Chapter 69: Writers' Seminar

The annual conference will last for several days, and one of the key items on the agenda will be the exchange of writing skills and experiences, with lectures by professional executives and invited speakers of both male and female authors.

On the long table at the edge of the venue, snacks and fruit drinks are available for everyone to use.

"Well, the authoresses should be sitting over there."

Seeing a beautiful girl sitting among the gods in the male frequency area, a waiter at the scene reminded him ignorantly, which immediately attracted the angry eyes of a group of male authors.

Xiao Yulan looked at the nameplate in front of him suspiciously, but still got up and walked to the middle of the female frequency writers, and found a place to sit down.

A few minutes later, another waiter hurriedly came over and said, "Sorry, mistaken, your position should be in the male frequency area." ”

“…… What do you mean? ”

Xiao Yulan was suddenly a little depressed, it was the first time she had participated in this kind of party, so she didn't understand how this seat was arranged. Why do you look like you don't welcome yourself on both sides?

In the end, the editor in charge, Hu Qingying, came over to explain, and she understood the truth of the matter, the male frequency and female frequency authors sit separately, but although Xiao Yulan is a female author, she writes male frequency novels, so this position is not easy to arrange.

"Forget it, just sit next to us."

Hu Qingying said with a smile, it doesn't feel good to let this beautiful girl sit in the men's frequency area. They are all female compatriots, so naturally they still have to sit together.

In fact, it is not an exception for female authors to write male frequency novels, but they have not appeared in this year's great gods, at least Xiao Yulan remembers that in his previous life, there were several female authors who wrote male frequency novels, and the level was quite good.

"Lan Lan, I think your next book will return to the female frequency, right?"

A female author named Luyuan on the screen next to her jokingly said: "Since we are female compatriots, we have to be consistent!" Otherwise, if you're like this, you will always feel like we've got a traitor. ”

Xiao Yulan was quite speechless, although there are also high-quality novels in women's frequency novels, but for well-known reasons, the size of the readership group is obviously not as good as that of the men's frequency novels.

Hu Qingying smiled: "Actually, I'm curious, with Lanlan's level, if you write a female frequency novel, your performance should not be bad, right?" ”

"Well, if you have a chance, you can try it."

Xiao Yulan said ominously, and it seems that there are several female frequency novels that have achieved very popular results, and they have been adapted into TV and put on the screen. For example, Hua Qiangu, Zhen Huan's biography and so on.

After a few moments, the meeting began.

At this point in time in this world, although ordinary authors do not know what kind of works the readers prefer, the god-level authors standing at the top of the pyramid are gradually seeing that every famous god has some unique experience and experience in writing.

Normally, these experiences are not spoken, and even if they are spoken, there are not many people who are willing to believe them. Because unlike other industries, "literati are light" is a tradition that has lasted for thousands of years, and online writers have more or less touched on literati, although they may not necessarily have the status and style of literati, but some bad problems are in the same vein.

Any newcomer author who is interested in business writing is most likely very ambitious, and always feels that his level is very powerful, and he can achieve his own legend without relying on the guidance of his predecessors. This is also doomed to the fate of most authors, who are obviously writing very carefully, but readers don't buy it at all.

At this kind of high-level exchange meeting inside the website, the gods have no scruples, speak freely, and discuss happily.

Xiao Yulan, as a new god, also got the opportunity to speak, although she was the youngest among the people present, and some of the gods were more than enough to be her father. However, she did not have stage fright, and got up on stage generously.

From the setting of the title and introduction of the novel, the structure of the world background, the portrayal of the characters, the creation of contradictions and conflicts, the setting of the follow-up plot, etc., Xiao Yulan has wonderful and unique insights, and everyone present frequently bows their heads and deeply agrees.

Since it is commercial writing, it must obey the rules of the market and respect the preferences and needs of the mainstream readership, and cannot be a maverick and release drugs or sell smuggled goods in the name of writing novels, which readers will not accept.

“…… There's something I don't really understand,"

A female author with the screen name Silent Orange frowned and said: "In your male novels, the protagonists usually have two or more women, exaggerated even dozens or hundreds, and there are almost no single-minded male protagonists, do men yearn for the life of three wives and four concubines so much?" ”

was so bluntly pointed out by female compatriots, the male author's expression was somewhat unnatural, but a young male author with the screen name Chance quickly pushed back: "If readers like it, we will write it, what's so incomprehensible about this?" In many women's novels, doesn't the protagonist still have a lot of men? ”

Silent Tangerine stared at him: "There are only a few such books, and most of the heroines are still single-minded." ”

Chance smiled: "But what about the object worthy of the heroine's dedication?" Aren't they ordinary people? The president of a multinational group, a top male god, has a gentle and domineering personality, and is too good to say to the heroine, anyway, they are all similar templates. Isn't this the ideal man in the hearts of female readers? ”

"We write what mainstream readers like to read, it's as simple as that."

Xiao Yulan laughed dumbly when she heard it, the number of novels of male and female frequencies must be different, but there are similarities, that is, the other half of the protagonist will be quite perfect and excellent, and only in this way will readers be satisfied. If you get a crooked male or female corner, you can ensure that readers will immediately scold, abandon the book and leave.

The empress, who is alluring to the country and the city, and the peerless beauty chooses a stupid and bad garbage man who eats and waits for death, to be the royal husband? Or maybe the Emperor who watched the Nine Heavens and reigned over all worlds married a vicious and ugly woman like Sister Feng Ma Rong as his first match? It will definitely make the reader feel more disgusting than eating flies, and the author will inevitably be greeted by three generations of family members and ancestors.

Chance continued to fight back: "Especially some female authors don't know what kind of psychology they set up in their books as a world where women are inferior to men, women can legally marry many men, but men can only start from the beginning, and what is even more exaggerated is that they will also set up men to have children, I really don't understand whether this strange world is reasonable." Is that serious about feminism for some people? ”

Suddenly, a female author was unhappy: "Isn't this because of you men?" Why can you reasonably YY three wives and four concubines, and we can't YY overbearing president? Can't YY raise more men? ”

Qin Shiguan smiled and said, "Isn't this the end?" Everyone writes their own books, they all write books for their favorite readers, and they don't interfere with each other, so there's no need to blame each other, right? ”

Silent Tangerine said unconvinced: "But I still think that the anger of the protagonist of the male frequency novel is too heavy, and it is a routine of fighting and killing, fighting bravely, fighting for the wind, and pretending to be forced to slap the face, this kind of thing has appeared a lot, and it is not necessarily a good thing for the younger generation." ”

Chance immediately became angry: "How can you write if you don't write like this?" According to the routine of your female author? Love and hate all day long, preaching the so-called Virginianism, is it true that it is lucky? Then all the male authors will starve to death. ”

The author Phantom Blue beside him hurriedly came out to play a round: "Don't get excited, quarrels can't solve the problem, everyone discusses calmly." ”

Xiao Yulan was sitting precariously, with a new expression of "I'll just look and not speak", the confrontation between the gods, rbq, rbq.

The two sides argued back and forth for a while, and then suddenly said: "In fact, among your female compatriots, don't there be authors who agree with the concept of our male frequency novels?" For example, the tiger's big 'Buddha is the way', which belongs to the classics of male frequency novels, those elements you don't like, most of them are reflected in this book, am I right? ”

Suddenly, the eyes of almost everyone in the audience fell on Xiao Yulan. The male authors looked excited, and as for the female authors...... Looking at her really is no different from looking at a traitor.
