Chapter 25: The Tiger's Head

As a competitor, there is no magazine that does not want to dig up the seven nights. But what makes them depressed is that this Qiye really doesn't seem to care about fame and fortune at all, and he hasn't shown up until now.

And "Children's Literature and Art" is very strict about his information, and it is said that except for the two editors-in-chief, no one knows his specific situation. Just when they were crying out in vain, the opportunity came. This opportunity came from "Thumbelina".

The quality of "Thumbelina" strengthened their determination to find Seven Nights. But at the same time, the story also provided them with an idea. An idea to force out seven nights.

That's a long story. The children's literature market in country Z in the world is very similar to the previous life, that is, it is under the protection of the state. Children's literature that is a little out of line must be harmonized for the first time, and there is no room for negotiation. In this context, the development of children's literature can be imagined.

For decades, it has stayed in traditional popular science books such as the three-character classic, picture literacy, multiplication formulas, etc. In terms of expression, he did not dare to break through the modes of half-orcs and heroic deeds.

Although major magazines are committed to exploring the potential of children's literature and cultivating creative talents in this area. But you can't get rid of this shackle, and the effect is not obvious.

The sudden rise of "Shuk and Beta" is certainly amazing, but it still fails to break through the shackles of half-orcs in form. This is also the reason why Zhao Mingyuan did not dare to place a heavy bet at the beginning.

But this "Thumbelina" just broke this long-standing stereotype. This simply provides the best handle for competitors. If they don't take advantage of it, then they really deserve the name of businessman.

It would be best if you could force out seven nights. Even if they can't force him, it will be beneficial for them to collapse "Children's Literature and Art" or bring it back to its original form.

As a result, all kinds of negative reports about Seven Nights and "Thumbelina" filled everyone's ears for a while. There is a mountain rain that is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.

First appeared on the Cape Forum, a post titled: "The Business Miracle of Children's Literature".

As an insider, the poster 'inadvertently' revealed a little bit of "hype", "packaging" and the like. And praised it as the most perfect and successful business method of the early 21st century, enough to be in the textbooks.

The post did not say anything critical, but kept praising the mastery of 'children's literature'. But those who understand can see at a glance that the poster could not be the most vicious. Giving all the results to the hype completely negates the role of "Shuck and Beta" and "Thumbelina".

Netizens are not stupid, how can they not see the intention of the poster. But anyone who regularly surfs the Internet knows that netizens have a habit of finding pleasure in denying classics or authority.

As soon as everyone saw someone pointing their guns at the seven nights that were now half the sky, it was like a cat smelling fish, not to mention how excited they were.

In addition, the poster pretends to be an 'insider' everywhere, and his speech stops at the point, which makes many netizens itch.

Soon, similar voices appeared in the scarf and major forums. But at this time, praise still accounts for the majority. Everyone just thought that this post was just a very isolated phenomenon and would soon disappear into the sea of people.

But it didn't take long for critical posts to appear on the 'parent-child network', which is the largest gathering place for parents in the country.

"My child has to throw the cat away from the rat after watching "Shuck and Beta", what can I do?"

"After watching 'Shuck and Beta', my kids take their own snacks to the sewer every day to feed the mice, and I'm really worried. ”

If these are still in the normal category, then the following ones are full of gunpowder.

"Don't show your child 'Shuck and Beta'. Ever since I watched it, my kids have been throwing rocks everywhere and saying it's a beta cannon. ”

"The cat is the villain, the friend of man, and the mouse is the decent. The three views are ruined, how should I educate my children in the future. ”

It's not just "Shuck and Beta" that has been criticized, "Thumbelina" as another story has been fundamentally denied.

"Shuck and Beta are nothing but violence. The real problem is with Thumbelina. This story is alive and well to induce children to fall in love. ”

""Thumbelina" is still very unfilial, and the old couple is so good to her. She never thought about her mother after she went missing, and she never thought about finding the poor old couple. Filial piety comes first, our country has been preaching filial piety, I really don't know how such a story appeared in the magazine. ”

"How did such an obviously unhealthy story like 'Thumbelina' come to be in the magazine?

These messages came out of nowhere. One moment the screen was full of baby shows, and the next moment similar news appeared collectively.

Then there are people who keep replying to these posts to make sure they are in the most prominent position. And create an atmosphere of 'this is a universal phenomenon'.

As the 'Three Heroes of Children' and the three most famous artists in the fairy tale circle, Zheng Tianqing, Yao Wenyuan and Tangtang are naturally very concerned about the competitor of Qiye. I saw this story for the first time, and at the same time, I also saw the massive amount of negative news.

This time they were forced to fight with Seven Nights, and although they won in sales, they knew in their hearts that they had lost in terms of word of mouth. But they were not convinced. In their opinion, the reason for the loss was not that it was not as good as Seven Nights, but that the book was published too hastily. Give them enough time, and they'll definitely be able to write something comparable to Nanaya.

But after seeing "Thumbelina", they fell silent.

"How dare he do this? How could he dare to do this?" Yao Wenyuan looked at the magazine in his hand in disbelief, and unconsciously made a sound.

"Defy the world's condemnation and break stereotypes. I don't have that kind of courage. I wasn't convinced when I lost to him before, but now I do. Zheng Tianqing exclaimed.

"His courage is certainly admirable. But what I value more is the quality of this fairy tale. To be honest, even if the shackles of such a story are removed, I will not be able to write it for the rest of my life. Tangtang stretched out her Qianqian jade finger, gently stroked the words in the magazine, and exclaimed.

Mao Wensu, who saw this story for the first time, also looked shocked, and then laughed: Zhao Mingyuan, you are so carried away, you dare to serialize such a work, you are dying. You're done without me this time.

The media has not been idle either. As one of the most sensitive groups with a sense of smell, they also discovered the problem at the first time.

"'Thumbelina' has made a double breakthrough in terms of presentation and story content. Formally, it breaks through the shackles of the half-orcs. In terms of content, it is no longer a celebration of heroes, nor is it preachy. Break the reign of orcs and heroic deeds. It is an epoch-making work. ”

"Breaking the rules, is it bold to innovate or to be bold?"

"The first person to eat crabs ......"

And netizens who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic also followed suit and learned the news. When they know that someone has violated the ban and written an 'out-of-the-ordinary' work, the excitement is like being beaten with chicken blood.

"Children's literature has always been under special protection, breaking anyone's leg if they cross the line, without compromise. This would have been a good policy. But at the same time, it has also led to the fact that the fairy tale market has never been able to develop. Now someone has finally risen up, but I don't know what the end will be. ”

"I never read fairy tales before. Today, I went to see "Thumbelina". It can only be said that it is too classic. I hope the net can be opened, don't ban it. ”

"Those who cross the line will be killed, without exception. This man called Seven Nights is dead. This is called not dying if you don't die. ”

The spontaneous attention of netizens has made more people see Qiye, his fairy tales, and the magazine "Children's Literature and Art". Although the outside world is not optimistic about their future, the sales of "Children's Literature and Art" have reached a new high, achieving daily sales of more than 100,000 copies for the first time.

If it is placed in normal times, this data will definitely become a topic of scramble for many media reports. But now, no one cares about that. The goal of everyone's attention is the crossing of the line in "Thumbelina".

"There are so many works in your collection of stories, why did you choose Thumbelina? Even if you don't know about the violation, don't the magazines know about it?" Lin Baoer looked at Zhu Ziqing, who looked indifferent, and said angrily.

Zhu Ziqing looked at Lin Bao'er in a daze, and the little girl's appearance was very different from usual, which made him obsessed.

"Hey, I'm talking to you. ”

"I didn't think of this before, but Wei Zhixing told me, and I realized that it is difficult to publish such works. Still, they decided to serialize the story. Most of their families are not afraid of their big business, what am I afraid of. ”

"Why are they doing this, aren't they afraid of being punished from above?"

"It's a temptation. Last year, the state issued a document stating that it is necessary to vigorously develop the cause of science and education and realize the prosperity and development of national culture. But until now, there has been no action in the fairy tale world. They wanted to use this story to test the reaction. ”

In fact, Zhao Mingyuan didn't tell Zhu Ziqing that most of the reason why they made this gamble was because they were stimulated by "Children's Literature and Art". After only a few days of being the first place, he was kicked down, who was very unconvinced.

But the other party's deep connections are not at all what the current "Children's Literature and Art" can fight against. So I came up with such a radical approach. Use this temptation to deepen the attention of the above to him, and wait for an opportunity to seek an umbrella.

Of course, Zhao Mingyuan and they are not stupid. I've been working for magazines for so many years, and I know some people above me. If something happens, there is no problem with self-preservation. What's more, they had already heard the wind beforehand. There is also an intention to loosen the regulation of the children's literature market.

Everything is risky, even with so many guarantees, Zhao Mingyuan and Wei Zhixing's hearts are still held high. I'm afraid that something will happen.
