Everyone at the scene never dreamed that the author "Tian Xia Ba Sing" whom they were thinking about wholeheartedly and jealously turned out to be Shi Zhijian!
Sima Ling, Wo Longsheng and others felt a mouthful of blood almost spurting out of their throats! Even if they were beaten to death, they would not believe it. This mysterious talent turned out to be their former boss!
Jin Yong felt that his brain was deprived of oxygen and was suffocating! There was an indescribable feeling rising from his heart! It felt like a cat scratching, it was very uncomfortable!
Li Xuexuan can no longer taste the taste of coffee, it feels very bitter and astringent!
For her, the most exciting news in the world is this!
Are you kidding me? Shi Zhijian, a young and promising tycoon, if you don't build your business properly, why are you writing novels? Why are you writing "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"? Are you kidding me?!
Wen Zedun stood by with a very embarrassed face. Seeing Li Xuexuan's expression changing from shock to embarrassment to inexplicable anger, he couldn't help but asked with concern: "Miss Li, are you okay?"
Li Xuexuan woke up and took a deep breath: "I'm fine! Are you sure about this news?"
At this point, Li Xuexuan was still doubting that she had heard wrongly.
Everyone else also looked at Wen Zeton with wide eyes to see what he would say.
Wen Zeton licked his lips, feeling a little nervous for the first time under the scorching gazes of everyone.
"That... the news is true! It took me a lot of effort to find out!" Wen Zeton said word for word, "That Shi Zhijian spent three days locking himself in a hotel room, and then created
This "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"! It is said that this book has been completely written, with almost 900,000 words!"
At first, everyone listened calmly, after all, the impact they had just received was big enough.
But as soon as Wen Zeton's words came out——
"What?"
"impossible!"
"A book in three days?"
Sima Ling was shocked!
Wolongsheng is going crazy!
Even the boss Jin Yong is about to lose his glasses!
Li Xuexuan covered her heart, feeling a dull pain for some reason!
These people in the audience are all literati! Literary giants! They represent the top novel writers in Hong Kong and even the entire island, but this group of people are being dominated by one person, no, they are fooled around by Shi Zhijian!
Is it possible that Shi Zhijian can really challenge the world's literary giants?!
An incredible scene emerged in Li Xuexuan's mind. Shi Zhijian faced Jin Yong, Sima Ling and others with feather fans and silk scarves, and scolded Fang Qiu! While talking and laughing, the oars and oars were wiped out in ashes!
What about "The Deer and the Cauldron", "The Sword and the Sea of Eagles", "Flying Swallows Startled the Dragon" and so on! They are all vulnerable to "Ghost Blowing the Lamp"!
Li Xuexuan felt even more heartbroken!
She covered her heart, closed her eyes gently, sighed! Sighed! Angry!
Boss Jin Yong is still nagging: "How is it possible? Three days to write such a shocking masterpiece? Nine hundred thousand words, there must be something wrong somewhere! There must be!" According to Boss Jin Yong's words
The speed of coding is so fast that it is really difficult to understand Shi Zhijian’s speed of writing a masterpiece in three days!
Sima Ling and others looked at each other in confusion. Even Jin Yong, the leading figure in the literary world, was so irritated that he could not speak coherently. What else could they say?
For a moment, everyone felt a strong sense of powerlessness! It was clear that they were outnumbered! It was clear that they were dominant! They had the advantage!
But suddenly the sky fell and the earth fell!
Everything has changed!
Shi Zhijian is one man in charge!
Stop the large group of them at JYG!
How majestic?
How domineering?!
"Let's adjourn the meeting!" Li Xuexuan looked pale and waved weakly!
No one said anything more, everyone stood up from their seats with jealousy and unwillingness on their faces!
Jin Yong was the last one to stand up from his seat. He glanced at Li Xuexuan silently, his lips moved, and then he said: "Miss Li, to be honest, I still can't believe it!"
Li Xuexuan smiled bitterly and looked at Jin Yong: "It's not just you, I don't believe it either!" After speaking, he tapped the article on the newspaper with his slender fingers, ""Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"? I'm interested and want to read it carefully.
Read it and see how magical it is?!"
…
That night——
"Miss Li, it's time to go to bed!"
The maid walked to Li Xuexuan very carefully and warned her.
Li Xuexuan was leaning on the bedside in her nightgown. Under the lamp, she was holding the newspaper "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" serialized in her hand and looking through it carefully.
At the beginning, Lee Seol-hyun's attitude was completely disdainful!
I think people are exaggerating! Everyone knows that Shi Zhijian is a young entrepreneur. How could he suddenly become a great writer?
This transformation is so awkward!
Therefore, Li Xuexuan thinks that these things written by Shi Zhijian are also pretentious!
But after she took one look, she couldn't help but want to take a second look. After taking a second look, she couldn't help but want to take a third and fourth look...
Li Xuexuan hates herself a little!
Why are you always attracted to the stories written by Pou Jie Jian?
She wanted to put down the novel in her hand and go to sleep! But what came to her mind was the figure of Hu Bayi walking through the ancient tomb!
"Shi Zhijian, I hate you!" Li Xuexuan couldn't help but sternly said.
The maid serving her next to her was startled and didn't understand why Miss Li was so crazy.
Then I saw Miss Li picking up the newspaper she had put down before and started reading it again!
"Miss Li, is she... crazy?" The maid was frightened. She heard that some people can see demons when they read books. Could it be that Miss Li was deceived by "Ghost Blowing the Lamp"? Yes, that must be the case! The maid is convinced.
She couldn't stop! She felt that she had to go to Wong Tai Sin Temple tomorrow to ask for a peace charm for the lady, and by the way, go to Temple Street to find the famous "Dragon Po" to beat the villain!
"There are too many monsters and monsters these days!" the maid sighed loudly.
…
"Ghost Blowing the Lamp" continues to be serialized in "Oriental Daily"!
At first, people were attracted by this weird story, and many people bought newspapers to have a look!
Gradually, some people spread the news that the author of this novel, "who is famous for singing all over the world," turned out to be Hong Kong young entrepreneur Shi Zhijian. Suddenly, everyone in Hong Kong became uneasy!
"what the hell?"
"The contrast is too great!"
“Young entrepreneurs turn into great writers?”
Hong Kong citizens were almost shocked by the sudden news!
Especially those who knew Shi Zhijian, their mouths opened wide, as if they had seen a ghost, they could not believe this fact!
Mr. Huo immediately called Mr. Xu to verify: "Is it true? That guy A Jian is the author of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp"?"
Before Third Young Master Xu could answer, the phone rang again, but it was Su Wendi, the ghost’s son-in-law, calling, “Third Young Master, is Ajian the best singer in the world?”
Xu Sanshao took two phones and answered together: "Ba Chang's mother! Ask her if it's true or not!"
Before Xu Sanshao finished speaking, his boss Xu Shijian ran over and said, "Third brother! Seriously, is Ajian the world-famous singer? Please help me, your sister-in-law loves to read his novels.
Let me go through the back door and show her the manuscript at the back! If I can’t handle it, she won’t let me go to bed!”
Xu Sanshao was dumbfounded. He rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, I actually like his novel very much. I also want to read the story behind it. Please help me!"
Xu Shijian pretended to be angry when he heard this: "Who didn't know you guys are besties?! If you don't help, don't go home to eat! Also, your sister-in-law has learned some good cooking skills! Three treasures soup, eight treasures stuffed duck,
And your favorite jade leaf chicken gizzards!"
Xu Sanshao said bitterly: "Kill me, boss! I really can't finish the manuscript of "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp"!"
…
As a cultural export destination, Hong Kong’s cultural export speed is extremely fast!
Often when new works are released here, Baodao and other areas will soon respond and start to popularize this culture.
For example, in the 1960s, Jin Yong became popular with "Legend of the Condor Heroes". This martial arts novel also became popular in Taiwan, Singapore, Southeast Asia and other places.
Even though the Baodao authorities banned the publication of Jin Yong's works in Baodao because of "bending a bow and shooting a giant eagle", it still could not stop the eager eyes of countless book fans, and it was finally published under the name "Heroes of the Desert".
The hurricane "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" soon hit Baodao, and set off a huge wave in Baodao's literary world!
In the streets and alleys of Baodao, the literati began to talk about this "phenomenal" work.
The theme of tomb robbing, weird and suspenseful, made countless people feel refreshed and felt like they had found a new world and discovered a new continent!
In a villa, Dai Fengni was leaning on the sun lounger on the balcony, her legs resting comfortably on the sofa in front of her. She was eating a piece of watermelon happily with her left hand, and with her right hand she was reading the "Oriental Daily" serialized article.
Ghost blows out the lamp".
"Puff puff puff!" She opened her mouth and spat out a few watermelon seeds. She looked at "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" with her beautiful eyes and said, "Is this really written by Shipu Street? It's so beautiful! It's better than the one written by Gu Long! Also, Shipu Street
He once joined a military team in mainland China and became an educated youth? Why didn’t I know? Otherwise, how could he write so realistically?”
Dai Fengni shook her head, confused, and continued reading. Suddenly she let out a "yeah" and was frightened by the story that followed!
"I'm going to die! This Shipu Street has no good intentions. He knows that I like to read novels, so he deliberately writes such horror to scare me!" Dai Fengni patted her heart with lingering fear, but couldn't help but look at it, and said: "Shipu Street
, just scare me, I, Dai Fengni, am really scared! Also, if you have the ability, make "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" as scary as possible. By then, you will scare the little guy in my belly to death, and it will be a corpse.
Two lives!"
As she spoke, Dai Fengni threw away the watermelon and reached out to touch her bulging belly. Her snow-white belly and round belly button were pouted high...
Suddenly, her belly moved, as if a small hand was patting her belly.
Dai Fengni giggled, touched the little hand with her belly, and said: "Little naughty! Are you in a hurry to come out? Now, you know what I say, stay in there well first, if you come out early,
, I’ll spank your little ass! Also, your street-beating dad started writing novels again to scare your mother and me! I really don’t know what he does for food. Good entrepreneurs don’t do it, but follow others’ example.
He's so eloquent, look, what the hell is he writing? I almost scared your mother and me half of my life just now! When you grow up, you can't imitate him, he's always hitting here and there with a hammer! He's not serious!"
Dai Fengni stroked her belly, looked at the newspaper in her hand, and looked at the author's name "Benchu Tianxia Ba Sing", a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Shipujie, wait for me! Wait until I take the little bastard out of your belly
When he is born, carry him back with you! Then let’s see how you, the father-in-law, look on your face.”
…
"Oriental Daily" Company——
"What? The Governor of Hong Kong invites our newspaper colleagues to attend a charity dinner at the Governor's House tonight?"
Ni Jiang and Gu Long were shocked when they heard the news from Lu Yawen.
Lu Yawen had to nod her head and said: "Yes, I am also surprised! I didn't expect to be invited by the Governor of Hong Kong!"
Ni Ji quickly figured it out, "I know, originally we were not qualified to participate in such a big event! Those who could be invited were all Hong Kong gentlemen and celebrities, or the heads of major newspapers and magazines! Do you know why?
Because this charity dinner is a feast for the Governor of Hong Kong to put gold on his face!"
Ni Ji really guessed it right!
It turns out that the "Dai Lingzhi Recreation Fund" recently established by Hong Kong Governor Dai Lingzhi in a private name was officially established. In order to highlight his efforts in charity and facilitate people to help praise his virtues, he planned to hold such a dinner to bring together all the prominent figures in Hong Kong.
Invite over, and then invite the big guys from the Hong Kong media industry, and let’s all gather together and have a great time!
"Oriental Daily" used to be at the bottom in terms of sales and could not be on the market, so it was not qualified to participate in such a large-scale feast.
But things are different now. The "Oriental Daily News" relied on the "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" to kill Hong Kong literary giants, and the newspaper sales skyrocketed!
According to incomplete statistics, the sales volume of "Oriental Daily" yesterday alone exceeded 100,000 copies!
That’s right!
That’s one hundred thousand copies!
A shocking one hundred thousand copies!
It broke the historical record set by Jin Yong of "Ming Pao"! It became the first Chinese newspaper to rely on novels to sell more than 100,000 a day!
It can be said that now, relying on its solid sales volume, "Oriental Daily" has already possessed an extremely powerful "right to speak"!
Not only are countless advertisers flocking here, seeking cooperation with newspapers to publish advertisements, but many celebrity writers also come here, hoping to open columns in "Oriental Daily" and help write articles!
Relying on newspaper sales and astonishing advertising fees, the Oriental Daily has gone from being on the verge of bankruptcy to making huge profits, earning 300,000 yuan in just one week!
It can be said that today's "Oriental Daily" has the ability to compete with Hong Kong's four major newspapers "Sing Tao Daily", "The Tiger", "Ta Kung Pao" and "Ming Pao"!
As a big boss in Hong Kong, Governor Dai Lingzhi is very aware of the power of "public opinion". What's more, the purpose of holding this feast is to rely on public opinion to build momentum for his charity, raise his reputation to a higher level, and pave the way for his future career.
Of course, young talents like Shi Zhijian were among his invitations, and the president, editor-in-chief, and deputy editor-in-chief of Shi Zhijian's Oriental Daily were also among his invitations.
As a result, Lu Yawen, Ni Jian and Gu Long directly "rised all boats" and became "distinguished guests" in the cultural and sports circles invited by the Hong Kong Governor's Office.
"Where is Mr. Shi? Where is he? I want to tell him the good news as soon as possible!" Lu Yawen said.
Ni Jiang and Gu Long looked at me and I looked at you, shaking their heads together and saying, "I don't know! I haven't seen him since his "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" exploded!"
"Yes, it seems that many people are looking for him!"
Only then did Lu Yawen remember that many people had called Shi Zhijian recently, looking for this mysterious author "The World Sings".
Lu Yawen also contacted many times, but no news was received from Shi Zhijian. After becoming famous, Shi Zhijian seemed to have disappeared without a trace or a sound!
"Maybe there is only one person who can find him now!" Lu Yawen said.
"A Jian? I have such a good relationship with A Jian, but we can't find him. How can I find him?" Ni Jiang looked unbelieving.
"Sanshao Xu!"
"Huh?" Ni Jiang and Gu Long looked at each other, and then nodded together, "Yes! You are a good friend! Only the third young master's dog nose can smell where A Jian is!"
