It was raining outside, with snow in the rain. Occasionally, young lovers snuggle up together, hold up an umbrella, and pass by the window.

Chang Zheng sat by the window of the café, looking at the scenery outside the window, taking a sip of espresso, and brewing creative thoughts.

Putting down the coffee cup, he began to type:

……

After the character is written, it is time to start writing the outline of the story. The outline of the story is a sample of the whole book, which is equivalent to the author writing it in advance.

Chang Zheng has the habit of writing an outline, sharpening knives and not chopping wood. With an outline, you know how to write the next 100,000 words, and then how to write the next 100,000 words. Where the burden is shaken, where the stalk comes out, where the pit is dug and filled. The author knows what to expect.

There is a lot of pressure to update online articles, and there is no outline, but you have to keep it updated every day, and you have to write it if you can't write it, so you can only make up the number of words to rush to work. There was so much water that the stream gathered into the ocean and drowned himself. The patience of Internet readers is generally relatively strong, but there is always a limit, if you don't row a boat for a long time and don't go ashore, I will abandon the book if you are in a hurry.

When Chang Zheng first debuted as a writer, he suffered the loss of not writing an outline. After several eunuch books in succession, he finally coded a 30,000-word outline. It was these 30,000 words that gave him his first completed work, "Crazy and Proud". This book is an urban ability, and he wrote it in imitation of "Evil Awe".

If he wants to imitate "Evil Awe", he naturally has to study this book thoroughly. After studying it several times, I memorized the main characters and plot of the book. I haven't forgotten it yet.

The characters and plot can be restored to the maximum, but now Chang Zheng is still facing a problem. That's the subject of narrative perspective.

The original work of "Evil Awe" is a first-person narrative, and Wuda plays Chen Yang by himself, "I" is Chen Yang, and I speak for myself.

Chang Zheng is not very good at writing in the first person, he has never written in the first person. So he decided to take the usual third-person perspective to write "Evil Awe".

Chang Zheng refilled his cup of coffee and entered the story outline writing session.

The main plot of "Evil Awe" is often remembered. When Chen Yang first appeared, he was the manager of a night/club. Chen Yang's boss is called Ye Huan, Ye Huan has a background in the Green Gang, he values Chen Yang very much, and has always regarded Chen Yang as a key training object to cultivate. Chen Yang is also very grateful to Ye Huan and regards Ye Huan as a father and brother.

Later, in order to save Ye Huan's daughter, Chen Yang beat the only son of the boss of the Green Gang into a eunuch. Then he was chased and killed, and had to run away. Chen Yang didn't expect that the killer who chased and killed him was Ye Huan's henchman and his red stick.

Chen Yang's heart was like a knife, and with the help of a fat man, he smuggled to Vancouver. In Vancouver, Chen Yang fought his own way and ruled the underground forces on the west coast of Canada, and was respectfully known as the "Five Masters". Later, Chen Yang moved to the United States, became an ally with the Rothschilds, and also had his own territory in the United States.

With both power and wealth, Chen Yang went to Africa to recruit a powerful little brother, a top mercenary in the world. With the team and money and food, Chen Yang returned to China and settled accounts after the autumn. Ye Huan sighed and committed suicide by taking poison. The grievances are over, and after that, Chen Yang washed his hands and took his wife and celebrities to live a happy life on a nameless island.

It can be said that the book "Evil Awe-inspiring" brings the essence of urban YY novels to the extreme. Power, money, power, and beauty, the protagonist got it, and then retreated, leaving his own legend on the rivers and lakes. It's something that almost all men dream of.

The plot of this book is full of ups and downs, the development of the main line and branch lines is reasonable and clear, and the character creation is very personal. Based on the actual logic of urban background novels, the creation of dance is rigorous and serious, and many plots are unexpected but reasonable, making readers believe that these things seem to happen in our lives, and the sense of substitution is very good, although this is a first-person narrative novel.

Now Chang Zheng wants to adapt "Evil Awe" into a third-person narrative, which will be more advantageous in terms of substitution. It's just that if you have to make some changes and adjustments in the text, the protagonist's mental activity will definitely be greatly reduced, and the protagonist's personality needs to be reflected more by dialogue. The point is that he doesn't know how to write and doesn't dare to try to write in the first person easily, especially in a critical time like this, where playing with fire can burn himself. First-person narration is a high-end product, not that the gods dare not touch it, otherwise it is easy to pounce.

From the morning code to more than five o'clock in the afternoon, Chang Zheng coded the outline of 10,000 words, and the code arrived at the plot where Chen Yang called the girls from the night/club to participate in the model show. He wanted to laugh when he got here, and the girls bowed neatly and uniformly, and shouted "Thank you boss" to the ordinary audience, which made people squirt. This kind of meme should be recorded so that it is not omitted when writing the main text.

Getting more and more energetic, Chang Zheng ordered a muffin to fill his stomach and decided to continue fighting in this café, which closed at twelve o'clock in the evening anyway.

This belongs to the CBD area of Songzhou City, and many small white-collar workers like to come to the café to sit. White-collar workers mostly carry electronic products such as notebooks and tablets, and many of them are also typing, maybe writing copy, maybe chatting, maybe watering, and of course, writing books.

Chang Zheng likes this kind of atmosphere, one person is not as good as everyone together, and it is better to be happy alone than to be happy. Long-term junglers are always lonely.

The phone rang suddenly, Hu Weihua.

Chang Zheng: "Hello Uncle Hu. ”

Hu Weihua: "Where are you, Xiaochang?" If you have time in the evening, I will invite you to dinner. ”

Chang Zheng: "I'm in Songzhou. Did Uncle Hu come to Songzhou? ”

Hu Weihua: "Oh? No wonder. I'm in Southport. Okay, I'll make up this meal when you get back. You kid is very good at being a person, and the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. From now on, we will be partners. Our editor-in-chief went to Songzhou today, and he will have an in-depth exchange with you in the next two days about the physical publication of "Infinite Terror", and I will tell him your number later, and he will contact you. It is mainly the business content of revision, delivery, etc. ”

It seems that the physical publication of "Infinite Terror" was made for Hu Weihua's Nangang Literature and Art Publishing House. Chang Zheng smiled: "I'm going to invite Uncle Hu to dinner." You are my customer and have purchased my products so that I can eat and drink fresh milk bread. Thank you, thank you. ”

Hu Weihua scolded with a smile: "Don't be poor. It's not that I personally pay for your copyright, but that I support excellent original cultural products on behalf of the country. Besides, we are a small publishing house, and we are not strong, so we can't pay you much money. At present, it is tentatively divided, and you will be given a 12% share of terminal sales. As for how to distribute the 12% between you and Fenghua.com, you can discuss it yourself. Fenghua should contact you immediately and ask you to sign. Okay, I still have a meeting, you and our editor-in-chief Li have more exchanges and submit the manuscript early. When you go back to Nangang, remember to call me, like this first. ”

Chang Zheng drank coffee and ate muffins. Well, the physical copyright of "Infinite Terror" has been sold, and there is another way to make money. The 12% share is neither high nor low, and it is considered the middle class. By the way, I got on Hu Weihua's line, and it's hard to say if this line won't work in the future. But just like writing a book, you have to lay a few foreshadowings, and one day it will play an unexpected role.
