In a richly renovated villa with a sea view, a tall man is lazily lying on a sofa. The man's facial features, sunny and handsome, sword eyebrows and starry eyes are like the male protagonist of idol dramas, but with an uninhibited smile on his face, he destroys his original sunny image and looks a little frivolous.

His name is Li Tianren, he is an online writer, his parents are famous screenwriters, and he has written many film and television scripts.

Since he was a child, he naturally became interested in literary creation, and at the same time, he also worked hard for his father as an idol, and when he was in college, he applied for his favorite literature major according to his interests.

His father's wish was that his son would follow in his father's footsteps and become a famous screenwriter. and wanted to take his son to enter his screenwriter's circle, but because his parents basically wrote Qing court and Republic of China dramas, so the circle was full of these screenwriters, when this kind of screenwriter needs a very rich history and customs and cultural precipitation, Li Tianren tried to integrate into this screenwriter's circle, and finally found that his personality and writing style were really inappropriate and gave up.

He yearns for more free creation, more flexible and changeable themes, last year, recommended by a friend, he participated in the xx net fairy essay competition, he wrote "Demon Fairy Change" from the thirtieth chapter update, has been maintained in the top ten of the xx network click list, the top ten of the recommended vote list, and gained more than 100,000 fans, that sense of accomplishment prompted him to continue writing. With his unbridled imagination and rigorous writing, as well as unexpected foreshadowing. After it was put on the shelves, he stabilized in the top 10 of the total subscription list. In the last month, I received an average of 15,000 subscriptions per day. It has created a myth of Xianxia online literature with more than 50 million hits. In the end, he undoubtedly slashed the soul of the 2016 Xianxia Novel Essay Champion and the title of Newcomer King.

Later, his new book, "Genesis", further created a website myth. 250,000 words, come over 10,000 collections. There are still 50,000 words left to be on the shelves, and basically the editors of the xx net fairy class are looking forward to whether he can break the record of the previous book on the shelves.

In fact, according to the manuscript he had in hand and the speed at which he updated the book, it would be on the shelves in two days, but he didn't choose to do so, he was bored lying on the sofa, because he was in a bad mood at this time.

He has achieved this amazing result, and he happily shares it with his parents, wanting them to be as happy as he is. But my father only read two chapters and said two words to him.

The first word is childishness, and the second word is boredom. These two words shattered his heart, which was originally excited because his work was recognized by readers. He loudly questioned why his parents didn't approve of his work, after all, it was a book with hundreds of thousands of collections and 50 million views.

Father sighed, said something you don't understand, and then left only a lonely back.

Later, he learned from his mother that his father had spent three years writing a script, negotiated the investor and the partner, and finally the investor told him that the amount originally promised to invest had shrunk by two-thirds, and all the shrinking money was invested in a fantasy fairytale-themed web drama.

There were not enough funds to shoot, so my father's three-year hard work was in vain.

At that time, after listening to it, his first reaction was that his father was making too much of a fuss, and the second reaction was that he thought that his writing and works had surpassed his father. What was once so majestic is now so small.

His phone rang, he sat up slowly, then walked slowly to the phone, looked at the caller ID, hesitated, and then connected.

"I'm a newbie, did you see your results yesterday? 1400 collections in one day!" came a milky female voice on the phone, and the language was full of excitement and excitement.

"Isn't it just 1400 collections, it's normal. Li Tianren plucked his ears and said disdainfully.

"Wow, how much is that going up is abnormal? Many Xianxia works don't have so many collections when they are written to 250,000 words. A milky female voice followed.

"What's the matter, I have to raise 100,000 collections a day to barely qualify, don't compare me with those third-rate writers, I'm a genius, fries. ”

"I know, I know, you're the best! I'm going to help you apply for a recommendation on the big page of the homepage. After speaking, he hung up the phone very rudely, and Li Tianren seemed to be used to such a situation. He tossed his phone down the table, pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his trouser pocket, tore open the package and leaned back in his chair, remembering when he first started writing.

His first book didn't start out well. Because the beginning of the novel is foreshadowing and pits, let the reader read in the clouds, there are a lot of clicks, there are few collections, and I was notified to sign a contract until I wrote 60,000 words.

And the editor in charge of him is just a novice intern editor. He had the idea of abandoning the book and rewriting it.

The editor in charge is French fries, and because she is the new editor of the internship, she has only assigned one author, and when he was the most difficult and confused, French fries have always supported him, and incarnated as a little fan of his work, and has been urging him to persevere.

Fate is so wonderful. Novice editors were not optimistic about novice authors at that time.

But the fries unconditionally supported, and in order to promote his novels, he pulled down his cheeks and asked for a recommendation position, of course, the editorial department could not recommend a newcomer, so she privately helped him publicize, and brought her classmates and her whole family to watch the vote.

This kind of thing is not glorious, Li Tianren understands her intentions, and in order to earn a breath of anger without a recommended position, she spends seven or eight hours a day carefully selecting her works. In order to be worthy of her support. He changed 12,000 a day a day.

Hard work pays off. By the time he wrote 40 chapters and 130,000 words, his collections, clicks, and recommendation votes skyrocketed. Like a dark horse into the rankings, and then kept this momentum to win the championship.

After the grades were good, it was natural that other websites wanted to poach him. And offered a six-figure annual salary and a high level of benefits, but he refused, and the reason for refusing was only because there was no editor on other websites called French Fries.

He won the first place in the essay competition with "Demon Fairy Change", and the French fries also became an official editor by virtue of the author I am a novice.

Of course, when the author has achievements, for his future development and website development, it is natural to have a seasoned editor to guide him. But Li Tianren refused, and the reason for the refusal was that I was a novice without fries, and the little girl who gave the fries was moved to cry at that time.

Thinking of this, Li Tianren put the cigarette in the ashtray and extinguished it, he stretched, and then moved his chair to the computer and began to update his novel today.
