Yumo has been promoted to vice president of Yulang organization and second-in-command of the company. He is truly "below one person, above ten thousand people."
"My sister-in-law, you are too partial. My brother is just working at your company. Why am I going to make trouble?"
"What your brother learned can really help in the company. What do you know?"
Tao Xiwu was discriminated against by his relatives, and said, "You are discriminating against your academic qualifications. Wouldn't he go to a good university?"
Tao Yumo sneered, "I'm not discriminating on education, I'm discriminating on IQ!"
Tao Xiwu:
After struggling for a while, he felt that his little arm could not twist his thighs, and he smiled and flattered Tao Yumo, and finally won the opportunity to visit and study at Yulang's institution.
A few days later, the Barcelona Olympics opened in a hot spot. The Chinese team sent 251 athletes to participate in the competition, and finally won a good result of 16 gold, 22 silver and 16 bronzes, ranking fourth in the medal list.
When watching the closing ceremony, Tao Xiwu looked forward to it and said, "I don't know when our country will host the Olympics!"
Since the end of the Yanjing Asian Games, the Yanjing Municipal Government has regarded Yanjing's bid for the Olympics as a top priority, but it has always been a secret state.
"It will be held, it's just a matter of time." Lin Chaoyang said with a smile.
Nearly September has passed since the Olympics ended. One of the two brothers Tao Xiwen and Tao Xiwu are going to go back to Yanjing to apply for graduate students, and the other is going to start school, so they go back to Yanjing together.
At the end of the month, Zhang Yimou came to Xiangjiang with a copy of "Qiu Ju's lawsuit".
In a few days, he will take this film adapted from Lin Chaoyang's early short story to participate in this year's Venice international film industry.
As early as a week ago, "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" had an internal premiere at Yan Film Studio. At that time, all the well-known domestic directors and film critics were present.
Everyone gave high praise to "Qiu Ju's lawsuit", which made Zhang Yimou feel much more relaxed.
Last year, he filmed "The Big Red Lantern" and won the Silver Lion Award in the Venetian film industry, but this movie has a polarized reputation at home and abroad.
Foreigners think this movie is beautiful and has a Chinese artistic conception.
But many people in China believe that "The Big Red Lantern Hanging High" is suspected of revealing its shortcomings and pleasing foreigners with feudal bad habits.
Such contradictory reputation evaluation made Zhang Yimou feel at a loss for a moment. He was not busy celebrating the achievements for some days after winning the Silver Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival.
Instead, he dragged the crew to discuss the mistakes in the movie, and finally summarized more than 30 mistakes. This time, the film "Qiu Ju's lawsuit" was filmed. The content of the story reflects the appearance of the Chinese countryside, which is what he has always been good at, but it is different.
What is, he learned the lesson of "The Big Red Lantern Hanging High".
