Chapter 1575: Chapter 1276 Chu Kuang’s Pure Literature

The next day, Lin Yuan learned about the news online, and he didn’t expect such a development. Has the dance circle on Blue Star always been this modest?

However, Lin Yuan soon stopped worrying about this matter.

Just like Xie Huaiyu and others understand, the dance ranking will remain the same regardless of whether the people at the top are willing to relinquish their position.

Xian Yu will eventually climb up there.

Wait until those dance competitions officially begin.

It’s just a matter of time and speed.

In fact.

Because the official competitions are being organized, the dances Lin Yuan created have already started to spread their influence.

Tango!

Pole dance!

The robot!

Countless people are practicing!

Many people want to achieve a good result in the official competitions.

That’s the advantage of new dance styles becoming competition projects—Lin Yuan is destined to become the grandmaster with the greatest influence in the dance circle.

Just like how, over the years, the influence of Chu Kuang, Xian Yu, and Shadow has been increasing.

The fan base of these three pen names that Lin Yuan uses is growing more and more across different age groups.

Many children who were exposed to their works in kindergarten are now gradually growing up.

Not to say whether they’ve become adults.

At least they’ve developed the ability to express and even consume, forming some concepts that adults have.

In the dance circle, it will also eventually be like this.

There will be people everywhere influenced by Lin Yuan’s works.

Thinking this way.

Lin Yuan suddenly received a call from Jin Mu:

“Congratulations, boss, I estimate that next month there will be a significant rise in your rank in the dance chart.”

“Mm.”

“Where are you with the new book called ‘Siege’ that you mentioned before?”

“It’s finished.”

Lin Yuan almost forgot about this matter. It was only after Jin Mu reminded him that he remembered:

“I’ll send it to you.”

After Lin Yuan finishes writing, he typically sends his novel to Jin Mu, who then communicates with Silver Blue Books to discuss specific publishing matters, including promotional plans.

“Okay.”

Jin Mu quickly received the manuscript of “Siege.”

After receiving this work, Jin Mu resisted the urge to open it.

It’s not a matter of inconvenience, but though he could be the first reader of Chu Kuang on the computer, he prefers the reading enjoyment brought by the ink fragrance of a paper book.

The manuscript was confirmed accurate.

Jin Mu contacted Silver Blue Books.

The immediate consequence was that the entire pure literature department at Silver Blue Books, from the chief editor to the assistant editors, went crazy with excitement!

“Pure Literature!”

“Chu Kuang is finally writing pure literature!”

“Teacher Chu Kuang finally graces us with his talent!”

“Fantasy!”

“Mystery!”

“Science Fiction!”

“Fairy tales, etc.!”

“Over the years, all major departments of the company have successively been graced by Teacher Chu Kuang. It’s finally our turn to collaborate with Chu Kuang in the pure literature department—we have waited so long for this day!”

To gain the favor of Chu Kuang is to conquer the world.

This is the eternal legend of Silver Blue Books.

Any department, no matter how poor their previous performance, can immediately soar in their achievements once they get to collaborate with Chu Kuang!

Take the mystery department as an example.

Even though Chu Kuang hasn’t written a mystery novel for a long time, the Hercule Poirot series and Sherlock Holmes series he previously published generate astonishing sales numbers every month for the Silver Blue mystery department, supporting countless performance indicators!

Additionally.

The Science Fiction Department.

And the Fairy Tale Department face similar situations.

Now the pure literature department of Silver Blue Books finally welcomes Chu Kuang; how could they not be thrilled?

Chu Kuang = Bestseller!

It’s not just Silver Blue Books.

The entire Blue Star book market rarely sees bestselling pure literature works.

The pure literature departments of all major publishers on Blue Star are desperate to encounter a bestselling piece.

Though Chu Kuang has never written pure literature, as long as he’s willing to write, readers will buy his work no matter what genre it is!

He directly stands in an invincible position!

…

Amidst the collective excitement of the pure literature department at Silver Blue Books, the news that Chu Kuang’s new book is a pure literature piece was officially announced the evening it was received!

By the next day.

Silver Blue had already launched a promotional campaign.

Massive waves of advertisements swept across the digital billboards in various squares.

The advertisement page prominently featured the cover image of “Siege.”

The cover carried a line of introduction: [Marriage is a besieged fortress, with people inside wanting out and people outside wanting in—Chu Kuang’s first marriage-themed long pure literature work]

Additionally.

All major media.

Multiple forums.

You could see ads for “Siege” everywhere.

Lin Yuan also cooperated by having all three of his pen names repost the news, and even got Yi An involved to repost and promote it.

Instantly.

A global sensation!

“It’s only been just over a month since ‘The Three-Body Problem’ was released, and although I’ve seen it many times, Chu Kuang’s writing speed is still ridiculously fast!”

“Pure Literature!?”

“This old rascal Chu Kuang is reaching omnipotence mode, really aiming to cover all novel genres on Blue Star!”

“I don’t like pure literature, it feels too pretentious, but the old rascal’s pure literature is still worth a look. The promotional intro is good—it compares marriage to a besieged fortress, with some wanting in and others wanting out.”

“After all, it’s the old rascal.”

“Pure literature seems a bit melodramatic.”

“Haha, you’d say that as if Chu Kuang’s works aren’t melodramatic even when they’re not pure literature.”

“That’s true, too.”

“But how literary can the old rascal’s pure literature really be?”

“A work themed on marriage—has the old rascal Chu Kuang gotten married? Can he write this kind of work well?”

“This clearly seems to be for the sake of the author ranking.”

“If Chu Kuang wants to continue rising in the author rankings, he must write literary works, because the higher you go in the rankings, the more emphasis is placed on literariness. Sales are no longer the most important factor.”

“Is that so?”

“Wouldn’t that be a bit insincere?”

“Creating literature for literature’s sake—are the works created this way truly heartfelt?”

“This can’t be speculated, let’s look at the actual content.”

“The advertisement says it’s releasing next week.”

“I’m curious about the level of Chu Kuang’s first attempt at pure literature, I’ll definitely check it out.”

The fame of Chu Kuang.

The power of advertising.

The two combined resulted in “Siege” being a hit even before its release!

A week later.

When the novel titled “Siege” was released and went on sale.

The major bookstores across the eight continents of Blue Star were almost immediately flooded with enthusiastic readers, leading to a frenzy of purchases for “Siege”!

Who said pure literature doesn’t sell?

The sales of pure literature written by Chu Kuang are mind-boggling!

Especially for those writers who focus on pure literature!

The sales of Chu Kuang’s pure literature work “Siege” seemed like a dimensional reduction!

Of course.

Reputation is even more important than sales.

Readers buy books primarily due to Chu Kuang’s fame.

Thus.

The readers who bought “Siege” immediately started reading.

The reputation of this book began to quietly brew as the readers delved into its pages.
