Chapter 430 The complete collection of fairy tales in the world? bring it on! Enter the world!
Many people looked at the four illustrations and the names of the four fairy tales, and for a moment they couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
"This is real?"
Finally someone spoke.
Can it not be true?
Tongqushe has once again put up an advertisement: ""The Fairy Tales of the West Tower" will be available in major bookstores tomorrow, so stay tuned."
Four brand-new fairy tales, plus "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" make up five fairy tales, enough to make a fairy tale volume.
It's just that no one's attention is focused on this.
Instead, they all devoted themselves to four new fairy tales.
Because before this, no fairy tale writer had ever dared to publish four fairy tales at once.
Is it confidence?
Or conceited?
Especially now that Xilou's "Ma Liang" is popular in the children's circle. It is too easy for Xilou to publish a new fairy tale at the cusp of this trend.
But no matter what, Xilou made enough money this time.
The next day.
As soon as bookstores across China opened, huge numbers of people poured in.
There are fans of Xilou.
There are media reporters.
There are spectators.
There are also parents with small children.
Well... of course there are college students with shining intelligent eyes.
"Boss, please give me a copy of "Xilou Fairy Tales"."
"Beauty, where is "The Fairy Tale of the West Tower"?"
"Where are the fairy tales in the West Tower? Bring me two copies."
"..."
As a fairy tale writer, and because his son said he wanted to read more works by "Grandpa Xilou" every day, Chen Yuanfeng naturally came to the bookstore and grabbed a copy of "Xilou Fairy Tales" as soon as possible.
Rob!
Chen Yuanfeng never thought that he would grab a fairy tale book in his lifetime.
But seeing the crowds of people in the bookstore, he was sure that if he arrived late, he wouldn't be able to buy it at all.
As a fairy tale writer himself, he almost went crazy with envy when he saw such a scene, but he was also grateful in his heart. Because Chen Haifeng knew that Xilou had brought huge popularity to the fairy tale industry, and then fairy tale writers like them all enjoyed the dividends of the popularity. This can be seen from the recent increase in sales of his works by more than 50%.
Back home.
The son almost rushed forward: "Dad, Dad, have you bought Grandpa Xilou's fairy tale book?"
"It's not Grandpa Xilou, it's Uncle Xilou."
Correction by Chen Yuanfeng.
He watched Xilou's live broadcast two years ago and guessed that the other party was not very old.
But the son still stubbornly said: "Even Grandpa Xilou, you have to call him uncle."
"..."
What a great boy I am!
Chen Yuanfeng shook the fairy tale book in his hand, then opened it: "Come, let's read it together."
He himself also wanted to know what kind of fairy tales Xilou brought.
The first chapter is "Three Little Monks".
The story is very simple, much simpler than "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush", but Chen Yuanfeng rarely fell into thinking. He felt that he actually realized a profound life principle while reading the fairy tale: One monk carries water to drink, and two The monk carried water to drink, but the three monks had no water to drink.
Simple fairy tales contain great truths. It shocked him greatly.
The second article is "Monkey Fishing for the Moon".
Next to me, my son burst out laughing. He laughed and shouted: "Stupid monkey, the moon in the water is fake."
Chen Yuanfeng did not smile. It is difficult for adults to enter the fairy tale world of children, no matter how well written this fairy tale is. Even if he is a fairy tale writer himself.
But he felt that he had realized another truth: the flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, is our life real or illusory?
He thought about it, but he couldn't get out.
Next is "The Crow Drinks Water".
His son Xianxian's eyes shone brightly when he saw it: "The crow is so smart. It came up with a good idea. I will be as smart as the crow in the future."
When Chen Yuanfeng saw his son's performance, he felt that he had realized something again.
Simple fairy tales allow children to enjoy the joy of stories and learn the truth unconsciously.
This is the highest meaning of fairy tales, right?
The last "Scarecrow" was a bit difficult for six-year-old Xianxian to watch.
However, Chen Yuanfeng became more and more frightened as he watched.
If it were said that the previous three fairy tales were difficult for him to represent. That fairy tale made him fascinated for the first time. A fairy tale actually made him understand all kinds of things in the world.
My son is still reading "The Scarecrow" slowly. With his six-year-old ability, it will probably take a long time to finish reading and understand this fairy tale.
But Chen Yuanfeng stopped looking.
He was thinking about a question: Is this... really a fairy tale created by us Chinese people?
For the first time, he felt that Chinese fairy tales were no longer inferior to any other country.
Whether it’s the story or the underlying truth.
Not bad at all!
What made him even more uneasy was that although Western fairy tales were exquisitely conceived, the principles of life they expounded were difficult to resonate with Eastern children. These fairy tales in Xilou are stories that are truly nourished on Chinese soil. The principles contained in them are also in line with our three views, making it easier for children to empathize with them.
For example: the principle of cooperation contained in the three young monks.
For example: crows drinking water imply more brain use and more thinking.
These principles are closest to Eastern educational concepts.
I saw my son next to me still immersed in the fairy tale world.
Chen Yuanfeng's eyes became complicated, and then he opened the close friends group.
As expected, the group was already in a lively mood.
"It turns out that simple fairy tales can also contain such profound truths."
“It’s amazing that children can understand these key principles.”
"Although these four stories are not as interesting as "Ma Liang" in terms of interest, in terms of theory, they far surpass it."
"It's also very interesting. "Monkey Catching the Moon" and "Crow Drinking Water" were watched over and over again by my two children, and they laughed every time. They even brought a bottle to simulate crow drinking. The behavior of water.”
"..."
Even these fairy tale writers are so shocked, let alone ordinary people.
The whole network!
It’s hot again!
Four fairy tales...no, five fairy tales directly hit the hot searches.
[Following "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush", Xilou creates four more animations]
[Once upon a time there was a mountain, a temple in the mountain, and a young monk in the temple]
["Monkey Fishing for the Moon" did you laugh? 】
【Smart Crow】
["Scarecrow" shocked the literary world]
In the fairy tale world, is there any moment more crazy than today?
Five fairy tales occupied five hot searches. I am afraid that no fairy tale writer has ever thought that their industry would have such a glorious day.
As for the previous topics of fairy tales such as "Puppy Beibei" and "Little Piggy Run" being rectified and Oriental fairy tales being criticized, they were all suppressed without a trace.
Fans in Xilou shouted arrogantly: "Who else is dissatisfied?!!!"
I recall that a few days ago, when Xilou came back to write fairy tales, there were still many people who questioned, disbelieved, and ridiculed me.
Now!
Fans' eyes went to the sky.
"I just asked: Who else!!!"
"Xi Lou takes action, and I have the world!"
"Who said Xilou can't write fairy tales?"
"..."
As for the parents, they were even more surprised.
At the same time, he was certain of one thing: "It seems that it wasn't us who were too demanding in the past, but those fairy tale writers who had no intention, and the fairy tales they wrote could easily teach children bad things. Look at the fairy tales written by Xilou, aren't they very good? So... …Please fairy tale writers, when you write fairy tales in the future, you should follow Xilou’s standards!”
A group of fairy tale writers vomited blood.
Pain and happiness.
Happiness is that they are sincerely happy seeing the current popularity of the fairy tale industry.
It hurts because they feel that with the mountain like West Tower running across their heads, it will be even more difficult for them to write fairy tales in the future.
…
Wang Mo has returned to the Magic City.
Yunhai Media, Yuan Xiong stared at Wang Mo, looking up and down, left and right.
Wang Mo frowned when he saw it: "Brother Xiong, stop looking at me. If you look at me again, I'm pregnant."
Yuan Xiong coughed: "Let me ask you, you have only been away for a few days, why did you suddenly start writing fairy tales? And you made such a big noise?"
Wang Mo said: "Isn't it normal for a scholar to be able to write a few fairy tales?"
"Right."
Yuan Xiong doesn't understand literature, so he thinks it makes sense.
After a moment, he said seriously: "I am now considering whether to set up a literature department in the new department. It will be dedicated to answering your various literary issues."
When he said this, the corners of his mouth twitched.
If an entertainment company sets up a literary department, who would believe it?
However, as Wang Mo's involvement in literature became wider and wider, it would be too busy if he did not set up a professional department.
Just like this time, when Wang Mo signed a contract with Tongqushe to publish books, the various processes were extremely rough. Fortunately, Tongqu Club did not dare to fool Xilou and gave them the most favorable terms. Otherwise, if it were another fairy tale writer, he could easily be cheated by the publishing house.
But if the company has a professional department, professionals can handle the matter.
Wang Mo thought for a while, nodded and said, "I think it's feasible."
Seeing that Wang Mo agreed, Yuan Xiong immediately said: "Then I will make arrangements next."
After Yuan Xiong left.
Wang Mo turned on the computer and just boarded the Penguin.
Didi didi~~~
I saw a series of news coming over.
It was sent by Yang Yiwen.
"Teacher Xilou, are you there?"
"Teacher Xilou, I have something to discuss with you."
"Teacher Xilou, please reply to me if you are online."
Several news in a row is probably a relatively important matter.
Wang Mo immediately sent a message: "Mr. Yang, I'm here."
Yang Yiwen replied almost instantly: "Teacher Xilou, you are finally online... Because this matter is a bit important, I can't explain it in a few sentences. How about you give me a call? I will communicate with you on the phone?"
Wang Mo thought for a while: "Let's use penguin."
He didn't bother to register a second phone number.
Yang Yiwen sighed secretly in his heart. He was still thinking about getting closer to Xilou's phone number and trying to get closer to him. After all, he knew that Xilou's influence in China was far from fairy tales. Even the one-night 404 incident at a major forum proved that Xilou had a great background. If I can have a good relationship with Xilou, then in terms of children's books, I will definitely be able to go sideways in the future, and there is no need to walk on thin ice anymore.
But now it seems that Xilou did not give him this opportunity.
After calming down, Yang Yiwen said: "It's like this. The World's Fairy Tales Encyclopedia, this book is going to be revised."
"A complete collection of fairy tales from around the world?"
Wang Mo was stunned, what?
Yang Yiwen explained: "Internationally, there is a children's literature association. This association collects children's books, cartoons, movies, TV series, etc. from all over the world, selects the best and discards the dross. Then it regularly releases the latest products. Books or animations, movies, etc. suitable for children.
It can be said that dozens of countries around the world, including China, all recommend reading books, animations, and TV movies to their children based on its standards. "
Wang Mo was stunned: "How prestigious is this Children's Literature Association?"
In the past life, there seemed to be no such association in the world.
Even if there is something similar, it is just an empty shell organization with a false name.
It is incredible that the Children's Literature Association of Blue Star can influence the official recognition of almost most countries and regions around the world.
"Yes."
Yang Yiwen replied: "Because it is truly for the sake of children. Anyone in any association is a world-renowned fairy tale king or an artist with both virtue and art. Every children's work selected is a classic among classics. Otherwise, the whole world will not be convinced.”
Wang Mo: "Then what do you mean by re-editing the World's Fairy Tales?"
Yang Yiwen said: "The World's Fairy Tales Collection is a children's storybook compiled by the Children's Literature Association. It collects the most classic fairy tales in the world and has influenced hundreds of millions of children around the world. In order to adapt to the development of the times, this fairy tale collection is published every It will be re-edited every ten years. Some outdated and outdated fairy tales will be removed and some influential fairy tales from this decade will be added.
This year marks the tenth year of revision.
It can be said that if a certain fairy tale writer's work can be included in the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia", it will definitely be a great event, and this fairy tale writer will also become famous all over the world. "
! ! !
When Wang Mo heard this, his eyebrows jumped sharply.
He somewhat understood the huge significance.
The "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" published by the Children's Literature Association is equivalent to a global guide for children's fairy tales. As long as this book is revised, it will be available to children all over the world!
How influential is it?
Global in nature!
Wang Mo couldn't even imagine how big the global circulation of "World's Fairy Tales" would be. After all, according to the reputation of the Children's Literature Association, I am afraid that it will become a must-buy book for parents, kindergartens, elementary schools, etc. all over the world.
It’s so scary!
As Yang Yiwen said, as long as a certain fairy tale writer's work is selected, it will definitely become famous all over the world in a short time. He even became a world-class fairy tale king.
And this work will be around for ten years!
Ten years!
It is enough to influence an entire generation.
What an honor!
What a pride!
How much prestige is this... This is what Wang Mo is most excited about.
No honor or pride is as attractive to him as prestige.
He was able to gain three million reputations among Chinese children with his "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" before. But what if this work is available to the whole world? How much reputation should it have?
Eight million?
Ten million?
Or twenty million?
And this is the kind of reputation a piece of work can get.
What if it were two, three, or more fairy tales? How much reputation will it get?
Wang Mo didn't dare to think any further.
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down: "Mr. Yang, have any of our fairy tale writers had their works selected into the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia" in the past?"
Yang Yiwen made a wry smile: "No."
Wang Mo was stunned: "Not even one?"
Yang Yiwen: "Yes."
Wang Mo: "Is there a shady story?"
Yang Yiwen: "Probably not. There are also people from China in the Children's Literature Association. If there is something shady, the news will definitely be revealed."
Wang Mo: "..."
After hearing this, Wang Mo even hoped that there would be a shady story. It sounds sadder to have no shady than to have shady.
Yang Yiwen: "Well, that's why parents were worried about our fairy tales before. The "World's Fairy Tales" contains a hundred fairy tales, but none of us were selected. It's really embarrassing.
Of course, we have never given up our efforts. Last time we revised it, we sent ten fairy tales. During the last revision, we sent fifteen fairy tales. In the end, there was even a fairy tale that reached the third review stage and narrowly missed being included. This also means that our fairy tales are making little progress.
This time, I am the most confident. Because I want to send all five of your fairy tales to Teacher Xilou. The quality of these five fairy tales of yours is top-notch, and they are second to none in terms of creativity, educational significance, and philosophy of life. I think that based on these fairy tales of yours, at least one of your fairy tales will be included. "
"good!"
Wang Mo immediately replied with one word.
Only a fool would miss such an opportunity.
What particularly excited him the most was that he had previously considered when to go international, but thought the time was not ripe. After all, he is almost completely unknown internationally, and it is too difficult to take the first step.
And now, this great opportunity is right in front of him, how could he not cherish it?
Because as long as his fairy tales are included in the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales", the Children's Literature Association will naturally be the largest publicity agency and channel.
Here, Wang Mo just promised Yang Yiwen to send his fairy tale up.
Internationally, there is a piece of news that has shocked the fairy tale circle around the world.
The Children's Literature Association simultaneously announced on several top social platforms: "The once-in-a-decade revision of the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" has officially begun. This revision will eliminate 20 old and outdated fairy tales from one hundred stories and add them to Twenty of the best short fairy tales of the past decade..."
Information Release.
The global fairy tale circle is in a state of excitement.
Ins, the internationally renowned social platform, is full of comments from netizens from all over the world.
"Hey! Little darlings, your happy moment is here again!"
"Our country's "Sugar Balls" will definitely be selected. It's so beautiful."
"The fairy tales of Abel, the new king of fairy tales in North America, can definitely be included."
"Sarah, a popular fairy tale writer, has many fairy tales that are best-selling around the world. Her works will definitely be included this time."
"..."
There are so many fairy tale writers around the world!
Coupled with ten years of accumulation, the number is even more terrifying.
Many people are world-renowned as popular fairy tale kings, and their works sell well all over the world. Some fairy tales have even become required extracurricular reading for children in some countries, and their stories are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It is no exaggeration to say that there are dozens if not a hundred famous fairy tale writers born in the world in this decade. As for fairy tale writers with ordinary reputations like Chen Yuanfeng, the number is even bigger. Coupled with the already famous fairy tale king. There are thousands of fairy tales created by so many people.
It is too difficult to select only twenty fairy tales from so many fairy tales.
So, following the announcement from the Children's Literature Association.
Fairy tale writers around the world are going crazy.
Everyone hopes that their works will be included.
As long as you are not a fool, you will know what it means for your work to be included in the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia"!
First: name.
Second: profit.
In terms of reputation, as long as the work is included, the name of the relevant fairy tale writer will instantly become famous all over the world, become the top fairy tale king, and even remain famous throughout the ages.
In terms of profit, when a work is included, the fairy tale writer's other books will probably experience an explosive increase in sales, and then make a lot of money.
So whether it's the title or the profit, fairy tale writers don't want to miss this opportunity.
Because there are too many living examples.
"Last time, Oliver in Western Europe was originally a fairy tale writer from a small country, but his last piece of work was included. This made Oliver directly become the king of global fairy tales. Now his fairy tale books are selling well in more than a dozen countries around the world, and they are shining brightly."
"Isn't this the case with Catherine in North America? She was poor before, but now she has become a billionaire after her work was selected."
"For fairy tale writers, this event is an opportunity to soar into the sky!"
"But it's so hard to get selected."
“I don’t know which fairy tale celebrities will be born this time.”
"..."
When there is a wave of fairy tale craze in the world.
China.
Also boiling.
"here we go again?"
"Has ten years passed so quickly? Is it time to revise the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" again?"
"I remember last time, all our fairy tale works were wiped out, right?"
"Not just last time, our fairy tales have never been included in the collection."
"Isn't it too miserable?"
"Well, it doesn't matter if it's a bit miserable. The main thing is that it's embarrassing. Every time my daughter reads "The Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" she always asks why all the fairy tale writers in it are foreigners. I don't know how to respond."
"But I think this time, the fairy tale of Xilou may be selected."
"Yes, Xilou! How could I have forgotten him! Each of the five fairy tales published by Xilou this time is a classic. I don't believe that the Children's Literature Association can still take notice."
"It would be outrageous if even classic fairy tales such as "Ma Liang" and "Scarecrow" cannot be included."
"Come on! Xilou! Be the first fairy tale artist to break out into the world! Win glory for the country!"
"Come on! Xilou! I'm optimistic about you!"
"..."
This time, Xilou has become everyone’s hope.
Even the entire Chinese fairy tale circle became eager.
If Xilou's works can be selected into the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales", they will be proud of themselves.
…
That's it, over time.
Fairy tale circles around the world have all taken action.
Internationally, there is news about fairy tale writers almost every day.
[Today, fairy tale king Lucia appeared in Northern Europe and held a fairy tale signing event]
[Popular fairy tale author Jennifer publishes new work]
[Fairy tale boss Louis appeared at the largest local bookstore to personally promote his works]
[Emily, the top fairy tale writer in North America, claims that as long as you purchase one of his fairy tales, you will get a beautifully signed illustration]
Internationally, almost all fairy tale writers are ready to make a move!
crazy!
It's rising!
Even China, although many people know that Xilou is the strongest competitor. But top Chinese fairy tale writers like Zhao Mingyu, He Weihua, and Liu Chengzhi all produced their most proud works to see if they could create miracles.
There is always a dream.
What if it succeeds?
At this point, this wave of feasts belonging to the global fairy tale circle has come to an end!
