Chapter 8 Isn't it good in the middle of the night?
When Qi Shang returned home, it was already half past ten in the evening.
Of course, it wasn't too late for him.
What's more, he still has part-time work to complete today.
Codeword.
Speaking of which, it has been more than three months since he started writing novels online.
When I was about to start writing, my eyes were black, I didn't have any experience, so I wrote it.
I also chose a sci-fi theme.
After all, I have done it in the research institute anyway, and I still have a foundation for writing some science fiction novels.
Besides, he has always wanted to write a novel set in the universe.
Just do it, and the first novel came out.
Then, there is no then.
I pounced on my grandmother's house......
It's really unattended.
Chapter by chapter was posted on the Internet, but no editor asked him to sign a contract.
Qi Shang generated electricity for love for two months, and finally coded 200,000 words, and finally couldn't stand the loneliness and finished the book.
So, it can only be said to be a rare experience.
Fortunately, he didn't write novels to earn money to support himself.
After all, if you drive a special car, in addition to paying off the loan for buying a car, as well as rent and daily expenses, you can still have more than 1,000 yuan left in a pitiful way.
That's already pretty good.
It is precisely because Qi Shang did not put too much pressure on himself in writing a novel that he did not collapse because of the failure of the first book.
On the contrary, he also summed up a little experience of his own.
In his book of "Summary of Writing Experience", he summed up 5 lessons from failure in one breath.
The first of these is that this is about writing science fiction, not about writing scientific papers, not about doing scientific research, but about writing science fiction for fun......
Anyway, right.
Qi Shang made preparations again, and soon began his second novel.
That is, he is now writing every day - "The Gate of All Worlds".
It's 80,000 words now.
Moreover, the second book is an improvement over the first.
The book was signed a few days ago!
That said, the book finally has hope of making money.
Of course, Qi Shangke didn't dare to expect how much money he could really make from this book.
After all, until now, not many people have read the book, and the reviews are only a few and far between.
Most of this is still advertising and purified water......
However, with the stimulus of signing this achievement, it has been able to provide him with enough code word motivation for the time being.
In his conception, this will be a story about the hero exploring the boundaries of the universe and discovering countless parallel universes.
And interestingly, at the beginning, he was going to write a novel without a heroine.
After all, the theme of this novel doesn't need to be a male or female love.
But today, when Qi Shang opened his notebook as usual, sat at the desk, and was about to complete today's code word task, he had just typed "Chapter 45", and he fell into deep thought.
Or, it's not bad to have a heroine?
Besides, if the male protagonist has a cute and smart female protagonist by his side, wouldn't his journey to explore the sea of stars be more relaxed and interesting?
Isn't it a joy to see the male and female protagonists working together to send candy and add a little sweetness to the world in the novel?
……
Well, who's to say it's not?
Qi Shang is not a tangled person when it comes to writing novels.
Now that there is already this idea.
Then, just do it!
What about the specific character of the heroine? How should it be designed?
Qi Shang only thought about it for a while, and he had a preliminary idea in his mind.
The corners of his mouth inadvertently curved into a sly smile.
Of course, I refer to the samples around me.
For example, Jiang Ying's little sister paper.
Isn't this little lamb a ready-made heroine template?
Hey, hey, hey......
The more Qi Shang thought about it, the happier he became, and he even forgot the hard work of code words.
Clicking on the keyboard, the words flowed out of the fingers and remained in the word file.
An hour passed, and Qi Shang stood up satisfied and stretched.
That's it!
Today's efficiency is particularly high, and I finished a chapter in an hour, more than 2,200 words!
This made Qi Shang very happy.
You know, in terms of codewords, he is really a novice, and he is completely different from those great gods and tentacle monsters.
At his previous pace, it usually took him an hour and a half to two hours to finish a chapter.
This time, it was surprisingly smooth.
Qi Shang took a sip of water and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It seems that adding a girl to spice up in the novel is really not a bad thing, huh?
If you are happy to write yourself, maybe the reader will be happy too?
After all, can't you be counted as the first reader?
……
Qi Shang checked the typos again, clicked send directly, and posted the latest chapter online.
Then, I clicked on the backstage of the writer's assistant with great interest and wanted to take a look at my collection.
I've written 80,000 words, I've just signed a contract, and the status of the book on the Internet has just changed.
Because it hasn't even been scheduled to test the water, in fact, the exposure is still very small.
Now there are more than 90 collections.
However, Qi Shang had already begun to look forward to it silently.
Maybe test the water and push it and then take off?
Hey, hey, it's still beautiful to think about......
The work information page opens.
Today's Collection: -1.
Ha ha......
Qi Shang smiled bitterly sadly.
Well, it's not good today, and I lost one of my collections.
I thought I could rush 100.
Qi Shang was sad for a while, and it passed.
Hold on, millions will be God! The end of the book must be God!
Well, this is what I heard from the old authors in the author group.
Qi Shang is convinced!
……
After a brief wash, Qi Shang lay on the bed, and when he started to brush his face against his mobile phone in the dark, the time was just past 12 midnight.
I'm happy today, he's not so sleepy.
opened WeChat, and saw Jiang Ying's avatar at a glance.
Qi Shang was snickering stupidly again.
skillfully clicked into Jiang Ying's circle of friends, and there were a few news she had recently posted.
Qi Shang blinked in satisfaction.
He saw that Jiang Ying's circle of friends was set up the same as him, which only showed the latest month's dynamics.
This is the time span that Qi Shang thinks is more appropriate.
It's not as short as 3 days, and it's not as long as half a year.
Qi Shang clicked on Jiang Ying's recent circle of friends.
It was a story from a few days ago, and there were a few photos in it.
Two of them are photos of Jiang Ying and her best friend.
Qi Shang looked back and forth through the two photos with great interest, and then zoomed in to see the details.
What kind of face, small waist......
Jiang Ying smiled in the photo, her eyes crooked, revealing two small tiger teeth.
In one of the photos, he playfully tilted his head and jumped up lightly to stay in the air.
It's like a little kid coming home happily from kindergarten.
Qi Shang saw a person's "hey, hey, hey" smirk, and finally couldn't hold it back, and his backhand was a thumbs up.
After brushing Jiang Ying's circle of friends, Qi Shang turned over and quit satisfied.
Immediately I saw a small red "1" pop up in my "Discover" column.
Hey, at night, who doesn't sleep and brush up on Moments?
Qi Shang clicked back to look at it.
Then, I arrived at the circle of friends that I posted a month ago.
Yes, Qi is not very dynamic, and the average is one or two a month.
Well?!
This is a new thumbs up.
The person who liked it turned out to be Jiang Ying!
The time to like it is just now.
This can make Qi Shang happy.
Dare to love two people at night are brushing each other's circle of friends.
Qi Shang couldn't help but smirk and clicked on Jiang Ying's chat interface, clicked on the chat window, and looked at the cursor in a daze.
Well, a little hesitant.
It's late at night, isn't it good?
But at this moment, Qi Shang's eyes lit up.
When he saw Jiang Ying's state, he became ......
The other party is typing...
