Chapter 413: Mary Sue Dose Too Much
Lin Qi planned to study the matter of instant messaging software, but was finally defeated by the speed of the network, because he couldn't accept that it would take half a day to receive a reply when ten words were sent, and sometimes the messages sent would be lost. Moreover, in the current network environment, the server simply cannot handle the massive amount of chat data. Therefore, the server can only be auxiliary, and the data transmission of the chat mainly requires the use of peer-to-peer technology. Users need to be both online in order to chat. It's not instant messaging at all, and it doesn't even replace email.
At this time, Lin Qi thought about why instant messaging didn't come out until after the 90s, not because no one had thought about this idea, but because the network environment was immature, so he had to give up.
Thinking too much all day long, Lin Qi is not an iron man, and he will feel it. Coincidentally, the editor of the New Venture Publishing Group handed him a manuscript to read, so he should relax.
If it were in the 21st century, Lin Qi would not read such a typical female frequency style book. However, traveling back to the 80s, with a high-minded mentality, there are very few literary and artistic works here that can satisfy him. It's not that I think it's too earthy, or I feel that it lacks brain holes, which can't be compared with the brain holes decades later.
"Eighth Master, Can You Love Me Again" Lin Qi looked at it idly and bored, and found that it was similar to the 21st century's fire through the palace fighting drama "Palace", and he didn't know who he was writing about, could it be the same as him, the same as a traverser? With the idea of wanting to see whether the other party is a human or a dog, Lin Qi plans to meet this little-known little author.
Because, although it is quite disgusting to pass through the Qing Palace in later generations, there is a certain market after all. Moreover, the disgust of later generations of audiences and the Qing Gong system also started from various popular dramas that crossed the palace. In the past, dramas such as "Yongzheng", "Kangxi", and "Qianlong", although they whitewashed history and licked the taste of the Qing Dynasty, after all, there was some high-level support behind them, and the people at the bottom generally loved to watch them.
However, all kinds of palace fights, not only in the plot, but also between authors, you copy me, I copy you. Among them, the most well-known is Yu Ma, Guo Xiaosi in the screenwriting industry.
Under Lin Qi's instructions, assistant Xiao Chen asked the author of "Eight Masters" to go to Lin Qi's office to see him, and saw the young man in front of him, with messy bird's nest hair, a pair of thick bottle-bottom eyes, and old and short clothes on his body, obviously a person who has not been out for several years, I didn't expect that there are still otaku in this era, and it is the first time I have seen a thin otaku like him.
"What was your original intention in writing this book?" Lin Qi looked at this person named Liang Bian with interest, it looked like the two of them should be a few years old, but Liang Bian didn't look like he should be at this age, and from his body, Lin Qi seemed to be able to smell a musty smell.
"Yes...... Is it ......" Liang Bian clasped his hands a little restrainedly, he can't say that in fact, the prototype of the heroine is himself, he is familiar with the history of the Qing Dynasty, knows the Eight Kings Rebellion in history, and combined with some of his own conjectures, he created this nondescript crossing the palace fight, of course, his most important purpose is to fulfill his dream of being sought after and pampered by tens of thousands of people, if this is not made up blindly, Liang Bian may not be able to achieve it in this life.
Fortunately, Liang Bian didn't say it, otherwise Lin Qi didn't guarantee that he wouldn't spit it out in front of him, because the idea of this product is really a bit different, and he brought himself into the heroine, is this product a pervert?
However, disgusting is disgusting, Lin Qi decided to help Liang Bian publish this, and after causing a certain repercussion, he also planned to shoot it into a TV series, you know, after Yu Ma's drama lived, he was worth twice as much, and he was famous, and then he filmed a lot of TV series. There are also a few hard goods in those TV series, and the more Lin Qi thinks about it, the more shameful he feels about this kind of person.
Lin Qi is not envious of his mother's success, the main thing is that he is really not used to plagiarizing and pirating people, although he himself sometimes learns from the successful experience of others, but that is the inevitability of history, he does not do it, someone will always do it, and Lin Qi is obviously a better implementer.
Yu Ma, that someone else has already done it, and as we all know, things are not original to him, and everyone else knows that he wants to copy it, and he still commits crimes against the wind, and he must copy every drama, copy one and one fire.
Liang Bian obviously didn't expect Lin Qi to be so happy, in fact, he didn't have much hope, because he also knew that the books he wrote were somewhat inconsistent with the current mainstream values, and people's current thinking was still relatively conservative, but there were a lot of explicit plots in him, coupled with the heroine's tens of millions of favors, it was estimated that many aunts would scold him.
"The name needs to be changed! This name is too child's play, and it is not appropriate to adapt film and television dramas in the future!" Lin Qi said indifferently.
"What, adapting a film and television drama?" Liang Bian is just a third-rate literature lover who has never even published it before, so he is a little overjoyed.
Soon Lin Qi made a decision, "Eight Masters" was renamed "Palace" and published, it was Lin Qi's idea to change the name, he felt that it was still the previous name, the one on the side of Liang was indeed too Mary Sue, and there was no difference between those domineering presidents falling in love with me, it didn't mean anything at all, and this simple word can be very attractive to readers.
……
At the beginning of "Palace", a woman named Qingtian is sitting in front of a computer, and her fingers are quickly typing something on the keyboard.
"After watching "Yongzheng Dynasty", which prince is your favorite?" The woman's fingers flew up and down, dazzling.
"Of course it's the fourth master, haven't you read that the title of this book is called "Yongzheng Dynasty", of course, the most intelligent, brainy and handsome fourth master, what, do you like anything else?" Another reply soon appeared in the dialog box, and the sound of the prompt startled Qingtian.
Qingtian frowned, in fact, she felt that the eighth prince was also very good, because he had always been the fourth master's biggest opponent, but when the person on the other side questioned her like that, she immediately felt that she was embarrassed to like the eighth master, so she followed the other party's words and said that of course she also liked the fourth master.
After that, Qingtian found that he had crossed, and after that, it was the ordinary girl who crossed the common Gongdou series in the later generations to meet the ancient prince, and the two princes with different personalities were both dead or alive to her.
"Palace" is not intended to be a Mary Sue, the poison of women. After reading it, many women said that no eighth master was going to die, and some girls said that they wanted to cross.
In Hong Kong, the market for men has declined. Even if fantasy and Xianxia appear, they cannot reach the sales of the glorious period of martial arts. In fact, at present, many male readers in Hong Kong read more comics, and many people feel that reading too many words has a headache.
However, there are relatively many female literary youths, and female literary youth are especially Mary Sue. Qiong Yao can be popular, that is, she caters to the female Mary Sue has a set.
And the text level of "Palace" is naturally not as good as Qiong Yao, but the dose in Mary Sue is far more than Qiong Yao.
Therefore, all of a sudden, a crooked wind suddenly blew in Hong Kong, and many female literary youths asked when they met, do you like the fourth master or the eighth master?
There is also a woman, after watching it, imagining herself as a sunny day, entangled between the two princes, and finally because she didn't choose one, she went crazy.
Even Lin Qi was not only surprised when he saw the social comments later, is this Mary Suwen too much for this era?
Of course, the notoriety of "Palace" is outside, although Lin Qi wants to make money, he also feels that the new entrepreneurship department is not suitable for directly adapting this play.
……
Fortunately, Gao Lianming, a food businessman who went out to start a business from the new entrepreneurship department, suddenly came to the door and wanted to invest in the adaptation of "Palace".
Gao Lianming has no other hobbies, he likes to watch the new launch of the New Venture Publishing Group chain rental bookstore, if there is something with condiments in it, it would be better, I don't know what's going on, Liang Bian's "Eight Masters" is to Gao Lianming's taste.
And after he made this money, he planned to spend it on things that made him happy, he thought about it and wanted to invest in a TV series, and the script of the TV series would naturally be Liang Bian's "Eight Masters".
Liang Bian still doesn't know what kind of luck he has gone, but he has been favored by two bigwigs in a row, from publishing to making a TV series, all this is like a dream.
Since the new start-up film and television company will not adapt, it is naturally best for someone to accept it.
Soon, the New Venture Publishing Group transferred this copyright to Gao Lianming. The sky-high licensing fee of 500,000 yuan, at least for the author who has not yet become popular.
After signing the copyright agreement.
Gao Lianming smacked his lips, and then asked Liang Biandao: "You say, who will you end up with on this sunny day?"
Liang Bian was almost thundered to death, not only did this thing not care about the TV ratings, but he was also worried about the storyline of the characters, he said the truth, big brother, who you said you want to fall in love with on a sunny day, I will write who she likes.
But before Liang Bian could say anything, Lin Qi came to a big business, and then the two simply went outside for a walk in order not to disturb Lin Qi's work.
"Mr. Gao, I really didn't say it, after this book was published, I also heard the opinions of many readers, they have mixed reviews, your ratings may not be guaranteed, and when the advertising can't have the corresponding effect, you will lose money. Liang Bian hesitated several times, but finally said what was in his heart, he felt that he couldn't make any money from making this book into a TV series, and it was very likely that he would lose money, what did Gao Lianming think.
"Losing money? If the budget is less than 10 million, it is considered money?" Gao Lianming glanced at Liang Bian in surprise, but he didn't speak, can he say that his sense of substitution is also very strong, he just wants to see Qingtian get happiness in his own work, how cute such a woman is.
Of course, Gao Lianming didn't mention it, he wanted to hold a heroine like a sunny day. After the crew finishes acting, they can still wear costumes to continue acting at home.
A play with a budget of 10 million, even if it loses, as long as a goddess is auditioned, it is also profitable for investors.
If Gao Lianming knew that this heroine was the original author's fantasy self, he would definitely vomit and let people beat this pervert to death.
The two talked for a while, and then it was time to separate, and in the end they decided to shoot a TV series, as for the protagonist or something, Gao Lianming said that he would fully respect the author's opinion.
After the TV series "Palace" came out, it really triggered a series of discussions, and because the heroine invited did have a silly and sweet temperament, it was very popular with the audience, but for her who originally liked the eighth master and then liked the fourth master and then had an ambiguous relationship with the prince, such a character is like a landlord with a group of wives and concubines, and everyone revolves around her.
"What kind of stupid TV did I say, and there are still people watching it?" an audience member angrily smashed his VCD, and he got angry when he saw a sunny day.
