Chapter 854: It's Kind of Interesting

One day, Wu Xiaotian sent Bei Bei to kindergarten as usual, and then he drove to work at the TV station. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

On the way, he turned on his phone and listened to the news.

Suddenly, a piece of news caught his attention.

The general idea of the news is that Japan's annual mystery novel contest is about to begin, and this year, Japan announced that their contest will no longer be limited to domestic novelists, but will be held all over the world.

Wu Xiaotian was stunned at the time, he was about to get a good understanding, and found that the car happened to pass through a tunnel, the radio signal was gone, and when the tunnel passed, the signal returned to normal, the news had already been broadcast, and it entered another news broadcast.

Mystery Fiction Contest?

What kind of competition is this?

He knew that in the previous world, Japanese mystery novels were famous and extremely popular all over the world, and he didn't know what would happen to them in this world.

However, Wu Xiaotian is not worried. He quickly drove to the TV station, and then came to the office of the "Do Not Disturb" program team, and after saying hello to his colleagues who had already come to the office, he sat down and turned on the computer and watched the news.

The first thing he wanted to see, of course, was the news of the Japanese mystery novel contest that he had just heard halfway through the radio in the car.

I searched for keywords on the Internet, and soon a lot of related news flashed on the page.

Wu Xiaotian then opened one and read the news from beginning to end, so that he could roughly understand the cause and effect of the incident.

It turns out that in this world, Japanese mystery novels are still as strong as ever, they have a large number of mystery novel writers, and they have also produced many excellent mystery novels, which are very popular all over the world.

Every year, Japan holds a variety of mystery fiction competitions, the most important of which is the "Japan Mystery Novel Grand Prix", which is organized by the Japanese state and sponsored by the Japan Mystery Novel Association.

Although this competition was only held in Japan a few years ago, it still attracted the attention of many mystery novel lovers around the world. In this competition, the copyright of all mystery novels that can win awards is immediately purchased by world-famous directors and film and television production companies, and then made into movies, and also achieved a good box office.

Previously, there was a hard and fast rule that only local Japanese writers could participate. But this year, the organizers of the Grand Prix in Japan suddenly announced that the competition will be held all over the world, and there are no restrictions on nationality and contestants, which means that no matter what country you are from, whether you have written mystery novels before or not, you can participate in this competition.

In addition, in order to ensure the fairness of the competition, the organizers of the contest will invite famous writers from all over the world to be the judges of the competition, and the judges will be completely independent and not restricted by Japan and the organizers, and on the other hand, in order to ensure the quality of the competition, they will also selectively invite famous writers from other countries to participate in the competition.

After reading these, Wu Xiaotian also understood what happened.

Interesting!

Wu Xiaotian thought in his heart, this competition is a bit interesting, why don't he participate in it too?

Now, working at Hujiang TV, there is only one program of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" to produce, and there is nothing else to do, so he is very leisurely. If you want to participate in this competition, you can just write a novel, and you can complete it in your spare time, and if you work hard, you can do it in a few days.

He also took a look at it just now, although Japan now has a large number of mystery novel talents, and there are many excellent mystery novels, but without exception, none of the excellent Japanese works in the last world have appeared in this world.

Therefore, if Wu Xiaotian wants to participate, there will be countless excellent mystery novels in his head casually. However, there are many novels, but they have all been translated into Chinese before, and if this is retranslated into Japanese, it will need help from others.

"Wow, our country's Chai Xin was invited to the Japanese Mystery Novel Grand Prix, and, Chai Xin also publicly replied on Weibo that he is about to participate in this competition. ”

At this time, the people in the office were almost here, because it was not yet time to go to work, so everyone was chatting quietly, and suddenly Brother Yan said loudly.

"What? Chai Xin also participated? Great, he is the most famous mystery novel writer in our country, and he will definitely win the grand prize if he participates!" Brother Yan's words immediately attracted the attention of other people, among whom Ah Jiu was the first to say: "I like Chai Xin's mystery novels the most, and I think they are much better than any Japanese ones." ”

"Well, I also think Chai Xin's novel is very good. ”

"However, Japanese mystery novels are not in vain, they are still very good. ”

"It's okay to be awesome, everyone is playing fair!"

Others in the office joined the discussion, with some expressing support for Chai and others expressing skepticism.

"Chai Xin?"

Wu Xiaotian also heard the discussion in the office, and he also remembered. He had heard the name Chai Xin, and knew that he was very famous in the Chinese mystery novel industry, but although Wu Xiaotian had heard of it, he had never seen it, so he was not very familiar with it.

However, just now Brother Yan said that Chai Xin has been invited by the Japanese Mystery Novel Grand Prix and is going to participate in this competition, it seems that this competition is going to be real.

"Xiaotian, have you been invited? Do you want to participate too?" Wu Xiaotian was thinking about it when he suddenly heard Brother Yan's voice.

"Invite me?" Wu Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "No, I haven't written a mystery novel at all, how could they invite me!"

Although there are countless mystery novels in Wu Xiaotian's mind, they have never been published in this world. Previously, he wrote martial arts novels, children's literature, young adult novels, and history. Among them, his martial arts novels are the most famous.

He was thinking that the organizers of this contest and the people they invited must be mystery novelists from all over the world, such as people like Chai Xin, and he, who has never written a mystery novel, should not be invited.

"What's that? Who says that someone who hasn't written a mystery novel can't write a mystery novel. ”

"That's it, Xiaotian, your other types of novels are so good, and they are all several genres, if you write mystery novels, it must be very good. ”

"It's that I just met a writer in the United States, who has never written a mystery novel, and he was invited to participate. ”

Brother Yan, Ah Jiu and the others looked at Wu Xiaotian, and they all looked hopeful, hoping that Wu Xiaotian would be able to participate in this mystery novel competition. In their eyes, Wu Xiaotian is omnipotent.

"The United States?" Wu Xiaotian asked strangely.

"Yes, it's an American writer who usually writes horror novels, and this time he was also invited to participate in this mystery novel competition in Japan. Brother Yan explained.

"Oh!"

Wu Xiaotian was about to ask.

At this time, someone outside the office was calling Wu Xiaotian, saying that Li Min had something to find him and asked him to go to the office.

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

Wu Xiaotian replied casually, he didn't know what was going on, but he immediately got up, said a word to Brother Yan and the others, and walked towards Li Min's office.
