After the shopkeeper came back, Chi Fei took out the manuscript, "Shopkeeper, I recently wrote a new draft, I wonder if the shopkeeper is interested?" ”

When the golden shopkeeper heard this, his eyes lit up like a hungry cat seeing fresh fish, and he hurriedly walked over and said, "Interested, of course interested."

To tell you the truth, I've been waiting for you to write a new script, but it's just inconvenient to urge the draft. Seeing that you haven't moved for so long, I thought you didn't plan to write. ”

Chi Fei handed him the manuscript and said, "This is my newly written manuscript, the shopkeeper might as well take a look at it first." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll see it." The golden shopkeeper carefully took the manuscript, then sat down and read it slowly.

At first, he thought that Chi Fei was writing the same story of talented and beautiful women as "Liang Zhu", but the more he looked at it, the more he realized that things were far from so simple.

Especially when I saw that the protagonist Ji was waiting for his father on the beach at night when no one was there, he suddenly heard his father's voice faintly, and also saw a small boat in front of him.

The golden shopkeeper somehow has a feeling of cold hair standing on end. He instinctively felt that it would not be the protagonist's father standing on the boat.

Sure enough, when he saw Ji Zheng, who was swimming in the sea, was caught by a huge monster hidden deep underwater, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

It's not that he is uncommon and strange, but Chi Fei writes the whole process in great detail with a very straightforward and clear writing, and even the protagonist's panic reaction and the feeling of suffocation as if he is in deep water are written very clearly, which makes people feel a sense of immersive horror.

Especially when you think of a huge man-eating monster beneath the bottomless sea, it makes people feel even more chilled.

If you use Chi Fei's words, this is the most typical deep-sea phobia of human beings.

Why are legends and events such as water monsters and sea monsters so interesting in modern society? That's because humans have an innate fear of the unfathomable ocean and the monsters that are said to live in it, something that is engraved into human instinct and cannot be avoided.

What Chi has to do is to use words to amplify this sense of horror as much as possible, so that people can completely immerse themselves in this kind of situation.

This is the advantage of modern vernacular writing, which can describe a thing in detail in straightforward and popular language, which makes people feel more comfortable to watch.

If you change it to Chinese, the description of similar monsters may be carried over in one or two sentences, and there is a feeling of scratching your boots.

Compared with the ancients, Chi Fei has a greater advantage.

That is, there were movies in his time, and there were a lot of monster and monster movies, and he himself was a big fan of zombie movies and monster movies, and he had seen not a thousand but hundreds of films.

He only needs to pick a classic deep-sea monster movie when he haunts the scene, and he can reproduce the situation through straightforward and detailed descriptions. This is the difference between the ancients who had direct sensory stimulation and those who had not.

When he saw that the protagonist Ji Zheng was rescued by the jade pendant and successfully broke free from the monster, even the golden shopkeeper was unconsciously anxious for the protagonist, hoping that he could quickly climb onto the boat so as not to be caught by the monster again.

Finally, when the protagonist finally climbed onto the boat, the golden shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

However, things didn't end so simply, for some reason there was a sudden storm and waves, and the monster kept swimming around the boat, and it didn't let the protagonist go.

When the protagonist is very clever enough to tie himself to the mast with a broken fishing net, the golden shopkeeper is immediately amazed at the child's cleverness.

When he saw the protagonist faint, the golden shopkeeper knew that the protagonist would probably be able to escape.

Isn't this nonsense? How can the book where the protagonist really dies be written?

Sure enough, when the protagonist wakes up, he is lying next to a campfire, and there is a bearded man next to him, apparently rescued by this person.

Next, I learned from the mouth of the big man that this place is called Pounlai Island. And that deep-sea monster turned out to be a kraken that could imitate human voices and raise waves. And the protagonist's father died at the mouth of this kraken.

Seeing this, the golden shopkeeper already faintly felt that this cheeky man was a little unusual with this place called Penglai Island.

The next plot is the big man with the cheeks and the various anecdotes that the protagonist encounters while walking.

There are not only fairy-like characters who can fly with swords, but also unheard of terrifying monsters, as well as magic weapons that can become bigger and smaller at will, which is an eye-opener for the golden shopkeeper.

Even through some conversations with others, I learned that this cheeky man who looked to be only in his early thirties was in his sixties this year. It's only because of his profound cultivation that he doesn't look old.

At this time, the golden shopkeeper was already sure that this place was by no means an ordinary world, but a legendary realm of cultivating immortals.

From the mortal world to the realm of cultivating immortals, this new setting makes the golden shopkeeper feel extremely fresh.

In addition, although the writing is straightforward, it is very infectious, which makes the golden shopkeeper completely forgetful.

100,000 words said not much, said a lot less, the gold shopkeeper looked at it for more than two hours, until the guy in the store informed him that it was going to close, the gold shopkeeper woke up and found that it was dark outside.

Looking at Chi Fei, who was sitting next to him without saying a word, the golden shopkeeper said apologetically: "I'm sorry little brother, the old man is too fascinated and makes you wait for a long time." ”

Chi Fei smiled: "This is the favorite sentence of all authors, how can I blame the shopkeeper." ”

The shopkeeper Jin touched the manuscript with great satisfaction and said, "Although I haven't finished reading it yet, the little brother's new work is very well written."

Although it is completely different from the genre of "Liang Zhu", it is equally attractive and makes people love it. A good book, a good book indeed. I don't know how much money you plan to pay to sell it, little brother? ”

Chi Fei didn't answer immediately, but asked another question, "How many words does the shopkeeper think this book will probably write?" ”

The shopkeeper thought for a moment before saying, "The background of this book is extremely grand, and all kinds of characters and anecdotes are endless. Forgive the old man's clumsiness, I really can't see how many words there will be. ”

"Then I might as well tell the shopkeeper that this book is expected to write about 1.5 million to 2 million words."

"How could there be so many?" The golden shopkeeper couldn't help but be dumbfounded. That's an unheard of number of words, and it's a bit scary.

"I'm not telling you a lie, it's true. Now I'm going to answer the question that the shopkeeper just asked me, how much money do I plan to sell for the manuscript?

To be honest, I'm not going to sell this book out all at once, I'm going to share it with your store. ”

"This ......" The golden shopkeeper suddenly fell into a dilemma.

"Shopkeeper, please don't blame you for being arrogant. Although the big sale of "Liang Zhu" has given me a certain fame, I am still only a rookie author in the line of words, and I am not qualified to talk about sharing.

But this book is different from the medium-length work of "Liang Zhu", it is an unprecedented super-long work. If you count by the number of words, it is already equivalent to the amount of a dozen books written by other authors.

And the readership of this book is also very clear, mainly aimed at male readers who like adventure and rangers. I believe the shopkeeper knows better than me how large the number of readers in this group is.

Because of the successful publication of "Liang Zhu", I can trust the shopkeeper and Juyazhai, so I didn't look for other bookstores, and came directly to you to submit articles.

You can think about it and wait a few days for the kid to ask for the results. ”

The golden shopkeeper thought for a while and said: "It is indeed against the rules of our industry to let a rookie author talk about sharing.

The old man can't be the master of this matter, why don't you leave the manuscript and I'll go and show it to our master before making a decision? I'll send someone to let you know when I have any news. ”

"Okay, then it's troublesome for the shopkeeper."
