Chapter 604 The Original Novel of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Is Released!

"The Three Kingdoms is over. The first half is exciting, but the second half is depressing. I thought that the future would be the three families of Cao, Liu, and Sun fighting for hegemony, but it ended like this. See how the descendants of Cao, Liu, and Sun It is really depressing to lose Jiang Shang, unable to hold on to the foundation, and watch it be destroyed. When Cao Cao held the emperor hostage to command the princes, and was powerful in all directions, how could he have thought that his descendants would also be held hostage by the Sima family, and even killed by the Sima family? Regicide, this is not a kind of retribution..."

"I like the 'righteousness' in it so much. Even though many ancient emotions may seem pedantic from a modern perspective, that is what is truly attractive."

"I found that audiences of all ages have similar evaluations of Zhuge Liang and similar evaluations of Cao Cao, but their evaluations and perceptions of Liu Bei are completely different. Liu Bei is a kind and sincere person with an indescribable sense of belief. And idealistic people, young people often think Liu Bei is indecisive, but older audiences see it completely differently. "

"When the last title song played, I felt like my body was left, and my soul was gone with the wind and sand of history. Only now can I calm down and write this review. In fact, from the first scene, the setting sun Zhang Jiao swore an oath with his blood, and it was a fiery red, ushering in the prelude to the troubled times, and I was immersed in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"..."

"The influential figures of the Three Kingdoms period have been away from us for thousands of years. We are grateful to the masterpiece "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for freezing history in words and preserving it as a huge, magnificent and vivid picture for future generations to see."

…

On the Movie software, the evaluation of 9.9 points is full of emotions from the audience at all levels.

It is true that the work "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is worthy of discussion and there are too many points to comprehend, so many that almost every comment is different, and every audience has their own understanding.

But the biggest emotion is still the ending of history.

The reason why many viewers feel desolate and lost is because no one seems to win in Wei, Shu, and Wu. It seems that all the efforts of the characters, all the bloody battles and battles are meaningless, whether it is the war in the south or the north, or the troops rushing around. , or the heroic figures who slaughtered everyone on the battlefield with unrivaled wit and scheming, eventually became the dust of this history.

The most brilliant and popular character in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". In the midst of strategizing, he defeated Zhuge Liang who was thousands of miles away. He burned Bowang and burned the new fields. He fought with Confucian scholars and inspired Zhou Yu with his wisdom. He borrowed arrows from a straw boat and borrowed the east wind. Three The wonderful events of Qi Zhouyu, Baidicheng Tuogu, Anju Pingwulu, seven captures of Meng Huo, six escapes from Qishan, and the empty city plan have become eternal memories in the minds of the audience.

Once "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was completed, many official media were vigorously promoting it.

But the old thief's account did not repost the broadcast results similar to those of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", or how many positive comments from viewers, but reposted a video.

This video is from Liu Guokai, a history professor at Yenching University. He talks about the characters and events in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which are different from the official history.

But as soon as this blog was posted, many fans of the old thief widened their eyes in shock.

"Isn't this old thief too generous?"

"The old thief is not afraid of being scolded at all. He has been scolded since the first book and has been immune to it for a long time."

"When those history professors posted their blogs before, I fought with them, but now I feel embarrassed..."

"That doesn't count as scolding..."

…

Not only this history professor, but also many history bloggers and history enthusiasts have expressed their dissatisfaction with "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" through various channels, and their dissatisfaction with the old thieves who fabricated history and fabricated plots.

This is understandable. Most scholars who work in the field of history have a reverence and rigor for history. In fact, in previous lives, there were also people who were disgusted with the famous book "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" for this reason.

The reason why Lin Qiu forwarded this video was naturally because he thought it was meaningful.

After all, many of the characters in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" have been fabricated and artistically processed, and the images in it are different from those in official history.

Even in the previous life, when people in China mentioned Liu Chan and Adou, they were the images in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

There is also Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu in the history books is not a narrow-minded person, and the victory in the battle of Chibi was completely dependent on his strategy. As for Kong Ming borrowing the east wind, it is not historical fact, and the real cause of Zhou Yu's death was not that he died of anger.

However, it can even be said that most people compare the historical characters such as Adou and Zhou Yu to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is undoubtedly unfair to the real historical figures.

Because of a novel, it was "infamous for thousands of years" and was reviled by thousands of people.

That's why Lin Qiu, after the drama version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was broadcast, worked with these historians to let the audience, especially the children who have no ability to distinguish, realize that the romance is just a romance, and history is history.

…

"Obviously, Zhuge Liang in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was overly deified by the author. Most of the records about Zhuge Liang come from "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Zhuge Liang". Zhuge Liang is indeed talented, but he is not as unpredictable as in the Romance. "Zhuge Liang in the novel is good at driving the wind and rain, praying to the stars for fate, and controlling the natural climate. It is obviously unrealistic, and it is also an image added by the author for artistic effect."

"Compared with Zhuge Liang in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the position of Zhuge Liang in the official history is similar to Cao Cao, the pillar of a country. The difference is only that one is loyal and the other is a traitor. But in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he has become a key figure in determining the course of history. , This is also the need for the depiction of the work.”

"In terms of events, it is a historical fact that he left Qishan six times and captured Meng Huo seven times, but it is not as soul-stirring as in the novel. The history books only use "seven captures of him, and the southerners will no longer turn back" to record the rest. It is the author’s imagination, and when the fire burned in Xinye and the fire burned in Bowang, Zhuge Liang had not yet come out of the mountain..."

…

The video's comparative interpretation of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" TV series and official history is quite clear, but this alone is not enough.

It can be said that in Xiazhou, because of the emergence of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the atmosphere for learning history is getting stronger and stronger. Or maybe the attraction of history itself to the people of Xiazhou has always been high, otherwise the costume drama would not be so popular and lasting.

It can be seen from primary and secondary schools that students' interest in history has increased significantly.

But the so-called "three sworn brothers in Taoyuan", "warm wine and kill Hua Xiong", "Zhuge Liang scolded Wang Lang to death", "burning Shangfang Valley", "passing five passes and beheading six generals, beheading the good and punishing the ugly" are all fictitious in the novel. This kind of education on historical facts needs to go deep into the campus.

Of course, these are things for later. For Lin Qiu’s status as an old thief, everything that needs to be done has been done.

But for thousands of viewers in Xiazhou and fans of the Three Kingdoms in Kyushu, the first half of this summer is really wonderful!

I have been watching the drama continuously for nearly a month. I have a lot of content every day and it is also exciting and full of content. From a drama viewing experience, there is absolutely nothing better than this. Which of the popular dramas in the world can be watched in one day? Three episodes, 50 minutes each?

Strike while the iron is hot, just when the popularity of the completion of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is at its peak around the world, the original novel "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is officially released simultaneously in Kyushu!

The popularity of Lao Zei's books is unparalleled. Coupled with the popularity of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", major bookstores in Kyushu were crowded with people and there were long queues for taking pictures!

Moreover, compared with the previous novels, the audience is wider than that of all Xiazhou parents, even those who attach great importance to their children's grades, will not prevent their children from liking "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and reading "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" books, because This is good for children’s growth and learning!

Not to mention anything else, there are more than one or two allusions to the plot in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that can be used in compositions.

It can be said that readers all over the world have huge expectations, looking forward to finding the difference between the original work of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and the drama version and the purest taste.

But when these readers, especially those from all over Kyushu, excitedly bought the books, rushed home, opened them and started reading, they were dumbfounded.

…

"I'll go! Classical Chinese?"

"It's not purely classical Chinese. As far as I know, this is the language style of Xiazhou during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, half classical Chinese and half vernacular!"

"Woooooooooo! I can't understand! Xiazhou's language is profound and profound!"

"I didn't expect that the TV series version would still present it in vernacular form!"

"I originally bought it for my son to read, but my son couldn't understand it at all..."

"It's not that you can't understand it, but you have to look very carefully."

"I really like this style of writing!"

“It’s so exciting to watch!”

The writing style of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is not difficult for Xiazhou readers to understand, but it requires careful reading.

But for readers from other states who are only familiar with Xiazhou Mandarin, reading is a bit difficult.

But for readers of the Three Kingdoms who can read clearly, the reading experience can only be described in one word - exciting!

This is definitely Lao Zei's most interesting novel, especially the end of each chapter, such as the end of the first chapter.

[Snobbishness of human nature persists in ancient times, but who knows that a hero is a white person? An Dekuai is as good as Wing De, and he will punish all the unfaithful people in the world! 】

[After all, what happened to Dong Zhuo’s life will be explained below. 】

At the end of the second chapter, "If you want to eliminate the chaos among the people on your side, you must listen to the advice of the wise men in the court. I don't know what Cao Cao said, but I will explain it below." 】

These prison-like writing methods make readers feel as if they are in a large-scale storytelling scene, which is about the Three Kingdoms era when heroes coexisted!

"I tell the truth..."

"I have only read it three times. I have read so many works by the old thief, and this is the only book that amazes me even when I read the text..."

Not long after it was released, comments and texts like this appeared in many people’s Moments or social media!

Regarding such comments, Lin Qiu, who was filming in Xizhou, couldn't help but smile knowingly.

joke……

These are the four great masterpieces from the past life! !

In the previous life, the four famous works had very different contents, and each had its own style and writing style.

Among them, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is the one that values ​​pen and ink the most, lacks craftsmanship, is ancient and simple, is rough and heroic, and is as powerful and lively as freehand brushwork.

Different from the exquisiteness and beauty of "Red Mansions", "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" pursues excessive details and pictograms according to the situation.

Its simple and concise yet wide-open words allow readers to feel the power of the battlefield just when reading!

In fact, when I think back to the old thief's books before, there are few works that are so amazing in terms of writing style. For example, "Sherlock Holmes" and "Harry Potter" were the first big hits, and later "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Martian" were not written in the same way. What stands out is its superb plot and unconstrained ideas.

But after announcing the transformation of the writing style into a traditional one, the old thief's first Xiazhou local style work brought such an explosive work, which really surprised thousands of readers and directly detonated Xiazhou. network!

Maybe the people in Jiuzhou don't know how valuable the words in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are, but the scholars and authors in Xiazhou know it very well. Even ordinary readers can feel the extraordinaryness of the book and how it compares with the old people. None of Thief’s previous works are on the same level!

"I'll go! I feel like we said before that "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" must be a classic, and I feel like we underestimated it..."

"I have a vague feeling that this book is a masterpiece that can be passed down by the times and will continue to be circulated as long as Xiazhou civilization is immortal..."

"+1!"

"The writing is not very profound, the language is not very vulgar, it is bright and popular, and the writing skills are too deep."

"The old thief is still making progress! I really am..."

"There are still many differences between the original novel and the TV series version, not only the plot, but also the way of thinking and the way of telling. In the TV series version, as a director, Lin Qiu's way of thinking will definitely be included, and the original work will be lost. The benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise see wisdom.”

"Yes, the novel itself has room for readers' imagination. After being adapted into a TV series, it is created under the editor's logic and understanding. It may conflict with the readers' own creation when reading, and they lose their imagination."

"I prefer the original novel! I'm sorry, Lin Qiu!"

"+1! Lin Qiu is a genius, but the old thief is a god!"

I don’t blame the readers for boasting, it’s really shocking, especially for readers who have been reading the old thief’s works and are die-hard fans.

Who can put together the old thief who wrote "Zhu Xian" and "Immortal Sword" with the old thief who wrote "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?

When talking about the sales volume of this novel, the popularity is too cliché. As soon as this book was published, its literary value was widely recognized in a short period of time!

"This is a masterpiece that contains rich wisdom and strategy. It has immeasurable and significant reference value for people from all walks of life and all walks of life in their conduct, life, and planning work."

"Whether it is social influence or literary value, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can be said to be the best novel in Xiazhou, and it is worthy of being a totemic work of Xiazhou!"

"A classic work of historical romance novels! In the broad social and historical background, it shows the sharp, complex and distinctive political and military conflicts of that era. In terms of political and military strategies, it will probably have a profound impact on future generations."

"The writing level is so high that it's staggering! The image of the task is so superb that it's ready to come out! It has a certain historical value, and the important thing is not to simply repeat history like a history textbook, but to create literature and popularize it. The acceptance is better.”

"The personal thoughts of the old thief reflected in "Three Kingdoms" are the first sentence, they must be united for a long time and must be divided for a long time. In the turmoil, they will eventually move towards governance. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" exactly describes how to move from chaos to governance. , This is also in line with the simple wishes of the people.”

"The old thief really became an artist!"
