Cultural Scholar: Famous in the World from the Universal History

Just when Jiang University was busy presenting awards, editor Guan Lei was also busy.

His busy work is no longer about reviewing and revising manuscripts.

He was promoted.

His current task is mainly to contact some writers and maintain good communication with them.

By the way.

Of course, the most important task is one:

Maintain a relationship with Qin Wen and urge the draft.

However, he actually didn't urge Qin Wen to write any drafts at all.

Jiangshi Publishing House never asked him to urge Qin Wen to write a new book early.

Because compared to other writers, Qin Wen's writing efficiency is too high.

Instead, the publisher wanted him to slow down a little bit and keep the quality and quantity of new books in order.

Well, although they also knew that all Qin Wen's books were of high quality, they were still a little flustered.

So I subconsciously thought that if I gave Qin Wen a little longer, maybe I could write better.

Compared with his colleagues and bosses, Guan Lei is very open-minded.

He has won a promotion and a salary increase, and he is still worried about something.

Anyway, no matter what Qin Wen wrote, he just had to let it be published as soon as possible.

On this day 01, Jiangshi Publishing House was once again lively:

Qin Wen's new book is here!

Looking at the envious eyes of his colleagues, Guan Lei actually had a faint sense of self-satisfaction.

He couldn't say the reason for his complacency, maybe it was because he could rely on Qin Wen to win, while others could only work hard.

With an attitude of "looking down" on everyone, Guan Lei took the package back to his office.

"Bang!"

There was a sound of the door shutting down, cutting off everyone's "wolf-like gaze".

"Hehe, this old pass, it's really ......"

"Promotions and salary increases, come at will, I'm bitter!"

"Why can't I rely on a certain big guy to take me away, tears of envy ......"

“......"

Listening to the faint sound of discussion outside, Guan Lei smiled.

After the music, his expression became serious.

Although he is complacent, he knows how he got his current position.

Therefore, when it comes to Qin Wen's new book, he will be in good spirits.

Looking at the time, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

Looking at the thick manuscript again, it is estimated that it will definitely not be able to read it in two hours.

Guan Lei took out a few biscuits from his desk drawer and poured himself a cup of tea.

This is specially prepared by him.

In order to read the content of Qin Wen's new book for the first time!

"Hmph, I really thought I was lying down, and I was also dutiful. "

"Not only do I do my duty, I also take the initiative to work overtime!"

After taking a sip of tea, Guan Lei sat down and put the manuscript in front of him.

"I don't know what Mr. Qin's new book is related to, is it really a myth and legend?"

He unwrapped the manuscript and looked at it.

"Journey to the West"!

Guan Lei didn't rush to look down, but pondered for a while.

"Journey to the West, is it the story of the Monkey King?"

Although the history of this world is different, the folk tales are generally similar, and there is also a monkey who havoc in the heavenly palace.

"It seems that it should be a book that connects these folk tales in a single thread......"

Guan Lei guessed while turning the first page.

"The spiritual root nurtures the source of pregnancy, and the spiritual cultivation avenue gives birth to ......"

"It's another chapter back novel like "Three Kingdoms"!"

Guan Lei raised his eyebrows.

"Is this biased towards the ancient storytelling genre?" (If you read violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

He remembered that the storytellers in the TV series held a small wooden board, patted it gently, and said "If you want to know what will happen next, please listen to the next breakdown".

He patted his head, pulled his senses from the drifting thoughts, and continued to look behind.

The poem says:

Chaos does not divide the world into chaos

Nothing to be seen[]

Since Pangu broke Hongmeng

Open up the ...... from the turbidity of the city"

"It's coming, the familiar feeling is coming!"

"It's such a half-literate and half-white style again, almost the same as "Three Kingdoms"......"

Guan Lei was a little helpless.

In fact, he still prefers pure vernacular, because it is convenient to review.

But since Qin Wen wrote so, of course he wouldn't have any opinions.

This is his own nobleman.

He continued to look down.

“...... The smoke is scattered, and the sun and the moon shake the light. Thousands of old cypresses, ten thousand knots to repair the fence. Thousands of old cypresses, with rain in the middle of the sky, green and rising; ten thousand festivals to repair the fence, with smoke and a ravine, the color of the ......"

Guan Lei's scalp tingled for a while.

This gorgeous description, this exquisite wording......

He suddenly understood!

He understood why Qin Wen wrote this book in a half-literate style.

"This is to show off the writing and knowledge!!"

"The pure vernacular doesn't show the level, and if you connect the folk tales and write them in the vernacular, it will inevitably be cliché in the plot. "

"Nowadays, people tend to pay some attention to the wording of the novel, so that even if everyone is familiar with the story, they will still be willing to read it. "

Guan Lei couldn't stop shaking his head.

Relying on the use of words to attract readers, who dares to write like this except Qin Wen, and who can do it?

And there is a very obvious benefit to such a gorgeous but solemn and simple 563 text.

That is, it can create a real sense of mythology.

Make the characters look like real gods, immortals, and saints.

The abbreviation has a forced qualification.

It's as if Qin Wen described Patriarch Bodhi like this in the book:

"Dajue Golden Immortal is not dirty

Western Wonderful Ancestor Bodhi

......

With the sky with the solemn body

Archmage of the Tribulation Bright Heart ......"

This makes Guan Lei, a cultural person, call him a good guy.

Just a few lines of poetry directly portray the image of an ancient, mysterious, powerful and pure Bodhi Patriarch in front of the reader.

It's a feeling that's hard to describe in the pure vernacular.

And this is also the reason why many great writers dare not touch the theme of mythology, they can't write the style of mythological characters.

"Terrible, terrible...... The big guy will always be the big guy!"

Guan Lei hurriedly took a sip of tea to suppress the shock, calmed down, and then continued to look back.

The whole novel has a total of more than 800,000 words, and Guan Lei only roughly read it for the first time when he saw it when he was commuting to work at night.

He stood up, stretched, looked at the folded manuscript on the table, and shook his head and smiled.

"A writer who is a contemporary of Qin Wen is really a misfortune......."
