Chapter 83: Even if you are an enemy of 10,000 people
In this world, it is very difficult to make an ordinary writer a great writer, but it is extremely simple to destroy an ordinary writer.
Because in the world of online literature, judging the quality of a work is the readership base and sales performance, which is a cruel but most applicable measurement method to the world.
If you compare each work to a person, maybe some people have good inner cultivation, high quality, and talent. But most people don't pay much attention to your inner self when they first come into contact with you. It's more about looking at people's first impressions.
Maybe this analogy is not quite right, but it is true that in this world, the quality of your first impression can make a considerable number of people who come into contact with you for the first time feel good or disgusted.
According to the statistics of a certain data, 70% of authors who read a new book will first read the introduction, book review, book data, and the honor of the book before deciding whether to read the book or not.
Therefore, the external "packaging" of a book is very important. As long as the external "packaging" is not good, it will be difficult for the book to achieve the results that everyone expects. Of course, there are some books of platinum gods, after all, when you get to this point, the packaging of the book is not important, but the important thing is the character of your author and the quality of the book.
The easiest and worst way for an ordinary writer to ruin a book is to tear open the packaging of that book, or to add some so-called color to the packaging of the book.
Generally speaking, as long as the packaging is torn and those colors are added, the readership base and grades of most books will plummet.
Because first of all, some readers will have a herd mentality because of those things that appear in the backtest. Because even if the reader doesn't care anymore, every day when he sees those abusive and bad reviews, he will have a trace of doubt in his heart, doubting whether his choice is correct. Gradually, in constant doubt, they will slowly give up on the book.
When the readership base is lost on a large scale, the sales of the book will naturally not be very good. When you see the daily decrease in subscriptions and bad reviews, those writers who originally had dreams will slowly wear out their enthusiasm, slowly degenerate, and slowly give up.
Yang Fan too, when he saw these vicious bad reviews like a tidal wave, and saw that some readers slowly agreed with their remarks in those brainwashing remarks and gave up their books.
He was a little angry, and a little helpless, he was originally in a beautiful and bright mood because of so many more collections, but because of these became depressed, this was the first time he experienced the darkness of the online literature world, he just looked at the computer screen and leaned back in his chair and was silent.
"Could it be that it was a mistake to write a book in the first place?" Yang Fan asked himself repeatedly in his heart.
Since writing the book, the book has been plagued by many disasters. was given up by the editor again, and was rated as a bad book on the whole network, and finally the results of the book improved a little, and he was attacked and abused again.
He really just wanted to write a good book! Why did these things that shouldn't happen happen to him like this and so inexplicably!
He never recommends his books in other people's book review areas, never fights or grabs, he sincerely leaves those bad reviews as motivation to motivate himself, but it is a gimmick by people with intentions. He writes books honestly, constantly surpasses himself, and achieves today's results. But to be attacked, all this is why!
The answer is actually very simple, because the world of online literature is a battlefield.
Every writer in every book plays a role in the world of online writing, a warrior. Eventually, they will face enemies one day.
The enemy faced by the contracted writer and the book is the same contracted book. The enemies faced by unsigned books and writers are many people who question and are deeply lonely.
It's something that every book has to go through, and there is no exception.
The enemies that Yang Fan's books face are doubt, loneliness, and the fact that his books block the interests of others.
His books block the interests of the brush, the interests of the xx editorial department, and the interests of many, many new books. All this is to blame for his better and better writing, and sometimes, it is also a fault to write well.
Yang Fan is not stupid, he can see from these sudden bad comments that someone must have done all this deliberately.
But what can you do if you understand? Do you want to find it back?
But none of this is realistic. The only correct way to encounter these things is to delete those bad comments and then block those accounts.
Yang Fan sat up from his chair in a depressed mood, and was about to do so when he suddenly saw a long book review from his readers.
That reader's ID is called Lao Meng 1314, and Yang Fan has a deep memory of this ID.
This reader is the second person besides Brother Long to send him a red envelope. not only gave out red envelopes, but also gave him readers who promoted everywhere.
Lao Meng 1314 sent a long book review, and the whole book review rationally analyzed the book, listed all the shining points of the book, and then advised everyone not to believe the remarks of those water armies.
Lao Meng's book review of 1314 actually has a lot of typos and some sentences that are not very smooth, which looks a little awkward, but from between the lines, it can be seen that he has invested all his emotions in this book review. You can also see his anger and helplessness from his typos.
Lao Meng's long book review of 1314 has become the focus of those who are interested in backtesting. Most of them ridiculed him for his typos for not being highly educated, and ridiculed that this book was for people with a low level of education.
Lao Meng 1314 did not respond to those trolls, but patiently responded to those who questioned the work.
Those who ridiculed Lao Meng's 1314 level of education were even more intense because of his disregard.
Lao Meng's 1314 book review is like a wild dog that has strayed into a pack of hungry wolves, attacked by a pack of hungry wolves. But he has the tenacity of a wild dog and the persistence of a wild dog, no matter how brutal and cruel the attack is, he will never admit defeat and compromise.
How ferocious the hungry wolves of the wolf pack are. He just lowered his head and gritted his teeth. Endure in silence. It's all just for the attachment in his heart.
When Yang Fan saw this book review, the anger in his heart finally broke out.
He went directly to the tuba, blocked all accounts that attacked Lao Meng 1314, and added top and essence to Lao Meng 1314's book review.
Then leave a message below.
My book is written for people like him who are not highly educated, what can you do?
Yang Fan wrote this message that was very likely to smash the signboard of his book. But Yang Fan had no regrets and was still angry.
He immediately opened a single chapter, replied to all the so-called doubts, and at the end he wrote angrily,
"You can ridicule my books, but you can't ridicule the readers of my books, regardless of their birth or level of education. You don't deserve to be ridiculed, and even if, as you say, readers with a low level of education are suitable for reading my books, then I will write my books to them!
I will never stop writing, and I will never give up writing because of your insults! Because I am a writer! And because every reader who likes my books is my most precious treasure!"
Yang Fan finished writing this chapter angrily and clicked publish. Then he lit a cigarette and stood up.
He understands that this chapter will definitely be criticized, have you ever seen an author like him who maintains a reader? Have you ever seen an author who would open a single chapter for a reader to be wronged? No one has opened it, because this not only makes others feel hypocritical, but also makes people feel that the writer of this book is an incompetent writer who is not good at writing books and only knows how to play the emotional card.
However, Yang Fan did so. Because he was an incompetent writer, he only felt that he had to defend his loyal readers!
In this brutal battlefield, every book and every writer is a warrior, the pen is their sword, and the reader is their shield. When they fight, some people will only use their shields to resist the attacks again and again, while some people will lightly hold the shield behind their backs and attack the opponent again and again with their swords, even if they are covered in bruises, they will not take a step back, because the shield behind him is his most precious thing.
Yang Fan never thought that this chapter of his would have a great impact on his future life as a writer...
