Chapter 342: An Unprecedented Challenge
The approaching Spring Festival was originally the most intensive time in the entertainment industry, what Spring Festival Gala program list was exposed, what little fresh meat Spring Festival Gala tour, what Spring Festival movies competed with ticket supplements, or which two gossip stars were photographed going back to their hometowns to spend the Spring Festival together, etc.
Singers, actors, and artists all seem to be working hard to make big news at the turn of the New Year!
But among these people in the entertainment industry, Zhang Chu, a person who writes books, can get a share of the attention of the media and netizens, which seems commendable.
Now the hot search on Weibo still has the topic of the four words "Zhang Chu's new book", which has become a wonderful flower.
The praise from the embassy, the real sales of books around the world, and the new books that claim to be the classic culture of China, the news about him is mostly positive.
Such a young and powerful writer is easily misunderstood by some people as a youth idol, and they don't look at how his works are!
Those who write some youthful and pretentious words can hardly handle any of them when facing Zhang Chu.
Under the influence of Zhang Chu, more than one or two young people picked up a pen or keyboard and began to write books, and it is estimated that after many years, this group of writers will say in unison when they are interviewed: We started writing because of Zhang Chu.
"Damn, more than a million copies are sold in a week around the world, and no one comments on this kind of news?"
"To tell the truth, Zhang Chu greatly needs a good brokerage company, and this kind of company is really inaction. ”
"Kneel down to the big guy, is this the first film to win the first prize on the British bestseller list?"
"It's really low-key, if the media doesn't report it, Zhang Chu won't publicize it, where is the former Internet addict teenager now?"
"Hahahaha, I met matcha in Jiangcheng Hanlinxuan Bookstore, according to the clerk, His Royal Highness Matcha is the god cat of the town store, but unfortunately I didn't meet Zhang Chuda, otherwise there would be a signed book. ”
"There are many people on the Internet who are urging Random House! Just let that group of gringos go in a hurry, "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is not so easy to translate, it's good to be Chinese!"
All kinds of news emerge one after another, but Zhang Chu himself had to make a difficult mistake after initially browsing his mind, he simply dug a pit and buried himself!
Because "Sou Shen Ji" is not one book at all, but there are six copies!
When he wrote "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" before, he only got the first of the eight books out, and now he wants to pit another book, which feels weird.
"Alas, why don't you try to finish writing "Sou Shen Ji" in one go? For the time being, let's not be afraid of the Savage Trilogy, lest the stall be too big when you get it. ”
Let's not talk about "The Wild Story", "Sou Shen Ji" alone is divided into six parts: Shennong Messenger, Dragon God Prince, Lingshan Ten Witches, Winged Bird, Sansheng Stone, and Seems to be an Old Man.
On the surface, it seems that there are not many chapters, but a chapter has tens of thousands of words, which is not the same as the current 2,000 words or 3,000 words in a chapter.
If you were to write the whole book, it would be almost 1.6 million words, which is quite a huge project!
Don't look at the fact that Zhang Chu has written so many books since he was reborn, but the added number is not even a million words, which is far from the peak of online writers' creation.
After all, many online writers can update tens of thousands of words a day, and they may be able to soar to two million words in half a year!
Zhang Chu only has a large number of books he has created, not a large number of words he has written.
Many of the works he carried were at the beginning of the series or just this one, and they were never finished.
It's like the full text of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is one or two million words, but he just wrote "Exquisite Ancient City", and the rest is waiting to continue writing.
Zhang Chu is not a professional codeword after all, if he doesn't modify the content and copy it in its entirety, maybe his update speed can be compared with the fastest online writer.
But that means nothing to him, at most it is just a pleasure for the readers, and it is not beneficial for the improvement of his personal ability!
"Alas, let's study the plot of "Sou Shen Ji" again, I hope I can finish the study before the Spring Festival, and then go and see "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". ”
Now that he has made the decision to write this book, it is not his style to quit because of difficulties.
Zhang Chu's previous published works were all about 200,000 words each, but this time it directly increased the difficulty of the challenge, and the pressure on him was really not small.
After all, the content of 1.5 million words is obviously more than ten times more complex than that of a 200,000-word work, and the plot, characters, and background involved are much grander.
If there was no system to help, then Zhang Chu would really be helpless, and he would not be able to do it at all.
If he really completed this huge project, and let these six books meet readers at the same time, the sensation caused by it would be absolutely extraordinary!
Not to mention the time it takes to prepare, even if you write 10,000 words a day, you have to write 150 days, that's a full five months.
Zhang Chu was very skeptical that if he really spent so long writing, what would the outside world say about him.
"Why don't you give readers some sweetness? Let the new book be serialized in a magazine, and what they think is the content of one book is actually six volumes?"
This kind of prank seems to be quite funny, and he is already fantasizing about the appearance of the reader's appearance in this scene, and he is afraid that he will be overjoyed!
If there was such a surprise when I read a book by myself, I would definitely be excited, who doesn't want to read the whole book at once?
In order to achieve the effect of this kind of raid, it is necessary to do an unparalleled job of secrecy, not only on their own side, but also on the publishing house and brokerage company.
There may be many people who think he is crazy, but the effect should be explosive, just like the first book on the shelves at the beginning!
It was not Zhang Chu's intention to dig so many pits, but now it can be filled one by one.
Now he only keeps these things in his heart, and when he actually writes, he will see the specific progress and make minor adjustments.
Even if you want to serialize "Sou Shen Ji", you have to let "Wanli Fifteen Years" go on the market.
Now Zhang Chu is a little painful and happy, the time flow rate of the savior system is his biggest capital, he can conceive how to write the following content in the system, and in reality it is just a nap!
This Spring Festival is destined to be very fulfilling, Zhang Chu is considering whether to go to the mall to change his computer, I am afraid that the keyboard of the laptop will be difficult to withstand his long hours of typing every day.
These gorgeous and concise words made Zhang Chu a little fascinated, and the writing style similar to martial arts was very atmospheric, and the epic heroic character creation provided him with a lot of inspiration.
The sparks in Zhang Chu's head are colliding rapidly!
