"ARE YOU STILL OBSESSED WITH 'THUMBELINA'? "Seven Nights Fairy Tale The Ugly Duckling" is coming, are you ready?"

"The first comic of the new teenage fairy tale writer Seven Nights, the warm masterpiece "My Neighbor Totoro" will meet you on October 30. Will you come?"

"Seven Nights, determined to create the first collection of fairy tales in country Z. ”

Such reports appeared overnight in major domestic media, bombarding the eyes of the audience in turn.

It was in the midst of this uproar that the latest issue of Children's Literature was finally released. People who want to wear it have crowded to the bookstore, and in some areas, they know that they have formed a small ** to buy books.

This usually only happens when a well-known author publishes a book. But now it's the first time it's happened in a magazine. Many bookstore owners are dumbfounded.

In this issue, there are a total of three stories of Seven Nights. "Shuke and Beta" is naturally indispensable as a long-form serial. But this animation can't change its half-orc nature in a wonderful way, and everyone doesn't pay much attention to it. What really makes people curious are the next two, "The Ugly Duckling" and "My Neighbor Totoro".

These two are the second of the 'legendary' fairy tales of the Seven Nights. Its success marks whether this collection of stories is a joke or a classic. The other one is more topical, it is not only the first manga of Seven Nights, but also because of this comic, the identity is exposed.

Originally, Zhu Ziqing was going to serialize "Cinderella" in this issue, and then serialize "Pea Girl" in the next issue. And so on, put together the works about so-and-so girl that I saw in my previous life. Compose a Girl Series.

But because those sunspots grasped the unfilial piety of "Thumbelina". made him have to change his plan and released the inspirational story of "The Ugly Duckling". Zhu Ziqing is full of confidence in this story.

"The Ugly Duckling" is a work by Hans Christian Andersen, and it has been highly praised in his previous life. Known as a portrayal of the author's life, this title gives the story a deeper meaning. Of course, there is no such stalk in this life. But with the quality of this story itself, Zhu Ziqing believes that it will be able to conquer everyone just like in his previous life.

As for "My Neighbor Totoro", it was even more famous in the world in his previous life. It was originally an anime film produced by the Ghibli Company. The film was included in the list of greats and was named the best animated film of all time. And Totoro, the protagonist of this movie, is also considered the greatest cartoon character in the history of animation.

In China, because of this comic, an animal was renamed again. This is also the only time in the history of anime.

Later, this animated movie was adapted into a comic book and sold, and Zhu Ziqing first watched the comic version, and then went back to watch the movie. After reading it, there were only four words left in his mind: worthy of the name.

Wei Zhixing asked him to talk about comics, and the first thing he thought of was this story. He also believes that this story can fully support the comic section of "Children's Literature and Art".

The first to bring him good news was "The Ugly Duckling," which received a review full of praise that night. This time it was Luo Hongmian who published a book review:

"The Ugly Duckling is a children's book with fairy tales and fables. ”

Luo Hongmian set a very high tone for this story at the beginning.

"This story tells the story of a swan egg that broke its shell in a flock of ducks, and because of its strange appearance, it was despised by its kind, and after a lot of hardships and tribulations, it grew into a white swan. ”

The second sentence is a brief spoiler, but it is very standard and does not reveal any specific content. What follows, of course, is a whole bunch of analytical words. At the end of the book review, she concludes:

This story tells us that as long as you have ideals, pursuits, and work hard for this goal, it doesn't matter even in adversity, "gold will always shine." Setbacks and pains in life are inevitable, and we can only face them strongly.

Everyone will have a dream of their own, as long as they learn to set life goals, in self-confidence and hard work, they will truly realize that they can also become a "white swan", and they can also realize their dreams like an ugly duckling.

This fairy tale is a perfect blend of educational and fun, perfect for children to read. But adults won't be naïve in the slightest when they read it. It is another work suitable for all ages. ”

It can be said that since the appearance of the girl "Thumbelina". Luo Hongmian has been paying attention to the writer Qiye. When the black seven nights were set off on the Internet, she was still secretly anxious. For fear that he would be affected, a fairy tale master would fall like this.

What she didn't expect was that things were so dramatic, and word of mouth turned around overnight. It's just that what she didn't expect was that Nanaya was actually a high school student.

But it is precisely because of this that she admires this author even more. Especially after knowing that he also wrote songs for his teacher, he simply liked it to the core.

So I bought a copy of "Children's Literature" as soon as it went on sale. When she saw the story of "The Ugly Duckling", her heart completely went into her stomach. Someone who can write such a story will not be defeated by mere gossip.

Just when Zhu Ziqing was secretly happy, he inadvertently saw a book review on the Internet that made him dumbfounded: "Ugly duckling, silent counterattack." ”

"The Ugly Duckling is not just an inspirational fairy tale, it's also a confession of Seven Nights and a counterattack against those with malicious intentions.

While Seven Nights has created miracles, it has also offended countless people. Unable to defeat him head-on, the men began to snipe at him in a down-to-earth manner.

"Shuck and Beta" preaches violence, "Thumbelina" encourages unfilial piety, and what a ridiculous thing it is. According to their logic, I made a cursory observation, and 99.999 percent of the books in China are not suitable for children. Even "Cihai" has some words that are not suitable for children's eyes.

But such ridiculous words almost ruined a genius writer, and almost destroyed a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy's perception of the world. It can be imagined how much psychological pressure he endured when everyone was used by people with ulterior motives to attack him in groups.

Fortunately, not only was he not defeated by the gossip, but he completed his transformation through this. wrote a deep story like "The Ugly Duckling".

The ugly duckling who has fallen into the mundane is Qiye, and the chickens, ducks and geese who laugh at him are those who have ulterior motives. Seven Nights uses objects as metaphors to express accusations and contempt for people with ulterior motives.

And the ugly duckling did not change his original intention after setbacks, and finally became a white swan. It is also a metaphor for the seven nights that have completed a spiritual sublimation after this ordeal.

We are happy for the growth of Seven Nights, but we are not at all grateful to those who have ulterior motives. On the contrary, we hate you even more. It is because of you that there is so much injustice and sin in this world. ”

Seeing this comment, Zhu Ziqing felt dumbfounded. Which god wrote this book review, this association ability is too strong. This is simply more dramatic than Mr. Lu Xun's "good night" meme. If he knew that this story had been written a long time ago, he didn't know how he would feel.

However, for such a misunderstanding, Zhu Ziqing is very happy to hear it. Naturally, he wouldn't be stupid enough to come out and explain. At the same time, he also sent the link to this post to Zhao Mingyuan and Wei Zhixing. I'm sure the two of them will know what to do when they see it.

looked at the poster, it was a netizen named Liu Xiaoping. Zhu Ziqing didn't think much about it, but silently kept the name in his heart.

Close the search page and go to the official website of "Children's Literature and Art". It was his first time here. The design of the website takes the simple route, and the theme background is cartoon style.

What he didn't expect was that there was a hyperlink in the most eye-catching place on the homepage of the official website, and the name was: Seven Nights Fairy Tale.

Seven Nights Fairy Tale, as the name suggests, is a place specially prepared for the fairy tales of Seven Nights, and it can also be seen as a gathering place for fans of Seven Nights Fairy Tales.

It is temporarily divided into three sections: Shuke and Beta, Seven Nights Fairy Tale Collection, and My Neighbor Totoro. It seems that each story or collection of stories is a section.

Clicked into the Shuke and Beta section and browsed a few posts at random. There are parents who exchange reading experiences, there are those who speculate on the follow-up plot, and there are those who share their experiences with their children. But Zhu Ziqing found that most of the people gathered here were parents, and there were very few non-parents.

With a move in his heart, he clicked on the Seven Nights Fairy Tale Collection section again, and finally confirmed his thoughts. Most of those who don't have children, but love fairy tales themselves, gather here. So the atmosphere here is even more lively.

Although this section says that it is a collection of fairy tales of the Seven Nights, you can see opinions about Shuke, Beta, and My Neighbor Totoro everywhere. Even Zhu Ziqing found the footprints of his fans here. Although he doesn't have many fans, every single one is precious.

Thinking of his fans, Zhu Ziqing felt quite guilty. I put five songs on it and never appeared again. These people like it silently but don't get a response. Now an official organization has finally been found. Although it is not a dedicated fan forum, it is much stronger than before.

Although he felt sorry for them, he really didn't have the interest in letting him come forward to organize. After all, in his plans, singing was just a hobby. The literary world is his main battlefield. You can't put the cart before the horse.

So many netizens gathered here, and naturally they won't just revolve around Qiye. There are also those who share their hearts. There are also those who have written their own stories and brought them here for review. What to eat and drink, fitness and beauty, military affairs, and everything from the past to the present. Zhu Ziqing found that this place was about to become a small forum.

I went to the Totoro section again, and it was not surprising that it was much more deserted here. "My Neighbor Totoro" takes the warm route and relies on sincere feelings to move people. This kind of story is the most slow-burning. What's more, most of the serialized in this issue are trivial matters between sisters, which is a bit boring in the eyes of many people.

And the real protagonist of the story, Totoro, has just appeared, and this issue is over. The wonderful part has not yet appeared. In addition, this story has not yet gathered popularity on the first day of serialization. Naturally, the section is a little deserted.

Looking at these three sections, Zhu Ziqing was still quite excited. At this time, he truly realized the change in his identity. He is no longer the unknown Zhu Ziqing, but the well-known fairy tale writer Qiye.
