Having made up his mind, Li Qing began to think about the pen name.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Eight Strands prevailed, and the imperial examination was a channel for ascension. It's just that the road to the imperial examination is too deep, and after all, there are only a few people who can be named on the gold list, and most of the literati are losers.

They were failures, studying hard for more than ten years, but as a result, they did not get anything, and they did not learn any skills to make ends meet.

So, I can only write novels and make money to spend.

In the Ming Dynasty, most of the novels were written by failed literati, and as for those gold list titles, successful literati one by one, who had time to write. At that time, when writing novels, there were many large-scale and over-the-top plots, and when they were written, they might have become erotic novels, such as "The Golden Vase of Plums".

In the parlance of the time, it stinks.

It's just that what about the smell, as long as you can earn money, it's enough, as for the festival, wash and sleep.

Of course, these novels were not seen in the light and damaged their reputation, so they replaced their own names with pen names.

The origins of many authors of Ming Dynasty novels are unexaminable.

And the author of "Golden Vase Plum" has a lot of conjectures, but no one knows who the real author is.

The pseudonym is to hide himself.

And now, Li Qing wants to change to a pen name in order to hide himself. As for the "superfluous person", this pen name is no longer available.

"To write romance novels, you must have a corresponding pen name, and the pen name is best feminine and deceptive!"

"Tanabata, no; Drunk alone at night, no; Snow Lotus, no......"

One by one, the pen names flashed, and Li Qing was all negative.

Finally, Li Qing took out the paper and wrote his name, Li Qing.

Looking at his name, he thought about it.

A pen name is not a random name, but should have a meaning in it.

"Old Man Qin is my nobleman and gives me a glimmer of hope......"

"Old man Qin, call me Xiaoqing, it's easy to mishear it as Xiaoqing, Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin, etc. Xiaoqing seems to be the green snake in "The Legend of the White Snake". The Legend of the White Snake is a romance novel; And I'm going to write romance novels, so I'm going to call it Green Snake! ”

It was finally finalized, and the pen name was "Green Snake".

Just looking at this pen name, Li Qing hesitated again.

The word green snake seems to be too thin.

It was changed again, "The green snake has tears".

The pen name was finalized, and Li Qing began to conceive a romance novel.

In the memories of my previous life, there are really not many romance novels.

There are too few and too few who have achieved classics by writing romance novels; On the contrary, there are many romance novels that have become bestsellers, but they are only bestsellers.

These bestsellers are not so much top-notch quality as they are sought after by the world.

It's like if you want to become a best-selling novel, and you have shallow knowledge, the best way is to lower the reader's IQ.

And those romance novels in the previous life all lowered the reader's IQ.

And those readers whose IQ has not been lowered naturally feel bad.

"When writing romance novels, the first priority is to lower the reader's IQ!" Li Qing wrote this line in his diary.

After writing, Li Qing closed his eyes again and began to keep reminiscing and sifting.

A lot of romance novels are just bestsellers; And those romance novels that have become classics have all transcended the shackles of romance novels and entered a new field.

"Dream of Red Mansions" is a romance novel, but it transcends the shackles of romance novels and involves life, fate, society, philosophy and so on. No one will simply regard Dream of Red Mansions as a romance novel.

"Notre Dame de Paris" is a romance novel, but it goes beyond romance novels, involves the essence of human nature, and has the shocking power of the times.

"Norwegian Wood" is a romance novel, but he pointed out that era, the confused generation, the lost generation, is no longer a simple romance novel.

"La Traviata" is a romance novel, but it points out the beauty and ugliness of the human heart, surpassing ordinary romance novels.

"Gone with the Wind" is also a romance novel, but it writes about the indomitability of Americans, the struggle of Americans, just like "The Old Man and the Sea", which has inspiring power and is no longer a simple romance novel.

Li Qing thought about it, closed his eyes, and thought about it.

Savoring these feasts, and then looking at the romance novels on the list, Li Qing only felt a huge gap.

Compared with those love triangles, four-cornered loves, disease-free **, and pretentious novels, there are too many transcendents.

Once you have tasted the feast, eat some junk food, and it will be tasteless.

"That's it!"

Li Qing suppressed the restlessness in his heart and began to conceive of a new book.

If you don't write romance novels, if you want to write, you have to write them.

"Step by Step" is a novel that was on fire before the crossing.

Li Qing decisively gave up.

In the Celestial Empire, why are Qing court dramas famous, but Ming palace dramas, Song palace dramas, Tang palace dramas, and Han palace dramas are not famous. There are many reasons, one of which is that the Xinhai Revolution was not complete, they were not confiscated, and many of them were too manchu, and they were too rich, and they had money to fund the braided play.

In this plane, there is no Qing Dynasty, and there is no Manchurian, and the Qing Dynasty has long been destroyed by that traverser.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem" is not good.

"Langya Bang" is not good.

One thought after another flashed, and Li Qing kept shaking his head.

gradually became a little desperate, not because of anything else, but because I read too few romance novels in my previous life.

"I hate less books with prescriptions!"

Li Qing smiled bitterly again.

…………

After a night's sleep, Li Qing seemed to be much more awake.

I turned on the computer and typed a line on it: Norwegian Forest.

The story structure of "Norwegian Wood" is very simple, that is, it tells the story of a male protagonist Toru Watanabe who is entangled with Midoriko while dating Naoko, and it is difficult to choose between the two;

The characters who appear are very simple, just Toru Watanabe, the Expendables, Kizuki, Naoko, Nagasawa, Hatsumi, Midoriko, Reiko, etc., less than ten simple people.

The entire novel has twelve chapters, less than 200,000 words,

There is no water-injected plot, no brain-dead plot, no pretentiousness, everything is natural and simple.

The structure is extremely simple, there are no ups and downs of the plot, there is no love of life and death, there is no wonderful **, and there is no worry, even if some of the heroines die, it is like falling leaves from a tree in autumn, and the whole book is extremely simple.

But it is precisely because of simplicity that there is a sense of beauty.

After reading this book, you will realize that simplicity is so beautiful.

This book is a great tragedy.

In "Dream of Red Mansions", many people died, and there was a rhythm of all the death.

And "Thunderstorm" has a rhythm of all dead light.

And "Norwegian Wood" is also the rhythm of the dead light.
