Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is too famous, and it immediately established his status as a martial arts master. Not only that, but also let many writers refer to this martial arts work and write their own martial arts masterpieces, but there are also some martial arts masters who directly change the name of a large number of elements in Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and turn them into their own works, which is a bit speechless.

In the world of martial arts novels, Jin Yong is a well-deserved first master, who created early and became famous early, so he became the object of emulation by later martial arts writers. Among them, because the design of the "Five Uniques of Heaven and Earth" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is like Gu Long's "Sword Poison Meixiang" in "Guanzhong Ba Jiuhao, Heluo's only sword, Hai Neizun Seven Miao, and there are three immortals outside the world", as well as the "Martial Arts Weapon Spectrum" in "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword" are also inspired by Jin Yong.

There is also Wen Rui'an, who is also a martial arts master, in his early years, he revised the "Blood River Car" by Taiwanese martial arts master Bai Hong, in which the "Three Positives and Four Wonders" created also fully refer to Jin Yong's "Heaven and Earth Five Uniques" elements.

Of course, Taiwan's Gao Yong opened a rented bookstore back then, because he accidentally read Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so he was itchy for a while, so he also picked up the pen and wrote "Touching the Sky", "Tianlong Scroll", "Chivalrous Travel" and "Paper Knife" and other martial arts masterpieces.

Like Gu Long, Wen Ruian, and Gao Yong, these three writers, they all borrowed from Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", although some traces of learning are heavier, but most of them have been deeply processed and filled with some take-or-leave-it-ism into their own original stories, which is very different from the direct copy in Chen Qingyun's "The Ugly Swordsman".

Chen Qingyun is known as the first person of Taiwan's ghost school of martial arts, and his works like to describe the eerie, terrifying, bloody, and vendetta stories of the rivers and lakes, because of the bright rhythm and decisive characteristics, he has always been loved by many martial arts fans, such as his "Stump Order", "Poisonous Hand Buddha Heart", "Sword Collection", "Wudang Fighting for Heroes" and other works, have always been the memory of martial arts novel readers.

It's just that Chen Qingyun was forced by life to rent a guest room with the only money in his family, and completed his first martial arts novel "Iron Flute Shock Martial Arts" within a month, thus officially stepping into the ranks of martial arts novel creation. Because he had to support his family, Chen Qingyun has been working hard and insisting on writing, which has changed his living conditions.

But Chen Qingyun was seen by many readers because of the book "The Ugly Swordsman", and he plagiarized a lot of the content of Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", like the "One Yuan Treasure Seal" in the book is actually a copy of the "Nine Yin True Scripture", "Wan Fengzhen" is actually a copy of "Huang Rong", and "Wan Lao Evil, the owner of Baishi Island" is actually a copy of "Huang Yaoshi, the owner of Peach Blossom Island";

and in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", a series of contents such as "Huang Rong disguised herself as a beggar in male costume, Huang Yaoshi broke the tendons of her disciples, Guo Jing and Huang Rong fishing, woodcuttering, farming, reading and finding a lamp to cure diseases, and Huang Rong rectified the beggar gang" and a series of contents were almost copied by Chen Qingyun in "The Ugly Swordsman".

In other words, when Chen Qingyun created "The Ugly Swordsman", he was basically copying Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but changing the name of the volume to Chen Qingyun, and then changing Jin Yong's creativity to a vest. Chen Qingyun's move confirms the saying "a big copy of the world's articles".

Chen Qingyun blatantly plagiarized Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and also serialized his "Ugly Swordsman" in the newspaper, it is impossible for Jin Yong not to know about this matter. But Jin Yong was not as serious as he later sued Jiangnan for "The Boy Here". He is quite tolerant of Chen Qingyun and "The Ugly Swordsman".

Maybe Jin Yong also felt that Chen Qingyun was not easy at that time, his family was in the middle of the road, he didn't have three meals, and he only wrote martial arts to make a living, it was really difficult, so there was no need to kill them all.

There is another reason, that is, although Hong Kong and Taiwan were close to each other at that time, there were still many restrictions on the exchange of martial arts, so Jin Yong did not see Chen Qingyun's "The Ugly Swordsman" copying "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". There was no right to defend it.

Of course, at that time, martial arts novels did not have copyright protection regulations like now, and it was common for writers to copy back and forth. Many writers such as Wolongsheng and Zhuge Qingyun found inspiration from "The Legend of Shushan Swordsmen", and of course Jin Yong and Liang Yusheng are the same. Therefore, copying other people's works at that time was not a shame at all, but a conventional thing.

Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and Chen Qingyun's "The Ugly Swordsman" could only be regarded as products of an era at that time, but because Jin Yong was good at management, he not only gained fame and fortune, but also became the first master of martial arts novels. And Chen Qingyun has not been able to make a greater breakthrough in the style of his martial arts works because he has not been heavy on weight, so he has not had a higher status in the martial arts world.
