Lu Xun literature prize has revealed the inside story: | the Chinese writers ' Association judges become winners _ news

From 1998 the first Lu Xun literature awards so far, 191 people have won the award. However, starting from the third, the Favorites of Chinese literary prize has been revealed "the inside story", was questioned. Are people where there are rivers and lakes, perhaps literary effort

Rule of law the weekend Wuch

On May 16, the sixth session of the LU Xun literature prize selection works entered the public stage, with 1362 articles (Department) works in accordance with the award regulations selection criteria. Participating writers are veteran such as Wang Meng, Wang Anyi, Zong Pu's literary circles, would also like Chiang Kai-shek, Lu Min, winter young writers like June.

Sixth Lu Xun literature award, the literary circle during a Carnival, Chairman of the Hubei provincial writers ' Association, however, one famous writers Fang microblogging has broken this "beautiful". She accused a poet can be passed a unanimous vote of this province, was recommended to the Chinese writers ' Association selection Lu Xun literature prize is not strength but rather from "featured move around before."

The poet was later confirmed as Liu Zhong Yang. Fang Liu Zhongyang questioned is not the first controversy of the LU Xun literature prize.

Fourth Lu Xun literature prize award, because a number of the judges suffered a crisis of confidence; the fifth Lu Xun literature prize was awarded the poetry prize in Wuhan City, Hubei Province discipline Che Yangao work is too colloquial, and was dubbed the "Lamb".

Challenge faced, the Chinese writers ' Association has not been a positive response.

Comment that, after each war of words, how to defend the dignity of the LU Xun literature prize, still unable to put on the agenda, I am afraid, is handling the matter, acquiescence and connivance of the Judges Act, to challenge public opinion studiously avoided.

This challenging Fang Liu Zhongyang, not only a discussion of the case, is a letter of the LU Xun literature award, as well as monitoring mechanisms "hotline".

　　Another "spat"

On May 25, Fang said on Twitter, "a colleague said, I'm a poet in the LU Xun literature award by the provincial writers ' Association to the Chinese writers ' Association selection recommendation, adopted by a unanimous vote. I was so angry. Poems written poorly, featured around before activity. Such a person should be resisted. Writers ' Association attitude clearer. But he did get done with all the judges. Judges are university professors. Professors favor light literature. Helpless. I believe that the person is being Beijing judges move around. We'll see what happens. "

Although not directly named the poet's name in the Twitter, but then Fang in his poem posted on Twitter, "Kuomintang party, dawn. Huangpu Army Institute, United. Chen du-Xiu's Sun Yat-Sen, KMT-CPC cooperation. Jiangzhongzhengmaozedong, alongside the brothers ", it is easy to let users find the poet's true identity – Liu Zhongyang, those few words of excerpts of poetry from his novel, the song of Lingnan.

For each of the several verses, Fang gives such evaluation: when I saw the poet essential poems with lines like, I really felt that the provincial writers ' Association cannot recommend such works to the Chinese writers ' Association selection prize of Shandong province.

According to open of information can check, "Liu Zhongyang, 1969 health, origin Hubei Huanggang, guest Lingnan; famous poet, China contemporary culture epic creation of representative figures"; body and "national landscape resorts district Yueyang Tower literature consultant" "China native poet Association Deputy President" "Hubei Province of literary and art circles literature art homes distinguished Deputy Dean, Guangdong Province culture learned Deputy President", social positions; representatives except Lingnan song under, also has Chu song under, and country Sao under, and world jiangshan yellow crane tower under,.

Hubei Writers Association recommended his entries for the free world is riding a yellow crane and Changjiang literary publishing house featured the songs of Chu--Liu Zhong Yang poem selected.

This is not the first time candidate Liu Zhongyang Lu Xun literature award. Liu Zhongyang had its candidates in the South in Guangdong Province Lu Xun literature award, failed to make cut.

When it comes to the Lingnan song defeated, Liu Zhongyang said for a number of reasons, including poor organisation of the Awards Office is the most important reason, there is some qualities the judges can't "second-rate or third-rate judge comments on class work, with predictable results."

This time the party blamed on Twitter, Liu Zhongyang believes that a delegate must first read his poem to qualify instead of dialogue. To this end, Liu Zhong Yang issued a long statement through a portal Web site, which he called party accusing it of relate expression, legal implications, "this disinformation, please show evidence! If there is no evidence that that's what you're accusing me of. " He said, "micro-blog and website screenshots, it's enough to take her, which days will be prosecuted in the courts."

In this statement, Liu Zhong Yang to fight "essays, poetry, reasoning line! Limited in their poems. You are strong than me, I learn from you; you're worse than me, I salute you! ”

In this regard, respect, because Liu Zhongyang phone call she is active. After receiving the call, Fang was the Party Secretary of Hubei provincial writers ' Association reflects this. Clerk told her, Liu Zhongyang party which invited people to dinner, Secretary refused. Then the party called to remind heads of specific projects.

And in the end, Liu Zhong Yang was also unanimously adopted.

In fact, in order to award fair and stamp out fraud, selected works of Lu Xun literature Award selection process of Hubei Province and Lu Xun literature Award selection process is very similar, in each category, poetry groups, the establishment of a pool of judges chosen randomly extracted from the jury pool when the judges list, the provincial writers ' Association works left to the interim award jury, made its independent operation, does not interfere with the results.

Fang Fang said that although she is Chairman of the writers ' Association of Hubei Province, but less interference in the selection of Lu Xun literature Award selection lists of these things, and heard Liu Zhong Yang until very recently unanimously.

Hebei provincial writers ' Association's weekend of the rule, a staff member told reporters that his Department is not responsible for the judging of the entries, but literature evaluation is subjective, there is no single standard, Liu Zhongyang works not for nothing.

Before the outbreak of the incident, Liu Zhongyang South song has on numerous occasions been "rewarded".

Featured list of the Chinese writers ' Association public in Lu Xun's literary prize, a media Professor, zhongnan University, Guangdong and Taiwan Institute of Gu Yuanqing to the thick and burning passion for interesting review paper. Gu Yuanqing said in the paper, Liu Zhongyang poetry drawn from classical Chinese literature and folklore has many strengths, with distinctive national features, this with those "zhangerheshangmobuzhetounao" poetry cannot compare.

Two years ago, Xiong Guohua, a Professor of Chinese at Guangdong College of education has praised the Lingnan songs as "rare epic of rare Chinese literature, literature of the world."

But clearly the writer delegate has its own different evaluations, and thus lead to this "show" staged.

Hubei provincial writers ' Association if the start self-examination, how to deal with issues such as Liu Zhong Yang may initiate legal proceedings, Fang said "are saying on Twitter that said," and then hung up the reporter's phone.

But a passage of Fang Fang's microblog, can still see the thing is no accident.

"For their award-winning works up and down is a great indignity and extremely embarrassing. Even the award-winning, the shame is always there. But why are so many people and women struggled to do so? Because government intervention is too deep. Numerous personal interest, for not winning as a standard. After winning the individual benefit is too large. To a lot of people would rather have affordable and not others. Literature of award at some point hurt. Many readers cannot judge the merits of literary works. ”

　　Lu awards over the years, "Insider" heavily

Hubei provincial writers ' Association's official website--Hubei writers network shows, top five Lu Xun literature prize, upon recommendation of the writers ' Association of Hubei Province and eventually winning a total of 8 persons, which provide Chi li, Liu Xinglong, Deng Yiguang, Chen Yingsong, Hu Shiquan, Tian He, Fang Fang, the range of extended high.

Likewise is the LU Xun literature award, the same is a poetry class, also in Hubei Province, such a coincidence, it is easy to think of extending high "Lamb". If the two poets controversy arising from an accident in Hubei, and controversy of the LU Xun literature prize, but as much as inevitable, are occurring almost every award.

Lu Xun literature award is one of the nation's highest literary awards sponsored by the Chinese writers ' Association, and Mao Dun literature prize, Lao She literature award, Cao Yu drama literature awards and said China's four literary awards, its predecessor, was influential in the late 70 's "national short story Award". Maodun literature awards range in the field of novel, long outside the LU Xun literature awards categories include short stories, essays, translation theory, total synthesis, such as one selection.

From 1998 the first Lu Xun literature prize award to date, a total of 191 people had received the award, domestic important writers Shi tie-sheng, Chi zijian, bi feiyu, Yan lianke 's, such as Su Tong, Liu qingbang's has won this award.

Lu Xun literary prize was established by the Chinese writers ' Association to commemorate Lu Xun literature prize, but till today, and this award seems to be writers ' association known as the "great standard-bearer of China's new culture movement of" Lu Xun has been slipping away.

In 2004, third Lu Xun literature prize, if the judges ' poet-critic Chen Chao won the national award for excellence in literary theory and literary criticism was an accidental, the fourth judge radar, Li Jingze, Ho Chian and Hong Zhigang, who has become, the LU Xun literature prize winners, it was Lu Xun literature award by the outside world as "the biggest cover-up."

Questioned, radar tells rule of law reporter over the weekend, he was the Vice Chairman of national excellent Novella Prize jury, and he received the national award for outstanding reviews of literary theory, before the final list he doesn't know to win the prize, cannot, as someone put it, give yourself a prize.

Fourth question has not shut up, th due to extended high "Lamb" raise questions the sound. Subsequently, the winner of literature theoretical criticism class, Chinese Department of North China University Associate Professor Tan Xudong works of the early reconstruction and reconstruction of children's literature was also accused of copying, "330,000 words among the 70% or 230,000 words are copied."

In this regard, the fifth Lu Xun literature prize review final evaluation Committee Director Wang Jucai of literary theory, "about two or three days of review time, reading a large, very nervous, can't read that much work. Not all judges have seen every participating works ".

For questions such as literary critic, media, the Chinese writers ' Association to "investigations", "we checked, no problem," and "come up with evidence to" to respond.

Has openly broke the "Lu Xun literature prize is that money can buy. Lu Prize winner is something that money cannot buy, and some are. Run prize is a writers ' Association within the framework of a writer's life event "poet Shen Haobo, writers ' Association's response was not good enough," at the press conference, writers ' Association Mr Wang claimed that the discipline Inspection Department, already checked, Lu Xun literature prize, no problem. Their problems to find out for myself, so eager, brothers admire. "

One Insider has revealed in a media interview, circle winners have such a popular phrase: "know who is winning, but I do not know which Book Prize. "In his view, the candidate in each category, and often only one or two are deserving of the award-winning works, most of the winning entries from either artistic or literary value and is questionable.

As served in Lu Xun's literary awards judges what poet Zhao Lihua said: "don't have to care about a fake name of Lu Xun's Awards. ”

　　How much cannot be said to have a secret?

In early 2014, the staff members of the Chinese writers ' Association to accept the rule of law said in a weekend interview, writers ' Association has the LU Xun literature award regulations were amended, the amended regulations should make selection of the LU Xun literature prize more standard.

End of February, the LU Xun literature award regulations publish revisions. Compared with the last session, the selection becomes a real vote by secret ballot, winning the real voting results released along with the awards, increase the transparency of the selection, the judges are accountable to the ballot. At the same time, length of awards from "once every three years" with the words "once every four years."

Jie Xizhang critics pointed out that previous literary award was always doubted the black-box operation, you will have some ideas, real voting is an opening move, so that everyone can understand the whole process, this is a step forward.

However the real voting results have not yet displayed, Fang and Liu Zhongyang the battle of the black-box operation, was sixth on Lu Xun literature prize to push ahead the air waves.

According to the Chinese writers ' Association said, during the public notice period, the Chinese writers ' Association to receive complaints and reports will be carefully verified, and truthfully report to the jury. The writer questioned Fang, more transparency can make the LU Xun literature prize, writer of many writers ' Association is not aware of the matter, don't have time for an interview, and not convenient to comment on the refusal of the interview.

Which muffled and some persons, makes people more curious, can say anything really about this secret.

Critic Liu Hongbo had seen a retrospective information, which marked authorship of the LU Xun literature Award for poetry award, media officer, magazine editor, resonated.

These people awarded the recommended way to/from the LU Xun literature award, "the Member of the Chinese writers ' Association, the propaganda Department of the Chinese people's Liberation Army General political Department Arts Council recommended this author's works of the system, the newspaper society, publishers recommend this publication and published works, site recommend this site with Internet publishing licence published works".

Famous outlets would naturally imply, a publishing company employee told the weekend of rule of law, so many awards now, writers are not particularly care whether the award-winning, quality of some lesser-known works or authors in General, hoping that a combination of "Lu" visibility, natural care, there may be abuses.

The fifth Lu Xun literature award bonuses rose from 10,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan, but not all of the award winners. In addition to this bonus, incentives could be considerable. According to the insiders have said, when the poet Fu Tianlin, Sichuan won a million-dollar House; Jiangsu writers Su Tong won 80,000 reward; writer Wang in October to work most people admire in Guangdong, Dongguan city, Guangdong Province, Shenzhen, three places and awards, awards total number as high as 600,000 yuan.

In China's system of judging system, "won the national major awards" for a promotion, get promoted, the welfare of the people plays a very important role.

"Within the framework of" writer, the writer describing writers ' Association Member, as Chairman of the writers ' Association of Hubei Province, Fang is not only within the framework of a writer, and also by virtue of the piano break won the fifth Lu Xun literature award, Novella award. Even as far back as 1987, Fang Novella won the LU Xun literature award of the landscape--the predecessor of the national award for best Novella.

Both beneficiaries, why do you have to open the lid, Fang believes that it was a matter of "professional dignity" and that "in recent years, I chaired the experts compiled the Hubei literature history in colleges and universities of Hubei Province, is deep. Contemporary volumes of writing, writers were selected mainly determined with reference, it can only be dominated by various literary awards and literary xuankan. Time is too long, too many books, filter them again later, researchers from the voluminous works, improbable. If literature does not comment on good, contemporary literature in the eyes of future generations is zouxing. Many good writers and good works are slams. ”

Since the China writers ' Association is an organization of the Association, after having repeatedly suffered a crisis of confidence, why can't you go on administration, to accept outside monitoring of changes, even as some writers as called for in the "dissolution of the writers ' Association"?

NGO said Wang Ming, Director of the Institute of Tsinghua University, the Chinese writers ' Association is different from the general social organization, writers ' Association is the people's organizations, political organizations, and reform by the Central charge of the writers ' Association.

Just as the introduction of the Chinese writers ' network, the Chinese writers ' Association is the party and the Government links the majority of writers, literary bridges and ties. Its main tasks, the institutions and the number of leadership positions in preparation of management is directly determined by the central bodies, although they are non-governmental organizations, but to a large extent the exercise of some government functions.

Fortunately, on literary works are not only winning, readers will buy make judgments and evaluations, what is a real writer, is ruled by the time.
