Chapter 8 It's Not Time Yet
In this era, there are no various Chinese input methods, and everyone uses smart ABC or Wubi input method to type on the computer.
Gu Zhi's previous life was a mixture of buckle and Google input methods, and now he uses the ancient smart ABC again, and it is difficult to adapt to it for a while, and the typing efficiency is much lower.
However, after the title of the book "Wukong wrote" was finished, his fingers couldn't stop.
The sound of crackling and tapping on the keyboard was incessant, and as soon as he started to code words, he was completely caught in it.
Wukong wrote this famous novel, which was the first online novel Gu Zhi read in his previous life, and it was also the one that left the deepest impression on him.
On the Internet in China, Wukong has always enjoyed the reputation of "the first book on the Internet", and has been selected as the top ten online novels by many publishing houses, newspapers and websites.
Almost everyone who reads a web novel has heard of this work, and it is worshiped by many people as a classic among the classics.
Written by Wukong, adapted from Journey to the West and Journey to the West, it tells the story of the tragic hero Sun Wukong and the struggle of Tang monk Zhu Bajie and others against fate, and reinterprets Journey to the West from the perspective of a modern person.
The work is permeated with the power of anger, the grief and indignation of confronting authority and fate, and the love and warmth of desperation.
It tore apart all the face-painted characters that once represented justice and acted as heroes, so that every "classic" image in Journey to the West has been completely transformed, thus giving them complex feelings and connotations.
In addition, this book is also enthusiastic enough, enough for secondary two, and enough to mobilize the reader's emotions.
When Gu Zhi read it for the first time, he was also full of enthusiasm, and he hated to go to the heavenly court in person and smash the Nantian Gate to enjoy it.
What teenager hasn't had a hero dream yet?
So this book has become popular, it has passed the test of time, it has been popular for nearly 20 years, and the popularity is still unabated.
A few months before Gu Zhi's rebirth, Wukong was adapted into a movie, and as a fan in his early years, he deliberately squeezed out time in his busy schedule and bought tickets to go to the cinema to support it.
"What the hell is this?"
From the first ten minutes of the movie to the end of the screening, Gu Zhi only had this one thought in his heart.
is a very burning and passionate story, which was stunned and made into a costume romance idol drama.
There is no plot, only special effects.
The plot is childish to death, and the emotional drama is like the early love of primary school students, without any sense of substitution.
The rhythm is chaotic, the clues are disordered, and it is simply a marketing work made with a layer of Wukong's skin.
is not enough to be enthusiastic about the second grade, and not hard enough to remember, so he wasted two hours alive.
The reason why Gu Zhi chose to write this work by himself now is that he takes a fancy to its unparalleled influence and wants to rely on it to promote his reputation.
In addition, he wants to hold this IP in his own hands, so that he can make a Wukong-written movie worthy of the support of the audience and book fans in the future.
And Wukong's writing also triggered another inspiration in Gu Zhi's heart, but this inspiration is a bit grandiose.
At present, he has not formed his own power in the entertainment industry, and it is useless to think too much, everything is still too early.
Gu Zhi buried this inspiration deep in his heart for the time being, and prepared to take it out again and put it into action when the time was ripe.
Time passed rapidly in the code words, and before he knew it, Gu Zhi had been coding in front of the computer for five hours and completed nearly 10,000 words.
Wukong has written a total of about 150,000 words, and he is now idle at home, counting the daytime time, it is estimated that he can complete this work in a week at most.
Six days later.
At noon, the sun hung high, there was silence outside the window, and the cicada chirping disappeared.
Today is Sunday, the temperature outside has reached 33 degrees, and almost every family is lying in an air-conditioned room at noon, and no one wants to go out.
Gu Zhi was standing in front of an old yellow calendar, looking at the recent date.
At that time, almost every family had an old yellow calendar with very poor paper, which not only contained dates, but also feng shui taboos and gossip and five elements.
It's written that it's okay to go out to get married today, and avoid moving to get a haircut and the like, which is an old-fashioned feudal superstition, but in 17 years, there are still many people of the older generation who believe in this.
Gu Zhi has been staying at home every day to code words, and the yard is reversed day and night in the dark, completely forgetting the time.
Today can be regarded as the completion of Wukong's writing, and when I look at the date, it's June 29th, and tomorrow is the time for the school to have summer vacation.
Brother Xiao Ma agreed to his friend application a few days ago, and the two of them just exchanged a few words, and Brother Xiao Ma went offline on the grounds that he was too busy with work.
Gu Zhi didn't know if this was an excuse or a fact, but judging from the chat record with Xiao Ma, he could clearly feel a strong sense of distrust.
Gu Zhi also understands this.
A high school student who can barely be regarded as a rich second generation suddenly said that he would spend a lot of money to invest in a penguin that was still unknown at the time, and anyone would feel a little fantastical.
If it weren't for the fact that the consultant was Brother Xiaoma's teacher, Gu Zhi estimated that Brother Xiao Ma would not agree to add himself as a deductible friend.
Gu Zhi simply stopped looking for him, so as not to make him more suspicious.
Now is not the time, the number of users who buckle has just begun to grow, and in another two or three months, Gu Zhi believes that Brother Xiao Ma will think of him.
"Dad, you'll see how my novel is doing. ”
Gu Zhi called out to his father, who was washing dishes.
When the consultant heard his son's voice, he took off the lady's apron tied around his neck without hesitation, wiped his hands on it, and then handed it to Lin Zhi, who was sitting on the sofa watching CCTV news at noon.
"My son called me, you hurry. ”
Lin Zhi rolled her eyes at her husband, pursed her mouth, and angrily closed the apron.
Then he glared at Gu Zhi again, and walked into the kitchen slowly.
"Dad, I'm talking about it in a while, and you're too ashamed..."
"I can't wait to see my son's work. ”
The consultant's words were conclusive, and his face was right.
The expression on his face changed instantly in the next second, and he quietly glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and then lowered his head and whispered:
"Your mom hasn't washed the dishes in a week, and it's her turn today, hehe. ”
After speaking, Gu Zhi also laughed with his father.
The relationship between Consultant Zhi and Lin Zhi has always been very good, rarely quarreling, occasionally bickering, making each other cautious, and adding a little fun to life.
Being able to see his parents standing in front of him again in good health and beauty was the happiest thing for Gu Zhi since he was reborn.
Led the consultant to the computer, opened the document written by Wukong, and soon, the consultant was attracted to the content of the novel.
Soon two hours passed, and the consultant read all of Wukong's writings at once.
There was no pause in the middle of the journey, and it was done directly from the beginning to the end.
He glanced at Gu Zhi, who was sitting beside him, and couldn't imagine that it would take his son only one week to complete such a work.
Although he is a science student, he usually reads a lot of books and his appreciation ability is not bad.
As a frequent visitor to the library of Fukayo University, he basically goes to the library to read books whenever he has free time at school.
The main reason is that there were not many entertainment activities at that time, and reading books became one of the pastimes of consultants.
Although this novel written by Wukong is adapted from Journey to the West, it is completely different from the content of Journey to the West.
Compared with the literary works he usually reads, there is a big difference, and the words are full of inexplicable power and all kinds of complex emotions.
At the age of a consultant, it is natural that he will not be easily emotionally aroused and resonate by the novel, and there are many passages in the novel that seem to him to be very willful and impulsive.
But doesn't this represent the drive and fearlessness of young people?
"Yes, this book should be very suitable for the tastes of young people. ”
The advisor nodded and looked at Gu Zhi deeply.
When did the son grow to this point.
Since half a month ago, Gu Zhi's changes have been too great.
He couldn't help but suffer a little from gains and losses.
"That's good. Dad, do you know anyone from a publishing house? Submit a manuscript for me and see if any publisher is willing to print this novel. ”
