But it’s now 1992, and he really doesn’t know much about the literature of this era. What he reads most are online novels.
It's just that if the online novels of later generations were placed in this era, they might not be able to catch the eyes of editors, so choosing 'creation' is the top priority.
A few days ago, he forcibly obtained several novels from Qiu Shui and read them carefully, which gave him a preliminary understanding of the literary novels of this era.
The difference between traditional novels and online novels is actually very huge. Zhou Chen, who is used to online novels, may find it difficult to change his mind at once.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Chen decided to follow his own ideas and chose two novels. If neither novel worked, then he would have no choice but to give up.
Martial arts novels in this era are still very popular, but if you want to publish them, realistic ones seem to have an advantage.
So Zhou Chen conservatively chose two novels, one is an upgraded version of martial arts and a fairy tale novel, and the other is a youth reality novel.
Xianxia novels actually appeared very early, but there was no such concept before. Zhou Chen thought he could give it a try, so he chose "Zhu Xian".
Although "Zhu Xian" is not necessarily the best Xianxia online novel after the 21st century, it definitely has a huge influence. There are many TV series, games, and movies adapted from this novel in later generations.
Zhu Xian is not an upgrade stream in online articles. On the contrary, a large part of it describes emotions, the relationship between master and disciple, brotherhood, love, and the battle between good and evil is very richly rendered.
When he first read this novel, Zhou Chen liked it very much. Even now, he still has three paper copies of the Zhu Xian novel at home.
It is precisely because of this that he can still remember the plot of this novel. With his current ability, he cannot copy it, but he can imitate it 70% to 80%.
If the BUG part is slightly fixed, the quality may be improved to a higher level.
Zhu Xian has more than one million words, which is definitely a long novel in this era. As long as it can be serialized, it can be serialized for a long time.
Another novel was written by a young writer he liked very much, Han Han's "Three Gates".
This novel was really a sensation at the time, becoming a best-seller continuously and making Han Han, a high school student, famous.
It's just that now he has to write it seven or eight years in advance. It's hard to say whether it can cause a sensation later, and the background needs to be changed more than Zhu Xian.
Zhu Xian and The Three Gates was the novel chosen by Zhou Chen. He planned to write it at the same time, and then chose to submit it when he had finished writing part of it.
Because the number of words in the triple gate was relatively small, Zhou Chen chose the triple gate first. When Qiu Shui and the others came around, they saw the triple gate.
"Three Doors? What's the title of this book? Suspenseful?"
When Qiu Shui saw the title of the book, he was a little dazed. He thought Zhou Chen had written a romance novel.
Zhou Chen glared at him: "Sister Xuan, you are the only one who calls yourself a scholar. Do you only read names when reading books?"
"Oh, let me see, let me see the content."
Qiu Shui started to read the content, and Xin Yi and others gathered around him, arguing about what to read.
After a long commotion, a group of people gathered around the table and started reading.
A few minutes later, this group of people were even more surprised, because in their opinion, the beginning of Zhou Chen's novel was very good, and at least they felt good after reading it.
Qiu Shui even made suggestions for Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, I think your novel is good. Which newspaper and magazine are you going to submit? I have researched several literary magazines in Yanjing, and some of them are very powerful. Do you want my help?
Do you recommend it?”
Zhou Chen really didn't know much about the situation in Yanjing, so he naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Tell me about it."
Then Qiu Shui told Zhou Chen everything he knew. He sincerely hoped that Zhou Chen's novel would be read. If Zhou Chen's novel was read, it would be a huge incentive for him and would make him more determined.
Literary creation, rather than giving up halfway.
Time flies, and life in the military camp is boring and boring. Every day there is military training during the day, classes at night, and then returning to the dormitory to rest.
Most people are exhausted at the end of the day. There are very few people like Zhou Chen who can still stay energetic after a day of military training.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the eve of the National Day, and the gala is also held on this day.
For this party, the military training ended early. All the instructors and students gathered in the assembly hall before four o'clock in the afternoon, waiting for the arrival of the leaders.
Before the party officially started, the students did not just sit around, but kept rehearsing.
I've been waiting since four o'clock, but it's past six o'clock and the chief hasn't come yet.
The students who were very hungry due to the excessive consumption of military training did not have time to eat, and all of them were hungry with their chests pressed against their backs.
However, after nearly a month of military training, the edges and corners of these proud college students have been smoothed away. Even if their chests are pressed against their backs due to hunger, they only dare to complain in their hearts and dare not speak out.
The students of Renhe Medical College were sitting in the front row, Zhou Chen was sitting on the edge, and next to him were Qiu Shui and others.
This time he is going to sing "Goodbye Veteran", which requires the cooperation of more than a dozen classmates, but they only need to stand on the stage and respond in time when called. He will do the other parts by himself.
Finish.
Xiao Hong forced herself from the girl's seat to sit next to Qiu Shui, and touched Qiu Shui all over her body, making Qiu Shui look around with embarrassment and a guilty conscience.
"Oh, oh, classmate Xiaohong, it's not good for you to be like this, there are so many people, don't, don't be like this, what are you trying to do?"
After a month of military training, Qiu Shui and Xiao Hong have become completely familiar with each other, and Xiao Hong has made no secret of his fondness for Qiu Shui.
It's just that Qiu Shui hasn't responded yet, firstly because of embarrassment, and secondly because of Xiaobai Gu Ming.
Gu Ming has shown in front of all the boys that he is determined to win Xiao Hong, so as a buddy, Qiu Shui feels that he cannot steal the woman his brother likes.
Xiao Hong didn't have as many worries as Qiu Shui. He looked at Qiu Shui with dull eyes and asked, "Qiu Shui, do you have anything to eat?"
"No."
"Really not?"
"It's really not true. Stop pulling it. It's so bad to let others see it."
After confirming that Qiu Shui had nothing to eat, Xiao Hong sighed with disappointment: "This place is so cruel. I'm so hungry that I'm exhausted. I just let the donkey work without letting him eat grass. It's too cruel. It's really cruel."
It’s too cruel.”
Just as Xiao Hong was complaining again and again, the head of the army walked into the assembly hall with a group of officers.
"Students, there are temporary changes in the schedule of the leader today, and the dinner time has been postponed. The specific time will be notified later."
"Keep rehearsing."
As soon as the group leader left, the auditorium immediately erupted in sighs.
They have been hungry for a long time, and now they continue to be hungry, which makes everyone really almost unbearable.
Instructor Sun took advantage of the leader to leave, quietly walked to Zhao Yingnan, and whispered: "Zhao Yingnan, come with me."
Zhao Yingnan didn't know why, but he followed him anyway.
While others were fainting from hunger, Zhou Chen very calmly took out a bag of biscuits from his arms.
Seeing the biscuits Zhou Chen took out, the eyes of everyone around him turned red.
"Fuck, Zhou Chen, where did you get the biscuits?"
"Give me some biscuits."
"Brother, we are brothers in bunk beds. Please share some of the biscuits with me."
"…………"
The boys all begged Zhou Chen with all kinds of nice words, not for anything else but for the bag of biscuits in Zhou Chen's hand.
Although the girls around him didn't speak, their eyes were all fixed on Zhou Chen's biscuits. No matter who they were, they didn't have much resistance in the face of hunger.
Only Xiao Hong was thick-skinned and said to Zhou Chen eagerly: "Zhou Chen, I'm going to starve to death. As long as you give me some biscuits, I can do whatever you want."
