Chapter 209: The Most Special Martial Arts
It's hard to say whether the American people need Zhang Tan or not.
At least lovers of martial arts novels need Zhang Tan to bring them more wonderful works as spiritual food. Du Niang Tan Zhang, the number of followers has exceeded 150,000, becoming the largest number of people in the post bar. Every day, countless martial arts lovers come here to make friends and tear up.
When there are more people, there are more things in the rivers and lakes.
Some people couldn't bear to make a little fuss, and began to organize bar friends, and founded a journal belonging to the post bar - "Tan Style Martial Arts Commentary".
Select well-written book reviews from your friends and compile them into a collection post.
What "The Unique Exquisite Man - Huang Yaoshi", "Who is the Hero in the Legend of the Condor Heroes", "There are no people in the past, and the water is still cold today", "Rong'er is just a teenager", "The most painful thing is Yang Kang", "The style of that sword. Qi Shaoshang", "Wanyan Honglie: You are the person I want to marry", "Yang Guo is a mistake for life at first sight", "Yang Guo is an out-and-out Scorpio" abound.
Every article has resonated with countless people, or torn it up.
It is precisely because there are so many readers who are entangled here all day long that Tan Zhangba can attract incomparable popularity, ranking first in the popularity of the post bar at this stage. And the popularity and activity of the post bar undoubtedly reflect the huge popularity that Zhang Tan has gathered today.
At this time, Zhang Tan published a new book "Xiao Li Flying Knife", and the momentum was already extraordinary.
There were countless fans early on, ready for the money, and just waiting for the novel to hit the shelves.
At this time, there were still many authors of martial arts novels, such as Zhang Feifei and Li Tiejian from Hong Kong and Taiwan. They are all relatively powerful writers, in the mainland region. There are also a large number of martial arts authors, from "Ancient Legends. Magazines such as "Martial Arts Edition" and "Martial Arts Story" started. Gradually became famous.
However, if you want to be able to publish a physical book, this is not something that ordinary authors can do, even Xiao Linden, who is now known as "the only linden under Tan Zhang", is also struggling with the publication of physical books.
Xiao Lin can be said to be the mainland martial arts author who started at the same time as Zhang Tan. The mainstay of the martial arts version, but after all, it is very different from Zhang Tan. Even if "Martial Arts Version" is willing to praise him, and even give him the title of "the only linden under Tan Zhang", and title him as the second martial arts author in the mainland.
His novels. It was only then that I started from magazines to publishing.
It is said that New World Publishing House has planned to publish his "Legend of Heroes in Troubled Times", but it has not been printed for a long time because it is uncertain about the market sales.
Don't look at Zhang Tan's novels, they often sell one or two million copies per volume, but this is a phenomenal writer, and this one is so hung on the market, other writers can't compare. Although Zhang Tan has driven the martial arts market, he is still a little alone. After all, in the era of the gradual decline of martial arts, good works are needed more to break through.
The only martial arts novelist recognized by the market is Zhang Tan. Even among all popular fiction writers. It's just a few Zhang Tan, Han Jingming, Guo Han and so on.
This is also a pyramid structure.
At the bottom are countless authors who find it difficult to even publish, in the middle are a large number of authors who can be published in magazines but do not have the opportunity to publish, and at the top level are authors who can be published. That's it for the best-selling authors at the top.
And Zhang Tan.
Undoubtedly, standing at the highest peak, an admirable existence.
"Xiao Li Flying Knife" is about to be published by Joint Publishing Company. As soon as this news was issued, it immediately caused an uproar.
Tan Zhang's bar. As well as the Legend of the Condor Heroes, the Condor Heroes, and the Four Famous Catchers, they have put the news of the publication of "Xiao Li Flying Knife" in the most conspicuous position of the post bar.
Readers and book lovers have posted to express their expectations, saying that the money is ready, just waiting for the first time to buy.
After the media got the news, they also called Zhang Tan one after another, wanting to interview Zhang Tan and ask about the news of the new book. However, Zhang Tan did not receive a reply, but Joint Publishing specially arranged a press conference for Zhang Tan's new book, which was held at the Taofen Book Center, and reporters and readers were invited to participate.
Let's talk about the new book "Xiao Li Flying Knife".
In fact, since the broadcast of "Interview with Yang Lan", Zhang Tan has rarely been interviewed by the media, and the reason is that he feels that all his life, creation, and future have been talked about on the show. Again, the interview is repeated.
Moreover, in the past few years, he has risen all the way, from a rural boy to a famous country and a reputation overseas, the limelight has been out, and the vanity of the cool has been experienced. He is not the kind of person who likes to live in the spotlight, so he gradually keeps a low profile.
Since "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was broadcast nationwide, he would wait for the paparazzi outside the house in the second phase of Guanyuan Apartment, ready to take pictures secretly, and now, basically no reporters have followed him. He has been dating Susa for a while, and he has not shied away, he has made very generous appearances, and occasionally shows affection.
There was no reporter to report on this incident, which shows that the low-key effect is very obvious.
Although he is low-key because of the great achievements of the novel, he will inevitably be mentioned by the media from time to time.
But it's his name and his deeds that are mentioned, not the lace news of him as a person. At least now walking on the main road, ninety-seven percent of the people look at his face and don't know who he is.
It's a good feeling.
Of course, there are some necessary occasions, and he is embarrassed to continue to keep a low profile.
For example, in this press conference, other publishers gave face and helped sell novels, but as an author, they did not show up, which cannot be said. Therefore, Zhang Tan, whose emotional intelligence is not low, readily agreed, attended the press conference, and talked eloquently in front of reporters and readers.
The reporter asked a question, Zhang Tan answered, and the interaction effect was good.
At the end of the press conference, Zhang Tan originally had no plans to sign autographs, but the fans who came to cheer on him all took the books they bought from the Taofen Book Center and asked Zhang Tan to sign them.
As a last resort, Zhang Tan stayed and signed for two hours.
……
A few days after the press conference, on May 1, Labor Day, "Xiao Li Flying Knife" was officially launched nationwide.
Major bookstores across the country. Suddenly, a different scene appeared.
Many customers have two books in their hands. Come and check out.
One is the first volume of Zhang Tan's new book "Xiao Li Flying Knife", and the other is also the third volume of Zhang Tan's new book "Four Famous Hunting Generals". An author. It was also a remarkable achievement to have two new books on the shelves at the same time, and both books were big sellers.
Because the copyright of Zhang Tan's current novel has been sold before it was created, even after a name was drafted, the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan are basically on the shelves at the same time.
It is worth mentioning that because of the Taiwan. The problem of independence led to the termination of the cooperation between Xian Xian Culture and Luzhou Studio. But now the communication between the two sides of the strait is gradually heating up, and Taiwan Crown Publishing House has taken the lead and signed a full set of novel publishing contracts with Luzhou Studio, including "Xiao Li Flying Knife"
Therefore, when the mainland is selling "Xiao Li Flying Knife", Hong Kong and Taiwan are also selling it.
Wen Caile, Twist, Four Eyes and others, who have been chasing Zhang Tan's novels since middle school, are now in high school and are about to face the university entrance examination. But without exception, I ran to the bookstore as soon as I could, enough to buy the latest "Four Famous Hunting Generals" and "Xiao Li Flying Knife".
"It's cool to have two good books to read this month." Wen Caile held the book with satisfaction and said goodbye to Twist and Four-Eyed.
Back home. Hide in the room first, plug the door, and then open "The Four Famous Fighting Generals". Look with relish. Wen Caile is a little different from other people's tastes, and his favorite is the series of the four famous catches. Especially the two parts "Huijing Division" and "Against the Cold", they simply took out all his love.
Now the same is true of this "Fighting General". Especially after watching the four famous catches in adulthood, and then looking back at their childhood, when they met, it was really like drinking a bowl of preserved egg and lean porridge in the cold winter, warming my heart to the end.
Although "Fighting General" is not a novel with warm colors.
Wen Caile looks like a novel, and has a habit of reading it from beginning to end, and then starting to read it again, word by word.
This kind of reading allows him to harvest two happiness, one is naturally to follow the ups and downs of the plot, and the other is the writing itself. However, there are usually very few authors, and it is worth going back and reading a second time, probably only Zhang Tan's novels, which have this magic, good plot, and good writing.
Every time I read it, I have a different experience.
But this time, after reading "General Dou", he didn't re-read it, because there was a new book waiting for him to read.
"Xiao Li Flying Knife".
Wen Caile has known this book for a long time, he is very concerned about Zhang Tan's news, and he has long known that after Zhang Tan finished writing "Fighting General", he began to write "Xiao Li Flying Knife".
"Xiao Li flying knife? Pretty cheesy name. At that time, Wen Caile was still a little bit interested in the title of the book, and he didn't like it very much, and he always felt that there were no names like "Four Famous Catches", "Condor Heroes", and "Condor Heroes".
If it had been written by an ordinary person, he might not even be interested in reading it.
But this is written by Zhang Tan, the famous martial arts master "Tan Zhang", a great writer who created Tan-style martial arts, set off the trend of martial arts, and restored the atmosphere of the golden age of martial arts.
Wen Caile has long become Zhang Tan's brain-dead fan, and Zhang Tan is willing to read "The King Dog Egg Next Door".
Turn the page.
What catches the eye is a preface.
Zhang Tan likes to write prefaces, which can be regarded as a summary and presentation of the novels he has created, an outline. "Xiao Li Flying Knife" is no exception.
As a brain-dead fan, Wen Caile certainly does not ignore the preface of each book, and reading the preface is like communicating with the author face-to-face, and can touch the author's thoughts.
"I have been creating martial arts for nearly four years, from the four famous catches to the Condor and the Condor, there are five million words. Starting from the four famous catches, I am also constantly seeking innovation and change. Condor shooting is different from the previous martial arts, it is a change; The different martial arts of the past are a change; Today's Xiao Li Flying Knife has changed again. ”
"Xiao Li's flying knife has changed a lot, not only in my writing style, but also in the form of martial arts. People often change the most painful, and writing this book, I have also had pain, because it is true that there is too much change. I'm good at writing long stories, starting with the Condor shooting, which are all million-word long stories. ”
When he arrived at Xiao Li Feidao, he only wrote 500,000 words, and handed them over to Joint Publishing for publication, divided into three volumes. Actually, I thought about this story a lot, but I never continued it. But I think that these 500,000 words are probably the most unusual 500,000 words in martial arts novels. ”
"Seeking innovation and change are all in these 500,000 words. I believe this is not an 'authentic' martial arts, but definitely the most special martial arts ......"
A few words, a short preface.
After reading the preface, Wen Caile couldn't help but secretly have expectations: "The detective has never been an old-fashioned and clichéd author, this "Xiao Li Flying Knife" can be called the most special martial arts by him, it must be worth exploring for me!" (To be continued.) )
PS: First of all, I'm sorry, but there's only one shift tonight.
I finished my chores in the afternoon, sat at the computer desk and prepared the code words, but I took a nap on the keyboard, and woke up to find that my chest was tight, dizzy, and cold. I barely coded this chapter, and I felt a little unbearable, so I went to bed early now.
If I have a good rest tomorrow, I should have three shifts to make up for today.
Also, let's talk about the update here, there are many things for the New Year, and the amount of updates may be unstable, I hope you can understand.
