Chapter 62: A Brief Discussion on Famous Works
Lin Yuzhi's top priority is still on the silver, and he must take precautions, otherwise if there is anything else to spend, he will be very passive if the silver is not enough. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
I believe that all literate readers, in fact, will always feel very boring after studying the boring textbook-style content of the Four Books and Five Classics for a long time, not to mention that there are many people who are not interested in the imperial examination, and some people who are not good at reading, and some people who are not good at reading, prefer to read some miscellaneous books, or occasionally read some interesting articles. What's more, in ancient times, there were too few entertainment items, calling friends to drink a flower wine, listening to a play and singing a song, sleeping a famous prostitute, even if it was the biggest interesting activity, the variety and richness of books were even poorer, and there were not many outstanding works in the novel category, and the popular novels were mostly stories of some talented and beautiful people written by some down-and-out scholars, without imaginative works, people's general thinking was within a fixed framework, and even deeper, the depth and breadth of thinking were not. Therefore, at this time, if there are transcendent and imaginative articles such as science fiction, fantasy, and fairy tales, they are bound to cause widespread popularity. Lin Yuzhi believes that in any era, a good story has a selling point, as long as it can attract people's attention and the plot is exciting enough, he is not afraid that there will be no readers, and he is not afraid that his book will not sell!
Lin Yuzhi has the help of the big starting point crossing system, and he can easily get a lot of very famous novels, anthologies, all kinds of miscellaneous books, etc., such as my big starting point god "Breaking the Sky", "Douluo Continent", "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", "The Age of Reckless Desolation", etc., in ancient times, modify and promote the masterpiece of my great god, think about it is very emotional, if it works well, it will be a shortcut for Lin Yuzhi to save money. In order to enrich the reading life of the people in ancient China, I can only sacrifice the copyright of the works of the great gods in ancient times!
Now Lin Yuzhi needs a work to test the water first, and Lin Yuzhi is ready to choose from the four famous works of ancient classics that are more conservative. Lin Yuzhi's comparative analysis is as follows:
The first pass is "Dream of Red Mansions": This is a novel about the tragedy of many women, there is a market in my Great Heavenly Dynasty, but after I went to ancient times, I knew that in ancient times, women were good at reading sincerely, and the family taught and read the "four female books" respectively, "Female Commandments", "Female Analects", "Internal Training", and "Female Fan Jielu", which is also a special book for women's education by ancient rulers, aiming to expound the "three obedience" and "four virtues" advocated by Confucianism. If you give them a work like "A Dream of Red Mansions", it is estimated that it will also be classified as a banned book like "The Legend of the West Chamber" as mentioned in "A Dream of Red Mansions", and there will be very few people who dare to read it. What's more, it is a book in which the protagonist is anti-imperial examination, anti-orthodox, and disrespectful of Confucian cultural thought. As long as you think about it, as soon as this book comes out, it will be a bit of a blatant confrontation with the orthodox imperial examination education, and it is very likely that you will immediately be thrown into the camp of reactionary thoughts, and it is not impossible to go to prison at the least, or to exterminate the family and the clan at the worst! The ancient literary prison is only a few words in modern times, but only real life is here, under the rule of such a feudal class, under the total freedom of speech, daring to go against orthodoxy will definitely make people pay a terrible price.
Needless to say, the second pass must be "Water Margin": If you are a bachelor, homeless, and wandering around, you may be able to try, and you can go to Liangshan as a big deal, or be a master in the cottage, if you don't want to, it's best not to try to write, this is a book that teaches people to value love and righteousness, and if you can't fight against the imperial court rebellion! Everyone has read your book, the routine has been learned, this is your pot. Even as soon as your book comes out, it is likely to hit the street directly!
