In the past few days, Li Fan has been busy with his chef team, and has not made any preparations for the myth and legend creation contest.
However, the other authors who were preparing to participate in the competition had their brains exhausted for the entries.
It seems that this thing is not too difficult to create, but when they really started to think about it seriously, they found that it was far more difficult to create a good mythological work than they thought.
It is true that there are many materials they can choose from, and there are records of mythological elements in some historical books, inscriptions and inscriptions.
For example: "Kuafu is chasing the sun", "Gonggong hits the mountain", "Chang'e is flying to the moon" and so on.
However, it is a pity that there are only such a few words in those related records.
Everyone can see that these are all mythological elements, but why does Kuafu chase the sun? Why did Gonggong hit the mountain? What kind of mountain did it hit? Why does Chang'e fly to the moon?
None of this is known, and there is no record.
In addition, some historians have sorted out the mythological elements that appear in the classics into relevant materials, and can search them out using any search tool on the Internet.
Even without searching at all, everyone knows many mythological elements. Because those mythological elements have spread among the people.
Not to mention their authors, ordinary people, even those several years old, know a lot of mythological elements.
There are so many materials to choose from, it doesn't seem to be too difficult to choose a material to create myths and legends. This is also the reason why many authors are full of confidence before.
It's just that when they really wanted to choose a material for creation, they found that no matter which material it seemed to be neat.
Of course they can make up the story, and there is no shortage of wonderful things, but when they show the works they have created to their relatives and friends around them, everyone said that the story seems to be good, but it just doesn't feel right.
In fact, when they look at their own works, they also feel that they are wrong. No one knows why? But it really exists, and it makes people feel distressed.
...
Of course, as the saying goes, there is no way in the world, and there will be a way if there are more people walking.
The current mythology and legend creation contest seems to be like this. There were no myths originally, but now that there are more people who create, there will always be people who create works that seem to be okay.
For example, Xue Mubai, a well-known youth novel writer in the country, created such a work.
Xue Mubai, handsome and rich in gold, 30 years old this year, is in the golden age of his life, is the domestic youth literature magazine, the largest circulation magazine, the author of the Italian Fiction Magazine.
His works are mainly youth love novels, which are very popular among young people today, especially young women.
It is said that it has many loyal young female fans.
The mythological element he chose was "Hou Yi shoots the sun." It is said that he was suddenly inspired when he was observing the sunset yesterday evening and hurried home to write this work.
The entire creative process was completed overnight, without any hesitation or pause.
After the work was completed, Xue Mubai laughed at his work.
perfect! It's perfect!
This may not be the real "Hou Yi shooting the sun", but Xue Mubai thinks that his work is enough to be fake and true. After people read it, they will definitely be surprised and satisfied.
He believes that even Li Fan also uses the elements of "Hou Yi shoots the sun" to create, and his works cannot be better than his.
In Xue Mubai's circle of writers, the writers talked the most in the past two days, naturally this time the myth and legend creation contest.
"Three days have passed, how are you preparing for your work?"
"It's okay, I finally found an inspiration that satisfies myself. My requirements are not high. I can enter the top ten."
"My goal is also in the top ten, but I still have another goal, that is, someone's work can surpass Li Fan's work, so that he can't get the first place."
"Hey! It seems that I am not the only person who has this idea. I have no grievances with that Li Fan. However, the kid will definitely think that he is the first one. When I think of this, I feel uncomfortable. This is not to look down. Do we have so many authors? So, someone must surpass him this time, and see how he can be troubled?"
"He wants to be number one? I have to ask if I agree or not?"
"Haha! It's Old Xue, I know that Old Xue won't let us down."
"Oh? Lao Xue's work is ready too?"
"Well, this time I have absolute confidence to beat that Li Fan."
"Haha! Then we congratulate Lao Xue in advance, that Li Fan is known as the first person in fairy tales, an unborn genius in poetry and poetry. If Lao Xue can use this opportunity to defeat him, it will not only damage his reputation, but also Lao Xue's Fame will definitely grow violently, Old Xue, you must treat yourself to this!"
"It's easy to say! It's easy to say! Let's try our best. This is indeed a great opportunity to improve our reputation."
"..."
...
For this competition, every author has his own clear goal after trying to create.
Some authors know that they can't compare with those famous artists. Their goal is to use this opportunity to show their faces in front of all netizens across the country.
If you are lucky enough to be noticed by a big man in the Ministry of Culture, that would be a surprise. As for the ranking, they would not dare to think about it.
There are also some authors who have confidence in themselves, or authors who have received some kind of inspiration. Their goal is naturally the top ten.
No matter how good your Li Fan is, can you still make up the top ten? Up to two places are reserved for you, and there are eight places left. They are confident that they can become one of them.
There is also an author who is super confident in himself because of his inspiration, such as Xue Mubai. Their goal is to go straight to the first place.
Li Fan? They admit that Li Fan is indeed a genius.
However, I'm sorry, this time they are afraid that they will overpower Li Fan's fame.
Everyone knows that the trigger of this competition is the story of Li Fan's Zodiac series.
Therefore, everyone believes that Li Fan is definitely the person who is most hopeful of winning the first place in this competition. Some people even think that Li Fan's first place is a certainty and will definitely not run.
In this case, if they can defeat Li Fan and win the first place, the impact and sensation it will cause will definitely far exceed Li Fan's first place.
Their reputation will undoubtedly skyrocket.
The authors who thought of this all became excited and excited.
Moreover, there are writers with more active minds and thought that just in this way, its influence has not been maximized.
The most direct way to maximize the influence is to declare war with Li Fan on the Internet before submitting the paper, so that your attention will reach the same height as Li Fan from the beginning.
It's just that there are risks, if you haven't beaten Li Fan in the end, it would be a shame.
Well, this has to be weighed against the pros and cons.
Those active-minded authors frowned slightly, carefully considering this issue in their hearts.
