    "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" immediately won rave reviews as soon as it premiered. The exquisite costumes and props, superb actor performances, and exciting storyline have all become points of praise from the audience.

    The previous prediction that "advance spoilers of the novel may affect the ratings" has also received a favorable response. Not only did the audience not abandon the drama because they knew the plot in advance, on the contrary, they were fascinated by the wonderful scenes and plots in the novel.  Expressed strong expectations.

    CCTV also topped the crowd with a rating of 45 points that night, winning the ratings championship in the same period.

    The much-hyped "War of the Three Kingdoms" has now come to an end.

    "Liu Jingting in movies and novels has no rivals."

    After "Three Kingdoms" was praised by blockbusters, some people couldn't help but sigh again for Liu Jingting's all-powerful Midas touch.

    At the same time, news about the West Lake Novelists Summit also began to spread on the Internet.

    "At the West Lake in Mid-Autumn, a group of heroes discuss swords. Hundreds of famous masters meet you!"

    "A major Chinese cultural event, Liu Jingting leads the West Lake Sword Discussion!"

    "The West Lake Novelists Summit, jointly organized by West Lake City and Tage.com, will be grandly opened on September 9. It is reported that the summit has invited nearly a hundred well-known novelists across the country, spanning four generations of old, middle, young and young. Chairman of the Writers Association Feng Changhang  and Liu Jingting are confirmed to attend the meeting.¡±

    ¡­¡­

    The first wave of publicity for West Lake Swordsmanship was quite satisfactory. It roughly announced the time, place and characters, but did not go into details about the specific process.

    Both Liu Jingting and Xu Qing received invitation letters, but Xu Qing felt that she was invited because of Liu Jingting's glory, so she began to resist firmly.  Until she learned that her father Xu Yuanhuai was also invited, she suddenly changed her mind.

    "Although your grandpa has never spoken to me explicitly, every time he mentioned that he was not doing his job properly and that the boss was playful, he would look at me subconsciously. I want to say, you might as well just scold me and don't kill people with your eyes."

    Xu Qing held the invitation letter with her right hand and slapped her left hand while complaining to Yang Lilu.

    "Auntie, you are publishing books and writing scripts, why are you not doing your job?" Yang Lilu asked with a smile.

    Liu Jingting continued: "In the eyes of old people, not getting married when it's time to get married is not doing your job properly. With your grandparents' understanding"

    "Who are your grandparents?" Yang Lilu stared at Liu Jingting.

    "Our grandparents, our grandparents"

    Xu Qing glanced at Liu Jingting, then looked at Yang Lilu.  Said: "He has a point."

    "Well, auntie, why don't you get married? There are so many people chasing you now anyway."

    Xu Qing frowned and said: "Getting married is not like going to the market to buy groceries. You can get married no matter what, and they are right. I am just playful. I like my current life very much and can even be said to be obsessed with it. I have enough money to spend.  , I have a big house to live in, and I have a bunch of young friends to chat and play with. I don¡¯t have to be burdened by complicated interpersonal relationships, and I don¡¯t have to think about responsibilities and obligations. Frankly speaking, my scalp goes numb when I hear these two things.¡±

    Liu Jingting said: "A person will become addicted if he gets used to living, but there should be times when he is lonely and cold. For example, a cold winter night"

    Xu Qing stared at Liu Jingting with a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate rocks, and said in a joking tone: "You mean sex life, right?"

    "Huh?" Liu Jingting was speechless.

    "Auntie." Yang Lilu's face turned red.

    Xu Qing said: "You two have grown up now. It's not too much to talk about this topic with you."

    Liu Jingting coughed in embarrassment, secretly regretting that he should not have forgotten Xu Qing's sharp side. When they first met, he gave himself a blow with the question "Are you still a virgin?"

    "It's not that I haven't thought about it," Xu Qing continued: "It's best to develop a stable partner without involving some complicated issues and without worries. Thinking about it this way, a married mature man is the best, but my personal self-esteem  The moral requirements are that you cannot play the role of a mistress.¡±

    "And this is very worrying." Liu Jingting subconsciously answered.

    Xu Qing mocked slightly: "Most of the time it's something you bring upon yourself, and this is also the price of trying to evade responsibilities and obligations. Having said that, I only understand the mentality of doing this, but I can't do it myself."

    ¡°It¡¯s okay to have a normal relationship without getting married or having children.¡±

    Xu Qing shook her head with a smile and said: "How long can this kind of relationship last? If two people stay together for a long time, many things will happen uncontrollably. Then checking cell phones, stalking, questioning, and quarrels will inevitably follow.  , for me, that kind of life is ruined.¡±

    Liu Jingting suddenly thought of his first love boyfriend whom he and Xu Qing met, and thought of a question.??, hesitated for a moment, then finally gave up and smiled noncommittally.

    Xu Qing's tone suddenly changed and she warned Liu Jingting: "This is what I'm telling you, if you dare to be disrespectful to Lulu, I will make you look good."

    "Aunt Qing, you don't have this chance."

    Yang Lilu, who had always lowered her head and remained silent, glanced at Liu Jingting. Liu Jingting made an OK gesture, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

    The second wave of publicity for West Lake Swordsmanship has arrived as scheduled, but this time it is not through official release, but through breaking news.

    The whistleblower claimed that in addition to essays, this West Lake sword discussion will also include an on-site essay contest, imitating the grand occasion of ancient literati and poets gathering together to compete in essays and poems.

    "Imagine a group of top novelists sitting together to write a PK, how spectacular the scene would be?"

    However, this news was quickly denied by the official.

    ¡°The summit is all about free and open discussion by the writers present, and there is absolutely no set stage for argumentative writing.¡±

    Although both Tage and West Lake Lunjian¡¯s official Weibo denied the news, old netizens like Chang Youdao still saw a different meaning.

    "This news broke so suddenly, and their response was so **, no matter how you look at it, they all sang along."

    "Since West Lake City has chosen to cooperate with Tage.com, it is because they have spotted the huge potential of their online publicity. Since this cultural festival has the care of the central leadership, it is not just a one-time event. It is estimated that it will become a major feature of West Lake City.  It¡¯s a big feature, so this first issue will naturally feature a lot of features,¡± Wang Jianshan said.

    "It is necessary to produce both substantive content and topicality. Then a live essay competition with hundreds of top writers writing in unison would be the most interesting thing, right?" Su Jin said.

    "Nowadays, the literary world is full of cliques, but Liu Jingting single-handedly dominates the world. It is estimated that many people have been offended unintentionally, and it is foreseeable that the forum will be stumbled this time." Xu Qing replied.

    "It's a big deal." Yang Lilu said dissatisfied.

    "The reason why they released the news about Biwen is to prevent everyone from quitting, because if you don't say it at this time, everyone will say that you are timid." Chang Youdao analyzed.

    ¡°So it kills two birds with one stone. It not only inoculates everyone, but also digs a pit that everyone has to jump into.¡± Su Jin said.

    "It's just a competition, are you afraid of them?" Qingjiao said.

    "I'm afraid, but I'm not afraid. The problem is that Liu Jingting is both a Nobel Prize winner in literature and the best-selling record holder of world novels. When the time comes, traditional writers will have to come over to learn from each other. Best-selling writers will also come over to learn from each other, which will be a bit troublesome."  Kang Lingyue said.

    "Yes." Liu Jingting, who had been watching everyone's analysis, replied.

    Even Liu Jingting said this, making everyone even more worried.

    ¡°Let¡¯s take a look at their follow-up publicity.¡±

    At the same time that the editor group of "Jianglu" was chatting about the West Lake Swordsmanship, there were no less than 150 WC writer groups across the country talking about this summit.

    "No matter what, I must discuss it with Liu Jingting in person this time. He usually disdains to participate in conferences and small meetings, and has never had the opportunity. Xihu must make good use of it this time and personally verify the quality of this young genius writer."

    "Of course I have to challenge Gu Yongsheng. Anyway, this kind of thing is beneficial and harmless. Losing is normal. Getting the upper hand by luck is a big topic."

    "If we can't beat him alone, we will form a team. Anyway, we are fighting Liu Jingting, and he is also two people. There is no shame."

    As a result of this discussion, writers from all over the country wrote a joint letter to the West Lake City Working Group, suggesting that a "writing session" be held at the summit. It does not need to be emphasized that it is a "competition", where writers can express themselves freely and paint a few strokes when inspiration comes.  , if a good work appears, it will also be good for publicity.

    The members of the organizing committee who received this joint letter were overjoyed, because this process was originally part of their plan. According to their arrangements, twenty computers and three giant electronic screens will be installed at the summit site. Writer  After our discussion, if you are interested, you can leave a message on the spot.

    Now this arrangement coincides with the letters of advice from the writers, which provides great convenience for the subsequent publicity.

    ¡­¡­

    "Recently, the organizing committee received a joint letter from dozens of writers, requesting that a 'writing session' be arranged on-site on the day of the summit so that writers can write as they please after discussions. After careful consideration, the organizing committee decided to hold a 'writing session' on the summit.  Twenty computers and three electronic screens are installed at the summit, and writers can improvise on the spot to pay tribute to previous literary conferences in Chinese history.¡±

    On the surface, of course, it is "free improvisation", but in fact, when it comes to the scene, the provocation in everyone's words and the atmosphere make the writing easily turn into a fighting essay.

    ? ???I was not willing to go at first, but after they started doing this, I became interested.  "

    After the news was released, Han Shuo immediately called Liu Jingting.

    "You and I are in a similar situation. We have offended many people in the circle. I just thought that if you could attend, you would be able to have someone who could help you stand out." Liu Jingting said with a smile.

    "To be honest, I have been desperate for this circle for a long time, but this time they are showing off and want to show us some color, so it will take a while. Anyway, I have wanted to make them look ugly for a long time."

    "It's not that serious, right?" Liu Jingting said: "In the end, this kind of thing still depends on the individual. For example, if I don't write a word then, you can say whatever you want, but if I don't write, who can bite me?"

    "They won't bite you on the spot, and it will be hard to tell after the show. You still don't understand the behavior in this so-called circle."

    "Aren't you already used to this?"

    "The point is, they are releasing the news now to remind writers to prepare in advance. Although the announcement says improvisation, you will see when the time comes, it will definitely be a group of silent endorsements."

    Liu Jingting said: "Me too."

    "Of course, I will also prepare a few articles. Everyone will endorse and write silently, and we will see who has the highest level." Han Shuo said with a hint of mischief in his tone.

    ¡°You can¡¯t write a prank article, can you?¡±

    "Haha, I actually wanted to write a fairy tale about the Zoo Games, but then I thought about it, I would scold both you and Shui An, so I had to give up."

    Liu Jingting smiled and said: "You can publish this article to your magazine."

    "You said that, and I thought of another good idea. How about we publish a draft invitation together, saying that if a work of better quality appears at the summit, we can accept it as appropriate and pay a thousand words and a thousand yuan. You  how do you feel?"

    "Okay." Liu Jingting agreed while applauding Han Shuo's talent for pranks.

    So, while the West Lake sword discussion forum was being discussed on the Internet, "Yuan Shang Cao" and "Jiang Lu" posted invitation letters at the same time:

    "In response to the call of the summit, this magazine has decided to accept the highest-quality works on the day of the summit and give the author a remuneration of one thousand yuan per thousand words."

    This invitation letter seems solemn, short and concise, but in fact it has a lot to say. First of all, there is a summit to compare articles. The winner or loser is just the evaluation of the group of people at the scene. There is no fixed standard, and there is no first place in the article;

    Secondly, in Han Shuo's concept, the literary world is a circle where mutual praise is common. No matter what text he and Liu Jingting write, everyone will say it is not good, so it means it is not good;

    Finally, with the revelation of this call for papers, Han Shuo and Liu Jingting had a way out. Their articles did not have to be seen by the people present, but they could praise each other's articles as "high quality" and get accepted, which was equivalent to giving back those  A slap in the face.

    This is why Liu Jingting thinks Han Shuo reacts quickly.

    After Han Shuo and Liu Jingting's invitation letters were sent out, Tang Fei immediately called Liu Jingting and asked about their concerns about doing so. Liu Jingting told them truthfully. Tang Fei thought about it and finally said: "In this case, when the time comes we will  We will follow up the live broadcast and open a voting channel on the live video page to allow netizens to serve as judges.¡±

    Liu Jingting said with a smile: "It's not that I'm arrogant. If they do this, they may lose so much that they can't even find their pants. This doesn't mean that there is a big difference in the quality of the articles, but that the reader base is different."

    "Articles always have to be published. If there is a comparison, there is nothing we can do about it."

    "I have no problem."

    "Then let's do it."

    ¡­¡­

    A week before the summit, that is, on September 2, Tage.com announced the live broadcast method of the summit, and everyone's curiosity was completely aroused.

    The TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and the West Lake Swordsmanship have become the most popular topics on the Internet. At the same time, "Will Liu Jingting choose to publish a new book on the day of the summit?" has also become a hot topic of everyone's attention.

    On September 9 of the same year, 96 writers from all over the country gathered at West Lake. Among those present were the older generation writers represented by Feng Changxing, the Zhongxing generation writers represented by Xu Lian, as well as Liu Jingting, Han  Youth writers represented by Shuo, Xue Muliang and others.  It can be said that all the talented people have come together, and the young and old have gathered together.

    The summit officially kicked off.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
