Chapter 286: Bright Sword [First Update]
"If only you could serialize a new military novel in 'Fellow Robes...... I think it will definitely be able to make "Fellow Robes" a blockbuster! As long as you create a new military novel...... Not to mention anything else, the troops alone will definitely actively subscribe, and the influence of last year's "Soldier Assault" still exists until now! ”
Kitajima was a little embarrassed at first, but when he talked about the effect of Gowen's serialization of a new military novel in "Fellowship", his eyebrows fluttered.
After a lot of rambling, Kitajima stared at Govin for fear that he would refuse.
"Damn, you let me see the inaugural issue of "Fellow Soldiers", the purpose is not to arrest me as a laborer!" Govin asked Kitajima with some anger and amusement.
"How can it, don't you have to pay for the manuscript." Kitajima simply admitted.
Gewen rolled his eyes angrily, as for what Beidao said about the manuscript fee, it was simply a joke, the founding funds of "Tongpao" were all provided by himself, he said that giving the manuscript fee was not just taking his own money and then giving it to himself, and it was not the left hand in and the right hand out.
"Govern, help, anyway, you have had time recently, and you have been reading in the reading room in the courtyard, and you also need to change your brain! Or do you write something? Kitajima scurried behind Govin from across the desk, and while cordially persuading Govern, he rubbed Govern's shoulder, which was extremely flattering.
Govyn shuddered, and hurriedly pulled him away: "Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, where did you learn this, it's not a shame!" Speaking out, you are not afraid of ruining your identity as the first person in the capital of hazy poetry! ”
"You promised?" Kitajima ignored Gowen's ridicule, but instead grasped Gowen's language sickness.
"Promised, you're like this, can I still say a word." Govyn gave him an angry look.
"Oh, Govern, you know, the inaugural issue of "Tongpao" is scheduled to be released before the Spring Festival, and your time is running out! You have to hurry up and write it. Kitajima's face changed very quickly, and for a moment it was as if he had changed people, and immediately urged Govin to come.
"I'm ¥#%#¥@"
Jokes aside, since he promised Beidao to write a new military novel, then Govin can only put down his leisurely reading life and work hard again.
But what to write?
In Gowen's previous life, he had read many military-themed novels, movies, and TV series, but few left a deep impression on him.
For him, the reason why he was able to be better than the writers of this era was that in addition to his own efforts to improve his literary accomplishment and learn and supplement various knowledge, the most important thing was that he had experienced the explosive information age in later generations, and his horizons were extremely broad.
In terms of innovation and ideas, Govin said that he is the second in China, so no one dares to say that he is the first, but he stands on the shoulders of countless predecessors, he stands higher and sees farther.
Therefore, when other writers pondered the subject matter of creation, Govin never worried, and later generations of television, movies, novels, games, and even small jokes on the Internet gave him countless inspirations and creative sources.
The only thing that is the same as the writers of this era is-
After deciding on the content of the writing, he, like any writer of his time, needs to carefully ponder the plot of the story, polish the writing skills and words, and repeatedly revise and improve the text. After all, the life in his previous life only brought him creativity and ideas, and he did not have the memory to forget, so it was impossible for him to copy the words and images he had seen in his previous life as they were.
In his previous life, Govin had seen very few domestic military movies, and there were many Hollywood war blockbusters in the United States, but they did not match the actual situation. If you really want to borrow the creativity of Hollywood blockbusters, there are too many things that need to be revised and improved, as Kitajima said, "Fellow Robes" must be released before the Spring Festival, and the time is too tight to choose.
I've watched a lot of TV series, but most of them are anti-Japanese dramas, Govyn complained while watching it in his previous life, if he wrote it, I'm afraid he would be scolded to death by readers, and it is more likely that he was beaten by Beidao Haibian.
Aside from those anti-Japanese dramas and romance and family films that are actually emotionally sold under the guise of military films, the most memorable military-themed TV series in Gowen's mind now are "Soldier Assault", and the remaining TV series are only a few TV series such as "The Sky of History", "Bright Sword", and "Latent".
In his previous life, Govin had a good habit of reading his favorite TV series after reading the book of the same name. So he has read all the novels of these dramas, and the general context of the stories is very clear, although it is impossible to completely remember the content, but whether it is in the TV series or some wonderful plots in the novel of the same name, Govin is deeply impressed.
So, choose from these TV series!
Govyn scratched his head.
For a person with deep difficulty in choosing, the choice of these three novels alone also makes him a little worried.
However, recalling the storylines of these three works, Govyn quickly locked on one of them.
"Bright Sword"!
That's right, it's "Bright Sword"!
Speaking of which, in these three works, except for "Latent", which has a TV series first and then a novel, whether it is "The Sky of History" or "Bright Sword", both novels were published first, and then adapted into TV series. The novel "The Sky of History" won the Mao Dun Literature Award.
However, Govine did not choose "The Sky of History", although he had already begun to peep at the Mao Dun Literary Award, the highest award in Chinese literature.
The reason is very simple, although both novels are about the difficult transformation of a hooligan bandit to grow into a real revolutionary, both write about the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the War of Liberation, and the ten-year turmoil, but "The Sky of History" has a lot of descriptions of the internal struggle of the organization, while "Bright Sword" puts the sublimation of the novel on the Cultural Revolution and on the reflection on the Cultural Revolution.
Gowen is not a stunned young man, not a nerd who doesn't listen to what's going on outside the window, he understands politics and understands the situation.
Although China has begun reform and opening up under the leadership of Deng Gong, the contradiction between high-level radicals and conservatives has always existed and will always exist. China will cross the river by feeling the stones in this way, repeatedly, repeatedly, until everyone is convinced that there is no problem with reform and opening up, and then it will twist into a rope and stride forward.
The tugging and stumbling in this process are objective facts and inevitable, which Gowen is very clear about as a traverser.
So he won't get into trouble, in case he writes "The Sky of History" and is considered an insinuation, wouldn't it be asking for trouble.
And "Bright Sword" is different, since Deng Gong's comeback, the whole country has begun to be rehabilitated on a large scale.
In particular, at the Sixth Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee in June 1981, the state adopted resolutions on a number of historical issues, correctly appraised the major events and the merits and demerits of the leaders in the 30 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and made a correct summary of the great cultural revolution and life.
In recent years, the rise of reflective literature and scar literature in the Chinese literary scene all shows that all kinds of previous shackles have been loosened, and the state and the party have the courage and courage to admit the mistakes of the Cultural Revolution.
A reflection of this level like "Bright Sword" is just right. It can only be regarded as a response and support for the country's politics, but it will not bring any problems.
