Chapter 157: Chapter 138 No One Can Beat Him in This Field (Please Subscribe)_2

Once the early results were dissatisfying, he couldn’t accept it. He was very likely to just cut it off and start a new book. Unsatisfied again, continue cutting, thus falling into a vicious cycle, back to where he started.

Zhang Yixing, as the chief editor, had a deep understanding of this.

“You’re already thinking about securing him a spot for film and TV adaptation recommendations before there’s even a hint of success. What if it flops?”

Youyou blinked: “Just read it and you’ll see, no one can beat him in this field.”

“What field?”

Zhang Yixing’s face changed, looking down at the document Youyou had sent, “Last Week’s Antique… he has deep expertise in the field of antiques?”

Youyou shook her head, smiling: “I’m not sure about the antiques, but in the realm of crime-themed stories, no one can beat him.”

Just like nobody could beat Gao Jin, the God of Gamblers, with the ‘dum dum dum’ background music going, or defeat a man’s past sweetheart in his life, even if the sweetheart herself were present, it couldn’t be done.

In the realm of crime themes, Handon, who had come in second place twice, could attest to that.

There, he had decided to release his new book in June, but then thought it over and decided to wait until after Lin Chuan released his, to launch his new book avoiding Lin Chuan.

If I can’t confront it, can’t I just avoid it?

Zhang Yixing didn’t pay as much attention to Lin Chuan as Youyou did, but now, having talked with Youyou about it, his forehead slightly furrowed, recalling several novels Lin Chuan had written: “You seem to have a point.”

“So, can we give the film and TV adaptation recommendation slot to Lin Chuan for ‘Last Week’s Antique’?” Youyou seized the opportunity to say.

“I haven’t read it yet,” Chief Editor Zhang Yixing said with an embarrassed smile.

Afterward.

He opened the ‘Last Week’s Antique.doc’ file, and Lin Chuan’s novel appeared before his eyes.

‘My name is Mr. Lin.’

‘I’m honored and respected as a master in the antiques circle, sought after by thousands.’

‘But nobody knows I am also the world’s most professional master of antique forgery.’

‘In my life, I have forged countless antiques, some collected by masters, others highly sought after in the antiques circle. Even the British Museum has my forgeries, displayed in glass cases for people to exhibit and appreciate, feeling their historic charm.’

‘Yes, as long as I do not disclose these secrets, these forgeries will be revered as genuine and passed on.’

‘True and false, known to no one.’

‘Until I saw more and more ordinary people entering the antiques circle, being trapped and cheated, even ruined financially. The entire antiques circle is filled with the vile atmosphere of profit-making through forgery.’

‘This is not the scene I wanted to see!’

‘I know that if it goes on like this, the antiques circle will completely degrade into a tool for capital profit, utterly losing its original significance.’
