Chapter 431 An unprecedented shocking PK!
Chinese netizens don’t know much about the international situation.
But in China, netizens pay attention to the dynamics of the fairy tale circle almost every day.
On the official Weibo of the Children's Literature Association, there are a large number of comments from netizens almost all the time.
"My dear, please support Xilou's fairy tale more when you vote."
"This time, Xilou's "Ma Liang" will definitely be selected, right?"
"I think "Monkey Fishing for the Moon" is the best, easy to understand."
"It's still Scarecrow, it has the fun of childhood and the sadness of adulthood."
"..."
For netizens, at least one fairy tale in Xilou will be selected this time. Because in their opinion, Xilou's five fairy tales are no worse than the fairy tales included in the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" in any aspect.
Even many fans of Xilou who know how to circumvent the firewall came to Instagram and left messages.
“Please give your support to Xilou.”
"Please appreciate the "Magic Brush Ma Liang" in the west building."
"The complete collection of Xilou's works, please give it a thumbs up."
"..."
The enthusiasm of the fans is indeed boundless.
It's just that these fans are disappointed. In China, Xilou's reputation is at its peak. But internationally, Xilou is not famous at all. On Instagram, thousands of netizens from all over the world cheer for their country’s fairy tale artists every day. These people are far superior in numbers and enthusiasm.
After all, this is the home field.
Therefore, the comments from Xilou fans did not cause any splash.
Wang Mo also heard about the fans' actions, but he didn't pay much attention. Because no matter how enthusiastic the fans are, they cannot have an impact on the Children's Literature Association.
Which fairy tale works can be selected this time, the final decision has to be made by the association.
If fans can influence the final collection of works, wouldn’t it become a competition between fans?
This is impossible!
On this day, Yang Yiwen found him again: "Teacher Xilou, all five of your works have been submitted."
"Um."
Wang Mo thought for a while and asked: "How many works have been submitted in total by China?"
Yang Yiwen said: "There are 21 stories in total, and they are all the most popular fairy tales among children in the past ten years."
Wang Mo: "Is there any limit on the number of submitted works?"
Yang Yiwen: "That's not true, but it's useless if you submit too many works. After all, if the quality is not up to standard, it will make people from the Children's Literature Association laugh in vain. After all, it is not a project that wins by quantity. But if it is a national outstanding work If there are enough, you can also submit more works. The news I heard is: North America has submitted more than a hundred fairy tales this time. Each one can be called a classic. But there is nothing to envy, after all, other people's fairy tales The industry is already extremely developed. During the last revision, six works from North America were selected. I guess it won’t be much different this time.”
That's true.
Wang Mo thought for a moment and then asked: "When will the results be available?"
Yang Yiwen took the trouble to reply: "Generally speaking, it will last for two months, during which there will be three voting screenings, and 20 works will finally be selected."
"Um."
Wang Mo said he understood.
He plans to wait for two months and then use "World Fairy Tales" as a springboard to start an international career.
But.
Dreams are good.
The reality is very cruel.
Only ten days have passed.
Yang Yiwen contacted him again on Penguin: "Teacher Xilou, things are not going well..."
Wang Mo: "What's the matter?"
Yang Yiwen: "I just got the news. Four of your five fairy tale works were rejected in the initial audition, and only "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" advanced to the second round."
Um?
Wang Mo stared at the message from Yang Yiwen and frowned slightly.
After a while, he replied: "Have you ever asked why?"
Wang Mo felt a little depressed. He originally thought that at least two or three of the five fairy tales he took out would be included. After all, they are the most classic fairy tales of China in the past life.
But now, four articles have been rejected in the first round.
Yang Yiwen said: "I asked, and the reply they gave was: the four fairy tales you published were all too short and have not been verified by time, so they were removed. If it weren't for the repercussions of "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" in the country It was so strong that it was probably eliminated in the first round. However, considering its good response among Chinese children, it barely entered the second round. But judging from the other party's reply, it is likely to enter the third round. They will also be eliminated during the round.”
"..."
After seeing Yang Yiwen's words, Wang Mo fell into a long silence.
Seeing that Wang Mo didn't reply, Yang Yiwen quickly said: "Teacher Xilou, don't think too much. In my opinion, your fairy tale can definitely be selected. It's not a quality problem. It's just that the time of publication was too short, so it wasn't selected." Selected. Even if you are kicked off this time, you will be 100% selected next time.”
next time?
That was ten years later.
Wang Mo couldn't wait that long.
In ten years, day lilies have become cold.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Mo asked: "Mr. Yang, do you know the specific criteria for judging by the Children's Literature Association?"
Yang Yiwen: "I understand that the review should be based on three aspects: first, the subjective comments of the review team of the Children's Literature Association; second, the spread and reputation of the fairy tale internationally; third, the sales volume of the fairy tale. "
Wang Mo nodded secretly.
If based on these three standards, his fairy tales are indeed not worthy of evaluation.
The first point is fine, but the second and third points are probably not even comparable to several domestic fairy tale writers. The publication time is too short, which is his biggest shortcoming.
It seems that we have to find another way.
…
However, Wang Mo did not expect that before he could figure out a solution, Chinese netizens would already be shaking the world!
There is no airtight wall in the world.
What's more, this revision of "The Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" has attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of Chinese netizens!
So soon, many people in the industry got the news: Four of the five fairy tales in Xilou were deleted!
That’s okay, after all, one more article made it to the second round.
However, just three days later, people in the industry learned the inside story again: the last fairy tale in Xilou, "Ma Liang, the Magic Pen" was also eliminated. So far, all five fairy tales in Xilou have been wiped out!
Wow~~~
Such shocking news was finally unable to be contained in the industry and was leaked to the Internet.
moment.
Chinese netizens were in an uproar.
"What? All the works in Xilou have been eliminated?"
"How can it be?"
"I do not believe!"
"What a liar. These fairy tales in Xilou are all classics among classics. Even I, an adult, have learned many principles of life. How come all such fairy tales were scrapped in the second round?"
"There is definitely a shady story! I used to think that the Children's Literature Association was the fairest, but now I don't think so!"
"No wonder not even one of our fairy tales was included in the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" before. Now it seems that there must be a problem! And there is a big problem!"
"..."
Netizens are excited.
Netizens were angry.
Fairy tales like West Tower have been eliminated, how can there be no shady plot?
Coupled with the pent-up frustration and resentment from the past, many people can no longer hold their breath.
Countless netizens all rushed to the Internet and came to the Children's Literature Association's Instagram.
half an hour.
In just half an hour, crazy Xilou fans flooded the comment section.
"Shady story!"
"Shady story!"
"Shady story!"
"..."
Even in order for foreign netizens to understand, fans almost all comment in English.
The overwhelming shady scenes and violent traffic directly put this topic on the top ten of Instagram's hot searches.
Now!
The topic exploded!
International netizens who did not understand the reason thought that there was really something shady and raised questions one after another.
After all, in the minds of many people, children's books are the most intolerant of shady stories. If the Children's Literary and Art Association is corrupted, the future of the children will be ruined.
No one can tolerate this!
However, the Children's Literature Association has not yet spoken, and many international fairy tale writers have lost their composure.
A famous fairy tale writer in North America: "I can swear on my life that there is absolutely no shady story in the Children's Literature Association. Fans of Xilou, right? I know your idol comes from the East, and maybe his fairy tale works look very special to you. Okay. But please calm down and don’t act impulsively. Because this time the selection of fairy tales is for the whole world. The fairy tales in Xilou may be good in your country, but they may not be good internationally."
A fairy tale writer from Western Europe: "Every fairy tale selected into the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia" is responsible for more than one billion children around the world. I know China, which is a mysterious oriental country with a long history. But your fairy tales have always been They all have strong regional factors, and if they are put internationally, they may not be accepted by children in other countries."
A fairy tale editor in Northern Europe: "I would like to advise fans of Xi Lou, stop jumping around, and don't embarrass your country. The Children's Literature Association has always been the most fair and impartial. To be honest, I have just read a few of Xi Lou's articles. Fairy tales, in my opinion, except for "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" are not bad in creativity, the other fairy tales are completely inconsistent with the aesthetics of Western children. But even "Ma Liang, the Magic Brush" can only be considered good at the international level. There are many better fairy tales.”
These words made Xilou fans furious.
In addition to being their idol, Xilou is also their hero. Now that it is so disdained by these international fairy tale writers, of course everyone is not to be outdone.
"It's all bullshit!"
"You said that the fairy tale in Xilou is not very good. Let's have a competition."
"That's right, take it out for a walk, whether it's a mule or a horse. Don't be a quarrel."
"Do you dare to have a head-to-head PK with Xilou? Everyone will come up with a new fairy tale and have a serious fight."
"You have to be able to win the West Tower to be considered worthy."
"..."
This fairy tale writer from Western Europe is also tough: "What is there to be afraid of? To be honest, with my talent, my works are not qualified to be selected into the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia", but compared with Xilou from your country, I I'm still very confident. If Xilou is willing, I wouldn't mind having a fairy tale showdown with him."
The writer's name is Frederick and he comes from Danmai.
Selling Dan is known as the Fairy Tale Kingdom in Blue Star. This small country has produced countless world-class fairy tale kings, and many popular fairy tales all come from here. It can be said that almost a quarter of the fairy tales in the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" are the works of Danmai writers.
Although Frederick's reputation in Denmark is average, it is still very famous internationally. At the same time, he also has a high sense of superiority in the fairy tale kingdom.
At this moment, when he saw Xilou's fans provoking him, and this so-called Xilou came from an Eastern country where none of his works had been selected into the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales" for decades, he almost looked full of disdain.
What grade? !
Dare to compete with him?
However, Frederick discovered a business opportunity. China is a big country with a population of more than one billion. If he can defeat this fairy tale king in the hearts of everyone in China, wouldn't it be possible to open up the Chinese market in one fell swoop and allow his works to fully bloom in the vast land of China?
Therefore, Frederick immediately agreed to the challenge from West Tower fans!
For money, Frederick, a noble fairy tale writer from the fairy tale kingdom, rarely accepted this PK.
A sure-win PK, and you can get huge fame and fortune if you win, who wouldn't do it?
But others are not stupid either.
Soon, another North American fairy tale writer responded: "Come on, come on, since you say Xilou is so powerful, then I will also compete with him."
When the second person appears, the others will not be far behind.
soon.
It was the third fairy tale writer: “I’ll come too!”
The fourth fairy tale writer: "Count me in!"
It's just that none of these fairy tale writers are top-notch internationally. They know that their works are not included in the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales", so they all want to gain popularity on this matter.
Still the same sentence: PK is bound to win, whoever wins wins.
really.
The heat exploded.
Four international children's writers launched a PK against Xilou from China. There is even a Danmai from the Fairy Tale Kingdom.
This scene directly made many netizens excited.
"Wow, exciting."
"Frederick also joined in?"
"What is the origin of this Xilou? Is it so prestigious?"
"What a shame. Can't you see? They all want to humiliate Xilou and make Xilou's fans arrogant and say that the Children's Literature Association has a shady background. Is it okay now? Have you hit a brick wall?"
"I guess Xilou can't even win against anyone."
"Don't underestimate it, it is certain that he will not win. As long as Xilou fails by then, it will be confirmed that his works are indeed not qualified to be selected into the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales". By then, Xilou and his fans will definitely be disgraced."
"..."
Many people originally thought that this was just an ordinary duel.
It will not affect the real inner circle of fairy tales.
However.
No one expected that as the popularity further increased, at this time, the Children's Literature Association said: "Thank you everyone for your attention to children's fairy tales. Our association has always adhered to the principles of fairness, work, and openness to select children's fairy tales for children around the world. The best fairy tale works, giving children the best childhood. There will never be any shady stories or private messages. We have also paid attention to the PK between Xilou and several fairy tale writers. After our urgent meeting to discuss, if this time the two sides If the works are excellent enough, our association will consider selecting some fairy tale works that meet the requirements from the new works of both parties and add them to the revision of the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia"."
boom!
The whole network was shaken.
Many people were shocked by this announcement from the Children's Literature Association.
No one thought that a duel between ordinary fairy tale writers would actually attract the attention of the Children's Association and even select works from it.
"Oh my God, really?"
"Isn't it?"
"If it is true, then this PK will be exciting."
While netizens were shocked, fairy tale writers around the world could no longer hold their breath.
Originally, it was just four fairy tale writers competing against Xilou, but now it has directly caused a stir.
"I'm going to have a PK with Xilou."
"Teacher Xilou, how about you compete with me?"
"Mr. Xilou, I happened to have a new article recently, please enlighten me!"
Of course, these people are not top fairy tale gurus.
Until another fairy tale writer from North America joined in: "I, Lucas, hope to be taught by Mr. Xilou."
Lucas!
North America's top fairy tale king, even one of his fairy tales was selected into the "World Fairy Tales" ten years ago and has become a classic that has spread all over the world.
Such a fairy tale writer actually joined this PK.
my God!
Of course they didn't know that Lucas joined because he had recently created one of his most proud fairy tales. Judging from the quality, Lucas was 60% certain to be selected into the "Encyclopedia of World Fairy Tales". It's just that time is too short, and even if I publish it now, I still won't meet the selection requirements, so I keep it in my hands.
Originally, Lucas wanted to suppress the fairy tale and publish it after one or two years, and then compete for the revision of the fairy tale ten years later.
But when he saw the announcement from the Children's Literature Association, he was moved.
ten years!
Too long!
If he takes advantage of this opportunity and can get his work recognized by the Children's Literature Association, it will be equivalent to ten extra years for him.
Lucas certainly wouldn't miss it.
In fact, there are many top fairy tale kings like Lucas around the world. It was only in the past two years that they were inspired to write good works. However, due to time factors, they were not published.
But now, seeing Lucas challenge an unknown Xilou, everyone has realized it.
What are you waiting for?
Dan sells.
Joshua: "I recently wrote a new work, and I would like Mr. Xilou to taste it."
Lancelot: "Hey! Xilou, my friend, I hope my new fairy tale can compete with you."
Ilaya: "Friend from the East, Mr. Xilou, I hope we can have in-depth exchanges on our works."
…
North America.
Gabriel: "Xilou, please give me some advice."
Steven: "Mr. Xilou, please enlighten me."
…
Western Europe.
Brettlin: "Mr. Xilou from the East, let's have a chat."
Jason: "My friend Xilou, let's have a duel."
…
crazy!
Internationally, the whole Instagram is going crazy!
The fairy tale king who rides all over the horse!
These top international fairy tale writers who are usually aloof, now actually all challenge an unknown person from the East. They were even sure that many people didn't even know who Xilou was, so they initiated a PK request to the other party.
"Mom."
"God!"
"Jesus is up there."
"Please, is this true?"
"..."
All told, more than 20 fairy tale writers around the world have challenged Xilou. Eight of these fairy tale writers are world-class fairy tale kings. Almost all of their works have been selected into the "World Fairy Tale Encyclopedia" before. Their works represent the height of today's fairy tale circle.
So after seeing this scene, countless netizens around the world were stunned in front of their computers.
"It's unprecedented for so many top fairy tale bosses to challenge an unknown person!"
"Are they crazy? Are they all crazy?"
But soon, someone analyzed it.
"Obviously, the fairy tale kings are dispatched collectively. It is not that Xilou is stronger, but that these masters all regard challenging Xilou as a springboard. Their real purpose is: "World Fairy Tale King". My guess is that the masters are most likely to They all have a brand new fairy tale in their hands, but they didn’t publish it because they didn’t have enough time. But now the announcement of the Children’s Literature Association has given the masters an opportunity to put it before their eyes, how can they not be excited?”
"That's right. It seems that we all have the opportunity to see a new batch of top-notch fairy tales."
"I'm laughing so hard. I guess the people in Xilou are confused at this moment: Who am I? Where am I? What am I going to do? Hahahaha... More than 20 fairy tale writers from around the world challenged him. This scene is so shocking. Yes."
"Xi Lou has already been frightened."
"Anyway, Xilou has done a good thing this time, allowing so many top fairy tale kings to release their favorite new works in advance. It seems that children around the world are blessed."
"Do you think Xilou can agree to the challenge?"
"Whether he agrees or not, he has been put on the fire and cannot get down."
"..."
Seeing this scene, international netizens were all happy.
They wanted to know how distressed Xilou looked.
Aren’t you fans asking fairy tale writers to challenge you?
Now comes the challenge!
If you have the guts, take it! ! !
Hahaha! ! !
But in China, Xilou's fans all turned from angry and excited at the beginning to bewildered.
no……
What's going on here?
Although they are very confident in Xilou, and it can even be said that most of them are crazy fans of Xilou, but no matter how confident they are and how blindly they worship Xilou, they still know that facing the challenge of a group of top fairy tale kings in the world, Xilou has no hope of winning.
What's more, they knew that Xilou was not a professional fairy tale writer yet.
Perhaps those previous fairy tales had already wiped out Xilou’s background.
It's over.
Get rid of it!
Ma De, who knew that one angry word from their fans could make so many international fairy tale kings jump out and scream to challenge Xilou?
These people are so shameless.
But no matter how shameless the other party is, since the other party has issued a challenge, Xilou must respond, otherwise he will be finished.
But goose...
Agreeing to PK is tantamount to asking for trouble. Xilou may have no problem winning against a fairy tale writer like Frederick, but winning against Lucas? Win Joshua? Win Lancelot? What nonsense!
If you don't agree to the PK, Xilou will definitely become an international laughing stock. Don’t even have the courage to challenge? Go back and play in the mud.
dilemma……
What should we do now?
