Chapter 194: Tan Zhanglou
Xiao Li Flying Knife is a series of works by Gu Long.
They are "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", "Border City Prodigal", "September Flying Eagle", "Tianya. Moon. Knife", "Flying Knife, See Flying Knife Again" are five novels written by Gu Long himself, as well as two ghostwritten works of "The Sound of Knives in the Border City" and "Full Moon Scimitar".
It is said that during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, Li Xunhuan, a talented man in civil and military affairs, was tired of the secular struggle in the officialdom, so he abandoned the official and went into hiding, was attacked by the enemy, was seriously injured and dying, and was rescued by the martial arts master Long Xiaoyun, and the two became righteous brothers.
Li Xunhuan has a fiancée Lin Shiyin, who has been married since she was a child, and she loves each other and plans to get married, but Long Xiaoyun fell in love with Lin Shiyin, got lovesick and almost hit the street, and begged Li Xunhuan to fulfill him and Lin Shiyin.
On one side is the righteous brother who saves his life, and on the other side is the fiancée who loves each other.
Between love and righteousness, Li Xunhuan can't choose.
The painful Li Xunhuan left for a long time, and returned to the Central Plains a few years later, inadvertently having friction with Long Xiaoyun's son Long Xiaoyun. So Li Xunhuan had to return to Li Yuan to face Long Xiaoyun and Lin Shiyin.
Love and resentment, envy and hatred.
wrote a legendary chapter of middle-aged uncle Li Xunhuan.
Looking at Gu Long's classic masterpieces, they can be divided into three periods, namely, the novels written in the early days, such as "Sky Sword", etc., have not escaped the shackles of traditional martial arts; In the middle of the exploration and innovation, he wrote "The History of Martial Arts", "Iron and Blood Banner", etc., and gradually explored his style.
During the real Dacheng period, he formed his own unique style of writing, which was the first part of Xiao Li's flying knife series. "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword".
At that time, when it was published in Taiwan, "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword" was divided into two parts. "The First Knife of the Storm" and "The Soul of the Iron Brave". The upper part writes about the annihilation of the plum blossom thief, bringing out Li Xunhuan's bitter love for Lin Shiyin; The lower part of the narrative and Shangguan Jin Hong competed for power. Everyone appeared on Bai Xiaosheng's weapon spectrum, bringing out Ah Fei's infatuation with Lin Xian'er.
"Amorous" can almost be said to have poured out Gu Long's enthusiasm and hard work, from Li Xunhuan's entry to Ah Fei's long journey, a faint sadness enveloped the whole book.
created a protagonist who is diametrically opposed to Jin Yong's martial arts - Li Xunhuan.
Li Xunhuan has been the third boss-level figure in the world in terms of weapons since he appeared, known as Xiao Li Flying Knife, and the example is not false, Gu Long never wrote how Xiao Li Flying Knife was practiced. Not even a move. And Li Xunhuan was an ordinary uncle when he appeared.
Dressed in ordinary clothes, he is very tall and looks quite handsome, but there is nothing special about it, only a pair of eyes stand out. And he looks haggard, with a sickly appearance all year round, bending over and coughing from time to time, and his temples already have gray hair. On the whole, he is a down-and-out middle-aged man.
This is in martial arts novels. It's almost hard to see.
Li Xunhuan's most shining moment, when he fought against Shangguan Jinhong, was about forty years old.
is indeed a very strange protagonist.
Zhang Tan has seen the most familiar TV series adapted from "Xiao Li Flying Knife", which is Li Xunhuan starring Jiao Enjun. Jiao Enjun's acting skills are very good, but he doesn't match Li Xunhuan at all.
After deciding to write, Zhang Tan began to plan.
The Little Lee Flying Knife is the name of the series. Zhang Tanquan used it as the title of his book, and the content of the story. is mainly for "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", the whole series. This one has the most adaptations and is also the most intriguing.
The outline of the story is very well planned, Zhang Tan has been a human being in two lives, and his memory and thinking power are beyond ordinary people, and he quickly conceived the general plot of "Xiao Li Flying Knife".
So I started writing in high spirits.
But when I was writing, I realized that I still underestimated the problem of style.
Even if he imitated Gu Long, after all, he couldn't inherit Gu Long's style full of personality. But in order to pursue the feeling of "Xiao Li Flying Knife", Zhang Tan had to inject emotion into his white writing, writing like a poem.
It's awkward, it's awkward.
Zhang Tan has written a total of 5 million words since "The Four Famous Capture of the Kanto", whether it is inspiration or copying according to the outline, it is very easy. Only this time, I don't know what's going on, the writing is extremely awkward, and the speed is also very slow, and I can only write three or four thousand words in four or five hours of creation in one night.
"This speed is too scummy."
Looking at the Word document, there was not much content added, Zhang Tan's mood became irritable.
He has made various psychological preparations for "Little Li Flying Knife", and feels that his psychological age is at least thirty-four or five years old, and he has experienced ups and downs, and he can grasp the heart of Li Xunhuan, a middle-aged uncle. But when I really write, I still can't do it handily, and writing is like squeezing toothpaste.
I wanted to give up several times.
But he doesn't want to give up like this, after all, he also has some ambitions in his heart: to learn from the strengths of the five famous masters, and integrate with the mainstream martial arts style of this life, and become the master of a generation of martial arts novels.
"Maybe I changed my style at first and couldn't adapt to it for a while, it seems that it is better to adjust and adjust the state first."
Zhang Tan closed the notebook and decided to relax.
……
The creation of "Xiao Li Flying Knife" was quite unsmooth.
Zhang Tan understands the truth that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, so she didn't force herself too much, how many words she had to write every day. Instead, he shifted his mind to other aspects, the study of directing is necessary, it is also necessary to date Susa, and occasionally he will care about how much money he makes.
The Forbes 2005 China Celebrity List was grandly launched on March 12.
Last year, Zhang Tan ranked 33rd and was the highest-ranking writer on the list.
This year, Zhang Tan's ranking jumped again, and he was just short of entering the top 10, and he was ranked twelfth. The annual income is estimated to be 23 million, which is about the same, because Zhang Tan's copyrights are selling very well, especially film and television copyrights, all of which have been sold.
The income ranking ranks 6th on the list, second only to a few people such as NBA star Yao Ming and the Women's Twelve Band.
With 37 TV exposures, it ranked 42nd.
The newspaper reported 399 times, ranking 53rd.
Magazine cover 0 times.
There were 860,000 web searches, ranking 16th.
12th in the overall ranking.
In this list, there are basically actors, singers, hosts, directors, and athletes, and only four writers were selected, except for Zhang Tan, Yu Qiuyu, who ranked 80, Guo Han who ranked 93, and Han Jingming, who ranked 100. Basically, Zhang Tan is the star of the writers.
His popularity in China is too high.
After the release of the Forbes China Celebrity List, Zhang Tan immediately became a figure on the cusp again, nineteen years old, a multimillionaire, even if he looks at the world, he is also an amazing existence.
However, Zhang Tan is not very happy about this.
Of course, making money is happy, but when making money is exposed, it always feels as if the sense of security is gone all of a sudden. Let him all want to find a few bodyguards to protect his safety, in case he is kidnapped, it will not be good. Reporters have repeatedly come here to find news, but they can't prevent it, disturbing Zhang Tan's interaction with Susa.
What's even more depressing is that all major charitable funds in China have run over to ask Zhang Tan to make charitable donations.
"Don't give it!"
Zhang Tan doesn't have a good impression of any of these charitable funds, there are too many shady foundations exposed in the future, and not many of them are implemented at all, and all of them have been sucked up by the people who control the foundation behind them. Whether it is official, semi-official, or a small non-governmental group, there are too few people who actually do good deeds.
The Red Cross had a ** incident, and the One Foundation did not do anything just to collect money, and the Guangcai Fund was also shady.
Even some of the good deeds of fixed-point help, such as the action of helping students in some remote areas, have become some people's temptations. The method of raping children is really outrageous.
Therefore, Zhang Tan did not have a good face for these charitable funds, and insisted on pulling out a dime.
"That's not good, charity is also part of your personal image, if it's exposed by the media, you haven't donated, it will cause a lot of trouble." Li Yan is not as angry as Zhang Tan, she starts from an all-round perspective.
Many times, public figures do charity, not because they really have good intentions, but for their own image.
Zhang Tan is also a public figure, and his actions will directly affect many people.
Although he didn't donate to the Gem Gold Club because he didn't want to fatten the moths, he couldn't let himself spoil the atmosphere of charity, after all, charity may not help, but if he doesn't do it, it really won't help at all. As a public figure, you should guide the atmosphere of society.
After the egg hurt for a while, Zhang Tan had to compromise: "That's it, donate a little to the Red Cross, and don't give any other funds!" It's all a bunch of junk funds! Also, forget about other charity projects, my personal ability is limited, so I will focus on educational charity in the future. Run Run Shaw in Xuexiang Lane, I donate the teaching building! ”
As the leader of TVB, Run Run Shaw may not be the richest person in Xiangxiang, and he is not good for celebrities, he is more harsh. But Run Run Shaw was a true philanthropist, donating countless school buildings and medical projects in China. Zhang Tannian's alma mater in junior high school has a Shaw Building.
Zhang Tan felt that this kind of charity was more suitable for him, and it was better to donate the building directly than to be sucked by blood through the foundation. And it is also convenient to supervise, whether the local teaching building is built or not, you can know at a glance. There are so many impoverished places in the country that the Hope Project alone cannot solve them.
If you can do your part, you can do your part.
"Run Run Shaw donates Shaw Building, what building do you donate?" Li Yan asked with a smile, for Zhang Tan's indignation, she directly understood that she was a literati's pure arrogance.
The buildings donated by Run Run Shaw are all named after Run Run Shaw, and Zhang Tan inherited them: "The building I donated is called 'Tan Zhang Building'." To be honest, I don't want to be famous for charity...... Let's start with rural primary schools, which can be small projects, those remote rural primary schools. ”
Li Yan nodded and asked, "Who will do this?" ”
"I'll ask my parents."
Zhang Tan immediately discussed this issue with his parents, and Zhang Quanshun and his wife were supportive of their son's ideas.
"Donate money to build a school building, this is a good thing for the benefit of the people, I won't stop you with your mother, there is not much business in Luzhou Studio, let's help you do this." We have to watch our own money be spent, and we can go around the country, which is good. (To be continued.) )
