After sending Zhang Bowen and Chu Lan to the security checkpoint, Zhang Chu reluctantly waved goodbye to the two of them.

He really hopes that his parents can be so chic, they failed to provide such good material conditions in their previous life, and it is best to make up for it in this life.

Although Zhang Bowen didn't want to use his son's money, Chu Lan happily accepted the credit card, which represented his son's heart!

On the way back, Zhang Chu hummed a song while driving.

The mood is very happy.

Ya'er Hutong is also a relatively intact existing alley, and it is very close to Houhai, and from time to time there are some tourists who come here to wander around.

Zhang Chu didn't think there was anything, anyway, no one could see anyone when the door was closed.

Because the alleys were built in the past, it is impossible to build two or three lanes, so sometimes you have to stop on the side of the road to give way when you are on the wrong side.

In late spring, when the weather was fine, Zhang Chu moved his laptop to the outdoor courtyard, and when he looked up, he could see the waning moon in the sky!

The brilliant lights of Houhai in the distance and the silence here seem to be two completely different worlds.

He has already received feedback from Ami and others, who have given high praise to "The Lord of the Rings".

Although one main character was written, the overall was not bad.

The only problem is that the writing looks boring!

If the problem becomes serious, it will be very fatal.

In fact, Zhang Chu was already trying to avoid this problem when he was writing, because the original book is actually very boring, which makes many readers who have switched from the movie complain!

Tolkien was a master of linguistics who created a vast worldview in The Lord of the Rings.

However, linguistics is not the same as literature, and the overall reading experience is actually relatively average, and it is not as emotional as modern writers.

Many foreign writers write like a running account, and some of the plots in it are inappropriately detailed.

Like the death of Boromir in the first Lord of the Rings, he was tempted by the One Ring to snatch the ring.

Inside, however, Aragorn heard the sound of a trumpet, and when he ran over, he found Boromir lying dead on the ground, without any detail of what was described above!

But in the movie, this is very detailed and touching, allowing the audience to see a waking Boromir, the eldest son of the regent of the Kingdom of Gondor.

The conversation with Aragon before his death was particularly moving.

Therefore, when Zhang Chu was writing, he expanded the content that Tolkien had originally omitted to the extreme, using the film picture as the blueprint, plus his own creation.

In addition to the plot, the difference in writing is also an important reason.

There was still a big difference between some of the literature of the twentieth century and the popular and best-selling works of the modern era, and Tolkien probably didn't focus on how to make the story more interesting.

In addition, a lot of metaphors are used, which makes readers seem to need to use their brains a lot of the time, which is more laborious and boring than many popular and straightforward plots!

Just like Zhang Chu's "The Da Vinci Code" also claims to use the brain, but compared with "The Lord of the Rings", there are two different ways of thinking with the brain.

Another reason why it feels boring is that "The Lord of the Rings" is not a separate story, and the adventures of the Fellowship of the Ring are just a small passage in Middle-earth.

All kinds of times are happening at the same time in all corners of the same world, and the Fellowship Team connects these events together, and then the whole world!

In order to create this world, many different races, cultures, countries, and even scripts were created, and as a result, all kinds of genealogies and all kinds of racial habits were created.

When these inextricable connections come together, Chinese readers who are not familiar with European cultural history will naturally find it particularly difficult.

At the end of the day, it's a Western fantasy work.

Even if Zhang Chu wrote it in Chinese, European culture was already engraved in its bones.

Compared with the seriousness and dryness of "The Lord of the Rings", "The Hobbit" is much more concise and cheerful, so Zhang Chu is more learning to write "The Lord of the Rings" in the style of "The Hobbit"!

People who only like to watch plots and fights will definitely get bored when they see the words that insert poems from time to time and tell the history of Middle-earth from time to time, especially the large number of Western names and place names that give them a headache.

In fact, at this point, Zhang Chu is not easy to modify.

Does someone say that if he can't remember these names, he will change the name of a Westerner to an Oriental?

Apparently something that can't happen.

It can only be said that this book needs to be read by this type of reader, not for all consumers.

This book is slow-paced and not for readers who are used to a fast pace, but for those who like a huge worldview.

No single book can conquer all readers, not even this world-famous work of Western fantasy!

On the earth, some Europeans and Americans couldn't read this book, let alone Orientals.

Zhang Chu silently found out the places marked by his friends, typos, inappropriate words, words that do not convey the meaning and even a certain sentence does not match the identity.

The plot has not changed, but the details can be improved.

Little by little, he felt that after this revision was completed, he could hand it over to the publishing companies on both sides, so that they could use it for printing and sales.

"Alas, ask for your own hardship, ask for your own hardship!"

Revision is an extremely difficult thing, and it is not easy to change an 800-word essay after it is written, let alone 300,000 words.

Zhang Chu took a sip of the fat house happy water, and after complaining, he continued to work.

He secretly made up his mind that after the Lord of the Rings series was written, he would not write similar works in a short period of time, and it would be good to write something light-hearted and enjoyable without effort, such as the "Ghost Blows the Lamp" series.

When I wrote the first two volumes of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", although there were also references and revisions, I didn't strive for perfection to this point, and now I have reached the point of nitpicking!

But this is probably just talk, Zhang Chu is a restless person.

I don't want to challenge the works that are not difficult at all, I like the difficult works, so that I can improve myself.

More than an hour passed, and he revised tens of thousands of words with annotations.

And this is already considered to be an excellent progress.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and so is writing.

Now that the Fellowship of the Ring has been written, the language style has been established, all the preparations that need to be done have been put in place, and even the plot that follows has been straightened out.

In this way, he saved a lot of effort when writing "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King", and it can take less time than that!
