Chapter 81 Big Killer

To Phyllis, Lu Shi was very responsible.

As a student of London Political Science and Economics, he would occasionally fool around with a few words, but for Phyllis, he upholds the principle of seeking truth from facts, knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing.

Fortunately, literature and art are inseparable,

The term "experience" has its corresponding genre in performance, and it is the four words "true feelings" in literature.

It was a fruitful afternoon for Phyllis.

Dell wants to pay for land hours,

Lu Shi waved his hand,

"Phyllis knelt down to me just now, how can I have the nerve to take your money?"

Phyllis' face turned red.

She made a triangle with her hands, "cast a spell" on the landing, and muttered for a while: "Forget it...forget it...forget about that..."

The other three were all amused by Phyllis.

Lu Shi said: "Mr. Dale, there are other reasons for not accepting your money. One is that Phyllis is the heroine of "Roman Holiday", and she is very suitable for the role of Princess Anne. It can be said that she is the one who made "Roman Holiday" Holiday, I want to thank her."

Phyllis was muttering about Lu Shi just now, but now she put on a smiling face,

Well, Professor Lu's speech is still very pleasant.

Dale opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something,

But Lu Shi didn't give him a chance to be humble.

Lu Shi continued: "Second, I won't participate in Felice's subsequent tempering, so how can I ask for reward?"

Phyllis:! ! !

Her face is like the sky in June, it changes as soon as it is said, and the smile disappears,

"Will you not participate again?"

Dell on the side gave a "hmm" and said: "Professor Lu is a master of the experience school. He told me that you should experience more and get in touch with different people and different professions. If possible, it is best to experience those professions yourself." .”

Lu Shi took over the conversation,

"Mr. Dale can arrange this kind of thing. As for me..."

He pointed to the typewriter on the desk,

"I still have to pay for the crazy words I just said~"

This is a joke,

Natsume Soseki and Dell laughed at the same time.

But Phyllis puffed up her face angrily, and said, "It's not just talking out loud! Professor Lu, your novels and poems are so good, and your drama is even more original. Even the professors in Cambridge can't compare to you!"

The girl looked excited.

Her father gave her a strange look, wondering what happened to her daughter today, why her mood changed so much,

Is it a sequela left by the learning experience school?

Puzzled.

Lu Shi asked, "Phyllis, have you read my novels and poems?"

Phyllis nodded repeatedly,

"Seen!"

In fact, she was exposed to "Roman Holiday" first, and then re-watched "There Were None".

But Lu Shi's poetry girl can recite it backwards.

She was worried that Lu Shi would not believe it, so she said eagerly: "Professor Lu, I like your "Answer" the most! 'Despicableness is the passport of the humble, and nobleness is the epitaph of the noble.' It is so well written! "

This paragraph is memorized in a correct way.

Seeing that Felice was getting more and more excited as he talked, Lu Shi hurriedly put down his hands and comforted him, "Okay~Okay~I know~"

Phyllis also realized her gaffe,

She blushed and looked away,

"I'm afraid you won't believe me."

Lu Shi waved his hand,

"Why don't I believe you? If you study acting hard and accumulate acting experience, one day, you will become the core female lead in a drama by relying on your acting skills. At that time, I will definitely join in."

Phyllis' face lit up,

"Then you...then you will write me a poem when the time comes."

That's a good request, but it's a little too much.

Dale frowned,

"Phyllis!"

However, Phyllis, who has always been obedient, didn't seem to hear his father's scolding, and just stared straight at Lu Shi.

Lu Shi smiled and nodded,

"Can."

As soon as these words came out, Phyllis was relieved.

Dale thanked him repeatedly when he landed,

Regardless of whether Lu Shi is willing to fulfill his promise in the future, it is quite a face-saving treatment for Felice today.

Lu Shi sent Dale and his daughter to the door and said goodbye to them.

The two got into the carriage,

Not long after, the carriage disappeared at the end of Buiya Road.

Lu Shi returned to the room, sat down in front of the typewriter again, and thought about the bet with Cavendish.

Natsume Soseki asked: "What are you going to do with "Roger Mystery"? Such a good book, you wouldn't want to hide it?"

Lu Shi said: "Of course it will be published. I will find time to send it to Mr. Wood of the Royal Publishing Bureau tomorrow. However, I still have to decide the content of this fantasy novel. I want to write...whether I want to come up with something special or not." .”

Natsume Soseki couldn't help being speechless for a while.

However, seeing how relaxed and freehand Lu Shi was, he knew that Lu Shi had already figured it out, so he asked, "What do you want to write?"

Lu Shi shook his head,

"Nope."

Natsume Soseki tried hard to resist the urge to roll his eyes,

"Then you still sit on the Diaoyutai?"

Lu Shi said: "It's not that I haven't thought about it, it's just that I have too many ideas, and I don't know which one to choose."

Natsume Soseki really rolled his eyes this time, and complained: "I shouldn't have asked more, asking you is too much for self-confidence. Forget it, I'll write my own book."

With that said, he sat aside and continued to study "I Am a Cat".

Lu Shi fell into deep thought,

The first thing he ruled out was Harry Potter,

As a fantasy work, there is no best-selling series of novels in the world,

But the problem lies in the background of the story. It takes place in modern London. There are too many things like subways, airplanes, cars, and telephone booths, which are difficult to modify.

Lu Shi could write it out, but it would take too much time and effort.

After that, Lu Shi screened out "A Song of Ice and Fire\

,"It is undeniable that this epic work has gained a huge bonus because of the TV series, but even if you only read the novel itself, it is very competitive, otherwise it would not be possible to have such a high sales volume.

The reason why Lu Shi didn't write it was because of the special way of writing "A Song of Ice and Fire"——

POV.

Point-of-View, the point-of-view character writing method, is described in the narrative method of exchanging the third-person point of view of the characters in turn, so as to promote the progress of the story.

This style of writing is not suitable for serialization.

So, in the end, Tolkien's "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings" are left.

But is it necessary to move out such a big killer right away?

Cavendish will cry...

Lu Shi scratched his head,

"Forget it, there is nothing to hesitate. Just give him a happy one."

He typed the name "The Hobbit" on his typewriter.

This novel is actually a fairy tale. After reading the original work, you will know that Tolkien wrote the text in a fresh and immature style, with a joyful and exciting plot, which makes the whole story look like the adventures of the dwarves.

Also, it's not that long,

Lu Shi had translated it, and it was only 100,000 words in Chinese.

Unexpectedly, "The Hobbit" was so popular that the publisher wanted Tolkien to write a sequel, but he could no longer write fairy tales,

And Tolkien, as a professor of linguistics at Oxford, is of course able to take in and out of literature, so he turned those words full of childishness into epics for adults to appreciate.

The shocking "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was born.

After careful consideration, Lu Shi decided to change "The Hobbit" into a fantasy literature work for adults.

Of course, there are still some parts to consider,

Because of the influence of the originator of fantasy "The Ring of the Nibelungen", there are many hints of racial references in "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings".

As a Chinese, Lu Shi couldn't mess around,

Must be modified!

Then there are some settings, which have to be extracted from other books of Tuo Lao.

Lu Shi typed the beginning on the keyboard:

"In a cave underground lived a hobbit..."
