Chapter 1247： Not a good time to open a new book

The Jury Office of the Times Literature Award.

The 22nd Time Literary Award Ceremony is about to be held. At this time, the entire office can be described as very busy.

Yang Qiming and Li Bo are naturally also very busy, and when they chat in their spare time, they always have to mention "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and Gu Yong's new martial arts works.

Both of them felt very sorry for Gu Yong's refusal to attend the award ceremony. Like the outside world, they were both very curious about Gu Yong's true face of Lushan.

Yang Qiming said: "Gu Yongwan's refusal to attend the awards ceremony shows that he does not intend to show up in public. Lao Li, why do you think he is? You know, if he shows up in public at the awards ceremony, his reputation will definitely be violent. It will increase a lot, and it will even be able to spread abroad. After all, this is an event of common concern around the world."

Li Bo pondered: "This shows that he does not value fame too much, or that he has his own considerations, and it is not time to show up in public. Although we are all very curious about him, he has already made a decision. , We can only respect him."

Yang Qiming nodded and said: "This is natural. In addition, Li Fan's theme song for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is really worth looking forward to!"

Li Bo said: "Li Fan's music works are indeed very worth looking forward to. This time he is equivalent to teaming up with Gu Yong. Together, these two people will definitely not disappoint the outside world."

Yang Qiming said: "Gu Yong's new book should be released soon. I don't know if his new book has the level of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"?"

Li Bo said: "To be honest, I think he chose to publish the new book too early. It is not more than a month before the end of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the end of it is still hard to let go. Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and the Five Wonders of the World. The stories of Zhou Botong and others always give people the illusion that they are not over yet.

Under such circumstances, even if the quality of his new book is not under the "Biography of the Condor Heroes", readers are afraid that it will be difficult. They immediately put all their minds into the new book, and it will definitely be Constantly comparing the new book with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not good for the new book. "

Yang Qiming nodded and said: "Lao Li, what you said is right, in fact, I also have such concerns. It stands to reason that Gu Yong should be able to think of this. After all, the influence of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is really too great. But he Why are you in such a hurry to publish new books? In order not to keep the martial arts fans from waiting too long?"

Li Bo said: "It should not be. After "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", even if Gu Yong waited to release a new book last year, martial arts fans will definitely be able to accept and wait. Gu Yong should understand this. So. He is not worried that martial arts fans can’t wait to release a new book so quickly. Rather, he is sure that his new book will not be affected by The Legend of the Condor Heroes."

"Oh?" Yang Qiming said: "It is almost impossible for the new book to be unaffected by The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Now on the Internet, martial arts fans have always been obsessed with "Shooting the Condor", especially At the end, there are still many sentimental people."

Li Bo said: "This is also what I am puzzled about. How can I prevent the new book from being affected by "Shooting the Condor"? That's why I said that he chose to open the new book so early. It was not a wise decision. ."

Yang Qiming thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "No, don't think about it. Gu Yong is not an ordinary author, he must have his own considerations. I now want to know when his new book will start serializing? Honestly, I told him I look forward to the new book very much!"

Li Bo said: "The last time he said it was mid-December, and now the mid-term has passed. I wonder if the next issue of "Laughing Jianghu" magazine will start serialization?"

Yang Qiming said: "The next issue of "Laughing Rivers and Lakes"? Isn't that the day after tomorrow? You mean he will suddenly start serialization without notice?"

Li Bo smiled and said, "Do you think Gu Yong's new martial arts works need pre-publicity?"

Yang Qiming also smiled and said: "That's true, there is no need for publicity at all. Countless people have long been waiting eagerly. Moreover, according to Gu Yong's style of acting, it is really possible that the next issue of "Laughing Jianghu" will be directly Start serialization. So, for the next issue of "Laughing Jianghu", I have to buy a copy."

Li Bo said, "Bring me a copy by the way."

Yang Qiming smiled and said: "Okay, you old Li, that's all, judging from your top-notch analysis today, I will help you bring a copy of it."

...

Sansheng Village, Yuanlai is in front.

After Li Fan, Zheng Jie, and Liang Sheng talked for a while, several elderly people walked over from the direction of the newly built rental courtyard.

The last time the village head Li Fu hosted a banquet for the tenants of the rental courtyard, Li Fan met these elderly people.

In this way, the tenants of the newly built rental courtyard have moved over in the period of time since I left the village chief.

Several elderly people approached, saw Li Fan, with joy on his face, and said, "Mr. Li is back!"

Li Fan hurriedly said: "A few old people are too polite. They call me by name, or "Fanzi", but don't want to be called "Mr."."

Several old people smiled heartily, and one of them said: "Then we will let you grow old and call you "Fanzi"."

Li Fan said, "It should be the case. How many people came to play chess with Lao Zheng and Lao Liang?"

Li Fan remembered that on the day of the banquet, these old men were quite happy to play chess.

An old man said: "That's right, Fanzi is interested in playing chess?"

Before Li Fan spoke, Zheng Jie said first: "He is also a little interested in playing chess, but it's a pity that his chess skills are too poor. It is far from my opponent.

Li Fan suddenly rolled his eyes, but Zheng Jie's words were correct. His chess skills were indeed average, far from being rivals between Zheng Jie and Liang Sheng.

Even if the two make Li Fan a "car", a "horse", and a "cannon", Li Fan may not be able to win.

Of course, if Li Fan is willing to spend some prestige instructions, draw a chess skill book, and definitely become a chess master in minutes.

It's just that Li Fan doesn't intend to do this. For Li Fan, playing chess is just an occasional pastime. If you become a chess master with a skill book, you will lose your own fun.

Now that several old people are here, this chess battle will naturally begin.

Zheng Jie got up and went to the room to take out two chess pieces, divided into two groups of people and opened the battle.

Zheng Jie and Liang Sheng met an old man respectively, while the others were watching the battle.

Li Fan also looked around with interest for a while, the difference between the two sides' chess strength was not big, and it was difficult to distinguish between them.

After watching for a while, Li Fan left, and after traveling around the village, he returned home.
