What are the differences between Jin Yong and Gu Long's martial arts novels?

I think there are six major differences between the novels of Jin Yong and Gu Long. First, the background of the novels is different. Jin Yong's novels have both historical shadows and new artistic creations, his "Book and Sword Envengement" written to Qianlong and Chen Ge Lao, in the "Book of Deer and Cauldron" written to Kangxi and Aobai, in the "Legend of the Dragon Slayers" written to Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da, are all historically documented celebrities, he used three parts of history and seven parts of the novel of the art, half-true, half-false, false in the true. While Gu Long writes novels, he leaves history aside, and he sets up his novels in an environment with almost no clear background of the times. Both gallop imagination, but also reasonable. Secondly, the description of social environment and customs is different. Jin Yong in the description of scenery, by and large, there is a clear geographic location, write Jiangnan, write the north, write Shaolin, write Wudang, have detailed and specific depiction, give people the inculcation of historical knowledge. And Gu Long write small towns, write mountain villages, write mountains, write water, are at hand, create something out of nothing, play to your heart's content. A rely on realistic and artistic processing, a rely on passion to conceptualize the ideal society; in Jin Yong's novels can appreciate the social flavor, and Gu Long's novel is the world of human feelings exposed. Thirdly, the structure of their novels is different. Jin Yong not only got rid of the old martial arts novels stereotypes, but also inherited the rigorous structure of traditional literature, because he has written a movie script, and from time to time to use the Western psychological description of the means to enrich the structure of the multi-level and multi-perspective, his novels, open, close, echoing back and forth, all in one fell swoop. Writing history is not dull and rigid. Smiling Proud Wanderer" is a masterpiece in this regard. Jin Yong some novels, up to five volumes, there are more than one million words, but from beginning to end of the theme is clear, well-conceived. It can be seen that his solid artistic skills. In contrast, Gu Long is not too concerned about the structure, he consciously introduced the method of Western European literature, all the way to write, strange peaks, set up suspense, confusing, but due to the pursuit of the plot of the bizarre, inevitably there is the problem of the head without regard to the tail. Fortunately, Gu Long's talent, although the structure of the sometimes broken, but because of the novel writing method, imagination, both as pearl words, but also make the reader eye-opening, love, since a new style of martial arts novels. Fourth, in the story articulation, also has its own clever techniques. Jin Yong relies on the interlocking plot to organize the story; and Gu Long is to create suspense to attract readers, the former called people read more and more to feel the author's imagination, the latter makes readers enter a confusing world of art. Fifth, in the characterization of typical, also have their own art typical favorites. Jin Yong's pen, a multitude of people, in addition to Wei Xiaobao, he is best at shaping the simple and unassuming heroes, such as Guo Jing, Qiaofeng, all appear to be generous, loyal, generous, and even a little blunt and modest; Gu Long is different, he is better at describing the heroes of the resourcefulness, dashing, bold and unconstrained, such as Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, Li Xunhuan, Jiang Xiaoyu. In contrast, Jin Yong wrote witty characters, not inferior; Gu Long's Tie Zhongtang, Shen Lang, also not as wonderful and touching as Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang. Sixth, the biggest difference between Jinyong and Gu Long is still in their language expression. Jin Yong's style, on the basis of Liang Yusheng's new school of martial arts novels, for a change, his language sophisticated and calm, profound, not only succeeded in inheriting the traditional language of classical Chinese novels, but also integrated into the new literary strokes, due to the combination of the two seamless, so that the old readers do not get tired of, and the new readers and high-five. Gu Long is the pursuit of martial arts novels, language Europeanization, he is good at writing short sentences and parallelism, dialogue, more aphorisms, explain the ins and outs of things, multi-paragraphs, multi-level, he seeks to write the sentence is very beautiful, very playful, very philosophical, giving people a new pattern of the face. Gu Long's innovation in language, of course, is not to say that the absolute success of some of his novels, such as "the end of the world - the bright moon - knife" on the tendency to excessive pursuit of prose poetry, read too elegant, so that readers confused. But after all, Gu Long's new style breaks through the original style of martial arts novels and forms a new language and art style of its own.
