When I get older, I will talk to young people I don’t know and tell them that I also had a literary dream back then.

I want to do something, I want to write something.

Because I really like writing novels.

So, I picked up this Qidian account that I hadn’t opened for a long time.

I don't regard myself as a big shot who has published articles in print media. I am like Zhang Chi in "Flying Speed ​​2", with a very clear self-positioning. What level am I at? I am now at the level of a small online writer.

.

I will do whatever the Internet writer should do.

When a person hits the bottom, what he should do is to climb up instead of looking back at the place where he fell. Eyes cannot help you climb back up.

I began to scan the rankings from scratch and learn to write online articles.

I used to wonder why those novice novels with poor writing skills could be so popular? I read a lot of novice novels, about urban cultivators and the best miracle doctors. I read them carefully, word for word, sentence by sentence, and wrote long notes.

To analyze them, to deconstruct them.

I was also puzzled, why could those books be so long when they looked so simple? The ability to structure novels was exactly what I lacked. So I studied them. I broke them apart and studied them.

I am very serious about my work. Only when it comes to novels, I have always been very serious.

In the process of learning to write online articles, those online writing theories echoed the books I had read before. Sometimes I found that some creative techniques were similar. Oh, this is Llosa's "structural realism".

This is the "third comer"...

I studied Xiaobai Wen very carefully and gradually discovered their wonder. It was no accident that they became popular.

So I learned it.

I wrote "The Beauties" using the theory I summarized. In fact, "The Beauties" is also a very dazzling novel. For example, in the first 150,000 words, the protagonist of the novel does not appear much. For example, there are more than a dozen heroines in it. More

The basic technique is how to stimulate emotions, how to make people angry in a moment, and how to make people feel happy in a moment.

In short, this book is a concentrated display of the skills I learned from Xiaobai. Of course, no one expected to learn any skills from a book called "Drawing the Female Boss into the Group of Beauties, and I Was Exposed"

Come on. People will just sigh after seeing the title of the book and say, what kind of rubbish is this? It’s like no one expects to see literary quality in online articles.

But I have no control over those. For me, as long as a book can make money, it is a good book.

In the process of writing "The Beauty Group", my experience gradually enriched, my market acumen continued to strengthen, and my former abilities gradually returned to me in the process of recovery. Moreover, I became more and more familiar with online articles.

In the later stages of writing "The Beauties", I have reached this point - the moment I come up with the title of that chapter, I can roughly estimate how many follow-up orders there will be for that chapter, whether it will increase or decrease.

.I estimate accurately every time.

A novel has bones, flesh and soul.

The bones are the structure of the novel, the flesh is the surface of the novel, and the soul is the spiritual core of the novel.

The bones of "The Beauties" are Xiao Baiwen's bones, the flesh is Xiao Baiwen's flesh, but the soul is my own soul.

So in the process of writing it, I was always in a bit of pain because the spirit and the flesh did not match.

I think this kind of pain is necessary. Because I am at the level of a web writer, when I learn a new skill, it should usually be painful.

After finishing "The Beauties", I plan to write a novel using my own flesh. This will make me feel more comfortable. But I have lost that flesh for a long time.

I started looking through my old drafts, and found a long-lost beginning. It was only 6,000 words, very short. It had been prepared for publication in serious literary magazines for many years.

"The straight-line distance between Wang Zixu's unit and his home is no more than 800 meters, and it takes less than 10 minutes to walk home..."

I said to it, I will send you to the starting point, okay?

It shook its body, not good.

I said, what is suitable or not? I am at the level of a novice literary writer, and you are just a novice literary writer who has written a broken beginning before. Why, if you don’t get to the starting point, do you still want to get into "Harvest"?

It shook its body again and said stubbornly, I don't want it. The Internet articles are too impetuous and no one can understand me.

I said, I don’t care if you want it or not, I just want to do it.

What else can I be arrogant about? In this era, Liu Cixin will troll people online, why can’t I write "The King of Love" online?

I know that people don’t expect to see much in-depth novels online, just like people don’t expect to find much thought and creative skills in a novel called "Drawing the Female Boss into the Group of Beauties".

But depth is actually not important. My goal is to make this novel so that everyone from university professors to middle school students can be moved by their emotions after reading it and enjoy it both elegantly and popularly.

I sent this beginning to Zi Liang (yes, my editor’s name is Zi Liang), and he was so moved that he kept talking about it. I said, otherwise, let’s write The King of Love.

He said, yes, but the early data will be bleak.

I said, it’s okay, just don’t look at the data for the first 100,000 words.

Then I started doing it vigorously.

As soon as I opened the book, someone forwarded the book's title summary to other groups, and was ridiculed by everyone. People said, "You can tell, he is indeed not a literary giant."

When I promoted this book on the platform, I also received various criticisms. People said, "Looking at the beginning, you can see that this kind of literary and youth self-promotion article is bound to collapse."

People say, "You said your book did not do well at the beginning. Do you think it will get better at the end?"

People say, "Readers don't like reading this kind of book at all. You are too arrogant to write this kind of book."

My grades have improved a little bit, and I have a lot of tap water. People say that I am a related account, and the data of my book is all brushed up. I opened a small account to promote it myself.

People said that the writing was too greasy and full of the sour and rotten smell of a middle-aged man.

People say that the writing is not good at all, and those of you who praise it have never eaten any fine chaff.

I feel that they do not understand my understanding of online articles. They also cannot see what techniques were used in writing this book. They also do not understand the readers.

It wasn't until this book reached the top of the new book list of Urban Frequency Division, and later on Sanjiang, that the voices of doubt subsided a little. But I know that there are still many people who can't understand it.

This book will be on the shelves at 12 noon today.

The first order for "The Beauty Group" is 4,000. I would like to set the first order target for this book a little higher, maybe 5,000.

You can’t lose to your old self, right?

According to the current writing progress, this book has only just written a prologue.

There are probably more than two million words in the following content. I have only written a fraction of it so far.

I hope that this book, which has been in the works for a long time, can bring something different to online writing. I hope that I can write well enough that people can read it.

At that time, I can proudly say to people:

Do you know?

In fact, the structure of Xiaobaiwen is very clear and is very suitable for learning writing skills.

They're actually great.

I used to study the books on the ranking list and Sanjiang very seriously. I was really serious. So serious that I want to cry when I think of myself at that time.

Now, it's your turn to study me.

…

According to common sense, an additional update rule should be placed here.

However, I haven’t saved the manuscript, how can I add it?!
Chapter completed!
