Although Zhang Yuancong is very self-controlled, he is not the kind of person who can't listen to opinions. In fact, in the final analysis, there is nothing wrong with his literati style. It's just that the current era is a little out of place. Of course, the brothers in the dormitory didn't dislike Zhang Yuancong's surname, they just liked to joke about Zhang Yuancong.

"Okay, I'll read the first three chapters of your novel first, if the first three chapters are not written, you will basically be finished."

In modern society, there are many books. Unlike when I was a child, in addition to textbooks, there were only a few miscellaneous books. Therefore, the post-80s generation has generally read Jin Yong's novels, but for the post-90s, I am afraid they have only heard of Jin Yong's name. As for those who have seen it, there are very few. At this time, for online novels, it is necessary to keep pace with the times. Capture the reader's taste to write a red book.

Therefore, the first three chapters of a novel are particularly important. There are a lot of online novels at the starting point, and if you haven't explained the background of a novel in the first three chapters, and you are still there in ambush, it is estimated that the readers have already run out. According to several bedroom brothers, Zhang Yuancong's writing is okay, but Chen Jiayi estimates that it may be that Zhang Yuancong has not mastered the specific writing method.

Click to read, Chen Jiayi first looked at the first three chapters of the novel.

About five minutes later, Chen Jiayi had finished reading.

This is a fairy tale, Chen Jiayi can be sure. However, in the first three chapters, the protagonist has been struggling with the rags of the 21st century. Chen Jia took a look at the table of contents and found that the protagonist didn't start hanging up until chapter 10, and then traveled to a strange world of Xianxia.

In order to understand the Xianxia world written by Zhang Yuancong in detail, Chen Jiayi jumped directly to Chapter 10...... Finally, Chen Jiayi understood why the novel written by Zhang Yuancong fluttered.

"Brother Yuan Cong, with my skills in reading novels for more than ten years, your novel, even if you write it again, may not be popular."

"Oh, no."

Zhang Yuancong thought that Chen Jiayi would appreciate his novels. Unexpectedly, Chen Jiayi and Yang Yong, [***] have the same vision.

"See, Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, it's not just us who said that your novels are not good."

At this time, Yang Yong and [***] were playing a game on the side, and after hearing Chen Jiayi's words, they made a fool of themselves on the side.

"However, your writing is okay, and your storytelling ability is also good, with a little modification, you may be able to write a red book."

"Really?"

Although Chen Jiayi is not the author, Zhang Yuancong heard that Chen Jiayi had just analyzed the head. It seems that he knows a lot about online novels, and then he hurriedly asks for advice.

"Of course it's true."

In fact, most novels in the world have certain skills. Whether it's an online novel or a physical novel. Perhaps for those who are relatively high in art, they focus not on the art of fiction, but on the dissemination of culture. Obviously, most of the novels now do not meet this standard. As an ordinary person, you don't need to aspire to that height.

Chen Jia is the most popular online writer in today's Internet industry, and even in the physical novel market, it is also very popular. In addition to the newspapers, millions of physical books have been sold. This is just the sales of Zhuxian, and the ethereal journey is even more, with nearly 10 million sets already sold. This is all genuine, and the pirated version is estimated to be the same as Jin Yong's novel, which has spread to every corner.

This also makes Chen Jia very popular, basically the domestic novel market, no one is invincible. Now Chen Jiayi is still very young. Perhaps, in terms of the quality of his name, it is not as good as some other older generation of fiction celebrities.

Looking at Zhang Yuancong's humble look of seeking advice, Chen Jiayi did not hide his selfishness. In fact, the writing skills of novels have been passed down to a lot in later generations. Like the nine-line writing, the routine of determining life and death in the first three chapters has been widely circulated. As long as you study carefully, you can generally achieve a good result in the online novel market.

"First of all, you can't do this text, you only entered the main topic after the tenth chapter of the opening chapter, that is, you began to enter the world of Xianxia. So, is the content of the first ten chapters nonsense? Of course, you will say that you are telling the story of your past life to add a sense of substitution. However, in fact, the previous life had little to do with the Xianxia world. It's OK for you to just spend a few hundred words on the introduction, and you actually spent 30,000 words. So nostalgic for your past life, why are you still traveling. As a reader, when faced with dozens of novels in front of me, I must choose something else that will attract me when I read it. But yours is too grinding. Perhaps, even if someone clicks on the name of your novel to see it, it is estimated that it will be flashing after reading it......"

"It makes sense, I originally thought that the things of the past life would be more clear, and after the crossing, the reader would be able to understand the protagonist's surname more clearly. Listening to you say this, I can completely simplify the content of the first 30,000 words to 300 words. ”

Zhang Yuancong is a smart person, otherwise, how could he be admitted to Tsinghua University. In the face of Chen Jiayi's guidance, with just a little explanation, Zhang Yuancong already understood.

"This is a big taboo in online novels, don't write something irrelevant at the beginning, or bury any foreshadowing."

Like Jin Yong, a book with more than 100,000 words at the beginning that has not yet entered the protagonist may be placed in the online novel market, and it will also have to be put into trouble. Of course, whether Jin Yong's novel will be published in the online market is also a debate. Some people bluntly said that they must be pounced, and with the current mood of Internet readers, I am afraid that Jin Yong's novel would have been thrown into the Pacific Ocean long ago. However, some people believe that even if Jin Yong's novel does not enter the main topic at the beginning, it should be able to make up for it if his pen is too powerful.

The two sides quarreled back and forth, but neither persuaded anyone. After all, such a thing cannot happen, and no one has any evidence to show it.

However, both sides actually have one thing in common. That is, to write an online article, you can't write nonsense at the beginning, you should go straight to the topic. You are a fairyman, directly a fairyman. You are reborn in the city, and you will be reborn in the first chapter. If you're still arranged, how should the protagonist be reborn? Whether it was jumping off a building, or being hit by someone. Or if you are dumped, you have nothing to do and are depressed for a few days, and then you will talk thousands of words nonsense, and then you will be reborn, and it is estimated that the reader will scold you to death.

"Well, I remember that."

"The second point, this one is more important."

The first three chapters are going to get to the point, and for novices, it may be clear at all. However, if he didn't order, he certainly wouldn't have thought of it. It's not very important, but it leads him to the right path. Once you enter the doorway, it is more important to write the text. This is related to the question of whether your novel can be popular.

"I took a look at your entire Xianxia cultivation system. It's basically the same as the Ethereal Journey, but you're too orthodox. The so-called, the first one who uses the cultivation system is a genius, the second one is a smart person, the third one is an ordinary person, and the nth person uses it, and it doesn't reach the average height in the plot, and it's estimated that it's going to be finished. This is also the reason why Xianxia has no market after 2011. It's because there's not enough innovation.

Secondly, in the process of writing, you only want the protagonist to rise to the top step by step. I don't even want to use the means of cheating, so that after your tenth chapter, including the first thirty chapters, you are still cultivating there...... In the end, I didn't cultivate anything. Together with the disciple brothers, they didn't win the battle......"

The protagonist is abused, and the reader sees that he is being abused. The protagonist was abused, and Ben was fine. After all, there are a lot of people who can break out in abuse. However, you have no reason to break out after being abused. Because, what he wrote is completely too orthodox, if you want to take revenge, I don't know what year Ma Yue.

After saying so much, Chen Jia looked at Zhang Yuancong, but this guy didn't react.

"Well, actually, I'm talking about Goldfinger."

To put it bluntly, it is the golden finger in online novels. If there is no online novel with a golden finger, it is generally necessary to pounce. Like rebirth and the like, his golden finger is a prophet of all things to come. Including a lot of historical novels, I travel to history, and I know the direction of history clearly. A large number of people traveled to the Tang Dynasty and snatched Li Bai's poems and wrote their own font names.

"Yours is a Xianxia novel, and moreover, it's a classical Xianxia. As a modern person, you travel to this completely strange world of Xianxia. Well, crossing is useless for you at all. Because, judging from your style, you haven't seen the knowledge of modern society fused with the exercises of this Xianxia world. Your protagonist is still completely cultivating step by step. I want to ask again, why do you have to cross so hard. At the beginning, he lived directly in this Xianxia world, and then, when he entered the Xianmen, it would be over. Just like Zhu Xian, he has no fun at all......"

"Zhuxian doesn't have a golden finger."

At this time, Zhang Yuancong took his book and compared it with Zhu Xian.

Zhang Yuancong wrote this novel, and he should have been influenced by Zhu Xian. Moreover, Zhang Yuancong likes the surname of Zhang Xiaofan, the protagonist of Zhuxian. Then it has been under the big bamboo peak, keep working hard, and slowly achieve. So, his novels also follow this system, only letting the protagonist slowly cultivate and finally step to the top.

"Who said that Zhuxian doesn't have a golden finger?"

It seems that Zhang Yuancong's understanding of the golden finger is too one-sided. But it's okay, with Chen Jiayi, an Internet master, by your side, you can ensure that all the online novel routines are stuffed into your brain.

"Zhang Xiaofan, one person cultivates two schools of kung fu, isn't it a golden finger? Zhang Xiaofan's cup is a treasure soul devouring stick, isn't it a golden finger. For another example, Zhang Xiaofan has learned the highest Dao method in this immortal cultivation world, the Book of Heaven, isn't it a golden finger? ”

Goldfinger doesn't have to be reborn, it doesn't have to be crossed, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is to give the protagonist a means of cheating. Just like in Jin Yong's novels, there are actually golden fingers. Like Guo Jing worshiped a powerful master, and learned the Nine Yin True Scripture, it is completely a golden finger. If you let him practice the martial arts of the Quanzhen Sect every day, it is estimated that even Yang Kang will not be able to win. It's just that ordinary people just think it's a normal plot. It's a pity that no one can see that these are actually cheating.

Probably, you have to ask, what is the purpose of cheating. The answer is simple, in order to help the protagonist level up. Why do you upgrade, it's simpler, pick up girls, step on people, pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, and dominate the rivers and lakes...... The guarantee made a large number of readers see the blood boiling.

"This golden finger is actually like this......"

Finally, Zhang Yuancong understood.
