An expert can tell whether it is good or not just by looking at it.
Anyone picked up at random from this literary exchange group is a well-known figure in the cultural circle.
Those who are only seeking fame and reputation to be able to join this group must have a certain level of literary literacy, so they can see the exquisiteness of this poem at just one glance!
Some people even picked up their phones and recited the content.
The chanting method strictly follows the rhythm and fits the artistic conception, and can be said to be done in one go.
In fact, just looking at the first stanza, this poem has already shown the author's grand vision!
It is both ethereal and majestic, accompanied by a sense of distant loneliness, which is almost so powerful that it can be seen through the paper!
"When will the bright moon appear..."
The initial question was in the form of expressing one's true feelings and seemed simple.
You know, what the literary world pursues is a kind of implicit beauty, and various poets inevitably pursue complexity and infinite changes.
It's a bit of a showmanship, but more artistic.
In the eyes of some people, if it is a poem about the moon, it would be perfect if even the word "moon" does not appear.
However, this author did the exact opposite.
The poem begins with the question "When will the bright moon appear?", which has a kind of willful attitude of "I will do something even if you don't let me do it."
but…
When reading the following text, this kind of willfulness seems more like a reflection of returning to nature!
Still not convinced
Then keep watching!
From "I don't know the palace in heaven", the poet's artistic conception has changed from gurgling streams to mountain flowing water, so that when people see the following sentences of "I want to go home with the wind", they even feel the momentum of a long river entering the sea!
Yet, the words are still so ethereal.
With just a few words, a refreshing and pleasant atmosphere of the fairy palace is portrayed.
At this point, it’s too late to refuse!
Therefore, even such a high-end literary group would be alarmed. This has almost become a necessity. If a work like "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" cannot make a splash in the literary world, it is definitely a manifestation of the incompetence of the literary world at that time.
However, when the professor asked the author, the person who forwarded the message did not respond immediately.
However, the discussion on this work has already started vigorously.
"Great poem, almost the best example of moon-themed poem I have ever seen!"
"Poetry has been developed for so many years, and there are countless works with profound artistic conception. However, in our modern times, many poetry works tend to go to the extreme of complexity and change. Of course, there are masters who can return to the original simplicity, but as far as moon poems are concerned, there are very few that can reach the level of artistic conception in front of us. This author is not simple."
"indeed."
"This poem changes all the way, the artistic conception also changes all the way, and even expands, but it still manages to make light of the heavy weight..."
"What a wonderful line, 'May we live long and share the beauty of the moon, even though we are thousands of miles apart.'"
"I prefer this line, 'People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, the moon waxes and wanes'. The moon is personified, and the person is a metaphor for the moon, which complements each other."
"… "
The professor who first asked the question tagged the group member who forwarded the poem again: "Xiao Zhang, whose work is this? Don't say you wrote it. I know your own worth."
"Professor Wang, what you said makes me unable to write... Well, I really can't write lyrics like this."
The person who forwarded the message, whose ID is “Xiao Wang”, replied awkwardly.
But the big guys in the group keenly grasped the key words in Xiao Wang's words:
"lyrics?"
"Did you make a typo?"
"This is clearly the rhythm of an ancient poem. If I remember correctly, it should be 'Shui Tiao Ge Tou'. However, the author should have changed it a little bit. This is also natural. Shui Tiao Ge Tou has been passed down for so many years, and the format has changed many times."
"That's right, can those pop song lyricists write such a masterpiece?"
"Xiao Wang, you should be more careful when speaking."
"… "
Although there are big guys in the group, their status also varies.
This "Xiao Wang" is a well-known literary figure in the outside world, but he is also a junior in front of these big guys. He belongs to the group with a very low status. Anyone can scold him:
“What lyrics!”
Xiao Wang quickly shared the song "May We Live Together Forever" in the group, feeling worried in his heart.
There are a lot of old guys in this group.
What War of the Titans? That's for young people. Old guys don't care about it.
They would just hold a book and read it for the whole morning, and discuss it in the group in the afternoon. Occasionally, when there is movement in the academic world, these old guys would also consider whether to speak out...
But once they speak out, the literary world will tremble.
The group chat quieted down temporarily.
Apparently, everyone went to listen to the music.
A few minutes was enough time for everyone to finish listening to the song, and the group became lively again.
"Such a good word is actually used as a lyric? This is ridiculous!"
Some big guys seem very dissatisfied.
But then someone came up with a different opinion:
"I think this is a good idea. Young people like to listen to songs nowadays. The popularity of poetry culture is incomparable to that of songs. Combining the two can make more people interested in ancient poetry culture."
“What a waste!”
Another big guy showed up.
Opposing opinions followed closely: "Old Liu, what you said is a waste. Composing music for such a poem with a strong ancient charm will not cover up the excellence of the poem itself, and it will also help spread it."
"… "
There are more and more old guys holding two opinions, and there is even a tendency for them to quarrel.
Xiao Wang spoke cautiously: "I think... Teachers, can I speak?"
"explain!"
The professor who asked the author first spoke.
Xiao Wang typed tremblingly: "Ancient lyrics were meant to be sung in the past, but those ancient tunes have basically not been passed down. Composing music for lyrics was something that ancient people would do. Besides, this tune and the lyrics were written by the same person, Xianyu, so of course he has the right to do so."
Once these words were spoken, they triggered thinking in the group.
Although some elderly people are old-fashioned, they are not incapable of accepting correct opinions.
"That makes some sense."
“The combination of lyrics and music has indeed existed since ancient times.”
"That's right. You old folks are so out of date. I usually listen to pop songs, and this song is great. There's another pop song called "Ten Years" that I also like very much. You must have never heard of it."
"It's really well sung. The girl who sang it seems to have understood the meaning of the lyrics."
"It's the Qi in Diqihu. She didn't sing it clearly. It's qi, not yi."
"… "
Xiao Wang looked at the group chat and didn't dare to say that "Ten Years" was also Xianyu's work.
At this time.
Someone in the group asked, "The author is Xianyu, does anyone know him?"
"Envy the fish, I know."
A powerful figure who worked in the literary and art association also showed up and posted a long message:
"Didn't you discuss a few poems last year? The line 'No birds fly in the thousands of mountains, no traces of people in the thousands of paths' came from Xianyu's mouth. In addition, the peach blossom poem 'People laugh at me for being too crazy' was also written by Xianyu. It came from his movie called "Flirting Scholar". There are also some other works that I can't remember at the moment. I also asked someone to investigate. This Xianyu is a college student who has not graduated. He is very talented at a young age. I have investigated him and considered letting him join the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, but he is too young. It is not possible now."
Xiao Wang was shocked when he saw the news.
The Blue Star Literary and Art Association is also paying attention to Xianyu
This is the mouthpiece of the literary and art circles, an official department established to manage artists!
Including the seasonal rankings, various awards in the novel world, etc., are all sponsored by the Literary and Art Association!
How many departments that people are trying so hard to get into are actually seriously considering the possibility of recruiting Xianyu
In the end, he was not accepted directly, or was it because Xianyu was too young
If this situation continues, what will happen to this fish in the future
Xiao Wang shuddered, and began to wonder if he could have the chance to come into contact with this mysterious fish in the future.
"He is Xianyu?"
"A college student?"
"I understand what you said. Children like music, poetry and culture, and they like to combine the two. There's nothing wrong with that."
"It's a good seedling."
"You are so young and can write such poetry. You are a genius."
"I really like his line 'I urge you to drink another cup of wine, for there will be no friends west of Yangguan', but I don't know where Yangguan is? Is it the one in Chu or the one in Wei?"
"You can add him to the group in a few years. Good seedlings need to be protected, okay?"
A group member whose ID is just garbled characters said.
One of the representatives of the literary association quickly replied that the identity of the group member with the garbled ID was obviously not simple:
"That's for sure. Such a good seedling will not be allowed to grow crooked. The Art Association will need talents like him in the future."
"Besides, aren't the textbooks going to be revised..."
"There's something else, let's talk privately..."
This group may seem like just a casual chat, but its impact on the outside world is huge!
After chatting about "Xianyu" in the group for about two hours.
The song "May We Live Together Forever" was suddenly reposted on the official blog of the Literary and Art Association.
The accompanying text is:
"The lyrics are written strictly in accordance with the rhythm of ancient Chinese poetry. The name of the tune is "Shui Tiao Ge Tou". When will the bright moon appear? This is the best way to compose a poem about the moon!"
Immediately following.
The Homeland account with Blue Star as its profile picture retweeted: "Good!"
Official stamp, final decision!
All discussions about how excellent the lyrics of "May We Live Together Forever" are have fallen silent with the official conclusion of the Literary and Art Association.
The peak of chanting the moon!
The official conclusion is better than the praise of all lyricists and the discussions of all netizens!
at the same time.
Season leaderboard.
"May We Live Together Forever", which has been leading all songs since its release, has seen its downloads soar again, directly pushing the second place to a position that is almost invisible!
Industry.
Many people felt as if their throats were blocked before they could react. It was a certain Qu Dad who spoke out everyone's thoughts in a moment of trance:
"Twilight of the Gods..."
This is the first time in history that a song has crushed everything with its lyrics and ascended to the final throne of the battle of the gods.
