Readers who read Gu Yongsheng’s martial arts have long been clearly divided into two groups, like “Seven Swords”, “The Legend of the White-Haired Witch”, like “Xiao Shiyilang”, and “The Legend of Chu Liuxiang”, and of course some readers with a wide range of flavors can accept both.

This situation is completely expected by Guyong, because the world is roughly the case. Generally speaking, if a reader likes Chu Liuxiang, the invincible and elegant protagonist, and likes the short and powerful style of the Gulong style, then he may not be willing to accept the Guliang style of the pavement and narrative.

"No one knows how he fired the knife. Everyone who saw him fired the knife was dead."

"My name is Ye Kai, Ye Zi's Ye, happy to bloom."

"If a person's heart is dead and his love is destroyed, who else can hurt him in this world?"

Such words seem concise and clear, seem unfathomable. For many readers, these words have inexplicable magic that makes them unable to stop.

As for the very specific narratives of the time, place and characters such as "June of the 18th year of Qianlong" and "September of the cold autumn, the grass in the north is declining, and there is a group of people." This is a favorite of other people.

This is a controversy that will never be reconciled, and it is also a fate that literary and artistic works must face.

Therefore, martial arts readers in this world are also very clear about Gu Yongsheng. As long as you decide to write martial arts, you cannot be biased. You can write "Seven Swords" with ancient Chinese meaning, but at the same time, you have to give other readers the invincible and refreshing martial arts of heroes of "Xiao Shiyilang", otherwise it will be biased and unfair.

If such a thing happens, you can't blame others. When he was writing live, he wrote "Yu Bow of Clouds and Seas" and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang". Once inertial thinking is formed, it will basically be difficult to eliminate.

Most readers often have this kind of experience. After reading a book that they particularly like, they feel depressed and unable to extricate themselves, and they will go around looking for novels of the same type. This is why online searches ask questions such as "Is there any book like "XXX"?", "Is there a book similar to "XXXX"" and so on.

Therefore, readers who have just walked out of the abusive love between Jin Shiyi and Li Shengnan, and immediately urged Gu Yongsheng to write another similar novel, but the ending would be a good reunion. After all, this kind of novel started with "Seven Swords" and has always been a tragedy and tragedy after "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch". Many resentful readers have continued to write in the forum, and insisted on writing Zhuo Yihang and Lian Nishang as "from now on, they lived in seclusion in Tianshan and lived a happy life", and "Jin Shiyi and Li Shengnan have gone to the world."

Against this background, Gu Yongsheng announced that he would serialize "The Book of Swords" on his microblog. Readers can immediately guess what the way this is just by reading the title of the book. In joy, they can't help but feel worried. Will it be a sad ending again?

Many readers even say that if this movie ends with a tragedy, they will refuse to watch Gu Yongsheng's martial arts in the future, or will not watch this kind of martial arts in the future.

Of course, this obviously angry speech is not the first time. It is not that everyone always forgets to hurt after healing his scars, but that they still have expectations for Gu Yongsheng's moral integrity.

In any case, Gu Yongsheng's decision was clearly intended to be followed by "Sea of ​​Clouds". According to the principle that a bowl of water should be kept flat, as soon as the Chu Liuxiang series was completed, some readers were asking: "Is it not that Gu Da will double this time?"

Gu Yongsheng had long expected this ending, so when he decided to promote "Book and Sword", he also finalized "Legend of Lu Xiaofeng".

This is also impossible. I was a bit forced to write "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang". In that situation, Xiang Shuai must appear. In that situation, in which almost all the world is enemies, only the stunning and coquettish Chu Xiang Shuai could break the situation.

Facts prove that Gu Yongsheng's choice was correct, and facts also proved that after making this choice, this type of choice was greatly restricted. After all, the Chu Liuxiang series was a work at Mr. Gu Long's peak stage and was also the most famous novel. There are only a few that can be compared with it, such as "The Relentless Swordsman" and "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng". Judging from the character setting, the latter is undoubtedly more suitable. Some comments in that world believe that Lu Xiaofeng can be as famous as Chu Liuxiang.

Mr. Gu Long also said in the preface to "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", "Lu Xiaofeng is a person. He is a person that you will definitely never forget."

Therefore, the "Gu Yongsheng Column" of "Jianglu" serialized "The Book of Swords and Swords" and "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", and the reason why the first print of 1.8 million magazines was sold out so quickly is related to the advertisement "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" that "Other works have been replaced by "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang".

"At least he has a clear grasp of the reader's mentality. The reason why Xue Muliang achieved such a great success was because he positioned the readership group more accurately."

Although he was edited by Gu Yongsheng, his sales of 1.8 million copies in half a day were still slightly outrageous, so when the news spread, it was inevitable that he would have to discuss it for a few words, whether it was peers or other people.

"There is still a difference. Although Xue Muliang's success relies on his own fame and consciously embarked on a fan economy, Xue Muliang has the Yellow River Literature and Art as his backer. Moreover, Dingshi Culture has always been very active in the road to digging newcomers. Shen You, Adam, Luo An, and Beihetang have already had their own fixed fan base. Can Gu Yongsheng do this?

His best-selling magazines can only rely on serialization of his works or the appointment of other well-known authors, but this is obviously not a magazine's long-term plan. His creation will eventually last for a day. What will he rely on to support the magazine at that time?"

Most industry insiders agree with this statement. Although they do not come forward to discuss it, they do watch "Jinglu" with this mentality.

"It is not easy to train new people", this is an ironclad rule in the industry.

In addition, can Gu Yongsheng really write a work that can follow "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang"?

Even those commentators who are full-time Heigu Yusheng have to admit that "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" is the most influential martial arts in recent years.

...

A mid-range office building in Jianghai City.

A young man in a brown sweater, holding a bottle of champagne, stood in front of the elevator with a smile. A beautiful female employee holding a stack of documents was constantly looking at him. After the two entered the elevator, the young female employee finally asked, "May I ask, are you Gu Yongsheng?"

"Yeah, I'm..."

"Hello, hello. I didn't expect to meet you here. My husband likes your book very much."

"Liu Jingting." Liu Jingting added, the complete words were "I am Liu Jingting."

"Um?"

"My name is Liu Jingting, and many people call me Gu Yongsheng. What is he doing?"

"Oh sorry, I recognized the wrong person."

Liu Jingting got out of the elevator on the seventh floor, and the young woman was still muttering, "It seems."

Liu Jingting didn't mean to lie to her. It's just that if others knew that the office of "Jinglu" was here, there would always be some trouble.

After leaving the elevator, I turned left and walked for more than ten steps to the right. The second one was Yingri Culture. Liu Jingting pushed the door open and saw his colleagues sleeping on the tatami mat. When he saw Liu Jingting coming in, he waved his hands weakly.

"The boss is back."

"Thank you for your hard work in the ancient god."

"Old Liu is here."

Liu Jingting replied with a smile: "You are really working hard. This is celebrating champagne. Everyone should rest and celebrate with champagne. Please invite everyone to have hot pot tonight!"

"That's great!"

"The boss is mighty!"

Liu Jingting put the champagne on the table and sat down casually. He said, "The "Jianglu" started well, thanks to everyone's worries."

Liangsi continued: "The magazine has achieved such a good start, mainly because of the popularity of your two serials, and the others are everyone's curiosity."

Liang Si sat up while talking, looking at Liu Jingting and said seriously, Su Jin, George and Xu Sen also sat up. Chang Youdao still had a pillow and gave Liu Jingting a thumbs up. He said, "Awesome!"

"I have never seen such popularity before," Su Jin looked in disbelief, "It's so terrible, it feels like a dream. Hey, have you ever seen the speed of selling magazines like this?" Su Jin asked George.

"It's unheard of that, Xue Muliang's "Ding Novel" is not of this scale."

Liangsi's face was hesitant. It seemed that there was something to say. Liu Jingting accurately captured this detail and asked: "Editor Liang..."

Liangsi understood and said, "At present, the magazine is in good momentum, but from a long-term perspective, what we have to do is far from enough. Moreover, the most troublesome thing now is that you have to open the ancient god, oh, plus the one on the Internet, it is open the three, this..."

"Well, I understand that the idea of ​​"Jinglu" is not a personal magazine. I'm paying attention to it. As for my serialization, I can withstand it for the time being."

"For the time being," Liangsi showed a hidden worry, "The main reason is that you have cultivated two groups of readers, and they are readers with completely different tastes. On the one hand, this is a good thing, but on the other hand, this will limit us in turn. That is, what should we do after these two serials are completed? Continue to open doubles?"

Liu Jingting said: "From the future, try to write the martial arts that everyone likes."

Liu Jingting said such arrogant words so calmly, the key is that no one in the house disagreed with them.

"No matter how much you have, celebrate the good luck of opening the door and open the champagne!"

...

Just as industry insiders were thinking about "Jinglu", online readers and netizens' discussions on the content of the magazine had already swept across major forums again.

There are three key points in this discussion:

1. As the story deepens, more and more characters appear, the characteristics of "the beginning is dull and the subsequent excitement is getting more and more exciting" are revealed again, and everyone's analysis and discussion on the plot also became lively.

2. Newcomer's tower in the air. Originally, this newcomer author could not attract everyone's attention immediately, but as soon as the magazine was sold for the first round, Liu Jingting recommended "Qingyu Pharmacist" on his microblog: "Although Lin Tiange is a newcomer, his writing style and layout are quite as demeanor as an old author. This book "Qingyu Pharmacist" can be seen through the leopard, and is worth looking forward to, and is recommended to everyone."

What a good person Gu Yongsheng is? He will never play the role of the king of melons for selling magazines. How bad is the martial arts that can attract his attention?

For a time, the towers in the sky also became a hot topic in martial arts forums, and the author himself has been in a state of excitement since he saw Gu Yongsheng's microblog or received a notice of using the manuscript from "Jianglu".

3. The most intense, most lively, with the most participants and the most frequent topic, of course, is "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng". With this name alone, you can find no less than a hundred complaints. In fact, the novel itself also complained through Huamanlou: "Don't think he is a woman. Although his name is Xiaofeng, he is a man who is absolutely inferior."

At the same time, there is also the serious white-clothed sword god Ximen Chuxue in the novel!

"What he blew was not the snow, but the blood on the sword."

There is also a blind handsome man who loves life and is almost perfect - Hua Manlou!

"The man on the street is like jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world."

"The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" just puts on a wedge and gives these few cool characters with a very story, which has caused so much discussion. Let's not mention whether it can surpass "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang". At least for now, there is no problem with the successor.
