Chapter 146: "Lu Xiaofeng" was born
These days, Yang Lin and the first batch of hardcore readers in Ye Qingran's early days, in their leisure time during the winter vacation, in addition to brushing the news of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", they are left to constantly check the micro-level of "Qingbao". Wide.
Because Ye Qingran herself has no other channels to get the news, only the channel of "Qing Pao" can know her news, fortunately, everyone already knows that on February 10, "Qing Pao" will publish Ye Qingran's new serials this year.
Speaking of which, Yang Lin turned his head and glanced at the rows of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" on his bookshelf and the final episode of "Dragon Babu" that he had just queued up to buy, and he had to say that Ye Qingran was really a very prolific author.
Compared with the update progress of other people's procrastination, Ye Qingran's "Dragon Babu" has only been completed for a few months, and the new serialization has begun to warm up, and the official serialization will begin on February 10. This speed is really unimaginable for traditional writers.
Yang Lin is looking forward to Ye Qingran's works, not only because he has confidence in Ye Qingran, but also because Ye Qingran never disappoints readers, since she said that this is a different story from the past, then there must be something different.
Early in the morning of February 10, Yang Lin got up sleepy-eyed, and he specially adjusted the alarm clock at half past eight, because the owner of the newsstand opened it at eight o'clock, but when he saw the alarm clock, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Mom, this alarm clock is broken?" It's ten o'clock now. ”
The mother outside replied, "Maybe, it's already ten o'clock, and I didn't wake you up when I saw that you were sleeping soundly." ”
"Hey! Oh no, Mom. I'm going to go out! Hurriedly put on pants and sweatshirts, and didn't even have time to put on more clothes, Yang Lin trotted to the door of the community.
in a newsstand. What made Yang Lin tangled happened.
Looking at Yang Lin, the boss had a slightly embarrassed smile on his face: "Hey, why did you get up so late, there are too many people who come to ask today, I originally helped you keep a copy of "Qingbao", but in the end a female student came and pestered me for half an hour." So the last one was given to her. ”
"Uncle!" Yang Lin had to pant and ride his bicycle to Wenxin Bookstore, which was far away from home, and the newsstands around him knew that they must have been sold out long ago.
Looking at the back of Yang Lin leaving panting, the owner of the shop took out a copy of "Qingbao" from below. Make a cup of tea, open the recliner, and sit down leisurely: "Alas, this is Ye Qingran's new story." Who doesn't want to take a first look. I'll put it away when I'm done. ”
Does this count as self-interest? As a middle-aged uncle at the newsstand, he is also a die-hard book fan of Ye Qingran, and I am afraid that Yang Lin himself has not discovered such a situation, otherwise, he would have turned back to talk to this uncle by now.
By the time Yang Lin found the bookstore, there was already a long queue in the bookstore, and the salespeople in the bookstore were a little surprised: "What's wrong?" So many people? Which writer came to sign the sale? ”
"You're new here. It's impossible not to know Ye Qingran, this is all here to buy newspapers. "There are old employees looking at the appearance of newcomers next to them. Kindly explained it for him.
"What newspaper? Buy a newspaper to have so many people come, and it's not a limited edition. Hearing the words of the old employee, the new employee obviously didn't believe it, what is wrong with the world, and there is still such a thing.
Just looking at the long queue in front of me, I'm afraid that if you don't know, you'll really think that it is a writer who came to the store to sign the sale, and the newcomer has never seen this meeting, so he was a little surprised for a while.
"You also work in a bookstore, you know, but Ye Qingran has a new serialization or a new book, this situation will be seen often, okay, go and take out all the newspapers in the warehouse, it doesn't cost much to sell newspapers, but it's not bad for them to buy some other things." The old employee patted the newcomer on the shoulder and lectured.
This scene took place in newsstands and bookstores across the country, as well as in various retail outlets, and compared to the previous one, perhaps because of the foreshadowing of the previous two years, this time the reproduction of this scene has become accustomed to many merchants. The only thing to do is to call the agent and print it, because the daily circulation of such a behemoth as "Qing Pao" can be said to be among the top five in the mainland.
In such a situation, it is difficult to have anything that affects their daily print run, but today it is different.
Maybe it's because of the popularity accumulated by Ye Qingran's previous two works, maybe it's because of the quiet readership that has begun to accumulate since the end of "Dragon Babu", or maybe it's the popularity brought by the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that has just started the second round of simulcasting, Ye Qingran's name has driven the sales of the entire newspaper as soon as it appeared on the page of "Qingbao".
"Qingbao" actually appeared in short supply for a while, and such an impact really made the rest of the industry red-eyed. But Ye Qingran has only one, and he can't dig it up, so he can only be envious and jealous of "Qingbao", people are relying on one person to boost sales, who can believe it?
Like a behemoth like Qingbao, now it relies on a writer's new serialization to boost sales, in the past, people would only take it as a joke, but now it is really happening in front of me, I have to believe it.
"It's really unprecedented, and I thought it would't be until at least the end of the Chinese New Year before the sales peak." Even the editor-in-chief of Qingbao was a little surprised after learning the news, and he resolutely agreed to the printing house's request for printing: "Of course it will be printed!" ”
Yang Lin held the brand-new "Qingbao", as if he could smell the ink on it, which was of course impossible, even if it was just printed, I don't know how much time had passed from the printing house to the sales place. Even if there is the smell of ink, it has long been cooled, and Yang Lin's cycling along the way can be described as a galloping wind, and parents see that they must definitely use it as a negative teaching material for their children.
When he returned home, Yang Lin was already sweating profusely, it was not easy to make it like this in the early morning of winter, and his mother was a little surprised when she saw his appearance: "Where have you been?" ”
"Go buy a newspaper." Yang Lin hurriedly dropped a sentence and walked into the room.
"Oh, do you want to take a shower?" Mother asked.
Yang Lin waved his palm: "I'll go after I'm done." ”
"Forget it. I'd better go take a shower first. "Bathe and change clothes first, and then sit down and take a good look, Yang Lin plans to do so. He wants to save the good things for the end and appreciate them slowly.
So, when Yang Lin came out, he found that the green newspaper on the desk was missing, and he suddenly let out a miserable scream: "Mom, where is the newspaper on my desk?" You took it for me? ”
"Your dad went in, and now he's downstairs." Seeing Yang Lin's anxious appearance, his mother was a little puzzled. saw that Yang Lin had hurriedly rushed downstairs in long sleeves.
Downstairs, my father was gathering with a group of old friends, most of whom were in their mid-forties. On weekdays, I work in a company, but today, my father shook the newspaper in his hand and told the person next to him: "This is Ye Qingran's serialization." I'll see what it's called. This time, the book is like a personal name "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" Hehe, old man Zhao, your son didn't buy it for you, but my son did. ”
"Eh, Dad, you have to watch it too, but I see this myself." Yang Lin suddenly realized that when he saw his father showing off here, he couldn't cry or laugh.
But even so. He still followed closer, and listened to his father's reading of it. Unfold it yourself and look at it again from the beginning.
"There is actually a wedge, but this time the style is not quite the same as before, is this time a transformation?" Yang Lin has been reading books for many years, and he quickly distinguishes the differences, different from the beginning of Guo Jing or Duan Yu in the past, the beginning of this new serialization mainly introduces several characters to appear.
"Ximen blowing snow, this name is really unique, and the sword will definitely see blood. Flowers are all over the building, flowers are all over the building, and such a person who is full of love for life will be a blind man, but the title of this serial book is called "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", what about Lu Xiaofeng? Yang Lin hurriedly finished reading this new serialization of several thousand words, but found that there was no chapter introducing Lu Xiaofeng, which made him a little curious, except for the last Hua Manlou saying that Lu Xiaofeng had four eyebrows, there was nothing else to describe him.
Below, there is a small teaser: the next chapter - "The Man with Four Eyebrows"
Yang Lin is happy to watch, this is an obvious suspense style, but martial arts play suspense, isn't this not very stable?
But as far as this chapter wedge is concerned, Yang Lin still reads it with relish, but in just a few thousand words, the image of Ximen blowing snow and being a lonely swordsman, the obedient of an honest monk, and the warm image of Huamanlou are all on the paper. With such skills, it is indeed worthy of Ye Qingran to be able to come up with it as a new serialized novel.
It's just that I don't know, what other people will think, Yang Lin has a hunch, this may also be a huge test for Ye Qingran's readers, after all, it can also be out at this time, Ye Qingran's style change this time is probably a bit of a suspenseful narrative style, which is completely different from the past.
"Others don't know if it's okay or not, but I'm going to keep watching." Yang Lin shrugged his shoulders and thought.
The comments on the Internet are indeed a bit explosive, one is Ye Qingran's past book fans, they feel that this wedge is really unknown, and that kind of narration is not what they are used to, after reading it for a long time, they don't know what Ye Qingran wants to talk about, they speak politely, but they wonder why Ye Qingran uses this way of writing.
The other faction is Ye Qingran's black, they were either passers-by or fans of other authors, but after reading the new serialization of "Qing Pao", they saw doubts on the Internet, so they immediately joined in. In such a situation, public opinion on the Internet suddenly became bigger and bigger, and most of those professional critics were still silent, this was just a wedge, and it was not enough to start attacking Ye Qingran.
Even so, some people who don't have to scruple so much have begun to attack wantonly, and most of their comments are named: "After watching Ye Qingran's new serial, there is only a big disappointment, a long thousands of words, not only do I not know what to do, but I haven't even seen the shadow of the protagonist." ”
"Don't you know that this is Ye Qingran's consistent style? Moreover, this all shows that it is a wedge, and the first chapter will start tomorrow. However, Ye Qingran's huge fan base played a role at this time, and there are still people who are justifying.
"But Wedge didn't even explain the background of the story clearly, where is this writing a book, it is simply writing an essay." This man's attack has reached the point of distorting at will.
Finally, after he couldn't stand it anymore, Fan Tao stood up, and he posted a new Weibo on his personal Weibo: "As an editor, I also watched Mr. Ye's new serial, and I have something to say." Perhaps, in the eyes of some people, the serial has some shortcomings, such as not explaining the background of the story clearly, but in these few thousand words, she successfully created the characters of Ximen Blowing Snow, Hua Manlou, and Honest Monk. When you close your eyes, can you imagine what the characters look like, please be more patient with Teacher Ye, I believe she will not let us down. ”
When the discussion on the Internet was so hot, Fan Tao stood up to speak, and was immediately forwarded by many netizens, compared with those sunspots, readers who were willing to look forward to Ye Qingran accounted for the majority. They're all in micro. Bo left a message below saying that he was willing to wait, as long as the plot was exciting enough,
However, some people began to doubt Fan Tao's identity, and after discovering that Fan Tao was the editor-in-chief of "Kyushu", people immediately remembered that the original Condor was not serialized in "Kyushu". Then, this Fan Tao should know Ye Qingran himself, and he is micro. In Bozhong, she is worth pondering next to the female character that is applicable throughout the article.
"Could it be that Ye Qingran is a female name?" The thought of this suddenly made many people feel incredulous. According to Fan Tao's identity as an editor, he deals with words all day long, and he should be extremely sensitive to the use of typos, so he used her to call Ye Qingran, isn't it just an accident to expose Ye Qingran's identity?
At this moment, the Internet immediately exploded, and it occupied the hot search faster than the new serial, which was the issue of Ye Qingran's gender.
Fan Tao didn't expect this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he forgot to delete this when he was talking for Ye Qingran, and now the private messages are about to swipe him.
After asking Ye Qingran, Fan Tao chose to remain silent about this, not explaining or admitting it, so that even if netizens have thousands of guesses, they can only bury them in their hearts.
It's just that for Ye Qingran's gender, the thoughts of the middle-aged man confirmed earlier can't help but be shaken at this time, although today's events are not Fan Tao's intention, but on the whole, it can be regarded as planting a seed in the hearts of the public, and sooner or later it will sprout out of the seed.

Aggravated by procrastination, it was locked in a small black room, unable to escape, and finally escaped by shutting down and restarting the task manager to kill the process, QAQ I was able to update, in the process of locking the small black room, I accidentally changed the emotional line.
