Gu Qingcheng still doesn’t quite understand the routines of online literature.
She did not upload it according to the format of 3,000 words per chapter, but released 30,000 words all at once.
However, it was a blessing in disguise.
After all, historical texts tend to be slow to develop, and there are too many plots that need to be laid out.
Gu Qingcheng writes a more traditional historical novel. It doesn't have the excitement of online novels, nor does it deliberately pursue the golden three chapters.
She is like a storyteller, telling all the interesting stories of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, which were either absurd, extravagant, crazy or romantic.
The writing is beautiful, the wording is exquisite, and allusions and historical materials are easily cited.
She also wrote about the details of clothing, jewelry, food, furniture, etc. very well.
This is a text that can be repeatedly examined by historians and archaeologists.
Some readers may not be able to stand this kind of novel that is almost "popular science", but there are also history or literature lovers who are crazy about it.
Especially in the section of discussing history over wine, a high-rise building was directly built by professionals.
They had various discussions about the costumes, customs, etiquette, etc. described in Gu Qingcheng's novels.
They quoted from classics and expressed their own opinions.
Some people even showed some of the passages to their tutors.
Because some of Gu Qingcheng's descriptions are consistent with existing historical materials, while some are not.
Some descriptions of etiquette and customs even contradict certain miscellaneous notes and unofficial histories that are regarded as historical materials.
Professionals began to come on stage and tried to refute each point one by one.
However, Gu Qingcheng also marked a series of references at the end of the article -
History lovers and history researchers: What the hell is this?
They have never heard of many of the book titles!
Some of the ones that I have a vague impression of are said to be unique or undiscovered copies that have long been lost!
Where did this history expert come from?
Some people suspected that Gu Qingcheng was forging things and deliberately making up some unheard-of "ancient books".
However, more people, especially insiders, think this should be true.
Experts know the ins and outs.
For those who truly study the history of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, they can still feel the truth or falsity of "historical materials".
Their intuition told them that this ID was the author of "A Single Glance Can Conquer the City" and what he wrote should be true.
With controversy and discussion, the article became popular.
The backends of several of Gu Qingcheng’s websites received some private messages.
There are website editors, publishing house editors, and some booksellers or cultural companies.
They all wanted to get Gu Qingcheng's contact information so that they could have deeper cooperation.
Gu Qingcheng read all the private messages and looked up their identities and related information online.
Then, she selected three and added Penguin and email according to the contact information they left.
Just after adding it, a message was sent.
Some wanted to see the outline or the manuscript, some wanted to sign a contract, and some asked for information about Gu Qingcheng...
Gu Qingcheng answered them one by one.
After working for more than an hour, Gu Qingcheng finally reached a publishing agreement with a very formal publishing house.
The royalty is fifteen yuan per thousand words, a reasonable price.
But for a new author, it is also a good start.
What Gu Qingcheng wants is not money, but fame.
With the support of a formal publishing house, she can apply to join the association.
The Writers Association is not an official organization, but it also represents a kind of identity.
…
Two hours of surfing the Internet passed quickly.
Gu Qingcheng turned off the phone and stretched her shoulders and neck.
Li Tingfang, her roommate who was sitting next to her, had also finished her homework. She smiled and said to Gu Qingcheng, "Qingcheng, let's go to the fourth cafeteria. I heard the egg fried rice here is especially delicious!"
"good!"
Gu Qingcheng is quick to follow advice.
The two girls stood up, put on their backpacks, and left the electronic reading room together.
Zou Kai and the fat man hurried to catch up.
"Kaizi, why are you in a daze all the time?"
The fat man complained as he walked, "What a great opportunity! You could just sit next to Gu Qingcheng!"
Instead of hiding aside and peeping like a pervert.
Zou Kai blushed. He didn't have the courage to tell his roommate that he really wanted to sit next to Gu Qingcheng, but for some reason, when he got close to her, he suddenly felt a little timid.
His steps were not controlled by his brain at all, and he rushed to the other row in a flash.
When he reacted and looked over, he found that Gu Qingcheng was sitting upright, staring at the computer screen intently.
Her serious profile is so beautiful!
Gu Qingcheng's position was right next to the window.
The sunlight poured in through the glass, and Gu Qingcheng was completely wrapped in a bright curtain of light.
Zou Kai sat diagonally behind her and could see Gu Qingcheng's perfect profile: a high nose bridge, petal-like lips, a beautiful jawline, and a swan-like neck.
The light was so amazing that even the tiny hairs on Gu Qingcheng's face were clearly visible.
"It turns out she's not wearing any makeup!"
Zou Kai suddenly came up with such an idea.
He lay on the computer desk, holding his chin with one hand, looking at it stupidly.
I didn't feel the passage of time at all.
If he hadn't seen Gu Qingcheng stand up and the fat man next to him pushed him, he would still be in a daze!
"...Well, I saw that he was busy."
Zou Kai replied sheepishly, and said, "I'll go find her when we get to the cafeteria!"
Oh, and you can treat her to a meal!
