Chapter 409 is ready
"Daily Express" has a novel series today.
"Let me see, whose work is today?" Kane has achieved fame.
Relying on the writing fee and the annual copyright income, it is no problem to get forty Dabuli in the annual summary. The unit is pounds.
Paris is considered middle class if it exceeds 50,000 pounds, which means that Kane van Zesestone can already buy himself decent clothes.
Da Ying is a well-known troublemaker, and one-third of the border issues around the world are related to him. One of the few advantages is that it has invented a pretty good-looking clothing system.
Kane, except for the hot summer days, wear a windbreaker in spring, autumn and winter. For hot spots, wear a single-sided windbreaker, and for cold spots, wear a velvet windbreaker, uniformly brown and black.
Then, push the Panama hat down and stand up the collar. Kane also likes to haunt the streets at dusk, even when meeting the editor, and seems to have truly joined a mysterious religion.
It is precisely for this reason that personal "charm" adds a bit of evil appeal to Kane's works. Many readers believe that Kane's Cthulhu short stories have the shadow of autobiography...
"Call of Cthulhu? The great horror novelist Mr. Gu Lu has finally returned to the field he is good at." Kai En suppressed his urge to shout Cthulhu for candy at the door of the bookstore.
I bought some curry and ingredients at the supermarket and drove home. Kane's apartment was in an excellent location in London, but the interior decoration was just - let's put it this way, he could directly charge the admission fee and use it for visiting exhibitions.
In the final analysis, humans are also animals. The nature of animals is that they will continue to follow the path that provides benefits, which is also called path dependence. Kane already has some magic gold, and since it can increase the sales of his works, the situation is aggravated.
Kane couldn't wait to start reading. His senses were similar to Yao Xiaoju's, feeling the authentic flavor of the work.
After reading the thirty thousand words, Kane was filled with excitement. I was deeply impressed by two details in the book -
[Regarding these mysterious criminal accomplices, the police did not ask for any consistent descriptions, and the clues they obtained mainly came from an extremely old Mestisso His name is Castro, and he claims to have taken a boat to a foreign port and had conversations with the immortal pagan leaders in the mountains of China...]
The above is the original text, Gu Lu has not changed it. Call of Cthulhu does have a description of Chinese immortality (immortality) paganism, but I don’t know what the prototype of Love Craft is.
It’s just that Gu Lu added a little something at the end of the article. The protagonist in the story is a Christian. Therefore, the representatives of paganism in the article are religions other than Christianity.
“The Yin-Yang Fish and the Tai Chi Yin-Yang are the only philosophies left behind by human beings who have faced the indescribable without going crazy?” Kane was very concerned about the passage with only two strokes. One of the world builders of Cthulhu, he is very cautious about adding any elements. This paragraph also expresses the core of Cthulhu. Ordinary people cannot understand the ancient gods, cannot look directly at them, and cannot talk about them...
The translation of Yin and Yang in English is Yin and Yang, and Tai Chi is Taiji. "Taichi" Tai Chi is a type of Chinese Kung Fu with a completely different meaning. Generally speaking, the British guy Kane can understand the translation of Yin Yang Tai Chi.
Another detail is - why not Weymouth or Bournemouth? Kane felt a little disappointed.
In the Cthulhu story, small towns are xenophobic and residents discriminate against outsiders. And his hometown, Weymouth, is even rejected by himself. It is simply the perfect place for the story!
In comparison, the several stages where this story takes place, San Francisco and the Unnamed Sea, are a bit worse.
"It's also very good. Mr. Gu Lu finally showed the most important god in the series, the sleeping god Cthulhu. The world view is more magnificent." Kane thought about it.
After four or five years of development, various settings in Gu Lu have been improved by subsequent authors.
For example, Miskatonic University, the most photographed University of Michigan, is also a setting often chosen by writers such as Kane.
The University of Michigan is at the top of the world in disciplines such as mysticism, history, geology, biology, and engineering. Then there will be a steady flow of talent to mental hospitals and cemeteries every year!
There is a small independent game about Cthulhu in the UK called "UM Simulator".
Kane looked at the rows of sculptures on the table, all of which were custom-made by him such as the Ancient One, the Deep One, Dagon, the Lord in Yellow and so on. Dim lights were cast on the ceiling, and his head Anyone who visits his home will feel terrified.
“The human silhouette, the octopus-like head with many tentacles, the gelatinous body scales, the giant claws, and the narrow wings are quite cute.” Kane summarized Cthulhu The appearance features, I am determined to customize a peripheral tomorrow.
To be honest, Kane really brings Cthulhu into reality. You must know that there are many Cthulhu believers in the story of "Call of Cthulhu". They kneel down with the statue of Cthulhu. Look at Kane's actions. , just...
"Still maintaining the same level as "At the Mountains of Madness."
"The King of Cthulhu Is Calling" written by Kane in a column announced the return of Gu Lu.
For a while, all the British writers or film and television screenwriters who had eaten this bowl of rice stood up to express their welcome.
[We all know that the Cthulhu series is the most unique horror series in the UK. Likewise, we should know that its creator is Gu Lu. 】Screenwriter of the British drama "The Mist".
[Gu Lu’s Cthulhu series inherits the classical tradition of English literature focusing on plot and atmosphere, and reflects the fear of the unknown deep in the human soul! "Call of Cthulhu" is as much a work of fiction as a documentary report from decades ago. ] Costa Book Award organizing committee judge.
[What he requires of himself is not just to attract readers and tell a horror story from the last century. Rather, it is used as a contrast to emphasize what is lost in contemporary society with the development of science and technology. His reflections on life are a very good writer in popular literature. ] "Daily Mail" book review column.
Wait a minute, some of these people came forward voluntarily, some were called by Yao Xiaoju to build momentum, and some were called by Kane.
There are too many people carrying the colorful sedans.
Even passers-by who had not paid attention to works on this subject before were attracted - look at these reviews, what's going on?
"Inheriting the British classical tradition? Is our country's classical tradition the writing method of Shakespeare?" "A horror novel written by a Chinese to fight discrimination represents Britain? Don't be too outrageous!" "What kind of tricks can horror novels be written?" and other comments .
Gu Lu’s return was so successful that he even made the cake bigger.
The journalist who had some good intentions even went to Weymouth, wanting to ask the current governor of Weymouth what he thought...
Killing is even more heartbreaking!
Most of the feedback from readers is good. Of course, there are also complaints. The legendary Cthulhu, the ruler of the old days, was actually hit and killed by a ship-not that he was killed, because in the end it was explained that the gel General material reorganization.
Many writers joined in, and the old gods written later became more and more powerful. For example, Hastur, the king in yellow created by Kane, was extremely powerful.
"Daily Express" is also a winner, once again gaining great popularity!
Yao Xiaoju is also refusing various activities because many writers invite Gu Lu to participate in salons. Regarding this point, he had an exchange with Brother Xiao Gu and would not participate in any such salons abroad.
"Okay - what is the purpose of collecting this data?" Yao Xiaoju asked and immediately added, "If it is not convenient to tell you, you don't have to tell me."
Hearing this question, Gu Lu sighed. , this is not what he wanted to pretend, but the stage was handed to him on his own initiative.
Things were so and so, Gu Lu told the "practical incident" simply and clearly.
Oops, it gave Brother Gu another chance to show off, and Yao Xiaoju thought of that special subway card.
"Just some feedback on the Internet is not detailed enough, right?" Yao Xiaoju suggested, "Do you need offline information?"
"I wonder if it can drive relevant offline information." Gu Lu was a little unsure, mainly because he didn't know Da Ying's spending habits.
"There are a lot of discussions on Twitter about "Call of Cthulhu". After all, the entire series is called the Cthulhu series." Yao Xiaoju said, "Whether it is there or not, I will go to Chinatown to check it out."
"London also has a Chinatown?"
"Of course, Soho in Westminster is London's Chinatown." Yao Xiaoju suddenly said, "I seem to remember Foreigner's Town in both fog and fog?"
< br>"That's what happened." Gu Lu responded.
The conversation suddenly came to a halt. Yao Xiaoju seemed to have no words to continue on the sudden topic, and Gu Lu didn't say anything either.
When Brother Yao wants to say something, he will suddenly think about him. Just wait a moment to hear what you really want to express.
Sure enough, a few seconds later Yao Xiaoju said, "Brother Gu, you have such a high creative talent, but don't become a scholar. That's not what you should do, brother Gu!"
"Hahaha, Brother Yao. Don't worry. I'm still far behind those powerful researchers. I know myself." Gu Lu felt that he was more valuable as a vanguard.
The two stopped chatting and hung up the phone.
That night, Yao Xiaoju compiled the first information and sent it to Gu Lu.
Excellent efficiency.
Posted in "Call of Cthulhu", search for the Tai Chi Yin and Yang diagram.
"Knowing Chinese Tai Chi, who is the inventor of Tai Chi? The only person in the world who can look directly at the ancient gods and still remain rational, it is hard to imagine what a genius mind he has."
"I searched Tai Chi Yin and Yang on Google, one black and one white, I think it's quite beautiful."
"I remember Zhang Yimou's work "Shadow" ow)", what does it mean?"
"Although the novel is fictional, the Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish seems to be the first picture in China, and it has the same characteristics as Monla Lisa's smile. The elusive beauty. It has been cited by many countries, including the national flag and air force emblem of South Korea, the flag and military emblem of Outer Mongolia, and the air force emblem of the Lion City. ”
"It seems that the meaning is very complicated, with the meaning of chaos - isn't this the same as the indescribable chaos of the ancient god expressed by Cthulhu?"
...
That's it, Gu Lu looks at it There are more than a hundred of them.
