Chapter 178: One Year
Chapter 178 of the main text volume for one year
Next chapter
Jin Yong's creative process has two leaps.
"White Horse" and "Mandarin Duck Knife" are in the first place, while "Yue Nu Sword" is in the latter time.
Based on the huge amount of reading in depth and breadth, the old gentleman can calmly comment on two sentences, but the average reader is not lightly shocked.
Some time ago, because of "White Horse", I began to pay attention to the "Xiaobao" of Shen Zhe's martial arts works, which is representative.
"Each of the three martial arts short stories has its own characteristics and distinct themes. β
"The plot of "White Horse" is not twisty enough, but there is foreshadowing everywhere, and the main line is based on everyone's evil feelings from beginning to end, which is moving......"
"Mandarin Duck Knife" is funny and moving, heroes in the rivers and lakes, all of them are funny, and the text is ridiculous. The whole story is full of comedy, and it can still be unconventional at the end, not to mention the genre of martial arts, which may be rare in the entire history of works......"
"The most surprising thing is the ultra-short 'martial arts novel' of "Yue Nu Sword", the last overlord was born in the Spring and Autumn Wuyue hegemony, plus the first beauty recorded in history, which is the wonderful background; dozens of allusions come at hand, scattered in the article of just 10,000 words, and they can be integrated, which shows Shen Da's familiarity with historical materials; the most wonderful thing is the interpretation of a naΓ―ve, free-range girl A Qing with a divine sword...... Of course, Shen Da is still Shen Da, and it has always been unexpected, and it has been handed down for thousands of years, and it has produced a sour taste when it is read, and I unconsciously hugged Ah Qing with a grievance......"
"I have long heard that although Shen Zhe's works are excellent, they are also the number one domestic author. β
"The big response is the "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" series, the landlord once didn't believe that the author in his twenties can interpret history so deeply, if you read the use of allusions in "Yue Nu Sword", maybe everyone will suddenly realize. β
The post, titled "A Model and Commentary on the Combination of Story and History", was originally placed on a fiction forum.
Then it was discovered by a deputy moderator of Storytelling.com, and then forwarded to his own section.
Short stories still have limitations.
In the past two years, the concentration of network information and netizens has squeezed the development space of small forums to the point that it is almost difficult to survive, so the influence of posts posted on small forums and storytelling networks is very different.
Therefore, martial arts fans who are looking forward to Shen Zhe's next feature work seem to have reacted.
"If you don't read it three times, you're not qualified to comment!"
"After reading the post, the landlord went to review it again, and as Xiaobao said, it is better for Shen to write a short story......"
"Otherwise, it feels like you're exploring a new path?"
"I finally know why Shen Da spans several fields, because he has not yet developed his own creative style. As we all know, an author's style is determined, and although he will soon enter the peak of his creation, he will also lose a lot of surprises. In other words, if you calculate carefully, Shen Da should be over twenty years old this year, could it be that he has already decided to focus on the field of martial arts in the future?"
"Scared, really?"
"Wouldn't we have a good time?"
"What about "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"? This is only the fourth part, and it is obvious that the whole Ming Dynasty has not been written. β
on the phone.
Sun Changqing: "My old man is a little faintly looking forward to it!"
Peng Yue: "Mr. Sun also thinks that after a few short explorations, his creation is about to enter a blowout period?"
"Is there any other explanation?"
Well, these short stories have different techniques, but they have one thing in common, from a simple plot to a plot and characters to a common push. Although the text tends to be popularized, it is also highly condensed, and I try to imitate a paragraph, and I feel that the difficulty does not decrease but increases......"
Sun Changqing: "The difficulty of writing has increased, and the difficulty of reading has decreased?"
ββ¦β¦ Right. β
"Tsk, this kid is amazing! When will your new work come out?"
"Heh, wait for your children's work to come out, see how it goes, I see that the one over there is also waiting. β
β¦β¦
Martial arts fans and the industry are looking forward to Shen Zhe's new work.
At this time, "Oriental" revealed a notice:
Academics are important, and the pen is temporarily closed
Shen Zhe's sentence attached at the end of the series did not attract too many readers' attention at first, and he continued to guess the next movement, and he suddenly became hotly discussed from somewhere.
"Twenty-year-old pen is funny. β
"It can't be true, right?"
ββ¦β¦ I'm still not convinced, what does it mean to put your studies first?"
"Shen University is in college. β
"Excuse! I've been reading this for a year, and now I remember that my studies are important, and I don't accept this reason!"
At this time, the martial arts world, and even the entire world, suddenly discovered, why are there so many martial arts lovers?
Netizens who dived and read silently became noisy.
Someone suddenly called out "ah" in a dormitory on a college campus, "Why, didn't you say that the peak of creation is coming?"
A certain retiree frowned and remained silent.
After a big class at Yan University, the old professor called Shen Zhe to the front and asked, "Need to rest?"
"Ah, no, ready to swim...... Study. β
The old professor frowned and expressed his dissatisfaction: "You can write a few strokes when you go abroad, and if you don't have anything to write, you can seal the pen and send any notices randomly!"
Shen Zhe smiled bitterly: "It's not very convenient, besides, I'm a little tired." β
"Well, yes, it's two years of studying abroad......, right?
Han Qigong of the Literary Association called: "A few short stories have not been quite right recently, and the original style has encountered a bottleneck?"
Even Shen Zhe discovered that so many people had unknowingly become martial arts lovers.
In this case, the magazine came forward to make a statement.
"Over the past year, we have dedicated seven martial arts works to everyone, and in any respect, Shen Zhe is a prolific author. Moreover, the author himself is in a critical period of his life, and he should and must focus on completing his studies, so the decision to temporarily suspend writing was deliberate. Of course, the unfinished "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" will be released in the next few months......"
"In addition, there is good news that there is still a full-length martial arts work that will be opened in October before the temporary suspension of creation. β
"It's the end of the draft. β
As soon as the statement came out, the fans cheered.
"How many more are there in "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", can you reveal them in advance?"
"If you don't watch martial arts, it's none of my business. β
Martial arts fans are also comforted, and at least one longer story can be cooked.
β¦β¦
This year, Shen Zhe locked himself up on campus, but there were still a few things related to him.
At the end of August, the fifth part of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was launched.
At the same time, the pseudo-"Weiming Lake" was completed and quickly became a new scene of Yanda.
This small lake is very different from the famous place in the world, and is mainly arranged according to the article "The Night of the Lotus Pond". The "excellent prose" that was changed beyond recognition by Shen Zhe, after being beaten down by the old gentleman, was still identified as a classic by Yan University. After all, when you first enter the school, you will have some confused feelings, and the emotional strength is slightly weaker, but it seems to be more able to touch the hearts of students. Those extremely beautiful sentences smeared a sacred halo on the newly built small lotus pond out of thin air.
Among the colleagues in the 406 dormitory, only Chen Tai, a guy who likes to join in the fun, participated in the reception of new students.
He was a little excited to be a senior, and when asked where the school needed to be visited first, Chen Tai proudly said, "Of course it's Weiming Lake!"
What's more, this product actually led the new students to the dormitory to pay homage to a certain legendary "little prince".
So, for a long time, Shen Zhe was "driven" to the library to take refuge.
I didn't want to deal with this person, so I communicated with him in French.
Chickens and ducks speak.
In September, after more than half a month of preparation, the hardcover edition of the "Sorrow" trilogy entered the shelves of the bookstore.
This version is somewhat unworthy of the name, "White Horse" and "Yue Nu Sword" can also talk about sadness, whether it is "the person who loves deeply loves others" and "heaven...... There is such a ...... in the world Such a beauty!" Shi Aqing's helplessness is a common sadness during the hormonal explosion of men and women.
"Mandarin Duck Knife" is an outright comedy.
To the surprise of the editors of Oriental Culture, book lovers still bought it, and the first printing of one million copies sold out within a month.
The editor-in-chief, Zhong Li, had an idea and asked Uncle Wei to work overtime to produce 10,000 volumes of the collector's edition.
When it was about to be put on the market, he hesitated and asked Shen Zhe's opinion, Shen Zhe thought about it: "It can be used as a feedback to the fans who have been following us." β
"Tsk, Xiao Zhe, you know a lot of Taoism. β
"Brother Zhong, I just think it's good for the magazine to do this, I'm too lazy to do it myself, it's okay to think about ideas......"
"In the 21st century, ideas are the most valuable!"
Shen Zhe was stunned when he held the phone, why did this sound so familiar?
In October and November, the last two parts of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" met with readers and Ming fans one after another.
A huge empire, from the founding of the country to the collapse of hundreds of years buried in the pile of old papers, seven alternative history books once again turn this glorious history out. With a total sales volume of more than 50 million copies, it not only tarnished the historical and publishing circles, but also surprised Shen Zhe and Dongfang Yigan.
In Layue, the Kan school version was submitted to the two departments by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles for review and inclusion in the youth history reader.
At this year's award held in Jiangjin City, Shen Zhe won the royal award again without any suspense, this time with an indisputable result, but he did not go to the scene, and the old gentleman received it on his behalf.
At the end of the year, three huge royalties arrived, and Shen Zhe almost became a billionaire.
After the New Year, the first month of school had just started, and Qi Siyuan of "People" magazine found Shen Zhe again on the phone.
"Teacher Qi, it's not that I don't want to be interviewed, I'm going to take a break in the past two years and finish my college studies well," Shen Zhe said a lot ......of kind words, of course, all nonsense and lies.
He doesn't need any rest at all, and there can be no bottleneck in the so-called creation.
On the one hand, I feel that I am too anxious, and the works are one after another, and the readers are excited to read them, but they have not yet been deeply excavated. The cultural market is also a market, and it needs time to react, and two years should be an appropriate time period. For example, film and television adaptations, drama tours, animation releases, peripheral development...... After the semester, I have to talk to Zhongli about these things, and I have to entrust them to Oriental Culture, anyway, my own company.
These two years can be used to complete life's work and travel the world by the way.
The people and things in this world are unfamiliar to him, except for his family and friends, only those geographical landscapes retain a familiar appearance.
For example, Xiangshan, such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, this is the case in China, and the same is true in the West.
As for the development of the magazine, it is impossible to rush forward vigorously, there are ups and downs, and it seems that the future will not be too miserable.
"Alas, we're not Time after all. β
Shen Zhele said: ", you reporters have a lot of means, and you are no exception, and now you are here to mourn and win." β
Qi Siyuan said over the phone: "Heh, in the future, this time "The Little Prince" has become the best-selling book in history, and it is a big loss not to interview you, and our editor-in-chief will settle accounts with me." β
"The Little Prince" has become a masterpiece?
Shen Zhe didn't want to think about these issues now, he was sometimes inexplicably irritable, and he knew the reason.
As the weather warmed up, I wanted to see that figure more and more.
"It's not promising!"
Another month later, "Shuke and Beta" came face to face with children across the country under the supervision of "Children's 365". At the same time, the first version of the movie "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" was put on the big screen.
The former is hot.
The latter also received a good response, and even more surprisingly, the disc sales were much better than the release period.
After the investigation, Jiang Xiaolou told Shen Zhe that the first domestic martial arts movie inexplicably became a midnight special, which made Shen Zhe scratch his head.
β¦β¦
This year was a more painful year for Shen Zhe, second only to the college entrance examination the year before.
"I'll be a stupid fork when I go to school again, that's it!"
"The best university, the best grades, father, mother, teachers should be satisfied, right?"
After taking the oath, he was quickly called to the dean's office.
"Shen Zhe, how many classes do you still have to take the final exam?" Dean Ren asked with a smile.
"Five doors, completed in half a month. β
"Well, how about coming to me for graduate school, have you thought about it?"
Still remembering this, Shen Zhe had no choice but to shake his head and say, "Dean, I'm going to go abroad this year...... Oh, this thing Mr. also supports. β
Ren Peixue frowned and said, "The teacher knows?"
"Hmm. β
"That's ......" Ren Peixue thought about it for a while, and said: "Since the teacher agrees, I don't object, but you have been a Yan student in the past two years, and it is not too late to go to graduate school when you officially graduate?"
Shen Zhe said helplessly: "Dean, I'll think about it again." β
β¦β¦
"It's too unjust, isn't it?"
In the 406 dormitory of Yan University, Chen Tai had an expression of eating flies.
"You're all gone, leave me here, alone, do you think it's like words?"
Shen Zhe: "It doesn't feel like anything. β
Chu Feiyan: "Oh. β
Dai Zhixue said, "I'm not leaving!"
After a year of recuperation, the black charcoal head has regained into the white and tender fat young man with eyes.
Chen Tai glared: "If you want to accompany your daughter-in-law, do you want to live in a youth apartment?"
"Nonsense, who still lives in the dormitory at this time? Say you can't do it, what kind of youth apartment you live in, you can move to the graduate building immediately, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. β
Shen Zhe: "There is still a bedroom?"
Chu Feiyan: "......"
ββ¦β¦ That's not just me!" Chen Tai was indignant.
"Then who do you blame, I looked at the statistics table of the student union, and one-third of the students in the same period this year have completed their studies, and you are in the two-thirds...... Oh, by the way, you came in with the score line in the college entrance examination, no wonder the level is so high!"
"Who do you say?"
Shen Zhe pulled the rack: "Okay, at most it will take another year, Atai, if you think about the outside world of flowers, the motivation to learn will come immediately." β
"Flower World?" Chen Tai smacked his lips. (To be continued.) )
