Chapter 11 What Is It? The World Has Been Led Astray by Me? (Down)
The first part of "The Battle of the Green Grassland" went on sale without warning.
In the past, whenever Lu Yuan released any work, he would make a wave of Weibo promotion, creating a huge wave of enthusiasm.
But this time...
Lu Yuan was surprisingly very quiet, except that the publisher and various units labeled this novel as ""The War of the Green Grassland", produced by Lu Yuan", and there was not even any promotional activities.
You can't even see any photos and text introductions on the author's introduction page.
You can't even see any popularity online on the first day.
Even when the new book was hung on the shelves of major Xinhua Bookstores, readers immediately thought it was a book written by an author with the same name and surname as Lu Yuan.
Why?
so low key...
Even if you write the words "produced by Lu Yuan" on the cover...
but……
Is this Lu Yuan?
Certainly not!
After all, didn't Lu Yuan's works always come out with vigor and explosion?
This time there is no publicity or news, everyone thinks it is impossible, okay?
And the name "Green Grassland Warfare"...
It really sounds a little inexplicable, and it's not even as vivid as "The War of the Green Hat in the Hulunbuir Prairie"!
Right?
Kids don't say much, but at least some adults give the name a second look...
Ok.
Maybe I will read a copy to see what it is about.
……………………………
"Mr. Lu, are you sure you don't want us to do any publicity? The sales volume on the first day was barely more than 10,000 copies..."
"No,
No. "
"Mr. Lu, do you want to see the market's reaction to the quality of this book itself? Let the market test it?"
"Well...well...let's see."
"Okay, listen to you."
On the first day, the sales of the book "Battle of the Green Grassland" were very weak. Although it is not a hit compared to ordinary books, this is a book written by Lu Yuan!
"The Collection of Lu Yuan's Fairy Tales" has now sold over 10 million copies, and now this book has sold more than 10,000 copies on the first day.
This huge contrast is really unacceptable.
So, Yang Susu made a call to Lu Yuan. She more or less hoped that Lu Yuan could promote it on the Internet, or that Lu Yuan would allow them to advertise with the organizer...
Otherwise, not many readers will pay for it.
However, it was rejected by Lu Yuan.
Yang Susu thought for a long time and couldn't figure out why Lu Yuan, who had been keen on publicity before, refused, which was obviously very unreasonable.
finally……
He could only come to the conclusion that Lu Yuan wanted to read this book without relying on his own name to see the market response.
follow-up?
She felt that Lu Yuan would still make some fancy publicity.
After all, Lu Yuan's works have never hit the streets, have they?
In fact, she didn't know that Lu Yuan didn't want to see the reaction of the market, but when he thought of some quite fabricated stories in it, Lu Yuan felt a kind of embarrassment from the bottom of his heart.
Many stories are anticlimactic, and even changed to such an extent that even Lu Yuan doesn't know how to follow up.
Cough cough, so many messy stories kneaded in one world, and then so much gossip to messy plot.
This is really...
cough cough.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan's whole body trembled.
Then, I suddenly regretted that I published this book.
…………………………………
Ren He is a great martial arts writer on the "Tianxia" website.
His pseudonym was "The Unspoken Elbow".
It was once famous in the entire Internet literary world for a humorous martial arts novel called "Killing a Thousand Swords", and it has been adapted into a TV series, and the ratings are not bad.
but……
As time progressed, Ren He suddenly realized that traditional martial arts novels had gradually come to an end, and all aspects of data and subscriptions began to decline irresistibly.
He is not an idiot, he understands that he needs to transform.
The routines of martial arts are basically fighting swords in the arena in the end, and the chivalrous fighters fight for righteousness and retreat to the arena. The better written martial arts writers incorporate some philosophical colors...
However, no one feels that they are overwhelmed.
After all, a single routine, coupled with aesthetic fatigue...
Everything says something has to change.
But where should the transformation go?
Ren He didn't think about it for a while. After all, the current environment is like this. Although there are gradually so-called innovations in Xianxia novels, Ren He feels that there is still something missing.
Ren He was at a loss.
On this day, I passed by Xinhua Bookstore as usual, hesitated for a while, and finally walked inside.
He thought that his son Ren Xiaoli had already started babbling at such a young age, and he needed to prepare some children's books for his son, and teach him how to read by the way.
When he came to Xinhua Bookstore and was bored, he kept looking at some children's books, hoping to find a similar one, but because he was a writer himself, when he saw those children's books, he It was strangely boring.
The routine is too single, and there is basically no story or even content in it.
never mind.
It seems that all children's books are like this, so just make do with it and buy one.
Just when Ren He shook his head, he suddenly saw a novel with a strange cover and only a puppet image on the bookshelf.
The name of this novel is "The War on the Green Grassland".
"Green Grassland Warfare"?
What a strange name.
Ren He was stunned, and then subconsciously opened the first page of the book.
The first story is called "Gourd Baby and Seven Little Girls"...
Ok?
This is the same as the title of the book, it is a very strange name!
By coincidence, Ren He read the story of "The Gourd Baby and the Seven Little Girls", and then...
He found it out of control.
Time passed little by little.
Three hours later, Ren He saw in a trance, "A big gray sheep in Yangcun was looked down upon and roared angrily for Thirty Years of Hedong, Thirty Years of Hexi Mo bullying young sheep and poor!" After this chapter, he Suddenly, I felt my blood boil.
Then……
When he turned to the next page expectantly, wanting to see the follow-up plot, he found that he had already written the last chapter.
next page?
The next page is gone.
This "Qingqing Grassland Warfare" actually only has the first volume.
He turned the first page again in a daze, and at this moment, he had the feeling of opening the door to a new world.
Then!
His eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized that future martial arts novels can indeed be changed, and routines can also be changed!
This "Green Grassland Warfare" is a living template textbook!
Then, he looked around again...
It was really hard for him to believe that this "War on the Green Grassland", which was full of various routines, turned out to be a children's book.
This is really incredible!
Then, he saw the words "produced by Lu Yuan"...
He was also taken aback, but he didn't think too much about it, thinking it was just a coincidence of a pseudonym.
"No, such a book cannot be buried!"
"I want to promote it."
"Yes! Promote it..."
…………………………………
There is a lot of bullshit in this world.
At least Lu Yuan felt that the occurrence and results of many things were beyond his expectations.
Two days later, when Yang Susu told him in a very excited voice that the book "The Battle of Qingqing Grassland" sold 100,000 copies in one day, Lu Yuan was shocked.
One hundred thousand volumes!
This is a statistic that even Lu Yuan finds incredible.
After all, the book was never advertised, not even advertised by himself...
but……
From 10,000 volumes on the first day to 100,000 volumes on the third day.
How did this happen?
Is there no such thing as fake?
"Mr. Lu... "The War on the Green Grassland" is different from "The Collection of Lu Yuan's Fairy Tales". This "War on the Green Grassland" is not only a children's book, but also an adult book. Moreover, the group of Internet writers are all in Spontaneously advertised for this book, and recommended it...many readers already know about this book "The War on the Green Grassland."
"what?"
When he heard this, Lu Yuan was stunned again, and then clicked on Weibo.
Unexpectedly, the number one search in the book section of Weibo is "The Battle of Qingqing Grassland"...
He clicked in and took a look.
…………………………………
""The Battle of Qingqing Grassland" is not just a children's book, I thought it was nothing at first, but when I opened the first page, I couldn't help being attracted, I saw the end in one breath, and then Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, after the words came out, my blood boiled instantly... I really hope to see what kind of counterattack plot will follow up, um, I can’t sleep with anticipation I feel... um, so, please recommend this book, it is a good book!" The well-known Internet martial arts writer Elbow wrote a long article on Weibo very seriously recommending this "The War of the Green Grassland" ".
After the recommendation, the following series are all likes and reminders of approval.
"I seem to see a new way of martial arts novels in the future. I admit that my new book, in a sense, borrows from this novel "The War of the Green Grassland". It is like a key, opening a new The gate of the world..." The well-known internet writer "Qing Shi Drunk" also posted a Weibo without saying anything. While promoting his new book, he couldn't help but x-on: this "Green Grassland War"...
"I'm also writing a new book, and my new book is called "The Horse Breaks the Sky"! The first chapter, Ten Years in Hedong, Ten Years in Hexi!" The famous Internet writer Wu Niubu also kept up with the wave of rhythm.
"The strong rise up against the sky, and my novel "Invincible Crushing" is also online..."
"..."
"..."
On this day, as if it had been agreed, a series of well-known writers in the online novel circle all published new books one after another.
Two days later!
The "Tianxia" Chinese website, which was originally full of martial arts novels, suddenly sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and instantly launched a series of novels of various types...
There are some pretending to face!
There are Thirty Years of Hedong and Thirty Years of Hexi's Blood Roar genre.
There is the rebirth of the strong, crushing the type all the way...
There is a way to travel through the past to pretend to be forced...
Readers were instantly blinded by the sudden appearance of various routines, as if seeing huge spiritual wealth suddenly appearing!
Then……
Awesome!
And they suddenly realized that the book "The War of the Green Grassland" almost covered all the routines that had sprung up after the spring rain.
Then……
The book "The Battle of Qingqing Grassland" is crazy!
……………………………
"Boss Lu..."
"What's wrong?"
""The Battle of Qingqing Grassland" exploded abroad!"
"what?"
"I heard a news that there is a guy who is addicted abroad. After reading our book "The War of the Green Grassland", he has not taken drugs for a week..."
"What the hell?"
Unintentionally inserting willows and willows into shades.
Lu Yuan scratched his head.
What the hell?
Can you still come this way?
