Chapter 282 New Book? Detective Novel? !

"Lin Qiu has tortured me thousands of times, and I treat Lin Qiu like my first love."

"Bah! You are just greedy for his body!"

…

The huge Xiazhou audience was really stunned by Lin Qiu and the old thief!

The knives of the two people with completely different styles can both poke the tears of the audience and make them collapse and break their defenses!

Just when "Su Yuan" was being released in full swing, to the dismay of thousands of movie fans, Lin Qiu's fans and fans of Lao Zei were already accustomed to the style of these two people's works.

Excellent works can arouse the emotions of the audience, which is a common feature.

"Alive" and "The Story of Xu Sanguan Selling Blood" released by the old thief last year won a heavyweight award in Xiazhou Literature, the "Xiazhou Writers' Literature Award" just after the year.

This award is sponsored by the Xiazhou Writers Association and was established to encourage the creation of excellent novels and promote the prosperity of Xiazhou literature. It is one of the highest honor literary awards in Xiazhou!

By receiving this award, it can be said that the old thief’s literary attainments have received the most official recognition!

It's a pity that the author Lao Thief is as mysterious as ever. He neither accepted the invitation from the Xiazhou Writers Association nor showed up to receive such an award. This really makes Lao Thief's fans feel a little pity.

If they knew who the old thief was, they could send the blades!

…

"But this time the old thief has rested for such a long time, so it's time for a new book to come!"

"The promised one is May! It's also a mystery type!"

"But I heard that this year in Xiazhou and Yingzhou, there are many, many authors who want to publish mystery novels with the old thieves in May."

"Nonsense, how popular is the old thief now? Who doesn't want to use the old thief as a springboard? If you defeat the old thief, you will be taking off on the head of the best-selling author in Xiazhou."

"Hey, the old thief's mystery novels, to be honest, are not as exciting as his fantasy novels."

"Hmm... It seems that personal reasoning is not the strong point of the old thief. This time it should be a social reasoning like the previous "Long Night".

"Are you all so dismissive of the old thief? Just wait for the old thief to slap you in the face!"

"This is really shameful. As a big fan of Lao Thief, everyone is actually familiar with Lao Thief's style and level. Strictly logical inferences are indeed not the area where Lao Thief is good at."

"Before the release of "Alive" and "Xu Sanguan's Story of Selling Blood," who would have thought that the old thief could write works of this kind, and that he could write to the level of winning the 'Xiazhou Writers' Literary Award'?"

"makes sense……"

…

Before Lao Zei released a new book, the vast number of Lao Lai fans, including the entire literary circle, were full of expectations for this unknown new book.

To some extent, Lao Zei and Lin Qiu are similar. They both came from a popular work, "The Truman" and "Harry Potter".

Returning to a relatively niche, realistic theme work.

Lin Qiu's work plan has always been relatively clear, with works of different types and styles constantly interspersed.

After "Sowon", the theme of the movie "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" has become more popular.

Similarly, after "Alive" and "Xu Sanguan", the old thief also needs to continue the label of "Kyushu best-selling author" and come up with a work that is enough to push the old thief to the top of the Kyushu author president mountain!

And Lin Qiu's choice is the world-famous "Sherlock Holmes" in his previous life!

This work is a best-selling novel that has a place in the world's famous library. This is a height that "Harry Potter" cannot reach.

Wearing a large cloak, holding a pipe in his mouth, with a hawk-nosed nose and sharp eyes, he moves quickly. He rides a familiar carriage or train to the docks of London, or to the castles shrouded in fog at night in the British countryside.

Just a simple sentence, this image is enough to appear in the mind of any reader in the past life.

Even young readers who have not read the original work of Sherlock Holmes will definitely know this classic detective novel from all aspects.

It has been translated into dozens of languages ​​over the past 100 years and has become popular all over the world. It is the most highly regarded detective novel in history and its influence has long transcended the field of "reasoning".

Even if you ask the older generation who don’t read or read who Harry Potter is, they will definitely not know.

But if you ask them who Sherlock Holmes is, they will most likely have heard of it.

Moreover, this work is a classic work that has been verified over the years and remains in the long history. In the 21st century, "Sherlock", a wonderful Sherlock Holmes fan creation that keeps pace with the times, is still popular around the world.

It shows that his classics have stood the test of time even though it is more than a hundred years old. There are still many big movies about Sherlock Holmes appearing on the big screen in previous lives.

The image of "Sherlock Holmes" has become synonymous with "detective". Even Agatha Christie, who has a higher status in the detective world than Conan Doyle, has created images such as "Poirot" that are far inferior to Sherlock Holmes. audience.

It is no exaggeration to say that this book was called the "Bible" of mystery novels by many mystery fans in the previous life. It is a must-have desk book for every mystery fan. Conan Doyle is called "the father of detective novels".

Lin Qiu has read "Sherlock Holmes" and the author of Grandma, such as "Murder on the Orient Express", "Tragedy on the Nile", "Roger's Mystery" and other classic works. From a reader's point of view, Lin Qiu will feel that the "Sherlock Holmes" series of works It can attract you to read more.

Which is better, it's a matter of personal taste, purely subjective.

Lin Qiu was also very excited to bring out such a blockbuster series. He was eager to see what kind of storm the audience in this world would stir up for a classic detective novel like "Sherlock Holmes"!

"Another doubt..."

"It's a pity that the talent of 'Old Thief' comes from the whole world."

Previously, the preview of Old Thief's new book only announced the "mystery" type, and the specific new book preview has not been fully announced.

But it was such a preview that once again ushered in doubts from the entire novel world.

Yes!

Another doubt!

This time, even Old Thief's die-hard fans were somewhat hesitant.

...

When this news first came out, many of Old Thief's fans' first reaction was extremely excited!

"Mystery!"

"Old Thief is writing mystery again! My youth is back!"

"Mystery fans will be satisfied with this book!"

During the serialization of "The Long Night", Sun Xuan's son Sun Xiao, who had been following the mystery novels day and night.

Hearing this news, he was also quite excited.

"Dad! The old thief is going to write a mystery in his new book again!!"

That day, Sun Xiao held his mobile phone and excitedly said to his father Sun Xuan. Sun Xuan also highly praised "The Long Night" that year, and publicly promoted "The Long Night" on blogs and mystery forums.

Lin Qiu's first batch of physical book fans were the mystery fans accumulated at that time.

It can be said that this group of fans became the foundation when Lin Qiu entered the field of physical books. Many mystery fans did not exclude Lin Qiu's other types of works. After all, they were all novel fans.

But the favorite is still mystery, so you can imagine how excited he was to hear this news.

"Reasoning..."

Sun Xuan frowned.

Sun Xiao didn't understand his father's reaction, "What's wrong, Dad?"

"Isn't it a good thing?"

Putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Sun Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"According to common sense, it's not a good thing."

"But the old thief has never been an author who can be judged by common sense, so I dare not make a conclusion."

Sun Xiao looked at his father, hoping that his father would give a reasonable explanation.

Sun Xuan continued, "Let me ask you, what is the level of the physical books of Lao Zei, "To Live", "Xu Sanguan" and "Harry Potter"?"

When Sun Xiao, a die-hard fan of Lao Zei, heard this, his eyebrows flew with joy, and there was a hint of pride in his words:

"Of course it's high!"

"Harry Potter is a best-seller in Jiuzhou, it's too popular! "To Live" and "Xu Sanguan" are even more literary, no doubt!"

Sun Xuan nodded and gestured on his head, "Yes."

"Now Lao Zei's level is here."

Then Sun Xuan gestured on his chest again, "If Lao Zei prepared a new work for several months and produced a work of this level, do you think it would be disappointing?"

When Sun Xiao was thinking, Sun Xuan continued:

"According to the level of "The Long Night", it is definitely not good."

Although it is difficult to directly compare novels, if mystery fans are asked to choose between "The Long Night" and "Sherlock Holmes", 99% of mystery fans will definitely choose the former.

The "logic problem" in Lao Zei's novels has always been a "recognized weakness". From his first work "The Fairy Sword" to "Harry Potter", there are some problems with the logic of many plots, but readers have not studied them in detail.

The trilogy in "The Long Night" is also not a mystery work known for "reasoning", and the requirements for novel logic are not so high.

But now Lin Qiu has come up with another such work, which is obviously not enough.

You know, Lao Zei entered the physical book world with a "Harry Potter" and rushed up the position. Coupled with the shock of "To Live" and "Xu Sanguan", he has entered the ranks of Xiazhou's first-class authors.

After that, Sun Xuan smiled and added to his son:

"Of course, at least so far, Lao Zei has not disappointed readers."

"Remember to buy two copies of this novel when it comes out."

"Read it together."

...

This conversation between Sun Xuan and Sun Xiao directly reflects the expectations and doubts of thousands of novel fans about this novel.

According to common sense, it must be questioned, but Lao Zei even reversed the reputation of "Clannad" instantly, soaring from 2 points to 7 points. This result is simply too miraculous. If you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really hard to imagine.

The quality of Lao Zei's works that have officially entered the physical world of novels is so high that it makes readers' expectations of Lao Zei even more terrifying, especially Jiuzhou's book fans!

Of course, before this novel was released, Jiuzhou's book fans were naturally still looking forward to it, and there was no change.

But the change...

is the many suspense novelists in Xiazhou and the many suspense novelists in Yingzhou!

For a long time, the theme of suspense and reasoning has been considered unpopular in online literature, but in the field of physical books, it is not unpopular at all, and can even be considered a hot theme.

In the past one or two years, Lao Zei has become famous and exploded in Jiuzhou!

There is definitely envy and jealousy, but Lao Zei and them have nothing to do with each other, so naturally there is not much intersection, but when the news that Lao Zei's new book type is reasoning came out...

Some mystery writers who had previously promoted "The Long Night" pushed their unpublished and highly confident works to May, and launched a collision of works with Lao Zei!

For this kind of collision of works, no one would believe that these authors did not have the idea of ​​"becoming famous overnight".

In today's novel field, especially in Xiazhou and Yingzhou, there is no way to become famous faster and more eye-catching than stepping on Lao Zei's head!

If you win, you will be known by all the states!

If you lose, it's not shameful!

You are completely invincible.

There are also some Xiazhou mystery writers who are familiar with Lin Qiu. They firmly believe that Lin Qiu's mystery novel will definitely not meet the expectations of the public, so they are ready to seize this opportunity and strive for this wave of exposure!

Hanzhou also wants to participate, but Hanzhou's suspense mystery works...

Emmm...

It's hard to say.

At least it's much worse than Xiazhou and Yingzhou.

For a while, with the preview of Lao Zei's new book, the mystery and mystery novel circles in Xia and Ying states began to gradually boil, ushering in a carnival for mystery and mystery fans!

…

The box office of "Hope" has been rising steadily, and with the arrival of the May Day holiday, it has ushered in a small explosion!

Although the performance of the Jiuzhou film market is not as good as "The Truman Show", it is also predictable, but Lin Qiu's defense value is hundreds and thousands of times more than "The Truman Show"...

It is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that the whole Jiuzhou is crying for this movie!

Just as the May Day holiday arrived, the preview of Lao Zei's new book from Xianque Academy was finally released.

In the middle of the month, on May 16, Lao Zei's suspense and mystery series-"Sherlock Holmes I-A Study in Scarlet" was officially released!

It finally came out after much anticipation!

There are many people looking forward to it, many people watching, and many people questioning it.

But it will be officially released in Jiuzhou in a few days, and then...

All questions will have answers!

…
