Chapter 241: Book Lovers Riot Season 2 (Part I)
There has been no snow on Christmas for six years, but the weather is getting colder, just like the so-called professional criticism that Gu Yongsheng encountered at this time.
After the long review of Radish Head, the voice of Gu Yongsheng's "self-repetition and perfunctory readers and manuscripts" was very loud, and the technical analysis was nothing more than to criticize the similarity of the layout and character settings, and some nitpicky commentators also grasped the style of writing and language to criticize, which is already a sign of word exhaustion.
Echoing these professional opinions, netizens quickly deduced that Gu Yongsheng's repetition was actually to deal with the draft of "Dajianghu", on the one hand, he couldn't erase his favor and wanted to accept the draft, on the other hand, he couldn't give too strong support to his opponent, after all, "Dajianghu" and "Craftsman" are now opponents, and Gu Yongsheng definitely doesn't want his opponent to steal the limelight of his own magazine.
For these two reasons, Gu Yongsheng had an idea, and simply adjusted the same setting slightly to create two stories, killing two birds with one stone, and he could also get a lot of manuscript fees, why not?
These speculations are the same as the comments of experts, and they were soon beaten by the readers' crazy group, similar to the other world, the group of experts has never been treated well, as for the water army that made criticism, it is obvious that they did not judge the shape clearly, this PK is an activity for the readers to engage in to entertain themselves, and it belongs to the internal contradictions of the people, for example, the "Snow Mountain Party" can mock two sentences of "Blue Blood Sword" in order to canvass votes for "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", but this does not mean that they can compete with other attacks on "Blue Blood Sword" of commentators are on the same side as the trolls, and vice versa.
So, the current situation is. The "Snow Mountain Party" and the "Blue Blood Party" announced a temporary truce and fought against the professional critics and the sailors who tried to take advantage of the chaos.
Professional commentators have a lot of quirks of showing off their intelligence, so how can they be afraid of being beaten up by readers. So they formed a group with each other in their own groups, and began to fight with a sense of superiority.
Qianhong's initial attitude was of course laissez-faire, and there were battles to indicate that there were topics, and their current essay collection activities were fighting against the selection competition of Dingshi Culture, and they wouldn't mind more topics at all.
Still, when Gu Yongsheng's readers rebounded, Qianhong immediately responded. Take a stand.
"Mr. Gu Yongsheng's "Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain" is indeed related to "Blue Blood Sword" in terms of writing style and plot, but as long as you read the two books carefully, you can easily see that these are two stories with completely different styles. The narrative technique is also the same but different, as for the perfunctory clouds proposed by some people of insight, you really have to worry about it, this kind of provocative trick is really low-level. It's better to read the book first and then write a review.
Other than that. When Qianhong cooperated with Mr. Gu Yongsheng, she was always convinced by Mr. Gu's writing attitude and ethics, and hoped that the malicious smear would give her self-respect. ”
Qianhong's official response was completely merciless, 100% on Gu Yongsheng's side, and soon after the official Weibo statement was issued, Yi Shui'an posted another note on his personal microblog to express his support for Gu Yongsheng, and pointed out frankly: "In terms of text and story rhythm, I personally think that "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" is more exciting and concise. I definitely don't believe that Gu Yongsheng harmed others and benefited himself, but it is very possible otherwise. So, stop these meaningless discussions. ”
Yi Shui'an rarely shows his personal feelings in the micro-blog, and the few times he occasionally reveals it are almost all related to Gu Yongsheng, if it weren't for Yi Shui'an being married to a wife, the scandals that circulated in the market before would inevitably be brought up again.
Yi Shui'an's micro-blog was quickly forwarded by Lu Yichou, the boss of Qianhong, and commented: "In the six years since his debut, he has produced an average of at least three works a year, and all of them are high-quality, and those who question Gu Yongsheng's character and level, I really want to question his IQ." ”
As a party, Qianhong's voice naturally has sufficient weight, but this does not stop professional critics from moving forward, who first named Qianhong's behavior as "a decision driven by some interests", and then continued to grasp the similarities between Gu Yongsheng's two novels to compose.
As usual, Liu Jingting was still watching everyone's heated discussion out of the way, and it wasn't until Yi Shui'an and Lu Yichou spoke out that they symbolically forwarded it, said "It's troublesome", and then added a smiling expression, which made people completely confused.
This kind of indifferent attitude can only further irritate the commentators, what is "troublesome", what does this smile mean? People look for information and look up texts, and they are busy concocting reasonable and well-founded articles, what a sacred thing is this, what are you smiling at? Where is it funny?
Readers have long been accustomed to Gu Yongsheng's silent attributes, his non-appearance is the norm, and occasional bubbling is a surprise.
No matter how long you write an analytical article, you can always reply with "troublesome", and there is no flaw.
……
In addition to his low-key personality, another reason why Gu Yongsheng hopes that this topic will end is that Lin Tiange's "Qingyu Pharmacist" has been on the market and has a good start, selling 50,000 copies at the Yanjing Ordering Fair, and at the same time, his new book "Song Dao" has begun to be serialized.
Therefore, December's "Craftsman's Record" is also the last issue of the serialization of "Blue Blood Sword", which will be completed on New Year's Day, in addition, the essay collection on the side of "Dajianghu" has long ended, and the serialization of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" has also come to an end, in order to maintain the popularity of "Dajianghu", Gu Yongsheng and Yi Shui'an said that they will delay a period of time to complete the book of "Snow Mountain".
What is gratifying is that Lin Tiange really lived up to expectations, and the new work "Song Dao" won rave reviews as soon as it was serialized, and soon gathered a wave of hardcore readers, swiping posts everywhere to promote Lin Tiange, and was once considered to be the water army of "Craftsman".
Liu Jingting was really satisfied with this book, not only recommended Lin Tiange again on the microblog, but also urged Chang Youdao to sign an author's contract with him, but Lin Tiange replied that he was still reading, many things were not clear, and he was a little lacking in self-confidence, so he wanted to sign a book contract for the time being, and then sign the author's contract after a year of precipitation.
Lin Tiange was very sincere, and his tone expressed "the momentum of not signing the "Craftsman's Record", which made Chang Youdao feel very confident. has completely won this author, and when he talks back to Liu Jingting, he is full of confidence. It can be described as "a qiē is all under control".
……
"It's really good, I want to take a leave of absence from school again to join your magazine. ”
This Christmas, Mi Hu finally managed to escape from her mother's surveillance, returned to China to meet Liu Jingting, and visited the Yingri Cultural Office, and the editor's professional mentality woke up again.
"It's just a temporary place to live, and we'll move next year. Liu Jingting said.
"Where to move to?"
"Convenient place for everyone to work. ”
"yes. As the top magazine in China, it really needs a good office building. ”
Liu Jingting smiled and didn't explain, and changed the topic: "I had dinner with a few roommates at noon today." ...... in the evening"
Mi Hu didn't know what to think, her face flushed, and she hurriedly said, "I'm going home tonight." ”
"Aung Aang, yes. You go home. I'll go back to the apartment. ”
Liu Jingting replied unnaturally and changed the topic again: "Originally, Gong Chengen said that he wanted to invite us to dinner, but Wang Qianqian was delayed in Nangang due to something, so he had to go over to spend Christmas with her, but it's a pity." ”
"It's okay, next time. ”
"Hmm. ”
The place to eat was chosen by Dai Anqiao, a local of Jianghai, and considering the financial resources of the host, Liu Jingting, Dai Anqiao unceremoniously booked a private room in Beicheng with a limited price.
"A few chapters of "Breaking the Sky" are enough. Isn't that right?"
Facing Liu Jingting's murderous gaze, Dai Anqiao wittily gave him a good idea.
The private room in Beicheng has an elegant environment. The heating is smoky, but the atmosphere in the room is a little weird, first of all, Lin Xun and Xu Yuan, one will look at each other incomprehensibly, and the other will incomprehensibly whisper;
Then there is Yang Lilu, who has been silent since the departure from the apartment, and the expression on her face has always been shallow and polite, but she just doesn't speak, especially in the face of Liu Jingting, she simply ignores it.
"The half-immortal wore new clothes today, which is good. ”
In order to ease the atmosphere, Liu Jingting pretended to talk to Yang Lilu easily, but Yang Lilu asked Hu Xiaomi as if she hadn't heard it: "How many days can you stay in China when you come back this time?"
"Three days, but tomorrow I have to see my grandmother, and the day after tomorrow I have a high school reunion. Hu Xiaomi replied politely.
Yang Lilu nodded seriously and said, "Then let's go back to the apartment to play games together after dinner, and everyone can get to know each other better." ”
"Okay. ”
"What game are you playing?" Liu Jingting came up at the right time to ask.
"Playing cards, killing games, checkers, chess. Lin Xun immediately answered.
"Then let's kill the game, everyone can participate together. ”
"I think so, too. ”
"Agreed. ”
After Yang Lilu and Hu Xiaomi opened the chatterbox, they actually chatted speculatively, and soon attracted the third woman on the field, Lin Xun, the three women quickly formed a play, and their topics quickly cut from the game to entertainment gossip and cosmetics in various countries.
After the enthusiasm of the half-immortal Yang Lilu was released, she was unexpectedly uncontrollable, not only did she keep chatting with Hu Xiaomi during the meal, but she was also active in the game session afterward, and even took the initiative to order takeout for dinner.
After playing the killing game for four hours, everyone except Yang Lilu lost energy and interest, so that the player who caught the civilian card hated to surrender to the killer immediately, and the player who caught the killer card voluntarily surrendered to the police......
"Why, do you feel like everyone is a little tired?"
"Uh-huh. ”
"Uh-huh. ”
Wherever Yang Lilu saw, there was a burst of "uh-huh".
"Shall we change the game - play cards, then?"
"Huh?"
"Well, Lulu, I really want to play with everyone, but I'm afraid that my dad will be worried and want to rush back before half past nine. ”
"You want to go home?" Yang Lilu blurted out.
"yes. Hu Xiaomi replied puzzled.
"Oh, then...... Then you have to hurry home, lest your father worry about you, I'll send you. ”
"I'll just send it. Liu Jingting hurriedly got up and said.
Yang Lilu was just about to speak, but Hu Xiaomi continued: "Just let him send it." ”
"Good. ”
Liu Jingting and Mi Hu left the apartment, and as soon as they arrived downstairs, Mi Hu suddenly said, "Yang Lilu likes you." ”
"Huh?"
"Don't pretend. ”
"No, I don't. ”
Mi Hu smiled and did not continue the topic, saying: "Can you give me the manuscripts behind "Blue Blood Sword" and "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", I will watch it on the plane." ”
"No problem, mailbox. ”
"Okay, here's the car. Mi Hu said as she stretched out her hand, and a blue taxi pulled up in front of the two.
"Let's go first. Mihu pulled the door and got into the car, turning her head and waving.
"Be careful on the road. ”
When I returned to the apartment, I saw that Yang Lilu was the only one left in the living room.
"Are you also tired?" asked Liu Jingting as he looked at Yang Lilu, who was sitting in the corner of the sofa with her legs crossed.
"What do you mean?" Yang Lilu didn't look at Liu Jingting and asked rhetorically.
"It's Christmas, and you've been playing games for so long. ”
"You don't like to play, why didn't you say it earlier, what do you mean by complaining now?"
"It's not that I don't like to play, it's just ...... After playing for a few hours, didn't you see it yourself, Xu Yuan and Lin Xun obviously had their own arrangements. ”
"Are you trying to delay you in something?"
"It's also a little. ”
"Then what have you done earlier, what's the use of settling accounts with me now?"
"I'm wondering, when did you like to play games so much?"
"You can manage it, and I don't call me a half-immortal now, don't call me a half-immortal anymore. ”
"Whatever, I'm very tired now, go back to my room to rest, I don't have as much energy as you. ”
Liu Jingting said and walked towards his room, and then heard Yang Lilu's roar from behind: "Liu Jingting, you bastard!"
Liu Jingting turned his head and smiled, and continued to walk forward.
"Liu Jingting, you can't get used to me so much, I'll move out next semester!" Yang Lilu said this, tears suddenly fell.
Liu Jingting stopped, hesitated, and finally didn't turn around, said "I didn't mean that", and pushed the door into the house.
Yang Lilu ran back to her room crying, and she didn't have time to put on her shoes.
……
After Christmas, Yang Lilu and Liu Jingting started a cold war, until the New Year's Day, Yang Lilu's mother came to school to see her daughter and invited everyone to eat mutton.
Liu Jingting wanted to take this opportunity to reconcile with Yang Lilu, but unexpectedly, "Dajianghu" did a big event in the New Year, and directly serialized the finale of "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", the key is that except for Liu Jingting, no one in this world thinks that this is the finale, for Qianhong and the editors, the more chapters serialized in this issue of the magazine are just New Year's benefits for readers.
The story stopped at the knife raised by Hu Fei and came to an abrupt end, the editors were still faintly satisfied that they had wittily left such a big suspense, and the readers enthusiastically discussed whether the knife would be cut down, and how to arrange the Gu Yongsheng Conference.
Liu Jingting hurriedly called Yi Shui'an: "That's already the ending, didn't I mark it?" (to be continued......)
