Chapter 109 Comments
When it was serialized in Ming Pao in his previous life, readers did not know how to react to the current plot, but it was not serious. It should not have been the crisis faced by Zhang Duo.
Because Ming Pao can miraculously survive, first of all, Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novels have attracted a group of fixed readers, and it is not too much to say that Ming Pao is supported by The Return of the Condor Heroes. If there has been such a crisis, whether Ming Pao can exist or not will become unknown, but Mr. Jin Yong has still compromised with readers.
Ni Kuang believes that the structure of the whole book of The Return of the Condor Heroes has one of the biggest drawback, that is, the little dragon girl and Yang Guo separated under the circumstances that cannot but be separated. Huang Rong made a lie that made Yang Guo full of hope and waited for 16 years. These 16 years have been extremely painful for a person who deeply understands what love is. As a result, 16 years later, Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo met again and ended in comedy.
In The Return of the Condor Heroes, Yang Guo was always a tragic character, and so was the little dragon girl, because they could not get along with the society at that time. The reunion of Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl is a great news for readers, and everyone celebrates it, but for the whole novel, it is a failure. After the little dragon girl reappears, where is there any light to speak? It's much better than letting Yang Guo continue the tragedy!
It is unknown what Jin Yong's original creative intention was, but as for the novel, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" is destined to be a tragedy from the beginning. It is unknown whether it is to change it into comedy in order to accommodate the reader's wishes.
As one of the readers, although it is hard to say, when watching The Return of the Condor Heroes, I also hope that the Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo will meet again. Although after covering up the scroll, they have repeatedly believed that tragedy can make The Return of the Condor Heroes more complete. I also believe that Jin Yong also took tragedy as the main theme at the beginning of his creation. Otherwise, why let the little dragon girl lose her life. To an irrelevant Taoist priest? When Jin Yong wrote The Return of the Condor Heroes, the comedy ended, which was absolutely understandable, because at that time, it was the initial period of Ming Pao, and the Return of the Condor Heroes was serialized in Ming Pao. If the little dragon girl suddenly disappeared from then on, Yang Guo would be desolate, depressed and lonely in the world. He was afraid that the readers would never read Ming Pao again when they were angry.
Although current readers may no longer read the Songjiang Morning Post in anger, Zhang Duo can't compromise. He is just a reborn copyer. He doesn't have the ability to modify martial arts masterpieces. If he succumbs to the pressure of the outside world at this moment and apologizes to the readers, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" can't be written, and "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" can't be published.
Unfortunately, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind did not stop, and he did not wait for Zhang Duo's reaction. However, Wang Cheng commented on "Yang Guozhi Guo" in the Northeast Evening News and criticized The Return of the Condor Heroes.
"China's traditional ethics is often interpreted as the center of the family and the standard of filial piety. Reflected in traditional martial arts novels, the character development clues of many works begin with revenge on the family, and filial piety provides a moral basis for killing.
Yang Guo believes that Huang Rong's husband Guo Jing is his "father-killing enemy". For Guo Jing, because Yang Guo is the son of a homage brother, Guo Jing adopted Yang Guo and became his de facto adoptive father. However, in the eyes of Guo Jing and his wife, Yang Guo has already had a "original sin". The name Guo Jing took for Yang Guo obviously has the meaning of father and son - Yang Guo, the word was changed to refer to his father Yang Kang's fault and asked his son Yang to correct it. That is to say, as soon as Yang Guo came to this world, he was deeply branded with the mark of shame.
If Yang Kang's conduct constitutes the "fence" of Yang Guo's original sin, then Yang Guo's love with the little dragon girl is his own "fear". The little dragon girl is several years older than Yang, and she is also his master and elder. The ancients said that he was a teacher for one day and a father for life. In the eyes of the Song Dynasty, the master was equivalent to his parents.
But after being humiliated by Yin Zhiping, the little dragon girl thought that it was Yang Guo's work and wanted to be Yang Guo's wife, which was undoubtedly a job to challenge society and destroy human family.
Although this is just a fictional martial arts story, even if it has happened, it has been nearly a thousand years ago, but this is not a reason why we can tolerate it.
Even in today's society, "teacher- student love" is intolerable in mainstream society, not to mention a "teacher-apprentice love" in the Song Dynasty where science prevailed! Although I don't know the story development behind "The Condor Heroes", I have to say that Meng Nanxing's thoughts are very dangerous. If he wants to vigorously praise the love between Yang Guo and the little dragon girl, it is undoubtedly challenging the bottom line of public order and good customs. This is the intolerable and tens of millions of any disciple of Confucius and Menciology disciples. What readers can't tolerate! If he refuses to pull back from the cliff and get lost, I, Wang Cheng, will definitely fight with him to the end!"
Compared with Zhou Xiaofeng's article, editor-in-chief of Northeast Evening News, Wang Cheng's pen is sharper. The so-called "killing and killing the heart" means to destroy someone's body. It is better to expose and condemn the motives and intentions of such people.
Mr. Guo said that if you can't defeat your opponent in business, the best way is to attack morally. Zhou Xiaofeng only analyzed the reader's reading experience from the plot of the novel, saying that this kind of scene is too abusive for any book fan to stand. However, Wang Cheng's intentions were much more sinister. From a moral point of view, he analyzed and disclosed Meng Nanxing's intention to write these scenes, and came to the conclusion that Meng Nanxing intended to promote a relationship that is contrary to human relationships.
This is a problem that readers can't stand, and call on all those who have read books to come * Meng Nanxing!
Although Wang Cheng is not as popular as Zhang Duo today, there is also a group of "hard-core fans" among martial arts fans. In particular, his "Dragon in the World" has been serialized to Zhu Youcheng's nine-turn lotus power and Maitreya's palm in the Ming Xiao Mausoleum. After leaving the mausoleum, he met Liu Xun, a master found here. The two fought in a misunderstanding and immediately launched a shocking battle.
In the foreshadowing of the previous article, Wang Cheng wrote Liu Xun as a peerless master who seemed to have practiced the Sunflower Book, and the war between Zhu Youxuan and the old eunuch Liu Xun, who had just completed his magical skills, was even more thrilling and excitingly written by Wang Cheng. When many readers saw this, they held their breath and were afraid to breathe stimulated by the intense plot. Wang Cheng won unanimous praise from readers, and his popularity soared, but his reputation as the master of martial arts novels was firmly established.
Now Meng Nanxing and Wang Cheng in the martial arts novel world are like "North Qiaofeng, South Murong" in "Tianlong", and are as famous master-level figures. Now that Wang Cheng has declared war on Meng Nanxing, there is still no room left, which immediately caused an uproar in the industry.
Wang Ji's disciples and grandchildren responded one after another; countless famous Chinese academics jumped out to criticize. Under the influence of public opinion, many novel fans have also joined the army to denounce Meng Nanxing, but the momentum is becoming more and more unfavorable to Zhang Duo.
Jin Yuzhi came to the Songjiang Morning Post worriedly to find Zhang Duo. She didn't understand why Zhang Duo continued the widely acclaimed Legend of the Condor Heroes like this. As a girl, of course, it is intolerable for what happened to the little dragon girl. But she felt that Zhang Duo had her own ideas about how to write, and it was difficult for outsiders to interfere, but she didn't expect it to cause such a big twists and turns.
She read the article written by Wang Cheng and felt that the analysis was in place and unconsciously agreed. But I was thinking, why did Zhang Duo write a novel about "teacher- student love"? Is there any special significance for him to write this book? Or, are you insinuing something? You know, the two used to be a teacher- student relationship, and the age difference is several years!
Jin Yuzhi entered Zhang Duo's office. After sitting down, she did not drink water and said to Zhang Duo, "A Duo, it was originally a hit, but your popularity soared, which is a good time to show your ambition. But why did you write this kind of scene at such a critical moment?
Zhang Duo said helplessly, "The novel is formed in my mind, and the fate of each of them is as doomed. I just wrote the formed story, and the plot has developed here, and I can't help it!"
"But what should we do in this situation?"
Zhang Duo walked to the window sill and said with his hands behind his back, "The world is like chess, and there is no way to make dangerous moves. If it is really unsustainable in the future, I will write the manuscript of the whole novel as soon as possible and publish it by my distribution company. At that time, whether this book is good or bad, the reader will have their own answer!"
Jin Yuzhi looked at Zhang Duo's back and said with sadness, "I'll beg my father to say hello to the culture!" Such one-sided public opinion is too unfavorable to you!"
Zhang Duo said quickly, "Don't. If your father took action, even if I can win at this time, I will lose in the long run. I have confidence in my work, and I hope you can have confidence in me.
Jin Yuzhi choked and said, "But the current situation is getting worse day by day, and the criticism of you is even more overwhelming, like a dark cloud."
Zhang Duo smiled and said, "So what? Don't I still stay here? The sales of Songjiang Morning Post have dropped a lot, and many of my fans have deviated from me, but after all, there will be a time to see the sun.
At this time, Jin Yuzhi found that the little Zhang Duo in her mind had really grown up. If ordinary people encounter this situation, this kind of blow is almost the same as the collapse. Even when Jin Yuzhi thinks of him as an outsider, he also feels scared, but Zhang Duo can still talk and laugh. I really don't know whether he should say that he is extraordinary or heartless!
Jin Yuzhi walked to Zhang Duo, stared at Zhang Duo and said, "A Duo, if you need help, remember to come to me. Even if the whole world doesn't understand you, I will firmly stand by your side!"
Hearing Jin Yuzhi's heartfelt words, Zhang Duo only felt as if there was sunshine shining into his heart and swept away the haze in his heart. He said, "Sister Yuzhi, thank you, and thank God for letting me meet you!"
