Chapter 087 - Reading the Manuscript!
A hot pot, Chen Mo and the four of them ate for a full hour, the three girls were all big-eyed and small-bellied, when there was still half of the dishes left, Zhang Qian took the lead in raising the white flag to surrender, and not long after, Qi Min and Fang Ling also raised the white flag to surrender one after another, and in the end, Chen Mo ate all the remaining dishes into his stomach in line with the principle of not wasting it, and there was no doubt that Chen Mo ate it.
I have to say that the prices in 2002 were quite cheap, Chen Mo and they ordered so many dishes, many of which were meat dishes, and it was less than one hundred and sixteen after eating, and in 2018 in another world, they ate this meal in a chain hot pot restaurant with a good environment, and it was not less than four or five hundred, and the hot pot restaurant they generally ordered also cost two or three hundred.
At the checkout, Chen Mo saw that the price was not expensive, and the three daughters were only over fifty when they were evenly divided, so he did not rush to pay the bill, which also made the three girls reply to his wish.
After dinner, Chen Mo found a relatively quiet drink shop (Nuanhan Xiaozhu) nearby and invited the three girls to drink, and the main three girls asked him to read the manuscripts, they can't read the manuscripts on the street, right?
Chen Mo and the four of them came to the warm cold building, ordered four drinks at random, and then began to enter the theme of today's meeting, "Reading the Draft".
Chen Mo didn't give any of the three girls special treatment, he read the manuscript from the top in the order of stacking the three notebooks.
First of all, Chen Mo looked at Zhang Qian's manuscript, opened the notebook, Chen Mo couldn't help but light up when he saw the Juanxiu handwriting on it, he finally understood why there was a paper score in the exam, because a clean paper would not make the eyes of the marking teacher suffer, and in the same way, a clean manuscript would not make Chen Mo's eyes suffer.
Title: "The Peerless Favorite Queen of the Domineering Emperor", "The Agent Empress of the Domineering Emperor", "36 Strategies for Escaping Marriage", "You Didn't Discuss the Favor of the Three Thousand Weak Waters", "The Sole Favor of the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards" (undetermined)
Wow~ So many alternate titles?
Chen Mo saw that Zhang Qian had prepared five spare titles for the new book in one go, and asked with a smile: "Which of these titles do you like the most?
Zhang Qian blurted out, "How do you know?"
Fang Ling raised her hand and replied: "I know this, because this title is in the first place!"
Chen Mo snapped his fingers with a smile: "Yes, that's what I thought." ”
Qi Min glanced at the five titles in Zhang Qian's notebook, and analyzed: "This should be easy to guess, most people will put their favorite book titles first, but it is not excluded that they will think of better titles to add later." ”
Zhang Qian said: "Actually, I like all five titles, and I feel that the stories I write can match these titles, but on the contrary, I still prefer "The Peerless Favorite Queen of the Domineering Emperor", if there is no accident, I may use this title in the end." Of course, I'll listen to you, the editor, but don't tell me I'm not cut out to write a novel. ”
It's not easy to conceive a novel, and it's even more difficult to present the story in her mind with words, these days, Zhang Qian's mind is thinking about the plot of the novel, eating and sleeping, if the editor Chen Da, who is a professional, judges that she is not suitable for writing a novel, Zhang Qian estimates that she can't accept this thunderbolt from the sky.
Although Zhang Qian is only creating with the mentality of trying, this does not mean that she has no intentions, it can be said that this immature novel has exhausted Zhang Qian's countless brain cells, and it is her brainchild!
Chen Mo saw Zhang Qian's nervous face, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, the threshold for online authors is not as high as you imagined, I see that your titles are all good, each has its own highlights, since you have said that the story you wrote can match the title of the book, then the text must be not bad, I will help you take a look, and give you advice after reading it." ”
For online novels, the title is the most important façade of the work, and it is also a summary of a novel, and it is the finishing touch of the whole text.
Don't look at Chen Mo's short time as an editor, it's only been a month, but this doesn't mean that he has read fewer novels, before becoming an editor and author, Chen Mo was first a reader, so just based on Zhang Qian's five book titles, he judged that Zhang Qian wrote "Crossing Sweet Texts".
As for whether Chen Mo's judgment is correct? This has to be known by reading the text.
After finishing speaking, Chen Mo returned his attention to Zhang Qian's manuscript, only looking at the title of the book is followed by "novel introduction", in fact, the introduction is also one of the façades of the work, a good novel introduction is the essence of the outline, a few crosses or hundreds of words can outline the general framework of the novel, so that readers can see at a glance, which helps the author retain readers.
"She, the ace agent of the 21st century, is intelligent and independent, and was caught in a space storm during an agent operation, and turned into the unfavored concubine of the prince of Great Xia in an unknown time and space!
He, the peerless prince of the Great Xia Kingdom, was domineering and powerful, and one day he suddenly discovered that a certain little maid who was abandoned by him dared to scold him, beat him, run away from him, and disobey him...... no longer put him, the prince of a country, in his eyes.
The prince of Great Xia is used to being strong, how can he tolerate being coldly scolded by a small disgraced servant who once thought he was the sky?
He decides to take revenge on her, first give her a sweetness, let her take him as heaven again, and then he will beat her from heaven to hell!
But why did he feel that his heart was falling little by little in the process of capturing her heart?
In order to please her, he promoted her rank again and again, from the maid to Fengyi, Zhaoxun, Chenghui, Liangyuan, and Liangdi...... Why did the higher her rank rose, the farther she fled?
Condensation, I promise you to be the queen of Great Xia, the three palaces and six courtyards will favor you alone, and the three thousand weak water will only take you a scoop, please don't run away again, okay?"
It seems that this introduction is a bit long, but fortunately, Chen Mo can understand it, with this introduction, Chen Mo dares to be sure that what Zhang Qian wrote is through the sweet text, but he doesn't dare to guarantee that the female protagonist will abuse the male protagonist?
Chen Mo's eyes moved down, and found that there were only two characters in the character introduction of Zhang Qian's manuscript, namely the female protagonist "Condensing Xi" and the male protagonist "Ji Hao", fortunately in the novel world in 2002, "Brother Ritian" had not yet been born, otherwise in the name of "Hao", it would inevitably be complained by readers and see "X Ritian".
From the character setting, Chen Mo can see that the love of the hero and heroine does not have too much blood and abuse, but the two people's views on love are very different.
Chen Meng looked at the text seriously, and sighed in his heart while reading, Zhang Qian deserves to have a talent for writing online essays as high as 83, even if it is the first time to write a book, the whole text seems to be flowing like a teacher, the plot is reasonably arranged, the ups and downs, and there is a desire for readers to follow it, but there are still flaws in the novel.
In fact, any online novel, including those written by top gods, cannot be exhaustive and perfect, but judging by Chen Mo's years of experience in reading books, if the novel does not lose its level in the future, it may not be impossible to adapt it to film and television when the era of big IP comes.
Yes, Chen Mo is more optimistic about Zhang Qian's debut novel, this novel is well packaged, and then pay attention to some details, it will definitely become the flag-carrying masterpiece of the starting point female frequency!
