Chapter 164

Liu Miao has become completely famous in the literary world recently, but of course it is not a good reputation.News and comments about Liu Miao's "thigh hugging" and "love to hype" are endless, and even Gu Chongguang, who has nothing to do with Liu Miao, is lying on the ground. Who made Gu Chongguang the number one hype king in the popular literary world back then?Especially on the Green Mountain Forum, there are more and more posts about complaining to the British Embassy in China that Liu Miao insulted the British princess, so high that even Zhang Meiqing is a little frightened.

You must know that Zhang Meiqing was also posted on the Green Mountain Forum for plagiarism back then. The reason was that Zhang Meiqing's novels plagiarized the "Xinhua Dictionary" of the Commercial Publishing House.This absurd evidence has actually won the support of many people in the Green Mountain Forum, because most of the replyers on the Green Mountain Forum never read what the main post said. A swarm of bees came in and sent the author to the eighteenth level of hell.

It's just that after such absurd "plagiarism" evidence was exposed by other literary forums, Zhang Meiqing's reputation was naturally clarified, but the Green Mountain Forum was still relentless.Until now, the people on the Green Mountain Forum are still saying, "Zhang Meiqing? I remember she copied it? Yes, she copied the "Xinhua Dictionary."

"If a dog bites a person, the person should not bite back." Liu Miao said to Zhang Meiqing calmly.

Liu Miao's counterattack was actually very simple, and he directly let the lawyer and the police deal with it.Seeing Liu Miao's silence, the people on the Green Mountain Forum thought they had caught a soft persimmon again, so the various attacks became more and more excessive.Therefore, Liu Miao's legal team directly demanded the police to intervene for the crime of "insult" and "defamation", and the police naturally possessed a large number of IPs.Since Huaxia uses a dynamic IP, most of the suspects cannot be locked.However, the police are not completely vegetarian. They used the method of cross-comparison to screen out a few suspects.

After the police quickly arrested them, Liu Miao's legal team immediately launched a civil lawsuit.Liu Miao's approach is very simple. They don't need to go to jail, but they must pay until they go bankrupt.For some minors, Liu Miao handed them over to the police for punishment.The police's measures are also very simple, ordering a public apology and compensation for losses, otherwise they will be sent to work-study schools or juvenile detention centers.The child's parents naturally don't want the child to go to work or school, but even if the damages are compensated, the child's file still leaves a very ugly stain.Many parents cried and hoped that Liu Miao could withdraw the lawsuit, but Liu Miao's lawyers refused.

In Liu Miao's view, "children" must not be a reason for a person to make mistakes and not be punished.Even the ancestors of China knew the theory of stealing needles when they were young and stealing gold when they were young, but modern people think that as long as they are children, they should not be punished.Even a 24-year-old boy who made a mistake can call him a child.

Liu Miao could only sneer, my child, how many crimes have been committed in your name!

Because of the sudden attack by Liu Miao's lawyers and the police, the "critics" of the Green Mountain Forum have restrained themselves, and now they only dare to use Liu Miao's borrowing of the British princess to hype themselves up.But soon the critics of the Green Mountain Forum wanted to eat back everything they had said, because a British cultural counselor in China said in an interview with reporters: "Yes, "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes" was published in the UK. The publication was indeed proposed by Her Royal Highness Princess Anne. During Her Royal Highness Princess Anne's visit to China next month, she is very much looking forward to meeting the author of this book. For this reason, Her Royal Highness will prepare a corresponding royal afternoon tea party to invite Liu Miao Sir, I think Mr. Liu Miao should receive an official invitation letter from the royal family soon."

The counselor showed envy when he expected the afternoon tea party.In fact, as the few royal families on this planet that have been handed down to this day, most of the members of the royal family have very high cultural literacy.After all, European royal families in the Middle Ages and the Industrial Revolution generally appeared as patrons of the arts and patrons of writers.For example, during the Victorian period, Prince Albert, the husband-in-law, was the founder and main sponsor of the Royal Society; at the same time, the British royal family also sheltered a group of French writers from the Carbonar Party.Therefore, the artistic taste of the British royal family is almost unquestionable, especially Her Royal Highness Princess Anne is also the Chancellor of the University of London, one of the Golden Triangle Universities in the United Kingdom, so when "Detective Sherlock Holmes" was recommended by Princess Anne, this book immediately became a bestseller in Europe.Especially as a very strict reasoning novel, "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes" has almost become a sample of this type of novel.

With the clarification from the British side, all the unfavorable remarks about the book suddenly disappeared.Now "The Collected Cases of Sherlock Holmes" has become a book that can affect the friendship between the two countries, so speeches that slander this book can naturally no longer appear.With this shareholder wind, the sales of the three books "The Four Signatures", "A Study in Scarlet" and "The Collection of Sherlock Holmes" soared all over the country.So many people dubbed Liu Miao the "Little Heavenly King of Mystery Fiction", which made Liu Miao a little depressed.Fortunately, the success of his mystery novels also brought about the best-selling of "Seven Swords Under Tianshan".The book "Seven Swords Under Tianshan" itself is a new style of martial arts based on traditional martial arts, so this book soon entered the eyes of readers of martial arts novels, making Liu Miao accepted by the orthodox popular literary world for the first time.

However, it was the invitation from Princess Anne that made Liu Miao famous the most. For this afternoon tea party, Liu Miao specially prepared a gift - "The Mysterious Case of Stiles" and "The Mystery of the Apartment".This is the debut novel of the later Agatha Christie, and it is also a mystery novel that is completely different from Sherlock Holmes.In Conan Doyle's works, Sherlock Holmes often uses deduction and forensic science to reason; but Agatha Christie's novels are often secret room murders, and the victims often die of various poisons.Therefore, mystery novels like Sherlock Holmes are more like TV series like csi, while mystery novels by Poirot and Miss Marple are like Japanese-style reasoning film and television works.Princess Anne is very happy with Liu Miao's new book, especially after learning that Polo and Miss Marple are also British, Princess Anne is even more interested.

Naturally, there was an accompanying reporter for this meeting. When the people of the country knew that Liu Miao had created two other great detectives, the literary world completely put the hat of "Little King of Reasoning" on Liu Miao's head.The Boys' Club took advantage of the victory to attack, because of the Sherlock Holmes craze, the Polo Detective series and the Marple Detective Miss series were successively launched.

The popularity of the three detective series in China and even the world has attracted the attention of the Japanese literary world. Like the previous life, Japan is still the world's largest concentration of detective novels.To Liu Miao's surprise, Ranpo Edogawa, a master of original reasoning, appeared in Japan at this time.But thinking about it, without this master's advocacy, Japanese detective novels would probably have been ruined by the Chinese.Although the Polo series and the Miss Marple series are related to the novels of the Benge style, in fact, the three series written by Liu Miao are all social mystery novels.In the eyes of the Japanese, this is simply a rebellious mystery novel.

Because the Japanese Benge school thinks that mystery novels are an intellectual game, and the social school detective novels are simply an insult to reasoning.The Benge School has fixedly stipulated the creation discussion of mystery novels, for example: all storylines must take place in a closed space; the victim must be murdered in a secret room; modern criminal investigation technology cannot be used; After the introduction, even the characters who appear later must be introduced at the beginning; during the detective reasoning, the murder must continue to happen; in the end, the murderer must be the most unexpected person, if it is guessed by the reader, it is not a good novel.

In fact, Liu Miao's impression of Bengepai is not bad, because he has three major detective series in his hands, so Liu Miao had to give the three detectives different styles.Sherlock Holmes is good at deduction; Poirot is good at reasoning; and Miss Marple is good at medicine. Therefore, when Liu Miao created these three series, he more or less absorbed the advantages of the original school.However, the fixed mode of creation of the Benge School was abandoned, because creation should be free, and creation with a prescribed format would inevitably decline.

Parallel prose in the history of Chinese literature is extremely gorgeous, but it is precisely because it restricts the freedom of creators that it was finally defeated by prose, and finally reduced to a chapter in literary history, and prose is still the style that various authors love to use.At first, Liu Miao didn't care about the criticism from the Japanese literary world, but after Shoji Shimada's comments were reprinted by Huaxia, Liu Miao found himself in a situation where he had to fight back.

Shoji Shimada is known as another master-level mystery writer in Japan after Ranpo Edogawa.In particular, Shoji Shimada and his disciples and followers introduced science fiction and magical themes into the mystery novels of the Benge School, which not only enriched the elements of the mystery novels of the School, but also made the mystery novels of the Benge School regain the favor of the popular literary world.And Shoji Shimada also won the title of "Master of Mystery Novels of the New Benge School" in Asia. Now this master officially sent a text to Liu Miao, asking the two to use the sales of mystery novels to decide who is the winner. The best mystery writer in Asia.As soon as this remark came out, it immediately rose to the national level, and countless Chinese people asked Liu Miao to play.

After a week of silence, Liu Miao posted the beginning of the [-]-character novel on her blog, and wrote in red letters, "If you want to fight, then fight!" "The Devotion of Suspect X" will be officially launched next week. issued."

After learning that Liu Miao had accepted the challenge, Shoji Shimada also handed over "Astrology Killing Magic", which he had painstakingly created for a year, to Kadokawa Shoten in Japan for distribution.For the sake of fairness, the Chinese version of "Astrological Killing Magic" was translated and distributed by Liu Miao's publishing house; while the Japanese version of "The Devotion of Suspect X" was translated and distributed by Shimada Shoji's publishing house.But to Shimada's dismay, what Liu Miao handed over directly was the Japanese version of "The Devotion of Suspect X".And the fluency of this Japanese version seems to be written by a native Japanese speaker. The proofreaders of Kadokawa Shoten could not provide any proofreading comments, so they could only publish it directly.

Shimada suddenly felt that he might fail, because no matter how good the translation is, it is not as good as the original author who understands all the details of the novel.Any literati knows that the translation of every work is actually the loss and deformation of the text.Although there are examples of that kind of translation that are equally excellent, can you guarantee that it is the translation in the mind of the original author?However, even if the original author is proficient in various foreign languages, he cannot translate like a native speaker.Therefore, the Chinese cannot appreciate Shakespeare; and the British cannot appreciate Li Bai.But do you dare to say who is better, Li Bai or Shakespeare?But the translation that Liu Miao produced seems to be an authentic Japanese creation, and the whole novel is actually the most traditional and authentic mystery mystery novel, even Shoji Shimada can't fault it.

"Maybe I'm really going to be defeated by this brat?" Shimada felt ominous foreboding.
