Chapter 608 Burdened by Fame (Part 1)
Of course, at the beginning, only a small number of ardent fans called me the king.
There is still some way to go before Theking is truly crowned king, but it is an indisputable fact that Theking’s popularity has skyrocketed because of this. In just a few days, Theking’s fan forums and discussion groups composed of major book fans have been full of discussions. gush.
These fans enthusiastically discuss everything related to Theking.
Now, after confirming that Theking is a newcomer, everyone has begun to speculate about Theking's gender, age, and appearance. People who like Theking are all mystery lovers, so reasoning about the mysterious Theking is of course a matter of course. Very interesting thing.
For example, a reader whose ID is Qi Wang Wu Shun posted a post on Theking’s fan forum with certainty.
""White Night Journey" is Mr. Theking's first work. The novel's plot control and effortless writing style all illustrate the power of Mr. Theking's writing. It stands to reason that someone who can write such a work should Like Mr. Endouma, he is about fifty years old.”
"In fact, most of the accomplished mystery writers in our island country are around fifty years old, but Teacher Theking is a newcomer after all, and being new means that he is not very old, so there is a compromise between the two parties. I think Teacher Theking will be the best this year." About forty years old."
"There is a poem in the Dragon Kingdom. No one asked about it for ten years, and it became famous all over the world in one fell swoop."
"Perhaps our mysterious teacher Theking is the true portrayal of this poem!"
The island country likes to quote the poems of the Dragon Kingdom. This is also related to the fact that the Dragon Kingdom is the center of the world. Although the development of the Dragon Kingdom in terms of literature and art has not been satisfactory in recent years, when it comes to history, that superpower is still the best in the world, so many countries will learn from the Dragon Kingdom. country's culture.
After this netizen guessed, he received a large number of likes, indicating that everyone recognized this statement.
Of course, there are not without different opinions. Some people said: "Forty is still a bit old. Maybe Teacher Theking is only about thirty years old. You must know that there is no shortage of real geniuses in the world. In the history of the Dragon Kingdom, there was a man named Cao Zhi." This guy has the experience of writing a poem in seven steps at the age of twenty-eight. Teacher Theking may be a top genius like Cao Zhi. He can cause a sensation all over Asia and become a world-class best-selling author as soon as he writes a mystery novel!"
According to the author's rating standards, Theking, who has become a best-selling author in Asia, is already a world-class author.
In addition, "White Night Walk" and "The Devotion of Suspect Relatively few.
This will not affect the status of "White Night Walk" and "The Devotion of Suspect X", because it is very difficult to swallow both East and West.
At present, few people can do this. After all, the aesthetics of the East and the West are very different. Therefore, there are works that are popular in the East and are sold out in the West, but they are definitely not very numerous. That’s it.
—————————————
The King here is red to purple, but Endōma on the other side is not happy.
In relationships, one always sees new people laughing but never hears old people cry. The same is true in the literary world. When Theking, a phenomenal mystery writer, appeared, the influence of Endōma was unknowingly and faintly felt. A feeling of being weakened.
After all, apart from those popular works ten years ago, Endōma has not written a phenomenal work for many years.
Although Endōma is still the number one person in the RB mystery literary world over the years, his works over the years have already felt like they are going downhill. After all, it is difficult to surpass a person at his peak, especially this kind of self-transcendence. .
For example, "Park" with Dongfang Yuwendou.
It's a typical Endōma work, very good, and the plot twists and so on are also well created.
But there is a lack of surprises. As the first RB mystery writer, if the level can only reach a good standard, it will definitely not satisfy all readers. After all, readers don’t care whether you have run out of inspiration, what readers need is excitement!
Once your work cannot return to the level it was at its peak, some casual fans will gradually leave.
On this point, Endouma feels very deeply. Why do you want to fight Dongfang Yubun to a certain extent to have the reputation of "playing on behalf of RB" and finally defeating Dragon Kingdom's reasoning?
In other words, Endouma wants to hype up. He feels that his reputation is declining year by year. This decline will make him panic, especially as a strong person who has been the number one RB reasoning person for many years. , how can you be willing to tolerate yourself deteriorating step by step?
So he wanted to win a great victory in the literary battle, and then let the domestic media help him report his great achievements.
In this way, the decline of his fame and influence will be temporarily stopped, but unexpectedly, the works written by Fang Wen Douzhong are also very good, and they are on a tie with himself, which makes Yuan Yuan There is a feeling among Fujima that he has stolen the chicken but failed to lose the rice...
I am a world-class mystery writer, but I ended up in a tie with you, a mystery writer who can only be sold in Dragon Country?
This made me, a world-class mystery writer, lose face, so Endo Ma immediately cheered up and prepared to write another work to continue this literary battle with the other party.
Unfortunately, just when he had the idea of a second round of literary battle, Endo Ma was informed by his agent that a very powerful mystery writer appeared in RB, whose pen name was actually Theking, and he also claimed that he would become the king of RB mystery...
This is the rhythm of a fire in the backyard!
For Endo Ma, RB is his backyard.
Now someone in his backyard wants to occupy the magpie's nest, which is definitely not okay, so Endo Ma temporarily gave up the idea of continuing the literary battle and turned his attention to Theking.
This is of course not to say that anyone who provokes me will respond. If Theking is just a mystery writer who likes to brag, then Endo Ma will not pay attention at all, but the problem is that this Theking is not bragging, but really has strong strength!
His novel, "White Night Walk", has achieved extremely high sales.
In short, his unparalleled momentum really seems like a new generation of talent...
This made Endo Ma feel a sense of crisis, and this sense of crisis forced him to find a way to prove that he is stronger than the so-called Theking. He wanted everyone to understand that the old ones are still the best, and his level still represents the highest level of RB!
Just when Endo Ma was gearing up, Theking's second mystery novel began a massive promotion.
