Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

"Cao Sang, this is the bookstore!"

The sudden appearance of Nakamori Akina's voice brought Cao Zhiqiang back to his senses.

Looking up, sure enough, they had arrived at the door of a bookstore.

This bookstore looks very new. Not only does it have a new sign, but the decoration is also very modern and trendy. It doesn't have the sense of history that other bookstores have. At first glance, it looks like a new store that just opened not long ago.

But that's all. The key is that the name of the bookstore makes Cao Zhiqiang feel familiar.

"Tsutaya Bookstore?" Cao Zhiqiang subconsciously touched his chin, "It can't be the chain of Internet celebrity bookstores I knew in my previous life, right?"

After smiling slightly, Cao Zhiqiang stopped thinking about this and followed Akina Nakamori into the bookstore.

After entering, I found that it covers a large area and is very bright. The decoration is also simple and fashionable. Everything is fashionable and trendy, which is different from traditional Japanese bookstores.

"Not bad, not bad." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "It's quite big. Is this a new one?"

"Yes." Akina Nakamori smiled, "This bookstore was opened just this year, less than three months after it opened.

If there really is Yasuko Sawaguchi in this world, considering her appearance, it is absolutely impossible for her to be unknown, at least in that high school, she cannot be unknown.

For example, you can travel to various places, learn more about Japanese customs, read more novels and magazines here, and then write "Snow Country", which will naturally not arouse suspicion.

Even if there wasn’t that person in Osaka, I would still treat him as a tourist.

In Japan, "Snow Country" is the most famous novel second only to "The Tale of Genji". It is said that any larger bookstore will not be without this novel.

If I have to name a Japanese female star that I like in the 1980s, I can only think of one, and that is the last beauty of the Showa era - Yasuko Sawaguchi.

But not necessarily.

Hmm, it would be nice to go and have a look if you have a chance.

The only problem is that it seems a bit too abrupt for a foreigner to write such a Japanese-style work.

"But you can't rush this kind of thing. You have to take your time. It's better to stay in Japan for a while, travel more to various places in Japan, learn more about the customs and habits, and then write it down. This is more reasonable."

Because the 1980s was the period when the relationship between China and Western society was at its best.

It can be seen from this that Akina Nakamori likes to watch "Captain Tsubasa", which is perfectly normal.

"Isn't it a bit greedy?" Cao Zhiqiang squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, "Plagiarizing so many Japanese songs is enough to be conspicuous. If I shine in literature again, it seems too easy to attract attention, which is not good for me.

A spy career."

"What, is there a problem?" Cao Zhiqiang raised his head and asked with a smile.

But actually think about it, no matter which world Kawabata Yasunari is in, he has a tendency of self-destruction. Kawabata Yasunari in Cao Zhiqiang’s previous life also died of suicide, but it was only after he was very old.

After all, he had long discovered that this world was only specious and not exactly the same as the world in his previous life, and could not be regarded as the past tense of his previous world.

Darkness under the lamp is not for nothing, and most people would not believe that a famous writer with a long reputation in the Western world could actually be a spy.

But I have been in Japan for so long, and I have never heard of a female star named Yasuko Sawaguchi here.

By the way, the comic "Captain Soccer" seems to have appeared in 1983, and it was very popular as soon as it appeared. It was a very popular comic at that time.

Of course, this is not absolute. After all, the Nobel Prize in Literature also depends on the times.

The reason is also very simple, that is, Cao Zhiqiang had thought about plagiarizing "Norwegian Wood" before. Although he thought there should be no problem, he finally decided to investigate first.

To be on the safe side, Cao Zhiqiang searched every section and confirmed that there really was no "Norwegian Wood", which made him relieved.

Anyway, most of these three novels are fantasy, so I have no problem writing them from a foreigner’s perspective.

Maybe if I copy those three novels by Kawabata Yasunari, I can win the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Yes, "The Dancing Girl of Izu" does contain some erotic descriptions, but they are not explicit. Instead, they are written very beautifully.

"This..." Nakamori Akina bit her lip, lowered her head and stopped talking.

Sure enough, as a time traveler, you need to think divergently and open up the world.

After all, I am not a big fan of Nakamori Akina.

After separation, Akina Nakamori went straight to the comics section, and she was a comic lover at first glance.

Nakamori Akina frowned: "Well, this book is a bit difficult to read, and there are many erotic descriptions of men and women in it. It doesn't seem too good for your age, right?"

Even if they are politically correct, Western society should be more tolerant to Chinese literati, at least give them a jujube.

Kawabata Yasunari is known as "Japan's most beautiful writer", which is not nonsense.

As long as the packaging is good and some good songs are given, Yasuko Sawaguchi may not be worse than Akina Nakamori.

Akina Nakamori laughed: "It's different. If I buy it, I might throw it aside and never read it again. But if I rent the book to read, I will be very urgent and will read it within the specified time.

Read it carefully and carefully.

Anyway, I will set up a record label and management company here in Japan in the future, and sooner or later I will have to discover local artists. After all, I will be very busy in the future, and I will not be able to do everything myself.

Of course, even if you don’t win the Nobel Prize, you should at least win Japan’s Akutagawa Prize.

How awesome is this novel?

"Norwegian Wood" is for fame, and "Snow Country" is for winning awards.

Not only can you buy and rent books here, but you can also rent CDs, LPs, cassettes, videos, and even laser discs, which are very comprehensive.

Looking at the back of Akina Nakamori returning the book, Cao Zhiqiang nodded again.

"This..." Akina Nakamori hesitated, but quickly smiled, "No problem, let's do it."

Yasuko Sawaguchi can act and sing. If she hasn't debuted yet, she has to make a move first.

After all, in the Japanese entertainment industry, the most profitable thing is always the artist company, not the artist himself.

As a trilogy, it must be complete.

Maybe, Akina Nakamori here will never fall in love with that scumbag again.

Seeing her expression, Cao Zhiqiang shook his head in amusement and immediately realized how conservative Nakamori Akina was at this time.

When I have free time, I like to sit here and drink coffee while listening to music, or drink coffee while reading comics, it’s very interesting.”

"Norwegian Wood" was first published by Haruki Murakami in 1987 in Cao Zhiqiang's previous life. Ordinarily, it should not have appeared in this world in 1983.

But if it was the early 1980s, that would not necessarily be the case.

Is it because there is no Yasuko Sawaguchi in this world, or the time is wrong and she hasn’t debuted yet?

By the way, I remember that Yasuko Sawaguchi graduated from Tatesenyo High School in Osaka Prefecture, probably in 1983 or 1984.

Unlike "Norwegian Wood", the novel "Snow Country" is a completely different thing.

After meeting Akina Nakamori, Cao Zhiqiang looked at the comic she was reading and, oh, it turned out to be "Captain Tsubasa".

However, the order of publishing the books must be arranged well. You must first plagiarize "Norwegian Wood" to build your reputation first, then "Ancient Capital" and "Thousand Cranes" will pave the way, and finally use "Snow Country" for a one-hit kill.

In this world in 1930, Kawabata Yasunari here was unfortunately arrested for secretly helping Kurahara Yuito, and then committed suicide in prison.

In other words, if I plagiarize this novel now, there will be no problem.

However, precisely because he died too early, many of his later masterpieces did not appear, such as his three most classic works, "Snow Country", "Ancient Capital", and "Thousand Cranes", which helped him win the Nobel Prize for Literature.

》, none of them appeared.

After sighing again, Cao Zhiqiang simply bought a copy of "The Dancing Girl of Izu" and then went to the cafe to find Akina Nakamori.

At the same time, he also discovered something strange.

Of course, there is another theory here, which is that he did not commit suicide in prison, but died of persecution.

No matter what, Kawabata Yasunari here died in 1930, and he was a bachelor until his death, and he was not married at all.

Out of curiosity, Cao Zhiqiang went directly to a bookstore clerk and asked about Kawabata Yasunari.

But there just isn't any here.

The other party was an enthusiastic middle-aged man who seemed to know Kawabata Yasunari's situation very well. When he discovered that Cao Zhiqiang took the initiative to ask Kawabata Yasunari, he explained it happily.

Well, it doesn't matter, you can take your time.

Naturally, Kawabata Yasunari cannot become a leading figure in the Japanese literary world, at least he cannot be compared with Dazai Osamu, and there is no love and death between Dazai Osamu and Kawabata Yasunari.

I have so many good songs and I sing them all by myself. It’s so tiring.

It is best to find a group of potential artists and let them make money for themselves.

I'm sorry to the system and myself if I don't say it or copy it out. The key point is that if he becomes famous, it will actually be more beneficial to his "espionage activities".

It would be hard to tell if you were two thousand years from now.

Yes, yes, yes, the matter of plagiarizing the "Snow Kingdom" trilogy can be put on the agenda.

"Ah, that's right." Nakamori Akina said with a smile, "Indeed, this novel is very famous and has appeared on the screen many times. Yamaguchi Momoe-senpai is just one of them. Although it is also good, I prefer Yoshinaga Sayuri-senpai.

of."

"Okay, okay, with the operation of the great Japanese writer, the schedule can be improved."

Furthermore, you can release a best-selling book before "Snow Country", such as "Norwegian Wood", which is very suitable.

By the way, in addition to these, there is also an on-site cafe where you can drink coffee and read a book.

After thinking again and again, Cao Zhiqiang decided to copy it.

At the very least, he had to make sure that "Norwegian Wood" did not appear, so that if he plagiarized it, it would be considered original.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang's heart suddenly jumped.

And even if she meets that scumbag again and continues to fall in love with him, it's none of my business.

Hey, forget it, why are you thinking about this?

The so-called "most beautiful Nobel Prize-winning work in literature" is "Snow Country"!

In addition, this novel also has a special feature, that is, there is no specific era, or in other words, it can be set in any era.

But here, Kawabata Yasunari was unlucky. He was arrested and imprisoned, and then he died in a daze. He didn't know whether he committed suicide or was killed. Anyway, he died.

"Yeah, you saw it." Nakamori Akina stuck out her tongue, "Actually, I really have poor self-control. I have to be restrained by someone, otherwise... Oops, I won't say any more, wait for me, I'll do it first

Return the book and talk about it later."

In fact, if you are a teenager who loves literature, you will generally like the novel "The Dancing Girl of Izu" because it has a stronger youthful atmosphere and more beautiful descriptions.

After all, this world is different from the world in my previous life.

Therefore, I prefer renting books rather than buying them, which is completely different from whether I have the money to buy them."

Just when Cao Zhiqiang thought that Kawabata Yasunari did not exist in this world, he found "The Dancing Girl of Izu", and the author was Kawabata Yasunari.

After discovering this situation, Cao Zhiqiang began to search for other novels by Kawabata Yasunari, such as "Ancient Capital" and "Thousand Cranes", but found none.

"Give it back?" Cao Zhiqiang looked at Akina Nakamori, "Why don't you buy it? You seem to like this comic very much. Why don't you buy it and read it slowly? You shouldn't be short of the money, right?"

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang showed a bright smile.

As soon as I arrived at the cafe, I quickly found Akina Nakamori. It turned out that she had been here early in the morning and was drinking coffee and reading comics.

Although the sales volume of "Norwegian Wood" is great, after all, it is similar to a domestic martial arts novel, or a relatively popular romance novel. In terms of literary quality, it is completely different from "Snow Country"

There is no comparison.

"Hey, according to that, his "Snow Country" hasn't appeared yet, so if I write it, can it be..."

"Isn't it, The Dancer of Izu? You actually bought this book?" Akina Nakamori looked at the book in Cao Zhiqiang's hand.

If it were Kyoko Koizumi who prefers literature, I'm afraid it would be different.

"A great singer and a great writer, it seems that I am destined to never return on the road of plagiarism."

"I understand." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "It seems that your self-control is a bit weak."

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Kawabata Yasunari has a very high status here. In Japanese history, he is not only a famous writer, but also an anti-Japanese democracy fighter.

After saying that, Akina Nakamori stood up, picked up the comic in her hand, and trotted to change books.

If you have a chance, why not go and look for that school?

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "That's indeed good."

But everything is possible, so he still had to come over and take a look before talking.

"Haha." Cao Zhiqiang suddenly closed the book, "Actually, I bought this book because of someone else's recommendation. It is said that this book is very famous and has been adapted into a movie, and it was played by Momoe Yamaguchi, so I feel

interest."

In Cao Zhiqiang's memory of his previous life, Kawabata Yasunari in that world was indeed sympathetic to red ideals when he was young and helped many red figures, but he was never caught.

But when I searched again, there was only one "Collected Novels of Kawabata Yasunari", which contained some of his early short stories and short stories, but his later masterpieces, such as his most famous "Snow Country", were not included at all.

The novel "Snow Country" is a masterpiece that can win the Nobel Prize for Literature, and it is also the highest achievement in the life of the great writer Kawabata Yasunari.

At first, he didn't ask the service staff here, he just silently searched in some novel sections.

Cao Zhiqiang, on the other hand, went to the book section to see what the books here were, or in other words, what types of best-selling books were there.

People in later generations will know that the Nobel Prize is a thing that is completely about Western politics.

Moreover, fame itself is also a kind of protection. Some irregular operations can deal with ordinary people, but they are not suitable for dealing with celebrities.

All we can say is that Kawabata Yasunari here had a bad fate. He was obviously very talented, but he died too young.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "The male protagonist in it is only nineteen years old, and I am nineteen years old. What's the problem?"

By the way, just in case, before writing "Snow Country", you can copy "Ancient Capital" and "Thousand Cranes" together.

"Norwegian Wood" is just that, but works like the "Snow Country" trilogy, even in the 1980s, there is no reason why they cannot win the Akutagawa Prize.

He now understands a little bit why Nakamori Akina was deceived by scumbags again and again and couldn't get out again and again. It seems that it is not necessarily because she is so deeply in love that she cannot extricate herself. It is more likely that she lacks self-control.

After a brief pause, Cao Zhiqiang said: "In this case, can we go separately? I want to go shopping alone and meet back at the internal cafe you mentioned, okay?"

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang's past history can be used as a reference, but it is not appropriate to copy it completely.

However, it can also be seen from this that Nakamori Akina is not a literary girl, so she does not like "Izu No Dancing Girl" and has many misunderstandings.

It's the 1980s now. If I wrote those three novels, and I'm still Chinese, I might not be able to win awards.

It was in the 1960s that Kawabata Yasunari won the Nobel Prize for Literature.

His works have an average story-telling, but the kind of rich character descriptions are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Ah, okay." Akina Nakamori looked at the comic in her hand with some reluctance, but closed it again, "Then let's go back, but you wait for me first, I'll return the book before we talk."

I searched and searched, searched and searched, and sure enough, the book "Norwegian Wood" was nowhere to be found.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and nodded.

At most, after writing the work, just participate less in interviews and keep it more mysterious.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang looked at his watch: "Ah, it's getting late. We should go back so as not to worry them. After all, we have to shoot a short film in the afternoon."

If she hasn't debuted yet, I can dig her out in advance.

For example, "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" was also written by a foreigner. It has also become a household name in Japan.

After listening to the other party's explanation, Cao Zhiqiang realized what the problem was.

As a result, Cao Zhiqiang and Nakamori Akina separated directly, each acting independently, each looking for books and audio-visual products that they liked.

It turns out that the previous experience of Kawabata Yasunari here was similar to what Cao Zhiqiang remembered, and the problem occurred in 1930.

There is no "Snow Country" here?

There is no famous work by Yasunari Kawabata - "Snow Country" here!

You know, in Cao Zhiqiang's memory, the novel "Snow Country" is a well-known masterpiece in Japan.

I can’t just think about doing everything myself. The key is to build an elite team and let the team make money for me. This is the kingly way.

That's right, here in Japan, we will follow this step for the time being and focus on the entertainment industry.

When you have money, invest it in the country, first engage in the entertainment industry to make quick money, and then use the money to invest in industry.

As long as you take your time, sooner or later you can transform from being a great writer or a great singer to a great industrialist.

To prosper a country through industry, only by becoming a real big industrialist will your life be worth it!
