Chapter 319: Ending the Ghost Story Serialization

Su Wen decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and in the face of the cries calling for him to come up with more Chinese as soon as possible, he didn't hear it, and just continued to post his vernacular ghost stories in the life newspaper. 『』『』

"Kyoto Life" really made a lot of money, with the emergence of Su Wen "Painted Skin" and other literary texts, it caused a surging controversy, and their newspaper also attracted a lot of attention, driving sales.

It is said that the sales volume of Life Newspaper has gone to more than 2.3 million, and those peers are so red-eyed that they just didn't roll up their sleeves to grab Su Wen.

It is estimated that this is the reason why they risked offending Su Wen to publish the article sent by Hou Bowang - one qiē for sales!

The muffled life newspaper that made a fortune was darkly cool, and the readers who contributed to the sales were depressed. They subscribed to the life newspaper in order to read Su Wen's follow-up classical Chinese, but this guy didn't move at all, and the story was still published, but it was still in the vernacular.

Vernacular ghost stories, or stalls!

Only classical Chinese is high-end and elegant, it is valuable, and it can let them see Su Wen's talent. Now that Su Wen is ignoring their voices, how can he not make them angry?

So, a new round of criticism came:

"What about more ghost stories in Chinese? Suven gave us such a big pigeon! What is this, is it a sales fraud? Su Wen, you come out for me, I promise not to kill you! ”

This person completely ignored the fact that Su Wen didn't say that there was more classical Chinese from beginning to end, on the contrary, Su Wen said on Weibo that there was no more classical Chinese, and he ignored it even more.

"I guess Jiang Lang is exhausted, and occasionally drummed up two or three ancient texts of "Painted Skin", thinking that he has exhausted his talent. In other words, the level is like this, and nothing else can be written. ”

This is unpleasant to look at Su Wen.

"Maybe we've all been fooled! Maybe this is something that Life Daily and Su Wen and that professor hyped up. Objective? For the sake of sales, of course! Haven't you heard that this newspaper has reached a new high in sales? Think about it, since they fell in love with Su Wen and hyped it repeatedly, this is the first time they have boasted of a record high in sales? This time is no exception, it's still hype! ”

This argument is, of course, devised by those with conspiracies.

"Professor Hou. What about your guesses, what about your suspicions, you're fooling us, right? ”

Some people also pointed the signs at Hou Bowang, thinking that he was exaggerating. Fooled a group of readers. This rhetoric was presided over by those who were disappointed, and they all praised it.

"Professor Hou's discipline has lost ......"

"And the professor, he doesn't tell the truth at all, alas, the way of this world. The world is going down, ......"

"What kind of virtue is a professor, don't you know?"

"Hou Bowang, if you come out, we promise not to slap you in the face......"

The murderous criticism invaded Professor Hou's body and mind, making him uneasy for the past few days, and he didn't even have any thoughts in class, and always felt that the students below looked at him very strangely, suspicious, angry, and wrong......

He felt the most wronged!

Like a reader's torture. Professor Hou was also asking in his heart: "Okay, you Su Wen, how can you say that there is no other classical Chinese?" Aren't you talking nonsense with your eyes open? I can't play happily anymore! ”

How could his calculations be wrong, this is not scientific!

Therefore, it must have been Su Wen who teased everyone, obviously he had an article in his hand, but he said that he didn't have it, and he refused to take it out, which made him Professor Hou Da be slapped in the face.

Hou Bowang, who was ashamed and embarrassed, almost had to judge Su Wen to fail in his professional class!

"What this guy is going to do, why don't you take it out, it's all up to this. You are still covering up, does it make sense! It depends on the time to sell at the price! Hou Bowang didn't understand very much, and personally found Su Wen to question, but Su Wen still gave him a negative answer.

No. Just no!

Professor Hou was so angry that he was about to vomit blood on the spot, he obviously wanted to be a good person and defend Su Wen, and he did not hesitate to release the ancient text in his hand, who would have thought that Su Wen would not appreciate it!

Professor Hou, who came back in a huff, could only secretly squat in the corner of the wall and draw circles to curse someone.

Su Wen didn't respond. Those cultural celebrities who were shocked by "Painted Skin" and other texts began to stir again.

Some were disappointed, some sighed, some breathed a sigh of relief, and some began to jump up and down again, continuing to criticize Su Wen's vernacular ghost stories for being extremely rubbish.

This has been disturbing for nearly two weeks, and the aftermath is still not small.

In this matter, the "Kyoto Life" newspaper benefited the most, and the rising sales are the best proof of this; The one who did the most damage was Hou Bowang, and everyone felt that he couldn't predict accurately, because Su Wen didn't come up with more classical Chinese.

It was Su Wen who had mixed reputations, and the advantage was that it further launched the influence of his ghost stories, plus three literary essays, which immediately raised his literary status, so that everyone did not dare to criticize casually; The disadvantage is that vernacular ghost stories are still synonymous with low level, and everyone feels that he writes such stories, lowers his status, and also affects his reputation.

This made Su Wen a little frustrated and a little bored, and decided to stop the ghost story column in two days.

There are indeed a lot of stories in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", but not every one of them is suitable for current readers to read, and the tastes are different.

It's been nearly a month, and the ghost stories that Su Wen has tinkered with are okay in terms of storytelling and readability; He continued to adapt and maybe find a few stories, but he didn't have much interest anymore.

Hearing the news, Ma Junwu was the happiest, and he clasped his hands together and said, "Thank God, Boss Su, you finally figured it out." ”

The corners of Su Wen's mouth twitched: "Is it so exaggerated?" ”

Ma Junwu said seriously: "You have seen everyone's criticism, if it weren't for Professor Hou releasing your three classical Chinese essays, it is estimated that you would have been scolded by now." Speaking of Professor Hou, you are really not kind, people have helped you so much, you are good, you directly rejected the kindness of others, and you didn't take out half of the literary essay, which made him criticized. ”

Su Wen said angrily: "I don't seem to have asked him to help me with anything, he made his own decisions, and I sent my article without asking, and it was good that I didn't sue him." ”

"Yes, if you get cheap, you can sell well!" Ma Junwu snorted, "To be honest, if, as Professor Hou said, each of your stories has a Chinese version, the value of these stories is indeed not small. But I can't figure out what the value of those vernacular ghost stories is, and what your purpose is in publishing them. ”

Su Wen laughed: "Didn't you notice that a lot of my ghost stories are written about love stories between men and women?" ”

Ma Junwu frowned and asked, "What do you mean......"

Su Wen patted him on the shoulder and said leisurely: "The theme of love is always the favorite of film and television adaptations. If you can't see the value, it doesn't mean that people who are professionals in the film and television industry can't see it. ”

"What you want is a copyright business?" Ma Junwu understood, but he was puzzled, "Then you have written so many articles, why no one has come to you to talk about copyright business?" ”

Su Wen sighed: "This shows that my fame is not big enough to make them excited, and they also underestimate the potential of ghost stories." When I'm as famous as Wang Tianming, don't tell a ghost story, just tell a joke casually, and it is estimated that they will all compete for the copyright! This means that I will continue to expand my reputation! ”

Ma Junwu's heart moved when he heard this, and asked, "The ghost story is coming to an end, what is the new story to write...... Boss Su, you should have already thought about it, right? ”

Su Wen smiled. (To be continued.) )

PS: Continue to adjust the status and strive to advance the story quickly.
