Chapter 589 What do you know about gods and demons?
According to some rules of Douhu, whenever there is a drama starring Yu Xiaoshu, Ji Da will definitely not be absent.
This is an iron rule.
Since "I Am Yu Huanshui", Jijiliangmiba has never missed any of Yu Xiaoshu's works.
Basically, every time Yu Xiaoshu's work is broadcast, she will post the plot.
The key is that on Douhu, Jiji2mi8's drama reviews are often a weather vane. The dramas she is optimistic about are basically very popular, and the dramas she thinks will flop are basically flops.
This is especially true for Yu Xiaoshu.
Jiji2mi.com basically praises Yu Xiaoshu's works, and the most important thing is that Jiji2mi.com's predictions have never been wrong.
This is quite remarkable.
Why do people want to believe in Ji Da?
Just because the chicken is so big, I never miss it.
Ji Da may be late, but he will not be absent.
This is the truest thought of many people.
But this time, Ji Da is already 16 days late.
At present, Ji Da’s update is the same one that was posted when “The Beginning” was first aired, which was about how “The Beginning” will not disappoint everyone.
Under this post, the latest comments are: "Ji Da, please give me a review of the show."
Obviously, this is everyone's recognition of the size of the chicken.
Unfortunately, since the broadcast of "The Beginning", Jijiliangmiba has not spoken a word, and it seems as if he has completely disappeared.
What have you been doing?
Shouldn’t it be???
Today, the sixth episode of "The Beginning" was added, and the discussion about the first six episodes has reached a new height. At the same time, everyone has their own opinions on who the murderer is.
So, who is the murderer? ?
No one knows.
It is precisely because we are not clear about it that we want 鸡鸡两米八 to write a review. Besides, she has watched this web drama beforehand, so can she give us a spoiler? ?
As it turns out, this 2.8-meter-long penis doesn’t even have any reviews.
what is going on???
Many people expressed their incomprehension.
Even today, many people on Douhu started shouting that their dicks are 2.8 meters long.
"Ji Da, without your review, Mr. Yu's play would be incomplete."
"Ha, I want to ask Jida, why are you late again?"
"Hurry up, being late three times will be considered an absence."
…
People on the Internet are indeed shouting.
As for Su Qing, it’s not that she doesn’t want to write a drama review, but Su Qing has been very busy in recent times, busy to the point of bursting with activity.
As we all know, April 1st of every year is a grand event in the literary circle, and it is also known as the excitement in the literary world.
This month, many authors will publish their new books.
This seems to have become a routine.
After all, some want to become a great player, while others want to reach platinum.
And every year there is a theme.
Last year's theme was mystery. Basically, whether in China or other countries, people are quite fond of mystery novels. Last year, the new writer 'Kuangfeng' became famous for his mystery novel "Who Killed Me?"
April is a month when many gods fight each other and also a month when new people emerge in large numbers.
Take last year for example. In April last year, the top names of several Chinese publishing houses published new books. Among them, the mystery master "Ni Dongfeng" attracted the most attention. His new book "Keep Silent" has the potential to win platinum.
Unexpectedly, "Kuangfeng" suddenly appeared and the sales of "Who Killed Me" even surpassed "Ni Dongfeng".
It can be said that this is a shame for "Ni Dongfeng", but fortunately there will be a mystery novel celebrity competition in December this year, and Ni Dongfeng will be ready to avenge its previous shame then.
For many mystery writers, their creations always need to be conceived, and some may even take two or three years to write a book. However, "Ni Dongfeng" is not one of them. He is a well-known quick shooter.
In a year, others may not be able to write a single mystery novel, but Ni Dongfeng can write two, and can even do both mystery and script writing.
What is a great god? ?
This is the great god.
So even though 'Ni Dongfeng' failed to win the platinum title, he was not discouraged at all, because his fastest thing was his hand speed.
MMP.
If it doesn’t work once, try again.
In terms of hand speed, who in the whole circle is faster than me? ?
Not to mention physical writers, even among online writers, 'Ni Dong Feng' is undefeated.
Therefore, Ni Dongfeng chose December to once again compete for the platinum award. Although it cannot be compared with the annual literary competition, it can also be regarded as a grand event in the reasoning circle.
More importantly, Ni Dongfeng feels that this time he has secured victory, because all the mystery masters last year had already published books, but this year it is obvious that these masters are too late.
Then, who can stop me?
So recently Ni Dongfeng is really confident in writing a book.
This will not be discussed here for now.
After all, it's still early.
For Su Qing, she doesn't care about Ni Dongfeng. After all, Ni Dongfeng is not the writer she signed. For her, she only cares about the new work "Journey to the West" by the second best writer in the world.
To be honest, Su Qing really didn't expect at first that Yu Xiaoshu could write such a long novel, and it was a classical Chinese novel in the chapter-by-chapter format.
You know, Su Qing always thought that Yu Xiaoshu was only good at writing short stories.
Watch "Holding Grandson".
Look at "The Way of Heaven".
They are basically just short stories.
It is precisely because of this that the publishing house that Su Qing works for is placing its bets on another author this time.
You should know that in the field of short stories, the publishing house where Su Qing works has improved slightly, but their publishing house has never had an ace in the long story business.
This time, they originally wanted to promote "Weird Uncle" in the genre of mythological novels.
Uncle Strange is a newcomer in the past two years. He is good at writing novels about gods and demons, and his trilogy "The Demonic Way" has been well published and sold well.
This time, the strange uncle is ready to attack the great god.
He wrote the final song of "The Devil's Way".
It can be said that with the popularity and reputation of the first three films, he feels that no one can rival him.
For this reason, the publishing house placed its hopes on the strange uncle, but also conducted some analysis on Su Qing's "Journey to the West".
Half and half.
According to Su Qing's idea, she believes that "Journey to the West" can completely crush "The Untamed", which is a novel that fully represents Chinese culture and may even become China's largest IP in the future.
The reason is very simple.
The Monkey King alone is enough.
Since April 1, when Su Qing got the full manuscript of "Journey to the West", she has been immersed in this novel.
What is "Beginning"?
It doesn't matter at all.
And not only that, the biggest problem with Chinese novels about gods and demons, no matter what kind, has always been that it is difficult to form a series.
Simply put, no one is willing to give in to anyone else.
However, "Journey to the West" seems to have created a mythological system.
Here, there are Buddhas, Taoism, heaven, hell, demons, ghosts, and all kinds of gods.
When he read it for the first time, Su Qing was impressed by Yu Xiaoshu's writing style.
There are countless poems written casually in it.
Chapter 1: The spiritual root breeds the source of the flow, the mind cultivates the great way, and the reason why the stone monkey is called the Monkey King is directly expressed in poetry:
The three yangs intersect to give birth to all living things, and the immortal stone egg contains the essence of the sun and the moon. Borrowing an egg to transform into a monkey completes the great way, and using his name to match the elixir.
Internal observation does not recognize because it has no form, external combination clearly knows that it has form. Everyone in the past dynasties belongs to this category, and they can be called kings and saints and dominate the world.
…
As for the ending, it has some of the style of a storyteller.
Because in the first chapter, it was the master who named the stone monkey.
"Although your body is ugly, you look like a monkey that eats pine cones. I will give you a surname based on your body, meaning that you will be named '猢'. The character 猢 is removed from the animal radical, and it is Gu Yue.
Ancient means old, and Yue means Yin. Old Yin cannot nurture, so it would be better to give you the surname "狲". Without the character "狲", it means "子" (son), "子" (son) and "系" (xi) (infant). This is in line with the basic theory of infants, so I will give you the surname "孙" (sun).
When the Monkey King heard this, he was overjoyed and kowtowed, saying, "Good! Good! Good! Today I know my surname. I hope Master will be merciful! Since I already have a surname, please give me a name so that I can call you by it."
The master said: "There are ten characters in my sect, which are used to name people. You are the tenth generation disciple."
The Monkey King asked: "What about those ten words?"
The master said: "It is broad, great, wise, intelligent, true, such, nature, sea, brilliant, enlightened, round, awakened" ten characters, and it is your turn, so I will record the character "Enlightenment" and give you a Dharma name called "Sun Wala Kong", okay? ?
The Monkey King laughed and said, "Good, good, good. From now on you will be called Sun Wukong!"
It is just like this: "Hong Peng was born without a name, to break the stubborn void one must be enlightened."
After all, I don’t know what kind of spiritual fruits I will cultivate in the future. Let’s wait for the next chapter to find out.
…
This first time ends like this.
It can be said that just by looking at this first chapter, Su Qing also understood why the society was not optimistic.
After all, it's all written in classical Chinese, and many people don't want to read this style of writing.
Think about it, nowadays, people are increasingly pursuing high speed, such as finishing a movie in ten minutes, a TV series in ten minutes, and a book in five minutes.
You can say that.
Basically, many people are almost losing the habit of long-term reading.
Just think about it, who doesn’t watch TV series at double speed now? ?
It used to be 2x speed, but now it is possible to be 3x speed.
In short, it is becoming increasingly difficult for everyone to calm down.
Even many people are no longer willing to read fast food like online literature.
You are now making this in a classical Chinese style.
Retro??
The problem now is not what it was before.
Even if we go back to twenty or thirty years ago, there might have been a market. After all, at that time, people didn't have mobile phones and short videos were not well developed. At that time, people might have been able to calm down and read a book.
But what about now? ?
Now is the era of short videos.
People have been increasingly captivated by short videos.
At this time, you don’t want to write some modern texts, but you can use ancient words instead, this kind of ancient novel in the style of classical Chinese.
Who can calm down and watch it???
Su Qing disagreed with this.
She believes in her readers as much as she believes in her audience.
Some audiences need to be guided by everyone, just like the dramas shot by Yu Xiaoshu. Some dramas, such as "Soldiers Assault" and "In the Name of People", have neither traffic nor melodrama, but why can they be so popular? ?
Before these dramas were aired, people in the industry were pessimistic about them.
In short, there are all kinds of opinions.
These people even think that these two dramas will fail miserably.
What’s the result???
The result was that these two dramas became huge hits.
They told everyone in the industry what they were doing.
The audience has aesthetic taste.
Don't always push your unhappiness onto the audience.
The principle is actually the same.
Although some readers found "Journey to the West" a little obscure and difficult to understand when they read it for the first time, Su Qing believes that such a book will be the biggest surprise this year.
That's right.
The biggest surprise.
No doubt about it.
This time, Su Qing felt that, not to mention April, in the whole year, no book could rival "Journey to the West".
Over and over again.
It can be said that Su Qing has been reading "Journey to the West" all the time.
She was immersed in it and even felt surprised every time she watched it.
It is precisely for this reason that Su Qing wants to tell the publishing house that the first printing of this book must not be less.
However, the company only said that they would consider it, and it would depend on the sales performance on the first day.
Okay.
Anyway, if it really doesn't work in the end, just print more.
I still don't trust the second best in the world.
After all, Tianxia Di Er had never written a long novel before, so the publishing house was only willing to print the first volume, and then print the sequels based on the first volume.
But what about the final song of "Magic Path"? ?
I printed the entire collection in one go.
Of course, Su Qing didn’t think that “Magic City” would not sell out, she just thought that “Journey to the West” might give a surprise.
No.
Not likely.
Today, after Su Qing read "Journey to the West" again, she was sure that this novel would definitely give a big surprise, a surprise to the industry.
Since April 1st, Su Qing has been promoting "Journey to the West" to the best of his ability.
After all, the first batch of publications will be on the market on April 23rd. This time, there are three great gods and one platinum in the fantasy novels, and they are all ready to create brilliance again.
Apart from that, there are people like this weird uncle who are holding back their energy and want to prove themselves.
As for the second in the world? ?
What does a short story writer know about long stories???
The key point is that the promotion of "Journey to the West" also attracts a lot of hatred.
"China's first novel about gods and demons is coming soon, please look forward to it."
"China's first novel about gods and demons, Journey to the West, is about to be released."
…
These two slogans do incite hatred.
Why is it the first one? ?
Why is it the God and Demon system? ?
yes.
In Yuanxing, it can be said that China does not have its own system of mythological novels, but there are also many myths and legends in Yuanxing. If you say this, where do you put other people? ?
Everyone wants to be the first.
However, even Wang Xing, who has come out of retirement to write a novel about gods and demons again, does not dare to say that this is the first novel about gods and demons.
You dare to say that you are the second best in the world? ?
Who are you? ?
A short story writer.
What do you know about gods and demons, second only to the world?
…
