Chapter 280

While making commercial investments, Martin also completed the creation of the Xianxia novel"Zhu Xian".

One and a half months, 1.2 million words.

This kind of speed makes Wang Shuo speechless.

"You kid is like a human typewriter, don’t you have to come up with a plot?"

"The plot is in your mind, just transfer it out"

"You are awesome, I am willing to give you the upper hand."

Wang Shuo is really convinced.

He has written a total of 30,000 words in this month and a half. He has revised it over and over again, but he is still not satisfied. He has given up.

"Why do I feel like I've been tricked by you? If I had known you were such a fast player, I wouldn't have compared myself to you."

Wang Shuo watched depressingly as Martin printed out the manuscripts one by one and compiled them into volumes.

He then said:"I will introduce you to a few publishing houses. When the time comes, we will also release our bet and treat it as a book. Promoted to you"

"Then I would like to thank you in advance!"Martin laughed.

"You're not polite at all. Maybe I'm just being polite. You know how embarrassing it would be for me to admit defeat in such a public way!"Wang Shuo said.

Martin said:"Then I can't be polite anymore. If you don't settle the matter with words first, what will you do if you go back on your word?

Then he patted Wang Shuo on the shoulder and said,"It's not shameful to lose to me. My"Harry Potter" has set sales records in countless countries around the world. What you lost to is the world's No. 1 best-selling author.""

"You Americans are so immodest."Wang Shuo muttered.

Martin laughed loudly and said:"I am telling the truth, there is nothing to be modest about."

A week later,"Zhu Xian" was released in major bookstores in China.

There was this sentence on the book cover:"The best-selling novel king Martin Meyers' debut Chinese style novel has made the famous Chinese writer Wang Shuo fall to his knees."

One sentence immediately piqued the interest of book lovers.

Who is Wang Shuo?

"The leader of"avant-garde novels", the 1970s and 1980s were his most productive period of creation and influenced a generation. His novels have even become popular culture in northern China, and the classic dialogues in his novels have been imitated by countless people; and His ridiculing and ironic writing techniques have been learned by many authors.

But such a character actually admits that he is inferior to a foreign writer?

Someone opened the title page and saw the"Preface" written by Wang Shuo for Zhu Xian.

In" In the"Preface", Wang Shuo clearly wrote about the bet with Martin, and finally said:

(abde)"……Although we didn't set a bet at the time, and that guy Martin didn't care about the bet, it was just for fun, but we Chinese men spit out every word and nail it, so how can we make foreigners look down on us, so we have this preface. If it can help I would also be happy for my foreigner friend to sell a few more books!

The bet between Wang Shuo and Martin was quite interesting among literati, and attracted many reporters to interview. Wang

Shuo said in the interview:"Don't think that I am unconvinced by losing, I am convinced." Although Martin is younger than me, he is very knowledgeable and agile. Do you know how long it took him to write this six-volume set of"Zhu Xian"?"

Wang Shuo raised one finger, then raised a second finger, and then raised it halfway.

A reporter guessed:"Is it a year and a half? Then he created it in advance. Looking at it this way, Wang Shuo, you are not a loser.

Wang Shuo's eyes widened:"What a year and a half? If it takes a year and a half, I can be so convinced?" This guy only used 1.2 million words in a month and a half, can you imagine? Another reporter said:"

How is it possible? It can't be a ghostwriter. At least two or three ghostwriters can be so fast!" Wang

Shuo's eyes widened again:"I saw him typing word by word with my own eyes. In order to catch up, I went to Martin's room every night and watched him type." Oh, by the way, sometimes Jiang Wen goes too, he can testify!"

Jiang Wen?

The reporters suddenly became even more excited. This news actually had a"side story"!?

So a group of people went to interview Jiang Wen again.

"Yes, Martin is amazing. He not only understands our Chinese culture, but he also conceives plots incredibly quickly. When we were chatting, I brought a copy of"Ten Tales of a Night" to introduce to him. This guy flipped through it at that time, then pointed to one of the articles"The Thief of Officials" and wrote a script for me on the spot."

"I have decided to make this script into a movie, yes yes, I know I am still in lockdown. But Martin has already filed the script, and he said he would let me direct it when I can film it."

"Martin's typing speed is the fastest I have ever seen. Have you ever seen the afterimage of your typing fingers? For him, the story is in his mind. He doesn’t need to think at all. He can just type the plot out. This is a clear proof of his quick thinking."

"Shuozi didn't lose unfairly. I only knew about such a genius in the United States from newspapers before, but now I know what a genius this genius is!!!"

The next day.

Martin was caught by reporters when he visited his newly bought courtyard house.

He patted Gordon on the shoulder who was blocking the reporters,"Man, it's okay. This is the safest country in the world. Let's go." Come over them."

Gordon stepped aside, and reporters surrounded Martin.

Questions were thrown out one after another. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Haha, yes, I met Wang Shuo and Jiang Wen on the plane, and we hit it off right away."

Martin spoke fluent Chinese as soon as he opened his mouth, and the reporters immediately had a collective orgasm.

China in this era needs a sense of identity so much - foreigners can speak Chinese, foreigners can speak cross talk, foreigners like Chinese food, and even foreigners just Saying"Congratulations on getting rich" in Chinese on the Spring Festival can make the official media and ordinary people excited for a long time, and treat them as one of their own.

Many foreigners take advantage of this to make money and deceive girls in China!

And Martin is this He speaks fluent and pure Mandarin, which is not comparable to those liars who speak stumblingly in Chinese.

As soon as he opens his mouth, he is cited as one of his own by many reporters

"I type really fast. In fact, I type English even faster. Do you know how long it took me to write the second"Twilight"? Three weeks!"

"oh~！"

"Amazing!"

"So fast!"

There was a chorus of exclamations of cooperation all around.

"Yes, I wrote a script for Jiang Wen. Mr. Ma Shitu's"The Thief of Officials" was very well written and gave me inspiration."

"Why are you looking for him? Because Jiang Wen is my friend, and he is capable enough to present this script"

"invest? why not!"

"Haha, Shuozi is indeed a man of his word! The bet was just a joke, but he said that since there was no bet, he would help me sell the book, so that was the preface."

"When I return to the United States, I will send him a few bottles of fine wine from my collection to express my gratitude."
