No matter how popular "Mandarin Duck Knife" is, it is just a story published in a second-rate magazine, although it has caused a certain impact on a small scale, and even made the sales of "Wuxia Weekly" hit a record since its inception, but the popularity gradually subsided after only a week.

Although other magazines in the martial arts industry noticed "Mandarin Duck Knife" and even took it to the editorial department to study and discuss it, they didn't care, and they didn't even pay much attention to the unfamiliar name "Flying by the Clouds".

The reason is that the length of "Mandarin Duck Knife" is too short, even if it can attract the enthusiasm of some readers, after all, it is not as good as a novel that can create a complex enough story and enough characters with personality, and there are inherent shortcomings.

There are also master-level authors in the short story world, but there are too few authors who can really become famous with short stories.

If you want to succeed, you still have to write a long story, write to make money, and you have to write a long story, and the more words, the better, if you can write two million, you don't write a million, if you can write five million, you don't write two million, if you have the ability to write a super long story of 10 million words, it will be enough to eat for a lifetime!

Chai Yunfei may be a good author, but it's just good, and it doesn't deserve the attention of other magazines.

The Singularity Literature Forum also returned to calm after a period of madness.

After the number of members reached 20,000, the growth rate slowed down significantly, although there were still 3,500 increases per day, but it was already within a reasonable range.

And with the appointment of a group of moderators, Zhou Lin finally got rid of trivial station affairs and could happily be a shopkeeper.

His final decision was to release the "Creator Benefits Terms" for the site.

The most important of these are the three systems of "full attendance", "reward" and "monthly pass".

Full attendance: All works published in the Singularity Literature Forum, after 30,000 words, you can apply for full attendance benefits, although it is only 200 yuan per month and there are many restrictions, but it is a major benefit, at least so that those authors who work hard to code words can get a little reward.

Reward: The forum has launched a "Singularity Coins" system, where members can obtain Singularity Coin by recharging, creating, replying to posts, doing tasks, playing mini-games, etc. Singularity coins can be used to reward favorite works, and when the singularity coins of a work accumulate to a certain amount, they can be exchanged for Chinese coins.

Monthly passes: Members can spend Singularity Coins to cast monthly tickets for their works, and the forum will make a ranking list according to the number of monthly passes, and the top 10 works on the list at the end of each month will receive a variety of material rewards.

As soon as the creator benefit clause came out, the entire forum was boiling.

Although there are many literary websites on the Internet, even large websites such as Phantom Sword World and Falcon Literature only have subscription functions, and readers who like or dislike a book can only say a few words in the comment area, and there is no other way to express their ideas.

In a way, this is an inequality between the author and the reader.

Tips and monthly passes amplify the reader's energy at once, like the author's way of writing, think the story is exciting enough, like a certain protagonist, then tip and vote!

On the author's side, although some people put forward different opinions, thinking that tipping is a bit like accepting handouts, and the monthly pass system may give rise to some black-box operations, most of them are still welcome.

The reason is also very simple, the forum itself does not have any way to make money, although there is a way to recharge to get Singularity Coin, but in the case of other ways to obtain it, it is conceivable that most people will not really pay for it.

So this welfare clause is more like the website is feeding the creators at a loss, and the creators are grateful for this feeling alone.

I don't know if I was moved by feelings or stimulated by substance, in short, within 24 hours after Zhou Lin released the welfare terms, there were more than 50 original works on the forum at once, and they are increasing at a rate of more than a dozen per day.

Although there are a lot of indiscriminate works, Zhou Lin can't care so much about it, because he is going into retreat.

After entering the second week of June, the college entrance examination is already infinitely approaching.

July 6th and 7th are the days of the college entrance examination, and there are still twenty days left, so Zhou Lin must work hard even if he is confident.

He turned off his mobile phone, turned off QQ, and spent a few days sending out the twenty-day update codes of "Zhu Xian" and "Blasphemy" to Zhou Mingming, and then disappeared.

As soon as Zhou Lin went into retreat, many people who wanted to find him were anxious.

Zhang Zhifang couldn't find Zhou Lin and was scolded by Geng Yunhe.

Wang Baokang couldn't find Zhou Lin, and his heart was at a loss.

Even Zhang Xueyuan was looking for Zhou Lin and wanted to inform him of some of the decisions of Tianlai Company, but he couldn't find anyone.

Zhou Lin didn't care about things outside, he sat next to Xu Yunyue every day when he arrived at school, honestly endorsed the questions, and seized the last twenty days to rush his grades again.

Time flies quickly but fulfilling, as every day there is a new development.

In the morning, he brought her a cup of soy milk, and she brought him a drawer of xiaolongbao, one of them loved to drink salty bean curd and the other loved sweet bean curd but never quarreled.

In class, he told her how to write essays, she explained to him math problems that he couldn't learn no matter how he learned, and occasionally played backgammon with circles and crosses on graph paper to rest his mind.

At noon they ate together in the cafeteria, whispering and telling jokes, not caring about the envious or curious glances cast around them.

Occasionally take a walk on the playground in the evening, watching the wind, watching the sunset, watching the sunset, and seeing everything is beautiful.

It is said that teenagers don't know what it's like to be sad, but Zhou Lin is in his thirties, but he seems to have really returned to his youth.

Look at her smile, listen to her words, accompany her through a section of the best years, regardless of his future exhaustion, regardless of his future resentment and parting, all put aside, and only enjoy the present.

Every second, every minute, every hour, under the unspoken emotional warming, floated away like a soap bubble until the last day of June.

There are five days left before the college entrance examination, and the school is on vacation, and all students go home for the final revision.

Zhou Lin and Xu Yunyue stood on the bus platform, and five cars came in a row, none of them got on the bus, just chatting.

Talking about the past, talking about the present, just not talking about the future.

Even if he crossed over from the future, Zhou Lin didn't dare to talk about the future, he could only say to Xu Yunyue seriously: "Take the exam well, don't forget what you promised me." ”

"What did I promise you?" Xu Yunyue showed a sly smile.

In Zhou Lin's memory, she is resolute, stubborn, crying eyes, and the back of turning away.

Those sweetness have long been diluted by separation, and those lingering have long been decisively cut off, but at this moment, Xu Yunyue's smile touched the softest place in his heart, making Zhou Lin seem to have returned to the desperation of his youth, and said softly: "I keep every word of yours in my heart, you can't cheat!"
