I am a nobleman in England

A true nobleman is a person of high moral character, a person with a chivalry spirit, who is not afraid of difficulties and dangers, a person who obeys certain rules and is always grateful to their ancestors.

The contemporary British aristocracy has declined, and the wealth and power are gradually lost. Only the honorable aristocratic title and family glory left by the ancestors are left. Therefore, fame and honor are the last dignity of the British aristocracy.

Therefore, there are certain things that can only be done, not said, low-key is king.

It is true that the first generation of the so-called ancestors of these noble families who entered this class are often talented but not innocent people, because if it is not used in black and white, there are very few soaring people, let alone Said to occupy a place in a society where competition is so cruel.But history is always written by successful people. People tend to remember the many advantages and achievements of the nobility. They seem to have overlooked their shortcomings or moral decay, and they have already died with them.

Even though many aristocrats in modern times have fallen into despair, there is still an unbreakable concept of social hierarchy in the aristocratic class, stubbornly maintaining the superiority of the aristocratic bloodline over the civilian bloodline.

At first, Arthur really didn’t notice any problem with "Fifty Shadows of Gray". After all, the degree of openness in the Western world was there. However, as the novel became popular, he found that although people like to watch it, But it has been accompanied by controversy.

After deep thought, he suddenly felt that Emilia's warning was justified. Perhaps everything in the world of cash is closely related to xing, and the rules of xing rule every field and corner.

Perhaps this is not alarmist, after all, some discordant information has already flooded the Internet.However, if you observe more closely, it is not difficult to find that between the frivolous sensual pleasure and serious moral criticism, the strict boundaries and tension between the public and private spheres are still highlighted.

Open entertainment lace and romantic anecdotes may still detonate public opinion at any time.For example, although contemporary, the Marquis de S.A. has renewed its brilliance in the professional literary and intellectual circles.However, the title of a writer with deep insights and thoughts on human nature still cannot conceal Sa De's notorious reputation in the eyes of the public.

Arthur didn't dare to gamble on his reputation and honor. He really flinched. Indeed, after the publication of the previous life "Fifty Shades of Gray", the middle-aged aunt rose to fame and gained both fame and fortune, but after all, the other party was just a man. Ordinary people, middle-aged aunts!Now that the author is replaced by him, Earl Arthur, can people really accept it?Treated with kindness?

I'm afraid not necessarily!

Ridicules, bantering, spitting, and behind-the-scenes discussions will follow. I am afraid that the British aristocracy will also be deliberately alienated and isolated, even if he can rely on the title of the earl to add a lot of gimmicks and highlights to the novel, make a lot of money, but also Will completely push him away from the British aristocracy, and rejected by mainstream British ideas.

Although all this is only Arthur's own association, perhaps things may not be so bad, but he has to guard against it. After all, regardless of Britain's corruption, the mainstream of the cultural world is still dominated by conservative.

In the eyes of the British, the industrial revolution did bring about economic development and material prosperity, but industry and commerce naturally advocating competition and praising for profit, while excessive emphasis on material wealth and individualistic self-interest, once popularized, will inevitably corrupt social morality and corrupt people’s The soul leads the beautiful English spiritual tradition to collapse.

This kind of criticism has even been universally recognized and gathered in the sand. Over the decades, not only has it developed into a set of conservative ideology and has been absorbed by the mainstream of British cultural circles, it has slowly penetrated into the soil and become a national consciousness.The British believe that the preciousness of Britain is not in the new trend it leads, but just in its old age, so it must protect its unique heritage from being obliterated by the new era.

The risk is too great. Once some marks are put on, and then want to wash them off, it is not that easy. This risk, Arthur told himself, must not be taken. Don't be afraid, being safe is the most important thing.

Let’s take a look at the direction of public opinion first. Perhaps when he is truly successful and becomes a real winner, this may become a small comment on his legend. But now, he is just a generation of nobles who inherited the title and family property. , This is to recruit black physique!

"...Sorry, for this one, I can't agree to your agency's request to cooperate in the promotion!"

The castle is huge and magnificent, as magnificent as a church. It is surrounded by tall sculptures. In the main hall with exquisite frescoes on top, the team of Random House Press brought by Arthur and Tom sits although some are already slightly visible. On a large sofa made of 17th-century Spanish leather that was old but full of years of vicissitudes, Arthur put the opened contract on the coffee table in front of him, and directly refused.

"Not only was it unable to agree to your agency's request to cooperate with the propaganda, I also hope that your agency will keep the fact that I am the author of the novel "The Fifty Shadows of Gray" confidential, and cannot be disclosed or made public!"

Upon hearing Arthur's request, both Tom and the people at Random House Press were taken aback, but they were quickly relieved that they are all smart people, and there are some things that don't need to be too straightforward.

"But in this way, it will inevitably affect the promotion and sales of the novel. Your Excellency, Earl Arthur, I believe you should also be aware that your identity can have a huge publicity and influence on the sales of this novel... "

"I know all this, but it's impossible. To be honest, I was just a joke at the beginning of this novel, and then somehow it suddenly became popular on the forum. I originally wanted to stop it, but in order not to let the readers We were disappointed, so I continued to create. Before, I wanted to update it directly on the Internet for free for readers to read.

However, more and more publishing houses trust me privately, and I have to think about it, and finally decided to find the most powerful publishing house to publish. There is no doubt about the strength of your publishing house. I also believe that this novel is In the hands of your agency, it will definitely become a bestseller. After all, it has now exceeded 50 million hits and has a considerable reader base. I think that once these people are converted, they will get an amazing sales figure.

Moreover, the author's sense of mystery may not be a good thing, just leave this suspense, let everyone guess!" Arthur leaned on the sofa, crossed his fingers in front of him, and said with a smile.

"Your Excellency Earl Arthur... This." The person in charge of Random House who led the team this time gave a wry smile and didn't know how to convince the young earl on the opposite side. Suddenly, there was a flash of inspiration and he said again: "Your concerns We can understand our concerns and worries, but, your Excellency, whether it is on the Internet or in reality, all pervasive reporters will inevitably investigate the true identity of the novel author. I am afraid it will be difficult to keep it secret."

"I have also considered this. However, I believe that both your company and our company will strictly abide by the confidentiality agreement. This exposure will be delayed for a long time. If your company and I do not come forward to admit and deny, even if it is exposed, it will only be too much. It’s just a gimmick, which is also good for sales.

Affirmation and guesswork, acknowledgment and non-denial, have two effects on the direction of public opinion. This matter, just like this, I will not change my attitude!"Arthur said his resolute attitude directly without hesitation.
