Chapter 0160: The finale of Liancheng Jue
A new week has begun, and "Wuxia Weekly" was released on Monday as scheduled, publishing the eleventh chapter of "Liancheng Jue", "Building the Wall", and the twelfth chapter finale, "Great Treasure".
The sudden ending surprised the readers and stimulated their desire to buy.
In the streets and alleys of large and medium-sized cities in China, as long as "Wuxia Weekly" is placed on the stall, it will soon be swept away. Some people woke up late, only to find that they had sold out when they arrived, so they could only beg the stall owner to hurry up and buy a few more.
On the subway, at the bus station, in the library, you can see people sighing while reading "Wuxia Weekly" in their hands, and some people even secretly put the magazine on the desk of work and the desk of class, just to know Di Yun's fate in advance.
In fact, in the eleventh chapter "Building a Wall", most of the puzzles of "Liancheng Jue" have been solved, everyone's humanity is highlighted, Di Yun, Qi Fang, and the fate of the main characters are doomed.
Zhou Lin didn't like the last chapter of "The Great Treasure", in fact, in his previous life, when he first read "The Legend of the City", he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he thought that this book was not good.
Isn't it?
In terms of heroism, it is not as good as "Dragon Babu".
In terms of free and easy, it is not as good as "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
In terms of the magnificence of the scene, it is not as good as "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".
In terms of humor, it is not as good as "The Story of Deer and Ding".
In terms of chivalry, it is not as good as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Even if the plot is weird, it is not as good as Jin Yong's other short story "Snow Mountain Flying Fox".
In terms of sincerity, it seems that it is not as good as "White Horse Whistling West Wind".
After the age of 20, Zhou Lin once reread the complete works of Jin Yong, and felt a little different, and felt that "Liancheng Jue" was a little interesting.
When he was in his thirties, Zhou Lin reread "Liancheng Jue" again and finally discovered the benefits of this book.
When I was a teenager, I just watched the excitement. I watched heroes and heroes, watched fierce fights, and preferred to discuss which person's martial arts were the strongest and which chivalrous woman was the most beautiful.
Reading in his twenties, he has a value judgment. I read the story, and I prefer to read the national righteousness, chivalrous spirit, love and hatred in the book.
Reading in his thirties, the distinction between good and bad people is blurred in his eyes. What is good and what is bad, what is good and what is evil has become less clear. What I look at is fate, what I look at is character, and what I see is everyone's struggle and struggle under the fiddle of fate.
For some reason, Zhou Lin fell in love with this inconspicuous work among Jin Yong's many novels when he was thirty years old.
Therefore, people will change, young people don't know the taste of sorrow, young people disdain the taste of sorrow, and when they reach middle age, they are sad and have a deeper feeling for the joys and sorrows of fate in "Liancheng Jue", and finally understand the choice of each of them.
Good people and bad people, good people and evil people, true and false, love and hatred, in the end it is just a handful of loess and a dream.
And the last sentence of the whole novel, except for "White Horse Whistling West Wind", Zhou Lin remembers the most.
It seems that Di Yunyi's twists and turns of fate and joys and sorrows are all waiting for this sentence.
He left Jingzhou City, held the water spinach, and embarked on the journey. He doesn't want to mess around in the rivers and lakes anymore, he wants to find a deserted place out of the woods and raise water spinach to adulthood.
He returned to the snowy valley on the edge of Tibet. The goose-feather snow began to fall again, and we came to the cave of yesteryear.
Suddenly, I saw a young girl standing in front of the cave in the distance.
That's Shuisheng!
With a smile on her face, she ran to him and shouted, 'I've waited for you so long!' ’
……”
Like it or not, "The Legend of the City" is over.
A novel that pulled a dying third-rate magazine "Wuxia Weekly" to the sales level of a first-class magazine, and "Liancheng Jue" created a miracle in the martial arts circle.
Previously, when Yang Muxia nominated "Liancheng Jue" to enter the shortlist of Best Novel for this year's Chivalry Awards, some people scoffed.
They think that the story of "Liancheng Jue" is not very exciting, and the description is just ordinary, it can only be regarded as an excellent novel, and it is still far from winning the award.
As "Martial Arts Weekly" sells better and better, there are also some rumors in the market, saying that it is because of the overall quality of the weekly magazine that it will have its current results, and it is not the credit of "Liancheng Jue".
All kinds of rumors circulated, but Zhou Lin, one of the parties involved, didn't care at all.
He was talking to Geng Yunhe on the phone.
"Based on the current sales situation, 180,000 copies should be no problem. "Since the serialization of "Liancheng Jue", Geng Yunhe has brought good news first every time he calls Zhou Lin.
"Very good. Zhou Lin said lightly.
Geng Yunhe said a gratifying shì of sales, and suddenly changed the conversation and said: "Yesterday, several shareholders called me and asked about your situation, but I didn't say much. Now that "Liancheng Jue" has also been serialized, what are your plans?"
"It's very simple, just like I talked to you last time, put forward conditions. Zhou Lin said.
Geng Yunhe said: "Now that the sales are so good, the value of the weekly's shares has skyrocketed to several times as before, how can those guys be willing to take it out." ”
"Then let them see what I'm worth. Zhou Lin smiled.
Geng Yunhe also smiled, but he still said: "Anyway, you still have to make some appearance, right? Why don't you come to Shencheng on the weekend and talk to them, I think some people don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin." ”
Zhou Lin looked at the calendar, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I'll go on the weekend, and I will also visit everyone in the magazine by the way." ”
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Lin booked a round-trip ticket to fly back to Songjiang on Friday night and back to Songjiang on Sunday night.
After booking the ticket, he thought about it for a long time, and finally sent a text message on his mobile phone.
The recipient is Liu Tao.
"Sister Liu, I'm going to Shencheng on Friday night. ”
After sending it, the phone didn't receive a reply for a long time, and just when Zhou Lin thought that he wouldn't receive a reply, the phone finally vibrated with a buzz.
As soon as Zhou Lin grabbed his mobile phone, he saw that he had received a short message from Liu Tao.
"What are you going to do?"
He quickly replied: go and negotiate a contract.
"Does Shang Dao know?"
"I haven't informed him yet, but I want to go to the crew. ”
"Hmm. ”
After that, there was no more news, and Zhou Lin didn't know what she meant, and whether she could meet her, at least say sorry to her in person......
Friday happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, but unfortunately Zhou Lin couldn't spend it with his parents. He skipped the afternoon class and boarded the plane to the deep city.
flew all the way from the north of China to the southern tip of the country, stayed on the plane for more than four hours, and when Zhou Lin got off the plane, it was already evening.
Geng Yunhe was waiting at the exit of the airport, but the first thing Zhou Lin saw when he came out was Liu Tao standing in the crowd wearing sunglasses.
Liu Tao came to pick me up? Zhou Lin was really surprised and delighted. Thanks to the scarecrow, the wolf also 007 for the tip. I will leave for Harbin early tomorrow morning and come back next week. This period of time is updated regularly, if you have any questions, please leave a message in the book review area, and I will reply one by one when I come back.
