Chapter 427: Xianxia and Detective Novels
She thought about it for a long time. In the end, I chose this one.
First of all, the four famous books cannot be written. Needless to say, "Water Margin" is also an anti-feudal book. Sun Monkey's spirit of rebellion and lack of control is not liked by the rulers. At a time when the political factional struggle is raging at this time, if she wants to write a book like this, maybe someone will use it to attack Guan Le and the Guan family - what about being neutral, if you can't use it for me, I'm going to trample you down.
As for "Dream of Red Mansions", it can't be touched. After Guan Jiayu saw the love between Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, she was going to fall in love with "a good-looking and talented foreign man". When the time comes, the majority of parents will come to cut her with knives, and she can't hide from it.
And "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" involves too many power struggles, she wrote a book like this at a young age, so that the old foxes in the court sighed to themselves, she went to the court in the future, how to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger? Besides, she is so wise and close to the demon, maybe someone will catch her and slice her and set her on fire.
Anyway, you can't write any book that causes trouble.
In fact, even martial arts can't be written. Chivalry violates the ban with force, adding many discordant factors to the society, which is also disliked by the court and the common people. So even if there is no work to follow the trend now, she plans to take advantage of the fact that the entire social atmosphere has not been affected, and she will stop after writing these three books.
Therefore, it is better to cultivate immortals, cultivating immortals is the safest. After personal efforts, he has risen to become an immortal, and he has nothing to do with anyone in the real society. Maybe the bull-nosed veterans will still use her as a confidant.
And from mortals to immortals, there must be a process for everyone to adapt. Is there anything more suitable than "The Legend of Mortal Immortal Cultivation"?
has written two or three million words of martial arts, and she is really skilled in writing this kind of half-written words now. By the time Yao Shuqi led the two scholars to knock on the gate of the courtyard, she had already written almost a thousand words.
"Come in." Du Jinning raised his voice, washed the pen and put it away, and looked at the two people who followed Yao Shuqi into the door.
"Young master, this is Lu Wen, who wrote the book "Jade Hairpin". Yao Shuqi pointed to a tall and thin man in his forties, and then pointed to another man in his thirties, "This is Shi Shaocong, who wrote the book "The Biography of Heroes and Heroes". ”
Du Jinning nodded and pointed to the stool: "Sit." ”
After the three of them sat down, she asked Yao Shuqi, "How are the sales of these two scripts?" ”
The eyes of both of them fell on Yao Shuqi.
Yao Shuqi said: "Among the many books, they belong to the category that can be sold, but they only sell one or two hundred copies overall. We make a small amount of money by digging out the costs of printing, paving, labor, etc. Therefore, the price of each script for them cannot be very high, and one or two pieces of silver will reach the sky. ”
Du Jinning looked at the two: "Have you thought about what the reason is?" ”
Shi Shaocong stood up and said excitedly: "It's because my level is not enough." I learned the writing method of the most popular martial arts book written by Young Master Du today, but the level is not enough, and the written book is small. Compared with Young Master Du, your book is like fireflies and bright moons. So when Shopkeeper Yao mentioned that I could learn to write a script with Young Master Du, I was so excited that I didn't sleep for several nights. If Young Master Du can instruct me to write a good script, I would rather not have silver. Please also ask the young master to give me advice. ”
Lu Wen is obviously a chronic person, and when Shi Shaocong finished speaking, he stood up slowly, and his tone was unhurried: "What I write is all old themes, and there is nothing new." ”
Seeing that both of them could understand their own problems, Du Jinning nodded with satisfaction and said, "I will tell you two stories, you can write them out and show me." ”
She said to Shi Shaocong: "This story is called "Purple Mansion Immortal Yuan". So I told him the background and character setting of the whole story.
The reason why she chose this story is because it is not long, which is more suitable for Shi Shaocong, a novice. Chapters like "Immortal Rebellion" are too long, and Shi Shaocong can't grasp them at all. asked him to follow the trend to write Xianxia, also because Shi Shaocong is more enthusiastic and can write the fight scenes with enthusiasm.
Shi Shaocong was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Don't worry, Young Master Du, I will definitely write well." ”
Du Jinning turned to Lu Wen again: "The words of talented and beautiful people can't be told in the teahouse." Do you want to keep writing about talented and beautiful people, or do you want to rewrite something else? ”
"Something else." Although Lu Wen spoke slowly, he was not slow to express his attitude, and his attitude was very resolute, "If you can get the guidance of Young Master Du, I am grateful." ”
Du Jinning nodded: "Are you willing to write the story of the criminal case?" ”
Lu Wen was stunned for a moment, then rejoiced, nodded vigorously, and spoke a little faster; "Willing to write, willing to write." He smiled and slowed down, "I saw a little story about criminal cases before, and I liked it very much, and I wanted to look for it again, but I couldn't find such a story anymore." The words are very regretful.
He raised his eyes and looked at Du Jinning: "But I won't write criminal cases." ”
"It's okay, I'll tell you."
Du Jinning first told Lu Wen about the setting of Sherlock Holmes and Watson, and then told Lu Wen about a case in "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection". Of course, she changed her background to China, Sherlock Holmes became Fowl, and Watson remained Watson. As for Lu Wen listening to this setting and story synopsis, how to recreate it, and what to write this story into, that is his own business.
This is actually the reason why Du Jinning is reluctant to write this story.
First, she is young and has never been exposed to any cases, writing this kind of story will make people suspicious, and being known will also have an impact on her reputation, and others will wonder if she has killed someone, otherwise how can she write this kind of thing so old-fashioned?
Second, this story is created by herself, and she will inevitably be affected by the original work, and the story written will definitely make people feel weird. Lu Wen was born and raised in ancient China, and after he recreated this story, it became an authentic Chinese story.
Lu Wen obviously likes detectives very much, and his eyes lit up when he heard Du Jinning tell this story, and when Du Jinning finished speaking, such a chronic man couldn't wait to stand up and asked Du Jinning: "I don't know if Young Master Du has anything else to say?" If not, I want to go back to writing a script. When the time comes, I'll write it and show it to Young Master Du. ”
Du Jinning could understand his mood very well, and waved his hand: "Go ahead." Seeing Lu Wen turn around, she said again, "But I'll go back to Lishui County soon, and it is estimated that I will come back in twenty days." Don't worry, think slowly, and strive to write successfully the first time. ”
