Chapter 27 27. Closing and radio invitation
The public opinion war surrounding "Ghost Blowing the Light" lasted for a week. From more than ten newspapers at the beginning to almost covering all the major newspapers and tabloids in Kyoto in the end, the title of "Ghost Blowing the Light" was well-known in Kyoto in just one week.
Such a large public opinion war also had a great impact on the whole country. Many newspapers quoted reports from it. "Ghost Blowing the Light", as the core of the debate, was naturally mentioned. Therefore, although "Ghost Blowing the Light" has not been published nationwide, it has already gained considerable popularity.
Just like Liu Siyuan's forum, nearly two thousand registered users poured in in just over a week, and most of them paid attention to the work "Ghost Blowing the Light".
This controversial novel can be said to have aroused the curiosity of countless men and women. Whether the impression is good or bad, everyone wants to take a look.
At this time, a piece of news was circulated in the media circle of Kyoto, that is, the upper level seemed to be very dissatisfied with "Ghost Blowing the Light", which also encouraged the media that criticized "Ghost Blowing the Light" and intensified the intensity of the criticism, and even began to affect the author. Some media even asked the author to come out and apologize to the public.
However, just when these people were shouting, an article appeared in the most credible newspaper in the country, "Huaxia Daily", which instantly gave them tons of damage.
"This is not reality, but a novel" - Su Yizhi.
A simple and straightforward title, but with the name of the commentator, this ordinary title has become extraordinary.
Who is Su Yizhi? A master-like figure in the current archaeological world, he has the top knowledge and attainments in the country in ancient tomb excavation and cultural relics restoration. Maybe his name is unfamiliar to ordinary people, but in a certain circle, he represents authority.
Except for Liu Yuan and Nie Wei, no one expected that this old man would finally stand up.
This review is only a few hundred words long, but its position is clear. For example, the article clearly analyzes the content of the novel "Ghost Blowing the Light", saying that it only uses a writing method that combines ancient unofficial history, legends and modern anecdotes to describe a story that mixes reality and fiction, which makes people feel very real, but in fact the content has little connection with reality.
Of course, there are also some criticisms, such as the tomb robbing in it, although it is not for profit, it is illegal after all, etc. In the end, the old man did not forget to advertise the archaeology department, saying that readers who like this aspect can take an archaeology department in the future. At that time, they can study this knowledge openly under the official signboard and experience those ancient tombs with a long history in person.
As soon as the old man's article came out, it was a final decision, and basically this public opinion war could come to an end.
Liu Yuan held the newspaper and looked at the report thoughtfully. Although he had known that Nie Wei had an extraordinary family background, he really did not expect that the other party would have such a relationship. Now think about it, maybe Nie Wei had already made up his mind when this public opinion war started.
Although he was a little unhappy about being used, Liu Yuan did get some practical benefits. He was full of expectations for the nationwide distribution of the newspaper proposed by Nie Wei. Now he has put the application report in the drawer of his desk, waiting to submit the application to the headquarters when he goes to work tomorrow morning.
Perhaps one day in the future, he can really become the editor-in-chief of a newspaper with a circulation of millions. Imagining how glorious it would be at that time, Liu Yuan couldn't help showing a yearning look on his face.
As for Nie Wei, he is now a guest at his grandfather's house.
Grandpa Su Yizhi is over 70 years old this year, and Su Qing is his youngest daughter, so he is particularly fond of his grandson Nie Wei.
Just a few days ago, the grandson suddenly brought a stack of A4 paper, saying that he wanted to ask his grandfather to take a look at the novel he wrote, and the old man immediately became interested.
To be honest, "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is still a little immature in the eyes of the old man. If he were to give an evaluation, it would be that the fun is above average, but the professionalism can only be below average. However, since it is a book written by his grandson, the old man naturally has to encourage it, so he just praised it casually.
Unexpectedly, he was calculated by his own grandson.
Knowing the real purpose of his grandson, the old man was simply laughing and crying, but he was also a little angry at the media for going too far, especially bullying his precious grandson, so the old man took on the task of "rectifying the name".
So there was a report on this day.
With the response of the old man, many masters in the archaeological community stood up to escort "Ghost Blows Out the Light", and soon those media that criticized "Ghost Blows Out the Light" could not stand, and a public opinion war that lasted for several days finally came to an end.
The final beneficiaries of this battle are undoubtedly the few people closely related to "Ghost Blows Out the Light".
For example, Liu Chuang's radio station has increased its program listening rate to over 30 because of this debate, and Liu Yuan's "Yenjing Wen Bao" has a circulation of 170,000. And there is Nie Wei himself. His pen name "Weiyi" became popular in Kyoto together with "Ghost Blowing Out the Light", and he even began to gain a little fame in the country.
As for the media that criticized the book, except for the initial sales, after being beaten to a pulp, the sales also plummeted, even worse than at the beginning. After all, many readers will stand on the side of victory, and the failure is bound to affect its credibility. Without credibility, readers will naturally not favor them.
The public opinion gradually subsided, but Nie Wei's actions have just begun. Liu Yuan's application report has been approved and affirmed by the headquarters. The national edition of Yanshan Wenbao is also about to be published.
Nie Wei has already written two-thirds of the content of "Ghost Blowing Light". Now, in addition to writing 20,000 words of "Ghost Blowing Light" every day, Nie Wei has also started to write "Zhu Xian". These future high-quality IPs, each of which Nie Wei wants to get in his own hands.
In addition, the publishing house under Yanshan Wenhua Group has also begun to contact Nie Wei to discuss the publication of "Ghost Blowing Light".
Of course, Nie Wei did not forget that his essential job was not a writer, but an actor, so every day he worked hardest on studying the script.
The time to join the crew was getting closer and closer, with only two days left, but Nie Wei suddenly received an invitation. I don't know what Liu Chuang was thinking, he actually wanted to invite Nie Wei to participate in a radio program.
