Wang Fanzhi, a poet and monk in the Tang Dynasty, advocated the "reverse socks method" and put forward the difference between "straight socks" and "reverse socks" in literary creation.

What is the reverse sock method? We know that generally speaking, socks have two sides, the smooth and beautiful side is generally facing outward, and the side with various threads is generally facing inward, so that wearing socks is pleasing to the eyes of the person who wears it, and the person who wears it is uncomfortable (relative), which is the sock. The reverse socks are to wear the socks in reverse, the smooth side is facing inward, and the threaded end side is facing outward, which is naturally more comfortable for the person who wears socks, but in the eyes of others, it is inevitably unsightly.

There are also such subtle differences in literary creation. Poetry to the Tang Dynasty, the rhythm is gradually prepared, but Wang Fanzhi does not abide by the classics, composes poems but seeks reason, not rhyme, the so-called: "I would rather pierce your eyes than hide my feet", that is, I (the author) will not wronged myself in order to make you (reader) happy.

When Ah Bo wrote the last book "The Prisoner of Tong Palace", he basically wanted to make himself happy, so although this book was extremely fluttering, only a few readers with similar interests to Ah Bo were interested in this book, but Ah Bo still wrote it happily. "Tong Palace" has written nearly a million words, and there are only 350 collections at the starting point, and there are only more than 1,000 collections after the first website Phantom Sword has been sealed, and since then Ah Bo knows that his taste is definitely not the taste of the public.

Because "Tonggong" was too fluttering, Abo was afraid, there were only two choices at that time, one was not to write, and the other was to wear the socks over, because I knew that I couldn't stand the misfortune of Tonggong for the second time, and the reality did not allow it, so I had to choose a hot and relatively high Dongdong to write, because there was still a little strength to pass through the novel fever at that time, so there was "Bianrong". When I picked up the pen, I was ready to put on my socks, and I would rather hide my feet than make the reader comfortable reading.

After all, YY fiction is a kind of writing that has no place in the present. Since I write YY novels, I should know that once I enter this way, I will be isolated from the so-called literary palace, and I will be ashamed of mainstream writers. It is not only literature, but also the market, everything is centered on the economy and market-oriented, in order to please the readers with the most spending power on the Internet. It's a pity that for people who don't have talent, it turns out that socks have to be worn straight and backwards. Halfway through the writing of "Bianrong", Ah Bo's inferior nature has been committed again, some of the knots are that he knows that he should do this but can't do it, and at some critical times, he always likes to make something that everyone doesn't like to make the novel seem awkward, and others ask me why I write it like this, but I can't say it, because those things are just what I like or I think should be, but they may not be highly rated by literary standards and reading standards.

As a result, the ups and downs of popularity have come and gone, and I don't know how many people can read "Bianrong" to the end. Readers who can persevere, Ah Bo is really grateful and sincerely admired, but after all, Ah Bo failed to contribute a relaxed and happy little book to the coffee parents, which is my sin. And what is more serious is that this sin caused "Bian Rong" to not be popular and not to be sold, and it was even more self-defeating.

"Bianjon" is written about history, but I don't think it's history, I know that history is not like this at all. So is "Bianjon" written in my mind about history? No, not in my mind. So does "Bianjon" write the history that I like and hope? Not even more. For example, in fact, I can be regarded as an imperial Han, who has little obedience, is a die-hard fan of Chinese tradition, and likes "Hu Wuren Han Daochang" more than "Gou can control the invasion of the mausoleum and kill more", and puts China's interests above the slogan of world peace, but in the process of writing the book, some readers misunderstood that my position was on the right, and some friends who only read the introduction or the first half even said that I was a traitor and a traitor. For another example, Yue Fei is really the first martial artist in my heart, but not only did I not give him a chance to show his face positively (some were just narrating, or only explained the result), and finally let him die - it's not that I don't like Yue Fei, but because I think the character I created is not qualified to be his lord, which is called "the protagonist is not a minister", but this kind of insistence is probably not understood by few people now.

So what kind of history is "Bianjung" written? Don't ask me, I don't know, if you have to ask, then Ah Bo can only reply to him left and right: It's just a game. The word game is best used to prevaricate, because if you use it, you can't be serious. It's a pity that Ah Bo is actually a fool who is more suitable for being a serious person (but doesn't want to be a serious person), so he pretends to be a serious person, and he can't help but twist and pinch and sneer.

Reading this, there must have been many readers who have become impatient, feeling that the postscript of Ah Bo is like a wedge that greatly damages the sense of substitution of "Bian Rong", oh my God! Substitution, this word makes me sad again - I don't know that YY novels are about substitution, just like martial arts novels in the past made people fantasize that they can be prawns, shrimps, and ants, and writing historical YY novels is of course to make readers fantasize about using a little scientific knowledge we learned from the West to show their prestige in ancient times, and save the world with the superficial and empty democratic system that Ah Bo doesn't trust at all. Unfortunately, it is easier said than done, and I, a boring writer poisoned by feudalism, superstition, Confucianism, and many other backward ideas, actually think that contemporary Chinese, whether in cultivation or culture, can not be compared with our ancestors—well, at least the ancestors of the Song Dynasty written in "Bianjung", how can I make a barbarian grandson run to the ancestors of civilization to show his prestige? So I wanted the Yang Yingqi brothers to be pushed by the times at the beginning, but although there was this original intention, I couldn't stick to the end, and in the middle I still succumbed to the hopes of some readers and twisted to let the Yang Yingqi brothers push the times, and the whole structure was awkward, I wrote painfully, and the readers were not satisfied with this incomplete yy, the author and readers were not happy, it was really unflattering.

I feel that I should repent, and since I know that what I am doing is worthless, then I should believe in scientism in historiography, democracy in politics, and YYISM in the market in order to make a living, so that I can get a bite to eat for myself, who is already poor. But can I do it? I'm skeptical. I've heard that there are people in this world who can write things without dazzling their eyes or hide their feet - I wish I could reach this level one day, even if it was only a dream so far.

In any case, thank you for finishing the dream of "Bianrong" with me, this dream is now over, and Ah Bo has to end this worthless and nutritious postscript quickly. The new book has been signed, the release location is still on this site, and the release time may be in early June, during which I have to take half a month off and save the manuscript for half a month...... I heard that cutting off files is a taboo for second- and third-rate writers, and I don't know how many people will remember "Bianrong" in a month, and how many people will be interested in my new book.

Finally, post a mailbox of Abo, if there is a repost of Gaoxian, I hope to keep it: [email protected] want to shoot Abo's bricks come quickly, I can also save some to go back to the countryside to build a house, now the house price is expensive, I can't afford it in Guangzhou. If you are too lazy to shoot bricks, please also ask Lao Zhi to send an email, just write the words "Bianrong Reader" on the letter, no content, when Ah Bo sends a new book, it is good to notify everyone to come to the scene.

Thank you.
