but…
While people were shocked again, their worries did not disappear.
Chu Kuang announced the title of the book in advance for promotion. Could it be that he wanted to use the popularity of "Fairy Tale Town" to add weight to his new fairy tale
The effect is yes.
But it’s still not enough. The influence of David’s “Legend of the Sea” Part 1 cannot be compared with just one song…
For a while, the discussion continued.
Lin Yuan no longer paid attention to what was happening online.
In the following days, he concentrated on writing "Alice in Wonderland".
In this process.
Jin Mu brought Lin Yuan a piece of news, which was also related to Chu Kuang:
"The TV series version of Detective Poirot has been completed and is currently in post-production. It will probably be broadcast once it is finished."
The copyrights of most of Chu Kuang's novels have been sold, but Lin Yuan doesn't interfere with the filming of TV series after the copyrights are sold...
My energy is limited and I cannot take care of both.
Generally, Jinmu would only tell Lin Yuan when these movies or TV series were released.
"Look back."
Lin Yuan spoke without asking any further questions.
The filming of this TV series has nothing to do with him.
However, although he did not interfere with the filming, Lin Yuan certainly hoped that the TV series adapted from his novel would be well made.
If the production company messes up the TV series, Lin Yuan will not continue to cooperate with such a company in the future.
What a waste of the classic work of the earth.
All the film and television production companies in the industry are aware of Chu Kuang’s rule, so when they buy Chu Kuang’s film and television copyrights, they take it very seriously and are serious enough in filming.
"Um."
Jin Mu smiled and said, "Speaking of which, your old rival, the new version of the TV series "Hong Huang" is also going to be released, but the specific date has not been announced yet, and they should be dealing with post-production issues..."
"Then Journey to the West will be released soon."
Lin Yuan has been following the filming of "Journey to the West".
Because we are only filming the first season, there is not a lot of content, so the filming speed is still good.
In fact.
Not long after Lin Yuan and Kaneki finished their conversation, the crew of "Journey to the West" announced that the filming of the first season had officially ended.
Wrap-up day.
Lin Yuan also went to the crew in person and took part in the wrap-up party that night, a rare occasion.
After all, he is the core chief screenwriter of the crew. Even if Lin Yuan is becoming more and more skilled in being a hands-off boss, he still has to try his best to attend some key occasions.
At the wrap party.
Lin Yuan was undoubtedly the focus of the whole audience.
The director, producer and even the main actors took turns toasting Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan doesn't drink alcohol, so he responded by drinking tea instead.
Everyone knew that Lin Yuan was in poor health, but they didn't know that Lin Yuan's health was better than that of ordinary people now, so no one thought it was inappropriate for him to drink tea at the table.
certainly.
No matter how healthy Lin Yuan was, if he didn't want to drink, no one dared to say anything.
During the dinner, Lin Yuan was also silently observing these actors.
The subsequent development of Journey to the West is very important, involving independent solo films, and some of the actors in it may be of use to him in the future.
However, Lin Yuan was still considering the specific plan, so he did not mention it during the meal.
…
The day after the wrap party, Lin Yuan came to the studio to continue writing Alice in Wonderland.
The novel has less than 200,000 words in total.
How long does it take to write a novel of less than 200,000 words
The answer will certainly be different for different writers.
Lin Yuan's answer is:
A few days is enough.
Yes, in just a few days, Lin Yuan had finished writing most of "Alice in Wonderland".
This was because he needed to draw illustrations for the fairy tale at the same time, which delayed his work.
If illustrations had not been needed, he would have written the entire novel by now.
But even so, Lin Yuan's speed was very fast.
After all, the way he writes is different from other writers.
Other writers write books while they are developing the plot.
All Lin Yuan had to do was type out the words in his mind step by step.
As for the painting part...
The master-level painting skills are there, and it doesn't take much effort to just draw a fairy tale illustration.
"We can call it a day tonight."
After taking a look at the progress, Lin Yuan had an idea in his mind.
At this moment, Jinmu suddenly appeared: "Boss, the second part of David's "Legend of the Sea" has been released, and I bought a copy."
"Um?"
Lin Yuan looked at the book in Jinmu's hand and was surprised to find that the illustration on the cover was very beautiful.
Jinmu smiled bitterly and said, "For the second part of "Legend of the Sea", we invited the top illustrators in the industry to draw illustrations. Your advantage in illustrations is not that great anymore."
As he spoke, Jinmu turned a few pages of the lower part of "Legends of the Sea" and showed it to Lin Yuan.
There are a lot of drawings in it, and most of them are very exquisite. Even with a discerning eye like Lin Yuan, he has to admit that the level of the illustrator David found is quite good.
Of course, there is definitely still a gap compared to myself.
But for fairy tales, this level of illustration is already quite high.
Jin Mu said in a deep voice: "I only realized after reading the second part of "Legend of the Sea" that the other party came prepared. I am afraid that even without the instigation of the Yan people, David also planned to fight with you. For these new literati who joined the Merge Continent, your identity as Chu Kuang is a target. Everyone wants to use your halo to get to the top."
Because there aren’t many illustrations in the first part of “Legends of the Sea”.
However, the second part of "Legends of the Sea" contains a large number of beautiful illustrations.
This shows that the second part of David's "Legend of the Sea" was aimed at Chu Kuang.
Because everyone who has studied Chu Kuang knows that all the illustrations for the fairy tales before Chu Kuang were done by Shadow!
Shadow's illustrations have contributed a lot to the sales of Chu Kuang's novels.
So David is smart!
He also put a lot of effort into the illustrations!
He didn't expect the illustrations in his own works to be better than Shadow's, as Shadow's painting skills were difficult to surpass. But by doing this he could at least weaken the advantage brought by Shadow being responsible for the illustrations in Chu Kuang's works.
“Very well prepared.”
Lin Yuan was puzzled: "Why didn't he do a good job of illustrations in the first part?"
Lin Yuan has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
How can the illustrations on the upper part be so casual while the illustrations on the lower part are so elaborate
Jin Mu curled his lips: "Of course he wanted to catch you off guard, just like when he challenged you to a literary duel, he didn't tell you in advance that his new book was the second part of "Legend of the Sea". In terms of importance, David values you far more than Bai Jie."
"It doesn't matter."
Lin Yuan said: "Our illustrations are better, and this novel can be finished tonight. You can arrange the publishing matters in the next few days."
"Do you have any other tricks?"
Kaneki's eyes lit up.
Lin Yuan said calmly: "Anyone who has participated in a variety show knows that the one who takes the first move will lose."
Kaneki: “…”
Let me talk to you about novels.
Are you talking to me about metaphysics
