Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds

Chapter 175: The prologue of a new era

At night, Rose Manor.

Shenjun’s black horse drove into the manor with a carriage. Count Henrietta got out of the carriage and dragged his tired body back to his study. He threw down his coat at random and collapsed on the sofa to relax. As soon as he closed his eyes, his consciousness fell into a drowsiness, and the phantom matter kept him busy for this period of time.

He held his chin in contemplation. In addition to "The Count of Monte Cristo", some people successively used photographic crystals to shoot phantoms and wanted to cooperate with the cinema. However, it is impossible for anyone to come up with any excellent works in such a short period of time. The photographers from here let Count Henrietta realize that the phantom career is not just about earning a vote.

"Perhaps we should also shift our focus to the phantom business. After all, fiction is a mature field, and I am not a novelist, and I can never stand at the pinnacle of this field. Phantom is completely different. It is a new industry that is sought after by people. It has huge market potential, just like the railway business that was only interested in decades ago. At that time, people thought that the railway business had no interest at all. Now even the royal family needs to set up a special railway department to manage transportation."

The old butler knocked on the door and came in and poured him a cup of black coffee, and put the sorted newspaper in front of him.

The strong bitterness stimulated the spirit of Count Henrietta. He picked up today’s newspaper and saw that Harvey’s new novel "Dark Age" was published in the newspaper at a glance. There will be several literary newspapers in the future. Evaluation.

The content of the novel has not been officially made public, and the evaluation content of these literary newspapers does not seem to be very polite.

"Mr. Harvey Adrian, the controversial Bauhinia award winner, is about to launch his new novel "Dark Age", which is reported to be a fantasy and epic theme. The famous literary critic Occam Clark believes that the selection of the novel is too frivolous. It does not have much literary nature, and some people think that this is Mr. Harvey Adrian's preparation for the next Phantom.-"Norton Today""

"Mr. Harvey Adrian's new novel two months later, or to quell the recent controversy over his recent bauhinia award.-"Little Canal Times"

"Mr. Renault Scott, the author of the poem "The Cold Branch of the Cliff", believes that Mr. Harvey Adrian is not a pure novelist. "The Earl of Monte Cristo" won the Bauhinia award because of the phantom. , Has no reference significance.-"Xingkong Wenkan""

"Voices of doubt! Count Henrietta, vice-president of the Literary Association, is accused of operating behind the scenes.-"Literature Times"

······

"What's the matter with these reports?" Count Henrietta frowned and read the newspapers one by one, his face gradually becoming pale, furious at these malicious speculations and irresponsible remarks. With so many newspapers and magazines publishing this incident at the same time, you can use your toes to know that someone must be planning behind the scenes, and the controversy caused by Harvey's recent bauhinia award is like adding fuel to the fire.

The criticism was directed at Harvey as well as Count Henrietta himself. The report accused him of being too utilitarian. Recently, he seldom took care of the affairs of the Literary Association. Instead, he was "not doing his job properly" to promote the emerging industry of Phantom. Because of the utilitarian attitude of the Literary Association, the Kingdom’s literary world is difficult to develop. The Bauhinia Award is awarded to novelists who have only one work.

The content is fictitious and real, dirty water, hats, etc., all at once, and the sharp rhetoric immediately put Count Henrietta in the literary world.

"Fr. Faria said that very well. If you want to know who harmed you, think about who is good for your murder." Count Henrietta sneered at the table and sneered. He did sin against many people. And there is only one person who has so much energy to direct the Norton publishing industry, Vonn Hall, the honorary president of the Literary Association, a representative of the traditional literary school.

"Speaking of it soon, this year's election of the president of the association, no wonder he is so anxious." Count Henrietta touched his chin and said to himself, his tone full of emotion.

The term of office of the president of the Literary Association is three years, and can be re-elected at most once. This year is when the re-election of the president of the Literary Association expires. Honorary President Vaughan Hall and himself are the most powerful candidates for the position of president.

If more than half a year ago, Count Henrietta might have dreamed and wanted to become the president of the literary association.

However, since hearing the applause that was enough to overturn the dome in the movie theater a month ago, Count Henrietta felt that some of his ideas had been completely reversed. He clearly remembered the beating sound of his heart and blood spurting under the warm applause at that time. Feeling Pembey, as if his whole head was immersed in hot water, Count Henrietta felt for the first time at that time that there was something really worth pursuing.

Focusing on the phantom business result did not even notice the presidential election, and gave Vaughan Hall a chance to launch the first round of offense.

"I didn't intend to compete for this position. Hall, if you want to play, I will play with you." Count Henrietta sneered. He didn't care about criticizing his report, but the evaluation of Harvey made him difficult. Accepted, before cooperating with Harvey, he thought he was a reader who was touched by the "Count of Monte Cristo" and truly experienced the feeling of being empowered by a novel to change the concept of life.

Now these literary publications criticize Harvey and question the "Count of Monte Cristo" to overturn all of this, neither as Harvey's collaborators nor readers can accept it.

These malicious comments are all aimed at inciting Harvey’s bauhinia award. Although not all, they must be able to motivate some novelists who are dissatisfied with Harvey’s award. These novelists have the votes for the president of the Literary Association. The method of the problem is very simple, just slap the face with strength, as long as the work is good enough, all the rumors will be self-defeating.

Count Henrietta had this confidence.

He ordered the old butler to bring the refreshing potion and the original manuscript and outline of the novel "Dark Age". He had read "Dark Age" and the novel outline all night a few days ago, and his evaluation of "Dark Age" became his confidence. origin of.

Count Henrietta studied the novel carefully until dawn came and wrote a special report on "Norton Night" with a pen: "The real obstacle to the development of literature is ridiculous [literature]."

After confirming the title of the report, Count Henrietta smiled excitedly. He is a representative of the literary innovationist. He has long been unable to understand the stubborn traditional ideas of the Literary Association. It is time to overthrow these traditional theories and open up a new era of literature. At that time, both "Count of Monte Cristo" and "Dark Age" can be the most powerful representatives of shredding these ridiculous theories.

It can be a woman who writes a novel.

The fierce words overturned all the reports of literary publications, and they were really slapped in the face of those who are leading writers. If this report is published, Earl Henrietta himself will definitely become a target of Norton's literary world. He doesn't care, he still has a way out.

Moreover, these words were his personal experience over the years. Harvey's appearance confirmed his philosophy. If he was unsuccessful, he would declare the end of his career in the literary world.
