Chapter 89: The Dragon's Head
In addition to the character design of the male and female protagonists, in a novel like this, of course, a role of the male protagonist's brother must be added, so it will be named "Liu Wendong".
Like the male protagonist, he was born at the bottom, and before he was black, he was actually a good person, but he was slowly dyed black after all, and became a bottomless and unscrupulous villain, which is in stark contrast to the image of the male protagonist Chen Yuesheng who has a bottom limit and adheres to principles.
Maybe such a character is the true portrayal of many people who are mixed with underworld bosses in reality, and an ideal character like the male protagonist will only appear in novels.
And the huge contradiction between the male protagonist Chen Yuesheng and his good brother Liu Wendong because of the concept, and finally a brotherly duel, is also a classic in many underworld novels, some people may think it is vulgar, but Wang Defu's work is the pioneering work of underworld novels, so naturally there is no vulgar worry.
And to be honest, the cliché plot actually depends on the author's pen power, and the author of Xiong Jian's pen power can often write cliché plots particularly fascinating, Wang Defu is this kind of talented author.
After Wang Defu did a good job in character design, he began to work on the outline of this novel again, and he still did not forget the original intention of writing this work at this time, that is, he wanted to write a best-selling novel, so no matter how much this work reflects reality, it is essentially an upgraded liushuang article, written about how a little person became the godfather of the underworld step by step.
In this process, the male protagonist Chen Yuesheng may encounter all kinds of difficulties and setbacks, but every process of solving difficulties and setbacks is bound to be a certain climactic plot of the novel, and there will be no lack of plots in the novel that readers like to see pretending to be forced to slap their faces, as well as with the improvement of status, the attitude of the people around him towards the male protagonist changes.
And although this is a novel with a single female protagonist, the plot will not focus too much on love, but it is definitely not only the female protagonist who loves the male protagonist, when the male protagonist climbs higher and higher, there will naturally be many women who will send it to the door, but the male protagonist only loves the female protagonist alone.
This may be able to attract female readers invisibly, after all, such a male protagonist may also be the ideal type in their minds.
Of course, some female readers prefer the scumbag-type male protagonist, surrounded by beauty, but they only care about the female protagonist, three thousand weak water, and only take one scoop.
Wang Defu has not done a complete outline until the beginning of school, and it is expected that this work will write about 400,000 words, which is definitely a huge work, if it is written according to the online text, then such an upgraded underworld cool text, it is estimated that it can write four million words.
In fact, in a sense, the online article is a draft article, as long as the online article is well refined, if it is detailed and appropriate, then its value can naturally go to the next level, but this is obviously impossible, after all, for the author of the online article, the number of words represents the manuscript fee.
Such a work of about 400,000 can be published in two volumes, and to complete such a work, if it is purely original, it is estimated that it will take Kao Defu 8 months, fortunately, he has a lot of classic plots in his mind to learn from, and it should take 4 months to complete, of which 1 month will be used to revise.
Even if it is a popular novel that readers want to be fascinated by, Wang Defu will not fool readers at will, he is absolutely extremely devout about writing, and he will definitely be fully prepared before writing each work.
Originally, Wang Defu wanted to directly name this novel "The Godfather", because he felt that the title of the book was quite compelling, but after thinking about it, there is no such thing as a godfather in the underworld in China, and the biggest gangster is called "Gang Leader", but if the novel is named "Gang Leader", he always feels that the forced style has dropped several levels compared to "The Godfather".
The title of a book is of course not the most critical factor in whether the book can sell well, but the quality of the title will determine whether readers will be attracted and then enter the pit, so no matter what, Wang Defu hopes to give his popular novel a good name.
Wang Defu thought of a lot of names, such as the Demon Capital Beach, Chen Yuesheng's demonic life, how the helper was refined, etc., but he always felt that it was a lot worse, and finally he decided to name this work - "Dragon Head".
The leader of the dragon is also another name for the leader of the Chinese gangster, so he named this work "The Dragon's Head", although it still doesn't sound as flavorful as "The Godfather", but Wang Defu knows that this is a preconceived reason, "The Godfather" is such a classic as "The Godfather" does exist in his mind, and "The Dragon's Head", a Chinese version of "The Godfather", needs to be written by him himself.
"Dragon's head" also has the meaning of "leader of outstanding people", which is naturally more in line with the positioning of the protagonist of Wang Defu's novel, he wants to use his protagonist to standardize an ideal underworld world - the night gave me black eyes, but I used it to find light.
The most ideal underworld is clearly that there is no underworld, and the most fair and fair party organization takes root at the grassroots level and controls the grassroots, so that the underworld does not have any room for existence.
However, it is ironic that in this world, the most closely related to the police is also the underworld, black and white form a strange gray balance, people with no money and no power go to the police is useless, but the poor are more useful to find the underworld......
The longer Wang Defu lived in this capitalist empire, the more he felt that there was something really wrong with the country's system, but all he could do was to criticize the imperial government and various unfair social phenomena through his works, including the status quo of the metropolis where the underworld controls the grassroots in a grand manner.
Readers who can read the deepest meaning of "the most ideal underworld is no underworld" that Wang Defu wants to express from the work "Dragon's Head" means that he really understands this novel, but such readers will only be a minority after all, and most readers will be lively, happy, and enjoyable, which is enough.
