A man named Mao Xinghuo sued Mo Yan. The crimes Mao Xinghuo listed for Mo Yan were suspected of smearing and insulting heroes. What do you say about ? The captain also read a lot of Mo Yan's books, such as "Life and Death Fatigue", "Big Breasts and Wide Buttocks", etc. In these works, there is indeed a distinctive feature, that is, the image of the guerrillas is not very positive, while the landlords are kind and noble, similar to the ancient rural sages.
What impressed the captain the most was "Life and Death Fatigue". The protagonist is an old landowner named Ximen Nao. How did Ximen Nao become a landlord? According to Mo Yan's description, generations of ancestors worked diligently and accumulated land bit by bit before becoming a landlord. In reality, are there such people? There must be some. Just like today, many people started from scratch and moved from the proletariat to the property class. They even became big bosses and moved towards the bourgeoisie.
When Ximen Nao was a local landlord, he was considered a wise man in the countryside. Every time there is a disaster, Ximen Nao will open a warehouse to release grain to help the people. However, during the Landlord fight, he was defeated, shot in the head, and executed. After his death, Ximen Nao was reincarnated into a donkey. His house was confiscated, and his aunt went to live with the family's long-term worker. This long-term worker is also very interesting. His biggest dream is to own his own land. After Ximen Nao was shot, he finally got his own land.
But then, as everyone knows, private land was collectivized again. This long-term worker was a die-hard and resolutely refused collectivization. Owning land has been his lifelong dream. He was assigned land in Ximen Nao, but he was unwilling to join the collective. When we look at it from today’s perspective, it’s actually easy to understand. What is land? Land is the means of production. Who is willing to transfer his means of production to the public? Which one is willing to hand over his own house, his own factory, and even his own money to the collective? Later, household quotas replaced people's communes. In the final analysis, everyone still hoped to work as much as they could and get as much as they wanted, not to eat from the big pot, and not to share their personal property with others.
In the book "Life and Death Fatigue", the Returning Corps are gentlemen, the foreigners are also well-educated, and even the Japanese still have a certain degree of humanity, but there is one group that is indeed vilified to some extent. , the captain won’t say anything. However, does this prove that Mo Yan is guilty? In the captain's opinion, this is inappropriate and inconsistent with the spirit of justice.
What is literature? It is fictitious, imaginary, vague, and has thousands of faces. What is justice? It is real, it happens, it is unified. When Mao Xinghuo prosecuted Mo Yan, he used fictional content to define real crimes. What is this called? This is called "crimes of speech." Then someone may ask, why can’t “crime based on speech” work? Isn’t it true that spreading rumors and insulting heroes and martyrs is punishable by punishment?
It depends on the facts. Pan Shiyi’s son Pan Rui is wanted on suspicion of insulting heroes. Why was Pan Rui convicted? The key is that there must be a physical existence. For example, Pan Rui said, what happened to a certain person or a certain group of people, and what unspeakable things happened.
First of all, this person and this group must really exist and be able to match their number and identity. Then, those "unspeakable things" he published were confusing right and wrong, maliciously smearing, and spreading rumors to cause trouble. In this case, the nihility of history conflicts with authenticity. Pan Rui is guilty.
This is just like if you spread rumors, misrepresent Lei Feng, and post a large number of posts on the Internet, causing major public misunderstandings, then you must have committed a crime. However, you created a Zhang San. This Zhang San is a fictional character in literature. He is old and bad, but in history and reality, he does not match the ID number. There is no such person. Then you are just writing novels and telling stories.
Many people quoted Li Ao's words to criticize Mo Yan, saying that if you want to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, you only need to betray your motherland.The sentence has influenced many people, leading many people to believe that Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize in Literature because he criticized China, belittled China, and even vilified China. At this time, the captain is about to say a few words. The first Chinese writer to win the Nobel Prize for Literature was Lao She. But Lao She committed suicide instead of accepting the award.
In Lao She’s writing, does the suffering of Camel Xiangzi vilify China? Does the story in "Tea House" vilify China? Lu Xun did not win the Nobel Prize, but the Ah Q, Xianglin's Wife, and Kong Yiji in his works are all aimed at a certain kind of miserable life. Should we also prosecute Lu Xun?
Mo Yan’s literary status was not established by the Nobel Prize. Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2012. However, Mo Yan won the Domestic Contradiction Literature Prize in 2011.
Mao Xinghuo must not know that Mo Yan is a PLA soldier who grew up in the army and is a true veteran. In 1976, Mo Yan joined the army and served as a soldier, squad leader, and officer. In 1981, Mo Yan was awarded the rank of captain, and was later promoted to major, enjoying deputy division-level treatment. In 1984, Mo Yan was admitted to the Literature Department of the former People's Liberation Army Art Academy, which has now been merged into the National Defense University. The classic novels sued by Mao Xinghuo were first published by the People's Liberation Army Literature and Art Publishing House, and were later printed in large quantities by many publishing houses.
Mao Xinghuo must have never published a book. He didn't know that a book needs to go through three reviews and three proofreadings from completion to publication. Moreover, Mo Yan's "Red Sorghum Family" was turned into a TV series, which had to go through layers of review. If Mo Yan's books had any position issues or even legal issues, these books would never be published.
Many people only think that Mo Yan is a writer, but many people do not know that Mo Yan is also a veteran. What more people don’t know is that Mo Yan is a top modern writer who graduated from the People’s Liberation Army Art Academy.
Some people don’t like Mo Yan and can criticize Mo Yan. However, it is absolutely inappropriate to use "speech as a crime" and "virtual literature" as a crime. will go beyond the legal system and override the judicial system. At no time can public opinion forcefully dominate the independence and impartiality of the judiciary.
You can scold Mo Yan, but you cannot judge Mo Yan. This public opinion trend against Mo Yan is essentially just a carnival of traffic. Some people have discovered that engaging in antagonism between China and foreign countries can increase their followers and make money, while others have discovered that shouting "China is awesome" can increase their followers to millions and earn over 10 million per year. In this crazy traffic era, suing Mo Yan has become a business that "seems bright, but is actually just mediocre"!
