Chapter 136: Fire Dragon Burning Plate
Historically, many theoretical breakthroughs have originated from the whims of a certain master.
For example, in the Kyushu era, Zhou Rui, the first master to invent the "Immortal Girl Incarnation Technique", was on his 100th birthday, he got up early and fell asleep in a daze, and accidentally put on the sex clothes of his 16-year-old lover next to the bed.
Then, after seven days and seven nights of retreat and meditation, a set of incarnation Dafa that shocked the world was completed, and since then it has influenced generations of Kyushu people. It's a pity that today, that set of incarnation Dafa has been completely lost, and even Wang Jiu, who is a living fossil, only remembers this thing, but he is inexplicable about the principle of his exercises.
The same situation was staged in the Shencheng Publishing Alliance, when the major publishing institutions were anxious about the breaking of the Sansheng Stone, the passing master Wang Jiu woke them up with a word.
Why not use the gunslinger?
After a long silence, many publishers only felt a sudden light in front of them!
Yes, you can replace it with a gunner!
The pen name Sanshengshi has never been officially registered, but the manuscript will be marked with Sanshengshi, and then there will be a manuscript fee account on the back. Then everyone has always followed the tacit agreement and did not abuse the pen name of Sanshengshi.
Now that Sanshengshi himself has been cut off for so long and completely lost contact, it seems that it will cause serious hunger and thirst in the spiritual world of countless people, which will cause social instability...... Then it's no wonder that everyone is unscrupulous.
Although in terms of creative quality, those unsung heroes who are often hidden behind celebrities are naturally far from being compared with the genuine Sansheng Stone, but in this era when everyone is cultivated by Sansheng Stone to read inertia, the decline in quality is not a key issue. Nowadays, the sign of Sansheng Stone is so loud that even writing a lump of excrement will be regarded as an outstanding innovation in modern art......
What's more, the decline in quality can also be compensated for with clever marketing techniques, for so many years, Sanshengshi only focuses on the creation of the content of the work, and the rest of the marketing methods are not contacted, which makes countless publishers grit their teeth with hatred - don't let go of the opportunity to make more money, only earn that idea manuscript fee, are you too much money to spend!?
And now that the gunner is enabled, there are many marketing methods.
The simplest is the advertising insertion - in the future, the head of the Li family's dog will be cut off from the cold iron kitchen knife of Liu Ji's blacksmith shop in the southeast of Shencheng, the decomposition of the corpse is Zhang Ji's plate axe, the cooking of the corpse is Cai Ji's cast iron cauldron, the transportation of the corpse is the suitcase of the Mustard Family, and the final burial of the corpse is the beautiful and remote Dongshan Natural Scenic Reserve.
Just this one plot of killing people and dismembering corpses, you can earn a lot of advertising money!
In addition, there is also adaptation linkage, before publication, you can throw out many concepts such as film and television, albums, music, cross talk, stage plays, etc., and then match a few popular fried chicken as spokespersons, quote an astronomical amount, and you can sit back and wait for the capital to come to buy the whole plan.
In short, once this name is liberated, a lot of money-making opportunities can be used arbitrarily!
So much so that many people will wonder this question after suddenly becoming enlightened: What did we do early!?
And once these shrewd businessmen opened their brains, their action became extremely amazing, and they had already grabbed their trump card gunmen to build a team that afternoon and began to create collectively. On the third day, Shencheng's largest publisher had completed the first draft of a 200,000-word short story. On the fifth day, a small publisher actually rushed out a long story of 800,000 words, and the gunmen's studio was crazy about the speed, and the quality was of course predictable.
But in any case, after all, the thing was made, and several publishers pieced it together, and in the past few days, the total creative volume of the gunslinger studio has caught up with the pen of Sanshengshi for more than two years. And the publishing alliance has also thought of the next step, integrating all the manuscripts into a hodgepodge of literary gift packages, in the name of three years of grinding a sword, implying that in the past three years, he has been secretly planning this gift package in addition to serializing stories, and now he is dedicated, hoping that readers and friends will like it.
As soon as this commercial promotion plan was proposed, it was unanimously praised by the giants of the publishing alliance, as if the headquarters building of the publishing alliance was lit up with thousands of dollars of wealth, and the spiritual food crisis of Shencheng and even the entire Xiangzhou people will also be greatly alleviated.
As for after this plan, will Sanshengshi's pen name be badly reviewed...... Anyway, if he doesn't create again, then the pen name will be the same as dead, and everyone will just play a surplus value. If he will continue to create in the future, then the pen name will always be whitewashed one day.
All in all, it is difficult to expect businessmen to be able to really have a conscience.
The plan has been decided, and all that remains is implementation. On the evening of April 12, the publishing alliance transported the original jade plate with all the manuscripts to the largest military printing factory in Shencheng, and the next morning, the publishing giants will collectively attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the printing plant, and in just one day, more than 20,000 sets of literary gift packages can be printed from the production line, and distributed to the entire Xiangzhou through various channels in three days.
However, on the morning of April 13, when the giants gathered in front of the printing house to prepare for the ceremony, they saw the person in charge of the printing house with a pale face, staggered over, and said a news like a thunderbolt from the sky.
"Plate, plate is gone......"
It took a while for the giants to realize what it meant that the disk was gone.
"The primordial jade plate is gone!?"
"What, stolen!?" Several giants suddenly jumped three feet high, and the original jade plate contained nearly 10 million words of Sanshengshi's works, if it was stolen at this juncture, it would be printed and sold first......
Goo-dong.
An elderly publishing giant fainted without saying a word.
Seeing this, the factory director hurriedly shook his head vigorously: "It was not stolen, but ...... Ruined. ”
"Ruined?"
The factory director cried and spread his hands, only to see a piece of pitch-black coke in his palm, faintly exuding a trace of dull brilliance.
"This ...... Jade plate? ”
The factory director said: "Yes, somehow, the warehouse where the jade plate is kept suddenly caught fire, I heard that there was a fire from the sky, like a thunderbolt hit the warehouse, burning everything to a mess, we workers tried their best to extinguish the fire, and the jade plate has been ......"
Looking at the wreckage of the jade plate in the palm of the factory director, everyone was speechless for a while.
After a while, a knowledgeable old man spoke, trembling and asked, "Could it be the fire dragon burning plate?" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden gasp.
The fire dragon roast plate is a very famous allusion in the literary world. Hundreds of years ago, there was a great writer named Kong Zhang in Xiangzhou, who wrote half of the popular serial "Taiping Ji", and his popularity swept through Xiangzhou. However, his temperament is lazy and bad, and the serial plot is reaching a fascinating point, and it comes to an abrupt end, and there is no follow-up since.
Readers complained about it, insulting them in person, mailing blades, burning physical books and portraits of Kong Zhang...... Kong Zhang is naturally extremely weak about this, and every time he encounters criticism from readers, he promises to finish the book as soon as possible. However, for a long time, the second half of "Taiping Ji" has never come out, and people have never seen Kong Zhangfen writing books, only to see him drinking the blue of famous wine dreams at home, drunk and dreaming of death all day long, and being hollowed out by wine early.
As a result, Kong Zhang's reputation was naturally bankrupt, and people did not believe that this greasy middle-aged man who had been reduced to a wine bag and rice bag could write a masterpiece. For a time, the former writers became a big joke in the Xiangzhou literary circles, and the wealth accumulated by half of the masterpieces was soon lost in one empty wine bottle after another.
Later, when Kong Zhang died of hunger and cold, he confessed his last words.
It turns out that the second half of the Taiping Ji has already been written, but the content of the book hurts the heavens and harmony, and every time the book is written, a fire dragon will fall from the sky, burning the jade plate, making the manuscript unable to spread, and no matter how he changes the means, as long as the core of the content does not change, the fire dragon will fall from the sky when the book is written. After several times, Kong Zhang finally gave up the idea of competing with the sky, and also gave up his literary dream, and let loose under the anesthesia of alcohol.
Since then, the fire dragon burning plate has become an allusion that has been circulated in the Xiangzhou continent - those manuscripts that hurt the heavens and harmony will be burned by the fire dragon and will not be seen in the world.
Now, when this Sanshengshi literary gift package was about to be printed and distributed, it was suddenly burned by the fire dragon, which naturally reminded people of that allusion.
Carefully speaking, they found a gunman and occupied this gift bag created by other people's pen names, which did hurt Tianhe a little, and if they were punished by Tianhuo, it would be reasonable.
Therefore, as soon as the old man's fire dragon plate came out, it caused the sound of gasping and cold air one after another.
However, at this moment, someone snorted coldly: "I think someone is pretending to be a ghost!" How can there be any fire dragon burning plate, there is really any heavenly way fire dragon, why don't you come and burn me? The whole business plan was approved by me, and it should have burned me! Check it out for me, check hard, who is hindering us from publishing a huge book, who is harming the spiritual paradise of the entire Xiangzhou people, we must find out! ”
On the same day, the publishing alliance reported the matter to the government, and then invited several detective masters to look for clues at the scene...... It's just that after a busy night, several masters said with shame that there were no suspicious traces left on the scene, and everything seemed logical, as if it was really the way of heaven.
The next day, the second original jade plate that the Publishing Alliance urgently produced was also destroyed by a natural fire in the warehouse.
For a time, the fire dragon roasted plate seemed to be turned into reality by mythological allusions, causing panic in people's hearts.
