Chapter 118 Comments
Just by reading this, I was deeply attracted and couldn't stop. It took me more than two months and no spare time to read all five novels.
She instantly became Zhao Hong's little fan girl and was looking forward to his new book.
She arrived in front of the largest bookstore in Xiangjiang at six o'clock, but when she came, she saw a long line of people lined up in front of the bookstore. After her interview, it turned out that these people were all fans of Zhao Hong's books.
She saw people of all ages.
"This little brother, what are you doing in line?".
"Buy a book, a red leaf book!".
"Sir, what are you doing in line here?"
"I'm also here to buy books about Hongye."
"Is this beautiful woman also here to buy a book about red leaves?".
"Yes, not only do I want to buy his books, but I also want to give him a monkey!".
…
After the interview, she really felt Zhao Hong's terrifying popularity. These people usually didn't show how much they liked Hong Ye, but as soon as the novel was published, it was time to show their power.
Wu Xin felt proud and proud that the person they liked was the boss of her company. Although she had never met him once, it did not prevent her from feeling proud.
Just like this, the whole morning passed like this, and she saw that the number of people queuing up did not decrease, and the new Hongye books in the bookstore were sold out of stock.
She collected the materials she had collected all morning and returned to the company. The reason she returned was to eat staff meals. Nowadays, many employees are no longer willing to cook for themselves and prefer to eat in the company. The main reason is that the company food is quite good. It can be said that it is the only one in Hong Kong.
This incident was even published in the newspapers, and people in Xiangjiang praised DreamWorks for its benevolence and righteousness and for being a conscientious enterprise. DreamWorks' reputation was established through these small things.
There are many reporters like her today, and they are all reporters sent by other newspapers.
Zhao Hong's novel has received a lot of attention since it was published. Many newspapers have followed up and reported on it. The sales volume of the novel is also very gratifying. In the past five days, 400,000 copies of the novel were sold in Xiangjiang alone. It is quite scary, and it is sold externally.
There are more.
DreamWorks' current distribution capabilities are quite astonishing. As soon as the novel was published, it was immediately distributed to the entire Southeast Asian market. In just five days, 1,500,000 copies of the novel were sold, and this was without a translated version.
First of all, the sales in Wanwan are very gratifying. The sales volume is similar to that in Xiangjiang. In other places where Chinese people live together, the books sell well.
In Ming Pao, Mr. Jin commented that this is a book that "struggles with authority." He said: "The Legend of Wukong is a counter-interpretation of Journey to the West, and it is another example of traditional culture in the new era.
A form of expression.”
"In the Buddhist scripture-seeking story of "Journey to the West", many of the hardships encountered by Tang Monk and his disciples were caused by the negligence or poor supervision of gods and Buddhas."
"The gods in "The Legend of Wukong" are the objects of denial by the author. They are portrayed as wretched, selfish, greedy for life and afraid of death, the Jade Emperor is cowardly and incompetent, the Queen Mother is overbearing, the Tathagata is self-centered, and the gods are self-protective.
Her face is so exposed that it is difficult for people to have respect for these gods. The Queen Mother is described in the book as a neurotic woman suffering from hysteria. Her power is supreme. All the rules and regulations of heaven are her wishes, not just those of you who are above.
Gods, even the Jade Emperor, who is completely dominant in classical works, dare not go against any of her wishes in public here."
"This essentially interprets "Journey to the West". The original interpretation of "Journey to the West" is like the ancient treacherous ministers who killed loyal ministers. They attributed all the blame to those treacherous ministers. Is this really the case?"
"In fact, the most fundamental reason is the emperor's will. Therefore, "The Legend of Wukong" is definitely an in-depth interpretation of "Journey to the West" developed by people's wisdom and emancipating their minds. Hongye is really amazing!".
"Oriental Daily" commented that "This is a love Bible" and the content is as follows: "This novel describes a love that travels through time and space."
"Little Bailong's love for Tang Monk, Zixia's love for Wukong, Zhu Bajie's love story with Ah Yue, etc. are all written unforgettable. Love has become the only sacred thing, and it has replaced the sacred status of going to the West to learn scriptures. This kind of sacredness
Love is not only a reasonable imagination and re-creation of "Journey to the West", but also an inevitable reality of the author's novel concept. Love illuminates "The Legend of Wukong" and adds a moving charm to this novel."
"The love in the novel is touching, and Hongye, as always, brings a tragedy to everyone.".
"Sing Tao Daily" commented that "this is a book about human growth" and the content is as follows: "Perhaps everyone thinks that this world exists for him alone when he is born. When he finds out that he is wrong, he
Then he started to grow up.”
"To borrow a sentence from the novel: "I have been in this world, I have loved, I have fought, and I have no regrets."
"The novel is full of passion, which is the passion of each of our young people."
…
Many newspapers expressed their opinions, and even many literati came to join in the fun. Excellent comments were published one after another. Of course, there were also some critical remarks, but they were soon drowned in the praise, without even a splash.
rise.
The publication of this novel made Zhao Hong's position in the Hong Kong literary world unshakable. He wrote six novels in a row, and all of them were big sellers. He must have depth and depth, and sales must be high. His novels have won countless awards.
.
Now that Mr. Jin has appeared in Xiangjiang, I just want to ask who else is there?
Zhao Hong was also surprised that this novel was well received. He thought that it might have been criticized, or it would be a failure, because this was the same situation when "Journey to the West" first came out.
He wanted to wait a few years for the novel to settle down, but he didn't expect it to become popular all of a sudden.
In fact, it also benefited from the article he published in Ming Pao, which interpreted "Journey to the West" backwards. After a period of heated discussion, readers have changed their minds, so the novel has been widely praised since its release.
Readers don't feel it is obscure and difficult to understand. Of course, Zhao Hong's writing style also deserves some credit. The article is clear and meaningful, the words are gorgeous and fascinating, and it is simply impossible to stop.
Zhao Hong doesn't care about the external disturbances. He is personally supervising the preparations of the crew. Now everything is ready, and it will be time to start filming in two or three days.
