Chapter 21: Some Miscellaneous Words
There are three main driving forces for the development of the work in the starting novel, one is to rely on the plot to promote the work, the second is to rely on the characters to lead to the plot, and the third is to rely on the magic weapon to determine the trend. Among them, the third case is only a minority, and it has already been mentioned above, so I will not say more about it here. In contrast, the first two patterns are more common and more traditional.
These two ways of writing, the first mode has lower requirements for character portrayal, even if the character image is vague and the character is not distinct, it will not affect the development of the plot, while the latter one, on the contrary, the author does not need to consider the complete plot structure before writing, but must have a good grasp of the character building, especially the personality of the protagonist must be highlighted, and then, let the characters in the book themselves promote the development of the plot.
At first glance, the second mode has certain requirements for character building, which seems to be more difficult, but in fact, this one is a relatively simple model. You must know that if a work wants to be successful, although it doesn't need much creativity, after all, it can't be exactly the same as someone else's work, otherwise even if it's not plagiarism, it will make readers feel bored, so there should be some changes. And if it is a work driven by the plot, if you want to write differently, you must think about each plot and try to write new ideas, and the works that rely on the characters to promote, you only need to spend a little effort on the character setting, and then, it is completely up to the characters to decide the plot, when the character personality is prominent, the same plot cause, will develop different processes, different results, it seems, that is, it has new ideas, so, this kind of work, the trouble is only temporary, and it will save a lot of trouble in general.
So, how can you create a character with a distinct image? I think it's an easy way for newcomers who don't have enough pen skills to make the characters face. Although this is not a superior means, and it is easy to make the characters lack aura, at least, the character image after facial painting will be more distinct, the character can be more prominent, and it is easier to grasp in a specific plot.
To create a face-painted character, the main thing to pay attention to is simplification, such as setting this person to be arrogant, to highlight this, and all the way to the end, and don't let him have a complex character, what is arrogant with kindness, kindness sandwiched with tyranny, it is very important, although this will make the character more real and fuller, but it destroys the face image, but it is not easy to be remembered by readers.
In order to make up for the monotony of the face, there is a small trick that can be used, that is, artificially create some small flaws for the characters, or more special habits, such as especially love bananas, such as especially dislike shampoo, such as hating others touching his beard, such as liking to touch his nose when he has nothing to do, or, like to say a certain classic mantra, and so on. With these features, the character will look much fuller at first glance, and it will also make the tall character appear more approachable, and at the same time, those features will be easier for the reader to remember, especially when a feature becomes the character's signature.
The above techniques can not only be used on the protagonist, but also consider adding to the supporting role, and because he is only a supporting role, he can also have more flaws without thinking too much about the reader's perception. This technique can be used in most works, especially competitive works, because it has relatively high requirements for character portrayal, in addition to the protagonist, other teammates or main opponents are also very important, this kind of work, often has a large number of characters, and as soon as they appear, it is a group, if the characters lack distinguishable characteristics, it is difficult to be distinguished by readers, let alone remembered by them.
Another place where this technique may be used is in the portrayal of the heroine. In many works, the heroine is not the only one, and there will even be many, and many new authors lack both life experience and pen power, and it is difficult to portray each heroine vividly, and even, many times, we see the same vase heroine, except for the different names, there is no difference between the others.
In fact, if you want to improve it here, there is a clever way, which is similar to the above arrangement defects, and we also add various superficial characteristics to several heroines, for example, heroine A has very big breasts, heroine B is a little Luoli, heroine C is good at dancing, heroine D is particularly rich, and heroine E is particularly cold...... As long as these characteristics are reflected from time to time in later episodes, the characters will be easily distinguished by the reader, who will remember who is the girl who can sing and who is the girl who can dance, and who in turn will think that these heroines are not vases. In this way, the reader's impression of the work will naturally be much better.
In addition to the portrayal of the characters, when setting the characters, it is also clear whether they are passers-by A and Song Bing B who are used once, or important supporting roles throughout the whole text, and the intensity of their descriptions should be different. At the same time, after setting up the characters, they must also reasonably arrange the order and way of their appearance, especially the time of appearance should be controlled, if there are too many characters at one time, it is easy to cause chaos, not only the author himself is not easy to control, but also distract the reader's attention, which also causes them to be uncomfortable.
In addition, regarding the characters, the last point to note is that no matter how many characters are portrayed, no matter what kind of relationship these characters have, one thing must be clear, that is, the protagonist is the supreme being, any character exists for him and serves him, everything must be centered on the protagonist and focus on him, and even, there should not be a large part of the plot where the protagonist is not present. Emphasizing the existence of the protagonist and emphasizing his role is the royal road of YY.
The cheats about the portrayal of the heroine are to draw inferences
