Chapter 260 Ming Shi Fever
The next day, Zhang Duo first called Jin Yuzhi to apologize, and then went to Jin Huaizhong's house to "sit and talk about it" and said that he came back very late. Qin Lan lived at Zhang Duo's house for a week before leaving.
On the side of Wanbang Film and Television, "Journey to the West" is still being released. Other series of the company are also constantly preparing, starting, shooting, filming, filming, and filming. Although Wanbang Film and Television has developed and grown by TV series adapted from Zhang Duo's novels, it cannot only rely on Zhang Duo's novels. After all, the number is too small.
Zhang Duo has stopped the work of Wanbang Film and Television. Although Song Siwei and Jin Yutang are slightly dissatisfied, they can't say anything. After all, Zhang Duo is still a high school student, although what he has done does not look like a high school student.
It's still during the winter vacation, but most of the senior high school students are starting classes, but Zhang Duo is not in a hurry to go. He is now mainly busy with the coding work of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" every day.
Those Things in the Ming Dynasty have sold more than 10 million copies. As one of the 15 books with the largest circulation since the reform and opening up, it is the best-selling historical book in 30 years. In its previous life, it has been translated into Japanese, Korean, English and other languages. Since Zhang Duo copied it, he would naturally not give up halfway and always finish copying it.
The whole set of books has a total of seven volumes, with more than 960,000 words. On average, a book is less than 140,000 words. In addition, Zhang Duo serialized more than 300,000 words before, but now there are still more than 600,000 words. Zhang Duo typed 50,000 words a day and finally typed out the manuscript of the whole book at the end of February. As for the book number, Jiang Xiancheng went to apply, and now he is waiting for Zhang Duo to hand in the manuscript so that he is ready to print.
After Zhang Duo finished typing the last word, close the document and put it in the USB flash drive. He got up and took his coat, drove downstairs, and drove to the Longyu Building.
This is a newly built building in Songxin District, Bincheng City. It is located in the core of the CBD of Songxin District, with beautiful scenery and high green coverage. Songjiang Morning Post and Wansheng Book Company have moved to this building, but they are not on the same floor.
Zhang Duo drove to Longyu Building and took the elevator to the office floor of Wansheng Book Company on the 16th floor. Along the way, there was an endless stream of nodding and greetings. Zhang Duo just smiled and did not squint, and strode into Jiang Xiancheng's office.
Probably to show that he is the boss of a book company, Jiang Xiancheng's office is full of books. When Zhang Duo came in, Jiang Xiancheng was wearing a pair of glasses and lay on the bookshelf and didn't know what book to look for.
"Uncle Jiang, what are you busy with?" Zhang Duo said with a smile. Naturally, he will not knock on the door when he enters the office, but he will not stand outside the door and wait for the invitation.
Jiang Xiancheng turned around, showed a warm smile, and walked towards Zhang Duo. I found a book about the Ming Dynasty, which is Mr. Huang Renyu's Fifteen Years of Wanli.
Although Zhang Duo's reborn world is very different from his previous life, it is not completely different, and not everyone's life trajectory has been affected. For example, Dr. Huang Renyu, who later went to study in the United States, still wrote "15 Years of Wanli" that changed the way Chinese people read in 1982.
"That's a good book, worth reading!" Zhang Duo sincerely praised, then sat on the sofa, took out the USB flash drive and said, "My "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" has all been cut off!"
Jiang Xiancheng's eyes lit up and reached out to take the USB flash drive. "That's great. If "15 Years of Wanli" affects historians and ordinary historical enthusiasts, your "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is the book that really changes ordinary Chinese people's reading history!"
Zhang Duo smiled and didn't say anything. Jiang Xiancheng continued to say, "Mr. Zhang, you don't know how many people are waiting for this book!"
Different from the doubts of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" in the previous life, its fate is obviously more bumpy in this world, and it has been banned from serial publication for more than a year, and now it is a moment to see the sun again.
Zhang Duo smiled and was a little disdainful, "I'm afraid many people have forgotten that I have written such a book for more than a year!"
"If it was written by someone else, readers may have forgotten it for such a long time. But what you wrote, there are still many readers who will never forget it! If you don't believe it, you can ask Lao Tang. He has always received letters from readers who consulted about those things in the Ming Dynasty. Jiang Xiancheng sat on the sofa and said.
"Oh, that's good! Uncle Jiang, I will give you the manuscript. You can publish the whole set of books as soon as possible!" Zhang Duo stood up and prepared to get up and go home.
"Zhang Shao, it's not easy for you to come here once. Why don't you give everyone a meeting and cheer up!" Jiang Xiancheng proposed.
Zhang Duo thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's do it next time. I still have something to do when I go back."
"Oh, I forgot that you have to go back to review and prepare for the college entrance examination, so I won't waste your time!" Jiang Xiancheng got up to see off the guests.
Zhang Duo actually had other plans, but he saw Jiang Xiancheng's misunderstanding and did not explain. After driving home, Zhang Duo greeted Wang Shuying and returned to his room to start typing. This time, it is "Return to the Ming Dynasty to be a prince".
Huiming can be said to be the first time-travel historical novel that has been successful in both business and word-of-mouth. At the moment when "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" is about to be published, the future "Ming history fever" can be predicted, and at this moment, there will be an excellent online novel that travels to the Ming Dynasty, its prospects will be very bright.
Regarding the history of the Ming Dynasty, it can be said that it is an inevitable phenomenon in the process of Chinese people reading history. It is because people know little about the history of the Ming Dynasty. Their understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty is not only scattered, but also chaotic. However, the Ming Dynasty has existed for 276 years. Such a long dynasty is so close to us, and we have little understanding of it. Naturally, the public will pay attention to the history of the Ming Dynasty. In particular, the whole society tends to have a high evaluation of the Qing Dynasty, which makes people unable to understand why China lagged behind the world and was slaughtered and divided after the heyday of Kang Yongqian.
Then, the visible things left to us by the Ming Dynasty, such as the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, the Temple of Heaven, Zheng He's voyage to the West, how can such brilliant achievements and world cultural heritage appear in a declining dynasty? How can the dynasties depicted as rotten and dark be commensurate with these historical and cultural heritages?
In fact, when "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" was serialized, there were already signs of "Ming Dynasty fever". However, an "anti-vulgar" movement vividly interrupted it. Later, Zhang Duo serialized Emperor Yongzheng, which resulted in a fire in the Qing Palace drama, and relatively few people paid attention to the history of the Ming Dynasty.
Now that the "Ming History Fever" is approaching, Zhang Duo wants to write "Return to the Ming Dynasty to Be the Prince" earlier. Huiming's book tells the story of Zheng Shaopeng, a good man of the ninth generation, who returned to the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. It was a colorful era, with the evil of the eight tigers in the capital, the romantic of the four talents in the south of the Yangtze River, the mind of the great Confucian king Yangming, and the absurd Zhengde emperor Zhu Houzhao. The protagonist who stepped into this world in a muddle-headed state had to deal with these various characters for his own fate.
The dispute between the East Factory, the West Factory, the Inner Factory, the Outer Court, and the Jinyiwei; the story of the removal of corrupt officials on behalf of the sky patrol; the suppression of Japanese pirates, the exorcism of Tatars, the destruction of the capital, and the war against the Frang machine; the opening of the sea ban, immigration to Siberia..., wonderful stories are coming...
Speaking of Huiming, this book was also a divine book. It once swept the Internet and won many year-end awards, occupying the first place in Taiwan's library loan list for five consecutive years. In 2009, he entered the "Ten-Year Inventory of Online Literature" and was selected as the sixth of the top ten popular works.
In terms of the plot setting of the story, it is full of twists and turns, which makes people rest for a long time. In the portrayal of the characters, the depiction of the hero can be said to be more in line with the image of ancient Chinese scholars. He is full of talent but also has a little principle of scholar-style stupidity, which not only does not make people hate, but also often makes people feel that it is a kind of true temperament and true cuteness.
The depiction of the heroine can also be said to be more excellent. The 12 beautiful women in the book are born in all walks of life, and their past experiences are also ups and downs. Therefore, under the setting and guidance of this character, it is more delicate, subtle but suitable for women's personality, psychology and even language and behavior. The depiction of reason reflects a vivid artistic beauty, which makes readers arouse an emotional and aesthetic feeling, and makes the characters vivid and plump.
Zhang Duo typed more than 10,000 words, and then logged on to Wansheng Novel Chinese website to apply for a book. I didn't call Chen Zhisheng, just waiting for the website personnel to slowly review it.
After it was finished, Zhang Duo thought for a moment and dialed Jin Yuzhi's phone. Although he apologized after the incident in the mall, he and Jin Yuzhi had an estrangement, so during this period, he always looked for opportunities to ask Jin Yuzhi out.
At the beginning, Jin Yuzhi ignored him at all, but after a long time, he couldn't stand Zhang Duo's soft and hard bubble, and the relationship between the two gradually eased.
When Jin Yuzhi answered the phone, her voice was very lazy, as if she were talking in her sleep. But now, except for dinner, it is not suitable to sleep in and go to bed early.
Zhang Duo was very surprised, "What are you busy with? Sister?"
"I'm just doing SPA and fell asleep. Do you want to come over?" Jin Yuzhi proposed.
Zhang Duo imagined Jin Yuzhi's figure and hurriedly nodded! You're there, and I'll drive there." But I didn't think that no matter how he nodded on the phone, Jin Yuzhi couldn't see it.
"Oh, then drive to No. 128 Hongjian Road. There is a club, which is opened by you, Sister He Qing. Now you are also a celebrity. Come and support Sister He Qing for you!" Jin Yuzhi said.
Zhang Duo smiled and said, "Compared with Sister Yuzhi, I'm just a personal name!"
