Chapter 261: The Distress of Publishing a Novel
After a night of talking, Li Junyao was obviously in a very happy mood, even if he was already on the branches, he had no intention of getting up.
"Lin Jun, in addition to your works, although there are not many, they can all be called high-quality works, even if it is that kind of vulgar limerick, there are merits, as for the novel, although I have not studied it deeply, but after reading it, I also have a sense of spiritual shock. ”
"My favorite is "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", the spirit of 'life can't be the same, death must be the same cave', I think even a piece of rotten wood can't be indifferent!"
"With this article alone, Lin Jun, you deserve to be called everyone in the novel!"
Hearing such praise from a poetry bigwig like Li Junyao, even Lin Hu's state of mind at this time could not completely remain calm.
What does this mean, this shows that his works have been affirmed by the world, Lin Hu does not doubt the popularity of his novels among ordinary people, this has been proven in his previous life.
The only thing that cared to him was the opinion of those martial monks, after all, the power of faith provided by those ordinary people was far inferior to that of monks in terms of quality.
For example, the power of faith provided by Li Junyao alone is far superior to that of tens of millions of ordinary people, and this is because he is not a fanatical fan, otherwise, the power of faith he provides would have to be ten times more.
This is the value of a true monarch, although the other low-level monks are not as fierce as the true monarch, they are still dozens of times that of ordinary people.
"However, after reading Lin Jun's novel, my whole person is not good. ”
"Huh?
Lin Hu had some doubts, could it be that the plot was too sadistic? No, a strong man of this level wouldn't even have this ability to bear it!
"After reading Lin Jun's novel, I felt a little unfinished, so I found a few so-called food and grass masterpieces recently. Otherwise, it is ruthless everywhere and sowing seeds everywhere, compared with "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "A Chinese Ghost Story", it is really vulgar!"
"Go on like this. I don't think this novelist wants to rise, and in the end, he may be replaced by a Confucian disciple like Lin Jun!"
"Uh......"
Seeing Shijun's appearance, Lin Hu was also stunned, he didn't expect that this kind of literary and Taoist boss would be as short of books as an ordinary book lover. Spit out.
So, Lin Hu said tentatively: "It's not all like this, I heard that there was a gentleman surnamed Tang a while ago, his "Shooting the Condor" two-part series is very good, it is said that within a few months, it will be popular all over the entire Dali, and even the surrounding countries have been greatly affected, I don't think it is a waste of fame!"
Forgive Lin Hu for the little Jiujiu in his heart, he promised that he just wanted to recommend a few books of grain and grass to a reader who was short of books.
Behold. Li Junyao pouted and said: "Although this one is better than the others, he still lacks that kind of poetic beauty, the food is tasteless, it's a pity to go, compared to the novel, in fact, I am more interested in the poems in the novel!"
Well, it seems that Jin Daxia is not omnipotent, Lin Hu just thought about it for a while, and he knew it.
Everyone has their own tastes, if it is those chivalrous warriors who come and go in the wind and rain in the rivers and lakes, or they are just starting out. The little people who are eager to become famous naturally like those martial arts novels that are close to them, but if they are talented and beautiful, they are young people like Shijun. On the contrary, I prefer works like "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai".
This Lin Hu can't help it, he can't change everyone's outlook on life and values, the only thing he can do is to write more works that satisfy the vast majority of people.
However, Shijun only complained a few words about the "smoky miasma" of the novel world. He is also a half-Confucian disciple, and he has neither the ability nor the obligation to change the status quo of other novelists, in fact, it is already a good thing to have a few works that satisfy him once in a while.
Speaking of this, Li Junyao's voice suddenly changed, and said, "Lin Jun, when will your new work come out, otherwise you will be bored for a while." ”
Hearing this, Lin Hu smiled proudly: "Unfortunately, I really finished writing a new book recently, but I haven't had time to publish it yet." ”
"Oh, but really? Looks like it's a feast for the eyes again. ”
"However, having said that, Lin Jun, the circulation of your works is still not wide enough, if it weren't for the fact that I read your "Will Enter the Wine" in the "Holy Dao Monthly" and became interested in you, "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" would have missed me, and I don't know how many years later, I will be able to see it. ”
"This ......"
Lin Hu was speechless for a while, in fact, the problem of choosing Qingfeng Study also came out.
Qingfeng Study is still a behemoth for the current Lin Hu, but their scope of influence is still too small.
In Dali, every town with more than 100,000 people will have a branch of Qingfeng Study, but if it is out of the scope of Dali, the influence of Qingfeng Study will be sharply reduced.
Take the earliest "Legend of the Condor Heroes" as an example, after more than two years of dissemination, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is now a well-known story in Dali, even those relatively remote countryside, under the singing of storytellers and caravan knights, it has gradually been known to the world.
Now, if you ask a vegetable seller in a big city who Guo Jing is, she will answer that you are a stupid boy who knows how to descend the dragon and eighteen palms, and if you want to ask Yang Guo, she will also say that she is a one-armed hero with a big bird.
This is the current situation of the "Condor Shooting" two-part series in Dali now, in addition to their own excellent quality, it is also inseparable from Qingfeng Study.
However, out of the land of Dali, only "The Condor Heroes" was about to sell out in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and other surrounding dynasties such as Daji and Dayue, except for those areas bordering Dali, the rest of the "Condor Shooting" two-part is still not particularly familiar.
This is not to say that other regions don't like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", in the final analysis, this world is still too big, just a middle-to-low Dali dynasty has an area of more than 10 million miles, not to mention other larger dynasties.
In this world, there is the existence of the Mo family, and some technologies such as transmitting crystals and flying boats are even far beyond the world of Lin Hu's previous life, but these things are difficult for ordinary people to access, and the contact with information is relatively slow.
It's not impossible to rely on word-of-mouth to spread novels like "Shooting the Condor", but not to mention the extremely low efficiency, the story will be passed on to the end, and it is estimated that it will have long been out of the original!
Lin Hu didn't know this problem, but he had no way to change it, although there were many powerful forces in Gaine Dali who had the strength to publish novels, but the most powerful ones were only a few, and Qingfeng Study was one of those ones.
Other bookstores with a novelist background may be stronger than Qingfeng Study, but the strength is also limited, Lin Hu, a Confucian disciple, might as well choose Qingfeng Study, which has a Confucian background.
Seeing Lin Hu's depressed appearance, Li Junyao naturally couldn't help but ask, but when Lin Hu told the story, he laughed out loud: "Lin Jun, why bother, what do you think of my Jixia Academy?"
"Kishita Academy?" (To be continued.) )
