Chapter 62: Rising Star
"How do you look at the more than 800 people behind this, I thought there were 1 or 2,000 people. ”
Zhang Chu looked at the statistics given by the background of Weibo, and he couldn't help but complain, but he now has more than 70,000 fans on Weibo, and the number of replies to the shortest mystery novel comment on the last one is more than thousands.
As a result, when he actually wrote a mystery novel, not many people spent money to watch it, and directly showed the cruel reality!
After all, many fans who pay attention to Zhang Chu's Weibo are not for speculative novels, but for his poisonous tongues, and everyone doesn't pay attention to novels in this area at all.
Fortunately, "Sherlock" and the dialogue with Qin Mu also made him attract some people who like suspense and mystery novels, otherwise it would be even more ugly.
The beginning of "Psychological Crime" is indeed quite attractive, but when it comes to money, it will filter out a considerable number of people, and Zhang Chu has no hardcore fans now.
After all, everyone has only known each other for a short time, and talking about money hurts feelings!
Fortunately, some readers who spent five cents to read the content praised the content a lot, and the number of people urging the change suddenly increased, especially the "Teddy Urging Party".
It's an up-and-coming group known for mailing teddy dogs to authors, and it's outrageous!
It can be seen that Zhang Chu's writing and layout skills have improved a lot compared to "Detective Sherlock", and he is very professional. When will the next chapter be updated, don't wait for ten days and half a month!"
"The first victim of "Psychological Crime" is a negative example of people who pay close attention to social news, and people have a long-standing hatred for such characters. I think it's very pleasant and beautiful. ”
"Very creative, the description of the case is novel, dipped in blood to do math problems, and suddenly there is an urge to go back to high school and arrest the math teacher. ”
"Since the title of the book is Psychological Crime, I think it should be a technical means such as psychological portraits to solve the case, right? ”
"There are so many new authors coming out every year, but only Zhang Chu can get my praise, "Sherlock" is the pinnacle of the same humanities, and this "Psychological Crime" is the top-notch work among the newcomers. ”
"Damn, I haven't come out of the pit of "Sherlock" yet, and I have fallen into the pit of "Psychological Crime". Zhang Chu, your mother called you home to fill the pit!"
"I always feel that he will be the new generation of pit kings, digging pits without filling them, and accidentally falling into them. Please be cautious, cherish life, and stay away from the gods. ”
Zhang Chu looked at these comments, and he became full of motivation again, switched to the typing page, and typed quickly.
This is exactly what he wants, and every compliment and reminder is precious.
……
Xu Hao has been paying attention to Zhang Chu, and he has even recommended the film and television adaptation plan of "Detective Sherlock" to the familiar company, and now after Zhang Chu wrote the first reasoning work in the real sense, he clicked to read it as soon as possible.
Unlike readers, industry insiders like Xu Hao and Qin Mu looked more carefully, especially after Qin Mu spent five cents, he directly smashed the mouse out.
"Lao Qin, no matter what you think, Zhang Chu's level embodied at the beginning of "Psychological Crime" is definitely not below you and me, and he can definitely be called a rising star. ”
Xu Hao said very directly, not caring at all about Qin Mu Tieqing's face on the other side of the computer, he also publicly said a few days ago that he would help Zhang Chu explain how to write suspenseful reasoning novels, and as a result, others came up with high-quality works at this time.
Qin Mu's mouse was gone, and he could only use the touch screen of his laptop to control the cursor, and he typed and replied: "A good opening does not mean that the follow-up is good, maybe the original form will appear later, I will sit and wait for the follow-up." ”
"It's good if you're happy, but don't look up and don't look down, and don't get too stiff. Xu Hao persuaded that the reasoning world is such a big place, how embarrassing it will be to meet in the future.
Qin Mu pretended to be dead at this time, not wanting to talk about this topic anymore and talking about the rest of the things.
Although Qin Mu was not interested in Zhang Chu, the rest of the reasoning world was quite surprised by Zhang Chu's new book, and the professionalism even threw them off a lot!
Times are different, China has not caught up with the era when private detectives were prevalent, and now criminal investigation technology is far beyond people's imagination.
Many people don't understand the modern criminal investigation route at all, and what they write is very false, and it is difficult for people who are not engaged in related industries to understand the process and difficulties of solving real crimes.
But Zhang Chu's "Psychological Crime" directly selected the actor Fang Mu as a police officer, he is a student, and there are no relatives and friends related to the police around him, so he can write such a professional text.
There is no other language for everyone except to sigh, maybe people find information from other channels?
The unique charm of mystery novels is to give readers a kind of quick thinking based on logical thinking, and generally when it comes to the answer part, the reader will have unexpected reactions.
"Why didn't I think of it", "So it was", "Totally reasonable", "No wonder he said that" and so on.
Mystery fiction originated in the United States, developed in the United Kingdom, and became popular in RB, as many reasoning say, this type of novel is actually a game between the author and the reader!
This is a kind of intellectual game, more like a competition between the author and the reader, the author must compete with the reader fairly, the author must maintain a certain degree of honesty while using strategy and trickery, so as to win with intelligence, through the exquisite and honest design to arouse the reader's interest, all the clues must be explained clearly, not to the final reveal of the puzzle to throw out a lot of clues that have not been seen at all.
Of course, suspense mystery novels must solve the case through natural methods, what magic, asking the gods for divination, mind reading, crystal balls are all taboos, if it appears, it is a magic novel, not a mystery novel, so there is nothing to see.
Zhang Chu's "Psychological Crime" perfectly fits these factors, arousing the curiosity of the authors in the mystery world, and they all incarnate as Sherlock Holmes, hoping to find usable clues from his written descriptions, so as to infer the suspects.
……
"Classmate Zhang Chu, are you busy at this time?"
A QQ message from Gu Xinxue, editor of Nanhai Publishing Company, jumped out, Zhang Chu clicked on the word document to save it, and then replied: "I am writing "Psychological Crime", what is the matter?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal, our Nanhai Publishing Company is a publishing giant in the reasoning world, and all the writers who have published works in our company have added a group, I'll pull you in." It is good for you to know more of your peers, but it is not okay to work behind closed doors, but it is better to communicate more. ”
It just so happened that Zhang Chu didn't know much about the writers, so he readily agreed, "No problem, do I add the group or do you pull people?"
"I'm the administrator, I'll pull you, and I'll find a few writers to recommend your book on the physical book at that time. By the way, the content of "Sherlock" has been proofread and is looking for artists to design the layout, and you will be able to see the printed version in about a few days. ”
Publishing a book doesn't happen overnight, and after such a long time, "Sherlock" is finally going to be produced, and it is estimated that it will take some time before it is sold out of the warehouse.
While speaking, Gu Xinxue pulled Zhang Chu into the QQ group called Nanhai Reasoning, there were quite a lot of people in this group, and when Zhang Chu browsed the list of group members, he immediately saw Qin Mu's name.
He really didn't expect Qin Mu to be in the same publishing company as himself, this is too fateful!
