Chapter Twenty-Three: Heroes See the Same Thing

On either side of a table, the two of them had their own thoughts.

“…… Or let me read your novels. I don't read novels and don't pick them. ”

Yun Qingmu was a little more interested, leaned forward and said.

Ji Zhuo raised his head and glanced at Yun Qingmu.

You don't pick? If you don't pick me to open a trumpet, you can find it in a thousand ways.

If you don't pick, why do you always grab my books to read?

Obviously, some readers are boasting about their books, but they don't know that they are the author of that book.

This kind of dark thing,

Why do I still feel panicked?

Really!

Still have to blame the system.

Hey, it's all because the system took away my happiness.

Don't compensate me more, give me some money, and make it up for me.

“…… Hmph, don't talk about it. I look at the same with the novel of this dog author. It's pretty good, too. ”

Yun Qingmu snorted, and then sat back.

It can be seen that the dog author has finally released a new book, which makes her mood much happier.

And the happier he was when he saw Yun Qingmu, the more congested Ji Zhuo's heart became.

Boringly, he picked up the skewer again and took a vicious bite.

……

"That's clumsy, we'll meet again another day."

“…… Well. ”

Two people with different joys and sorrows dispersed after eating a meal of skewers.

One is because the dog author's new book has been released, and everyone is still a little excited to go home.

The other was that because the new book was released, it was not as pounced as expected, and the whole person felt uncomfortable and panicked.

All right

The data will definitely not rise later.

Can such a niche theme still be popularized by me?

Blowing a cool wind into the night, Ji Zhuo cheered up a little,

I called a Didi and went back to my accommodation.

……

“…… Boss, let's have a bowl of noodles and add two fried eggs. ”

"Okay, wait a minute."

Bustling city.

Ye Linhan, who once left a comment under "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", "I once wanted to be fresh and angry, and fight the sword in the world", walked into the noodle restaurant he frequented again,

As usual, the owner of the noodle restaurant wore an apron, cleaned up the table, greeted the guests, and went into the back kitchen to work.

Next to him, the noodle shop owner's wife also helped, and the noodle shop owner's son sat at the table in the innermost corner, quietly doing his homework.

Ye Linhan sat down by the window.

At this time, he changed into loose clothes, his face was not so tired and dark circles, and there was a slight muscular amplitude in his arms.

There was still a layer of sweat on his forehead, and he seemed to have just exercised.

He resigned and left the company that was 996 Blessings.

Unlike every resignation he has ever had since he worked, there was no impulse, and there was no thought it would be.

But there was no hesitation.

This time, he clearly realized that he was an ordinary person, but he still didn't want to live a life of mediocrity and chaos.

Even if he is a 'mortal', he wants to struggle, but it's a big deal to fall on the road of struggle.

Life dies, can you live to walk?

may also be the novel "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" that stimulated him again at the end.

Looking around the noodle shop,

Ye Linhan lowered his head again and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

"Canyon Grass: What do you think of this new book by the dog author?"

"Honestly: To be honest, I feel that the writing is quite good, and the author should write it carefully. But I look a little uncomfortable...... Well, it's just a lot of work. ”

"The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea: It should be the background, I don't like this kind of Western fantasy very much, it's still the Middle Ages, the Western fantasy of the steam age, the protagonist is still a foreigner, or an indigenous ......"

Ye Linhan had rewarded the alliance leader of "Mortal Immortal Cultivator" before, so he was naturally in this group built by Yun Qing.

Ye Linhan had received a message from the group that a new book had been sent that 'Era Coincidental' had been sent.

However, he didn't hurriedly put down what he was doing to see like the other people in the group.

He just finished his own things the same way, and only then did he take out his phone when he was free.

glanced at the news in the group, Ye Linhan didn't care too much,

The novel still has to be to your own taste,

I started reading the APP and found the book "Revival Cthulhu", and Ye Linhan read it carefully.

“…… It's been raining for a month......"

From the beginning, an exotic world is coming.

Ye Linhan is still in a calm mood now, and he can see it more carefully.

Watching the story of an archaeologist Howard gradually unfold,

The Night's Watch, the Church, the evil gods, the chaotic and unspeakable gods of the Cthulhu Mythos.

All of this has already begun to take place in the first five chapters.

“…… Whew......"

After reading it carefully, I even paused when I saw the details,

After reading the five chapters released by this author, Ye Lin Han let out a long sigh,

Well, he's interested in this book.

The setting is completely different from other novels, and a power system that is detached from tradition.

I can even feel that this novel hides a richer and larger worldview.

I feel that the author has written this book seriously, and the development of the story is quite good.

It just looks like it's really strenuous.

And this book reveals a 'niche' from the classification, theme, title, introduction, and even the beginning, and the character setting.

To be honest, if he hadn't read the previous book by this author, he would have probably skimmed through this book directly, and he wouldn't have clicked in to read it at all.

Most readers who click in may see the main character's name and even leave at the synopsis.

Readers don't read it, and naturally they can't ask questions about whether they like it or not, and whether they are interested or not.

Therefore, he will continue to read this book, but he feels that most of the results of this book will not be good.

“…… Brother,"

Just when Ye Linhan finished thinking and raised his head again, he found that

The student who was still writing his homework at the dining table was standing beside him at this time, looking at him with burning eyes.

The student looked at him, hesitated, determined a title, and then looked at the phone in his hand,

"What novel are you reading?"

Scold?

It seems that you are too fascinated by it, and you are attracted to the students who are writing homework next to you?

Ye Linhan couldn't help laughing,

"It's called Revival Cthulhu"

"Oh."

Looking at the thoughtful look of this student,

Ye Linhan couldn't help but smile in his heart,

Dog author, I've helped you get a reader.

……

"You have been reported, deduct 3 credit points......"

"Gan!"

The new book was released, and I ate a supper,

Back at his residence, Ji Zhuo played a game to relieve the nervousness of the release of the new book and the depression of the new book's current results.

Then, as a matter of course, the five consecutive kneeling was also reported to give people heads.

The mobile phone that was about to run out of battery was thrown to the side, and Ji Zhuo lost his dream a little.

I felt even more depressed, and the whole person collapsed on the bed and did not move.

After a while, he moved again and picked up the phone.

He still couldn't hold back,

Opened the Writer's Backstage.

……

The squid opened the codeword software.

Looking at some of the materials that have been collected, I am thinking and organizing the outline.

Ever since I saw the 'Cthulhu Mythos' posted by Ji Zhuo in the group before,

After thinking about it for a while, he decided that the theme of the new book would be Cthulhu Mythos and steampunk.

However, he still likes to sort out at least half of the outline in advance when writing a new book.

It's a lot easier to write this way.

Now I am still in the stage of writing the outline and the detailed outline, and I haven't written a chapter of the main article, or even the name of the novel.

"Ding-dong."

At this time, a message came up from the penguin chat.

The squid pauses his keyboard for a moment and turns his gaze.

……

“…… Boss, you're still working overtime. ”

In the headquarters building of the first reading novel,

Editorial office, the lights are still on.

After finishing the shift, the editor yawned, and while packing up his things,

Turn off the computer and get up.

When I turned my head, I saw that not far away, the editor-in-chief of the editorial team was still facing the computer, typing on the keyboard from time to time.

"Talk to the big guy about his new book."

The editor-in-chief turned his head, responded with a smile, and paused again,

"A few days ago, the editor-in-chief held a meeting and talked about several editorial groups in a bloody manner. During this time, there have been no popular novels on the website. Several other websites are also crazy and crazy about grabbing people.

This quarter, the website data has dropped a bit. ”

As he spoke, the editor-in-chief turned his head again,

"It just so happens that there is a platinum author under my hand, and the old book has been completed. I asked him when the new book would be released. Let's see how the new books far. Can there be some breakthroughs? ”

"Squid?"

Naturally, Bimo also knew about the situation of the authors under his editorial team, so he asked.

"Yes."

The editor-in-chief nodded, and then replied to the message on the computer.

"You're done, go back first."

"Okay."

Pen and ink nodded, and didn't ask the editor-in-chief why he didn't work overtime here and didn't go back to contact the author.

After all, not everyone likes to take work home with them.

“…… Oh, that's right. ”

"The author of "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" under your hand has sent a new book, right?"

Just as the pen and ink were about to turn away, the editor-in-chief suddenly remembered something and turned his head and asked.

"Yes, the new book has just opened. Boss, do you know him? ”

"I also think of his book "Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", although the results are not very outstanding, but it is unique in the current trend of online literature, and it is difficult for the author who writes this kind of book against the trend and can still achieve certain results not to be impressive."

"Boss, you think highly of him."

"Well, although the writing in that book is a little lacking, it is very well written. By the way, how about his new book? ”

The editor-in-chief replied to the author's message while talking with the same pen and ink.

“…… Well, it's hard to tell. The writing feels a little improved. So far, the development and development of the plot has been good. But the subject matter and classification are too niche. ”

“…… Well...... You go back in a moment, send me the title of his new book, and I'll take a look at it. ”

"Okay."

Pen and ink left.

In the editorial office, the editor-in-chief is still sitting in front of the computer with a bright screen.

On the computer screen, the editor-in-chief chats with the squid's penguin interface.

Editor-in-Chief: Cthulhu theme? I know this, but will it be too niche, and with the background of the overhead Western Fantasy Steam era, is it even more niche? ”

"Squid: I'm feeling fine. The subject matter itself is actually not niche, but readers lack awareness and understanding of it, and the mythological genre of Cthulhu naturally gives readers a sense of unknown mystery.

Squid: And precisely because the Cthulhu Mythos itself is not well known to readers, it may seem a bit of a novelty to readers.

Editor-in-Chief: Hmm...... Is there a chapter now, can you show me?

Squid: I'm still in the process of writing an outline, and it may take more than half a month to start writing chapters. ”

Looking at the chat log, the editor-in-chief hesitated, but still didn't say much.

For this kind of god, it is good to mention that their own grasp of the market's reaction is not necessarily weaker than that of editors.

Although the editor has certain expectations for the market reaction under normal circumstances,

But he has read too many books, and sometimes he is a little wooden, and it is difficult to grasp the signs of weak changes in the market.

Most of the time, it's the data after reading the book and sending it out.

"Editor-in-Chief: Have you decided on the title of the book?"

After a casual question, the editor-in-chief was ready to end the chat.

Everything has to wait for the writing to be written.

"Squid: A couple of ideas. Not sure yet.

Squid: "The Fool", "The Mysterious Fool", "The Master of the Mystery", "The King of Yellow and Black"

Editor-in-Chief: Well, it's not bad, you think. Keep busy, I won't bother. ”

The editor-in-chief said another sentence and ended the chat with the author under him.

After a pause, he was ready to pack up and get off work.

saw that there was another red dot on the penguin chat interface,

The editor in charge sent a message.

"Pen and Ink: Boss, the title of that author's new book is "Revival Cthulhu"

"Cthulhu?"

looked at it, didn't reply to the message,

The editor-in-chief repeated in a low voice,

Also a Cthulhu theme?

Is this what the hero sees?

Maybe this type of book can really be popular?

He couldn't help but think so.

……

“…… Call. ”

Opened the Writer's Backstage.

Looking at the end of the refresh of the circle,

The data of the new book came out, and Ji Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief.

Revive Cthulhu

122 favorites, 175 recommendations, 28 reviews, 10 tips, 25 investments.

This data is still a significant increase compared to when I was still in a barbecue restaurant before.

But at the same time, it is obvious that the growth rate has gradually slowed down.

Ji Zhuo refreshed again, and the data did not change.

Really!

His judgment is still right, waiting for the old readers to pass this wave of heat,

This book must have hit the streets!

The subject matter is too niche, with his current attributes, even if he can write this book barely well,

But there's certainly no way to bring this genre to fire!

Isn't that stable!

A smile appeared on his face,

Ji Zhuo opened the comment area, and as soon as he saw the comments, there were even more smiles on his face.

The previous group of urging changes, the past of punching in,

As he expected, the influence of the book's alternate Western fantasy medieval setting, which affects the sense of substitution, and the choice of niche themes, gradually emerged.

It's not all bad reviews, it's ......

"I feel that the author writes very well, but I don't have the patience to read it. Probably not the author's problem, it's mine. ”

"If it weren't for this author, I wouldn't have clicked in and read it. It is recommended that the author revise the title and introduction of the book. ”

"After reading it carefully, there are only two feelings, it looks a little tired in the early stage, and the setting is quite interesting."

"Everyone has said their evaluations, so let's talk about them too. In a word, 'niche boutique'"

“…… I love it! I find it interesting to the author! It's still the same as the previous book, it's just a clear stream! Very different style and genre from other books! It's so much fun to watch! ”

Well, automatically ignore the last comment, it must be that part of the niche readers, or the fans who came over from the previous book with a fan filter.

Take a look at other book reviews, isn't this stable!

I wrote this book seriously, not perfunctory at all, and wrote it so stumblingly and so persistently.

It's kind of worthy of readers, but you don't like to read it.

Ha ha......

Ji Zhuo looked at the comments and thought to himself,

The smile on his face couldn't help but become more and more,

The grin gets bigger and bigger, and the smile gradually becomes perverted.

Scold!

Dog system!

You've got it!

…… Eh, by the way, I don't know if these places in small counties are limited to purchase.

If there is no limit to purchase,

Ji Zhuo will change to live in another city in the future, and buy a house in the county seat of the city.

One million a month, two months to buy a house in the county is not easy.

Ha ha!

Just highlight a rampant.

……

Following.

Ji Zhuo got up from the bed, and he didn't do anything else.

I touched my phone, and then looked at the data of the new book.

One look at the collection,

132。

Ji Zhuo nodded with satisfaction.

"Steady."

Isn't this more stable!

"Get up!"

"Let's go!"

The beautiful new book data has made a good start to Ji Zhuo's new day,

That's a good sign!

Ji Zhuo got up from the bed with high morale, washed, sat down in front of the electricity, and began to code.
