Late at night.

In front of the computer, after Sun Quan typed out the three words "the end of the book", the whole person relaxed, exhaled, leaned back in the chair, took out a cigar and lit it, and looked at the document in front of him with amazement.

It's a bit like stepping into the time of the Sage.

"The Last Wish of the Dead" has been written to this day, and it has finally been written.

It should be a surprise to many people to finish so quickly.

In fact, in his own original plan, the book would have to be written for at least a year or two.

But as he wrote, he changed his plans and didn't want to write for that long.

There are many reasons for this, but there are only two main ones.

First, because the book was made into an online drama, in order to reduce the difficulty of adapting the book, Sun Quan consciously compressed some of the side plots of the book.

Some irrelevant characters, he simply deleted them in the outline section.

Otherwise, when the crew is filming, they must find an actor to act, and his salted fish film and television grass creation is not well-known in the industry, nor does he have any connections, and it is actually very difficult to find many actors with good acting skills to make cameos in a few scenes.

It's better for him to simply delete some unimportant characters.

Originally, he was used to writing online articles, and he was used to writing a little side plot to make up the number of words, after all, online articles are a bowl of rice...... Money is calculated by the number of words.

If a book is finished with only a few hundred thousand words, it won't make a lot of money at all.

The number of free words in the new book period is 200,000 or 300,000 words.

Coupled with the one or two months of preparation before the publication of a book, it is even less cost-effective.

This is not what he did alone, this is usually the phenomenon in the online literature circle.

In recent years, there have been more and more works that can easily write three to five million words, which is proof of this.

Even the great gods in the online literature circle are the same.

But I have to say that it is extremely difficult to adapt an online article of three to five million words, whether it is adapted into a movie, a TV series, or an online game.

Not to mention anything else, just to say that it is so long, how many of the screenwriters, directors, assistant directors, and actors have the patience to read the original work of three to five million words?

It's just embarrassing for those people.

And how likely are the screenwriters, directors and actors who haven't even finished reading the original book to be able to do a good job in a TV series or movie?

For the gods in the online literature circle, it is uncertain whether one of their works can sell various copyrights when the book is opened.

Even when a book is written, it is still uncertain.

All they know for sure is ...... Write the book a little longer, a little longer, to make more money.

Even, if you write longer, maybe there will be a greater chance of selling the copyright.

Because of the online articles that can sell game adaptation rights or film and television drama copyrights these years, regardless of anything else, the popularity and popularity must be big enough and high enough.

If a book is written long enough, it will naturally have a long enough exposure, and only when the exposure is high enough can it attract game companies or film and television companies to buy copyrights.

Therefore, whether you are a great god or not, when you write a book, you hope to write it a little longer, and the benefits are too many.

As for the number of words, when it is adapted into a game or a film and television drama in the future, will it be too difficult for the adaptor?

So who cares?

Anyway, no matter how difficult it is, there is no need for the original author to bother.

This is the common choice that leads to different positions.

Sun Quan thought the same way before, so the few books he wrote after his rebirth were not too few words.

But this time, during the filming of "The Last Wish of the Dead", he changed his preconceived notions.

Because he no longer expects other companies to buy the copyright of his book, he can shoot it himself, so instead of writing millions of words to earn so much more manuscript fees, he is willing to compress and compress the plot of the book and try to inject as little water as possible.

It is not only convenient for adaptation, but also convenient for the actor to take the time to read his book.

Second......

With Yuan Shuiqing's pregnancy, childbirth, and the start of filming of "The Last Wish of the Dead", the time he can use to code words is much less than before.

Especially after the filming of "The Last Wish of the Dead" started, he squeezed out the code word time every day, stayed in the crew all day during the day, and came back at night, and had little time to accompany his wife and children, so he nested himself in the study and coded until midnight.

Every day is like this, and although this kind of life is fulfilling, it is also quite tiring.

At that time, he was faced with three choices.

Or, choose a good writer in his salted fish studio to be his gunner, and he will give the outline and outline to the gunman to write.

In this way, he can concentrate on the crew of "Dead Wishes".

But if you do this, the negative effects are predictable.

He has so many book fans now, and there are definitely many smart book fans, and he has changed a gunman here to write, and many book fans will definitely be able to notice the change in style.

Then, it won't be long before the reputation of his grandson, the pen name of Salted Fish and My Old Sun, will be ruined.

Therefore, he is not willing to choose this choice.

And the second option......

is that he gave up going to the crew every day and handed over the crew to Wang Zheng and others, or, he occasionally went to take a look, and still focused most of his time and energy on the writing of the book "The Last Wish of the Dead".

This choice is undoubtedly the most beneficial for the book "The Wishes of the Dead".

But the quality of the web drama "Wish of the Dead" may be negative.

Wang Zheng's directing ability, he does not deny.

But he still doesn't feel at ease, after all, Wang Zheng's main job before was to be a variety show director on Blueberry Channel, and nominally, he was still an assistant director.

And variety shows and online dramas are different fields.

In addition, the reason why Sun Quan decided to shoot this drama was to imitate the shooting method of the TV series in Bangziguo, improve the rights of the screenwriter, let the screenwriter control the plot direction of a drama, weaken the director's function, and let the director only be responsible for shooting skills and pictures.

Therefore, for Sun Quan, he doesn't want to choose this second choice.

So that's left ...... is also the third choice - to compress the length of the book "Wishes of the Dead", and delete some irrelevant side plots that can be deleted.

It was with this decision that his book was finished tonight.

Of course, because he still has tens of thousands of words in hand, the serialization of this book at the starting point can last for about half a month.

But for himself, the book ends tonight.

He remembered that the book was released on August 24 last year, on Halloween.

Until now...... It's just over half a year.

The serialization time is really not long, and the word count is not very large.

It's less than 1.5 million words, and counting the parts he hasn't published yet, the total word count is just over 1.47 million words.

That's all.

This is also because the update speed of his book in the early stage was very fast, and at that time, it was updated almost every day with 10,000 words, otherwise, the total number of words would not be so much.

This is the least word count of the books he has written since he was reborn.

He broke his habits.

Therefore, seeing that the book has ended at this time, his feelings are particularly complicated.

But he doesn't regret ending the book like that.

Be!

After ending so quickly, the manuscript fee for his subscription on the Internet, and the manuscript fee on the physical publishing side, will be much less.

But there are also benefits.

And there are many benefits.

First of all, book lovers are blessed that they don't have to chase millions of words anymore to read the book and see the finale of the book.

It saves time and money.

Of course, there may be some book lovers who feel that they can't get enough.

But overall, the book has a little less word count, which is really good for book lovers.

Secondly, he saved a lot of time, which can be used for the filming of "Dead Wishes", as well as post-production and publicity, as well as the management of companies and studios under his name.

You can even save some time to spend more time with your wife and children!

Thirdly, the sooner the book was finished, the sooner he could have prepared for the next new book.

As we all know, the sale of various copyrights of an online article is generally not considered by the number of words in that book.

is like the copyright price of "Ghost Lantern" in the original time and space.

"Ghost Lantern" is the top online IP of the original time and space, whether it is the game copyright or the adaptation rights of film and television dramas, the price is the top in the industry.

But in fact, the word count of the two original "Ghost Lights" is not too long.

At least in the online literature industry, the length of those two "Ghost Lights" is short.

So......

For Sun Quan, it is actually cost-effective to finish a book early and open a new one.

Because even if he sells the copyright of "The Wishes of the Dead", even if the number of words in his book doubles, the price may not increase much.

And with his current fame and reputation, if he reopens a book, he will be able to sell another wave of copyrights.

You can easily earn back all the less money earned for the book "The Last Wish of the Dead", and more than that.

Who doesn't know that compared to the copyright income of a book, the subscription part and the publication part of the manuscript fee are just a drizzle?

In front of the computer, Sun Quan smoked a cigar, turned these thoughts in his heart, and smiled faintly.

Extinguish the cigar in the ashtray, what about the new book?

He hadn't figured it out yet, and he didn't have a clue.

He plans to take a break for a month or two, just taking advantage of this time to finish filming the drama "The Last Wish of the Dead", and by the way, supervise the post-production of the show.

……

It was still early at 12 midnight, just after 11 o'clock.

So early, Sun Quan didn't feel sleepy.

Years of coding career have already made him develop the habit of going to bed late.

In addition, after the end of "The Last Wish of the Dead" tonight, his heart was empty, and he didn't feel sleepy, so after thinking about it, he went on the author forum.

If you want to take a look at the recent trend in the industry and see if anything has happened in the industry recently, you should pass the time.

He came to the Jianghu section of the author's forum.

saw more than a dozen posts about his son's full moon wine today.

He was a little surprised.

And the title of these posts ......

"Watching the full moon wine, I have a feeling: Salted fish and my grandson should be the best online god at present, right?"

"The company's market value is hundreds of millions, and there are studios and film and television companies under its name, is it still an online writer?"

"Hehe, my son has set up dozens of tables for full moon wine, a certain god is really high-profile!"

"I'm also a writer, and I also gave birth to a son this year, but my son only held two tables of full moon wine......"

"It's really a drought of drought, a waterlog, we can't even eat, but a few gods are worth hundreds of millions......"

"Winner takes all, the online article is really a winner takes all! How much money did a salted fish and my grandson earn?"

"I just saw the scale of the full moon wine of a certain god's son, and I decided that it would not cost me to read his books in the future!"

"Salted fish and my grandson should be a real winner in life, right?"

"The twin sons of a certain god really won at the starting line! That's how social classes are formed, right?"

……

Similar post titles, Sun Quan casually looked at them, and saw more than a dozen.

After only reading a few of them, his brows furrowed slightly.

He felt something.

Today's full moon wine of his son seems to have aroused the hatred of the rich among some people.

He had seen this phenomenon many times before he was reborn.

For example, when Shenji participated in the author's annual meeting, he was envied and hated by many writers in the industry because he made a string of Buddhist beads with pure gold and wore them on his hand.

For example, Sanshao once went abroad and spent tens of thousands of yuan to drink a glass of wine, which was in the news, and he was also hated by many peers in the industry.

For example, broad beans revealed that they bought a building on a TV variety show......

These are all examples!

This industry seems to have always been like this.

When everyone is hitting the street, it is easy to make friends, and generally there will be no peers to hack you, hello, hello, hello, everyone.

But when there were people in the former street fighting team, there were people who did not follow the rules and made a fortune.

Then it is easy to be looked down upon.

If the person who has made a fortune is a little more high-profile, it will be easier to attract attacks.

In this regard, Sun Quan has actually been expecting it.

This is also the main reason why he liked to keep a low profile in everything before, because he knew that most people had a hatred of the rich, and he used to have a little bit of it.

If someone is so much richer than himself, it is easy to be hated by others.

If wealthy people still take the initiative to show off their wealth, it is easier to arouse the hatred of the rich in others.

In recent years, he has been consciously keeping a low profile, trying not to be in the limelight and not showing off his wealth.

But this time, he still seems to have stimulated the nerves of some people's hatred of the rich.

In this regard, he smiled slightly wryly, not knowing what to say.

What can be said?

This time, he really didn't want to show off his wealth or anything, he just wanted to give his two sons who had just completed the moon a decent full moon wine.

He already has three children, and he should not have a fourth child in his life, and when his daughter is born, he has simply dealt with it.

And this time, whether it was his daughter-in-law Yuan Shuiqing, or Yuan Shuiqing's grandfather and grandmother, or his own parents, or even relatives and elders, they all advised him to have a full moon wine.

He really didn't want to show off his wealth, and even when he took the stage to speak with his child, he announced the opening of the banquet in a few words.

The reason why so many people are invited......

A lot of people come on their own initiative.

For example, the gods present.

The other branch managers, he just wanted to take the opportunity of his son's full moon wine to win people's hearts and deepen their feelings.

Inviting those book lovers to participate is also to give back to everyone for their support over the past few years.

But these things, in the eyes of some peers, turned out to be his grandson showing off his wealth?
