Cao Dawei is very lucky that Bai Qianqu is the screenwriter of this film, and training the actors is free of charge.

Otherwise, the training fee alone would not be enough to cover the entire movie budget.

And while the filming of "Crazy Stone" is in full swing, the competition between "Lin Yi" and "Reader" has also reached a fever pitch.

In order to grab readers' attention, they use all their cards.

"Lin Yi" took the lead and began to spare no effort to promote their activities. The focus was on forty famous short story authors anonymously publishing their works. This gimmick was quite big and attracted many readers.

Nowadays, as soon as you open major software, you can see the advertisements they put in, and everyone knows about it.

"Reader" was naturally not to be outdone, and they soon began to vigorously promote Yang Yagang. The focus of their promotion was to highlight a senior person.

Yang Yagang's fan base is not a small number, and almost all short story readers have read his works.

"Reader" uses Yang Yagang for promotion, and it also has its own Xiao Jiujiu in mind.

Although there are many authors in "Lin Yi", in terms of strength, Yang Yagang can definitely crush them. As long as the other party's works are not better than Yang Yagang, it will be useless no matter how many they have.

This is the legendary "one man can guard the barrier, but ten thousand men cannot open it"!

During this time, Bai Qianqu's novel "The Necklace" was also successfully sent to "Lin Yi" and was waiting for its official release when the time came.

Many short story readers can't wait. For them, this is a reading feast. No matter how the two magazines fight, the readers will ultimately benefit.

Of course, in addition to readers, there are also many industry professionals who are paying attention to the competition between the two magazines.

After all, it is rare for so many top writers to face off against each other. Even if they are just watching, they can absorb a lot of experience and insights.

This will be of great help to their future creations.

Under the spotlight, the day came soon for the script activities of the two magazines.

"Lin Yi" directly released an event announcement, and a long list of nonsense was automatically omitted, the most important of which was only this paragraph -

[Each Linyi user has three opportunities to vote. When the user has read for five minutes, he or she can vote at the end of the article. Each entry can be voted by a single person up to three times. The final ranking of the works will be sorted by the number of votes. For better fairness and fun, we have hidden the author's name of each work and set up an author guessing option. You can choose the author's name you think is most likely at the beginning of each work. After the final name is announced, users who guess correctly will get a chance to win a mysterious prize, up to the latest fruit phone: Apple 200 pro max! 】

"Lin Yi" has publicized this matter before, but when they saw the announcement, everyone still thought this operation was very embarrassing.

This trick directly removes the so-called fan filter, even if you have more fans, it will be useless.

Even if fans want to vote for their idols, they must know which work belongs to them.

And because the authors have signed confidentiality clauses, no one can reveal the names of their works.

Now fans can only tell the difference by reading the works carefully, but no one can tell for sure. Those participating in the competition are all veterans, and their styles are relatively complex, without any obvious characteristics.

"This event is quite interesting."

"Yes, Lin Yi obviously went through a screening process when selecting the invitees. The styles of these forty authors are relatively vague, and many of them even have similar writing styles."

"This is what Lin Yi wants to see. This is interesting. We can also make our own guesses."

"I didn't feel much about it at first, but now I'm starting to get a little interested."

"Damn it, the prize is the latest fruit phone! Now I have to participate."

......

As the event began, people flocked to the event and directly entered the event interface to start reading the forty short stories.

The length of the works is not very long, and everyone is a master, so the word count is controlled to about 5,000 words. This word count is the most suitable for participating in the competition.

Because "Lin Yi" gives the right to vote for the works to the readers, which means that the readers are all judges, so everyone has a sense of responsibility and likes the feeling of being a judge.

Everyone is very careful and cautious when reading and voting. After all, their vote is likely to determine the final ranking of the work.

There are forty works, and it doesn't seem to take long. Some of them are fast, and can be read in half a day, while some of the slow ones are about the same in two days.

In addition, the quality of these works is very good, and everyone enjoys it.

As time goes by, more and more people have noticed the work "Necklace".

Many people originally just wanted to come and take a look, but when they finished watching the ending, they all fell silent. Some were even stunned on the spot, petrified by the impact of the ending of the work.

This is a normal thing. After all, "The Necklace" was created by the French writer Maupassant, and Maupassant is known as the "King of the World's Short Stories" in modern literature. He is also known as the "King of Short Stories in the World" along with Russian Chekhov and American O. Henry. "Three Great Masters of Short Stories in the World", he is the writer with the largest number of short stories and the highest achievements in the history of French literature.

Maupassant's works have a pungent style, and are good at capturing and discovering typical fragments of ordinary and trivial life, reflecting reality from a small perspective, and describing the human world. In addition, his novels are unique in their conception and layout, and their character language and story endings are unique. People have endless aftertaste. And "The Necklace" is one of his masterpieces, and can even be said to be his pinnacle work.

As Zola said of Maupassant: "His works can make people laugh or cry, but they are always thought-provoking."

Although the cultural development of this world is slow, the average level of art appreciation is higher than that of the original world. It is impossible for readers not to see the power of "The Necklace".

Although everyone does not know the name of the author of this work, it does not affect everyone's comments on this novel.

"I really like this work! I was shocked after reading the ending!"

"This heroine is so vain! If she hadn't insisted on borrowing that necklace, the following things wouldn't have happened! A family was ruined like this!"

"It can't be said that. Although the heroine is indeed a bit vain, she also has shining points. She has tenacity and integrity in repaying debts for ten years. It is pitiful for a low-class person to work half his life for a fake necklace!"
