I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 446 I is ABC?

"Mr. Ji, do you still remember me? I'm Zhang Mingguo."

Zhang Mingguo is the only one who knows that ABC is Ji Zhuo, the author of the dog.

Ever since he knew about it, he has become a happy person.

Every time he sees and hears readers of ABC and dog writers arguing with each other, he is overjoyed,

Many of his old friends and even his wife are dog writers and ABC readers.

Every time I hear them say that ABC's works are better than dog authors, or vice versa,
He couldn't help but put a smile on his face,

His wife looked at him inexplicably several times.

He naturally kept it a secret for Ji Zhuo.

He promised Ji Zhuo to keep it secret, so naturally he did what he said.

However, every time I think about when ABC's identity will be revealed,

Thinking about the reactions of those readers, he found it interesting.

"Remember... what's the matter with Mr. Zhang?"

Ji Zhuo, who was on the phone, had already returned to the house.

Close the living room.

But listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, he always felt that every time Zhang Mingguo was found, nothing good would happen.

"It's not a big deal, it's the Shuren Literary Award, Mr. Ji, do you know?"

Listening to the voice, one could tell that Zhang Mingguo seemed to be laughing,

Ji Zhuo listened, but fell silent for a while,

This is the second time he heard the name of this award today,

There is a very bad feeling.

"Yeah. I know."

"Is there going to be an award soon?"

"Yes, today, after discussions among the judges, this year's award-winning works have been determined."

"Mr. Ji, you should be able to receive an official email notification in a while, but I still volunteered to call you, Mr. Ji, in case you ignored the email."

Now that it's mentioned, it must be Ji Zhuo's work that won the award.
But judging by Zhang Mingguo's tone, there must be something wrong.

"Well, okay, I'll check my email later."

"Well...Mr. Ji, since I've already called you, I'll just tell you about the award."

"A lot of good works emerged this year. After a heated debate among the jury members, they decided to award the works of multiple writers at the same time."

Having said that, Zhang Mingguo, a fun-loving person, is already having fun.
Ji Zhuo had roughly guessed what the result would be, and his scalp had already started to tingle.

"The judges selected three works to win, two of them are Mr. Ji's "Kite" and 'ABC''s "Shadow Empire"..."

"..."

Sure enough, just as he expected, the works of the dog author and ABC won awards at the same time.

Ji Zhuo was silent, and then heard that three works won awards at the same time,

Feeling even worse, I asked one more question,
"Well... I see. Whose work is the rest?"

"The remaining one is I's work, which is the "Ordinary and Great" that can barely be compared with Mr. Ji's work now."

"..."

Ji Zhuo was even more silent.

Zhang Mingguo is still having fun there,

He didn't know the identity of I, but his main attention was still on the award-winning works of ABC and the author of the dog at the same time.
Quite a bit like watching the excitement and not taking too much trouble,
"Mr. Ji, do you think you are accepting the award via video connection this time? May I inform the awarding committee for you?"

Zhang Mingguo asked with a smile,

It is impossible for Ji Zhuo to divide into two halves to receive the award.

The point is, the winners are the same award,
And ABC and the dog author obviously cannot appear at the same time.

"...When I voted, I actually suggested that the other judges choose one work, but the judges who were arguing a lot couldn't make a choice."

"Finally, Mr. Ji and your two works will be awarded together."

Listening to Zhang Mingguo's words,
Ji Zhuo was completely numb.

Zhang Mingguo is a fun person here, but he didn't know that I was also him.

If Ji Zhuo participated in receiving the award, it would not cut him in half, at least cut him into three pieces.

"Well... Let's accept the award via video link... By the way, the award under the author's name will be accepted by the publishing house."

"Okay, I'll tell them."

Zhang Mingguo finally smiled and ended the call.

Ji Zhuo put down his phone, sat on the sofa in the living room, looked at the dark night outside the window, his eyes stared straight,

Feelings and emotions are complicated.

……

"...Well... Tell me, is it possible... I is ABC?"

Great Britain, university dormitories.

Xi Yuan flipped through "Empire of Shadows" again, raised his head, and said to his roommate with some uncertainty.

And his roommate, with "The Ordinary and the Great" spread out on his lap, facing the lit computer screen, is fiercely fighting with netizens.

"Ah? What did you say?"

The roommate was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, looked at Xi Yuan in surprise,

"Xi Yuan, why did you make such an outrageous guess? I was arguing with people on the Internet just now, and some people think that I is ABC. Are their works similar in style? Why is ABC using another account? Release the work? Not long after the release of "The Ordinary and the Great", but "Shadow Empire" was published again, do you have so much time?"

The roommate said quickly,

It sounds like something is wrong, Xi Yuan is even more uncertain,

"I just finished watching "Shadow Empire", thinking about what you said before, and other readers on the Internet guessed, so I thought of it."

"That may be your illusion."

roommate said.

"...No, it is possible."

Hearing his roommate's negation, Xi Yuan became firmer, shook his head and said,
"At least, it's reasonable to say that the author of the dog didn't release new books so quickly, but ABC releases new books quickly. It's not impossible to release a new book before the release of "Shadow Empire". There are more than one book in it. The emptiness of the moon."

"In addition, as for the purpose, is it possible to compete with the dog author this time? The dog author's new books are serialized worldwide simultaneously. When "Shadow Empire" was released, they also chose to publish "Shepherd Boy" overseas. For works such as "Xunxian" and "Star Dream", it doesn't make sense for ABC to release new books normally like this, without doing anything special.

You know, it is said that this book is going to compete with the author of the dog, but ABC said it!
In fact, "The Ordinary and the Great" is his backhand, maybe even the author of the dog doesn't know about it.

He hid the identity of I from everyone, and waited for the results of "Ordinary and Great" to come up.

Then the author said, look, the results of "The Ordinary and the Great" are also good, hey, it's mine too! "

As Xi Yuan spoke, he became more and more determined as he spoke.

As for his roommate, he was taken aback for a while.

"...Well, Xi Yuan, your guess seems to be very reasonable... But in terms of prerequisites, I is ABC. How can I be ABC? Isn't this too far-fetched?"

The roommate swallowed, and said again to the radiant Xi Yuan.

Xi Yuan listened, with some hesitation on his face.

Guessing like this is indeed too far-fetched.

Although it makes sense, guessing like this, anyone can make sense.

"...Actually, the main thing is the feeling...just the feeling, the type of work and the writing style are very close."

"Although I can't find any obvious writing characteristics... But when I read "Shadow Empire" and "The Ordinary and the Great", I can feel the smooth writing style, that is, the kind that doesn't use complicated words very much, but each The vocabulary is used extremely appropriately, and the writing feels extremely smooth..."

"...Of course, maybe, maybe it's my preconceived illusion. After all, I made a judgment after hearing you say that someone on the Internet guessed that way."

Xi Yuan had some guesses and some self-doubt.
