After rebirth, I became a great writer

Time flies, and years pass by. In these times, many stories disappear into memory, and many stories last forever.

Time is the fairest. It can eliminate everything and prove everything. It never speaks, but answers all questions. If you bloom, but butterflies will come. You must be brilliant and the heaven will arrange them.

In fact, the best way to evaluate the quality of a book is to leave it to time.

If after a few years, decades, or even hundreds of years, people can still talk about the stories in the book and remember the plots of the characters in the book, then this book has become a classic, and classics are often created by time.

For example, "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Ball of Fat" that won the highest International Literature Award, and "History of the Earth" that is still talked about so far and has attracted countless experts to study in-depth.

And their authors have also become literary masters that are difficult to surpass.

After reading the first edition of "History of Earth", Zhu Yanlin, former president of the Chinese Writers Association, publicly posted on his personal social platform, saying that he was worthy of being the title of "literary master" and that he wanted to give up the position of president of the Writers Association to Chen Tianhong.

In response, Chen Tianhong expressed his respect to the old seniors first, and at the same time politely rejected the proposal of "abdication and giving up the wise". He said that he would do his best to prepare for the second part of "Earth History Review".

This preparation lasted for eight years, exceeding the original plan expectations

In these eight years, his first group of fans gradually grew older. Lang Shiqi was the first group of Hongwen fans. He fell into the trap when he was watching "The Legend of Wukong".

At that time, he was excited to the leader's office because of the saying "I want to be unable to cover my eyes this day." He fired the leader who put his shoes on him, and turned the so-called General Horse into a pony. (See Chapter 142 for details)

Think about it, more than ten years have passed since today, and Lang Shiqi is approaching fifty years old. After all, even Hongwen’s children are in junior high school, so it is not normal for him to grow old.

For more than ten years, I still remember that there are not many old fans of "The Legend of Wukong".

At the beginning, Lang Shiqi joined several groups of "The Legend of Wukong". He had to talk to like-minded book friends about Sun Wukong. When he was talking about it, he even went to the literary forum to post.

However, as the popularity gradually faded, book friends also had their own things to do. There was gradually no one in the group chatting, and over time it became an advertising and sales group.

Although Lang Shiqi is regretful, he can understand it, because "The Legend of Wukong" is considered an online novel. There is a disadvantage of online novels, that is, they cannot withstand the scrutiny of time and are updated and iterated too quickly.

No matter how classic online articles are, after more than ten years, I will look back and read them. Most of the rest are nostalgia and sighs.

But even so, those stories that once made them passionate still exist in memory, and all they lack is a reason or a summon.

Eight years ago, Chen Tianhong's words "Do you still remember that monkey?" made many old fans who loved "The Legend of Wukong" cry, many people remembered the unruly monkey, and made the group that had been silent for many years lively again.

Lang Shiqi still remembers that after watching the interview, he danced excitedly and was as happy as an 18-year-old child.

Fortunately, he started his own business and became his boss himself. He was alone in the office, otherwise his glorious image that he had maintained in front of his employees for a long time would be shattered.

Today, Lang Shiqi was also very excited because the second part of "Earth History Review" will be officially sold. In order to successfully grab the book, he gave half of the company's employees a vacation and went to the bookstore to help him line up. Who can get the bonus that month?

After waiting for several hours in pain, the ringtone of the cell phone finally rang.

"Hey, boss, I bought it and am on the way back."

"Okay, pay attention to safety! You must protect the books."

Lang Shiqi nervously reminded him, and after hanging up the phone, he started dancing again.

A few dozen minutes later, he was stunned for a long time at the medium-sized carton held by the employee before speaking.

"Didn't I say buying one is enough? How many sets have you bought?"

"Boss, this is a set."

The employee replied with a wry smile, and he was speechless when he bought the book.

The first time I went to a bookstore to buy books and also sent boxes, and they were also uniformly packaged boxes. It is said that they were given by Qingcheng Publishing House, so that everyone can take them home easily when they get books.

"Give it to me, go to the finance department to receive the bonus at the end of the month."

Lang Shiqi took the carton and did not forget what he promised. Even though the company was not big, he was not the boss who wrote the blank check.

After opening the cardboard box, Lang Shiqi counted carefully and finally understood why he had to put it in a box. There were thirty-two books inside, four times that of the first edition of "History of the Earth".

"Good guy, no wonder Hongwen has written it for eight years."

While sighing, he searched in the cardboard box. What he was looking for was not the main book, but the secondary book mentioned by Hongwen.

"Journey to the West, yes, this is this one."

After searching for some more, Lang Shiqi found the new work Hongwen mentioned. When he opened the first page, it was not a catalog, but an introduction about Wu Chengen.

After a rough look, he continued to look back. Lang Shiqi was not interested in Wu Chengen's deeds. The story was written by Hongwen, and this person was just a tool.

[Chapter 1: The spiritual roots are nurtured and the source of the birth of the great way of cultivation of the mind and nature]

The chaos has not yet been divided into chaos in the world, and no one has seen it. Since Pangu broke the Hongmeng, he has developed the distinction between the clear and the turbidity.

The people who have followed the benevolence and found that all things are good. If you want to know that the creation is the essence of the original power, you must read the passage of the discourse on Journey to the West.

There is a land overseas in Dongsheng Shenzhou, called Aolai Kingdom. The country is close to the sea. There is a famous mountain in the sea, called Huaguo Mountain. This mountain is the ancestral vein of the ten continents and the dragon of the three islands. It stands from the clear and turbidity, and was formed after the Hongmeng judgment.

"Well, it's a half-vernacular and half-classical Chinese sentence! Well, it seems to be more sensible than "The Legend of Wukong"."

Lang Shiqi knocked on the head and muttered.

After experiencing the incident of "Dream of Red Mansions", the first edition of "Article of the Earth" was first mentioned. Most readers have become accustomed to it and it will not be so difficult to read.

Next, Lang Shiqi saw the trouble in the Heavenly Palace when the Monkey King was born. During this period, he shouted loudly, and he had a strong aura of a man's youth.

It was not until the Jade Emperor invited the Buddha to press the monkey under the Five Elements Mountain that the cheers turned into complaints.

"Can, wasn't Tathagata's old silver coin sent away by Tang Seng? Why did he come out again?"

After complaining, he realized that this was not "The Legend of Wukong", but another story of Journey to the West.

Five hundred years later, Tathagata Buddha was greedy for lust and rejoicing in the people of Nanshanbu Prefecture, and killed more and fought. He ordered Guanyin Bodhisattva to go to the east land to find someone, come to the west to obtain scriptures, and save all sentient beings.

Guanyin Bodhisattva took the wooden fork walker to the east to seek the sutra, and conquered two demons on the way: a rolling curtain general who was originally His Highness Lingxue serving Mixing, was demoted to Liusha River by the Jade Emperor because he accidentally broke the glass cup;

A Marshal Tianpeng, who was originally from the Tianhe River, was knocked down to the mortal world and reincarnated into a pig's shape because he brought wine to Chang'e. He became a demon in Yunzhan Cave, Fuling Mountain.

Guanyin Bodhisattva also asked the Jade Emperor to complain about the son of the Dragon King of the West Sea who was breaking the law and sent him into a deep ravine, asking him to wait for the people who seek the scriptures.

Next is the story of the five masters and disciples traveling west to obtain scriptures. They went through hardships and dangers along the way, subdued demons and demons, and went through eighty-one difficulties. Finally, they arrived in the west and saw the Buddha of Tathagata, and finally the five saints came true.

"I'm a damn, the monkey has become a Buddha! I can't accept this ending! Can't accept it."

Lang Shiqi's roar sounded in the office, and his eyes were red and he looked at the last paragraph, and the image of a monkey wearing a cassock appeared in his mind.

Such an impact made him stand unsteadily for a while and fell on a chair.

At this time, the sky outside was already faintly white, just like Lang Shiqi's current face. He read books all day and night, but he got such an ending. His physical fatigue could not keep up with the collapse of his spiritual beliefs.

"Hongwen, you are destroying our faith! Haha, you taught me to dare to fight, but now you told me to become a Buddha on the ground, and all four elements are empty."

Lang Shiqi suddenly felt that everything had no meaning. If possible, he would rather Hongwen did not write "Journey to the West". After eight years of expectation, he finally got such a result, which he could not accept.

After sitting there for a long time, he picked up his mobile phone like a life-saving straw, opened the group of "The Legend of Wukong", hoping to get comfort from the book friends, but he saw all the sadness.

Finally he logged into the literature forum, which was the only hope. Fortunately, someone was really analyzing it, and this person was still very well-known. He was the only one of the four martial arts gods who had commented on "The Legend of Wukong" in the circle of writers, Bai Yu Feng Zijie.

[Bai Yu]: Hello everyone, I saw many book friends discussing "Journey to the West", saying that they could not accept the final outcome.

Haha, I am also a fan of "The Legend of Wukong". After getting "A Brief History of the Earth", the first thing I read was "Journey to the West".

I wonder if you still remember that Hongwen once wrote this passage in "The Legend of Wukong". When Wukong was apprenticing to Subhuti, he saw history in the eyes of his master. That history was not described at that time. (See Chapter 145 for details)

I think what Wukong saw at that time was the story in "Journey to the West", and only in this way can he explain it reasonably.

You might as well think about it from a different perspective. If we first read "Journey to the West", the ending will be completely acceptable.

Please be honest, whether it is in the writing style, story structure, character image, artistic characteristics, and philosophical thoughts, "Journey to the West" is far superior to "The Legend of Wukong". It is no exaggeration to say that it can be regarded as a classic work in Chinese gods and demons novels.

In turn, I read "The Legend of Wukong" again, which is more like a fan novel from "Journey to the West".

It is precisely because everyone prefers the Monkey King who makes a big fuss in the sky rather than the Fighting and Battle Buddha who sits in Lingshan that they are so sad and angry.

I wonder if you have read the preface carefully. In the Wu Chengen era, Taoism was an evil force. Colluded with the rulers of the court, losing the progressive significance of folk Taoism, and it has reached a point of decay and despised by the people. He wrote "Journey to the West" in this context for satirical purposes.

In "Journey to the West", Buddhism is a positive image, saving sentient beings and relieving the suffering of the people. The monkey's rebellion is also a rebellion against Taoism, and the heavenly palace is also a big fuss. Therefore, in the end, the five masters and disciples went through thousands of difficulties and obstacles to retrieve the true scriptures and returned to the Tang Dynasty to save the people. There is no problem.

In fact, "The Legend of Wukong" is a story about Hongwen's struggle against fate from the perspective of modern people. It mainly writes about Wukong, while "Journey to the West" is about Journey to the West.

Because time is tight, I need to read "Journey to the West" a few more times, so I won't analyze it in detail.

But I can tell you one thing. After reading "Journey to the West", you might as well read "The Legend of Wukong" again. You will find that the awkward things in the previous book will suddenly become clear and the characters of the master and apprentice will be more full.

After reading Feng Zijie's post, Lang Shiqi calmed down. He realized that he was indeed too obsessed with monkeys and did not read some of the content in detail.

After shook his head and feeling that he could still hold on, Lang Shiqi went to watch "The Legend of Wukong" again, and this time I watched it in comparison.

As he watched, he felt a sense of identity with Feng Zijie's words. To be fair, "Journey to the West" is indeed better than "The Legend of Wukong".

Perhaps "The Legend of Wukong" is really a fan novel from "Journey to the West".

Thinking of this, Lang Shiqi became more comfortable and his mood improved. What was he really worried about?

Two Journey to the West, Two Story, Two Monkeys, Two Endings, nothing more than which monkey do you like more.

After figuring this out, Lang Shiqi was sleepy and fell asleep in the office.

China, Kyoto City.

Every year tonight, the moon is as bright as a training session, and there is no empty seat in the Great Hall, which is enough to accommodate ten thousand people.

In addition to the invited guests, the others were famous writers from all over the world, and journalists flocked to them, and the hall was filled with book fans.

They are about to witness a miracle in the history of literature. Some people will win the highest International Literature Award for two consecutive times, not only for the consecutive times, but since the award was established, no one has ever won the International Literature Award for twice in a row.

But today, all this will become a reality. No one will doubt whether Hongwen can win the award. This literary award is held in Kyoto, China. You should know that the award ceremony was all in New York, America before that.

Also, what book can compare to "Article of the Earth" when looking at the whole world?

The content it contains has not been completely parsed yet. Everyone still remembers how the media and celebrities from various countries evaluated the second part of this book.

[New York Times]: It is hard to imagine that Hongwen actually wrote a different American history. Perhaps in another parallel world, our country is called the United States, our primitive residents are Indians, we experienced the invasion of Western European countries, we won the War of Independence under the leadership of Washington, and then experienced the Civil War, the Industrial Revolution, and the two world wars established our position as hegemony in the world.

[England Daily]: It’s funny that after reading "History of the Earth", we truly understand what the British Empire is, what the Sun does not set, and why we don’t have Napoleon in reality?

Thank you Hongwen for giving us such a brilliant history in the novel. Thank you for giving us a Sherlock Holmes and a Napoleon.

[Former American President Besley]: I was once intoxicated by the vastness of the universe in "The Three-Body Problem". Now I am impressed by the history of civilization in "The History of Earth". Compared with the civilization of the universe, the civilization on earth is more real, and it is like the real world that exists. It is undeniable that Hongwen really built a civilization.

[English Queen Olliana]: I like the Elizabeth chapter in the book, I will work hard to be her, and I hope Hongwen can change the endings of Romeo and Juliet in the next edition of "History of the Earth". Why do I write it as a tragedy?

[Poetry Association Derick]: On behalf of the Poetry Associations of various countries, I will issue a statement that we will form the International Poetry Association. Mr. Hongwen is our first honorary president. He will be the only honorary president. Since then, the International Poetry Association will no longer establish honorary presidents to express our respect for him.

[Famous historian Bahar]: As we all know, important documents in Latin America have been damaged, and the history of nearly a hundred years is incomplete. The sub-book "A Hundred Years of Solitude" in "History of Earth" reproduces the historical and social landscape of Latin America. Although many details need to be considered, they are of great reference significance for our complete documents.

[Famous musicologist Adribek]: Mr. Hongwen, in the next edition, can he write the "Fifth Symphony" (Fate) of the character Beethoven in the book? I know this requirement is too much, but we have not experienced that kind of darkness. We especially want to hear how tragic and exciting the music that fights fate is.

In everyone's memories, the award ceremony of the 31st International Literature Award began. Surprisingly, the host was not alone, but dozens of elderly people went up, and they lined up one by one.

Everyone suddenly discovered that these old people are the most authoritative old writers in the world and have served as presidents of writers' associations in their respective countries.

Among them is Zhu Yanlin, who is already in his 80s, and their current identities are members of the highest jury of the International Literature Award.

The bell rang, and Zhu Yanlin, as a representative, picked up the golden envelope from the tray, pulled out the note inside, and used all his strength to pronounce the name above loudly.

"Now I announce that the winner of the 31st International Literature Award is Hongwen! His winning work is "A Review of the History of the Earth."

"Because he created the history of the Literature Award and wrote a unique book for us, all the members of our jury unanimously decided to award the title of Hongwen's great literary master in recognition of his contribution to world literature."

"This is the highest honor of the Literature Award and the expectations we all have for him. We hope that he can continue to write "A History of the Earth" and we hope that the legend can continue."

In the first row of the Great Hall, Chen Tianhong and Liu Yifei held their hands tightly together, and they looked at each other and smiled.

"Yifie, I've fulfilled my dream."

Chen Tianhong was talking to Yifei and to himself.

No one knows how much energy he spent on writing "History of the Earth". Even though he had a unique brain, he gathered so much knowledge into a book, even a literary master did not have such terrifying control over the writing.

It can be said that he finally did it.

Chen Tianhong slowly stood up, walked to the stage, and held the unique trophy in this world.

The audience was applause and countless people were cheering!

Being in the same era as Hongwen is the happiness of their generation. They have witnessed history with their own eyes and the birth of a "big writer". (The full text ends)

Extra: Time goes back more than ten years ago, a messy bed, with books everywhere on the bed, comics, novels, and magazines

A young boy with a standard buzz cut is looking through a martial arts novel, but it is the martial arts masterpiece "Kunlun" of this world.

The young boy looked very pretty, but he was very similar to Chen Tianhong. Suddenly the boy felt his head sinking and then he fell into endless darkness.

"Chen Tianhong, Chen Tianhong, are you okay? Wake up quickly."

In a daze, a sweet cry came and the boy opened his hazy eyes.

He saw a beautiful face, looked up, and saw a yellow helmet with two cute yellow ears on the helmet. Looking down, there were four big words written on the chest, "Meituan Takeout".

Unfamiliar and familiar memories came, and the boy realized that this was the young lady who often delivered takeout to him.

No, this memory is not my own, um, it is my own growing up. Damn! Have you traveled through time?

I was stunned for a while. The boy knew his identity in this world. He was 25 years old. He was a professional online writer (failed), had no girlfriend, no car, three-digit deposit, and rented a house.

Damn, I am too miserable in this world. God, you shouldn’t give me some benefits, such as gold fingers.

Wait, my head seems to be different. Hey, I can actually remember all the chapters and texts of "Kunlun". I'll remember them, too.
