"Pen and Ink: Are you there?"

"Clumsy and extraordinary: in writing, in writing."

"Clumsy and extraordinary: it's time to code words, let's talk back."

"Pen and Ink: It's Not a New Book......

Clumsy and extraordinary: Oh, big guy, you say. ”

I just finished writing the Chinese version of "Seven Sins" today, and after sending the manuscript to Carol,

Ji Zhuo collapsed on the sofa in the living room, and his whole body was stuck in the sofa, not wanting to move.

At this time, when I saw the message sent by pen and ink, I moved my fingers.

"Pen and Ink: ......"

"Bimo: A media invited you to do an interview, do you have time?"

In fact, there were many media who wanted to interview Ji Zhuo before, but most of them were online media, and they didn't have much weight.

contacted the website to help tell Ji Zhuo, but Ji Zhuo asked the pen and ink to help refuse.

"Clumsy and Extraordinary: ......"

To be honest, Ji Zhuo didn't want to go.

He can be the kind of person who stays in one city for a long time and then changes to another city.

But he doesn't usually want to go out.

The most important thing is...... The trumpet is opened too much, and it becomes a habit,

Ji Zhuo didn't want to show his face...... Of course, it's actually nothing.

"Pen and ink: It's the official media. People's Daily.

Clumsy and extraordinary: state media? People's Daily? Interview me? ”

Seeing the message sent by pen and ink again,

Ji Zhuo is a spirit, so he didn't sit up from the sofa,

His first reaction was that his trumpet was exposed,

His trumpet "ABC" won the blockbuster award of the British Booker Award, which is indeed quite valuable for interviews.

But the pen and ink followed and came back to the news,

"Pen and Ink: yes. Big guy, your current achievements can be regarded as a leader on the Internet, and your works are not conventional, and they are quite different from most online works...... Do you have any questions for the interview? ”

Oh, it turns out that he wanted to fork it, but he didn't expose it.

It's purely because of his bright achievements.

Ji Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, and his body that had been upright a little bit lay back again, still slumped on the sofa.

And the pen and ink on the other side,

It feels like this 'big guy' doesn't have a clear understanding of his book results.

Putting aside the results of online serialization.

Just after the publication, the sales of a book by this 'big guy',

How many authors in China can catch up?

"Caged Bird" has sold more than one million at home and abroad, but it is still growing rapidly.

The domestic sales of "Seven Days of Hell" alone have gradually accumulated over such a long time, and they are almost one million.

There are other books that have not sold less than 300,000, or because many books have not been published for a long time, and these figures will be even more exaggerated in the longer term.

But it seems that this 'big guy' has little understanding of his achievements and influence.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Oh, that's it."

It's not that Ji Zhuo doesn't have any awareness of his influence...... He has a lot of readers.

Especially when some readers are about to turn out his new book from the corner, his perception is strong and clear.

He asked that earlier, purely because he was worried that his "ABC" vest had been leaked.

But unconsciously, he seems to be quite powerful.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: that big guy, can I care about what to interview at that time?"

"Bimo: They will inform them in advance of the content of the interview, and if there is anything that cannot be asked or said, just tell them when the time comes...... After all, it's state media.

Bimo: Also, they can come to your home, considering that you may not be willing to go for an interview. ”

It's all thought out so thoughtfully, what else can Ji Zhuo say, the official media still has to give some face.

looked around the living room, fortunately, the previous "Seven Sins" had been signed and sent.

Otherwise, I don't know what to hide when so many books are gone.

Well...... When the time comes, you have to put up the "Seven Sins" and the "Seven Sins" award-winning trophies on the bookshelf and hide them tightly.

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Okay then...... When was the interview? ”

"Bimo: Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, it depends on your time."

"Clumsy and extraordinary: Tomorrow afternoon, then.

Bimo: Okay, I'll tell you. ”

……

"Hello Mr. Ji, I finally met you, I am also your loyal reader, your "Seven Days of Hell", "Caged Bird", "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals", and other books, I have read them all."

"I didn't expect you to be so handsome and talented."

The person who came to Ji Zhuo's residence for an interview was a middle-aged female reporter, dressed very intellectually, but her speech was extremely enthusiastic and a little excited.

He was followed by an accompanying photographer.

"You're welcome."

Ji Zhuo politely shook hands with the female reporter, got out of the way and let these people into the house, and poured a glass of water.

"Mr. Ji, you don't have to be so restrained and polite, my surname is Xu, you can call me Reporter Xu."

"By the way, Mr. Ji, can you make a small request before starting the interview...... I brought a book, can you sign it for me? ”

Saying that, the middle-aged female reporter, Reporter Xu raised the book she had been holding in her hand, which was the hardcover version of "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".

Ji Zhuo looked at the female reporter and was a little silent.

It's not that he's restrained, it's just that this reporter Xu is too enthusiastic.

It's like seeing a loyal fan seeing the author...... Well, it doesn't have to be like either.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ji, I'm a little excited."

But fortunately, this reporter Xu also reacted quickly and restrained some excessive enthusiasm.

"It's fine. Just sign the 'jade artifact', this is the pen name when I wrote "The Shepherd Boy Seeks Immortals". ”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Ji. I've always wanted Mr. Motoki's autographed book, but I haven't been able to buy it. Now it's a wish. ”

The reporter put the book down for the time being with a smile and said,

"Mr. Ji, then let's get to the main topic of today's interview?"

"These are some of the questions we need to ask later, mainly because we care about some of your creative process, Mr. Ji, and many of your readers are also very concerned about this matter. This interview is mainly a text interview, and the accompanying photographer is mainly to take a photo of Mr. Ji, and then after the interview, I will also show the interview draft to Mr. Ji, and we will send it out after you are sure that there is no problem, so please rest assured, don't be too restrained, just like you usually chat. ”

The female reporter first handed over a piece of paper with some interview questions written on it.

Ji Zhuo glanced at it, there was no excessive problem, and nodded to take the lead and said that it was no problem.

The official media still has a bottom line.

"Hmm...... Is Mr. Ji usually in the study when he works? Mind if we go into the study for an interview? ”

"This way, we can also take a picture of your study, and many readers are interested in the place where you are composing."

"Yes."

The "Seven Sins" and related awards that can't be seen in the study are collected before Ji Zhuo.

Ji Zhuo nodded in agreement.

The group entered the study again,

I pressed the voice recorder,

The female reporter began the interview, and also showed her professionalism, asking Ji Zhuo some interview questions step by step.

"Is Mr. Ji usually creating in this study?"

"Yes."

"Then this is really a miracle place, because many interesting stories were born here, and of course, even more powerful is you, Mr. Ji, these stories were born from your pen."

"Mr. Ji, do you have any good methods for creation, such as how Mr. Ji usually conceives the creation of new works before creating new works?"

“…… I usually think about which genre is less likely to be accepted by the market. ”

"It's really interesting to think about the subject matter and content that is not accepted by the market and is not liked by people, and to think in the opposite direction about the new book to avoid these contents."

I don't know why......

This female reporter is quite professional, but when it comes to speaking, Ji Zhuo still feels a little tired.

"Mr. Naji, do you have any good advice for some new writers?"

"Don't learn from me."

"Indeed, Mr. Ji, most of the themes you choose are relatively biased, mainly relying on your personal ability to make the whole subject matter popular, and it is indeed very difficult for most new authors to come into contact with the creation of works of this difficulty at the beginning of creation."
