《杜拉拉升職記》可以說是目前國內最火的一部職業向導影片。同名暢銷小說《杜拉拉升職記》講述了主人公在跨國公司采取積極行動得到晉升的故事。但是,她的故事到底是不是職場生活的真實寫照呢?答案之復雜仿佛職場生活本身一樣。
DU Lala is the hottest career coach in the country. The fictional character in the acclaimed novel Du La La's Promotion shows others how to take the high road to success in a multinational company. But does her story depict a real or distorted picture of work life? The answer is as complicated as office life itself。
自2007年出版以來,該書的銷量已超100萬本。下周末,由該書改編而成的同名電影《杜拉拉升職記》將在各大影院上映。電影本身使人們對故事的興趣激增。該電影由徐靜蕾、黃立行領銜主演。但比起這個,該故事終于搬上大銀幕的消息似乎更讓粉絲們興奮。
Over one million copies of the book have been sold since its release in 2007. Go Lala Go!, a movie adaptation of the novel set to hit cinemas next weekend, has stirred up even more interest in the story. The film stars Xu Jinglei and Stanley Huang, but fans seem to be more excited about seeing the story unfold on the big screen。
新浪網一最新調查顯示,參與調查的6810名網民中,45%的參與者表示從該書中得到了職業指針。其他職場類小說,例如:《圈子圈套》、《輸贏》、《浮沉》同樣大受歡迎。
According to a recent Sina.com survey, 45 percent of the 6,810 netizens polled said they have drawn career pointers from the novel. Other office novels, such as In and Out of the Loop, Win and Lose and Drowning and Floating, seem to have been received with similar interest。
“這些書讓我了解了白領的生活,教會我書本上所沒有的職場規則和術語。”22歲的北京林業大學大四學生張珊珊說。
"These books show me the life of white collars, and they teach me career rules and jargon that are not offered in class," said Zhang Shanshan, a 22-year-old senior at Beijing Forestry University。
張珊珊還說,書中所描寫的競爭,詼諧幽默的語言和辦公室八卦深深吸引了她。“我迫不及待地想開始自己的職場生涯,”她說。
Zhang says the competition, humor and office gossip in the book intrigued her. "I can't wait to embark on my own career," she said。
對于職場類小說的暢銷,智聯招聘網的高級職場顧問陳寧并不感到意外。
The popularity of office novels does not surprise Chen Ning, a senior career consultant at Zhaopin.com。
“描寫辦公室斗爭的小說滿足了普通辦公室一族的心理需求,”陳寧說,“主人公面臨巨大的壓力,激烈的競爭以及不可預知的未來。這很符合眾多讀者的日常生活情景。”
"Novels about office fights and struggles satisfy the psychological demands of an ordinary office worker," Chen said. "The leading characters face great pressure, fierce competition and an uncertain future. This is a real scenario in many readers' daily life."
《杜拉拉升職記》的作者李可強調了這本書的重要性。“我要為辦公室一族提供一個真實且實用的常識、知識和經驗。”李可去年接受《錢江晚報》采訪時表示。
Li Ke, the author of Du Lala's Promotion, has been stressing the significance of her fiction. "I want to provide real and useful common sense, knowledge and experience to office workers," Li told the Qianjiang Evening News last year。
