Chapter 296: How can you forget Journey to the West
"The Legend of Wukong" is achieving a big reversal, but to some extent, in fact, this is just another proof that Li Chencan can always create miracles.
The sales on the third day counterattacked, which is also a big deal in Li Chencan's career!
When many people thought that this book had no chance of selling well, and Li Chencan would begin to fall off the altar and his wings were gradually destroyed, "The Legend of Wukong" began to explode in sales on the third day of its public release with strong stamina.
The figure of more than 200,000 has smoothed out many of the previous doubts about him.
And the deep reason for such a big reversal before and after "The Legend of Wukong" is very simple, that is, the reputation of this book is getting better and better, and everyone's evaluation of this book is becoming more and more perfect.
On the pod.com, the rating of "The Legend of Wukong" reached 8.9 on the third day, which is a terrifying number, and the book has more and more book reviews and more and more praises.
Soon, everyone's evaluation of the book has been getting better and better, which is the biggest reason why "The Legend of Wukong" has achieved a sharp increase in sales.
On March 31, Jiang Kai'an took over the signed copy of "The Legend of Wukong" from Li Chencan's hands as a treasure, and he felt great.
I have liked Li Chencan's book for so long, and now it is the first time I can get his signed version, and I have been able to get the signed version of this book so closely, so Jiang Kai'an feels very down-to-earth now.
However, he didn't read this "The Legend of Wukong" on the way, because he wanted to keep the good things in his home. Anyway, today is a holiday, and he has a whole day to enjoy the feeling brought by this "Legend of Wukong".
Maybe others will think that he is wasting time like this, but from Jiang Kai'an's point of view. He doesn't think so, he only thinks that this is the best way to watch Li Chencan's new book!
Back at home, Jiang Kaian went to the room and threw himself directly on the bed, and then prepared to open "The Legend of Wukong", because this was a book signing, so the plastic seal on the surface of "The Legend of Wukong" had been torn open.
The new paper texture inside. It gave him a strange feeling.
The cover of "The Legend of Wukong" is simple, and the theme is a yellowish hue that feels like the leaves falling in autumn. With a mottled sense of time. At the bottom of the cover of "The Legend of Wukong" is a silhouette of a monkey holding a stick and lifting its head, which is at the bottom of the cover. So on top of him. It's a long, long yellowed page, equivalent to the sky that can't be seen at a glance, and it seems to indicate something that can't be escaped at all?
Jiang Kaian opened the first page and saw Li Chencan's artistic signature, then turned the next page and saw the first chapter:
The four of them walked here, and there was a dense forest in front of them, and there was no road again.
"Goku. I'm hungry, so I'm looking for something to eat. Tang Seng sat down on the stone. Said.
"I'm busy, won't you look for it yourself? …… It's not that there are no legs. Sun Wukong said with a stick.
…… So, Jiang Kai'an's reading of this book also kicked off.
He used to like Li Chencan's "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", so he was even more curious about the type of his new book...... Now that I really open "The Legend of Wukong", I feel as if I have opened another world.
The Monkey King, Tang Seng, and Zhu Bajie here are all subverted!
At the beginning, Jiang Kai'an felt that all this was a bit of ridicule and ridicule, similar to "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty...... Soon, however, when he sank into the storyline, many things were different.
It's a struggle!
A struggle against fate and reality.
In this world full of deceptions, but they want to arrange everything well, the four masters and apprentices each have their own missions, each with their own tasks.
Sun Wukong is a rebel!
In "The Legend of Wukong", Sun Wukong's rebellion is stronger and more thorough than the Monkey King in "Journey to the West".
"His figure illuminated by electric light is still frozen in the legend thousands of years later......" When he saw the description of this scene, the fate of the tragedy and the most beautiful moment of the freeze frame deeply shocked Jiang Kai'an, making him even have an urge to burst into tears in an instant.
Tang Seng is also a character who pursues the Tao in his heart, and the sentence that Li Chencan pointed out that seems to make people's blood boil, "I want this day, I can't cover my eyes and ...... anymore" came out of Tang Seng's mouth......
There is also the deep-rooted Zhu Bajie, the paranoid sand monk...... A person, after Jiang Kai'an closed the book, still seemed to be alive jumping in his thoughts, walking back and forth.
At this moment, Jiang Kai'an felt that deep in his heart, he was awakened by "The Legend of Wukong" A strong impulse, this impulse seemed to come from Wukong's rebellion against fate, but at the same time, there was a sadness in his heart, for the fate behind the characters in it......
Such some emotions collided in Jiang Kai'an's heart, and he couldn't recover from the world in the book for a long time.
However, the only thing he can be sure of is that "The Legend of Wukong" is indeed a good book, and it is an extraordinarily good book! Those who don't watch "The Legend of Wukong" because of Li Chencan's cross-border is definitely a loss.
In the evening, Jiang Kaian watched "The Legend of Wukong" a lot for the second time, because he had to make up the shift tomorrow and had to go to bed.
Before going to bed, he always felt a little unsatisfied, so he opened some related websites to check the sales of "The Legend of Wukong", only to find that the first day of sales of this novel was very limited.
Jiang Kai'an, who was full of puzzlement in his heart, hurriedly posted a good book review of "The Legend of Wukong" on the pod network, calling on everyone to read this book.
Jiang Kai was also a little uneasy because he was worried that the book's sales would not improve...... How can such a good-looking book not sell well? Fortunately, he saw that on the pod network, the reviews of "The Legend of Wukong" were not bad, and the ratings were also very high, so he was a little relieved, even if the sales were not good, the book was sought after by so many people, and it still had a future.
…… Unlike Jiang Kai'an, although Dong Xiang also thinks "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is good, he can't agree with Li Chencan's cross-border behavior at all...... I think Li Chencan is a kind of self-aggrandizement, which should not be promoted.
Originally, he was one of Li Chencan's fans, but because of the appearance of "The Legend of Wukong", Dong Xiang has also become at least the current Li Chencan's black ......
In this regard, in fact, there are many people who have a common language with Dong Xiang, they originally liked Li Chencan, but because of Li Chencan's sudden crossover, they had some feelings about him that were not very good......
Dong Xiang also doesn't plan to watch "The Legend of Wukong".
When he heard that "The Legend of Wukong" sold only 140,000 copies on the first day, he secretly exclaimed in his heart that he deserved it.
However, after that, the sales of "The Legend of Wukong" suddenly underwent a earth-shaking reversal, and suddenly the sales increased sharply, and the rating on the pod network was also high and scary.
Until the fourth day after "The Legend of Wukong" came out, his best friend, a person who originally had no feelings for Li Chencan, suddenly asked Dong Xiang to watch "The Legend of Wukong".
"What's the matter with you kid? Didn't you always dislike Li Chencan? Now you're recommending his books to me? What are you thinking? Dong Xiang said to this goods.
"Oops...... I didn't like him before, and I didn't find resonance for the time being...... But this "The Legend of Wukong", if you don't read it, it's really your loss. ”
"Is it so mysterious?" Dong Xiang didn't believe it, although his heart was already shaken......
"Really, don't you like Li Chencan a lot? I now think that the level of his "Legend of Wukong" is really frighteningly high! ”
"It's not good, I'll kill you!" Dong Xiang said, in fact, he had already made a decision, and he went to buy a copy of "The Legend of Wukong" in the afternoon.
As a result, as soon as he saw the beginning, Dong Xiang had a speechless feeling - "Why did Li Chencan tamper with Journey to the West so much?" Isn't that? Sure enough, it's a chaotic crossover! ”
But since he had seen it all, he also forcibly resisted his impatience and kept watching......
Then, when you look at it, it's dark!
Sun Wukong's spirit of resistance, as well as the words of Tang Seng inside, hit Dong Xiang's heart over and over again.
He felt as if he were the monkey trapped in his fate!
Everyone is like that...... Few people can break free from one life and one destiny.
"I have a dream, I think when I fly, that day also let the way open, when I enter the sea, the water is also divided into two sides, the gods and immortals, see me also called brothers, carefree, there is nothing in the world to restrain me, there is no one to manage me, there is no place I can't go, there is nothing I can't do, there is nothing I can't win......" Seeing this, his blood boiled.
At that moment, the dark sky was suddenly cut open by a huge bolt of lightning. Sun Wukong jumped up and pointed the golden hoop stick straight at the sky. 'Come on'! His figure, illuminated by electric light at that moment, is still frozen in the legend thousands of years later. Seeing this, he almost burst into tears!
Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, one name after another crashed into his heart, washing his heart into a thousand holes!
"How can it be written so well?"
When he closed the book, Dong Xiang was still immersed in the world world in the book, and at this moment, he felt that the world outside was different.
He used to be rebellious, but in the end, he was tightly bound by a golden hoop spell called growth, and slowly became the sand monk, the sand monk who was familiar with the world and knew the rules of the game and was tamed, and only knew that the road was looking for a goal, but he didn't know the meaning of the way to investigate......
At this moment, Dong Xiang only thought about the sentence written by Li Chencan: "How can you forget the Journey to the West?" (To be continued......)
