Chapter 388: The Noble Son Among the Thieves
The gambling contract between Lin Hu and Li Wenhan was not concealed, and under the publicity of some well-intentioned people, the news was like wings, and it soon spread throughout the academy.
Not only the academy, but even the great departure from hundreds of millions of miles away, and even countless novelists who have paid attention to it have received the news.
For Lin Hu's competition, there are those who are worried, such as his acquaintances, Cen Fuzi, Mei Yingxue and Qingyangzi, who has now been regarded as the prototype of Yan Chixia, etc., although Lin Hu is rising quickly, but after all, he is still very young, and his opponent is a veteran novelist who has been famous for decades.
If the scope of the competition is placed in the whole world, they will naturally not take Li Wenhan in their eyes, and now Lin Hu can be regarded as a rookie with a lot of fame among Confucianism, and Li Wenhan? Sorry, I haven't heard of it at all.
However, they put the place of the competition in Dali, yes, Dali.
Dali is also a place where Lin Hu became famous, the residents of Dali are no strangers to Lin Hu, under the bombardment of several books such as "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and "The Legend of the White Snake", the name Lin Hu will be paid attention to even by many old people who are not too enthusiastic, not to mention the propaganda of the Holy Dao Monthly.
However, Li Wenhan is not bad at all, if he is called by his name, some people may feel a little unfamiliar, but if you say the pen name of Mr. Yuhe, his popularity is definitely better than that of Lin Hu.
Why?
Since he was a child, he has been familiar with the famous articles of various families, and his own skills are full, and every time he starts writing, in addition to reading materials, he will visit various places to understand the beginning and end of the matter.
In this way, the stories written by Li Wenhan are not only vivid, but also make people feel immersive. Such novels are naturally easily sought after.
For example, in Lin Hu's previous life, a TV series called "Bright Sword", why was it always talked about and unique in the same theme?
A big part of the reason for this is that it feels real. It won't feel too pompous like other anti-Japanese dramas.
Second, Li Wenhan is old enough, don't look at him as a middle-aged person, but his actual age is definitely over 100, and Lin Hu's age in his early twenties is really not enough to look at in front of him.
Being old is also a kind of capital. As the saying goes, it is necessary to become famous as soon as possible, Li Wenhan wrote his first novel at the same age as Lin Hu, and after so many years, he is still tirelessly publishing new books, what kind of concept is this?
It can be imagined that Jin Yongju was ninety years old before Lin Hu crossed over, if he hadn't closed his pen and even published a novel at a certain point, he would definitely be an ancient taboo god, even if the genre of martial arts had declined. But just for his fame, even the entire website will become famous.
In the same way, the same is true for Li Wenhan, if ordinary people have a long life expectancy in their families, then several generations in the family will know about his works, which is the advantage brought by age.
In front of this, Lin Hu's advantage can be said to be gone, and some people who are familiar with the inside story also know that Lin Hu is facing more than just Li Wenhan this time.
Because Li Wenhan is standing behind him. It can be said that it is a union of the entire novelist, even if there are people in Confucianism who support it, but not to mention whether they can work together, there is a specialization in the art industry. In terms of propaganda novels, Confucianism is really no match for novelists.
Therefore, Lin Hu was still in a weak position in the early stage.
Three days later, Lin Hu, who was still staying at home, received news that Li Wenhan's new book had been published.
This news was personally delivered to Lin Hu by Fan Yi, the lord of Haoran Mansion, through the communication crystal. As the boss of Confucianism in the academy, he naturally paid great attention to Lin Hu, a junior who had become famous.
And soon, Lin Hu got a sample of Li Wenhan's novel "God Catcher" released this time.
Yes, the novel in which Li Wenhan wants to confront Lin Hu is called "God Hunter", which is a story about catching fast.
After coming to this world, Lin Hu has never underestimated anyone, even after several novels have achieved several successes in a row, he has a trace of pride in his heart, but after reading this "God Hunter", the contempt in his heart has disappeared.
There is never a shortage of smart people in the world, and from Lin Hu's point of view, the development of novels in this world is still relatively rough, not so much novels, it tends to be more biographies.
Both are written creations left by people according to their own subjective will, but the former can be fictional, while the latter needs to be based on historical facts.
The earliest "Legend of the Condor Heroes" was able to achieve great success, in addition to the fact that it is really exciting, it is also related to its novelty, and it is very refreshing to watch.
Another point is that most of the novels in this world tend to be preachy, which is also normal, novelists were not very regarded by mainstream literati at the beginning, and the rising novelists urgently need to be recognized by the world, so they will naturally write some novels that seem to be meaningful.
This original intention is good, but in this way, the entertainment of the novel will be greatly reduced, and after a long time, it will naturally make people feel a sense of visual fatigue.
In contrast, the sudden birth of the "Shooting the Condor" two-part series is like a light in the dark night in this world, and it is difficult not to attract attention.
Guo Jing's feelings for the country and the people are worthy of praise, but they will not be as offensive as the original novels, because other novels are superficial and tell you how to do it, but "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is expressed in the bones and proves itself through actions.
Li Wenhan's "God Catcher" absorbs this point, and although the male protagonist Song Guang and Song Catcher are still as glorious and upright as ever, they do not have any form of preaching, focusing on the various bizarre and twists and turns of Song Guang's stories in the process of arresting criminals.
Such a novel, even Lin Hu read it with relish, and after reading it, he had to secretly admire it.
"Amazing, this Li Wenhan dares to challenge me, he really has a lot of ability"
Although Lin Hu is a newcomer, he has a good reputation in the Dali novel industry, but there is one person who is not worse than him, and that is his vest, Tang Bohu.
You must know that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have surpassed Lin Hu in the ranking of the fine book list, and as Lin Hu's opponent, Li Wenhan will naturally not be without research.
Although Song Guang, the protagonist of "God Catcher", is in the public gate, he is taking Jin Yong's heroic path, reflecting the chivalrous spirit everywhere, and his style is also somewhat similar.
"Whew, it's a pity. ”
Li Wenhan did put a lot of effort, but Lin Hu still felt that there were some shortcomings, he paid too much attention to the chivalrous spirit, if he focused on how to catch Song Guang and find out the truth of the case, maybe it would be an alternative detective masterpiece.
It's a good thing he didn't do this, otherwise, Lin Hu would have had a headache.
"Hey, boy Lin, what the hell is going on?"
Seeing Lin Hu admiring and regretting again, the Ninth Master couldn't help but speak.
"This man is indeed powerful, but since he has made a move, I can't help but follow. ”
"Oh, have you thought about it?"
"Nope"
Hearing this, the ninth master was angry: "The soul is faint, you have no ideas, you are still so indifferent"
It is really afraid that Lin Hu will lose, in case of losing, it will be a great loss for it to seal the pen for five hundred years.
"Who said I didn't have an idea, I was thinking about which idea to choose, whether it was a similar theme or something else?"
Hearing him say this, the ninth master immediately made up his mind, and of course, he couldn't help but curse a pervert.
If you want to talk about fast catching, the influence of a "Four Famous Catches" is really good, but it only has its own advantages with "God Catcher", and it doesn't mean that anyone is necessarily better than whom.
That's it, since this time it's going to be a competition, naturally you can't pick up people's teeth, and if you want to win, you have to win the other party's heart.
I saw that Lin Hu's eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Since he writes about catching fast, then, I will write a thief's story and fight against him."
"Thief, is this okay?"
Since ancient times, thieves have always been unable to get on the stage, writing thieves is better than catching fast, Rao is the ninth master, and they all feel a little empty-hearted.
Lin Hu smiled and said, "Don't worry, this thief is different, because he is the noble son of the thief." "To be continued
