There are many doubts in it, and there are so many things waiting for readers to discover.

Where is the Lonely Mountain, what is the battle of the Five Armies, Bilbo picked up the Ring from a strange creature, and this world called Middle-earth has given birth to such a wonderful and complete history!

It's not the same as the traditional network, or even the opposite.

However, Zhang Chu has made "The Lord of the Rings" accepted by the majority of netizens, as long as you can watch a little more content, you will like it.

This is not much like his previous style, not so much like popular, but rather an academic work with a story and a plot.

The structure is very rigorous, the progress of the chapters is under control, the history of the characters is narrated, the ideas are very clear, and the whole clue is numerous but not disorderly, as long as you keep reading, you can understand the story!

Many people read a book or watch a movie and only watch the first few minutes and want to figure out the plot behind it, saying something they can't understand, and so on.

If you can really understand it in such a short time, it will be hell!

It is impossible for any work to let you know everything that follows at the beginning, even if it has the ending in front of you, but the cause and process need to be slowly unfolded.

There are many fantasy themes, surreal elements or fantasy elements, and a grand story is conceived in this alternate world!

It's just that The Lord of the Rings can justify itself, creating a bizarre race of hobbits that can be believed to be real in every way, and has a long history, dating back many, many years.

Personal heroism is inevitable in fantasy, and even Harry Potter is the savior of the wizarding world and the nemesis of Mr. Unspeakable.

In "The Lord of the Rings", the protagonist is just a hobbit, this dwarf with big feet doesn't seem to have strong skills, no superb witchcraft, and no strength in strategy, ordinary to the extreme!

If there is any merit in him, it may be that he has an uncle who has a legendary experience and inherited the One Ring from his uncle.

Many readers are expecting Frodo to become stronger, to be able to grow up when he arrives at Mordor Volcano, and directly kill the Demon King Sauron, so that there is no need to destroy the Ring.

With such a powerful ring and the famous wizard Gandalf by his side, this is an opportunity!

Seize the opportunity, and then find a few adventures on the way, and cultivate to rise with the combat power.

Zhang Chu didn't follow the ideas of this group of people, Frodo is mainly in resisting the temptation of the Ring, and his willpower is very strong, and the rest of the time is probably like a drag oil bottle, and he is still a war scum by the end of the trilogy.

The pace of the story is surprisingly slow, the dialogue is scarce, the song is sings at every turn, and the descriptive text is outrageously descriptive, and it is often a few pages of large environmental descriptions!

If they knew that this was still the result of being condensed by Zhang Chu, they didn't know how they would feel.

Zhang Chu himself is the plot controller, for him the plot is the most important thing in a work, and the character image and environmental description are slightly secondary.

He has always relied on the ups and downs of the plot to attract readers, and this time he confronted his weaknesses.

It's fantasy to say, but if you change the identities of the characters in it a little, it's okay to see it as history.

There are very few fantasy factors in it, those ferocious rings actually ride horses everywhere to search for the ring, wizards with magic staff do not use spells but want melee combat, and the elven race seems to have no problem changing to a race that is good at archery.

Zhang Chu is not sure that this will become a classic, and it is difficult to say whether "The Lord of the Rings" can bear this name.

But in today's fast-paced society, it's a pleasure to stop and read such a work!

It's not obscure, but it's still grand and unusual.

Zhang Chu faced his shortcomings and magnified his advantages.

He injected excitement and excitement into the text, bringing a bit of legend to Frodo's journey to the east.

Described with the charm of the poems and the expressive details, although the characters have few dialogues, the ornate and undulating language is like the singing of medieval European bards.

Although Peter Jackson's film trilogy can be called a classic in film history, there are many cuts to the plot in it.

At the beginning, many old readers were joking, if you really want to put these plots into the sky-high price, it is estimated that the first part will take 10 hours to be enough!

Now, what Zhang Chu has to do is to promote "The Lord of the Rings" in Cannes.

When celebrities from all walks of life are vying to be exposed in the film and television sector and the entertainment sector, the attention of the culture sector and the reading sector is placed on Zhang Chu.

A hundred literary critics can't praise a movie, so he went to Cannes, a holy place for film art, to promote books, and the purpose was naturally very clear!

Eighty percent of people watch movies for enjoyment, but when they read books, they think about it.

Now, the staff of Random House has set up a small press conference on the sidewalk outside the hotel, and the posters of "The Lord of the Rings" are hanging on both sides, and many tourists and reporters passing by have looked sideways.

Many of them even use their mobile phones to take pictures of the time, for fear that they will forget it later!

"I have to say, the book is very well written, even if it looks a little old, but readers have already told you how much it sells!"

Simply didn't miss the trip to Cannes, one to promote The Lord of the Rings and the other to Life of Pi.

Director Li Yu's Youth Pi will also release posters and trailers here, and in that case, there will definitely be many people interested in the original movie.

There has been news from the start of filming to the completion of the filming, but the pictures filmed are limited, so let's look at the finished product given by the crew.

Zhang Chu stretched, and he said with a smile: "What good news have you brought? ”

"In the last 24 hours, your Lord of the Rings has been the most downloaded e-book in the world. Did you know that it has topped the e-book sales charts on all Amazon sites around the world?"

"Well, I really don't know. Every country has an Amazon website?"

Blair shook his head: "No, no, no, it is impossible to have it in every country, it is the main country that has it." North America has the United States and Canada, Central America and South America have Brazil and Mexico, Europe has the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Asia has China, Dongying, India, Australia, of course. If it is a user from other countries, they will choose the nearest country or the United States to download the e-book, which can also provide services. ”

"The problem is, we have released English and Chinese versions, French versions, German versions, these are not released, and there are so many people who buy e-books?

Zhang Chu's doubts were here, he thought that several major English-speaking countries had won the championship, but he didn't expect the world to be so powerful.

"There are so many people, otherwise why do you say that you are amazing! In a country, there will always be people who can understand English. If you look at Singapore, the download volume of the English version and the Chinese version is almost the same, and on the Amazon e-book sales list in other countries, the Chinese version of "The Lord of the Rings" also has a good ranking, but the gap with the English version is a little big!"

**************

Today, I tracked the Yangtze River Bridge incident in my hometown for a day, and at night I was still talking to my friends about the news of CCTV ten years ago, and I felt a little uncomfortable.

Although I am not in my hometown for the time being, all my family members are there, and they all say that they dare not take the car recently.

Alas, hope never happens again.
