"If it's just a matter of current affairs, it's not a problem for us Ming Pao at all, after all, it's not a matter of once or twice that we Ming Pao publishes such articles and novels, so it's not a problem at all. But Li Sheng's novel, the scale is too grand, it is directly to start with the myths of our 5,000-year-old Chinese people, and arrange a seat for the mythological characters. Jin Yong didn't taboo this topic too much.

"Mythology?" After hearing Jin Yong's words, Shen Baoxing also understood why Jin Yong was so hesitant, this theme, even if it is a novel, is not a small number of people who can influence, compared to this theme, current affairs is really not a big deal.

Seeing that Shen Baoxing heard Jin Yong's words for a while, Li Mingbao couldn't help but feel a little envious, jealous and hateful, in terms of current affairs that he felt was a big trouble, whether it was Jin Yong or Shen Baoxing, they were very indifferent, but the novel they made out by themselves, they all felt that it was a big problem. Different seats at this station have different ideas, which is really a wise saying.

Newspapers like Ming Pao don't care about discussing current affairs at all, on the contrary, they are more active in discussing this issue, even if they favor one side and then criticize the other side, others can't do anything about them. But people like Li Mingbao are afraid to discuss such issues, and now Li Mingbao has to come up with a flood to save the emergency.

Compared with Jin Yong and Shen Baoxing's indifference, Li Mingbao only has egg pain left for himself. At this moment, Li Mingbao felt that after winning the film industry, he would have to win the Hong Kong press again, and he would have to control a certain right to speak at best, otherwise he would not be powerless to fight back when he encountered such trouble in the future.

"Mr. Cha, Mr. Shen, since it's time to eat, let's go out to eat something, and talk about the flood by the way. The significance of this book, Mr. Cha must be very clear, it may be more controversial, but as long as it is done well, then it will have immeasurable benefits for the Chinese mythological system. Although our Chinese myths are abundant, these mythological characters have always been scattered and unsystematic.

But as long as the flood can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, in the future, our Chinese mythological system, there will be a spectrum, Western mythology, Olympus mythology, although the connotation of the characters is very messy, but I have to admit that their mythological characters are very normal, which is also good for their spread. And the church mythological system, that is, the system of God, although there are few characters, but the inheritance is orderly, every character who can be said can immediately let people know what this character represents, but our Chinese mythology is not so convenient, even we ourselves feel contradictory, how can it be spread? Li Mingbao continued.

"We also understand this truth, the flood is very in line with my taste, Li Sheng, you know, I also write novels, as long as I write novels, I can't help but want to create a different history. It is a very rewarding thing to watch the characters in your novels invincible, not to mention Li Sheng's magnificent novel, which can make people's blood boil. But after all, there are so many things involved in this book, and if there is no safe way to deal with it, I don't approve of this book coming out so early. Jin Yong said.

"Okay, let's talk about this later, let's go find a place to eat first. This is Ming Pao's territory, presumably Mr. Cha knows very well the taste of the restaurant here, so I will trouble you. Li Mingbao said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll lead the way, there is really a restaurant here that has just opened, and it tastes good, since Li Sheng is here today, we will go to that one, their abalone sauce and rice taste very good." Jin Yong commented with great interest.

Jin Yong's achievements in food are naturally incomparable to those of gourmets like Cai Lan. But after many years of superior life, it can change some of Jin Yong's eating habits, and for ordinary people, the extravagant abalone sauce is nothing for characters like him and Li Mingbao.

In these years, although the resources of abalone are not too abundant, good ingredients such as two-headed abalone and three-headed abalone are not as tense as they were in the future. This is still the case for such large abalones, not to mention the small abalone in the abalone sauce rice, although the price is expensive, but it has not yet reached the point of being expensive.

Entering the restaurant, Shen Baoxing chose a small box, and then Jin Yong ordered, and in the free time before serving, Jin Yong and Li Mingbao began to discuss the problem of the flood again.

For the book Hong Huang, Jin Yong's evaluation is a strange book. If this book is really published, it may be a modern romance of the gods. But how to express it, Jin Yong has a different opinion, which has been discussed in Jin Yong's office for a long time before, and now Jin Yong is still thinking about this issue.

Hearing Jin Yong babbling about what kind of trouble there was in the book of the Hong Wilderness, Li Mingbao simply told what he had thought of a long time ago: "Don't hide it from Mr. Cha, in fact, when I finished writing the first part of the Hong Wilderness, that is, the first robbery of the Long Han Dynasty, I already realized that I couldn't write it.

Although the general content of the book was in my head, I felt a little overwhelmed when it came to each character. That's one of the reasons why I came to Ming Pao. I'm going to have some experts and professors who are experienced, or who know a lot about the characters in mythology, come together to discuss the provenance of mythological characters.

After all, it is also very troublesome for me to come up with such a huge system alone. Mr. Cha also knew that my main business was not in novels, and although I had a good idea, I didn't think I could stick to such a novel that required a lot of time and energy. In case I start to get busy again, I don't know how much time I need to write about the rest of the book.

Although it doesn't mean much to me sooner or later, for this book, I think the sooner he comes out and puts it out, the more effective it will be. The mythological system of China has also reached a time to be sorted out, no one has thought about this aspect at all before, and now that I have come up with it, I can't slack off.

When we can't let those mythological systems in the West spread, our Chinese mythological system is still a mess, which is a great lack of education for future generations. Mythology is also a kind of inheritance culture of our Chinese people, how can we not make it perfect? There are other things that people can think of sorting out, but the status of mythology is very awkward, which is very abnormal. So I don't think I'm going to be able to do it alone, and it's better to get more people involved in the compilation work. ”

Hearing Li Mingbao's words, Jin Yong's brows furrowed even deeper: "It takes a lot of money to invite so many experts, just for such a book, even if you take out all the profits, you may not be able to invite so many experts, Li Sheng, you will lose money if you do this." Could it be that Li Sheng, you are willing to give up the interests of this book for the sake of your current trouble? ”

As soon as Jin Yong's words came out, Li Mingbao's head was covered with cold sweat, and he thought that Jin Yong had forgotten about it. I didn't expect Jin Yong to raise this question at this time, it seems that Jin Yong already understood why Li Mingbao suddenly came up with a flood novel when he heard that Li Mingbao had published a book. Li Mingbao's careful thinking is not useful to Jin Yong at all.

Of course, for Jin Yong to be so straightforward, Li Mingbao also knows that there is no good way to hide it. Perhaps for the people of Hong Kong, it is difficult to take this issue into account, but for a figure like Jin Yong, as long as Li Mingbao throws things out, Jin Yong can probably guess Li Mingbao's purpose.

Fortunately, Li Mingbao knew that Jin Yong did not want to get to the bottom of which side Li Mingbao was leaning, and saying this thing was just to pave the way for cost. In Hong Kong, the vast majority of bigwigs are very concerned about the issue of cost.

The consequence of this concern is that many industries in Hong Kong are underpaid. This can be explained a lot in Uncle Six and Jin Yong. For people who pick the door, the cost is a thing that kills people.

So after shedding a cold sweat, Li Mingbao said eloquently: "Regarding the troublesome problem, Mr. Cha, you also know what is going on here. So I have some movements, and it's normal. But Mr. Cha, if you think that it costs money to hire those experts, it doesn't make sense. Even if we hire more experts, those experts will not charge money for this matter.

On the contrary, those experts who were not invited by us will scold us. You know, what we're talking about now is not just a novel, and to talk to them is to give them a chance. If this thing is done well, although it will not be famous in history, at least in a certain aspect, they will become the elite in this area, and in academics, there will definitely be more room for swipe. So I think that if you hire experts, not only will it not cost money, but they will work very hard for nothing.

Even if we have to invite not only experts, but also religious people, experts will always discuss certain figures as much as religious people know. There are many hidden things that experts from the outside may not know, but people in the religious circles may know some things that outsiders do not know in some solitary books.

Since we want to write this novel into a classic, we must comprehensively examine the relationship between these characters, and thoroughly investigate their origins and whereabouts. Only in this way can the book of Hong Huang come out to be supported by the vast majority of people, and to be able to really affect the mythological system, just a few people will be conclusive, even if the story is well told, it is just a story, and it will not be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. ”

Hearing Li Mingbao's ambition, Jin Yong couldn't help but boil his blood. After he heard Li Mingbao's explanation, he himself thought that if he participated in the discussion, he would not be able to ask Li Mingbao for money.

So after thinking for a while, Jin Yong said slowly: "If this thing is really done, Li Sheng, your desolation, will become a strange book, and its connotation value will definitely not be worse than the original history." ”
