I copied my daughter in the parallel world

Chapter 556 431. Holmes
After drinking the beer, the two of them didn't delay. The main purpose of Gu Cheng coming to the Sunday Club was to find some other things to divert his attention, so as not to put all his mind on the matter of the next book.

So at Shang Yan's suggestion, he would play the electronic organ. Gu Cheng directly picked up the microphone, found a few familiar tunes, and began to cultivate a tacit understanding between the two of them.

Although the effect of training with the whole band is not the same, but with Gu Cheng's superb singing skills and Shang Yan's excellent performance skills, the two of them performed like a whole band.

Even Li Nan on one side quietly put away his earphones at some point, and the TV on the screen was also quietly turned off. With a glass of beer in his hand, he watched with great interest the two people The center of the warehouse radiates its own radiance.

The practice of the two lasted until five or six o'clock in the afternoon. Gu Cheng saw that it was still late and the night had covered the entire sky, so he bid farewell and returned to his home with a satisfied expression.

After taking care of his daughter's affairs, Gu Cheng finally took the time to organize his thoughts and think about his next book.

Since the opponent made his fortune from mystery novels, if he wanted to compete with the opponent, the subject matter of his next book would still be the same as the previous two, and he would also choose to fall within the category of mystery novels.

And with the background of the previous two works, Gu Cheng believes that his novel should naturally have more appeal in terms of audience than other genres.

But the only problem now is that there are too many similar excellent mystery novels in my mind, which one should I choose as my weapon to compete with others?
In fact, when Gu Cheng was thinking about these questions, he also had some answers in his mind. He had been struggling back and forth between the devotion of suspect X and another book.

As for the book The Devotion of Suspect X, it aroused great repercussions once it was released in the previous life, and won the first place in the sales charts in Japan, Taiwan and South Korea.It even won the only top work in Japan's history that has won the annual championship of the three major mystery novel rankings.

You must know that mystery novels are almost the most popular genre of novels in Japan. Works that can stand out in this country must have good quality and techniques, and this novel won the Naoki Award, the highest literary award in Japan. And for the comments on this book, the Naoki Award selection agency commented that he wrote the deception to the extreme.

Originally, if there were no accidents, Gu Cheng would choose this work as his writing goal for his next book, but when a newcomer writer provoked him, this book became less appropriate in Gu Cheng's heart up.

Compared with this book, Gu Cheng wants to choose a classic work, to establish his position in the field of reasoning novels at once, which is the kind that even if he no longer writes in this category in the future, it can still make everyone who likes reasoning novels read. Readers of the novel, as long as this subject is mentioned, will always be the first to think of their own name.

You know, a good work can greatly enhance the reputation of the writer himself, and it can even reach the point of carnival for the whole people. However, since ancient times, there have not been many such works, so the matter of selecting materials has become Gu Cheng's biggest headache now. things.

Another work is more well-known, that is a milestone character that everyone who likes mystery novels can't avoid, a classic character created by Mr. Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes.

In the previous life, Sherlock Holmes has become synonymous with a famous detective, and in real life, many people even regard Sherlock Holmes as a synonym for a smart person.Sherlock Holmes has become a symbol of wisdom.

According to the "Guinness Book of World Records", Sherlock Holmes is one of the most frequently portrayed literary characters in the world.Only the vampire Dracula has more screen appearances than Sherlock Holmes.It can be seen from this that the popularity of Sherlock Holmes is unprecedented.According to incomplete statistics, since the 20th century, more than 75 different actors have played this role in more than 2 TV dramas or movies.

I believe that if this work is Sinicized through my own hands and feet, so that it can shine brightly in this world, it will definitely make my literary path smoother.

Speaking of the previous life, Gu Cheng was also extremely obsessed with this virtual detective character, and even read every case of the other party many times, and was shocked by the unique perspective and interlocking puzzle-solving techniques in it.

As for why this character can be so shocking, perhaps the answer can be found in the original text.

"If I can get rid of Moriarty as a scourge for society, then I am willing to end my career as a detective. I can say that I have not spent my life in vain. If my journey of life ends tonight, I can also have a clear conscience. The air of London is cleansed by my presence. In more than a thousand cases I have handled, I believe, I have never misused my power."

During the years when Sherlock Holmes was created, the whole society was in turmoil and was in an era of alternation between the old and the new. It is this complex social form that breeds all kinds of people with dark psychology.

Against this background, people have regarded Sherlock Holmes as a real person, even their own beliefs, and they are looking forward to the existence of such a person in their real life, who can always use their own original decryption techniques and superb detective skills. Solve puzzles one after another for people, and wipe out all the injustices, cruelty and evil murderers in the society.

However, if such a character is chosen to be Sinicized, for Gu Cheng, the degree of difficulty is much higher than before. If he wants to translate all the complete works into Sinicization, it will be an extremely huge project, and it may even cost him nearly a year. more than a year.

If he made such a choice, it would not be in line with the plan he had agreed with Houhan Publishing House.

After careful consideration for a long time, Gu Cheng finally made up his mind. Under such circumstances, if he cannot bring this classic character into this world and make all reasoning fans fall for him, it will be his greatest regret in his life. .

And if it is money, the gains this book can bring to oneself cannot be measured by money at all.

As for the length of the book, Gu Cheng felt that he could compile the book into three volumes, and divide it into three volumes to achieve the standard of maximizing benefits.
