Chapter 0185: The Possibility of the Chivalry Award

Businessmen are hypocritical, and businessmen in the cultural circle are especially hypocritical, which was discovered by Zhou Lin after being in the literary and artistic circle for a period of time in his previous life.

For the sake of money, there are many people in the cultural circle.

Those who are rich and abandon their wives are also many in the cultural circle.

is full of benevolence and morality, and there are countless men and women who steal and prostitutes in secret, and there are countless in the cultural circle.

I'm not afraid that hooligans can do martial arts, but I'm afraid that hooligans are educated, this is what Zhou Lin often said when he was with friends in his previous life.

Liu Wenhu is obviously a typical cultural businessman.

At first, he thought that Zhou Lin was a newcomer, and kept saying that he would be banned, but after Zhou Lin's "Liancheng Jue" became popular, he was the first to see the wind and turn the rudder and let Zhu Zifeng follow Zhou Lin.

Now that I see Zhou Lin, he is also full of admiration for a long time, and the intimacy is like two people who have not seen each other for many years.

Liu Wenhu is not so affectionate with all authors, if the author's book loses money, he will definitely not hear even a word of encouragement from his mouth, and he will be deducted part of the royalties.

But in front of the best-selling author, he always has a warm smile on his face, and the strength of the cold and warm is nostalgic for the seven aunts and eight aunts he met when he came home for the New Year, and he almost asked the last sentence "How much is the salary, do you have a girlfriend, when do you plan to get married and have children".

Zhou Lin also hypocritically greeted Liu Wenhu.

"I arranged a celebration party, Mr. Chapel?" Liu Wenhu invited, "I can just talk about "Blasphemy" and "Celebrating More Than Years". ”

Zhou Lin nodded. How Liu Wenhu's character is not in his scope of consideration, judging from the publication of "Zhu Xian" this time, Chunwen Publishing House is very powerful, whether it is the production capacity or the sales channel is the top in the publishing circle, and cooperating with them can maximize the benefits.

Since Liu Wenhu is interested, Zhou Lin doesn't mind handing over "Blasphemy" and "Celebrating More Than Years" to Chunwen Publishing House, of course, provided that his conditions are met.

Yang Muxia on the side suddenly said: "I just don't have a place to rub dinner......

Zhou Lin was speechless, and said in his heart, how do you always say that you are also the editor-in-chief of the supplement of "Culture Daily", or a professor at Pingjing University, a well-known figure in the literary circle, who believes that you say that there is no place to have dinner?

Liu Wenhu immediately understood, and said with a smile on his face: "It would be great if Professor Yang could also participate in our celebration banquet, welcome, welcome!"

On the way to the celebration banquet, Zhou Lin couldn't help but ask Yang Muxia: "Professor Yang, are you really missing a meal?"

Yang Muxia smiled and asked rhetorically: "Let me ask you, are you interested in winning the Chivalry Award?"

Zhou Lin was stunned: "Is there any internal logical relationship between your question and the question I just asked?"

"You answer me first. Yang Muxia said.

Zhou Lin thought for a while and said, "It's false to say that I don't want to." ”

Who wouldn't want to win a knight award for writing martial arts novels?

The Chivalry Award is in the martial arts circle, that is, the annual event of the Billboard is for singers, the Oscars are for actors, the Golden Microphone Award is for hosts, the Nobel Prize is for scientists, and the Pulitzer Prize is for journalists, which is the highest honor.

If you haven't won the Knight Award, you can't be called a master.

The reason why the four masters of today's martial arts circle, Guo Weisi, Jin Rumeng, Gu Tianfeng and Gongsun Bai are called the "Four Heavenly Kings", is because they have won the best feature of the Chivalry Awards in the past ten years, and they can't hold other martial arts authors up.

A while ago, Yang Muxia nominated "Liancheng Jue" as a candidate for the Best Novel Award for the Chivalry Award, and Zhou Lin was very grateful, but he was not completely sure.

After all, it is "Liancheng Jue", if Zhou Lin originally copied "Tianlong Babu", "Smiling Proud Jianghu", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" or "Deer and Ding Ji", as long as the judges of the Chivalry Award are not blind, this award is his.

But "Liancheng Jue" did not receive much attention in Jin Yong's martial arts novels in the previous life, and even some people didn't know that this was Jin Yong's novel.

In terms of length, it is only less than 200,000 words, and in the martial arts world, where hundreds of thousands of words are in power, it can only be barely regarded as a novel.

In terms of plot, it is not a twist and turn, and it is not as novel as Gu Tianfeng, who is good at combining mystery novels and martial arts novels.

Essay pen, this novel is a rare white sketch in Jin Yong's novels, and the text is simple, such as Guo Weisi, who uses gorgeous words, is much inferior.

In terms of characters, Di Yun as the protagonist was robbed of great limelight by Ding Dian, is the heroine Shui Sheng or Qi Fang? Reading the whole novel, what is more memorable is the love between Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua.

In terms of heroism, Di Yun is probably the most lacking heroic protagonist in Jin Yong's novels, and compared to Jin Rumeng, who is especially good at large-scale scenes, it also lacks a little meaning.

No matter how you look at it, "Liancheng Jue" is only possible to win, but the grasp is not great, and Zhou Lin didn't take it to heart.

In his opinion, the Knight's Award will be won sooner or later, but not this year, but next year. He will copy at least two martial arts next, and he has already booked next year's knight award.

But if the judges of the Knight's Award really awarded this year's Knight's Award to themselves, Zhou Lin wouldn't mind.

""Liancheng Jue" is good, and I like it very much, but it is very difficult to win this year's knight award. Yang Muxia said.

"This year's most popular is Jin Rumeng's "Heaven and Earth Chess Soul", followed by Guo Weisi's "That Year the Rivers and Lakes Rain", your "Liancheng Jue" can only tie for third place with Gu Tianfeng's "There is an Inn Murder Case". Yang Muxia then analyzed, "And the judges of the Chivalry Award are all veterans in the martial arts circle, and they have a good relationship with Jin Rumeng, Guo Weisi, and Gu Tianfeng, why should they award the award to an author who they don't know whether they are male or female, or how old they are?"

"To sum up, the chances of you getting the Best Novel Award are zero. Yang Muxia closed the coffin and concluded.

"Professor Yang, are you saying so much just to hit me?" Zhou Lin couldn't laugh or cry.

Even Xu Yunyue, who had been sitting next to her and seemed to understand what they were talking about, was a little confused, and didn't understand what kind of medicine Yang Muxia was talking about in the gourd.

Yang Muxia said with a smile: "The Chivalry Award is not only one award, in addition to the best feature, there are many other awards. Short stories, novellas, new concepts, and newcomer awards...... You don't have much hope for the long-form award, why don't you try the Best Newcomer Award? I think Liu Wenhu is also very willing for you to win the Knight's Award, this is a big publicity gimmick, and it is a huge boost to your book sales. ”

"Can Liu Wenhu help?" Zhou Lin understood a little.

Yang Muxia said: "Chunwen Publishing House is also a big club in the industry, and it has a wide range of contacts in this area. I've already nominated for "Liancheng Jue", so it's hard to participate again. The matter of the Best Newcomer Award, I will mention it to Liu Wenhu later. ”

Zhou Lin took a deep breath: "Professor Yang, thank you so much!"

Yang Muxia smiled: "Then remember to deliver the manuscript on time!"
