Chapter 828 Dragon and Dungeon(1/2)
"Editor Gu, have your review results come out?"
Zhang Chu asked curiously, saying that it would not take so long before.
In the publishing company located on the South China Sea Island, Gu Xinxue is having a headache about how to reply.
I gave the result in the afternoon, and naturally the work submitted by Zhang Chu was passed!
However, the companies of both parties are negotiating and negotiating the royalties of Zhang Chu's book, and Nanhai Publishing Company wants to take action on the basis of "In the Name of the People".
Even if it is good, it has to be said to be ordinary.
Even if you pass the review, you don’t need to modify it any more, and you have to describe it as a lot of problems!
This is actually a model for the price reduction between buyers and sellers.
But Gu Xinxue is extremely contradictory in his heart. He really doesn't want the negotiations to collapse, and he will be completely insulated from Zhang Chu's works.
So he replied, "The review results are pretty good at present, and the evaluations given by the others are pretty good. It's probably going to be better in another day or two."
"Okay, the efficiency is a little slow, but it's better to be careful."
Gu Xinxue didn't want to talk about this topic. He changed the topic and said, "I saw a video of you singing on the Internet. Did you think of that song by yourself and sing the poem?"
"It must not be, I had thought about it before."
Zhang Chu did not ask the result, but he was not too discouraged. A few days in the evening were not a big deal.
He felt that Nanhai Publishing Company should not break up in negotiations with his company, so he did not think about it.
"So you can take a break recently and let your brain go out. Go out for a trip or recharge yourself or something. It's time to relax after writing so many books in a row!"
"I still have to go to school, but I want to go out and have no chance. On weekends, the attractions around Yanjing are all people."
This is probably the benefit of porters. It is easier than original works, and you don’t have to rack your brains or scrape your stomach, so you are actually not as tired as you imagined.
Gu Xinxue thought about it and asked, "Let's talk about it privately, what type of your new book is? Don't worry, this will definitely rot in my stomach."
Zhang Chu is quite grateful to Gu Xinxue. This editor can say that he is doing his best and will not misjudgment.
Anyway, he did not intend to reveal the specific plot, he just revealed the type.
"The new book club is a fantasy route."
"Fantasy? Is it an oriental fantasy like "Su Shen Ji"?" Gu Xinxue asked curiously, "Can you finally find your conscience and are ready to write a sequel?"
Zhang Chu denied repeatedly: "What kind of sequel is nothing, don't talk nonsense!"
From beginning to end, he never publicly announced that there was a sequel to "Su Shen Ji", because the wild fox under the tree never wrote the third part.
"If it's not a sequel, what kind of fantasy would it be?"
"It is a typical Western fantasy, with magic, swords, and its own worldview."
There is no fantasy in Europe and the United States, only fantasy and science fiction, and these two are often put together to award awards. For example, the famous Nebula Award is an award established by the American Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers.
Although the name of "Pi's Fantasy Drifting" contains two words "fantasy", it is not strictly a fantasy, but only some fantasy factors.
Zhang Chu chose to write this type of work mainly to stabilize his popularity around the world!
"Boyant Pi" laid the groundwork, "Detective Sherlock" opened up, and "Da Vinci Code" reached its peak.
The two new books he released this year, "The Forest of Norway" and "In the Name of People", did not help global popularity.
This reputation is hard to come by with readers. If you give up casually, it is a real waste of resources!
Foreign readers prefer books such as science fiction and fantasy, while Zhang Chu himself has not conducted detailed research on science and technology and future development trends. There is too much knowledge required to write hard science fiction!
If he travels through time in the next few decades, then he can use science fiction as a shield to show his prophet's abilities.
But he is not actually, so he can just write fantasy, maybe he can take this opportunity to become a linguist.
Not only foreign readers like to read fantasy, but Chinese readers are also passionate about fantasy books.
So this is the result of taking into account both markets!
Gu Xinxue thought about it and asked: "Is it a fantasy like "Song of Ice and Fire", or a sword and magic, princess and dragons, etc. It seems that I have played similar games before, it is a dungeon of dragons and dragons? There are many excellent types of dnds now, so you can write this."
dnd is the abbreviation of Dungeons and Dragons. dnd means building a world background based on the rules of the game between Dungeons and Dragons.
However, what Zhang Chu wanted to write was not dnd, but another kind!
But he did not correct Gu Xinxue's statement. The elements mentioned above will be presented in the new book, so let him continue to misunderstand.
When you see the details of the new book, you should understand clearly.
After all, Zhang Chu has not given a clear idea at this time, how to write this book!
The Dungeons and Dragons formed a very rigorous, huge and complex system, which is an important part of modern fantasy culture. It is essentially a form of game, but was actually born by the inspiration of fantasy literature and war chess games.
Fantasy is just a very, very small branch in the cultural field, but in recent years, it has been symptomatic of becoming popular culture. Many fantasy-type movies, TV series, literary works, and game works have emerged one after another, and have won widespread praise from people.
Ancient myths, medieval knight literature and Gothics are all sources of inspiration for fantasy literature.
Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey" are regarded as the source of fantasy works!
As the name suggests, knight literature is a work that describes the life of knights. This is probably the martial arts of Westerners.
To this day, in China's fantasy-type network, the Knight is still an element that cannot be ignored.
What we want to write next is not a book, but a complete and huge world.
So Zhang Chu must be busy!
After Gu Xinxue learned that Zhang Chu was going to write a fantasy type of work, he felt like he had a reassurance.
Nowadays, fantasy is an important type in the field of physical book publishing, and many best-selling books have been released.
He had great expectations for Zhang Chu's new book, perhaps this was another peak!
...
Now the popularity of the entire Internet is on Zhang Chu's song.
The famous music critic Erdi has always been known for his sharp words. This time, he reposted Zhang Chu's video for the first time. Unexpectedly, he did not comment on the songs of amateur amateur or amateur, but instead described it in one sentence: I didn't know the meaning of the song at first, but I was already a person in the song after listening to it!
Very high rating!
If a singer with a singing skill, voice, humanistic literacy and infectiousness sings, maybe this is the golden song of the year.
Almost all singers in the entertainment industry have seen the rise of another genius lyricist!
Behind every successful singer there is one or even multiple ace lyricist and composer.
Popular golden songs are difficult to create now, but Zhang Chu wrote three high-quality songs in just one year, and the content and style are different!
Chen Muyang, a singer who was born in the talent show, can become famous again, and even truly afford the title of Little King, after singing Zhang Chu's two songs "Wukong" and "Norwegian Forest".
For singers who sing folk songs, it’s hard to find!
Their popularity is based on one touching song after another.
These days, there are very few people who are busy writing songs, and good songs are becoming less and less.
They cannot play a few songs occasionally like young singers, and most of their time filming advertisements, magazines, and variety shows.
So this song "Once Once Slow" has become a hot topic!
Singers after singers were moved!
Not only are the lyrics and music good, but they also have their own popularity. You can gain the attention of the media and listeners without additional publicity. What a good thing this is?
Therefore, the email address and phone number announced by Nanhai Publishing Company have been captured by people in the entertainment industry!
They only have one goal.
That's asking for song!
Most people are contacting the copyright of the song "Once Once Slow".
As long as you are not blind, you can tell how beautiful, pleasant and touching this song is!
There is also a small part of me who want to contact Zhang Chu to invite songs, and other types of songs are fine.
Even Xinghui Music is busy.
As a special music company, Xinghui Music is not just a male singer like Chen Muyang. The male singers under it are probably able to make up two games.
Although Chen Muyang himself does not match the type of this song, at least he has a good relationship with Zhang Chu, otherwise he would not have received two divine songs.
Chen Muyang's agent Jin Ou was wearing heavy makeup, holding an electronic cigarette in his hand, and sat on the sofa: "My little ancestor, the company leader has spoken this time. Let's find a way to win "Once Upon a Time" to King Zhou as the first return. Although King Zhou has not released a new album for three or four years, the tours are full, and their popularity and foundation are still there. As long as you talk to Zhang Chu about this, the company is willing to let you collaborate with King Zhou to a song, which will greatly improve for you!"
"Sister Jin, are you so stupid if you smoke too much?" Chen Muyang said so hard, "I rely on my own shamelessness to pick out two songs from Zhang Chu. If you ask me to give others favors, then if Zhang Chu makes songs again, why do I have the face to ask for them?"
"This is a great opportunity! Zhou Tianwang's new album contains your songs. You just need to mention a sentence. The company will come to the details."
Jinou was not willing to miss this opportunity, even if she knew that after King Zhou returned, the company's resources would definitely focus on him.
Chen Muyang refused to let go, "I don't care what you do, I won't open this anyway."
"You kid, you don't encounter any cooperation with King Zhou every day, why are you so ignorant!"
Jin Ou was not stubborn as Chen Muyang, so he simply took out his cell phone and called Ye Shumei.
Feng Shui changed. Before, Ye Shumei took the song "Wukong" to Xinghui Music's office building to ask for help; but now she has to calm down and call to discuss the matter of "Once Upon a Time".
To be continued...
