Entertainment: My knife has made the whole world sad

[The Cement-Sealed Martial Arts Trilogy, the first part of The Legend of the Condor Heroes will be officially released on April 17th! 】

…

When the release date of the old thief's new work was confirmed, the entire Xiazhou...

No.

It should be said that there are countless old book fans in Kyushu who are crazy about it.

From Harry Potter to Sherlock Holmes, Lao Zei's book fan base in Kyushu is larger than Lin Qiu's movie fan base.

Oriental martial arts! I love Eastern martial arts!

Oh my god! That's my type!

Why aren't readers in Xiazhou very optimistic about this genre? Martial arts are so cool. I believe the old thief can produce a very good work!

From the moment Lao Zei's new book type leaked out, the Lao Zei reader group in the entire Kyushu region was in two completely different states.

Jiuzhou readers were excited, but Xiazhou readers themselves became worried.

The reason why Jiuzhou fans are so excited is because the martial arts category itself is very attractive to them. In the previous life, the Oscar-winning movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was also adapted from the martial arts novels of the Republic of China.

To a certain extent, martial arts may be the genre that has the greatest audience in Kyushu among Xiazhou’s local genres.

The reason why Xiazhou's martial arts novels are so accepted is because it has a relatively complete social development and is supported by core culture. This foreign culture is attractive to any different states.

Many movie fans like to watch foreign movies, not because they are advocating for foreigners, but because of the attraction of exotic locales.

On the V site, you can often see many reaction videos between different states and regions. The essence is not to gain recognition.

But to see these Kyushu audiences who don’t know Xiazhou feel attracted when they experience and understand Xiazhou culture.

Awesome and mysterious.

This is the key.

Just like the Xiazhou audience, they also like to watch Superman, vampires and magicians.

Therefore, the readers of Jiuzhou’s Lao Zai are naturally excited when they hear that Lao Zai is going to write about martial arts.

They don't know too many authors in Xiazhou and think that the old thief is the best author in Xiazhou, so the martial arts novels written by the old thief are naturally the most authentic martial arts novels in Xiazhou.

As for why local readers in Xiazhou have some doubts about Lao Zei's martial arts novels, it has been mentioned before that this genre is a very cool genre in Xiazhou today.

Because of the gap between literary masters and the rapid decline in the popularity of martial arts among the people, today's martial arts is at an awkward level, and the most intuitive way to present it is through film and television.

In terms of film and television, martial arts movies that have lost their excellent original works have also lost their strong vitality in the last century.

Coupled with the lag in the number of martial arts film creators, the generation gap between young and old, and the decreasing market share of martial arts films year by year, the investment and creation of martial arts films are far less than before, which directly leads to a general decline in the attention of the audience and the industry.

Any industry that wants to develop requires a snowballing process.

Nowadays, the only martial arts master who can be considered a master in Xiazhou is Yu Xiangyang, Mr. Yu.

Mr. Yu has created more than twenty martial arts novels in his life, nearly half of which have been made into films and television, and the quality is good.

As a literary giant, Mr. Yu has a very arrogant character and has made some arrogant remarks on various occasions.

Everyone originally thought that when Mr. Yu heard that Lao Thief's new book would be in the martial arts genre, he would make some arrogant and exclusive remarks or question Lao Thief's martial arts creation level as usual.

But at the book launch in March, when faced with questions from reporters and the media, Mr. Yu replied with a smile:

The arrival of cement-sealed hearts is a relatively big change for the entire martial arts novel, I believe.

This is not only because the popularity of Cement Seal has brought more attention and vitality to martial arts, but also because of the author's level and innovative ability, which are rare even in Kyushu.

I admire his previous works very much. When his books are released, I will read them as soon as possible and post my thoughts after reading them.

After that, it was Mr. Yu’s assistant who said:

Media media please try to ask questions about the new book.

…

Arrogance does not mean looking down on everyone, but looking down on people who have no level and are not recognized.

When Mr. Yu was asked about some highly praised martial arts works or similar online martial arts works, Mr. Yu directly answered with one word: History.

As for the literary level of the old thief, who would not recognize it among professional authors?

Even if he may not be able to write amazing martial arts works, he is still an author worthy of Mr. Yu's respect. What's more, Mr. Yu believes that today's martial arts novels, including his own novels, have a lot of A degree of shackles.

This is the reason why Mr. Yu published a new book after six years.

There are too few authors like Lao Zei who have profound attainments in fantasy, mystery, and even fairy tale and realistic novels.

And just like after the release of the old thief's Sherlock Holmes, the entire world of suspense reasoning was shocked.

The innovation and inspiration this work brought to the majority of suspense mystery novels made Mr. Yu a little envious at the time.

To use an inappropriate metaphor, an old thief is like an emperor choosing his concubine to be his palace tonight. Whatever genre the new book is, that genre will suddenly gain the attention of countless readers. For the martial arts genre that was originally lifeless and on the verge of death, It's an absolutely good thing.

Mr. Yu himself also wanted to see what the old thief's martial arts was like.

Even if he failed, Mr. Yu still felt that it was normal. Martial arts novels are really not that easy to write.

…

Since April, a lot of fans have been calling for it!

The media attention in major Kyushu areas also directly attracted full attention.

How could another series of works following the Harry Potter series and the Sherlock Holmes series not attract attention?

The degree of discussion on the Internet has always been high, but regardless of the genre or the doubts, buy the old thief's work first!

I hope it won't be an outdated work...

To be honest, the name Legend of the Condor Heroes sounds a bit outdated...

I don't like martial arts very much. This time, I will support the old thief's martial arts in whatever he says. Get up early tomorrow!

Woohoo! I have another book to read!!

Are martial arts dead or not? I'm afraid this series of the old thief will give us the answer. If the old thief can't save the martial arts, then I'm afraid no one in the martial arts novels can save him.

Then this is not so absolute. There are still many outstanding writers of martial arts.

…

Because of the old thief's past reputation and the quality of his works, coupled with the extremely high popularity of the completion of Demon Slayer, The Legend of the Condor Heroes reached unprecedented popularity on the eve of its release.

Book fans are surprisingly enthusiastic about buying this type of book. After all, most Xiazhou readers are willing to pay for it, and Kyushu readers are even more excited.

In the blink of an eye, it’s April 17th.

The much-anticipated new work of the old thief, The Legend of the Condor Heroes has launched global sales in Kyushu!

Whether the martial arts is dead or not, this book will give the answer!
