student Posted October 7, 2007 at 11:47 AM Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 at 11:47 AM I recently became aware of the genre of the Chinese short short story, http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/200412/24/eng20041224_168556.html and http://www.las.iastate.edu/newnews/mu0823.shtml Such stories, typically about 1500 characters long, are apparently quite popular now. Does anyone have favorites of this genre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
student Posted October 9, 2007 at 06:15 PM Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 at 06:15 PM Here is a very short example, “书法家” 司玉笙 书法比赛会上，人们围住前来观看的高局长，请他留字。 “写什么呢?”高局长笑眯眯地提起笔，歪着头问。 “写什么都行。写局长最得心应手的好字吧。” “那我就献丑了。”高局长沉吟片刻，轻抖手腕落下笔去。立刻，两个劲秀的大字从笔端跳到宣纸上：“同意”。 人群里发出啧啧的惊叹声。有人大声嚷道：“请再写几个!” 高局长循声望去，面露难色地说： “不写了吧——能写好的就数这两个字……” (选自《世界华文微型小说大成》) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankcupid Posted November 18, 2007 at 02:07 PM Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 at 02:07 PM it makes me think of a joke 局长有三个字写的最好 就是“不同意” 因为每天都要批示很多文件 看完之后写上“同意”或者“不同意” 久而久之 这三个字越写越漂亮 一次日本举办的书法家交流会 大家都推荐这位局长参加 于是他就去了 会上人们都听说这位局长有一笔漂亮的书法 可谁也没见过 结果有人提议他现场写一副字 局长很为难 但又不好推辞 于是急中生智 写了一首古体诗 内容是说日语里面有很多汉字 但意思又不一样 同字不同意, 同意不同字。 字同意不同, 意同字不同。 众人皆拍手称赞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
