Chapter 100: The Evil Stepmother in the Republic of China (Thirty-Five)
After Han Qiuyu left the Li family, he seemed to have luck and his life went very smoothly.
On the train heading north to Beijing, she met a university professor in Beijing.
Perhaps it was the aura of the omnipotent heroine, or perhaps it was her elegant demeanor despite her bound feet that attracted the professor.
The two had a very pleasant conversation, and the professor was deeply attracted by Han Qiuyu, a woman with a contradictory temperament but extremely charming.
[Ding! The number one affectionate male partner is online! ]
When Han Qiuyu saw the young, handsome and knowledgeable professor, he seemed to be able to hear the reminder of fate.
And her life did not live up to her identity as the "female protagonist".
She got the script of the Mary Sue heroine.
Even if you go to the dining car of the train to eat, you can meet elites returning home and rich kids who have run away from home...
There were men around her.
An elegant way of saying it is "flower protector".
In modern Internet lingo, it is called a loyal dog.
With the protection of these two or three people, Han Qiuyu, a young single woman with all her assets, arrived in the capital smoothly and safely in this chaotic Republic of China.
After arriving in the capital, trivial matters such as renting a house and hiring servants went very smoothly.
In life, Han Qiuyu doesn't have to do everything by herself like Gu Qingcheng. She can devote all her time and energy to "creation".
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" began the serialization in this time and space.
Like all the "predecessors" who plagiarized literature in the Republic of China, Han Qiuyu became an overnight sensation thanks to this book.
At first, readers have no idea that she is actually a young woman.
I also thought that Mr. "Wutong Yeyu" was a knowledgeable and open-minded man.
Some naive readers even speculated that Wutong Yeyu was most likely a peerless hero who had retired to seclusion.
Then, by chance, Han Qiuyu's vest fell off.
The title of a beautiful and talented writer of the new era has firmly been given to her.
This identity, which surprised thousands of readers, brought Han Qiuyu more attention and fame.
She also received some criticism.
There's no way, Han Qiuyu is very high-profile and her remarks are quite avant-garde.
She advocates being an independent woman and despises those "new women" who are so-called foreign students but in fact only want to be men's appendages.
She and her novels are always at the forefront of public opinion.
As The Legend of the Condor Heroes went beyond the capital and spread across the country, the fame of Night Rain at the Wutong Tree also spread throughout the world.
With her talent and fame, more and more male supporting actors, fanboys and bootlickers gathered around her.
The cold autumn rain is like a charming and passionate butterfly, flying among those people.
Her remarks on independent women had already disgusted some conservative intellectuals or a certain class of women.
And her rich emotional life made those people even more disgusted.
Someone started attacking.
What Han Qiuyu feels most guilty about is probably being a porter of novels.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is such a classic. Its world view, its structure, its plot, and its character portrayal are all very good.
But, Han Qiuyu is not a universal library.
Most of her knowledge about The Legend of the Condor Heroes came from later film and television dramas.
Ahem, there’s nothing we can do about it. Golden Giant’s popular works have been remade too frequently.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was the worst hit.
Almost every few years, a new version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes is released.
The plot and other things have long been known to generations of audiences.
It was through watching these different versions of the TV series that Han Qiuyu became familiar with many of the plots and classic clips of The Legend of the Condor Heroes.
She set up the outline according to her memory and filled in the plot based on those classic scenes.
As for the specific descriptions and character dialogues, it depends on Han Qiuyu himself.
Her biggest cheat code is to travel through books, but it does not come with an internet search or a portable library.
She simply can't replicate "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" one-to-one.
By piecing together the pieces, Han Qiuyu could only restore 60% to 70% of this classic work.
...This leaves a loophole——
The grand background of the novel incorporates many historical elements, and the overall layout of the novel reveals the word "big".
Han Qiuyu, on the other hand, is a woman who possesses the delicacy and gentleness that are unique to female writers.
This is a bit inconsistent.
Just like a hero who came from the grassroots, he doesn't eat big chunks of meat or drink big gulps of wine, but pays attention to some details in terms of tea drinking and clothing.
Even Bao Xiruo was involved in palace fighting in the Jin Dynasty palace.
Of course, the main line of the whole work is complete and clear, which is the growth history of the hero Guo Jing.
There are a lot of shortcomings, but the plot is good.
The flaws do not outweigh the merits!
But it gave those who wanted to attack Han Qiuyu "evidence".
"Plagiarism! It must be plagiarism!"
"Yes, the novel's theme framework and detailed description seem to be written by two people."
"Or there was a gunman."
"That shouldn't be the case. Wutong Yeyu is a newcomer. If that ghostwriter can write such a novel, why doesn't he write it himself?"
"Tsk! You don't know this. Wutong Yeyu is a young and beautiful woman. Professor Feng from Beijing University, the young master of the governor's family, and even a big boss of the Magic City Cao Gang are all her lovers."
"No way, Wutong Yeyu actually relies on her beauty—"
These scandals tainted with sex have always attracted the most attention of the general public.
The comments in the literary world and among the public were also gradually moving in a less harmonious direction.
Han Qiuyu was caught in a storm of public opinion.
Han Qiuyu: ...As expected, scholars look down on each other. These people are just jealous of her fame and fortune! However, the storm must be calmed down.
If Han Qiuyu doesn't find a way to prove himself, he will most likely be branded as a "plagiarist" or a "hired ghost".
So her editor suggested, "Ms. Han, why don't you write another work and let the facts speak for themselves."
In fact, even Han Qiuyu's editor was also skeptical: Did Ms. Han really have a ghostwriter? He suggested that Han Qiuyu write another book as a test.
"……good!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The Legend of the Condor Heroes is not just a single book, but a trilogy.
Although Han Qiuyu was a plagiarist, she was still very angry when she was accused of "plagiarism".
How can the work of writers be called plagiarism?
At most, she moved Jin Juxia's works from decades later to this fictional Republic of China.
This is a fictional family derived from a novel, and there is no Golden Giant Hero at all.
If she doesn't write Jin Juxia's works, it will actually be a loss for the majority of readers.
Humph, they said I plagiarized and that I hired a ghostwriter.
Okay, you guys can write The Return of the Condor Heroes and The Heaven Sword and the Heaven Sword.
Han Qiuyu cursed secretly in his heart.
She wanted to write The Return of the Condor Heroes to "prove" herself.
However, The Legend of the Condor Heroes has not yet been fully serialized in the newspaper.
With a huge pit dug, Han Qiuyu couldn't open two holes at once with her ability.
"They all traveled back to the Republic of China. Some of the protagonists were able to obtain the golden finger that allowed them to recite the entire text."
“Writing a novel or something is as easy as copying and pasting.”
"Why do I have to rely on myself when it comes to me? There's not even a system?"
Han Qiuyu felt a headache when he thought about the effort he had to put into reproducing the masterpiece The Return of the Condor Heroes.
"How about not writing The Condor Heroes first, but writing a short or medium-length novel?"
"I am also an online writer after all. I have been reading online articles for more than ten years and writing online articles for several years. My 'creative' ability is not bad."
"Novels from the Republic of China are either romantic or satirical."
Han Qiuyu secretly complained in his heart while slowly organizing his thoughts.
Just at this time, she saw the report about Ms. Gu in the newspaper.
"Gu Sanniang? The evil stepmother in the original plot?"
"It shouldn't be her. She is indeed a bad person, but also a little stupid."
"To create a thousand-year-old feast and be admired by countless foreigners is not something that a native of the Republic of China who only has conspiracies and calculations can do."
"...Oh, who cares if she is or not! It has nothing to do with me anyway."
However, Ms. Gu's report reminded Han Qiuyu of the original owner's life in the Li family.
Ding! A light bulb suddenly lit up in Han Qiuyu's head.
What has she thought of for her new work?
It's a satire on reality! And in the Republic of China, what should be criticized the most is the cannibalistic ethics and feudal remnants.
Han Qiuyu's inspiration surged like a spring, and she quickly picked up the pen.
Swish, swish, swish! She finished the short story of less than 10,000 words in one go.
"Deep Courtyard", the name itself exudes a taste of decadent feudal dregs.
In the book, Han Qiuyu portrays several characters——
The conservative, overbearing and dictatorial master is a typical feudal patriarch; the young and beautiful, but greedy and vicious second wife, ahem, the prototype is based on the original owner Gu Sanniang;
A young master who was spoiled since childhood and studied abroad with talent but no moral integrity; a poor concubine who was born in a humble family and was oppressed. This is a fictional character and the heroine of this article;
The housekeeper who relied on his power to bully others, the concubine who was originally a performer and was a victim but abused others, and the old lady who looked kind but was vicious at heart...
Han Qiuyu added almost all the melodramatic plots in the Republic of China literature and dramas that he had read in later generations to this large feudal family.
Almost all of them are villains, and their stories are tragic.
But it also reveals the sadness of the times and the cruelty of human nature.
It can be said that Han Qiuyu's "talent" is fully reflected in this novel.
The whole novel is filled with a thick, suffocating feeling of depression.
There is not a single slogan in the whole article, but it makes people feel that they must break the shackles and change the world.
"What a wonderful 'Deep Courtyard', what a wonderful 'Night Rain on the Wutong Tree'! The pen is as sharp as a knife."
"It's so well written. Wow, I cried when the second wife's voice became hoarse!"
"…It was exactly the same family experience I had, but I didn't have the courage of the heroine, and I couldn't break out of that cage!"
"Mr. Wutong Yeyu is a real talent. How could someone accuse her of plagiarism? How could she plagiarize when she can write such a good novel?"
"I heard that this novel has a prototype, and it is based on the personal experience of Mr. Wutong Yeyu..."
"No way, it's actually true?"
Readers' comments are always like wild horses running wild, branching out from the topic and expressing themselves freely!
