Closing remarks

Typing the last word, my heart is full of infinite emotion.

From August 2017, when I knocked out the first word, it has been more than a year.

In 2017, I was still a college student who had just entered the internship position, and I often felt that I should not stay here, I should go to Shenzhen, and I could learn a lot by doing a real estate sales, but there was another flame stirring in my heart.

This flame has emotional factors and dreams that have always been desired.

Since my sophomore year, I haven't stopped writing, and whenever I have leisure and boredom, I take pleasure in typing on the keyboard.

In March 2017, I finally made up my mind to go home and start creating.

At that time, this was a very crazy decision, and people who knew a little bit about the online literature industry understood that the pyramid structure in this industry was very tight, and more than half of the authors who devoted themselves to the creation of online literature were on a whim, and less than 98% of them could sign contracts and put them on the shelves, and even fewer could support their families by this profession.

On the other hand, as a young man who has just stepped out of school, staying at home just after graduation seems to outsiders to be a bit of an escapist after all, and relatives and friends, no matter what kind of idea they have, feel that they are not doing their job.

I went my own way, but I had to take into account the thoughts of my parents, who didn't know much about this emerging industry, but out of love for me, they didn't oppose it, and they have been silently supporting.

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, I feel that I have no way out, I think my writing and stories are okay, I want to break through.

As a result, he rushed to the street before he succeeded.

The first book "Immortal Qi Refiner" is a Xianxia type, and the writing is acceptable, but it is placed in a bunch of Xianxia texts, there is nothing new, and it is not difficult for me to sign a contract, but after it is put on the shelves and charged, the results are miserable.

When there is no continuation, it will be disturbed.

So, in August, I decisively abandoned it and ended it in a hurry.

I started to think about where I should go from here.

At that time, for some reason, the plan to go to Shenzhen had been abandoned, and I was holding my breath in my heart, I couldn't just forget it, and after half a year, I had to do something.

At that time, I had just graduated from university, and perhaps my mind was clear and enlightened all of a sudden.

In the past, I wrote with an obsession, and I wrote about the Xianxia genre because I had read a lot in the past, and I felt that this kind of book was very marketable, the income was good, and the mentality of running for money was relatively large.

The failure was not bad luck, but it really didn't write the "immortal" flavor in Xianxia.

When writing a story, choose what you are good at.

What am I good at?

History.

From the first time I came into contact with history books, I was deeply fascinated, every time a new textbook was sent, the first book I read was always history, and then I learned to find history books to read by myself, study the deep-seated reasons behind history, and even find some university research history and Western history, and read it with relish.

History is a magnificent history of human interpretation.

Chinese history is full of twists and turns, amazing and pathetic, addictive and thought-provoking pictures, the contest between social contradictions, the change of dynasties, the fog of power and intrigues, and the politics of imperial power......

History has left behind many mistakes, and every major event that affects the progress of history cannot be explained clearly by a single reason.

The trend of the times is mighty, some people can be famous in history by discerning the general trend, and some people are relatively slow to react, so they can only be ruthlessly run over by the rolling wheels of history.

That's the beauty of it.

I like history, I know it, and I can write about it.

In the past, I had never tried to put history into words, because it was a niche category, and even if the book was to be outstanding, the subscription revenue would not be too high.

However, after experiencing the failure of the first book, I have instead learned some lessons from it - writing unfamiliar things, stumbling and bumping; Write what you're good at, and it's fluid.

Thousands of troops and horses have passed alone, it is better to sing the wind at the head of the tide, the phoenix tail is beautiful and does not need to climb, and the fairy birds in the world are lively.

Thanks to the failure of the first book, let me understand the true meaning of creation, abandon the heart of profit-seeking, but have the possibility of profit-seeking, this is the soul of a book, in which I can not see impetuousness, write quietly, occasionally look at the results, every day a little progress is a little progress, I will be satisfied.

But what to write?

How do you infuse what you have learned into your work?

The official history must not be written, the rise and fall of 5,000 years of literary history, the disaster of Bingji, an era must not be written, then there is only one way to overhead.

Overhead is to reconstruct literature and history on the basis of reality and design a new world.

It's a foothold.

I aimed at the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

This era is very interesting, the contention of a hundred schools of thought has just begun, and Chinese literature and history are still in the stage of simplicity......

It has a role in the history of China, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty died out one by one, the rise and fall of the Qin State has a strong historical research, it can accommodate the Shang Dynasty Reform Law such a grand event, but also spread out a magnificent pattern of hegemony, the most important thing is that the cultural plasticity is very strong.

Personally, I am a great admirer of the theory that cultural roots determine the fate of rise and fall, so I happily settled on the overhead model.

Next, I designed a protagonist with a library in mind, who travels to a small country, using classical strategies to secure life and the country, while copying ancient and modern cultures and technologies, and growing from a weak and small country to a unified empire.

I believe that many people, after reading this book, can find a lot of models of historical events, unlike other books, this book will often implant some deep reflections on history, comparisons, and assumptions, perhaps because of this, this book can accumulate a large number of die-hard fans in the case of lack of creative experience.

It's easy to understand history, but it's hard to write it down.

On the one hand, the pen is not strong, the creative experience is lacking, and it is difficult to put it away after the pen layout.

On the other hand, there is the pressure from the outside world.

It's very difficult to walk alone, it's very difficult, for a long time I was black and white upside down, I often had insomnia at night, especially when I was writing more than 80 chapters, I encountered the first bottleneck, I couldn't get through it for a few days, I couldn't find the direction of the future outline, and I even thought about giving up at one point.

Slow typing, boring state day after day, people almost want to go crazy, sometimes they don't go out for days, life is extremely autistic, young age, I really don't want to be like this, I have to plan for the future.

Even one day, in the middle of the night, I was woken up by a phone call in my dream, and a reader accused him of why he didn't update it for a few days (I don't know why the mobile phone number was leaked), I was at a loss, and after asking, I learned that the reader was on a pirated website, and the website server did not capture the data in those days, so that he had no piracy to see.

Piracy is a word that is deeply hated by the writers.

Some people say that if there is no piracy, many online writers may have been villas by the sea now, although I do not agree with this, but I also think that piracy is rampant, and sometimes it is really helpless.

Personally, I don't really hate piracy, the national situation is like this, it shouts every day to protect intellectual copyright, but it's just a slogan, shouting to foreigners, the era of piracy is flying all over the sky, search for your own books on Baidu, the first few are pirated websites, and the real piracy is hidden in the corner and shivering.

Originally, you saw that yours was pirated, and I wrote my genuine version, and everyone was safe and sound, and there was no conflict with each other, and there was nothing to do with each other.

But some people, just don't enjoy reading pirated copies, they have to go to the genuine website to scold me, in the name of pointing to satisfy their erudite vanity, pointing fingers with the posture of God, feeling that reading my book is to give me face, I must accept criticism, otherwise it is detached from the masses, arrogant, no character, if the comments are deleted, it will cause a narrow-minded name.

Well, that's good.

If you listen to it a lot, you will be normal.

Regardless of what he has in the world, he laughs two or three times in his spare time.

On the contrary, I am a little concerned about them - the moral high ground is not low, and you stand so high, don't you feel cold?

Well, it's off topic, it's a bit of a complaint, but compared to the insults I received this year, it's still restrained.

In the readership, everyone is very warm-hearted, and even when I update several chapters a month, I can still receive a lot of encouragement and support, which makes me both touched and ashamed.

This book was written to the end, due to personal reasons, has been intermittent, today can finally finish the book, thank you for being able to read the reader, the next second book has an idea, I believe that with the creation experience of this book, the outline and story can have a better grasp, support friends can join the group, or pay attention to the public number "sand eyes", after opening a new book, it will be pushed in time to remind.

The mountain is high and the road is long, and there will be a period later! ()
