A week later, Lin Zixuan collected the manuscript written in the studio for review.

He gave these people the setting of the first episode, which can probably write about 100,000 words, but these people only wrote less than 80,000 words.

Lin Zixuan originally thought that their writing level was not good, and they didn't know how to drag the plot and irrigate, which are the two magic weapons of online articles.

But after reading it, he realized that these people fully understood what irrigation was, and that the description of the environment was paragraph by paragraph, and even a table had to be written in a large paragraph, and a lot of dialogue filled the room, making people feel as if they were chattering.

But even so, it still didn't make up enough 100,000 words.

Lin Zixuan looked at it for a while and found the reason.

The reason is that the literati of this era are too good to narrate in the vernacular of later generations, even if they are verbose, they are also verbose and very literary.

This made Lin Zixuan very embarrassed, if he wrote this kind of novel, it must be a big vernacular, a meaning over and over again, lest readers not understand.

It is no wonder that some literati have attacked his novels for their lack of literary brilliance.

It seems that it is the right thing to find these people to write on their behalf, and the novels they write are truly in line with the reading habits of readers in this era.

The only flaw is that these people's writing styles are not uniform enough and look more like patchwork novels.

This is also a major feature of ghostwriting novels, because the ghostwriter is often replaced, resulting in different styles before and after, it is easy to be discovered by readers, and someone should be found to review it and try to unify the style.

However, popular fiction is entertainment in the final analysis, and as long as the plot is attractive, other flaws can be ignored.

Overall, Lin Zixuan was satisfied, so he asked Ping Banya to continue this business model and cultivate a group of writers.

Ping Banya couldn't help but be proud, with the manuscripts provided by these writers every day, he was finally able to change the "Popular Fiction Weekly" to "Popular Fiction Daily", which was a big step forward for Vientiane Bookstore.

These novels will be published in the future, which is another income.

These authors are not limited to writing novels, but can also write essays and essays, and if necessary, they can also participate in polemics, which is the reserve force of Vientiane Books.

He seemed to see a large publishing house beckoning to him, and he was the leader of the publishing house.

At this time, he subconsciously ignored Lin Zixuan's existence.

After this incident, Lin Zixuan began to think divergently, this writing mode does not have to be limited to China, and can also write foreign novels, and it is written in large quantities.

There are a lot of novels in his mind that only know the general plot, but have not read the original book.

For example, stories like "Superman" and "Transformers", if he had seen movies and American dramas, if he had written the setting and outline, and found a group of authors who were proficient in English to write such novels, would it be successful in the United States?

Anyway, it's just a popular novel, not the kind of literary novel that needs to be carefully crafted.

Thinking about it, it is really possible, in this way, you can dump these novels in the United States, and at the same time make money, you can also influence American culture.

If Hollywood wants to shoot this kind of movie in the future, you have to ask Lin Zixuan if he agrees.

And so on, Japanese novels and manga, Soviet novels, British novels......

Lin Zixuan can dump cultural products all over the world.

Of course, this was just an idea of his own, and it would take an extremely large project to make it happen.

First of all, in China in this era, there are not many people who are proficient in English, and they can find promising jobs, so why help you write novels?

For example, Zhou Shoujuan is proficient in English, but he is the editor-in-chief of "Freedom Talk", and it is impossible for him to help you write a novel like "Superman".

Second, it is unclear whether these novels will succeed.

After all, people have different needs for reading, and novels that sell well in later generations may hit the streets in this era, so you should choose carefully.

In the end, this is a long-term plan that requires a lot of manpower and financial resources, and it is not something that Lin Zixuan can complete alone.

He needed a team that could work together for a long time.

Although there are many difficulties, for the traveler, life without challenges is too boring.

Lin Zixuan is going to do an experiment in Shanghai, where there are people from all over the world, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are a United Nations, with all kinds of different cultures and customs.

Just by finding out their reading habits, you can know what novels will sell well in their country.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the Russians.

The Russians who came to Shanghai were all refugees, and if you wrote a novel like "How Steel is Made" that admired the Soviet revolution, you would not be welcomed by them.

Lin Zixuan wanted to first experiment with the Japanese, and Japan dumped goods against China, so Lin Zixuan put the cultural anti-dumping in the past.

In 1915, the number of Japanese in the public concession had reached 7,169.

After the First World War, the Japanese textile industry invested heavily in Shanghai.

In 1923, the regular route from Shanghai to Nagasaki was opened, and the number of Japanese expatriates in the public concession continued to increase, reaching more than 20,000, and an average of five Japanese merchants were added every day.

Today, Hongkou District has become a Japanese community.

The Japanese set up schools in Hongkou, taught Japanese etiquette, built banks and hospitals, and traded in yen, so it can be said that Hongkou is no different from Japan.

As long as novels and manga are popular among Japanese people in Hongkou District, they can be sold in Japan.

Lin Zixuan did not have a good relationship with the Japanese, and it was not easy for Chinese novels to enter Japan.

He wants to find a Japanese person to act as an intermediary, and use this intermediary to dump the novel and make money from the Japanese.

He thought of a Japanese man named Maruzo Uchiyama.

Lin Zixuan knew that Uchiyama Maruzo was seen from the anthology of Lu Xun in the later generations.

What's more, when he was in school, he also studied Alei's "One Side", which is a text about the author's meeting of Lu Xun in the Neishan bookstore in 1932.

In May 1934, the Shanghai tabloid "Social News" published a short article "The Secret of Uchiyama Maru's Bottom Building" in Volume 7, No. 16, in which it was written that Uchiyama Maruzo was a small Japanese spy and received a salary of 200 yuan a month.

He also slandered that Lu Xun, who was good friends with Uchiyama Maruzo, was also a Japanese spy.

In that particular era, it was normal for tabloids to attack at this level.

For this reason, Lu Xun refuted it in the "Postscript to the Pseudo-Freedom Book".

Even in later generations, there has been no conclusive evidence for this matter, and most of it is based on the 1935 report of the "Social News".

Lin Zixuan didn't care about Uchiyama Maruzo's identity, he just wanted to find a middleman.

Judging from the information of later generations, Uchiyama Maruzo was also willing to introduce Chinese books to Japan, and he was familiar with the literary scene and publishing houses in Japan, so he was a suitable candidate.
