Chapter 457 Time Node
This post, which suspected that the real identity of the new author [Yi Lu Xiang Bei] was [Nan Ge Zi], quickly became popular.
The reason is very simple. Whether it is "All the Way North" or "Nan Gezi", they are already very popular authors.
[Nan Gezi] There is no need to say much. Although "he" disappeared after finishing "Life is Long and Hateful, Rivers Flow East", the legend about him is still circulating in the entire online literature world. The joke of "Life is Long and Hateful, Rivers Flow East" as "the most exciting article on Qidian" is still deceiving batches of new readers.
Who made some malicious book pushers like to promote this book in various ways? They probably pushed the book with the idea that I can't be the only one who gets cheated...
But then again, readers who are new to online literature actually have a relatively strong tolerance. As long as the sadistic literature is written deeply and shockingly enough, they will still regard it as a masterpiece.
Although Nan Gezi's "refreshing novel" that depressed countless readers was a scam, it was actually a top choice in terms of writing style, layout, and character portrayal, and it still attracted a lot of fans.
If [Nan Gezi] is now in a state of "although I am no longer in the world, my legend is still circulating in the world", then the "newbie author" [Yi Lu Xiang Bei] is in a very popular state. There is no way around it, because who made "his" "Initial D" so popular?
In such a situation, authors in the circle and some senior readers are of course very curious about "his" identity.
So when this post appeared, everyone seemed to have pierced a layer of window paper and expressed their opinions one after another——
"No wonder I always had a strange sense of déjà vu when I read Initial D. It turns out that this book was written by that old thief Nan Ge!"
"Lao Bai, who finished reading the latest update of the eight-year-old book in one sitting, said that the original poster's speculation is well-founded and that this book must have been written by that idiot Nan Gezi. He may be a idiot, but he's truly talented!"
"If this book is indeed the new work of [Nan Gezi], then I have to say that this guy is well-deserved to be the Supreme God of Qidian. He can become so popular just by opening a new pseudonym. His real strength is incredible..."
"Compared to those well-known authors who just rely on their old stories with every book, Nan Gezi's work is truly eye-opening. Although I was badly let down by him before, the subject matter of this "Initial D" is truly rare. It would be a shame not to follow it!"
"There's an 80% chance that 'Initial D' was written by Nan Gezi. Let me provide some more evidence for the original poster. Just look at the illustrations in the Easter egg chapter he posted. They're clearly the work of Nian Nujiao. They previously collaborated on 'Life is Long and Hateful, Rivers Flow East'."
"One more thing. I learned about this book from the chapter recommendation of [I Love Tomatoes and Potatoes]. Everyone in the industry knows that Tomato really admires [Nan Gezi]. Only [Nan Gezi] has the face to have Tomato recommend his work so enthusiastically!"
…
As the saying goes, the truth becomes clearer the more it is debated. Originally, many forum users came to read this post out of curiosity.
As a result, the higher the number of floors of this post, the more solidified it becomes that [All the Way North] is the secondary account of [Nan Gezi]!
This was actually within Gu Qingge's expectations. She did not deliberately hide this fact or try to change her writing style. She just wrote casually.
Even if those veteran readers prove that "All the Way North" is a pseudonym of "Nan Gezi", it is actually difficult to influence a larger number of new readers.
These new readers don’t know about the heated online literature forums; they just read books simply.
Some old readers, after believing they had exposed Nan Gezi's "conspiracy," even went to the book review section of Initial D to post comments criticizing Nan Gezi for having ill intentions and not using her main account to release a new book...
"I suggest all readers of this book open their eyes and not be fooled by the old thief Nan Ge again. For this unethical author, we readers should unite and strongly boycott him. Let's see if he dares to deceive us again!"
Many veteran readers cried foul, many of them having turned against the novel after "Life is Long and Hateful, Rivers Flow East." The memory of being so depressed by Nan Gezi that it made them suffer stomachaches was truly vivid...
What these veteran readers didn't expect was that their behavior was completely incomprehensible to the simple new readers.
This book is obviously the work of super newcomer [Heading North], why are these haters here to mess with it?
It is true that when you are famous you are prone to gossip. We must never let [All the Way North] be slandered by these "net army"!
As a result, the book review section of "Initial D" became a battlefield, with readers from all walks of life fighting each other, which in turn further increased its popularity.
After the news that "All the Way North" was most likely the secondary account of "Nan Gezi" came out, many of Nan Gezi's true fans have begun to quietly pay attention to the work "Initial D".
These true fans are actually [Nan Gezi] who has abused me thousands of times, but I have already regarded "him" as my first love...
No matter what depressing plot Nan Gezi writes, they can actually accept it, as long as it is not cruel for the sake of cruelty and ruins the article.
Nan Gezi has written so many works since his debut, and he has never failed to write a good story. His plots can all be self-consistent and have a certain degree of rationality. This is enough for true fans.
Now, for some reason, [Nan Gezi] uses a secondary account to release a new book, and they don’t have any objections. In fact, they are a little happy - because they can finally read [Nan Gezi]’s new book!
Even if this book is not written by Nan Gezi, it will be fine as long as its style is similar to that of Nan Gezi!
This "Initial D" can be said to have solved the book shortage problem for many readers!
You know, some readers with slightly higher tastes, after getting used to reading Nan Gezi's online novels, can't stand reading online novels by other authors anyway. The difference in level is really too big.
Gu Qingge just paid a little attention to the small reaction caused by "Initial D" and didn't take it too seriously.
She is already thinking about when to release the single "All the Way North"...
The best time for its release is, of course, when the "female protagonist" Natsuki in "Initial D" finally reveals herself. When she says "Natsuki, uncle is going to sprint", listening to "Double North" is the most exciting!
In this dream collaboration, who will win if she doesn’t win?
