"Dad, what's this character?" Pengpeng lay on Zhang Zhong's desk and pointed at the big character he just wrote.
Zhang Zhong said, "This is a beautiful word for beauty."
"This word is really beautiful." Pengpeng said.
Zhang Zhong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you think this word is beautiful?"
Pengpeng shook his head, "I can't explain it, I just feel good."
Zhang Zhong smiled, Pengpeng didn't know much about Chinese characters yet, so reading Chinese characters should be based entirely on the strokes, but he couldn't tell what was so good about the strokes of the word "show".
What he is currently writing is Du Fu's "Wang Yue". He has just finished writing the Good Fortune Bell Shenxiu and was about to write about Yin Yang and Dusk. Before Wang Yue's mood could rise, he was interrupted by his daughter.
Writing this poem is like climbing a mountain. When you run out of breath halfway through the climb, you can no longer climb up. Even if you bite the bullet and write until you can see all the mountains and small mountains, the heroism in your chest has long since disappeared.
He simply changed a piece of paper and began to write Tao Yuanming's Return to the Garden and Residence.
Although he has not published a book recently, he has not been idle. He is busy with the affairs of the United College and studying literature.
Pengpeng has also been very busy recently. Since returning from Magic City last time, Xu Yuhan has stepped up her basic training for Pengpeng.
Today Xu Yuhan went to Meng Mu's small house, and both father and daughter had some free time, so Peng Peng ran to the study to watch her father write.
"Dad, are there any characters that have few strokes and can be written quickly?" Pengpeng suddenly asked.
"If you can write it quickly..." Zhang Zhong smiled, "There is a way."
"Then dad, please write one for me."
"It doesn't look good if you write just one character like this. You have to write a lot of them to make it look good."
"Then dad, please write a few more for me."
Zhang Zhong didn't know why his daughter suddenly wanted to read this, but he still found a piece of white paper and started writing.
As soon as the pen came down, a line of words came out not long after.
Pengpeng looked confused, "Is this also a word?"
Although Pengpeng doesn't know much about Chinese characters yet, she feels that the characters written by her father are completely different from ordinary characters.
Isn't this what she would use a paintbrush to scribble on paper when she was bored?
"Of course this is a word. Although you don't know it yet, you will know it when you grow up."
What Zhang Chong wrote was actually "Four Notes on Ancient Poems" in cursive script.
Pengpeng can't feel anything if he doesn't know the characters. If you find a primary school student who knows a lot of characters, this calligraphy will probably subvert his three views. After all, many people with good calligraphy may not be able to recognize what this calligraphy means.
What.
If the wild grass is not grassy enough, is it still called wild grass?
Moreover, this post directly breaks the restrained cursive style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The cursive script closely connects the strokes of the upper and lower characters on the original basis. The so-called continuous surround, sometimes the two characters look like one character, and sometimes they look like one character.
It sounds like two words.
In terms of organizational arrangements, there is also a huge gap between density and density.
To put it simply, this cursive writing does not follow the rules at all.
While Zhang Zhong was talking to his daughter, he did not stop writing, and the pen in his hand continued to slide on the paper.
It didn't take long before a long cursive script was written.
Writing "Four Notes on Ancient Poems" is better and faster at this point.
After he finished writing, Zhang Zhong found a seal, pressed it, and then placed the words on the air outlet to dry.
When chatting with Yang Fan two days ago, the old man asked him for a calligraphy, and Zhang Zhong naturally did not refuse.
However, he was troubled about what to write. Unexpectedly, his daughter solved his problem by asking him casually. He was very satisfied with the "Four Notes on Ancient Poems" he had just handwritten.
When the words were dry, he rolled them up and put them in a painting bucket. Then he touched his daughter's head and said, "Have you completed your task today? Teacher Xu said to come and check in the evening."
"Oops, I almost forgot!" Pengpeng seemed to have remembered something, and immediately jumped off the table and ran out.
Zhang Zhong looked at Peng Peng's back with a smile, took out his mobile phone and sent Chen Qing a WeChat message, telling him that the new book was ready for distribution.
It is about to be published, but if it is not published, readers will go crazy.
…
Zhang published the book again, but this time it was neither published directly nor serialized in a magazine, but an electronic version on the Zero Zero One website.
Although the readers were very surprised, it had been two months since the book had been published. They didn't care whether it was physical or something else, and they rushed to the Zero Zero One website.
The Zero Zero One website is the website of Zero Zero One Company, which contains books published by previous companies.
However, the books published by Zhang Zhong in 001 are all directly physical, so the online traffic has not been very high.
The reason why Zhang Zhong held back on publishing the book for two months this time, and went online first as soon as he published the book, was because he wanted to increase the traffic of the Zero Zero One website.
This website is now a joint venture between Zhang Zhong and Lin Lin, and Zhang Zhong holds more shares. In fact, it is not clear whether it is the website of Lin Lin's company or the website of "Zero Zero One" magazine.
This wave of hunger marketing was very successful. Readers who had been waiting for two months dived into the website when they saw the news of the new book being launched.
On the Zero Zero One website, a large eye-catching poster is naturally arranged for the new book.
"Zhang Chongshu"
There is not even a book title on the poster, only the four characters "Zhang Zhongshu", but this is completely enough. Readers who enter the website will click on it without hesitation when they see these four characters.
And when they clicked on it, they discovered that the title of the new book was "A Murder Case Publicized in Advance."
Oh, it is indeed a detective novel.
There were rumors on the Internet that the new book would be a detective novel. Everyone was skeptical, but they didn't expect that the rumors were sometimes credible, and it turned out to be a detective novel.
The detective novelists were very happy, but soon they stopped laughing because this novel was not a conventional detective novel at all.
In this novel, the plot may be exciting, but it has nothing to do with detective novels. At best, it is just a mystery novel.
In fact, most fans of mystery novels prefer to read detective novels, because detective novels will create a hero for readers to explore and even admire.
But in this novel, there are some deeper truths contained in the story that progresses layer by layer.
After reading the novel, many readers' first reaction is not that the story is exciting, but that they feel depressed.
Why depression?
Because they couldn't accept the protagonist's death at all, it was too coincidental, too dramatic, and too tragic.
How ridiculous!
If they just feel absurd, they may just laugh it off, but when they savor it carefully, these coincidences are very reasonable, giving people a sense of fate.
