After dinner, Sun Quan made a pot of tea, came to the study, turned on the computer, and began to code words after a while, although he went to the capital for a few days recently, the update of "Sword of Killing in the Clouds" has not been thinned, and it still maintains a new chapter every day.

Although there are not many chapters, it is an attitude that proves to fans that he is a good talker.

And today, although he just came back from the capital, he didn't think about accompanying his wife and children tonight, so he didn't code.

Belch......

Well, he actually thought about it, who wouldn't want to sleep with his wife in his arms when he went home for a few days?

But reason drove him to the study, ready to code two or three chapters before going to sleep, anyway, tonight his wife is asleep, and she won't run.

Sitting in front of the computer, drinking tea, he opened the starting point, logged in to the author's background, opened the page of "Sword Killed in the Clouds", and swept his eyes in the column of the monthly pass, it turned out that the effect of adding more is still good, although only one chapter has been added every day in recent days, but after a few days, "Sword of Killing in the Clouds" has been ranked 6th in the total list of monthly passes.

This is all spontaneous voting by book fans, and if he sends one or two single chapters asking for votes, the effect will be better.

After reading the monthly pass, I also looked at the number of people who gave tips today by the way-33.

It's not bad, he remembers that before the recent addition, the number of people who rewarded that day seemed to be 9.

After that, he glanced at the posts in the book review area a few times, and the content of the posts in the book review area also satisfied him, most of them discussed the characters and plots in the book, and some of them said that he had updated recently, and there were very few posts talking about the variety shows he made.

I was a little relieved, and the motivation to add more was enough, and he didn't rest for long, so he opened the document and started to code words.

When the first chapter was finished, he sighed and got up to take a pee.

I opened the door of the study, and as soon as I walked out, I heard a familiar singing voice from downstairs.

"I know it's a disaster, why don't I know what to do...... It's better not to see, it's better not to read, so that I don't fall in love with you, and one more step of rubbing shoulders will fall step by step......"

Suddenly hearing this song, Sun Quan's footsteps stopped, and he looked back in surprise in the direction of the hall downstairs, but he couldn't see the downstairs hall in his position, and his footsteps paused slightly, he turned around and walked towards the staircase, there was more than one bathroom upstairs, but he went downstairs and went to the downstairs bathroom for a small relief.

When he came out of the bathroom, the singing in the hall continued.

"A thought at a glance, a thought with persistence, is destined to be a moth to the fire......"

This lyric caught his ears, and reminded him that the title of this song seems to be "One Thought Persistence", a song he liked very much back then, the theme song of "Step by Step".

A song many years ago, when he heard it again, the familiar lyrics and familiar singing voice made him feel a little trance for a while, as if he had returned to the time when he was chasing the drama "Step by Step" before he was reborn.

As an online writer, he needs to keep up with the latest trends and learn from the strengths of other works.

Not only do he have to pay attention to and learn the popular online articles, but he also has to pay attention to and learn the success of those film and television works, such as the shaping of characters, the weaving of plots, and some popular phrases, famous sayings of film and television dramas.

Only by continuing to learn can he barely grasp the trend of popularity and not be quickly eliminated by readers.

Before the rise of the second dimension, he had always been very confident in his grasp of the trend of popularity, although he may not write the most popular subjects, but at least he has always been aware of what is the most popular in each period.

It wasn't until the two-dimensional fandom suddenly rose and quickly became popular that he felt powerless.

Because he was in his thirties at that time, the pressure of life had overwhelmed him, and he could still find time to watch the hottest online articles recently, and watch the movies and TV series with the best reputation, but the second dimension was ......

He hadn't watched the anime of the island country before, but he also knew that the animation industry of the island country was very developed, and there were many successful works, and almost all successful anime episodes of the island country were very large, often hundreds, or even thousands.

Where can he still find so much time to watch so many anime?

But if you don't look at it, the two-dimensional works that have risen rapidly and become more and more popular, he will not be able to start, and he will never be able to write.

During that time, he often had a sad feeling in his heart.

He knows that the readership of online articles has been changing, from the post-80s to the post-90s, and then the post-00s.

When the post-80s generation was the main body, he knew what this group liked to watch, and when the post-90s generation was the main body, he did not feel that there was a generation gap between himself and the readers.

But when the post-00s generation became the main force of online literature, and the second dimension became more and more popular, he finally felt the existence of the generation gap.

There is a big generation gap between him and the post-00s group.

There are many things he watched and experienced when he was young, but the post-00s have not experienced it, and it seems that many post-00s people grew up watching anime, so the category of two-dimensional has sprung up.

And his grandson can't write that type.

He once thought that maybe one day he would be eliminated from the online writing industry, either because his writing was not good enough, or because he was not good enough to structure the plot......

He only didn't expect that the reason would lie in the generation gap between himself and the readership.

This is the reason why he feels sad.

It was also a big reason why he decided to abandon his original way of writing and try to write commercially.

Because he is afraid that if he doesn't make some money quickly, in a few years, he will be eliminated from this industry.

It should be said that his sense of crisis is right.

Because when his book "My Decathlon" achieved a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, he also noticed that many new books of old gods collapsed on the street.

What is a collapse of the street?

To put it bluntly, it is a batch of street fighting.

Batches of Level 5 authors open new books, so that their mothers don't know them, and god-level and platinum-level authors open new books, but they also pounce a lot and produce few results.

After seeing more similar things, the pessimism in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Although he hasn't pounced yet, and even gone against the market, the results of that book "My Decathlon" are better than any of his previous works, and he has earned more, but he knows that he will be eliminated sooner or later.

The result?

He hasn't ushered in the departure of readers yet, but he has ushered in 404 first.

......

Standing outside the bathroom door, Sun Quan listened to the TV singing from the hall, his thoughts drifted a little far, and he thought a little too much.

It wasn't until the end of the song that he came to his senses, smiled faintly, and walked to the other side of the hall.

As he expected, his wife, children, old man, old lady, Xu Mei, Cai Yanan, sister-in-law Wang and others were all watching TV there.

And what is being broadcast on TV is "Step by Step", and what surprises him even more is that it seems to be the first episode of this drama that is being broadcast at this time.

Because the picture broadcast on TV at this time is the heroine played by Liu Shishi walking on the neon city street, Sun Quan remembers that this is the plot before the heroine of "Step by Step Shocking" travels to the Qing Dynasty.

He still remembers that the heroine's way of crossing is very vulgar, anyway, the online article has long used that way of crossing - crossing after being electrocuted.

It's been electrocuted, right?

The thought crossed his mind for no reason, and he wanted to laugh a little.

"Daddy...... Daddy......"

Sun Jiexin was the first to see Sun Quan, and happily opened her arms and ran towards him.

Then the eyes of Yuan Shuiqing and others were also attracted, and when they saw Sun Quan smiling and hugging their daughter, Yuan Shuiqing smiled and said, "The manuscript is written?"

Sun Quan kissed his daughter and shook his head, "Not yet, I'll write it later, I heard the sound of your TV here, come down and take a look!"

The old lady interjected with a smile, "Why don't you come with us?"

Sun Quan shook his head.

Yuan Shuiqing said: "Recently, when I watched TV, I always saw the trailer of this drama, because the copyright of this drama is in your hands, so I watched it and saw how it went." ”

Sun Quan glanced at the picture on the TV with a smile and nodded, "Well, look at the picture quality...... It must have been a good shot!

Before the words fell, on the TV, the heroine played by Liu Shishi had already stepped on the wires scattered on the ground, and an arc of electricity flashed and scurried......

Yuan Shuiqing: "......"

Xu Mei: "......"

Old Lady: "......"

Old man: "......"

......

Sun Quan seemed to smell the aroma of barbecue, and after a quiet moment in the living room, the nanny Wang Sister-in-law smiled reluctantly and praised: "It's really a good shot!

Everyone was a little embarrassed, except for Sun Jiexin, who couldn't understand it at all.

Fortunately, the picture on TV soon changed, and the heroine woke up to find herself sleeping on an antique flower bed, and there was a maid in ancient costumes next to the bed.

This sudden change in painting style stunned most people in front of the TV.

Like Xu Mei, the old man, the old lady, and the nanny Wang Sister-in-law, where have they heard of any time crossing before? Suddenly seeing such a plot on TV, I couldn't understand what happened for a while, wasn't the heroine electrocuted? How did it become ancient?

Only young people like Sun Quan, Yuan Shuiqing, Cai Yanan and Sun Jiexin were not surprised.

Sun Quan has written too much.

Yuan Shuiqing was influenced by him and had seen something similar.

Cai Yanan may not have seen anything similar, but as a young person, she has still heard of the concept of crossing, as for Sun Jiexin...... She was too young! too young to read, so she was not surprised.

So: it's better to be young!

Sun Quan didn't stay downstairs for a long time, hugged his daughter and played with her for a while, then returned her to Yuan Shuiqing, said hello to everyone, and went back to the upstairs study.

Before he left, including Yuan Shuiqing, everyone in the hall, except for Sun Jiexin, was attracted by the novel plot of "Step by Step".

A modern woman has traveled to the Qing Dynasty, and the novelty is enough to make them curious to watch a few episodes, and the costumes, makeup, props, and picture quality of this TV series are very good, at least for now, it is ahead of most TV series.

Coupled with the beautiful scenery and handsome men and beauties in the play, they are all pleasing to the eye!

Back upstairs in the study, Sun Quan picked up the teacup and took a sip, still thinking about the premiere of "Step by Step" tonight, this drama...... Compared to the version of the original plane, it hasn't changed much.

Not much affected by his rebirth.

Except for the copyright of the original work being taken over by his salted fish studio, and it came out a year or two earlier, other changes have been minimal.

The plot of the original book has not changed.

The production company is still Tang Film and Television, and the main actors are basically the same as the original, and the biggest change may be in the behind-the-scenes members of this show.

For example, directors, screenwriters, etc.

He doesn't remember who wrote and directed the version of "Step by Step" in the original time and space, so when this drama cooperated with Tang Film and Television, the director and other positions were arranged by Tang Film and Television.

He is not sure how much the change in the behind-the-scenes team will affect the show, is it a good change?

He's not sure!

Just a few glances at the random downstairs just now, he felt that the quality of this drama seemed to be okay.

Character modeling, costumes, props, etc., are all OK.

Of course, he is not superficial enough to think that the success of a drama depends entirely on the beginning of a drama.

Just like an online article, a good beginning can make a book gain good popularity in the early stage, but it doesn't mean much to the subscription results when it is put on the shelves.

Because if it's just a wonderful beginning, when a book is two or three hundred thousand words later, when it hits the shelves, the readers who were attracted by the beginning have already left.

The same goes for TV series.

The first one or two episodes are indeed very helpful in attracting the audience, but if the plot after the beginning is rotten, or the characters collapse, then ...... Where the plot is rotten, the audience will be lost, and where the characters will collapse, the audience will also be lost.

The good thing about TV series over online articles is that if a TV series has a good beginning, it can be sold at a good price when it is sold to TV stations.

And what about online articles?

Unless it is the kind of buyout online article, if you write it, when a web article collapses, the manuscript fee will plunge from when.

This is also one of the main reasons why it is extremely difficult to make a lot of money by writing online articles.

You've been writing online articles for three years, and you've been able to grasp the 300,000 words at the beginning of a book?

Well, that's good! Then when you get a book on the shelves, you should be able to get a good first order on the shelf, and the manuscript fee for the first month on the shelves will also be good.

But what about after that?

Your plot collapsed? 300,000 words later?

It's a pity that for you, it's the peak when it's put on the shelves, and every month you write after that, it's going downhill, and your manuscript fee will get less and less.

Well, you've been writing books for five years, and you've been able to master the first 1 million words of a book?

Then you can earn a little more, and after 1 million words, you'll be ready to wrap it up!

What? 1 million words is too little to make much money?

That's fine! After 1 million words, you can still earn some living expenses.

......

In front of the computer, Sun Quan thought for a while, gathered his thoughts, adjusted his state, and continued to code, whether this version of "Step by Step" can be successful, after tomorrow, he can see it, and the daily ratings of this show can be found on the Internet, and the audience's reputation for the latest episodes can be found every day.

He was looking forward to it.
