Xiao Chusheng: How to deepen the plot of Tangtianwen, how do you think about it? Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

A Woman: Dig deeper? I just write according to a main line, farming, is a process from weak to strong, this is a good development, right? The characteristic of the house bucket is that it is interlocking. So, one thing after another, without thinking about in-depth questions, everything that happened in the plot has already been written in the outline

Xiao Chusheng: How do you grasp the rhythm of the plot when you write a long farming article? How to write the farming essay so that it doesn't seem verbose.

A woman: How to write the farming essay so that it doesn't seem verbose, the farming essay can easily write 1.8 million, or tens of millions, because you can write it since the protagonist was a child, as long as you write the plot related to the protagonist that makes him grow from weak to strong and grow step by step, then no one will feel your verbosity. However, the plot here depends on the author's ability to make up the story, and if the story is not engaging, it is verbose.

Xiao Chusheng: I agree with this statement, when Jin Yong wrote about the Condor Shooting, he started from the protagonist's father, which accounted for a small part of the book, but when we read it, we didn't feel verbose.

A woman: When it comes to the rhythm of the plot, I personally think that a small climax is followed by a small climax, advancing layer by layer, reaching a big climax, then slowing down, hooking, and then continuing with a small climax, I personally think that the rhythm of the plot is like this.

Xiao Chusheng: How to deal with the fatigue caused by the plot being too compact in the house fight, after all, it is all fast food text now, it is good to look at those little points or two, how to stretch the plot to make everyone feel happy but not cheesy, in the main article of the word "fight", how to ease the plot, so that it does not make the reader feel too nervous

A Woman: As for the plot to be compact, if stretching the plot doesn't make the reader unbearable, I personally don't handle this issue very well. If you write too much, too light, no one will read it, you have to write to move people, write to people's hearts, so that people will be willing to read it. As long as you are moved, there will be no sense of compactness, and there will be no feeling of stretching. Taneda Wen is a bit taboo about stretching plots, right? After all, it's a short matter for some parents, and if you stretch it again, it's not good.

As for the family fight, it is written happily, this is not my forte, sweat, I recommend you to watch the "Bad Young Husband" of the round and unbroken god, and you can laugh while fighting people's teeth. Farming is an ordinary life, find the bright spot in the ordinary, and move people with this bright spot.

Xiao Chusheng: This has relatively high requirements for life experience, so it must be written well, and I think those who write well are all married people.

A woman: a married person? However, as long as you have more experience, anyone who likes to observe can do it.

Xiao Chusheng: There are many people who are more concerned about a question, how long can farming be popular, and now on the list of female frequencies, farming is basically occupied.

Woman: First of all, I'm going to say that I'd love to know the answer to this question! Personally, I think that whether the literature is red or not is a change in people's mentality when they read literature, right? It depends on when the reader gets tired of farming, and empathizes with what kind of literature is not loved.

I think that the red color of farming is related to the increase in strength in life. Actually, Xiuzhen, the text of the other world is not not popular, the predecessors have written too much and it is too good, and the imagination space is not too big, right? Therefore, the writing makes people feel similar, and the same goes for farming.

Xiao Chusheng: I personally feel that the Demon Fairy Wen can get up, as far as the female frequency is concerned, let's not talk about the main station.

A woman: I don't feel it, I don't feel it.

Xiao Chusheng: As authors, do we want to see the next fashion trend? When I say predictions, I'm talking about professional authors.

A woman: Personally, I think it's better to write about what you're good at than to follow trends. For example, I have tried to write a light-hearted and funny article, but it is not that I can't write it, I have abandoned a pit there, and it is too tiring to write.

Xiao Chusheng: Well, yes, if there is no love, the article will not be able to be written, and if you move yourself, you can also move others.

A woman: I heard a friend of mine say that she was moved to cry when she wrote an article, but the readers were not moved.

A big bag: how to deal with complex character relationships? Woman: Do you make an outline or write notes?

A woman: When I write an essay, the outline is the outline, and the character note is the character note.

Yi Lan: How to shape the character of the character, like the small cabinet in the cloud scroll, is very well shaped, which makes people hate itchy.

A woman: That cabinet has a prototype, if we bring in the real situation or emotions in the real world, then this person will become the person in your mind in the text, which can be hateful or lovable. You can be artistic, I took a man as a prototype, and added the other two men who did nasty things, and I became a cabinet classmate.

Yi Lan: Is that the majority of characters archetypal, such as mother-in-law and mistress?

A woman: mother-in-law depends on the complaints of colleagues and children, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, eternal problems, little three? Is there still a hateful thing about this?

The circle is not broken: which aspect does a woman focus more on when creating characters? Is it a response to an incident? Or is it more dependent on the author's description? Which is more intuitive to write more about her mental activities and the like? Because I used to like to write about mental activities, but then I deliberately restrained myself, so now I write less and less mental activities, and my writing is gradually biased towards dialogue flow, and I am a little confused, and I don't know where to start when writing about a person.

A woman: When I write an essay, I first write the story, and then revise the text several times, according to the character of the character, and cut the plot somewhat, which is my habit. When I write an essay, there is a lot of mental activity, and this will become a hard wound in the essay

Mai Yan Maiyu: What are the most prominent aspects of the character's personality?

Circle is not broken: Demons, in fact, this problem can't be solved by just looking at whose works, because the problems encountered by each person are not the same as a woman: I personally think that psychological descriptions can't be missing, right? I'm not going to lose too much, because my writing seems to be like that from the beginning. There is a lot of mental activity, and some of the character's traits are also done through the description of mental activity.

The circle is not broken: Well, there must be no less psychological description, but too many words are said to be hypocritical, and after restraint, it will inevitably increase the proportion of dialogue.

Jimo Mushuang: How to get rid of conversation flow?

Yuan Bupo: I may be a little misleading everyone, everyone's situation is different, what I said about "dialogue flow" is just for me personally, I think I have a lot of dialogue in my text, but I feel that I can't lack any sentence, and I feel repetitive with psychological words, so there will be this problem, I am entangled in whether a plot is better expressed by dialogue, or more accepted by readers with psychological expression.

The words of the conspiracy will slowly unfold from one point, may start from one sentence, or from one thing, but it will never be as simple as just writing about the surface

A woman: So, everyone writes differently, so they deal with the same problem differently, which is also the so-called style, right?

Preliminary review of the science fiction unlimited flow invitation letter: outline plus the first three chapters (review key outline) review: 30,000 words plus outline (review key text control) Price: 30 yuan / 1,000 words or more (determined according to the author's strength and fame) Quantity: 1 Background: Examples: 1. Alien civilizations discovered the existence of the earth and believed that human civilization was too low-level to dominate a habitable planet, in an attempt to wipe out mankind. However, according to the previous experience of destroying attempted civilizations, when each civilization is facing an existential crisis, the entire race will grow rapidly in a short period of time, and even some extremely powerful individuals will emerge, growing enough to threaten alien civilizations. In order to successfully destroy human civilization, alien civilization = began to carry out research on human beings, test the limits of human growth, and capture some human beings to enter the 'infinite world' for trial. Or: set the main character and others a reason why these things happened, the truth of the story. Conspiracy theories are preferred. The above background settings are for reference only and can be played freely. Characters: It is recommended to have a main team of 3-5 people, depending on the progress of the story, facing different opponent characters and dungeon characters in different scenes. There should be girls in the team, more than 2 people, with very different personalities, and they should also have very different attitudes towards the male protagonist, which is convenient for comparison. The relationship between the characters and the contradictions and conflicts should be prominent. The overall atmosphere of the team is positive. If there is a better character configuration, it can also be changed freely. Scenes: Urban, historical scene plots, don't Xianxia, mythology, you can extract and adapt from foreign games and movies, don't clearly indicate the name, don't use the original plot name. The scene pattern is as small as possible, not too grandiose, about ten plot scenes. Each scene is divided into a small pre-scene and a final battle scene as much as possible. Plot focus: Most of the plot reflects the crisis of life and death, interspersed with bland and funny plots. It can depict certain characters showing the inferior nature of human beings, and the protagonist or main supporting characters showing positive spirits such as kindness and fearlessness. Two plot lines: one is the clue in the infinite flow, and the other is the line in the city to find the reason to break the game. Reality: The infinite world is interspersed with descriptions of the real world. For example, the dispute between the teams in the real world can be used to analyze and guess the secrets of the infinite world by using the resources of the human world, triggering the competition between various forces and teams. Upgrades: Realistic and sci-fi type equipment skills, try not to appear mythical and fairy type abilities. The improvement of strength is mainly based on equipment replacement, and equipment and skills are marked with levels. Economy: Survival points (exchange for most items and props, obtained from most scene tasks) and battle points (exchange for rare items and props, obtained from difficult scene tasks and battle missions) The name can be changed by yourself, or you can create an original economic system. Key points: The plot is multi-lined, with the protagonist's perspective as the main shot, while taking into account other perspectives, the trial tasks can be arranged to act separately. The conspiracy of the alien civilization to test the limits of humanity was not known at the beginning, and it was gradually revealed in the plot, and the characters' exploration and speculation of the entire 'infinite world' should be reflected in 1-2 mission scenes, and part of the focus of returning to the real world was to analyze the secrets of the infinite world.

Top of the list: Our protagonist, he is the main spy of a mysterious part, or the main special forces of a mysterious force, or the main killer of a mysterious group, after all, this main force or disgusted with the livelihood of swords and swords, finally decided to return to the city.

The terrifying strength on the back of the twelfth LOLI finally arrived, and the protagonist realized that the city where he lived was already in danger, with gangsters, ***, foreign killer groups, and a superpower team from the United States......

Twenty-fourth: The protagonist gets up one day and finds that he has actually crossed the ......

1. To have collectible value, the gold finger must be unique, that is, only the protagonist in the world has this gold finger, as long as the protagonist is hanging, this gold finger will not appear in the past, present, and future, so that this gold finger is collectible, and the reader will have a unique feeling when he substitutes the protagonist. For example, the vial in "Mortal" is such a unique treasure, plus it is completely immeasurable. The big five elements in "Law Phase" are also very buggy, but they are all supernatural powers, as long as the protagonist wants to, he can pass it on to countless people, although this kind of gold finger is now exclusive to the protagonist, but it has always been possible to become a bad street, so it has no collection value at all. 2。 You must never expose your golden finger and never let others know about it, even if it is a pillow person. Plot plausibility and humanity are secondary. The most important thing is that the reader will have a feeling of "I have a big secret that only I know" when he substitutes for the protagonist, and this kind of sneaky behavior is far better than pretending to be 13 (especially after pretending to be 13, he will generally be robbed), for example, "A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as stealing". 3. To have practical valueThe so-called practical value means that the golden finger should be harmonious and unified with the article itself: the lower difficulty should be harmonious with the world setting of the article: for example, if mortals are difficult to upgrade, then upgrade in terms of upgrade speed; If the living environment is harsh, then open a golden finger on the basic needs; The world is too dangerous, so open a golden finger on the life-saving skill; In historical fiction, we must first open a golden finger on how to integrate into society, if this golden finger is not opened well, the whole article will be dragged down from beginning to end. The more difficult ones should be in harmony with the center of the text (if the article has a center): for example, the golden finger of "The Saints" is opened into the Ark of the Covenant; The novel of national salvation should be opened on how to unite the progressive youth. Because there are few small things in the center, other examples cannot be cited, so everyone can understand. 4. To be sustainable, some things are useful in the early stage, and they will be garbage in the back (just like the important supporting roles in the front will become a trick in the back), so this golden finger should be used for a lifetime without changing the attributes (why can't you change the attributes will be discussed later). For example, the function of the vial in "Mortal" has never changed, but it can be used from beginning to end. The reason for this is that it's a strategic thing (see below). 5. To have a single function, to put it bluntly, it is clearly defined, don't come to anything, you can usually farm, and at the critical juncture, you suddenly "have a lot of light" to save the protagonist's life. This kind of messy and ill-defined gold finger will directly destroy the whole setting, it's like saying "I'm the author, and the gold finger I gave my protagonist is the universal wishing technique", this kind of book was not sensible when I was a child, just look at Saint Seiya, and when I grow up, I'm not interested in playing any more "I'm the first in the universe" game. For positive example, the vial in "Mortal" has only one function: to ripen plants. The negative example is the Donghuang Bell of "Buddha is the Way", and I don't want to talk about the rest. I haven't figured out the function of the East Emperor Bell, which can attack, super defensive, collect people, and set people, and finally release a star chain or something, I don't think Pangu Banner at all, Taiji Diagram is as powerful as the East Emperor Bell. 6. To have downstream development, that is, the so-called strategic level: to decide the victory or defeat on the battlefield through the command and tactical level. To put it so mysteriously, in fact, just take the small bottle of mortals as an example: all kinds of rare plants in mortals are things at the tactical level, which directly improve the strength of the protagonist; The vial itself does not directly increase the strength of the protagonist, but it can ripen and cherish plants to achieve far more effects than all plants. And the so-called developmentality has three points: the downstream thing has practicality: this is obvious. Sustainable: The vial can ripen all plants, so as long as the plants are constantly replaced, it will naturally be sustainable. It is better for the downstream things to have treasure value: all kinds of spirit grasses in "Mortal" are also extremely rare, and they cannot even be transplanted, so the vials that can ripen the spirit grass will naturally rise. 7. To be able to overpower other gold fingersWhen it comes to the gold finger in "Mortal", the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is the vial. Are there any other golden fingers for mortals other than vials? Of course! And all over the place! But everyone pays attention to the vial, and everyone automatically ignores the other gold fingers even if they see it. Why? This vial is like a big flag, attracting everyone's attention: the function of the vial is detailed in "Mortal", and it is too helpful for the protagonist, throughout the book, the most precious time The function of this golden finger has always been fixed, so everyone's strong impression of it can be maintained. Imagine that the function of a thing changes every day, and it is estimated that everyone will be completely impatient with it in less than a week. Under this powerful impression, readers are equivalent to being brainwashed into "the golden finger in "Mortal" is a vial", and everyone ignores the Void Tianding and the like: in addition to the impression is not as deep as the vial, the Void Tianding is really not as good as the vial Goldfinger. 8. Don't take the lead. No matter what kind of cheat finger is just a setting, it serves the characters, the plot and the like. Since the setting should be concise and easy to understand, a small category in the setting should naturally be more concise, otherwise the whole book will discuss what this golden finger is, and the plot and characters will be robbed of the scene. For example, the Pangu world in "Xianao" and other inner world settings are noisy, but if the author says that this Xianxia novel is written about the heroic invincible city-building model, then I have nothing to say. 9. Scarcity is precious. Goldfinger, it's the size of a finger, if there is a missile model of goldfinger, it will be thunderous: the small bottle of green liquor in "Mortal" is completely impossible to store, and it takes a few days to produce a drop, so the story can develop slowly, and the protagonist can face the problem of fish and bear's paws. If that vial produces 1 cubic meter of green liquor a day, then I immediately clicked on it---- I have read novels for so many years, and I think that this kind of little white text is no worse than the author. In the last sentence, let's open the gold finger if you want to, but we have to understand what this gold finger is, don't you can go to the sky today, you can go to the ground tomorrow, and you can sneak into the women's toilet the day after tomorrow. After all, this is a golden finger, not omniscient.

Hello everyone, I am the author of "The Personal Bodyguard of the School Flower", smoking gun. Today, I am honored to have such a rare opportunity to communicate with you and make progress together, and I plan to divide this lecture into two parts.

In the first part, the following topics will be covered:

1. Talking about the commercial writing of online articles;

2. Detailed explanation of examples: how to build wonderful suspense, strengthen the attractiveness of the story, and make readers want to stop;

The second part is a free questioning session. If you want to ask a question, you can prepare a question in advance. o(∩_∩)o

2r“k4K$l0x.|7A0C'V

Okay, let's get down to business:

7C%R8]“S，e:i+q2Z0_

The first topic: a brief discussion on the commercial writing of online articles:

“u)q-}7K. X(a9U&|*x#n

What exactly is commercial writing? In fact, to put it simply, it is how to write to make your novel more profitable. So how can it be better commercialized?

To put it simply, in fact, this involves two major aspects.

The first aspect is to understand the reader's reading psychology and needs, referred to as what the reader wants to see? The second aspect is the ability to satisfy the various appetites of readers, which I like to call commercial writing ability. In other words, only if you know what the reader wants to see, you can satisfy the reader through your commercial writing ability, so as to write what the reader wants to see.

9x8K%r9\!_0u/a

If you don't know what readers want to see, how much help can you make no matter how strong your writing skills are? For example, people want to watch bloody fights, but you write affectionately and gently. People want to feel the romantic scene of the peach blossom fragrance in the garden, but you write a stinky urinal......

The results can be imagined.

1s3{$K6O0B*L.w; ^& f

Since you don't follow the reader's heart, then the reader will naturally not follow your heart, so as to give you support such as collecting flowers and subscribing.

Having said all this, in fact, many people should have noticed. Commercial writing is actually a relatively demanding technical activity, which is related to the author's own various commercial writing abilities. Moreover, the scope involved is also very large, and almost every part can be covered a lot, even if it is not a problem to write a book.

/_$?4o/M)f#q.l$E

My personal opinion is that commercial writing ability and traditional writing ability are not absolutely equal, although most of them have commonalities, but there are key and detailed differences. Such as: the ability to structure the story, imagination, experience, pen power, expression techniques, character portrayal ability, the ability to arrange and control the storyline, the grasp of the rhythm, the control of the climax, the setting of suspense, etc., etc., etc., etc., there are too many.

#\，L+\6D*D:w:H，v

If you subdivide it further, there are still how to write a good fantasy more focused on the description of the fight, how to carry out the ambiguous description of urban romance, and how to carry out commercialization-related methods of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and how to be considered a master of abuse, the division of the degree of abuse, the clever use of the master of abuse in commercial writing, etc......

.t)]5B:c$Y%e9K1y

Almost every detail can be discussed at length, and at the same time, it is also worthy of many commercial writers to think about and study, as well as practice. In addition, there is also the aspect of writing mindset and good work and rest time, which are also closely related to the ability to write commercially.

Therefore, it is simple to write an online article, and the threshold is very low. However, the commercial writing of online articles is definitely a highly demanding technical job, unless it is a writer, it generally takes a relatively long time to sharpen before it can be achieved.

!k}U*l)C5v

For example, I would like to say it personally. Before we were 17K, I had been writing online game channels. From the king of online games, to the magic warriors of online games, these two online game texts should record my growth from not knowing commercial writing to understanding it. and now "The School Flower's Personal Bodyguard", the results have soared all of a sudden.

So my personal conclusion is that the average writer will go through a period of grinding before he can make a difference. Even if there are some writers who are very comfortable with simplified Chinese publishing, they are just as miserable when they turn to online articles. In short, these abilities related to the commercial writing of online texts can not be achieved overnight, and can only be improved by continuous writing, continuous reading, continuous thinking and learning, continuous improvement and accumulation......

If you are hardworking and talented, then you will naturally rise faster than others. And if you want to rest more after three days and two ends, write books without brains, and don't need to study and think, then naturally, it will be difficult to make rapid progress in commercial writing ability.

In addition, as for how to improve and strengthen the ability of commercial writing, in fact, due to the relationship of time and length, I can only provide a general model for your reference, so I cannot go into detail one by one. However, I'll go into more detail about one of the aspects of suspense setting later. The title can be announced again, which is called "Detailed Examples: How to Build a Wonderful Suspense, Enhance the Appeal of the Story, and Make Readers Want to Stop".

Okay, so after starting with the second aspect of commercial writing, and also inserting a teaser, let's go back to the first aspect of commercial writing: what exactly do readers want to see?

In fact, there is a good saying, turnip greens, everyone has their own love......

In the commercial writing of online articles, it is said that whatever you write is liked by readers, and what you write is read by others. It's just that the difference is whether there are more or fewer readers who like it, and whether they are loyal or disloyal. Often, many writers refer to this large group of readers with similar appetites as mainstream readers. And those readers with unique tastes but a relatively small number are called niche readers.

When we write novels, there are actually few great powers that can kill men, women, and children one by one. Therefore, capturing the preferences of mainstream readers is almost equivalent to grasping the fundamentals of commercial writing.

To give a very simple example, fantasy upgrade articles and sports competition articles, in general, the audience of fantasy upgrade articles is larger. The sports competition is relatively niche. This is the general situation. Perhaps, someone can write a competitive essay beyond the fantasy upgrade text, but this is only a very small exception, and we can't use it as a general reference. o(∩_∩)o

Of course, because of the huge mainstream readership, there are many writers and works that write mainstream articles. As a result, mainstream readers have a relatively larger choice, and the subscription ratio of general works is relatively low. Although the niche readership group is small, and there are relatively few writers and works, the choice of niche readers is not too large, and they will eat almost the same dishes. (And want to have) relatively loyal readers, relying on quality to win.

)D3j)w5M，g#u8I& Y%{

In contrast, I believe that the average writer will choose the mainstream market, right? Niche markets, on the other hand, are generally ignored and thought that there is not much room for play. Not really. Personally, I think that there is no subject in the world that is not popular, the key lies in the person who writes and the difficulty of the subject becoming popular. Therefore, if you have a writer friend who is more proficient in niche literature, don't force yourself to go to the mainstream market. Anyway, all roads lead to Rome, find out your writing strengths, and then choose the market will be easier to succeed.

6q'E$B+c，P

Ahem, I talked so much unconsciously, it seems to have shifted the topic a bit. Again, I'm going to move on to the first relevant aspect of commercial writing, what the reader wants to see.

Actually, to put it bluntly, it's just a keyword. And this keyword, many people have heard of it. That is... Refreshing! And if you look at it from the perspective of use, it can be called relaxation, leisure, entertainment, funny, passing time, and so on. The more conforming to these keywords, the easier it is to gain recognition from mainstream readers. Of course, the abuse of female frequency is not included in the study, and only male frequency is referred to here.

1r2R%E8j4Y; q(f.r3V(G& X

Speaking of which, many people may ask, what is the cool method? In fact, this is going to involve our real life, to put it bluntly, it is a reasonable and strong sense of real obscenity. Extended to life, this has become something that most people want, but can't get, and wants to do, but it is difficult to do successful things......

These things that you want but can't get can be material or spiritual. For example, material money, spiritual fame, and praise from others......

Take, for example, the student community. Everyone has been a student, and we all know that every day is a heavy workload, and we have to face various school rules and regulations and parental control. Many people have a headache when it comes to reading. And there are not too many odd flowers, almost every boy has fantasized about being able to fight, and has fantasized that the beautiful school flower is his girlfriend; I fantasized that the exam could be the first in the whole school or even the country; I fantasized about being admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University...... I've fantasized a lot...... A lot...... But what, for the average boy, how many are very capable of fighting? How many can take the first place in the exam? How many public lovers can soak in the eyes of the boys in the school?

，Q，]! M1P; ]3c! B+h

So, when they read novels, they just want to read something that satisfies their inner needs and desires. Give them laughter and let them relax. I want to see some scenes that can make them feel in the limelight, and scenes that can make them feel full of spring breeze. I want to see a protagonist who can buy whatever he wants, play whatever he wants, and succeed in whatever he wants, instead of being bullied here and blackmailed there.

For example, in my article "The Personal Bodyguard of the School Flower", my original audience was the student family. So in the article, I gave the protagonist Apple a notebook and the protagonist IPhone, just for these two things, maybe many friends who have it will disdain. BUT FOR THOSE STUDENTS WHO ARE HUNGRY FOR IT, AN IPHONE IS UNDOUBTEDLY VERY REALISTIC. If I had given the protagonist a plane as a reward in the text, it would have been a bit of a stretch.

Therefore, the reasonable and strong sense of reality is the best obscenity, and it is the obscenity that readers are most likely to recognize and feel the most.

Another example is office workers, most of them have left the school and the care of their parents to go to society, followed by the career pressure of social survival, love and marriage problems, and so on. A lot of people want a high-paying job, right? Many people want to have a beautiful woman as a wife, right? But it's cruel. Many girls hope that their object has a house, a car and a deposit, simply put, they are handsome and rich. However, most of the male compatriots in the world, except for those so-called second generations, are ordinary people, right?

Therefore, out of ten ordinary people, nine and a half ordinary people cannot be tall and handsome and rich. In this way, you can only fantasize when you are bored, and then give yourself a little motivation to move forward. And office workers, since they have fantasies and psychological desires, they are equivalent to having reading needs......

He wants a lot of money, so you arrange a fortune for the protagonist in the novel; He wants beautiful women, and you arrange beautiful women for your protagonist. In a commercial atmosphere, the reader is God, and what they want to see, you have to give the protagonist in the book. If you dare to write in your book that your protagonist is dismembered by the enemy, I believe that your book will probably be a eunuch.

At this point, I believe everyone basically understands what readers want to see, right?

#Q3e1rt“g+Q.N8y1U%W

In fact, whether it is a mainstream reader or a niche reader, what they want to see is basically expressed in life. If you observe carefully, I believe you will find that the commercial writing of online articles is actually weaving real and beautiful dreams, as if you have experienced them yourself, and when you wake up from the dream, you will have more motivation to move towards the scene in the dream......

-K& T7H4L5z+^#m/F.g)w3Q

Even those who say that online novels are vulgar and violent and full of blood, they actually have the desire to dominate. They want to be celebrities, they want to be great people, they want to be famous, they want to spend a lot of money, and they want all kinds of things that they want but can't achieve...... Well, commercial writing comes to that here.

7`8}3L，N:C%z.K6x; N$l，Q

It's just that the reason why the powerful people spit on them may actually be because there are few writers who can meet their high-level psychological needs, so they are dissatisfied and complain. It's like you abuse the Lord and get all kinds of scolding from the reader (just a speculative joke).

8V; e'w6D8F'p

I summarize it in one sentence: "As long as there is fantasy, there is demand, and every writer is the most noble dream weaver." A little more truth, kindness and beauty will improve the grade of your work a lot. ”

1. What to write for

As an author, before writing a book, you should first be clear about what you want to write about and what you want to achieve. This goal is not to have how many clicks, recommendations, favorites, subscriptions you have at the starting point, but also to publish, what awards you have won, what you will be known for, etc., or the goal can also be to make yourself happy and give yourself a kind of vent......

Once you have set your goal, you should go firmly in the direction of the goal, regret it halfway through writing, and reset the goal in another place, which is okay. But if you look left and right while writing, clearly saying that you want to write what you want to write, but still expect to make money, or if it is obviously a commercial novel, but you have to add personal preferences and just want to be happy, basically nothing good will come of you.

Here, it must be noted that this article is aimed at authors who aim to make money at the starting point, if you set other goals, then you can do it, the starting point welcomes such authors, but this article is not suitable for you. And if you have your eyes on money, then, read this article carefully, I believe it will help you.

2. What books can make money

Now that you have set the goal of making money, the first thing you should know is, what kind of books can make money?

Here, first of all, I will give an answer that seems irresponsible: the books that readers love to read can make money. Isn't this nonsense, one might say? It is true that this sentence is nonsense no matter how you look at it, but in fact, as long as you put it another way, the problem is easier to analyze.

Before answering the question, first of all, it must be clear that the readers mentioned here are only Internet readers, starting point users, and more precisely, starting point VIP members. Only books that such people love to read can make money. Of course, I also have to mention that there are many works that are very miserable at the starting point, which does not mean that no one likes to read them, such as Tanmei works, it also has a large market space, but its readership and user ** set at the starting point are relatively small, so the popularity at the starting point is relatively bleak.

Having said all this, what exactly is the starting point readers love to read? In fact, this is nothing more than the following two points: first, a vivid and interesting story, twists and turns and bizarre plots; Second, let the reader have a strong sense of substitution, and then feel refreshing, which is commonly referred to as YY. Among them, the second point is more important and dominates.

A good YY work, first of all, must be a work with a strong sense of substitution, only the reader regards the protagonist as himself, in order to feel suffocated when the protagonist is humiliated, and feel refreshing when the protagonist is prestigious, and the YY spirit in the work can be reflected to the greatest extent, so that readers can get the greatest pleasure in reading.

Although many works seem to have good luck and soaring strength, they just don't have that refreshing feeling when they read it, largely because the sense of substitution of the characters is not strong enough. Traditional martial arts novels are a typical example. In this kind of work, the protagonist is often handsome, with stunts, beautiful women, and can punish bullies angrily, it stands to reason that there are so many YY elements, and it is difficult for the work to be not popular, but the decline of traditional martial arts is a well-known reality, and the reason for this is that a big factor lies in the sense of substitution of the character. The protagonists of traditional martial arts novels are all born in ancient times, and their thoughts and actions are completely out of touch with modern people, and it is difficult for people to imagine themselves as the protagonists of the story.

So how can you enhance the sense of substitution? This requires a certain amount of skill, and for newcomers, the simplest and easiest thing to do is to avoid involving elements that will affect the sense of substitution, and for some details that are not related to the theme, don't ink too much, and try to blur them. I once saw a post on the forum asking how much height the protagonist is more appropriate, and an old author's reply is very classic - "one person is tall". At first glance, this is a nonsense, but in fact, it is deeply in line with the essence of YY. No matter how high the protagonist is written, it will make some readers feel that it does not match them and is difficult to substitute, but the simple and universal "one person high" is a panacea setting, and the protagonist can be well substituted for whether it is high or low.

If you don't understand that, then you can be more explicit. At the starting point, the mainstream readers of the book are men in their teens and twenties, and for newcomers, it is easier to set the protagonist as such an identity, a student in modern society, or a stunned young man who is just starting out looking for a job, pay attention, the gender must be a young man! If you have a woman, a middle-aged uncle, or all kinds of strange things, such as kittens, dogs, saplings, and rocks, you will be able to serve on the street nine out of ten.

If you have to take the unpopular route and write about these unpopular protagonists, then the only way to rescue them is to transform. If you write about the heroine, give her the opportunity to transform into a man, and if you write a non-human protagonist, let it have a human form, or at least be able to temporarily disguise itself as a human. But in any case, directly setting the protagonist as a male human is the king. If you deviate from the track at the beginning and don't want to abandon the pit and rewrite, the easiest way is to change the protagonist. If you're writing about a woman, focus the story on her boyfriend and tell the story from his boyfriend's point of view, and if you're writing about a cat or a dog, find an owner for her and focus on it.

In addition, there is a small trick to enhance the sense of substitution, which is to design a harmless bad hobby, or an inconsequential minor flaw, for the protagonist of Gao Daquan and exaggerate it. For example, setting the protagonist is a road idiot who often gets lost, which is not only conducive to leading to a new story, but also allows the high-flying protagonist to walk off the altar, while maintaining the light, it also seems more approachable.

After solving the problem of substitution, it depends on whether the development of the protagonist and the direction of the story can make the reader feel happy, which is also the most critical part of the success or failure of the novel, because at this time, the reader has already regarded the protagonist as himself, and the protagonist's every move involves the reader's heart. There are already many unsatisfactory things in the lives of readers, and they come to read books for temporary leisure and temporary spiritual pleasure, so why should they sacrifice their precious spare time and hard-won money to find sin?

Here, I have to remind that the psychological tolerance of readers nowadays has become extremely poor, they are quite vulnerable, and if the protagonist suffers too much frustration, then the reader will inevitably rebound; If there is a plot in the book where the heroine's virginity is taken away by others, the reader will inevitably run away, and the remaining half will keep screaming and scolding. For a commercial novel, it's come to an end.

Talking about a few factors that should not be wanted, then, what is the reader who should want to read it? It's very simple, think about what wishes you have, think about the wishes of your classmates, colleagues, and friends around you, and make these wishes come true is what the protagonist should do. If you sum it up, it is nothing more than adventures, upgrades, treasure hunting, pickling girls, making a fortune, bullying people, and helping others.

Adventure is to arrange special luck for the protagonist and let him get special benefits. This can be material, such as the secret recipe of falling off a cliff and not dying in traditional martial arts, or it can be immaterial, such as meeting an old man with outstanding skills after falling off a cliff......

Upgrading is to make the protagonist continue to get stronger, even if the protagonist's strength does not need to change in the works, you can also add a description of the protagonist's practice from time to time, and then mention that the protagonist feels that his skills are a little more refined, or that his skills have become more proficient. This kind of description is not necessary, and it can be deleted from the text, but adding such a paragraph can increase the attractiveness of the work by a little bit.

Treasure hunting is somewhat similar to the adventures mentioned above, but focuses more on material acquisition and more conscious behavior. Don't be afraid that the protagonist has a lot of money, and don't think that the protagonist has a lot of treasures, the more this kind of thing, the better, and the protagonist can show off in the future, and you can also give away some secondary treasures, and be thanked by others, which are all good YY points. However, there is one thing to be aware of, although the more treasures, the better, but try not to let the protagonist get too much at once. Because no matter how many treasures the protagonist gets at one time, it only constitutes a YY point, if you write too much in one breath, it will be a waste of future YY points, and secondly, it will also create an impression to the reader that the baby is worthless and not rare.

On the point of picking up girls, many authors have a misunderstanding, thinking that only by writing a stallion book can there be a future, and the protagonist must see one by one, and bubble one by one. In fact, the stallion writing is inferior, and while the public version performs well, the subscription is generally not very high, and readers seem to be more inclined to read free chapters than pay for them. Harem works are very different. The protagonist in the stallion book is to see one on the other, and the protagonist in the harem text sees one and receives one, always maintaining an ambiguous relationship, and will not be on all of them. Just as the cost of cleaning in a brothel is higher, the beauties in the novel, before the protagonist actually gets them, are the most valuable and the most anticipated by the reader. They will guess when the protagonist will be able to get the beauty and when to sleep with her, and this guess will usually translate into subscriptions. Note that keeping the protagonist and the beauty in an ambiguous relationship is not necessarily for the protagonist to see one and love the other, and to chase the other when he sees the other, it can be that some beauties chase the protagonist backwards, or the beauty and the protagonist don't look at each other correctly, but fate has always arranged all kinds of embarrassing coincidences. This kind of diversity will have a better effect.

Fortune is similar to the treasure hunt above, but it pays more attention to the acquisition of money, and it appears more in urban works. Because there is some repetition with the previous article, I won't say much about it here.

Deception is when the protagonist knocks down the enemy and then steps on it. The enemy here can be the most ordinary roadside gangster, whose strength is less than 1/100 million of the protagonist, or it can be the cosmic creation god, whose strength exceeds that of the protagonist by 100 million times. If you want to depict a deceptive scene, you must pay attention to one point, that is, you must portray the enemy well. This is an important point, and one that many newcomers tend to overlook. Only when the enemy is portrayed well and the protagonist defeats him will the reader feel refreshed. Otherwise, no matter how the protagonist tosses, the reader will think that he is nervous. To portray the enemy well, there are two directions: one is to portray the other party as ugly, so that the reader hates him, and when the protagonist ravages him, the reader will feel refreshed; The second is to describe the other party as extremely powerful, so that the reader feels that he is an unsurpassable existence, and when the protagonist defeats that person, the reader is even more enjoyable.

Helping others, this seems funny, and it seems to run counter to the gist of YY, but it's not. Helping others means getting praise and gratitude from others, imagine the protagonist throwing out some unwanted garbage, other people's eldest brother, Engong, and boss shouting non-stop, and even kneeling on the ground with tears streaming down his face and saying that he wants to go back to set up the immortal tablet scene, this kind of YY brings excitement, not necessarily weaker than the protagonist defeating the enemy. If you want your work to be more popular, you should also make use of it.

3. What subject to choose to write about

The above is the overall characteristics of a good book, so what kind of subject matter can make more money by writing? What kind of topics will be easier to write about? This section will analyze this issue in detail.

In fact, no matter what kind of subject matter, as long as the strategy is right, it can be a big hit, but the degree of difficulty is absolutely different. Some themes are written casually without being too miserable, while others require master-level skill to show their attractiveness. So what exactly is it that is more appealing to write about? The editor believes that in the subject matter that is easy to write and easy to heat, it is a wise choice to reasonably examine the author's own level and characteristics, and choose the most suitable subject for his own play. As for which subjects are easy to write and hot, this will be discussed below.

Some authors believe that it is necessary to write novel themes and show enough novelty in order to attract people and become popular. Basically, this is a misconception. Novelty means that readers rarely see it, which means that the work lacks a sufficient mass base, and it takes a process to be accepted by readers, and then to be familiar and liked by readers. This kind of work has inherent disadvantages, although it is likely to have relatively large development and achievements, but it is not very suitable for newcomers, and it is not easy to write a truly innovative work.

At present, the number of works in the starting point library has exceeded 70,000. What kind of concept is 70,000? If we read an average of 10 books a day, 70,000 works can take us to read for 20 years; If the average print of a work is two centimeters thick, then 70,000 books will be stacked 1,400 meters high; If every book is written about alternate history, then there can be fourteen books in each year for 5,000 years...... What does this data say? Obviously, almost every subject, character, plot we can think of has been written. When there were only a few hundred books in the starting library, almost every work was refreshing to us, and quite a few works could make people amaze and admire the author's whimsy. Today, there are nearly 70,000 works in the library, and for long-time readers, no matter what the author writes, they can find similar stories in almost every corner of their memory. In this way, there is a big problem for new authors and old authors who are planning to open a new hole - what else can they write now?

In fact, if you open a new book, it is nothing more than the following four situations: first, old wine in old bottles, with old-fashioned themes and old-fashioned stories; the second is the new wine in old bottles, the old-fashioned themes and backgrounds, and the development of different stories; the third is the old wine in a new bottle, which seems to be a novel theme, but in fact it is still an old-fashioned story, just dressed in a new coat; Finally, there is a new wine in a new bottle, completely innovative.

Old bottles of old wine look the most boring, but if the author is profound, this kind of book is the easiest to become a super popular masterpiece. Although the words cliché, cliché, and vulgar are all derogatory, in fact, vulgar represents popularization. The reason why many things are overwritten is precisely because there is a market demand and a considerable number of readers like it. The works of old bottles and old wine are often polarized, and the works of the followers of the same theme have surpassed their predecessors in an all-round way, so many years later, it will be more mentioned that they will follow the trend, but if the author's ability is limited and he simply imitates his predecessors, then although he is also taking the commercial route, he may not achieve satisfactory results in the end.

The old bottle of new wine requires a little creativity, a little flexibility. For example, in the same time-traveling text, "Xun Qin Ji" writes that modern people return to the Warring States Period, then we can write that modern people return to the Tang Dynasty, and we can also write that Qin people travel back to modern times. If these have been written, then you can continue to play, write about the Tang Dynasty people traveling to the Song Dynasty, you can change the whole body crossing to the soul possession, you can also emphasize the professional characteristics, change the military protagonist to a chef, doctor, carpenter, or change the goal of the protagonist, change the battle for dominance to the rich party, enjoy life...... Of course, this does not mean that it is good to have new ideas and changes, and after a certain degree of modification of the creativity of the predecessors, it is necessary to think about whether there is room for such a situation to play and whether it can be written interestingly. For example, if you write about an urban ability, you can make up an infinite number of outlines, randomly set a special ability for the protagonist, develop on that basis, imagine why the protagonist got the ability, what he did with the ability after getting it, and then you can continue to think about whether the ability has room for development, whether it will upset the balance, and whether it has enough characteristics...... If these meet the requirements, then the subject can be written by hand. This type of book is generally difficult to reach very high heights, but the street can be much smaller than other types of books.

New bottles of old wine, this is a more clever trick. In fact, this is a bit similar to the previous one, which requires a little innovation, but it does not require too much creativity, and it can still move forward along the path of predecessors. The difference is that the previous one is changed to the core, while this one is changed to the outer coat. For example, there have been a lot of online games in recent times, which are still martial arts in essence, but when they put on the coat of online games, their popularity is immediately different. In addition to packaging unpopular themes into popular genres, there are also some authors who dress up popular themes as unpopular genres, which has the advantage of making readers more fresh and making the work a higher level on the original basis, which is also the reason why several super popular masterpieces occasionally pop up in very out-of-the-way categories.

New bottles, new wines, this kind of work often requires deeper writing skills, rather than having a whimsical idea. This kind of work is inseparable from creativity, and if there is no enough new idea, everything is empty talk, but creativity alone is not enough. In fact, it is precisely because of the novelty of this kind of work that it brings additional difficulties to writing. It describes a completely new world, adopts a new model, and the reader is familiar with those old-fashioned settings, so it is not easy to let readers enter the world of the work as soon as possible and accept the author's setting as soon as possible. If the author does it, then the work is likely to lead a trend and become a classic that will be talked about in the future, but if the author's skills are not enough, then this kind of work that is too bizarre is the easiest to get on the street.

To sum up, the editor believes that for a newcomer, to decide what subject to write, he must first examine himself, see his own abilities, and give himself a correct positioning. If you're creative and have a strong writing skills, try the fourth mode and write a whole new story. If the author has a certain amount of writing skills, but lacks creativity, then he might as well summarize the current popular works, follow the trend honestly, and completely take the commercial route; And if the author is not confident in his writing ability, then it is best to adopt the second or third type of mode, use some tricks, do not follow the crowd, avoid traditional old-fashioned routes such as dynastic hegemony, and do not be too innovative, avoid an environment that is too new and unfamiliar to readers, and try to develop some distinctive stories in a more receptive background, so that it is easier for newcomers to get ahead.

The following is an analysis of each of the common types of works.

preface

In many novels, there is a saying that "there is no strongest martial arts, only the most suitable martial arts", and in the selection of novel genres, there is also no distinction between good types and bad types. No matter what type of novel it is, success depends only on two things, one is the author's own ability, and the other is whether the genre is suitable for the author, as for the genre itself, it is not the key.

In the above, some techniques for selecting topics have been described, and here, the major genres of current online novels will be analyzed separately, so that the author can better recognize the characteristics of various different types.

There is no best type, only the one that suits you best!

1. Fantasy class

This is the category with the largest number of online novels, and it is also the most hodgepodge category, and most of the works can be named "fantasy". There are historical reasons for this phenomenon.

Initially, there was almost no category of online novels, but all novels were fantasy novels, and the word fantasy was equivalent to novels, and gradually, when the number of online novels gradually increased, after the successive appearance of characteristic works and follow-up works, other classifications appeared, and some works with obvious characteristics were divided separately from the fantasy category, so far, there are thirteen categories such as fantasy, fantasy, martial arts, fairy tales, urban, romance, history, military, games, competitions, science fiction, supernatural, and homo, which can be expected, With the development of online novels, the variety of works will further increase.

But even so, the fantasy genre is still the largest category, it has an extremely large readership, which means that the work is excellent, if it can become popular, it is likely to be very popular, and the popularity is super high, but at the same time, the massive number of such works also means that there is a scarcity of virgin land for development, and fantasy works are easy to fall into clichés, obviously the author's painstaking inspiration, but it still collides with predecessors, and is infamous as a "cliché" by readers, thus drowning in the sea of books.
