Chapter 237: Similarities

"There is nothing wrong with the plot of the original work except for the hasty ending."

"The key lies in the characterization and the details of the plot, Sue's character needs to fit her identity, she is a thief, but the dirty living environment does not blind her kindness, which is why Maude will fall in love with this woman who does her best to take care of herself."

"Maude has never been an innocent and ignorant lady, in order to escape her uncle's control, she united with the gentleman to plan this conspiracy to send Sue to the insane asylum, the gentleman's plan was seen through at the beginning, so he had no choice but to cooperate with Maude, and all the conspiracy was designed by Aunt Saxby, and she deliberately let the gentleman contact Maude."

"Everyone didn't expect Maud and Sue to have feelings for each other..."

Harvey closed his eyes and pondered over the original book of "City of Thorns", and his sensitive thoughts quickly clarified the key.

The plot of "City of Thorns" is divided into three parts, the first part is the life experience of the heroine Sue, and the second part is the life experience of the heroine Maude. The third part runs through the whole text, Sue, Maude, and the gentleman are just pawns in Aunt Saxby's plan, Aunt Saxby is Maude's biological mother, and Sue is the one who should have been the eldest lady.

Aunt Saxby was asked by Sue's mother to drop the two children, Sue's mother promised to give the two children half of the property, and now Aunt Saxby is ready to sacrifice Su, who has been raised for more than ten years, for the sake of wealth and her daughter Maude, and get the part of the property that belongs to Su

"The first and second parts of the plot are excellent, especially the plot twist, where Sue is caught in an insane asylum as if she were a gentleman's wife. Then re-watching her and Sue's experience through Maude's vision, you will find that everything she did was justified, Maude knew about this plan from the beginning, but even so, she still fell in love with Su, who took care of herself wholeheartedly, so on the night she was about to escape, she would repeatedly ask Sue if she wanted to marry a gentleman, and if Sue said even a word at that time, Maude might relented and give up the whole plan. ”

"As the third part of the plot to close the first and second parts, uncover all the truth, including the real life story between Sue and Maude..."

Harvey pondered and put together all the clues in his mind about "City of Thorns", just like "Frozen", because the twists in the middle part of the plot were so wonderful that the happy ending seemed hasty and mediocre.

"It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be changed and ended so hastily." Harvey clasped his hands and muttered.

There is nothing wrong with the plot setting of "City of Thorns", and the first and second parts can be seen as the foreshadowing of the plot of the third part, but perhaps the TV series screenwriter is too focused on the filming of the first and second parts to ignore the impact of the third part, and the third part of the plot itself is based on the reversal of the first and second parts.

"The third part should reflect the attitude of the two protagonists in the face of fate jokes, and perhaps some other plots can be arranged, such as Maude living in Sue's room and discovering Sue's diary, which contains Sue's struggle in the face of this plan and her concern for Auntie, which can be linked to the plot that Maude knows that Auntie is her biological mother in the future to increase the plot tension, so as to truly experience everything that Sue needs to take into account."

"But if you add this plot, one of the key settings in it will lose its effect, Sue is set to be illiterate, which is why I didn't find out that the books in Maude and that uncle's collection are some filthy forbidden books..."

Harvey arrived at Poulan's publishing house with the original manuscript of the second volume of The Dark Age, and it was not Harvey's first time here, but the last time he was here, Poulan's publishing house had not yet been acquired by the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce.

It can be seen that the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce has also put in a lot of effort, the entire four-story building has been bought, the name of the publishing house is hung at the main entrance, and there are constantly staff members rushing in and out, and as soon as Harvey walks in, the women at the front desk in professional attire smile brightly at him.

"Hello, I want to find Mr. Puran Garcia."

The woman at the front desk was stunned for a moment, bowed politely and asked, "Sir, do you have an appointment?" ”

Harvey was also stunned, laughed and shook his head, speaking of which, because he had not appeared in the media and newspapers, and the image in the phantom of "The Count of Monte Cristo" was very different, and many people did not know Harvey's true appearance so far.

Although the woman at the front desk didn't recognize her, the other receptionist knew about Harvey, and hurriedly pulled her sleeve and whispered a few words in her ear.

The front desk receptionist's expression stiffened for a moment, and he hurriedly bowed apologetically: "Mr. Adrian, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you, Mr. Garcia's office on the fourth floor, I'll take you there now." ”

"Thanks, no need, I should be able to find it myself." Harvey smiled politely and went to the side of the hall to find an old elevator, surrounded by iron fences, somewhat similar to the simple elevators used in construction sites, with intricate patterns carved on the floor and handrails, which did not give people a sense of simplicity.

After finding Polan's office, Harvey handed him the original manuscript of the second volume of "The Dark Age", and Polan is now also a mixed voice, wearing a black suit made by the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce, and his hair is neatly combed, perhaps because of his age, he looks like the aristocratic class of the new era.

Seeing the original manuscript of the second volume of "Dark Age" handed over by Harvey, he looked stunned, and hurriedly took it and flipped through it while complaining in surprise: "Harvey, I thought you were concentrating on making that "Frozen" Phantom, well, I have to admit that the Phantom did a good job. ”

Harvey smiled: "It doesn't take much effort to write, how is it on your side?" ”

Puran smiled smugly: "As you can see, the newspaper publication and publishing industry is developing smoothly. By the way, Count Henrietta of Norton has agreed to sell us an affiliated publishing house, but the scale is not large, and the second volume of "Dark Age" is just right, which can help me open the market on Norton's side and gain a lot of popularity. ”

"That's good, I'll go back first, and call me at any time if there is any problem."

"Then I won't keep it, I've been waiting for the second volume of "Dark Age" for months, if it doesn't satisfy me, I will definitely come to the door as soon as possible." Puran smiled at the manuscript in his hand, he himself is one of Harvey's book fans, he is not too old, and his taste is biased towards innovation, especially "Dark Age", he has read the outline, which is why he is more looking forward to the next content.

The first volume of "Dark Age" can only be described as exquisite and interesting, and from the second volume onwards it is truly a magnificent heroic epic, and he is extremely looking forward to the plot in the outline shown by Harvey's pen.

Harvey chuckled meaningfully as he left the office, Harvey himself would be here again in a few days without Puran coming to the door, but not as Harvey Adrian.

"City of Thorns" doesn't need those beautiful and complex illustrations, and you can submit it directly after it's finished.
