Kobayashi Keiko even had someone spread the word, deliberately creating an image of a "rich second generation starting a business out of interest" who is "stupid and rich."
These actions, according to what Lin Huowang taught her, are about establishing a persona.
Coupled with the subsequent acquisition of "Tomorrow Manga Weekly", a failed manga magazine that was about to go bankrupt, the vigilance of local Japanese manga magazines was greatly reduced.
It also laid the groundwork and created a sense of contrast for the subsequent craze to promote and publicize the "Dragon JUMP" comic magazine after the show became popular.
After listening to Lin Huowang's promotional methods and plans, Kobayashi Keiko was even more impressed by him.
…
The literary and art circles in Beijing also had great admiration for Lin Huowang.
The next day, when the new issue of "People's Literature" was published.
The famous writers and young literary people who had been looking forward to it for a long time immediately bought up all the copies of People's Literature that had just arrived in bookstores and post offices.
Everyone opened the catalog at the same time, found Haizi's "Drawing Sword", and immediately began to read it intently.
"It's great! It's so great. The character of Li Yunlong, the leader of the independent regiment, is so well written."
"It's so fucking satisfying. We killed the Japanese devils, but they still wanted to attack our base..."
"Huh? Why is there nothing at the end? Only this little bit is published? Who will read it?"
"I never thought that a novel about the anti-Japanese war could be written like this. Does this regiment commander Li Yunlong have a prototype?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I study the history of the Party and the military. When I saw this Li Yunlong, I felt that he looked very familiar. His experience was quite similar to that of a general named Wang."
"I remember that too. This general was quite remarkable. But why wasn't it as exciting to read the military history as it was to watch 'Drawing Sword'?"
"As expected of Haizi! He has published a new work, a new type of novel, so good. I guess a large number of anti-Japanese novels will emerge soon."
"That's great! It's very enjoyable to read, and this is a long novel, so it would be better if there were more! Haizi is really amazing, he just created the scar literature genre, and now he is going to create the anti-Japanese sword genre..."
…
Readers who have read "Drawing Sword" have given it mostly positive reviews.
After all, whether it is the subject matter of "Drawing Sword" or the character of the protagonist Li Yunlong, they are both quite likable. There is absolutely no problem in saying that it is suitable for all ages.
The only dissatisfaction everyone has is that the excerpts published in People's Literature are too few and not worth reading at all.
…
In the Writers Association compound, there are Mr. Ba and Mr. Qian, who have always been mature and steady.
After reading "Drawing Sword" published in "People's Literature", they both looked up, looked at each other, and showed expressions of surprise.
"Is this really written by Haizi? Incredible! He is clearly only very young, yet he can handle such a wide range of themes and styles.
The writing style of "Drawing Sword" is sophisticated, and the characterization of characters is very accurate.
It can be seen that Haizi's observation of people is meticulous and incomparable to ordinary people!"
Ba Lao stroked his beard and said with great admiration.
Mr. Qian also laughed and said: "I think the more important thing is this subject matter, which has given us writers a new creative idea.
Even I felt happy and relieved when I saw Li Yunlong fighting the Japanese.
It’s just too short, Mr. Ba, how about… we go to the editorial office of People’s Literature to express our congratulations?”
"Hahaha... we were thinking the same thing. I heard that Lao Guo finished reading all the manuscripts of "Drawing Sword" in one go two days ago.
Come on! Let’s go over and have a look.”
After Ba Lao finished speaking, he couldn't wait to go to the editorial office of People's Literature with Qian Lao.
…
As "People's Literature" was sold nationwide, "Drawing Sword" immediately became popular all over the country.
This time, the popularity is even more popular than the previous "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming", "A Generation" and "Scars", and the coverage is wider.
Because, in this era, one needs a certain level of appreciation to understand the poems and novels mentioned above.
Most of the people who buy Poetry Magazine and People's Literature are literary young people.
"Drawing Sword" is a real popular novel, which tells the anti-Japanese story that all Chinese people love to hear.
There was even a case where the educated youth bought "People's Literature" and read "Drawing Sword" to illiterate villagers in the village, just like ancient storytellers, making the name of Li Yunlong, the leader of the independent regiment, resound throughout China decades in advance.
