Chapter 1045
"A Study of Sherlock Holmes' Scarlet Letters" is not very long, and it was quickly serialized.
For this work, the outside world has mixed reviews.
In fact, it was because of "The Da Vinci Code" that made X reality famous all over the world.
If an ordinary author had written "Sherlock Holmes", it is estimated that there would not be so many people picking bones in their eggs.
But who made Mr. X too famous?
In fact, to put it bluntly, if it is an ordinary person running a red light or something, I am afraid that not many people will be interested, but if it is a star, or a public figure, then this matter will be magnified countless times.
The first part of "Sherlock Holmes", the writing style, narrative style, etc., are completely different from "The Da Vinci Code".
For example, "The Da Vinci Code" is not outstanding in terms of narrative style, but the real strength of this work lies in the knowledge and story background used in it, the suspense and puzzles set in it, which are completely different from the works on the market.
And the first part of "Sherlock Holmes", "A Study of Scarlet Letters", is actually not so bizarre in terms of the case, and it is precisely this unique narrative style and reasoning method that is really attractive.
The mainstream direction of popular reasoning nowadays is that the protagonist view, many times, is to set off the protagonist and shape the protagonist through the case.
"Sherlock Holmes" is obviously of this type, highlighting the protagonist Sherlock Holmes, but in fact the case becomes the background color.
And the real attraction of "The Da Vinci Code" is not the main character, but the case.
The two are very different in this respect.
Therefore, "Sherlock Holmes" can be written as a series, while "The Da Vinci Code" can only exist as an individual.
"After the amazement of "The Da Vinci Code", Mr. X began to disappear from the public and returned to the ordinary, which is really disappointing. ”
"Sherlock Holmes Detective Case" is far less mysterious and exciting than "The Da Vinci Code", perhaps Mr. X is precisely because he knows that he can no longer write a wonderful case like "The Da Vinci Code", so he chooses to find another way to create a new work by changing the narrative method, but obviously everyone prefers to see bizarre cases rather than neurotic protagonists. ”
"The success of "The Da Vinci Code" has made X's reality begin to swell, he completely forgets the essence of suspenseful reasoning, and begins to return to the ordinary, and the dialogue and inexplicable narrative sequence throughout "A Study in Scarlet Letters" cannot hide the shallowness of the case in it, even if there is a neurotic Sherlock Holmes, it still cannot hide this fact. ”
......
Of course, there are negative reviews and there are naturally good reviews.
"The success of "The Da Vinci Code" lies in the fact that the author Mr. X integrates religious symbols, famous paintings, history, mathematics, etc. into one puzzle after another, but in fact, it gives people a sense of stiff filling, the unique narrative style of the first part of "Sherlock Holmes", "A Study in Scarlet Letters", the distinctive protagonist Sherlock Holmes, and the subversive narrative sequence, all make people shine, and the latter is obviously higher than the former in terms of text. ”
"I don't understand why so many people think that the core essence of suspenseful reasoning should be bizarre cases, I think it's the opposite, we all know that the more complex the case, the more complex the reasoning process, the greater the possibility of loopholes, and the worse the logical rationality, this is the case with "The Da Vinci Code", I think if it weren't for the implantation of those deliberately set up mysteries, "The Da Vinci Code" would be just an ordinary work, but "Sherlock Holmes" series, but it really captures the essence of suspenseful reasoning.
The case itself may not be complicated, but the process of reasoning is ingenious, isn't this a rare innovation? And I think many people are surprised that the murderer has been caught, and they have thrown themselves into the net, and the author can surprise the reader, isn't it the real ability of a reasoner?"
"In terms of knowledge, "The Da Vinci Code" can indeed be called the most suspenseful reasoning, but although "A Study of Blood Letters" is not long, but through the lines, we can see that the author Mr. X has a very thorough understanding of the historical background of the British Empire, which is also a kind of extensive knowledge that Mr. X shows to everyone. ”
Since the end of the Age of Discovery, the empire has lost its former glory, but has been overtaken by the little brother of North America, whether it is from the economic, military, political and other levels, and in terms of cultural export, North America's endless cultural celebrities can beat the former empire of the sunset.
For example, those best-selling authors who sell well in the world, the former empire on which the sun never sets, is also withering, and there is no one who can take advantage of it.
What is the reason why the previous "The Da Vinci Code" has been highly respected by countless people in Europe, and even surpassed the height in North America? Is it really because "The Da Vinci Code" is so wonderful?
There may be reasons for this, but it is more about the decline of European literature and art as a kind of remembrance of the rare emergence of the culture and art that Europe was once proud of.
To put it simply, they felt that the work was a tribute to Europe's once glorious history of culture and art.
As for "Sherlock Holmes", this can show that people with eyes can see it at once, this is a work that is very in line with the tradition of the empire on which the sun never sets.
The cultural background, historical background, and social background are all taken from the British Empire, and the protagonists and supporting characters in it are also from the British Empire.
This makes many people in England very happy and proud, because through this work, they can completely prove that Mr. X is a native of the British Empire, otherwise, how could he be so familiar with the social, historical and cultural background of the British Empire?
Even some of the behavior habits of the protagonists in many of them are very appropriate, doesn't that mean that Mr. X is a citizen of the British Empire?
So this time, the media on Fleet Street, which has always caught and bites whom, actually began to advocate that "Sherlock Holmes" is the most wonderful work ever written in the suspense and reasoning world.
Mr. X is extremely familiar with the history, culture, and social background of the British Empire, and he must be a citizen of the British Empire, and only a citizen of the British Empire can write such a work full of British style.
Even the British crown prince said in an interview with reporters that he liked "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" very much and wanted to get to know Mr. X.
What the British said this time, although many foreign media said that the former empire on which the sun never sets, can only find a little sense of existence from here.
But there is still nothing to refute the British claim that Mr. X was a citizen of the British Empire, or at least educated in the British Empire.
Because "Sherlock Holmes" is indeed a British work.
