Besides the personage inside the press, cultural circles course of study, " the hero is born " also happened on common west reader " chemical effect " .

Why be " shoot vulture " ?
Be thought this is a belt novel of history of demoniac law colorific
Why does gold need the might of great mind erupts this?
Early before be being published with respect to this book, the agent that has England ever said frankly, oneself never hear of Guo Jinyong before this, also look not to know Chinese, until looked flower after translation example, its guess " kongfu " a brick picked up to knock on the door and thrown away when it has served its purpose-a stepping-stone to success that can become this book to open western world entrance door.
In fact, although " kongfu " it is western reader about China contemporary " culture " most one of topics of take delight in talking about, but help strength " the hero is born " appear " sell greatly " , have additionally still however " mystery " .
This paragraph of time, british media calls Jin Yong " Chinese Tuoerjin " , and will " hero ejaculation vulture is passed " with " demon give up " place on a par. "If you are " demon give up " fan, also seeking next target, so " the hero is born " the first selection that is you absolutely... follow Guo Jing and Huang Rong to set foot on expeditionary road, see them fall in love, experience all sorts of wars and tussle together with them. This is one is interweaving the strange unreal literature of Chinese kongfu, history and love, assure to make you deep-set among them, cannot extricate oneself. " this book introduces so on the website of Waterstone.
"Perhaps this is one lets western world and reader enter this China best-selling the world that writer compose builds' most convenient way. Also accordingly, in the process of the sale, this book is to be put in category of strange unreal book, and the reader that is interested in this book for the most part also is lover of strange unreal novel. " Zhang Jing says.
Be in England a certain extremely on guest website, a netizen that the name is Robin Brooks is read " the hero is born " hind wrote excitedly the name is " the 5 big reason that read Jin Yong " article, he says, "Those strange unreal swordsman film that the occasion of acrobatic fighting in Chinese opera or dance in the book can'ts help letting person couplet remember China. Imagine, countless arrowhead are mixed to bend by fire, cast, capture with strange kind. Imagine, people can break away from gravity leap to wait. The knight-errant is a kind of artistic form of this book. You can discover such as ' fall dragon 18 palms ' and ' 9 shade bones of the dead is ungual ' etc fill form of acrobatic fighting in Chinese opera or dance of different region colorific. These gifted the glamour with this endless book and mysterious colour. These gifted the glamour with this endless book and mysterious colour..
However, this is only germinant, in many book review people and reader heart, setting of these dazzling different region knight-errant are a kind additional " blackart " , but most those who attract them is " epic kind " narrative.
On Reddit, through 3 many lunar discussion ferments, netizen Aktikus last week 5 also sent a leaving a message, represent this paragraph of time he all the time " the hero is born " put in pillow edge, "Among them plot discusses with the wife after be being read every night, detect eventually this book and " demon give up " where is distinction " . Should leave a message to gain tip of nearly 200 buy quickly.
The reporter discusses discovery from wh some of which, to western reader, the China of 13 centuries, since a distant and mysterious country, it is a special historical period. Each nation conflict and confluence, the vast difference of square culture of north and south, the acuteness contradiction of influential officials estate and careless root estate, of the decline of the dynasty and new world rebuild -- had the element with all history the most fascinating novel almost, a variety of details picture that are based on historical fact make a lot of readers that have strong interest to Chinese culture more infatuate.
British fictionist Marcel Theroux is in " defend a newspaper " on print hair comment says: "Imagine very hard, this is " hero ejaculation vulture is passed " be translated into English first, I open Anacreontic narration completely for its enthusiasm and place of unbleached fairy tale atmosphere are enveloped. This open you are opposite China's lifetime enthusiasm -- long to it history and civilization, still have it is extensive and long-standing misunderstanding. Still have it is extensive and long-standing misunderstanding..
No matter be to be on western mainstream media, on the gregarious platform that still representing mass communication heat, ceaseless somebody " shoot vulture " medium Guo Jing and " the game of influence " medium favour fining jade? Xue Nuo or " demon give up " the Foluoduo in? Ba Jinsi makes contrast, be thought by the different of former juice raw ingredient the world is attracted.
"When we read interpreter novel, without can avoid the ground to be able to bring oneself culture and the brand that read experience, western reader to " hero ejaculation vulture is passed " unscramble also mirrorred this. The legend experience of the character in golden commonplace novel, copy if the knight-errant world like blackart, and strong historical interest, the reader that can let different culture setting really more be accepted easily and understand. " Zhang Jing says.
Besides the knight-errant, "Is China told about " even what?
"More foreign " also need support of the people of climate favourable geographical position
Besides " the hero is born " outside, paul Engles of editor in chief of press of Huo Si of wheat gram Lai is accepting a reporter to suffer when visitting, express, you Zhangjing translates " shoot vulture " flower translation will be the 2nd at the beginning of next year issue, hope the speed with a year of hank, complete publish " hero ejaculation vulture is passed " " associate of divine carve a person adept in martial arts and given to chivalrous conduct " " lean on Tian Tulong to write down " work of 3 Jin Yong.
Besides flower outside translation, " shoot vulture " French caricature edition also begins from October 2017 up to now, had published the 5th in France. Work of a person adept in martial arts and given to chivalrous conduct publishs the Jin Yongwu of the language such as heart article, Spain article, Portuguese article, Italy article to also be in in brewing. This and before translation of golden commonplace work is very few, and in western reader " natural environment refuses to obey " circumstances is widely divergent.
"This is not the problem of the translation previously or press. " Zhang Jing says frankly, " shoot vulture " flower the success of translation was to enjoy Chinese national power powerful " climate " . "More than 10 years ago, I work in London museum, in those days Englishman although the interest to China has promotion, also stay in artwork level at most, that is not to need to master Chinese or Chinese culture to more or less also can be admired of a few. But apparently, after Beijing Olympic Games, western world is spent to Chinese attention taller and taller, even the bread of Everyman is in draw close to China, among them, chinese books has a lot of people to want to look. Chinese books has a lot of people to want to look..
In addition, zhang Jing thinks, people is right full length of the general quantity novel such as novel of strange unreal, network read a habit to also be in in last few years time is fostered and popularity rises, resemble " demon give up " " Halley? Baud " " the game of influence " etc, at every turn a few, about a hundred 10 thousand words, also changed the taste of western reader. "The Chinese sees 10 popular work previously not exceptionally, but western reader is very difficult, publish the tide, change that reads a habit to also let them had made preparation now, this is ' support of the people ' . This is ' support of the people ' ..
In fact, in the literary world of 3 years ago one batch of country everybody appears on new York when the book is exhibited, about Chinese culture whether can " go " if the problem is discussed extensively. A group of data show at that time, the Chinese literature that overseas published 2014 translates work to already had more than kinds 100, and entered the masses to read the market stage by stage.
In addition, obtain honor one after another in the world as a few China writers -- Mo Yan obtains Nuo award, Yan Lianke to obtain Kafukawen to learned award, Cao Wenxuan to obtain international Andersen award, Liu Cixin " 3 body, also give " Chinese culture goes " bring more opportunity.
Although Chinese literature work is in " go " the breakthrough is obtained ceaselessly on road, but the development posture with contemporary to China rich and diversiform literature, "A long march of ten thousand lie " just just start. Current, the amount of world of trend of Chinese contemporary literature is small still, great majority books fails to enter market of Euramerican mainstream books.
Accordingly, " shoot vulture " be regarded as a strong enlightenment successfully.
Above all, include home of western book review inside many scholars think, when the reader the photograph of novel of sword a person of extraordinary powers Chinese knight-errant novel and western knight literature, strange unreal literature and Japan is compared, although they are to come from different district, different culture, but have the mankind to be opposite actually primitive living airy image.
Next, be approbated by western literature bound from Mo Yan and Liu Cixin, upright to the interpret of network literature and golden commonplace work, can see Chinese literature besides " knight-errant " , still by " imagination " gave out sonorous voice, this is long since China serves as the west " the person that be imagined " flounced off others stare, the independent voice that give out, tell about the imagination of pair of worlds and ego.
Again, " shoot vulture " flower the result of translation operation mode explained objectively also " mechanism of favourable geographical position " importance. The Guangzhou city of operation of copyright of knight-errant of responsible gold commonplace Ou Yangqun of president of limited company of bright sound books thinks, be in abroad, base oneself upon already developed maturity at the mode of complete copyright operation of figure of writer, literature, scored very great success, for instance J.K. Company of accredit of collect beautiful jade, Dishini is accredit company, blue demon accredit company, build " complete copyright " operation mode is beneficial Chinese literature " more foreign " .
