Lin Tiange has just turned 20 this year and is a sophomore majoring in history at a prestigious university in southwest China.

Lin Tiange wears a pair of thick glasses, quiet and quiet, whether in the class or in the dormitory, his sense of existence is infinitely close to zero, usually going to dinner with classmates or roommates, when counting the number of people, other people often have "Oh yes, and Lin Tiange" This kind of abruptness.

In fact, as early as when he entered the school, he began to serve as the propaganda committee of the class, and won the first prize in the competition of the school's hand-copied newspaper in the second semester of his freshman year.

Brother Lian Ren is not a scholar, but he has the same hobby as a scholar - going to the library, at this point, he is even crazier than the scholars, as long as there is no class, he basically spends time in the library, and on weekends he can stay in the library with bread and water.

If everyone has something to look for him, they don't need to call, they don't need to ask his roommates, they can just go to the library to find someone, so "Lin Tiange is in the library" has also become an important symbol of him.

However, Lin Tiange didn't go to the library all to read books, sometimes he would write things, in a quiet and uninhabited corner of the library, he took out a thick notebook and pen, and wrote for half a day.

Some of these texts can appear in the catalogs of certain newspapers and magazines, and most of them are destined to be locked in the bottom drawer of the dormitory.

"Qingyu Pharmacist" was completed in the library, which is another story.

Lin Tiange was one of Gu Yongsheng's earliest readers. Since "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua", I have been paying attention to this writing form of combining history and martial arts to write novels, and I have also imitated and written several articles to "Dajianghu" and some other youth magazines, but in the end they were all lost in the sea.

At that time, it coincided with the strong rise of Gu Yongsheng. Even famous writers such as Beihetang, Broken Knife, and Qin Se were beaten to the point that they were powerless, not to mention a newcomer who imitated it.

Of course, Lin Tiange had grievances, and once thought that he would not meet talents, and this kind of failure was because Gu Yongsheng occupied too many propaganda resources of the same type, and he once published a review article in the school newspaper, criticizing the hype model of "Dajianghu", Qianhong and Gu Yongsheng, and believed that this propaganda model of "all resources smashed into one person" was a self-extinction of martial arts novels. It is detrimental to the development of the whole genre.

Later, Gu Yongsheng was rumored to have started writing online articles, and Lin Tiange once felt that he was really a god prediction, but the summary article was not finished yet. Gu Yongsheng has already started serializing "Book Sword".

At this point, Lin Tiange finally realized that his resentment was due to his jealousy of Gu Yongsheng in the final analysis, and after adjusting his mentality, he wrote this "Qingyu Pharmacist" and submitted it to Gu Yongsheng's new magazine "Craftsman Record".

Lin Tiange, who loves to read. He has a good ability to judge literature. The so-called book is read a hundred times, and its meaning is self-revealed, this ancient saying is by no means casual, so as soon as this short story was written, he faintly felt that he should be able to enter the eyes of Gu Yongsheng.

Sure enough, after only waiting for a week, the editor Tiandao Youchang left a message for himself: "The manuscript "Qingyu Pharmacist" has been reviewed by the editor-in-chief and is ready to be hired. ”

Received the news. Lin Tiange was eating in the cafeteria, after confirmation. He jumped straight out of his chair and shouted, "It's done!" and the joy was even greater than receiving a college letter.

The next thing made him even more excited, and after replying to the editor's message, news immediately came from there, saying that the editor-in-chief Gu Yongsheng personally explained that he would focus on cultivating the author of "Pavilion in the Sky", and asked him to prepare to change "Qingyu Pharmacist" into a long story.

Gu Yongsheng personally explained?

Focus on training?

Changed to a long one?

Publishing a novel?

These thoughts came and went in his head, and he almost danced with his hands.

"This Gu Yongsheng is really discerning, it seems that I used to underestimate him......"

Then Gu Yongsheng promoted his new book on his personal Weibo, and this encouragement is worth 10,000 gold!

As early as when Gu Yongsheng announced the magazine, he began to pay attention to the relevant news, he knew what kind of lineup the first issue of "Craftsman Record" was, in addition to Gu Yongsheng's two serials, there were also top best-selling authors such as Han Shuo and Yi Shui'an, he was a newcomer, and he was very satisfied with being able to appear in a magazine at the same time with these famous figures, and it had exceeded expectations, and as a result, Gu Yongsheng actually recommended his work personally.

The joy of being unable to fall asleep, the excitement of laughing when eating and walking.

"Finally waited for this day! Finally did it! Finally it was me!"

After the ecstasy, he was naturally ashamed, he never thought that the person he once wrote to attack was actually the person he was most grateful to now, he wrote in his diary that day:

"Gu Yongsheng, a writer destined to be great, has now become my Bole, a person can write and edit both identities to the extreme, then I can only call him God, Gu Yongsheng can afford the title of 'ancient god', in addition to seeing the value of my novel, he also told me one thing, there is no real talent in this world, as long as you are really talented, you will always wait for that opportunity, here, I want to apologize for the previous criticism of the ancient god, from beginning to end, he has actually been the person I want to thank!

I will always remember this day!"

After that, Lin Tiange got the most generous manuscript fee in his life, but after experiencing Gu Yongsheng's microblog, he had calmed down a lot, first called his parents to report the news, told them that the tuition fee for the next year had been settled, and then went to buy a new dress and a new pair of shoes.

After the release of the first issue of "Craftsman's Record", the Pavilion in the Sky really attracted the attention of many people, and Lin Tiange also really felt Gu Yongsheng's influence.

Of course, things can't be smooth all the time, after getting the request of Tiandao Youchang to "write a long article", Lin Tiange has been making relevant preparations, but the few openings and outlines that have been handed over have been rejected.

"Books are written for readers, not to please editors and editors. Think again. ”

This was the most stern reply from Heavenly Dao Youchang, which made Lin Tiange's heart chill, but then Heavenly Dao Youchang conveyed Gu Yongsheng's words: "Your historical knowledge is very rich. Common sense is also very detailed, but it is important to remember that history is just a nail in the nail of a novel, and cannot be a trap to limit one's hands and feet, so you must let go of your hands and feet, and be fully confident in the world you have constructed. ”

This sentence made Lin Tiange suddenly brightened, and what Gu Yongsheng said was right. In the process of writing, he has always been confined to the facts and shrunk his hands, and the characters he has created for himself. Even the protagonist lacks enough self-confidence.,I feel that there is no such person in history.,This historical event is not involved in this person at all.,Often write and start to doubt yourself.。 It feels like I'm talking nonsense.

Writing articles is the most taboo to be unconfident.

Fiction is the craft of fiction. As long as it can make sense in terms of artistic logic, the story itself can be self-consistent, and it does not have to be completely based on facts. Lin Tiange has read countless books, so he naturally understands this truth, but when theory and practice are combined, he seems relatively unfamiliar, and he may not be 100% convinced by those theories, at this time, Gu Yongsheng reminded him. He was enlightened.

After all, at this point. Gu Yongsheng has full right to speak.

Lin Tiange, who already has a certain talent and rich accumulation, can be said to be able to understand it at all, and the new outline and new opening he drew up are really bold and arbitrary, and those highlights in the short story return one by one.

The magazine quickly responded: "Serialize first, then publish." ”

……

Chang Youdao told Lin Tiange that the magazine should focus on cultivating him, not a polite conversation between the editor and the author, and the new "Craftsman's Record" can cultivate a representative newcomer and greatly stimulate the enthusiasm of other writers.

In order to make way for Lin Tiange, Gu Yongsheng decisively decided to stop the serialization of "Book of Swords and Enmity" after the third issue, and prepared to publish the book, which not only made room for Lin Tiange, but also because Gu Yongsheng always insisted on shortening the serialization as much as possible, which could not only allow readers to spend less money, but also allow them to see the complete story as soon as possible.

In this regard, Gu Yongsheng has almost a full reputation in the industry.

Publishing a book after serialization is tantamount to earning readers double money, as a top best-selling author, you can have this kind of trade-off, which shows the maintenance of readers.

Gu Yongsheng's announcement that the entire book of "Book and Sword Enmity" will be released soon, which is undoubtedly another big news in the publishing industry, which will inevitably disrupt the plans of some publishing houses.

Including the first part of Xue Muliang's five-part series, "Paper Windmill of Year Rings", it almost became cannon fodder, and Dingshi Culture and Yellow River Literature and Art have basically determined the release time, but Gu Yongsheng came to such a news coldly, which made Xue Muliang a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

Needless to say, the embarrassment is because if you choose to avoid, you can't put down your face, and if you don't choose to avoid, you may not be able to put your face down even more.

Xue Muliang was very familiar with this situation, but he was in Gu Yongsheng's position before.

Naturally, if you retreat, you won't say it, so you can only make a specific date ambiguously for the time being, and replace it with "in the near future".

……

Similar to the situation every time a book was released before, the listing of "Book of Swords and Enmity" once again set off a whirlwind among readers, but what everyone didn't expect was that this time it was not the novel that created a sales miracle, but Gu Yongsheng who completely aroused the anger of readers!

"Huo Qingtong failed to marry Chen Jialuo!"

"Chen Jialuo gave his beloved Princess Xiangxiang to the unbearable Qianlong Emperor!"

"Princess Xiangxiang died in the end, !! Xiangxiaoyu"

The first reader to read the whole book spoiled the ending with great grief and hatred, and after that, he did not make any specific book reviews, leaving a sentence: "This book has been burned, and I will never read Gu Yongsheng again!"

Other readers who read the novel came to leave messages one after another, expressing their dissatisfaction with Gu Yongsheng with hatred.

From "Seven Swords Under the Heavenly Mountain" to the present, Gu Yongsheng has been challenging the bottom line of readers, and now that the green hats have appeared, what kind of mentality do you have?"

"Princess Xiangxiang is dead or not, I don't care, I don't care if Chen Jialuo is a green hat or not, but I want to ask, what's wrong with Huo Qingtong? Is Chen Jialuo a secondary school or a brain-dead? Or do you really think we won't give up on you? I think this is no longer a simple need for the plot of the novel, but a thorough teasing of our readers by the author Gu Yongsheng!"

""Seven Swords", "White Hair", "Sea of Clouds", "White Horse", "Yue Girl" to today's "Book Sword", I always thought that Gu Yongsheng would care about the feelings of our readers, even once, but it turns out that I am too self-righteous, I watch martial arts for blood, in order to find a story that makes me passionate, not to find abuse, forget it, please Gu Yongsheng continue his performance, forgive me for not accompanying me again. ”

"Gu Yongsheng makes up first-class stories, but he writes about the real end of feelings, not to mention those novels that are abused for the sake of abuse, even another batch of "Xiao Shiyi Lang" and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" do not give you a complete love story, what does this mean, it shows that Gu Yongsheng doesn't know how to write feelings at all. ”
