How much would you pay to have...

[Tom]

...

1) Jin Yong and Gu Long to have wrote a book together

2) Jin Yong to write another book

3) Gu Long to be alive

4) Jin Yong, Gu Long, Liang Yusheng, Wen Rui'an, and Huang Yi to write a book together

5) A new great wuxia writer to emerge

6 Jin Yong to *REALLY* fix his books up

NOTE: You don't have to "pay" in money. You can "pay" in other things...

1) probably not that much . . . settling their differences is a whole 'nother matter

2) he's like 80 . . . most people don't even live that long

3) call upon the powers of the gods

4) hundred mil euros should do the trick . . . . that's more than their net worths combined

5) nothing,

6) not even the gods can help this time

6 Jin Yong to *REALLY* fix his books up

nothing. i would hate to see additional revisions. it's the author's right to revise his work as he sees fit, but it's really quite confusing not to mention certain things should be left alone. just opinion of a fan

Differences in writing style, plot, character development . .

No. In fact, they were good friends.

One problem with getting Gu Long to write anything these days is he's kind of dead, and has been since 1985. Hate to go out on a limb, but I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Dead guys have a hard time writing new wuxia stories; not sure why that is, but it is.

$0. Looking at the way he 'fix' ROCH. I would rather he refrains from doing more fixing.

2) Jin Yong to write another book

If Jin Yong writes a new book now, it might not be as good as his old one. He's already 80 years old. Not in his prime anymore. He might not have as much creative juice as before. Ni Kuang has said in one interview that he now cannot write like he did before. Ideas used to come to him very naturally, but not anymore now.

Well, just imagine him to be alive.
