Chapter 856: Heaven Slays the Dragon (V)
Liang Shilu's arguments are obviously more convincing than Zhang Kexi's, and his citations and refutations of the original text are also more thorough. Therefore, Liang Shilu's book reviews were quickly reprinted by major forums——
"It makes sense. There is no need to be harsh on Zhang Wuji."
"After all, he is just an ordinary person, an ordinary person with high martial arts skills."
"Ask yourself, could we do better if we put you and me in Zhang Wuji's position?"
"Luo University's martial arts can always bring us this kind of thinking. There are already many protagonists with different personalities. Zhang Wuji, an ordinary character with no characteristics, has become the thread that supports the development of the novel and is an undeniable highlight."
There are also many supporters.
In fact, the dispute between Zhang Kexi and Liang Shilu is ultimately due to the phenomenal impact of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword".
In addition to the two of them falling in love and killing each other, other top critics in the industry naturally couldn't help but write thousands of words to express their understanding, leading readers to deeply interpret the plot of Yitian, and Yitian fever swept the Dragon Kingdom online world for a while.
[How strong is Zhang Wuji’s internal strength? ]
[Take stock of the four great goddesses: Xiao Zhao, Yin Li, Zhou Zhiruo and Zhao Min! ]
[Strength ranking of the Green Winged Bat King, Golden Retriever Lion King, Purple Shirt Dragon King, and White-browed Eagle King! ]
All kinds of related inventories are emerging in an endless stream, with a tendency to be confusing. With the daily heat fermentation, the sales of "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" are also rising at a terrifying rate. If you enter a bookstore casually, you will be everywhere. It can be seen from the promotional posters of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" that Heavenly Heat even drove the sales of the other two parts of the Condor Trilogy. The advantages of this unique series of works began to become prominent.
The first week, 50 million!
Second week, 80 million!
In the third week, sales continued to explode until Saturday——
This is the 20th day since the novel was published. Shuimu Culture officially announced on its official website that the sales volume of "The Story of Heaven and Dragon Sword" has exceeded 100 million. This also means the birth of Luoyang's fourth phenomenal work. Suddenly, everyone in the industry is talking about it. Vibrant discussion——
"Invincible, right?"
"Hey, he's already invincible."
"There is no more fluctuation in my heart. The martial arts emperor just proved himself again, that's all."
"After learning that he was going to publish "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", at least a dozen large publishing houses in the industry gave up their martial arts publishing plans. The industry was giving in to him, because anyone who tried to stand in his way would be crushed to pieces."
All we can do is express our usual sighs.
Naturally, the media has not forgotten the previously popular derby between Luoyang and Mihu. Because the two books are in separate arenas, they cannot directly compare sales. What they compare is single-month results.
"The battle between martial arts and romance determines the winner!"
"Breaking out, the sales of "Eternal Dragon Sword" beat "Blue Flower Pond"!"
"The final chapter of the Condor Trilogy, "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", continues the glory of the series, and there is no longer any suspense in the annual bestseller battle."
At the beginning, "Blue Flower Pond" only exceeded 100 million sales at the end of the month, and "Yitian Sword of the Dragon" only took 20 days to achieve the sales of 100 million. It was clear which one was stronger and which one was weaker. However, when being interviewed by reporters, Mihu was not disappointed because of losing to Luoyang. Feeling the slightest regret: "I feel that any writer has little chance of winning compared with Luoyang's sales volume. I can get a reputation as a loser in a reporter's writing, which in itself is worthy of my pride."
Some fans of Mihu were upset.
They believe that "Eternal Dragon Sword" is not actually of high quality.
Half of its success relies on the prestige of the Condor Trilogy series. If "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" had not inherited the popularity of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to a certain extent, it would certainly not have been able to continue to maintain phenomenal sales.
This statement really occupies one market.
Because it is an indisputable fact that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not as influential as the original "Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Luoyang just smiled faintly at this and did not express his own opinion. You must know that when Jin Yong finished writing "The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon", some people still said that one of the Condor Trilogy is not as good as the other. However, in fact, no matter whether these three parts are The influence of any article is unprecedented, but some people deliberately ignore this point.
December 2nd.
Luoyang accepted an exclusive interview with People's Daily.
After the completion of the first two parts of the Condor Trilogy, both received exclusive interviews from the People's Daily. Now that the third part is gaining traction, the People's Daily followed its usual practice of sending an old friend from Luoyang to conduct this exclusive interview.
The old friend is naturally Chen Suifeng.
As soon as they met, Chen Suifeng smiled and said, "Teacher Luo, I miss you so much."
This line, which was very Feng Gong's, made Luoyang laugh for a while: "Editor-in-chief Chen, you are fine."
Chen Suifeng nodded: "Haha, Mr. Luo, you have a classic martial arts masterpiece every year. I feel comfortable reading it, so I am naturally fine. After reading "Eternal Dragon Sword" last week, I even took some reading notes."
"Reading notes?"
"Well, to be precise, there was a plot in "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" that touched me. Luo Da might as well guess from the author's perspective which plot touched me deeply."
Luoyang probed: "Zhang Wuji's emotional entanglement with the four women?"
Chen Suifeng kept smiling, but his attitude was obvious. It seemed that Luoyang had not guessed correctly.
Luoyang asked again: "Guo Xiang's apprentice Fengling Master, or Zhang Sanfeng has always been obsessed with Guo Xiang's hundreds of years?"
Chen Suifeng shook his head and stopped playing dumb. He recited in a long and emotional voice: "Burn my body, the holy fire is blazing. What is the joy of life? What is the pain of death? To do good and eliminate evil is the only light. Joy, sorrow and sadness, all return to dust. Have pity on me, the world, there are so many worries! Have pity on me, the world. There are so many worries!"
Luoyang thought: "This is the scripture that the Mingjiao recited when he died."
"Yes, this paragraph is the most shocking part of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber". In terms of love between men and women, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Return of the Condor Heroes" have already written enough, especially "The Return of the Condor Heroes", which left the conclusion that seeing Yang Guo once ruined his life. So in my opinion, the theme of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" is not the emotional entanglement between Zhang Wuji and the four women, but the worries of the people's livelihood and the darkness of the world."
"Editor-in-Chief Chen can always find what others can't find."
Luoyang praised, which was regarded as supporting Chen Suifeng's point of view.
Chen Suifeng's tone was filled with endless emotion: "When the six major sects besieged Guangmingding, they sang this song, ready to die; when the Butterfly Valley rebellion broke out, they sang this song with great passion and courage. In fact, at my age, the love between men and women can no longer deceive my tears. At most, it makes me sad, but the heroes' resolute farewell and the possibility of never meeting each other can still make people cry."
...
Luoyang has done similar interviews twice.
But every time I talk about the Condor Heroes trilogy with Chen Suifeng, I will have new insights. This is a person who reads books seriously and has his own opinions. He is extraordinary and very unique.
The interview was basically over after chatting for nearly two hours.
Just when Luoyang stood up and prepared to leave, Chen Suifeng suddenly took out "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" that he had flipped through several times and asked for an autograph.
Luoyang had no objection and signed his name neatly. After receiving the book, Chen Suifeng smiled and said, "Some people outside said that The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber is your work on the decline. What do you think? Well, don't worry, this part will not be included in the interview. It is a conversation between you and me as friends."
Luoyang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "The next book will be my answer."
Chen Suifeng was also stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something and said, "If you put it that way, it seems that the next book will be great. I am looking forward to it even more."
