The Great God of Net Wen was reborn in 1927

But after hearing what Editor-in-Chief He said, and knowing that it was not a gift, the two ladies showed even happier expressions.

The two hurriedly called the maid at home, and asked her to lead Editor-in-Chief He to the bedroom to find Xu Shaoting.

And the earnest eyes of the two of them staring at the cardboard box made Editor-in-Chief He no doubt that if the two of them were not about to go out, they might have stayed and opened the letters to see what was written in them.

It is unknown whether Xu Shaoting is happy to see these letters from readers, but these two are really happy for him.

After bidding farewell to Ms. Xu and Mrs. Xu, Editor-in-Chief He entered the bedroom of the young author with a professional servant.The other party knocked on the door and got permission from the owner of the bedroom before opening the door and inviting Editor-in-Chief He in.

Editor-in-Chief He hugged the suitcase, and peeped into the corner of the room through the open door. When he stepped into the room, he saw the bathroom with its own bathroom, modern decoration, and a large lawn with a wide view outside the French windows. It's really a rich family. Mr. Qian Fengmingyue's bedroom is half the size of his house.

Therefore, I thought to myself, it seems that Mr. Qianfeng didn't write popular novels for the royalties.

We must know that the authors are all high-income groups these days. Many authors publish several articles a month, or can have a long serial novel, and their monthly income is as high as the annual income of many ordinary people.

The second is that writing these days is also divided into high and low. The idiom that literati look down on each other is not a joke. From the perspective of outsiders, poetry, prose, editorial, and novels may all be written, but in the circle of literati, the high and low are only classified according to the type.

The most respected literati at the moment are the ones who write articles to criticize the current situation. For example, who once spoke for President Ye, whoever scolded the government the most cruelly and who has the most cruel and humorous satirical style is the one who is most respected. .

After all, don't look at just writing articles, but there is also a risk of losing your head. They are risking their lives to write articles, and they are true warriors.

So for most people who love their lives and cherish their lives, this type of author is really remarkable.

Secondly, those who write poetry and prose are also very popular. If they can be combined with current events and written with such a sense of sadness, it will spread quickly in the literati circle. From time to time, everyone will open a cultural salon and comment on it.

As for the bottom one is popular novels, of course, if you write novels such as "Les Miserables" and "Eugenie Grandet" that reflect the suffering of the people and expose the ugly human nature.

But if what you write is just an interesting plot, and you obviously care more about the "reading experience" than the author's "self-expression", then anyone can step on your foot and say something meaningless about this novel.

Of course, editor-in-chief He doesn’t think so. In his opinion, the deep themes reflected in serious novels are naturally good, but popular novels can bring people satisfaction in reading and mood, so why bother to criticize them?

These are just two choices that apples are delicious and oranges are not bad.

It's just that he didn't think it was useless. Editor-in-Chief He, who was holding the box, only hoped that Qian Fengmingyue, a too young author, would be encouraged after reading letters from readers.

Because: In fact, these letters from readers have been opened and read in advance, and all that is left are positive content that praises and urges the serialization.

Xu Shaoting was originally writing the new outline of "The Great Dao of Immortal Journey", when he turned his chair, he first caught sight of a big box, and then he noticed the editor-in-chief's head behind the box.

He hurriedly said embarrassingly: "It's fine if the person comes, and bring any gifts."

Editor-in-Chief He put the box in front of the young man, thinking that he really deserves to be a family.

Cai smiled and said, "Mr. Qianfeng, this is a gift you must accept—these are letters sent to you by readers."

Xu Shaoting glanced at the big box with hesitation on his face: "How many envelopes does this have to have?"

Editor-in-Chief He reported a number: "Not many, just over 300."

Xu Shaoting: "Isn't that much?!"

Putting it on the Internet a hundred years later, he certainly wouldn't think that there are so many [-] comments, and some popular novels can achieve more than [-] comments per chapter.But this is a letter that requires a pen to put a stamp on it, and it costs money to send it to the post office.

If it was him, Xu Shaoting thought, he probably wanted to leave a message for the author, but considering how troublesome it is, there would probably be only five words left: forget it.

Editor-in-Chief He almost slipped the tongue: "That's not all."

Swallowing the second half of the sentence in time, we screened out all those who scolded you.

Xu Shaoting really looked at Editor-in-Chief He suspiciously: "What do you mean it's not all?"

Editor-in-chief He replied without changing his face: "There will be more letters later."

"Hey, why are you talking so much? You can quickly open and read these letters. If you want to reply, you can write it down. We will have an editor to send it to the corresponding readers."

Under the urging of Editor-in-Chief He, for the sake of convenience, and the room was cleaned every day, Shao Ting simply pulled a cushion and sat cross-legged on the ground. He tilted the box with both hands, and the letters poured down like snowflakes.

In fact, there are more than 300 letters spread on one person, which is quite a lot. In the end, the editor-in-chief He opened the envelope, and Shaoting took the letter paper inside. One of them was only responsible for opening, and the other was only responsible for reading. It has improved a lot of efficiency.

Before opening the letter, Shaoting was also curious about what kind of comments readers would make on "The Way of the Great Dao" at this time, and if the letter was interpreted as a message, what kind of message would be in a different style compared to later generations .

After reading several copies, Shaoting was embarrassed, this style... This style is not much different from 100 years later!

For example, there are only a few types:

Mr. Qianfeng, the novel you wrote is so beautiful!

Come on, look forward to the following content.

Hurry up and write, two chapters a day is simply not enough!

Xu Shaoting: To sum it up, it's spreading flowers, cheering, and urging updates... Sure enough, no matter what era you are in, you will inevitably be urged to update.

Then Xu Shaoting finally saw something different:

Mr. Qianfeng, I really like your novels. I have to read the latest serialized chapters every day. If the newspaper arrives late that day, I won’t be able to go home until after school to read "The Way of the Great Dao". I'm absent-minded.And our classmates are just like me, chasing after your novels every day!

Xu Shaoting: Young people, study is the most important thing...and according to the trend you said, it won't be long before parents and teachers should unite to boycott novels.

It's just that I scanned more and more letters at a glance, but I also saw some letters that might have more content in the same compliments, so they read very sincere letters.

For example, originally I read the letters one by one, and put them aside after reading one, but when Editor-in-Chief He handed over a stack, it was not an exaggeration, and Xu Shaoting was stunned when he took it: "Is this a letter from a person?"

Editor-in-Chief He just smiled mysteriously, "You'll know it when you look at it."

Xu Shaoting lowered his head to look at it, and laughed when he finished reading it. This stack of letters came from more than 30 middle school students aged thirteen and fourteen. They were from the same grade of a certain middle school. Originally, a student wrote to him , but was discovered by a classmate, and the letter turned into a message board.

The thirteen and fourteen-year-old children talked to each other. This letter sent to him was like a message board for the novel "The Great Dao Xiantu". Childish yet extremely sincere.

After reading it, Xu Shaoting really couldn't laugh or cry. He wanted to say that you all studied hard, but your heart was warmed up in the cold autumn day.

When he saw the letter behind, Xu Shaoting even wiped his eyes.

Editor-in-Chief He seemed to know which one he saw, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Why are you crying? Are you crying because of being moved?"

Xu Shaoting glanced at Editor-in-Chief He, only then did Editor-in-Chief He realize that he hadn't shed tears.

Xu Shaoting: "It's just that after looking at it for a long time, my eyes are sore."

He wouldn't let Editor-in-Chief He see that he was also feeling sour. He was indeed moved by a certain letter.

The content of the letter from the reader who moved him is as follows:

Mr. Qianfeng, it’s funny to say, I’m nearly forty years old, and I’m a mother of three children. Because I’ve been living abroad since I was a child, after returning to China, although I can communicate with people without hindrance and I can understand the language of the motherland, but I have always only been able to understand some novels, poems, and prose, but most of them are still a little difficult to read.

In fact, I am a person who likes to read very much, and I am willing to read our own articles, but my ability is really limited. In addition, I have to do housework after marriage, and I always want to improve my Chinese level. As soon as the third child was born, it was still the same and there was no progress.

Therefore, I mostly read original English books on weekdays. You must be wondering how I came into contact with "The Great Way of Immortals"-this novel was highly recommended to me by my eldest son.

He said to me at that time: Mommy, you must not be struggling with this novel.

I thought at the time, it must be written very simply, so what is the meaning of such a novel?

Until I read the three chapters from the first issue of the Shanghai Morning News that published "The Way of the Great Dao" in the stack of newspapers handed by my child, and waited for the second issue, and the third issue...unconsciously I've watched a whole week of serialization.

I'm ashamed to say that I was just excited after reading it, and I was very curious about the content of the next chapter. How will the protagonist Ye Yunqi escape from the endless night trial?

Will the witch Wushang and Ye Yunqi develop a relationship?Who is the mysterious woman in the trial environment?When did she and Ye Yunqi make the agreement of life and death?

It wasn't until this day that I read the novel from beginning to end twice again, and my mood gradually calmed down, that I realized slowly, what kind of author can write such a novel?

A world of cultivation/truth/truth/truth that has never been seen before and will never be seen in the future, stories of unconstrained imagination and suspense everywhere.

There is also such a protagonist who can say "my life is up to me", "Three thousand gods and Buddhas stand in my way, and the gods are also my enemies".

He is not just a character in a novel, isn't he actually every one of us who was teased by fate and resented when we were young?

Also, it turns out that there really is a Chinese novel that even my level can understand and even immerse myself in it.

Because of my growth experience and my Chinese level, I always felt that as a Chinese, I was out of tune with China.

The essence is that it is difficult for me to understand and integrate into Chinese culture.

But for a piece of "A Great Way to the Fairy", I can also say: Look, this is the novel of our Chinese people, this is our traditional Chinese culture and myths and legends.

Even though I have never met you and never met, but it is just a novel, but it allows me to see the unique charm of culture. Such a novel cannot be produced without a Chinese background. It makes me proud, makes me so proud, these The magnificent and legendary mythological characters and stories, the young man who fought against the gods and fate, is a character that can only be born in our Chinese civilization.

At this moment, how lucky I am to be able to read this novel because I am a Chinese, and I am so proud that my compatriots can write such a novel.

I often think about how a person defines which country he or she belongs to. In an era where nationality can be changed, is country still a noble term?

——Based on my shallow experience, the root of which country I think I belong to is the sense of cultural identity.

Even though he was born in Japan, the United Kingdom, or the United States, he is still proud of the culture of his mother country, and he is always steadfast in the civilization of his motherland even if he is far away.

Even if you are far away, you will never forget your homeland.

As far as I am writing, I never wanted to babble so much, but in the end I would like to say thank you sincerely.

Thank you for writing such an excellent novel that even someone like me can understand.

——Written by Ms. Chen in the autumn of 1927

---

This letter from Ms. Chen impressed Xu Shaoting the most and touched him the most, or it was the only letter that made him think.

Of course, there were other letters that moved him very much. For example, in the letters, several readers clearly sorted out all the current sect categories and cultivation system levels of "The Great Dao", which is even better than the outline written by Xu Shaoting himself. The setting of this piece must be clear and detailed.

There are still many long speeches, and they are also expressing their love for his novels, but Shaoting has read and wondered if there are a hundred letters, and he really can't read them. Even the editor-in-chief He suggested to take a break.

Two human males, one large and one small, sat cross-legged facing each other, and Xu Shaoting asked abruptly, "How many letters have been withheld?"

Editor-in-Chief He: "It's only two hundred—how do you know?"

Xu Shaoting: "What's so hard to guess, how could there be only letters of praise, not a single letter of scolding. Thinking about it, I know that I was detained by you."
