Before leaving, Chen Jiahong took out a sandalwood box and handed it to Zhao Wanqing.
Zhao Wanqing had heard from Xiao Yunhai about his grandfather's temper and didn't refuse. She took it and said sweetly, "Thank you, Grandpa."
This made Chen Jiahong very happy.
When they returned home, it was already nine o 'clock in the evening.
Zhao Wanqing opened the box. Inside was actually a lustrous and translucent imperial green bracelet with a bright luster. Under the illumination of the lights, it was dazzling and dazzling.
As the eldest daughter of Hanhai Film Company, Zhao Wanqing was no stranger to high-end jewelry. She knew that bracelets of this quality were basically nowhere to be seen now.
If it was put on the market, it would immediately cause a mad scramble among the rich ladies. Its value would definitely not be less than 200 million.
Zhao Wanqing handed the wooden box to Chen Xiuzhu and said, "Auntie, this bracelet from Grandpa is too expensive. I can't accept it."
Chen Xiuzhu shook her head and said, "Since my father gave it to you, you should keep it well. It's best to wear it on your wrist. This is him acknowledging your identity as his granddaughter-in-law. Just like Xu Qianqian in the past, she went with Yunhai many times, but your grandfather didn't even look at her. "
"Cough, cough."
When Xiao Qifeng heard Chen Xiuzhu mention Xu Qianqian, he quickly coughed twice and gave Chen Xiuzhu several looks.
Chen Xiuzhu then understood and smiled awkwardly.
Zhao Wanqing said indifferently, "Uncle, Auntie, you don't have to be like this. I know everything about Yunhai and Xu Qianqian. It's also because of Yunhai's infatuation with her that I fell in love with him. I think such a man is the most reliable. "
Chen Xiuzhu was very happy when she heard that and said, "Wan Qing, a beautiful and considerate girl like you can be with Yunhai. He must have cultivated for several lifetimes."
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "It's my blessing to be able to find him."
At this time, Xiao Yunhai and Xiao Yunling walked in together.
Xiao Yunling saw the bracelet in the box and exclaimed, "Heavens, it's so beautiful. I didn't expect Grandfather to have such a treasure. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Grandpa has a lot of treasures. When you get married in the future, you will know. "
Xiao Yunhai wasn't bragging. He had seen with his own eyes that Chen Jiahong had several treasures whose value wasn't below this bracelet.
"You're my little apple. No matter how much I love you, it's never too much …"
"Whose phone is this? The ringtone used was actually my song 'Little Apple'. "
Xiao Yunling laughed and said to Xiao Yunhai, "Big Brother, that seems to be your phone."
"That's not right. My ringtone isn't … Ah, I understand now. So it was you who changed it for me." Xiao Yunhai looked at Xiao Yunling's expression and suddenly realized something. "Hmph, wait until I finish the call, then I'll settle the score with you."
He turned on the phone and saw that it was Xiang Ming calling. He immediately pressed the answer button.
"Hello, Xiang Ming. Why are you calling me so late at night?"
Over the phone, Xiang Ming sounded very anxious as he said, "Boss Xiao, something has happened. Many famous writers in the Writers' Association are criticizing your 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer'. Their words are very unpleasant. Why don't you go online and take a look? "
Xiao Yunhai was shocked and immediately ran to his bedroom.
"The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" was very important to Xiao Yunhai. He needed to rely on it to get the funds to film "Empresses in the Palace". If there was a problem with the sales of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", then Xiao Yunhai could only get a loan or find someone to borrow money.
For Xiao Yunhai, who didn't like to ask for help, this was a very difficult thing to do.
Zhao Wanqing and Xiao Yunling saw that Xiao Yunhai was so anxious. They looked at each other and followed him.
Xiao Yunhai turned on the computer and immediately went to his home page.
Good lord, his comment section had almost become a battlefield. The comments that were criticizing "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" and praising "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" went back and forth.
"What the hell is' The Smiling, Proud Wanderer '? How dare it call itself a new martial arts novel. Pooh, it's a piece of trash. "
"The person above is full of shit. He doesn't know anything and only knows how to spout nonsense. I just want to ask, have you ever read a martial arts novel? "
"That's right. Any martial arts fan who likes martial arts novels can't say anything bad after reading "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" by Yun Huang. Because this book is definitely the pinnacle of martial arts novels in history. "
"The two above must be Yun Huang's fans. They don't know what's good or bad for Yun Huang. I spent two days reading this book and found that there are no good people in it. Other than the main character, all of them are scheming and astute. They like to play tricks. In the end, all of them died. Let me ask, is this book a good book? "
"Did the person above really read it? Did you understand it? If you didn't, please go back and read it again. People with dark hearts will always see the bad side. He didn't see the chivalrous side of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' at all. "
"I strongly request that Yun Huang ban these people. Don't let them spout nonsense anymore."
"Everyone, quickly go and take a look at the famous author's home page. It has his views on martial arts novels."
"Who is Yun Shan Feng?" Xiao Yunhai muttered.
Zhao Wanqing behind him said, "Yun Shan Feng is a very popular author among the younger generation. He wrote 'Nine Heavens', 'Misty Rain Building' and other popular works. Of course, he can't be compared to you. At most, he has sold eight million copies. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "This person is quite good."
After all, he was the real deal, and he was just using it as an excuse.
He opened the young author's home page and saw that it said, "In the second half of 1998, two martial arts novels, 'The Legend of Chu Liu Xiang' and 'Xiao Li's Flying Dagger', appeared out of nowhere and took the top two places in the sales chart. This surprised me."
"I read the beginning of 'The Legend of Chu Liu Xiang' with a heart of worship. I couldn't help but feel disappointed. The sensationalism and deliberately mystifying writing style are really hard to accept. Compared to some of the martial arts novels in the heyday, it's not just a little bit worse. At least those traditional martial arts novels are passable. But these two novels by the author, 'The Outsider', have no literary or artistic value at all. "
"I heard that in these two days, he published 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer'. The promotion was very good. The sales on the first day broke the record. Hehe, a celebrity is a celebrity. His popularity is really high. It's just that 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' is really unbearable. I just read two pages and I couldn't take it anymore. It's another story about the destruction of a family and the revenge of the main character. Can't there be anything new? "
"Light Clouds and Light Winds here advises everyone to leave as soon as possible. Don't be tortured by the characters in the book."
Light Clouds and Light Clouds' article was reposted by more than 20 members of the Writers' Association. They all had many fans. Although the number of fans was far less than Xiao Yunhai's martial arts fans, there were too many authors. Together, they formed a huge force and became popular on the Internet.
After many of their fans saw this article, they all left comments on famous forums.
"Please stop publishing 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' as soon as possible. Don't poison society."
"Previous poster, something's wrong. We should catch the source and ask the Outsider to stop writing martial arts novels. Now that martial arts novels have declined, it's impossible for them to make a comeback. "
"The Outsider actually claimed that his' The Smiling, Proud Wanderer 'will start a new era of martial arts novels. Hehe, this is too much of a boast."
"In this world, there's no need to pay taxes. Naturally, the more the better."
"I heard that the Outsider and Yun Huang are the same person. They're even celebrities. In my opinion, it's better for him to focus on acting and singing. At the very least, the songs he sings are pretty good. "
.....
As the saying goes, public opinion can melt gold. Xiao Yunhai saw that the Writers' Association was sparing no effort in attacking him. He was very angry.
However, although the Writers' Association was a non-official organization, in the eyes of the people of Hua Xia, it was very prestigious.
Moreover, there were many influential figures in the literary world. These people were all people that Xiao Yunhai could not afford to offend.
Therefore, even if Xiao Yunhai wanted to retaliate, he had to think carefully.
"The feeling of being restrained is really unpleasant." Xiao Yunhai sighed helplessly.
Xiao Yunling said angrily, "Why are these people so annoying? To think that I like the works of a few of them. This is really infuriating. "
Zhao Wanqing said, "They're doing this because they saw that your brother's' The Smiling, Proud Wanderer 'is selling so well. Yunhai, what are you going to do? "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "I can't do anything now. The other party is too powerful. The power of one person cannot go against the entire Hua Xia Writers' Association. Since I can't afford to offend them, can't I just hide? Let them do whatever they want. "
Zhao Wanqing said worriedly, "But I'm afraid that it will affect the sales of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer'."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't worry. The charm of 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' is not something that can be defeated with just a few words. By doing this, aren't they also promoting my 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer'? "
"Moreover, it's not like I'm not doing anything. Since I can't go against them head-on, then I'll use my song to show my sincerity. "
"Use your song to show your sincerity?" Zhao Wanqing looked at Xiao Yunhai in confusion.
"That's right. I'm going to write a song about Wuxia and post it on Jiu Jiu Music. Firstly, it'll be a reply to them. Secondly, it'll be a promotion for 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer'. Hehe, in the online music industry, even if all the people from the Writers' Association come together, they won't be my match. "Xiao Yunhai said confidently.
"Then do you have any ideas for your song?"
"Of course. It'll be called 'Martial Spirit of Heaven and Earth'. "
In his previous life, this song 'Martial Spirit of Heaven and Earth' was the theme song for the Central Movie Channel's special feature, 'Wuxia Movie Character Chronicles'. Its bold melody and grand lyrics made Xiao Yunhai's blood boil when he heard it.
