Chapter 860 Seed Contestants
The Nobel Prize in Literature rewards not only people in the pure literary circle, but also those who write novels, poems, and scripts, and also include other works that reflect literary value in form and content.
In other words, this award can be awarded to philosophers, religious writers, scientists and historians, provided that their works have artistic characteristics in literary expression and high value in content.
Why can the Swedish Daily reveal Lin Han’s news, and so many people believe it.
The so-called Nobel Prize in Literature is actually the Swedish Academy Award. Its name and prize money come from the Nobel legacy, but the power to judge and award awards is in the hands of the Swedish Academy of Literature.
The Swedish Academy is an official academic structure, supported by funding from the Swedish king and government, and the Swedish Daily is the official newspaper of the ruling party, which can be regarded as the mouthpiece of the government!
If it is another media, there will definitely be more doubts from the outside world.
In front of him, Lin Han successfully advanced to the short list and entered the final selection stage. The news was released through the Swedish Daily, with at least 80% authenticity!
A news from Stockholm caused a sensation in the world, reminding people that the annual speculation is about to begin again.
AFP and BBC are very efficient and have been reprinted one after another.
"The 2018 Nobel short list is released, and Lin Han may become the youngest nominee!"
"Authoritative media revealed the short list, and Lin Han won the penalty list. He is expected to become the first science fiction writer to win in the history of the Nobel Prize in Literature!"
The domestic media are not idle either. Most of the time they don’t pay attention to media like the Swedish Daily, but some employees have been watching BBC and AFP for a long time. After all, it is one of the three major news agencies in the world.
Xinhuanet quickly followed up, gave a translation version directly, and made great guesses!
"Recently, when we were still immersed in the shock of the Matrix series brought by Lin Han, the annual Nobel Prize selection event has begun in Sweden, Nordic. According to the latest reports from authoritative foreign media recently, Chinese science fiction writer Lin Han and Japanese writer Haruki Murakami will most likely be competitors of this year's Nobel Prize in Literature. This year's Nobel Prize in Literature will be produced among these two writers.
On the list of claims and rates announced by the world's famous betting company Unibet, Lin Han, a young Chinese science fiction writer who participated in the Nobel Prize in Literature for the first time, has always been in a situation of growth in rankings, moving from outside the list to third place now, and Haruki Murakami is now ranked first!
So from the truth, who can compete with these two people is the final winner?
The day when the truth is revealed may have to be until October, so let's wait and see!"
It is natural that Xinhuanet's position in domestic media is not much. Chen Jiaxuan only realized that Lin Han joined the melee after seeing these screenshots on Weibo.
Haruki Murakami is very similar to Li Zi before this year. Since 2009, he has been regarded as a popular candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature for many years, but he always runs with him and never wins the award!
From competing with Mo Yan to Lin Han now, he felt like he had been with him for two generations in a trance.
Some people laughed and said that it is not a news now that Haruki Murakami ranks first on the forecast list. If he is not at the top of the list, it is news. Of course, the biggest news will be the end of the runner's ten thousand years.
Over the years, this writer from Japan has seen many losses. The writer on the list won the Nobel Prize, leaving only him alone!
However, judging from the prediction results of last year, people seem to have added some hope for Haruki Murakami this year, because the author who won the award last year surpassed Haruki Murakami at the last minute and ranked first on the forecast list.
In recent years, more and more writers have been shortlisted for the prediction list, and the Nobel Prize has a synchronized trend with the prediction list, proving that the lottery companies must have mastered information channels that ordinary people do not have.
Now Lin Han’s compensation rate is still steadily decreasing, which proves that his chance of winning is getting higher and higher!
"Let me see what competitors you have this year."
Chen Jiaxuan quickly checked it with her mobile phone. For a writer, it is very rare to be promoted to the short list. If you win an award, you can only depend on luck.
I don’t know if the old guys from the Swedish Academy like science fiction, and would like to see a young science fiction writer from China win the Literature Award!
Lin Han's head is constantly churning. The Nobel Prize likes to expand his literary horizons and confirm his literary achievements. Many award-winning writers have broadened their literary horizons. If they don't win the award, they may be forgotten.
In other words, the School of Literature has given some people more than half of the time to encourage those unpopular writers who are thinking. Many world-famous writers have never won the Nobel Prize, such as Tolstoy and Kafka have not won the award!
In this way, will you get extra points as an unpopular writer?
But the works are too popular and too popular. Such writers no longer need to use the Nobel Prize in Literature to attract readers' attention, which has become a deduction for points.
Chen Jiaxuan didn't know what Lin Han was thinking. She read it in a script: "In addition to Haruki Murakami who ranked first and Lin Han who ranked third, the second-place Kenyan writer Nguzi Watiango, American writer Philip Ross and Joyce Carroll, as well as Israeli writer Amos Oz, they are all popular writers who compete for the Nobel Prize every year. Because they are mentioned every year and are very popular every year, the probability of winning is not high."
"Dear, it is said online that the Nobel Prize often gives a fresh face. I think you have a great chance!" Chen Jiaxuan said comfortingly.
Most of the people in front of me are old faces. I'm afraid the judges of the Swedish Academy have read their works several times, and the short list cannot always make this group of people shortlist repeatedly. Isn't this an opportunity to kill the other writers?
As a European-led literary prize, more than 50% of the Nobel Prize winners are Europeans, and there are more ways to give European writers. Writers from other countries may have to spend some time in order to get into the eyes of judges.
It is worth mentioning that there are several other Chinese writers on this loss rate list. Yan Lianke ranks 39th, and his works have been popular overseas in recent years.
Lin Han had never heard of the other people, and he didn't know how foreign lottery companies brought these writers to the sky-high price!
