Chapter 376: Preparing for the Release of a New Novel!
For Li Kuo, this annual author contest is already a competition that he has decided to participate in and hopes to get results on it, and he was indeed a little negligent before. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Of course, last month was mainly a miscalculation......
In fact, "The Green-Haired Monster" is indeed a very wonderful novel, as a novella, the structure and the point of view are relatively clear, and there are descriptions of some real friendship between boys and girls, and whether there is real friendship or not.
In it, the protagonist doesn't really fulfill his promise to the green-haired monster in the end anyway......
This novel is not all deserted or scolded on the official website of the annual author contest, in fact, many people are still liking and giving out their own praise.
"I think that "The Green-Haired Monster" is not as thought-provoking as "Medicine" in general, and even people can't help but start comparing the past and the present, and begin to reflect on the current reality, but this novel has brought me a lot of insights, especially although there are some supernatural things in it, it is still describing the content of friendship in general, which makes me feel that this novel gives people a sense of empathy anyway...... I wonder how disappointed I would have been if I were that girl. ”
"No matter what others say, I personally still like "The Green-Haired Monster" anyway, especially some of the plots in it...... Of course, compared to "A Bowl of Clear Soup Soba" and "Medicine", Li Kuo's "The Green-Haired Water Monster" is a little dragged, and in some plots, there is a bit of Rory's rambling feeling, but I think this is also one of the characteristics of this novel. ”
…… Li Kuo himself has read a lot of book reviews.
Of all the books last month, "The Green-Haired Monster" could only reach sixth place, although that's a pretty good result for anyone else. But for Li Kuo, especially for Li Kuo, who received so much praise last month and "Medicine" almost swept the world, this achievement is a bit unsatisfactory......
At the very least, more needs to be done.
"What kind of novel should I publish next?" Li Kuo was pondering.
Judging from the incident of "The Green-Haired Water Monster", Li Kuo also realized some truths...... Anyway, I can't be too anxious, and I can't always think about rubbing hot spots, anyway, the road of rubbing hot spots won't work, after all, how the novel is in the end depends on the specific quality of the novel......
But the quality of the novel is not everything.
There is a big reason for the success of "Medicine", which is that Li Kuo was treated very unfairly by Jiangnan Satellite TV before, and Jiangnan Satellite TV edited his program indiscriminately, which caused many viewers to misunderstand Li Kuo, and also made some marketing accounts make a fuss about Li Kuo...... And "The Green-Haired Water Monster" does not have such a deep social background.
Li Kuo thought of the more successful novels he had observed in the annual author contest before, and he also had a number in his heart - most of these relatively successful novels have one characteristic, that is, they are also very entertaining! Even for many authors, entertainment is something that has been placed before literature.
If entertainment and literature were to be combined...... A novel appeared in Li Kuo's head.
The entertainment of this novel is okay, and if it is in line with the hot spots of the times, it will involve some things that everyone likes to ridicule, such as "green hat" and "happy to be a father...... And these things run through that novel.
And the background of this novel is the fifties and sixties in China, and the background of the fifties and sixties in China in this time and space is still relatively similar, so this novel can coexist in both time and space.
And this novel is definitely not just as simple as the entertainment mentioned above, this book can give people a lot of thinking, it is easy for a person to imagine the things of that era, and at the same time realize the commonality between the two time and space......
Such a novel should be able to meet the perfect fit of literature and entertainment.
This novel, called "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood", is a work by Yu Hua.
This is a long novel with a total of 29 chapters, which tells the story of a silk factory cocoon worker named Xu Sanguan who sold his blood many times to survive in the difficult years of life.
The uniqueness of this novel is obvious, and in such a novel, you can still feel something similar to that of novels like "White Deer Plain", "Alive", and "Ordinary World...... This kind of thing is the enthusiasm for survival and the longing for life of the people in the yellow earth......
The enthusiasm for survival, the attachment to the land, and the description of the inherent Chinese kinship were what many writers of that era were willing to do.
The traditional Chinese things in "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" are more based on the description of a few children who were not originally their own......
This is also a traditional relationship, but for this novel, more is Xu Sanguan's difficult survival in that era, expressing people's desire to survive under bad luck.
The combination of these things should be able to satisfy everyone's reading desire for many readers nowadays.
Yu Hua's novel penmanship is also a combination of translation and Chinese vernacular literature, which still involves many things such as the New Culture Movement, and this kind of novel penmanship can also see many things such as writing, so there is no problem in this regard.
After Li Kuo made up his mind, he began to contact Fang Xi, the person in charge of the annual author competition.
There will be some responsible editors in the annual author competition, which is similar to the things that the responsible editors of online articles need to be responsible for, which is to communicate with the author, and then be responsible for some content management.
Li Kuo: If they can enter the top three on the general list or the newcomer list, they will have a special person in charge, who will be responsible for communicating the website and the author, and at the same time understand the dynamics of the author and answer some questions about the website......
Fang Xi is Li Kuo's exclusive winner.
"Chapter 29 of the novel...... This is already a long novel! Are you planning to publish a single book? This Fang Xi asked.
Li Kuo had already pondered this question before, so he said: "That's right, I plan to publish a single book, after all, it's a novel......
Fang Xi quickly sent the news over: "But if it is a single book, it will definitely take a long time for you to submit your manuscript now to the future publication, and it is estimated that it will take at least a month, in this case, it will be difficult to participate in the current month's evaluation......
This question made Li Kuo stop asking...... (To be continued.) )
