Chapter 24 Eight Dragons
At present, Jia Yun held a pencil in her hand and wrote the title of a book on white paper: Tianlong Bazi!
The book he wants to write is "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!
First of all, in the Qing Dynasty, it is relatively easy to make money by writing chapter-like novels, while martial arts novels like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are novel and attractive in this era, and relatively easier to make money.
Secondly, Jia Yun liked "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" very much in his previous life. In his opinion, this martial arts novel is definitely ranked among the top three even if it is not the pinnacle of Master Jin.
Jia Yun has read the original work several times and watched the TV series several times, more than one version. With his current strong memory and writing skills, he is confident that he can write this novel well.
Third, although the Qing Dynasty did not have harsh literary inquisitions like the Qing Dynasty in the previous life, there were some restrictions in this regard.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is relatively clean in this regard, without exposing the darkness of feudal rule, without criticizing the corruption of the imperial examination system, and without resisting the constraints of feudal ethics...
It is a strange martial arts novel. The story background takes place in the Song Dynasty and is mainly based on Dali, Yunnan. Although the novel involves ethnic conflicts between the Song, Liao, Dali, Xixia and Tubo, these will not have any problems in the Qing Dynasty. On the contrary, some places are in line with the ruling thought of the Qing Dynasty.
Even so, Jia Yun is still cautious when writing, and will not write something that is unclean for Qingchao, causing trouble.
The original work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is very long, with more than one million words. Jia Yun is planning to reduce it to one million words, mainly to reduce the text and try to reduce the plot as little as possible.
As for writing style, the original writing style is actually somewhat suitable for the Red Chamber World.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin" were written in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, and "Journey to the West" was written in the Ming Dynasty. The four masterpieces, "Dream of the Red Chamber", did not appear.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is half vernacular, "Water Margin" and "Journey to the West" are mainly vernacular, and "Dream of Red Mansions" is also mainly vernacular. The original writing style of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is very similar to "Water Margin", "Journey to the West" and "Dream of Red Mansions".
However, Jia Yun will still pay attention to her writing style and try to use writing styles that are in line with the current world.
Jia Yun believes that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" should be a best-seller in this world.
Maybe in the future, it may be ranked as one of the four great classics along with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin" and "Journey to the West". It is not impossible that "Dream of the Red Chamber" will no longer appear, and among the four great classics, there can be such a fairy-tale novel as "Journey to the West", so why can't there be a martial arts novel?
Jia Yun just thought about it this way. His main purpose of writing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" this time was not to be famous all over the world and be remembered forever, but to make money, which is very vulgar but very realistic.
If Cao Gong in his previous life knew that Jia Yun would be amused and laughed when she wore a martial arts novel to make money by writing a martial arts novel, right?
You know, the material environment when Cao Gong wrote "Dream of Red Mansions" was very difficult. It can be said that it was full of absurd words and a bitter tears! It is said that the author is crazy, who can understand the taste?
Cao Gong paid too much to write "Dream of Red Mansions", but he had no material gains. However, in such a difficult material environment, he wrote a great masterpiece in Chinese history.
Jia Yun admires Cao Gong very much.
