Previous Chapter

I opened my eyes and found myself in a familiar palace.

Zixiao Palace? How am I here? Haven't I already left the story world?

A series of questions came to my mind.

"Hahaha, Hongjun, you and I are the only remaining Chaos Gods and Demons, why don't you do one?"

Silver brilliance flickered, and a handsome Taoist appeared in front of me wearing a willow-leaf robe.

I'm Hongjun? Then what is his identity if he can appear freely in Zixiao Palace? Wait, if it's the setting of Chaos Gods and Demons, could it be that he is......

I habitually began to analyze the plot I was in.

- Hey, villain, what are you doing? Hongjun is in charge of the general trend of the Heavenly Dao, and he should be an enemy of the old immortal who represents the "escaped one".

A thought came from the Daoist on the other side, with the help of some kind of channel above this world. That's right, it's fundamental consciousness.

Ah, so I'm in this setting? The villain Hongjun, who represents the "general trend of heaven", and the protagonist who represents the "escaped one" raise their eyebrows. According to the plot, should I have done a fight with him, and then all the magic weapons were easily taken away by him and returned as a mockery?

Wait, why am I a villain again? In my memory, it's clear that I merged with the protagonist and entered the high-dimensional world, right?

- How did we get back into the story world? I remember that the author destroyed all the stories.

I replied.

- I said how you behaved weirdly, it turned out to be because of this. Have you forgotten? It's when we write an article in front of the computer, and then we actively break ourselves down and retreat to this plane.

The protagonist replied to me in fundamental consciousness.

- Why don't I remember?

I almost frowned, and I didn't understand why I was doing such a ridiculous stupid thing.

- It seems that there was a small mistake during the decomposition, and you lost this memory. What's the last thing you remember?

The protagonist asks.

- It's me, no, we want to create an article, based on our own experience, to tell a 'chess piece to break free from the saint chess player and eventually grow into a chess player himself', there should be a lot of popular elements of online literature, such as infinite streaming, urban, spitting, anti-crossing, online games, martial arts, etc., the name is Yi......

- Okay, I see. Looks like you've lost a lot of your memories. No way, while you play Hongjun, listen to me tell you from the beginning.

- Okay.

What exactly have been forgotten? I reminisced carefully, but it seemed as if someone had gouged up a piece of it, like a spoonful of ice cream that had already been eaten, and could not be replaced.

"Well, then we've done one. Let's go out of the world. ”

As I spoke, I took the lead and flew out of Zixiao Palace, followed by the protagonist with raised eyebrows.

- We had a hard time at the beginning of this article. Because you were hacked too badly before, you insisted on making the protagonist a monk. As a result, a large number of readers jumped out and commented, "I don't like monks, I don't read if the protagonist is a monk", "A monk can't marry a wife, and I don't read books without a heroine".

- I have only heard of Qiu Fu, but I have not heard of Monk Qiu. Why do they have such a big grudge against the monk? No wonder Zhun Ti will always be a villain. I'm so unlucky.

With resentment, I threw out the five-sided five-color flag and formed an innate five-element array to trap the Great Immortal. At this time, I haven't started the third sermon yet, and these magic weapons are in my hands.

- You have to figure out the situation, you are a villain, and it has nothing to do with whether you are allowed to mention it or not.

The protagonist replied with a mocking tone, and then waved his sleeves and directly took away the five-color flag.

- Hmph, what about later?

As soon as I raised my hand again, the four swords of Zhuxian formed a sword formation, and smashed my head and face towards the protagonist.

- Later, he wrote about the six reincarnation spaces, and the setting of infinite flow appeared. As a result, there were more objections, and readers simply lined up to leave messages saying "Why did it become an infinite stream, I don't like to watch it", "I won't watch it if there is an infinite stream" and so on. Even if we have the protagonist still vulgar, we can't lose popularity.

- It's really annoying, since you have persevered from the front, then you should have confidence in our writing, why did you give up in the middle? Is Infinite Streaming Necessarily Toxic? When you encounter a big hand, you can also turn stones into gold.

I sacrificed the Pangu banner and the Taiji diagram together to add some ingredients to the protagonist.

- It's not over yet. And then every time we release a new element and become complacent about this divine turn, we are only greeted with a flood of criticism and abandonment. The more elements there are, the more poison points you touch, and the fewer readers you have. Some readers will even jump out and point at our noses and say: "What kind of messy hodgepodge is this, I'd rather see you write a simple martial arts/Xiuzhen/Torrent" "You think you are writing about the dignity of the world, and you are not a great god".

The protagonist waves his sleeves again and puts the magic weapon away.

——In the last chapter of the Great Avenue of Affection, Gu Xiaosang has already been mentioned, of course what we wrote is not the first world!

I didn't want to refute, and with the help of the Creation Jade, I released three thousand avenues, turned into three thousand supreme supernatural powers, intertwined into a net, and pressed towards him.

- They don't care about that. Later, we gradually figured out that online literature has its own characteristics, and we can't just do it with our own ideas. Think about it, what are the conditions for becoming an author of the web? Isn't it enough to have a computer with Internet access, or even a mobile phone? This is estimated to be the era with the lowest threshold for creation in human history, and anyone can post their own on the Internet. Readers who are not satisfied with what you have written can find several that they are satisfied with in the blink of an eye.

- Can ......

I also want to say something.

- Why do you still watch it when you know that the plot of pretending to be forced to slap your face is cliché? Because they're good at it. It's an extremely simple and intense hobby, no, perhaps more appropriately described as needy, *. They want to get this monotonous stimulus from the outside world repeatedly. Just like a coffee lover, is it enough to drink a cup of coffee today? Won't he drink it again in the future? No, he'll have coffee tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Even today, after he drank this cup of coffee, he couldn't help but want to drink another cup. This analogy can be changed to eating meat, eating chocolate, drinking tea, watching movies, playing basketball, and even everything. Well, reading the web, of course, is also the same.

The protagonist snorted coldly and destroyed all the three thousand divine powers I released.

- Okay, let's take this example of drinking coffee as you said. Some people are content to drink instant coffee, while others are willing to pay for expensive freshly ground coffee. In this case, why can't some people be satisfied with watching the little white cliché Su Shuangwen, and some people are willing to watch more innovative ones?

The power of the Heavenly Dao is mighty, crushing the old immortal with raised eyebrows towards the protagonist.

- Premium coffee brands are never new. They often accumulate a reputation of more than ten years, decades or even hundreds of years before people are willing to buy them. If the commissary in front of your house claims to launch a premium coffee for 200 yuan per cup, will anyone buy it? This is the advantage of being the first mover, the first mover has accumulated enough capital and market, and can enter a more high-end field. For example, some of the online gods can talk about their feelings and thoughts. We are just newcomers who have just started writing, and if we want to be popular, we can only capture the interest of the majority of readers, that is, those pretending to be slapped in the face by our disdain in the book. The gods can choose to continue to be an online literary McDonald's or turn into a Michelin restaurant, but novices cannot.

The protagonist lightly dodges the power of the Heavenly Dao, just as he replied lightly in his fundamental consciousness.

- Villain, I ask you. If you were to eat at a new Sichuan restaurant, what would you order?

He raised his hand and pointed at me, and the erratic blue light wrapped around me, and he actually began to counterattack. It was the same in my consciousness, and he began to question me.

- Of course, order a few basic spicy dishes to try his level, such as fish-flavored shredded pork, mapo tofu, kung pao chicken and so on.

The blue light ignored my defenses and entangled me, and when I looked closely, it was a jasper-like willow branch.

- Why don't you try a pineapple pork? What if their home is delicious?

I struggled a few times, but I couldn't break free of the boneless wicker. Even with my answer, I was a little angry.

- Am I crazy? Why should you go to a Sichuan restaurant to order Gu Yu pork? If I wanted to eat Cantonese food, I wouldn't have entered the door of a Sichuan restaurant!

The old immortal laughed and withdrew the magic weapon refined by his body.

- That's it, you don't go to a Sichuan restaurant to order Cantonese food, because when you choose a Sichuan restaurant on the street to eat, you actually have a preset or expectation in your heart: I plan to eat Sichuan food, and it must have a taste of chili pepper or something. In the same way, when you click on a certain type of network, such as Western fantasy, then you have certain presuppositions or expectations in your mind: swords and sorcery, castles, churches, kings, knights, etc. But what if you read a few chapters and find that the church believes in Taishang Laojun? After a few more chapters, you find that Taishang Laojun's teachings are full of chemical equations, how do you feel? This goes against the presupposition in your mind, do you feel inexplicable, disappointing, or even abandon the text? That's how ours failed.

- You mean......

I'm starting to understand a little.

——As a novice chef, you should learn the most basic Sichuan dishes, and then start to learn more difficult dishes, and even integrate and create your own dishes. A hundred guests come to eat your family's Sichuan cuisine, maybe they all eat Kung Pao chicken and clove with shredded pork. It wasn't until they become regular customers of your restaurant that maybe one or two of those 100 people started looking forward to eating something new. As for the remaining 90 or so guests, hehe, they may just like your fish-flavored shredded pork once a week, and they don't care if you launch a hundred new dishes.

- That's... What about those who are anti-routine? They're also very marketable!

My answer was a bit weak, which doesn't bode well for me to be persuaded by the protagonist.

- Really? Anti-routine, counterattack, anti-Soviet, anti-stallion...... These are just gimmicks and not substance. If you look carefully, you will find that in these, it is often the Su against the Soviet, the stallion against the stallion, and the routine against the routine, in essence, it is still the soup but not the medicine. The heroine of the anti-Mary Sue has an anti-Soviet strategy system bound to herself, isn't this a golden finger thicker than the Mary Sue? The male protagonist of the anti-stallion, he subdues the heart of the male protagonist of the stallion in various worlds, and opens the male harem, isn't this exactly the anti-stallion with the stallion? The protagonist who wears the counterattack quickly, every time he crosses over to the villain, he defeats the protagonist wittily and bravely, he has never failed, and he can perfectly deal with various identities and situations, isn't this another kind of protagonist aura? Isn't it just another monotonous routine to keep traveling through various worlds and repeating the task of defeating the protagonist? That's right, I'm talking about you, villain. Your previous experiences are just routines.

The protagonist points out mercilessly.

"You ......" I don't even have to perform, and now Hongjun's face is a true portrayal of my mood.

"You've lost." The protagonist raised his eyebrows, and the old fairy said coldly.

- You lost, villain.

He said the same at the level of fundamental consciousness.

- Villain, it is a joint decision for you and me to return to the world. If those thoughts didn't convince you just now, how could you have willingly broken up with me again into two people in the first place? Even if I take it out and say it again, you will still be convinced.

"yes, I lost." I sighed.

- Is that all there is to it? Is this online literature?

I couldn't help but ask.

——Where there is a generation of carriers, there is a generation of literature. Each generation of literature has its own characteristics. The inscription on the oracle bone is extremely simple, which is to save effort in carving. The reason why there are many dialogues in the works of the hundred schools of thought is that bamboo slips are easier to popularize than oracle bones, so that the oral language can be recorded. After the invention of paper, articles became longer and longer because of its lightness and cheapness. After the advent of modern printing, it became possible to print the same book repeatedly on a large scale, and newspapers and periodicals were born, which gave rise to the concept of manuscript fees and the emergence of writers who wrote full-time to make a living. As for the Internet age......

Without waiting for him to finish, I subconsciously continued:

——The network has a large amount of information, so the network should be updated daily to prevent it from being forgotten by readers. The Internet is an entertainment tool, so in order to bring readers pleasure, it is necessary to repeatedly emphasize those routines to meet the needs of readers. The Internet is a highly tribal and circular place, so there are many types of the Internet, and readers tend to look for a certain type of information, wanting a similar experience rather than being different.

An idea just flowed through my head as if I had thought it out — no, it was what I thought it was! It was something I thought about before I returned to the world with the main character.

- You remember.

The protagonist smiles.

- yes, I remembered.

I muttered in my fundamental consciousness.

I see, I finally understood what the two of us were going to do when we returned to this imaginary wilderness. We must continue to carry on this villain's routine of complaining about the desolation of the brain, keep repeating, and never end.
