Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds

　　 The essay advertisement published in the newspaper!

To say that the level of civilization in this world is actually not low, although it is not as good as the modern era of the information explosion, it is also in an explosive state. Those fairy tales that scare children and the heroic epics sung by wandering poets cannot meet the needs of people, especially among the nobles. In the field, having read the works of well-known novelists or poets of such and such can be a capital of ostentation, representing the educational difference between them and the ignorant masses.

　　 Harvey doesn't understand poetry, novels are his area of ​​expertise!

When he was still on the earth, he was a fan of online novels. It is no exaggeration to say that the number of words in the novel he read is more than the number of words in the collection of a library in this world, and he has also studied the field of online novels and planned to write one that belongs to Of course, my work is not very satisfactory. His novels don't have the slightest advantage in the modern era of the information explosion, but there are not so many demanding requirements in this world that is still in the transition of civilization and barbarism.

　　 The world’s literary field is undergoing an explosive development period. Ordinary civilians have also begun to come into contact with literary works because of the popularization of books. The society’s thirst for culture is like a bottomless sinkhole.

Online novels do not have an advantage in the face of traditional literature. Coupled with the cultural differences between the two worlds, Harvey’s experience in creating online novels does not help Harvey at all. Harvey’s huge advantage in the field of novels is to broaden his horizons, and secondly, even if he cannot refer to the Internet His experience in novel creation and Western classical literature can also inspire him.

The three Bronte sisters' works "Jane Eyre" and "Wuthering Heights", which once made a sensation in the literary world of London, the foggy capital of England, are one of the most famous popular novels in the world, "The Earl of Monte Cristo", the scientific novel "Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea", and even It can be used in the Grimm's fairy tale series full of fairy tales.

Haven't you ever seen a pig run if you haven’t eaten pork? Harvey has indeed never dabbled in traditional literature, but these works are not only presented in words, but also in more specific and more appealing film expressions. Ha Before Weiwei crossed, he liked the English period dramas full of Victorian style, and the slightly famous English period dramas were basically adaptations of famous classical novels.

"If you are selected in this essay advertisement, you will be awarded the [Leonard Award] issued by Leonard Press for the most talented work, including a pure gold medal and 5000 barrons! It’s been a month. It’s been evaluated by the publishing house staff and all readers who watched the collection. It seems to be tailor-made to solve his current situation!" Harvey’s eyes are shining to lock in the prize money for the essay advertisement. It is difficult for him to spend a month. Time to collect 30 Barron gold coins, the essay activity held by Leonard Press is a good choice. After being selected, the bonus is enough to pay off his debts at one time. On the other hand, as an author, he also enjoys royalties from the novel. The fame of being selected for the novel will surely increase greatly, and the royalties will allow him to worry about food and clothing for several years.

　　The question is, is he capable of picking this attractive fruit in front of him?

　　 Harvey's eyes fell to the deadline for the essay displayed under the ad, and he frowned: "The essay advertisement has been published for a while, and the deadline is within this week, which means there are five days left. It must be prepared as soon as possible."

When he made up his mind, another mysterious message appeared in his mind. There was no text to explain but Harvey could understand the meaning of the message. The mysterious attribute panel in his head was not for him abilities for nothing, it was more like a mission system, only Harvey pays a price to complete something to get rewards, and the rewards are as good or bad as the impact he has caused.

　　If he becomes a world-famous novelist, then the mysterious system in his head can even make him one of the top spellcasters in the world at once!

Harvey is even more excited. This is a great thing for him. He is very interested in magic, but the threshold and mystery of magic make it impossible for him to get started. Now he can't touch this domain. If he can get the mysterious system in his head It’s much easier to use this as a springboard to become a formal caster than to use conventional means to become a caster.

Time is running out, Harvey dare not delay for a moment, and tells Shirley to prepare a sandwich for him and put on his coat and leave the mansion. He lives in a prosperous area, the roads are spacious and unobstructed, and the streets are neatly paved. Floor tiles come and go are basically well-dressed gentlemen and ladies. Being able to live in such a place is itself a status symbol.

　　 stopped a carriage and ordered the coachman to go to the library not far from this street.

After getting off the bus, pay the coachman 2 Barrons pounds. In front of him is a Victorian-style complex building. Victorian style is a very general term. It actually contains no less than ten architectural styles, each of which has distinctive features. Characteristic, this building combines plural styles to interpret the beauty of Western-style classical architecture, and its grade is obviously much higher than that of the surrounding buildings.

　　 Harvey pushed the door in. As soon as he arrived at the counter, a well-dressed woman asked respectfully: "Sir, how can I help you?"

　　 Harvey was a little surprised. According to his understanding, there are not so many jobs available for women in this world.

The Elroy Library is also the name of the city. The interior of the library is spacious and bright. There are two floors. The shelves filled with books are neatly arranged. One can't help but wonder if one of the columns will be overthrown. It will cause a domino effect. . In addition to the bookshelves, tables and chairs are placed for borrowers to read. There are also carefully taken care of flower pots in the corners. The quiet and comfortable environment is no less than that of modern libraries on earth.

The Elroy Library is donated by the Elroy family. Most of the books are in the collections of the Elroy family or common books bought from various places. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is generally only available to people with identities. People and students from some schools in this city watched and read. It is impossible for ordinary civilians to come here if they are not introduced by someone with status and status.

　　 Harvey was thankful that he still had the identity of a nobleman. He took off his hat and put it on his chest and said in a warm voice: "Yes, ma'am, I want to apply for a loan certificate here. May I ask what procedures are needed."

　　 "Okay, please leave your identity information here."

After completing the form and paying a gold barron coin, after the library staff confirmed his identity, Harvey obtained the library’s loan certificate, which is a small document-like book with instructions and borrowing records. .

Time does not allow him to hesitate. When he came here in a carriage, Harvey thought about which novel to write. The works of the three Bronte sisters were not suitable for him. The cultural style of "Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea" was quite different from the world’s cultural style. A certain risk, thinking about it, Harvey decided to write a popular novel in the budding stage of this world-"The Count of Monte Cristo".

　　 There are considerable cultural differences between the two worlds. For example, the protagonist in "Count of Monte Cristo" was framed because of Napoleon's letters. Napoleon does not exist in this world, and he needs to find an existence with a similar status in the history of this world. It's not that he is nitpicking. The world's culture is not yet very developed. Without actual history as the writing background, the attractiveness and value of the novel will be greatly reduced.

　　 And he still needs to take a good look at the "translation" of novels. What he speaks now is neither English nor Chinese. It is a language that has not been touched at all. The translation work is not done well, and no matter how good a novel is, it is a pearl of dust.

　　 Harvey stood in front of the huge bookshelf and sighed with intricate thoughts. There are still five days before the deadline for the essay submission. The creation needs are eliminated, leaving him running out of time to consult materials.
