Chapter 167: A Clash of Two Perspectives (Part 2)

  I read (no pop-up full text)

  "Regarding the situation where the candles in the ancient tomb went out three times, we have consulted relevant experts."

  On the screen, a shot of making a phone call appears, and then a calm middle-aged male voice comes through "Human candle, ghost blowing lamp this so-called tomb raiding rule actually has no historical basis, there is no record of such a thing, that is to say this is an artistic creation by the author of "Ghost Blowing Lamp".

  "The Ghost Blows Out the Light" is a familiar title to many audiences, with excellent results and a popularity that can only be compared to Master Chu Xing's work "Future Technology" two years ago.

  "Art comes from life, but it must be higher than life. The 'Ghost Blowing Lamp' incident is a good example of this. An ancient tomb that has been sealed for a long time may contain toxic gases, so lighting a candle can help to distinguish the air quality inside the tomb."

  The two grave robbers' candles kept going out because the air quality in the ancient tomb they dug up was poor and had low oxygen levels. Zhang and Wang's decision to run away saved their own lives, as if they continued deeper into the tomb, they might have died from poisoning due to the air.

  I'd like to remind all the TV viewers again, don't believe too much in what's described in books. Moreover, tomb raiding is against the law. According to Article 328 of China's Criminal Law: those who excavate or rob ancient cultural relics, historical sites, or graves with historical, artistic, or scientific value shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but no more than ten years. So, for those who still have a glimmer of hope after reading "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and are considering tomb raiding, please take note. That's all for now. The rest of the news is about Wang and Zhang's tomb raiding cases, just with different names.

  "I wrote 'Ghost Blows Out the Light', these two good-for-nothings go tomb raiding, if I were to write George Wells' 'First Men in the Moon', wouldn't these two good-for-nothings want to ascend to heaven and step on the moon?"

  About the bad news Wang Ni said, Su Xianchen had already thought of it. He went downstairs to buy a newspaper at the newsstand next to the residential area and saw an article on the front page: "Ghost Blows Lamp Ghost Story Continues, Leading People to Evil". The author of this article was Zhou Jingpeng. Okay! Su Xianchen knew that something big had happened and this great god would not be able to remain silent.

  Two tomb raiders mimicked the plot of a book to commit crimes, in my impression, such books that provide methods for tomb raiding should not be possible to publish domestically, but in fact, such books have been published and there are even people imitating them.

  I was curious about such a book, so I went to see that book, the title "Ghost Blows the Lamp", and then the author is Su Shi Chen. My impression of this author is very deep, a series of "Hong Huang" overturned and changed many folk myths, so I can understand that he can write such a book that leads people to evil.

  In the book "Ghost Blows Out the Light", there is an excessive beautification of tomb raiders. Tomb raiding itself is an illegal and immoral act, but in this book, it first separates tomb raiding into different schools, determines its historical origin, and establishes rules for tomb raiding. Let's study the rules mentioned in the first part of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", "The Precious Ancient City". For example, "Don't touch gold when the rooster crows and the lamp goes out", "Only take one or two things when encountering fellow practitioners", etc.

  These backgrounds all seem to be providing a justifiable reason for this immoral act of tomb raiding.

  However, in fact, these conclusions and backgrounds are extremely absurd. Cao Cao did have tomb-robbing behavior, but does that mean modern people can learn from ancient people's tomb robbing? And if you add some rules to tomb robbing, does that make it not against the law? If you only take one thing from the grave, is that not against the law?

  At the end of the day, tomb raiding is against the law and is a crime. This kind of book that beautifies and praises criminal behavior can be published openly and honestly, and it can even become a bestseller. I really want to ask if the brains of those who review publications have gone bad.

  "It's Zhou Jingpeng again!" Su Xichen let out a deep breath. If Zhou Jingpeng makes a big deal about this in the cultural circle, it's possible that he'll be banned. Just look at Zhou Jingpeng's tone, his last sentence was directly attacking the General Administration of Press and Publication! Who else would dare to do so?

  He pulled out his phone, ready to call Wang Ni to hold a press conference to clarify things, but just as he was about to dial the number, Su Xichen suddenly stopped. If public opinion really leaned towards Zhou Jingpeng, then Wang's aunt should have arranged for a press conference long ago. Moreover, when she called him earlier, Wang's aunt only told him about these two pieces of news and even mentioned Yang Jie's name. Was it...?

  Returned to Baoting, bought several newspapers again, and Yang Jiezi indeed published an article supporting him.

  "The Ghost Blows Out the Light: What I Saw"

  A real-life imitator emerged after a book became popular, and there are many examples in the history of reading. Moreover, the methods of grave robbery described in the book are all fake and fabricated by the author.

  Moreover, Zhang and Wang in this case are adults, and as adults, they should have their own judgment.

  You can't deny a book just because of this, it's like someone uses a knife to commit suicide, do you want to sue the person who sold the knife or the one who made the knife?

  If it's really like this, I think we're all guilty because according to this theory, we might all be murderers.

  Adults should be responsible for their own actions, just like the example I gave earlier. Whether to commit suicide is one's own business and has nothing to do with the knife. Similarly, Wang and Zhang's tomb raiding behavior is entirely their own voluntary act and has nothing to do with "The Grave Robbers' Chronicles".

  "The Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Mysterious Ancient Country" does not boast or praise tomb raiding, and in every instance of tomb raiding in the book, it is fraught with danger. It can be said that it's a miracle if they survive! Therefore, I think that "The Ghost Blows Out the Light" has prevented tomb raiding to some extent, because the tomb raiding described in the book is really too dangerous.

  I think the leadership of the General Administration of Press and Publication made a completely correct decision to allow "Ghost Blows Out the Light" to be published, and its huge sales are entirely due to the quality of the book itself.

  Yang Jie's "Ghost Blows the Lamp: What I See" can be said to be completely aimed at Zhou Jingpeng's "Ghost Blows the Lamp: Evil Talk Continues, Leading People Astray", with two people's views being diametrically opposed.

  Su Xianchen highly agrees with Yang Jie's point of view. In the past, there was an example on Earth where a man in the United States imitated Christie's detective story "ABC Murder Case" and created a sensational murder case. Shouldn't this also lead to the banning of Christie, the queen of detectives?

  If we follow this theory, it's very easy to take down an opponent. Just bribe someone to imitate the plot of the opponent's book and create a bad influence, then the opponent's book will be banned, isn't that wonderful!

  Zhou Jingpeng has a high reputation in the cultural circle, and Yang Jie can also be said to be on par with him. Both sides have many supporters.

  "This kind of book 'Ghost Blows Out the Light' which leads people to evil should be banned mercilessly!!"

  "It also leads people to evil, if an adult can't even distinguish between right and wrong, is this still considered an adult?"

  "Seal it!" "Support! Ghost Blows Lamp is mighty!"

  ……

  One side strongly supports "The Ghost Blows Out the Light", while the other demands it be banned, with both sides completely at odds and engaging in a fierce battle. The two sides have reached an impasse.

  However, the sales of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" reached another peak due to this incident. Many readers who originally disliked the tomb-raiding theme went out to buy the book, wanting to see what kind of content could evoke a desire to raid tombs in people. They wanted to know what kind of book could have such an effect. Additionally, some people were just following the trend.

  No one suspected that it was hype or a joke, according to Zhou Jingpeng and Yang Jie's level, how could they be hyping it up, so these people who joined in the excitement wanted to see what kind of book could make two professors argue with each other like this.

  "It's a good thing Professor Yang spoke up to help, otherwise this time would have been really bad." It can be said that this time was a blessing in disguise. After connecting Wang Ni's phone call: "Auntie, I roughly understand what happened. My relationship with Professor Yang is still not bad."

  "There are many TV stations and newspapers wanting to do a special interview with you about the hot sales of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", Xiao Chen, do you have time?"

  This is the difference between a famous writer and an unknown one. An unknown writer wants to be on the headlines, they have to do something sensational, like original residence challenging him, but Su Lei Chen now whether or not accept an interview depends on whether he has time.

  "No need for an interview, I've been quite busy with writing 'The Matrix' lately."

  "Hmm, it seems that 'The Matrix' is absolutely a classic science fiction." Wang Ni suddenly said this. Currently, only Zhang Chen has seen the manuscript of "The Matrix" because he needs to help with the illustrations. Wang Yi hasn't read the content, so why does she know it's a classic? Is it just based on the title? To be honest, the title "The Matrix" isn't that great either. Wang Yi shouldn't be the kind of person who speaks casually.

  "All I heard was Wang's aunt continuing to say, 'I remember that you only used half a month for the book "Hong Huang", and less than three weeks for the reasoning of "Murder on the Orient Express". But this "The Matrix" has been more than two months and still hasn't been written well. It must be an exquisite work.'"

  "Flood" and "Murder on the Orient Express" are different from this "The Matrix", but to be honest, this one is indeed the most invested in by Su Rui Chen so far.

  "The matter of joining the Writers' Association has been settled, and you, Xiao Chen, are now the youngest author in the association."

  The National Writers Association is not comparable to the Provincial Writers Association or the Municipal Writers Association. The youngest authors who joined are around 23 years old, and this record is also known as an unbeatable record. However, Su Lei Chen suddenly broke this record by five years. In fact, if three years ago Su Lei Chen had not suddenly gone silent but instead published "Ghost Blows Out the Light" according to plan, I believe this record could have been broken again by another three years!

  At eighteen years old, joining the national writers association is not as abnormal as joining at fifteen years old, but it's still a very sensational thing. Currently this news has not been spread out yet, otherwise there will be another commotion.

  "It's just in time for you to join, as the association will be organizing some activities in two days' time, and then you can get to know many authors in the circle."

  "What kind of activities usually take place?"

  "Probably a group of authors go to some universities to give lectures or hold writing salons, anyway, it's all activities related to writing, and authors exchanging ideas with each other also has its benefits."

  "Uh-huh, I see. Two days later, right? Where is it being held?"

  "Nature is the capital," Wang Ni suddenly asked, "Xiao Chen, apart from the tomb robbery incident, do you need to make a public announcement about another matter or have the company issue a statement?"

  "Anything else?"

  Su Shilei asked Chen Xun, did he only see the dispute between Zhou Jingpeng and Yang Jiezi? Is there anything else? Do we need to make an announcement? (Please search 5du5 for more updates!)
