Why do camels cry?
Why do camels cry? Dialogue 3: I haven't written many books, only five. The titles of these five books are The Story of the Sahara, The Rainy Season Never Comes, The Scarecrow's Notes, The Crying Camel and The Gentle Night. I have reviewed it myself, and I always remember a writer saying to me, "You must never reveal the secret of the article in the title". This sentence is very good. If you show the content of the article directly from the title, others will know what is written in it at a glance and guess what you wrote, which is not exciting enough. Give a few favorite examples. For example, when I was writing about how to cook for my husband in my family life, I gave it a terrible name, China Hotel. This topic is a failure, because there is no content, no twists and turns, and no secrets about China Hotel. It can be said that it has failed. Later, after Reader's Digest excerpted this manuscript, I changed it to Hotel in the Desert, which was the first article and not a successful topic. I wrote down the process of treating people in various strange ways in the desert. At this time, I thought of a sentence called "hanging pot to save the world", which made a little progress. I also wrote about how friends in the desert got married. Because the bride is only ten years old, I chose the name "doll bride", which is still not very good because the title has leaked the content of the article. Another time, I went to explore the desert and fell into the mud beach. I couldn't get out, so I thought, should I write a desert adventure? Later, I remembered that there was a Russian song called "Night on a Barren Mountain", which I thought was ok, because the reader couldn't guess what it was written. I slowly explained to you what happened here in the article, and the topic disappeared. Driving in the desert, the police often give me trouble, because I am the only China person there, and they also know that I don't have a driver's license and I am still running around there. The only way to prevent the police from arresting me is to take a driver's license. After the exam, it is not good to want to write an article called "Driving Test in the Desert". It was a common experience and I thought about it for a long time. There is a saying in the Bible that when Jacob was dreaming, there was a ladder in the sky to let him go up. He climbed a few squares and then came down. It is probably such a thing that reminds me of the driver's license test from registration, to school, to "written test", to "field test" and to ". Look at "Ladder" and "Ladder". What does it want to write? When you give him such a temptation, he can't help watching until the end. Why are they called ladders? This is an indirect way to arouse curiosity and then show him what the content is. After reading the content, readers will not think that the ladder and the driver's license test are inappropriate, because there are explanations in it. Once again, I went to see how the locals in the desert take a bath, because they often take a bath for a long time. With great curiosity, I took a look. Later, I couldn't figure out what topic to write, so I came up with the worst topic, called Desert Bath. Once my husband and I went fishing at the seaside. Because of the high cost, it takes a long drive to catch fish in the desert, so I said to my husband, "Let's take the caught fish back to the desert and do business." "When we sell fish in the desert, if we want to achieve our goal, the most direct thing is the story of selling fish in the desert-it is a desert anyway. I can't think of it, but the word fish can't be ignored, because I really wrote "fish" The last topic, which I like very much, is "amateur fishermen". There is an amateur painter in France. They don't sell paintings for a living, but they paint every Sunday, so they call themselves "amateur painters". Amateur painters can be called amateur painters, so we should be called "amateur fishermen" who sell fish on Saturday. Ordinary readers may not know the name "amateur", so "amateur fishermen", they may think, strange fish is meat, why are they called amateur fishermen? Probably a vegetarian to go fishing! Then such a topic is also very successful and suitable for the content. When I returned to China four years ago, it seemed that there was a magazine called Modern Photography, and they asked me for a manuscript. They said that you must write an article about taking pictures in the desert and hand it in within two days. I was annoyed by their urging, so I said, "Well, I'll give it to you tomorrow morning, so I don't have to worry. "So I wrote an article on how to take pictures in the desert, but this topic is difficult to think about, because I am not a very romantic person, and the topic I chose is too irrelevant. I thought about it for a long time. What should I choose for my experience of taking pictures in the desert? As a result, I chose a good topic called Soul Collection. Because people in the desert really think that if you do what he says, his soul will be sucked in by the camera, which is absolutely unwilling. This can be said to be a very primitive place, your camera, they are very scared, so in this case, this photo article is more successful because it has a good name. I also wrote a novella about my 23-day life in West Africa and Nigeria, which is the real life record of my husband and me. At that time, we had been unemployed 12 months and had nothing to do. We sent a letter to the largest oil company in the world, because my husband is a diving engineer, so we had to go to the oil company to find a job in this field. 12 months later, a friend introduced us to Nigeria, a small German diving engineering company. My husband went for four months before I went. In these four months, he didn't get a dime salary. His passport was withheld by his boss, and he had to work 16 hours a day. But why didn't he leave? It's not because of the passport deduction, because I think at that time, for a man, the mood of unemployment was terrible. He is afraid that if he loses this job, he doesn't know how many years it will take to find a job he likes. After I went there, I experienced all kinds of unpleasant things, and the most important thing was that I never got my salary. Once, I saw a receipt that this company charged $5,000 per hour for other companies' projects, and this work was done by my husband alone. In other words, he earned $5,000 an hour for the company, and our salary is about $2,500 a month, but the company didn't pay it. Of course, the price I said may be incredible in Taiwan Province province, but it is Nigerian. In this way, under the extremely unpleasant work, I wrote an article with reservations, because if I write it all, readers may think that I am exaggerating. As a result, we still lived there for eight months, got about three months' salary, and finally left in failure. I've been thinking about the title of this article for a long time, but I just can't figure it out. It was May at that time, and I suddenly felt that May should be a flowering season, so I called it Mayflower. I know a restaurant in Taiwan Province Province called "Mayflower", but I'm not afraid of it. My target is also readers in Taiwan Province Province. But when I think of Mayflower, I feel the same way. I feel that when we work there, it is as if we are selling our bodies and souls. So this is a subconscious. Why do such unpleasant memories choose such a beautiful name, called "Mayflower"? I mentioned understatement in my article. Readers will forget if they don't read carefully. After coming back from work for more than ten hours, my fingers were almost broken, and I fell asleep in bed without saying anything. When I was asleep, my article said something to him, saying, "Go to sleep! Because there is no sob in the dream, only in the dream can you see the flowers in May. " That's it, because it's completely opposite to the theme. Why is it called Mayflower? Because we were looking for flowers in May, but we didn't get them. This is the strangest topic I have ever received. On the contrary, I gave it such a name, but after my readers talked to me, I found that they were deeply impressed by this article and firmly remembered the title. I asked them again, do you know why I call it Mayflower? He is right! Because you didn't see the flowers in May! In the last year, we left the desert, and we were caught in a political wave, describing that Western Sahara would be divided between Morocco and Mauritania in the south. This matter has been debated for a long time at the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Finally, the International Court of Justice in The Hague ruled that the local Saharans decided their own future. On this day, King Hassan of Morocco announced the beginning of a peaceful March. This is a terrible thing, because where I live, it is only 40 kilometers away from the Moroccan border. Our Spanish government, as if it didn't know the people's hearts, showed us a documentary about Morocco on our TV news every day, how it formed a team and how it came to the Sahara. We were really scared to death after reading it. And because they came singing and dancing, the feeling was even more terrible than they were holding guns and knives. The king walked in front, then the people behind him were playing drums, and the troops behind him were dancing on the avenue. At this time, I thought of what we called "besieged on all sides" in ancient times, which was really a terrible experience in my life. Your enemy is coming, but he is singing and dancing. At that time, King Hassan said that he would take the Spanish Sahara on the 23rd, and he 17 began to March. Hassan knows psychology very well. He didn't say I was going to take the Spanish Sahara, but he said, "I'll come and have tea with you on the 23rd." This sentence almost scared me to death. In such a turbulent era, there are guerrillas and a phosphorite company in Xizhengya, with about 2,000 employees, women, schools, Spanish troops and police, and so many different people. How did they react at the last minute? I thought of this, observed it, and wanted to write it. However, if you write like reporting literature without a protagonist, no one will go through the needle in this matter. So I took out a special thing, that is, the leader of the guerrillas at that time was named Basili. He is my good friend, and his wife Shaida is a nurse in a hospital. She takes the life and death of the two of them as the framework of the whole novel and quotes these things in the background. At that time, I was probably one of the last four foreign women in the Sahara. This article was written in a novella. I drafted a title. The first title that comes to mind is not very good. Later, my husband said, "Did Taiwan Province province show the movie The Last Tango in Paris?" I said it was forbidden to hear, and he said, "Will others think of this?" Will this topic be banned? "I said no! Probably not! Because this tango is not from Paris. After writing this article, I can't think of a title. Later, I changed many forms and finally came up with the simplest one-crying camel. Why are you crying? At that time, my friend Shaida was raped and asked her husband's brother to kill her. This is the tragedy of a great era. It was named "crying camel", which is the best and most appropriate of my four books. It didn't disclose the content. The titles of some of my own articles are almost finished. Now analyze it again, that is, when I wrote the article, there were some places, such as "ladder", which was a topic that did not reveal the content of the article. The other is a name that is completely opposite to the content, such as Mayflower. There is also empathy, which is a tragedy, but the tragic character did not cry, but a third party-camel. Explain in detail, there is a kind of topic that is direct. The advertising proverb "Please buy a certain brand of TV" is very direct. The second is to let him guess what you want to sell. This is a ladder. Another is that you ask him to buy Mr. Wang's products, but you tell him, "There is a good thing to sell opposite Mr. Li. "If you don't mention Mr. Wang, this is the Mayflower. I think advertising and writing articles are closely related. When I was 0/8 years old, I also wrote advertisements for Guang Tai for several months. I have done several advertisements for Honda motorcycles, Kobis "The Taste of First Love". This is an advertising word that my friend and I came up with together.
