Chapter 24 Unexpected Big Boss Book Fans
No matter how chaotic the interview ended, as the video of Kane answering reporters' questions from various angles was uploaded to the Star Network, the number of hits almost instantly rose.
So at the same time, countless Star Network netizens heard Kane's loud and clear answer in the video, and his dazzling golden hair was even more dazzling!
Those who didn't know would have thought that "Contract Marriage" had already been filmed into a live-action TV series.
[Okay, Kane, you kid, I thought you were a scumbag love brain, but you secretly had pure love behind our backs, right! ? ]
[Although I have begun to suspect that Xingqiong is deliberately riding on the popularity of "Contract Marriage" for marketing, I admit that you succeeded! After all, these two people really look alike, my god!!】
【Laughing to death, so "Contract Marriage" is really a realistic novel? Cain, why don't you just accept it? If it doesn't work, can you buy the copyright and make a movie yourself? ?】
As for these hot discussions on the Star Network, which are either teasing or playing with memes, Cain, who finally got away from the frenetic interview scene and returned to the company, held the light computer in his hand to catch up with the latest updates, the atmosphere in the office can be said to be quite weird...
Even the secretary who came to deliver water carefully raised his head to take a look at his boss Cain who seemed to be doubting his life at the desk. For a moment, he didn't know what to feel.
It's definitely not sympathy.
I even wanted to laugh.
As a direct secretary, at least she can be sure that her CEO is clean in his private life.
Even though there are countless handsome men and beautiful women under Star Sky, the orthodox family education that Kane received since childhood has also made Kane never have any gossip in this regard. He simply admires and respects them.
Although thinking about it this way, it is simply weird and more like the domineering CEO Caesar in "Contract Marriage"...!
When she thought about a bunch of netizens on Star Network calling on their own BOSS Kane to buy the copyright and personally shoot a live-action version, the secretary couldn't help but laugh.
"Well, President Kane, maybe we can look at this problem from a different angle."
Finally, another young person in charge of the publicity department pushed up his glasses and bravely broke the silence.
"At least like some comments questioning our deliberate marketing, after this incident, our official account directly gained millions of followers, and it is still growing rapidly. It can be called the marketing case of the year."
"And this incident has no negative impact on your personal image..."
The young person in charge carefully analyzed the series of domino effects after the "interview incident", and his expression was a little subtle.
To be precise, this wave of events not only did not have any real negative impact, but strangely gave Kane a wave of fans, although Kane personally may not want it.
At this moment, Kane's personal blog is still flooded with countless fans of the book "Agreed Marriage" who come to visit and check in.
Some fans who took a look and exclaimed "Wow, it really looks like it!" said with satisfaction that they would stay here in the days to wait for updates.
Some even advised Kane to post more personal updates or private mansions in the future, so that everyone can see the daily life of a rich and domineering president, just as a real-life extra of the novel.
It seems that Kane's blog is completely regarded as a real-life RPG location to check in and watch.
"...How about I dye my hair?"
Kane covered his head and suddenly wanted to dye his blond hair black. The blond hair in the video looked so weird and silly. He
was just like a love-brained person!
"Well, you'd better not do this, because it will definitely trigger a new round of hot searches. Although things have come to this, there is still one last solution."
The person in charge quickly stopped Kane's idea and analyzed it.
"What?"
"If you take the initiative to make fun of yourself, it will definitely make netizens like you. After all, the image of Caesar as a domineering boss in the book "Contract Marriage" is actually quite popular..."
If this is really done, even the rival company will probably suspect that Xingqiong
's move was a deliberate god-level operation. However, the person in charge, who was a professional in the media, became more and more excited as he spoke, and soon shut up under Kane's death gaze.
The worker knew intuition that it might be dangerous to continue talking.
"..."
Kane, who covered his head again, felt that the light in front of him and the novel in his mind made him love and hate at this moment.
Who on earth is this author! ? ? [崩潰.jpg]
However, Yu Mian had not had time to pay attention to Cain's rumor-busting rebuttal at this moment. Instead, he was being madly beaten up by the editor Shakess.
Because of Caesar's "not short of money" line in this update, not only did it become popular in the novel circle overnight, but it also unexpectedly triggered a new controversial topic!
In fact, before this, the popularity of "Agreement Marriage" did attract a lot of fans' love and support, but it inevitably triggered a lot of corresponding disputes and discussions.
[Although the plot of this book is indeed very interesting, I feel that the so-called agreement marriage is completely contrary to the legal principles. Will the Federation Interstellar Law really recognize such an agreement? 】
【The key is that once such a book appears, many readers begin to fantasize about meeting a Caesar themselves! This will be a complete fantasy romanticism! 】
【Yes, linking love with money is a very dangerous tendency. 】
There are even some very fierce criticisms:
【This novel is a completely meaningless daydream. If it becomes popular, it will only cause endless troubles. The world should ban such books directly! 】
【Seeing the tweets next to me, I went to read it specially. As a result, I felt that this was a very vulgar love story, without any nutrition! After all
, the birth of "Agreement Marriage" was indeed deliberately designed by Yu Mian at the time in order to complete the task of collecting popularity points.
To a certain extent, this is a completely commercial work.
As long as you calm down and think about it after reading the above, there will definitely be many people who find that many plots in this book are indeed extremely dramatic and coincidental.
It’s just that such criticism seems a bit too sharp.
After noticing it, the key editor Shakes was more sensitive to find that this was like a deliberate public opinion crisis war against "Agreement Marriage".
Especially the extremists among them kept provoking fights in the comment area, trying to stir up conflicts among the readers. But
out of concern that the new author Yu Mian would be affected by these criticisms, and if he was scolded so much that he couldn't even write updates, then it would be really over.
So Shax had been holding back and didn't dare to say anything, wanting to wait until Yu Mian's update was released tonight before reminding him tactfully.
But I didn't expect that the latest update of today's chapter would be released in advance, and Caesar's classic line would appear, which was like a direct turn in the direction of this debate!
It directly derived a new topic:
#Is the unexpectedly popular "Agreed Marriage" essentially a work that explores money, love, and life? #
"Shax! Your author's book was actually reviewed by a researcher from the Federal Institute of Literature!"
And the exclamation of a colleague in the Universal Editorial Office instantly made everyone's eyes turn to Shax, and the meaning in their eyes was even more complex and varied.
The popularity of "Contract Marriage" undoubtedly made Shax's position as an editor a little "hot" in the editorial department.
Shax, who just graduated, has not even been converted to a regular employee, but with a copy of "Contract Marriage" in hand, it is obvious that this year's year-end performance report will directly beat a wave of veteran senior editors.
For a newcomer, such workplace relationships are indeed a bit complicated.
And this exclamation at this time made Shax's heart inexplicably cold.
Because no matter how much the netizens discuss, as long as Yu Mian, the author, can keep a stable mentality, it will basically not have any impact.
However, it is a different story for researchers at the Federal Institute of Literature.
They specialize in literary research.
The most orthodox and most recognized literary style in the Star Age has nothing to do with the unorthodox work "The Marriage Agreement"! If
a book review comes out now, the possibility of being scolded is definitely much greater than the possibility of being praised. If "The Marriage Agreement" is criticized, then it will be a big problem!
Shakes looked at the link on the optical computer with a tangled expression, and for a moment he even hesitated to open it.
But no matter what, as an editor, he must read it all first, and then immediately contact his own author to come up with a response.
But after opening it fearlessly, Shakes, who was originally extremely nervous, had his eyes slightly widened.
Yu Mian finally waited until no one was in the study and logged into the computer again, and instantly received 99+ messages from the editor Crunchy Shark. The
first ones were almost all about reporting public opinion, discussing whether to revise the article urgently, or comforting Yu Mian not to search for his pen name on the Internet during this period!
"This editor is really responsible."
Yu Mian laughed, feeling that he was being raised as an only child.
This was really rare in the past. After all, an editor had hundreds or thousands of authors under him, and it was almost impossible for him to take care of all of them so carefully.
But the latest message seemed strange.
[Crispy Shark: Oh my god, we are really popular! Researchers from the Federal Institute of Literature actually published an article to analyze "The Negotiated Marriage"! ]
Yu Mian also never expected that such a highly commercial novel would receive analysis from the orthodox interstellar academy?
[Fish: Huh? Did I get scolded? QwQ]
Almost subconsciously, Yu Mian guessed that this was probably a criticism.
Is this interstellar researcher going to criticize online literary works? He just wants to earn some popularity to survive.
[Crispy Shark: No, no, no, it's not a criticism! Although there are indeed many voices criticizing us on various platforms after the explosion! ]
[Crispy Shark: But the latest article that just came out is very different! 】
But what I didn’t expect was that the next second, Yu Mian received an unexpected reply from Shax.
It seems that the remarks of this researcher are really interesting?
Following the link sent by Shax, Yu Mian curiously opened the article.
And this reading really shocked Yu Mian!
[Review of the novel "Agreement Marriage" by Interstellar Traveler]
[First of all, I must admit that I did initially only know about the work "Agreement Marriage" from my students and wanted to take a look out of curiosity.
But I didn’t expect that I would finish reading it all in one night, and found that everyone on the Star Network was also hotly discussing the plot, so I couldn’t help but write this book review.
In fact, we have indeed heard many criticisms of the work "Agreement Marriage" from various voices in various places.
Today, I have no intention of denying the existence of these shortcomings in the book, but what I want to say is that the book "Contract" seems to have brought us a new perspective on money, love and life.
Do we need to resist accepting a wealthy protagonist like Caesar? Or even regard him as a scourge?
Does the great love that is unwavering and can face all crises advocated in contemporary literary works have to be tested in a stereotyped way with the plot of poverty and life and death?
In this book, the protagonist Gu Bai's affection for his mother transcends the need for money, and he pays for the bottomless high medical expenses at all costs. After reaching a certain status and class, Caesar's grandfather is willing to live in seclusion and be self-sufficient. Or the villains’ pursuit of money as the first priority…
In fact, these various characters and choices created by the author are very vivid and worth our consideration.
In the latest update, Caesar, the protagonist, can even actively reflect on the impact of status and origin on a person’s growth. I think this is precisely why Caesar, an imperfect character with many shortcomings, can still be loved by so many StarCraft fans.
The universe is so big that we can’t imagine whether young people like “Gu Bai” created by the author really exist. If so, how many young people are there who are trapped in the backward environment of the innate planet and cannot display their talents?
These issues are essentially things we can explore, pay attention to and help. Perhaps this has more meaning than criticizing whether the book is serious and orthodox enough.
Of course, despite saying so much, this is actually a book review to urge the author to update more. If the author can update faster, it will be perfect. ^_^】
Although the account ID "Interstellar Traveler" is not a real name, Xingbo has confirmed that he is indeed a researcher at the Federal Institute of Literature. This book review can be said to have really shocked Yu Mian.
After all, even the author Yu Mian has to admit that the book "Agreement Marriage" was written in a hurry at the beginning.
It can be said that it is a real rush.
Yu Mian, who has read countless wife-chasing crematoriums in his life, has already memorized the rhythm and context of the whole story, and it can even be said that it is almost the same.
In a sense, the critical voices on the Star Network are also reasonable.
But Yu Mian did not expect to get such a reader analysis.
This "interstellar traveler"'s book review, without denying the problems in the article, analyzes and interprets characters such as Caesar with an extremely tolerant and gentle attitude, even a "sympathetic understanding". Even from
the plot in Caesar's latest chapter, we can see the hidden immature class reflection.
Moreover, the character identity setting of Gu Bai is actually combined with the social problems in the universe. It can be said that it directly uses the traffic of "Contract Marriage" and cleverly turns people's attention to the issue of social security in the interstellar space.
It is extremely unexpected, but if you really think about it this way, the explosion of the book "Contract Marriage" seems to have a special practical significance.
After all, the love of so many interstellar readers for Gu Bai can be transformed into a more beautiful and universal force, so that the regrets in the story disappear in reality!
It is no exaggeration to say that the appearance of this book review by Interstellar Traveler has directly led the discussion on "The Agreement Marriage" on the Star Network into a new direction.
Many readers even took the initiative to connect it to the growth of the behavior of respecting the elderly and loving the young in the Central Star during this period.
For example, suddenly there are more people who insist on squatting in major gardens to help the elderly build lawns, or seeing the homeless people on the roadside and helping them enthusiastically...
Can you say that these behaviors after reading this novel are bad?
Of course, it is great, it is a complete embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty.
So I can only say that the novel "Contract Marriage" is indeed very magical from the title to the content, but the plot and character setting are indeed quite politically and morally correct.
Moreover, the series of face-slapping plots under the kind character of the protagonist Gu Bai in the novel can be regarded as telling people subtly:
as long as you are kind and firm, and do more good things, you will definitely have a better life!
After such a "magic analysis", even the group of people who didn't like the popularity of "Contract Marriage" before, instantly couldn't say anything at length.
After all, this book review by "Star Traveler" can be said to have "settled" this controversy from another perspective.
It makes people wonder if the other party has seen the potential public opinion crisis, so he deliberately wrote such a book review!
However, Yu Mian looked at the book review on the computer and couldn't help but have some thoughts.
As an outsider, I did write the book in order to complete the mission and survive.
But when you find that your work will indeed affect this star and trigger all kinds of thinking and discussion, it seems that you are touched by something again.
Maybe you should think carefully about the topic of your second book.
[Are you going to start thinking about the second book? ? Isn't the first one not finished yet! And the most exciting part hasn't arrived yet! ]
The small system watched Yu Mian reorganize the information and outline, and couldn't help asking questions.
"Yes, but the new book must be conceived and determined in advance."
The book "Contract Marriage" has reached a climax as Caesar discovered the truth about the million.
There will definitely be several sensational plots in the future.
Especially the most popular part of chasing the wife!
Once these plots are written, the popularity will definitely not be low!
But Yu Mian plans to take advantage of the time when this story is about to officially move towards the climax to seriously think about the topic of the second book.
And this time Yu Mian is really a little curious about what kind of person this researcher is in real life.
Not only did a book review solve a lot of troubles for me, but even the final urging for updates seemed quite cute.
However, just as Yu Mian was pondering the subject of his new book while reading this book review, another unexpected group of people appeared on the Star Network to support the work "Contract Marriage".
[Holse V: Huh? Who said that "Contract Marriage" is not good and should be banned? I won't do that! I'm following it with my students! Old antiques should actively learn from young people, so that they can have a younger mentality, instead of thinking about banning everything as soon as it is mentioned!]
Professor Holse is nearly sixty years old and is a famous expert in the field of music.
In addition to his somewhat old-fashioned personality and his love of surfing like young people, at first glance, he seems to have nothing to do with "Contract Marriage"...
Why would he speak for "Contract Marriage"! ?
The two are completely unrelated!
Especially the group of people who had been lurking in the comment area to stir up trouble and try to influence public opinion, they could not understand how so many bigwigs could help speak for such a new book that just became popular, "Contract Marriage"!
But in fact, it is not surprising at all.
You know, as soon as the book "Contract Marriage" came out, it directly made the ancient blue star musical instruments such as the harpsichord popular again.
For a long time, in the interstellar era that advocated military technology, ancient musical instruments and other artistic majors were regarded as unpopular and unique on the ancient blue star.
Many majors could not even recruit a single student for years, and they were on the verge of closing.
As a result, the popularity of "Engagement Contract" instantly boosted the attention of the piano. Not only did the number of people applying for interest classes for ancient instruments increase unexpectedly, but the number of people who consulted the music department for registration also increased sharply this year.
So when the music department leaders saw that someone was talking about banning "Engagement Contract", they couldn't sit still. If
they want to ban "Engagement Contract" now, it would be like cutting off the attention they have attracted.
This is intolerable!
With the speech of Holes, the music department's leader, the Star Network, which was already very lively because of the book review of "Star Traveler", became even more excited.
[Wow, the book written by the great man I like is actually read by the professor! ? Is this true? ! ]
[It's true, there are only a few people in our harpsichord department this year, and almost everyone is passing around "The Proposed Marriage", okay! This book has simply maxed out our fashion sense, hahaha, the descriptions of music in the book are exaggerated and sour! ]
[Can you believe how Professor Holes knew about "The Proposed Marriage"? This year happened to be the enrollment season, and when someone was asked why he applied during the interview, he actually said that he came because of reading the novel, hahaha! 】
Under heated discussions, #novels that professors are also following# instantly became a hot search term and was directly listed on the Star Network hot search list.
Even shortly after Holes spoke up, another friend of Professor Holes also spoke up, and this time he @ed the author Yu Mian.
[Pengge V: That guy is not only following the article, he comes to my place every day to show off that this year's enrollment is full. @A bowl of fish soup noodles, I would like to contact the author, can the next article be about our violin? ? After all, the violin is also a very elegant ancient musical instrument with a long history! [Photo X9]】
It turned out that the professors of the Central Star Federation's First Music Academy, the prototype of the music school where the protagonist Gu Bai in the book is, have been paying attention to this sudden rise in the trend of classical musical instruments in the past few days.
I don't know what happened, but young people in the interstellar world suddenly stopped watching mecha battles and started to pay attention to musical instrument art.
After a careful investigation, I found that it was related to a popular novel that was popular among young people in the interstellar world!
So the professors who were a little more active or younger in their thinking took the lead and introduced other classical instruments that were a little lonely in the interstellar era online.
They didn't mind all kinds of curious young people asking questions and consulting online, and they interacted enthusiastically.
All of a sudden, the entire interstellar network was attracted by this extremely interesting online recruitment promotion.
After all, who would have thought that there would be a big boss in the relevant industry who would directly call on the author to write a new novel online! ?
Wouldn't it be fun to see a series of instrumental protagonists?
This is too much fun!
Urge for more, hurry up!
At this moment, all the readers and fans of the entire Star Network are looking forward to how the author Yu Mian will respond to the interactive messages from the professors who took the initiative to come to the door!
