Before you know it, a year has passed.

I remember that I decided to write a book, probably this time last year, and now, before I knew it, it was over a million words!

One million words, if it is an elementary school essay, it is 2500 essays, and a high school essay, it is also 1250 essays.

Perhaps, this is nothing for a professional writer. But I am very grateful, because in this long process, there has always been such a group of lovely, respectable, amiable people have been silently supporting me. To be honest, without their group of lovely, respectable, and amiable people, I wouldn't be able to hold on to where I am now.

Glad to have you! Because of your presence, I am very happy to say that next year, I will continue to write and continue to tell the story of the Red Chamber that I think is beautiful.

In the meantime, someone will leave. It's normal, because I know I'm not doing well enough. However, as long as I think of this book at a certain moment in the future, I can have the leisure to turn it out and read it, which is the greatest affirmation for me. Of course, the person who is willing to ignore my shortcomings and keep writing with me will be my dearest and dearest person!

Okay, that's all for the sensationalism, and now I'm going to make two points.

First, some book friends said that they don't like to watch sadistic plots. To be honest, I don't like it either!

And I admit that this book will not be used as a gimmick to whet everyone's appetite. Dream of Red Mansions has already told this kind of "abuse" story to the fullest, so that it is heartbreaking, why should I bother to get an axe at the door of work here?

I don't have the level to write a Shakespearean tragedy. So, don't pursue too high, write something out, so that everyone can have fun in their leisure time, which is also my original intention.

The second point is my opinion and insight into writing books.

Writing really taught me a lot, because whenever I write about unfamiliar areas, I look up relevant information on the Internet, even if it's just scratching the surface, but I can guarantee that I'm not talking nonsense from beginning to end.

Because when I used to read books, I always felt that not to mention whether the writing is good or not, as long as I can learn some interesting knowledge from the book that I don't know, and can increase my knowledge, then this book is not completely in vain!

Therefore, I will try to write between the lines some of the things I have learned, so that friends who have read my books can unconsciously learn some things that they did not know before or were unfamiliar with in their leisure time. Even if it's just a little bit. That's one of my goals.

A lot of gossip, and finally I wish you all a family reunion and a happy New Year! In the new year, there can be new harvests.

Sincerely.
