When it comes to online writers eye-catching, the first thing that many readers think of is his classic work "Golden Pupil". This novel depicting cultural relics and treasures has not only opened up the market for pawned antique novels, but also attracted a large number of authors to follow and become the pioneering work of antique treasure online literature. Subsequently, his "Genius Xiangshi", "Treasure Book", and "Shen Zang" were released one after another, which attracted attention. At the beginning of December this year, the 9.67 million-word Xian Xia novel "Immortal Palace", which took two years and eight months to create, was completed. At the end of "Immortal Palace", Dayan accepted an exclusive interview with the cover news reporter.
Web writers hit the eye
Exposure to the pawn antiques industry for many years
Experience + knowledge contribute to "Golden Pupil"
Tang Yong, whose real name is Tang Yong, is a native of Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, and is currently the chairman of the Hainan Internet Writers Association.
Before the official opening of online text creation, it has been nearly 10 years since eye contact with the pawn antique industry. "Around 2000, I was working in Shenzhen, helping people in the calligraphy and painting business. There is an antique market in Shenzhen Book City, and when I am not busy at work, I often go inside. Although I don't work in the pawn shop, I also know a lot about the doorway inside. At that time, there were many people from other places who came to buy calligraphy and paintings, and the overall market situation was also good. ”
In those years, I have seen the joy of collectors buying genuine goods, and I have also witnessed the loss of many people who have spent thousands of dollars but only received fakes. "I've always loved reading books, from traditional literature to online literature. I remember that sometime in 2009, I suddenly found that I had finished reading the books on the market that attracted me, and I had the idea of creating. In addition, seeing that many people are lost because they have bought fake antiques, they begin to fantasize about whether they can one day obtain some kind of skill, magic - through a certain object to see the essence of antiques. Of course, this is pure dreaming, which cannot appear in reality, so write this book. "Golden Pupil", also came out. ”
In "Golden Pupil", Zhuang Rui, a small clerk working in a pawn shop, changed his eyes due to an accident, and since then he has hung all the way, easily treasure hunting, and realizing the counterattack of life. "A lot of the knowledge mentioned in the book has traces to follow, including the appreciation of antiques, historical traceability, historical value, etc., which are observations and echoes of the real antique market." He confessed that in order to create this book, he consulted a lot of materials and books. "To write a book, you must look up a lot of information, whether it is the antique artifact itself, or the history and culture behind it, the knowledge in it is very deep."
The explosion of "Golden Pupil" has triggered many hot discussions, and also made the IP of "Golden Pupil" enter the vision of more people. He smiled and recalled: "Once I went to Yunnan on a trip, I saw an antique shop called 'Golden Pupil'. Startling me, I thought to myself, 'Do you want to settle this copyright?' Later, "Golden Pupil" was adapted into a TV series, starring Zhang Yixing. This drama is a work out of the circle. Many bloggers who now live gamble stones sometimes joke that 'you think you have a golden pupil', 'you think you are Zhang Yixing', which also shows the influence of "Golden Pupil". ”
It's common to create a Cavan
It takes a lot of reading and continuous learning
When I first wrote, I originally just wanted to explain the people and things I came into contact with in my life through words. "At the beginning, when I started creating, it was relatively simple, that is, I used a story to string together the whole thread. Later, I wrote for a long time and was comfortable, and I didn't think it was difficult to write a book. In his view, online literature is very different from other creations. "Online texts are written every day, but not every day with inspiration. The later the period, the more inspiration emerges, the more common Cavan becomes. At this time, it is more necessary to carry out a lot of reading, and to stimulate their own creation through reading. ”
Especially for antique treasure novels, in addition to the need to precipitate and accumulate a large amount of appreciation knowledge, art and historical and cultural background, it is also necessary to have some feelings for the deceit in the antique market. "Many of my stories are based on reality, but when they are expressed, they need to be artistically processed in order to be more vivid, concrete, and attractive to readers. If you want to present a good story to the reader, you must continue to learn. ”
Eye-catching is very grateful for the emergence of online literature, "online literature can be said to have changed the reading habits of a generation. The previous four or five million words of paper books must have been a long masterpiece, and it could not be read in a year or two. Like Yao Xueyu's huge work "Li Zicheng", which took 42 years to write, I spent a whole year reading it. In the era of online literature, it is to follow the pace of the author's update every day, and the author has finished writing and the reader has finished reading. These are two completely different reading habits. ”
