Chapter 230: Serious People
After lunch, Chen Li dragged Yan Xin to chat about the content of "Covering the Sky" for more than an hour, until Xiaoyuan came over to find Yan Xin to look at the house together, and then let him go.
And after Liang Wei finished cleaning up the dishes, she went to the study and opened the computer that Yan Xin usually used to prepare code words.
When Chen Li entered the study, he saw her staring at the computer screen in a daze, so he asked with some amusement: "How many words have you written?" ”
Liang Wei responded embarrassedly: "I haven't thought of the title of the book yet." ”
"The title of the book is not that important, if you really want to write it, you can skip the title of the book and write the beginning directly." Chen Lidao.
"I didn't think about it at the beginning." Liang Wei was even more embarrassed.
She wants to write, but she thinks that writing can shorten the distance between her and Chen Li, and she doesn't have such a story and wants to express it.
Actually, nothing.
There is no story to tell, no characters to describe, not even a paragraph of emotion to express.
Chen Li persuaded her: "You still don't want to write now, read a few books first, and then write a story." ”
Many readers read other people's books and think it's easy to write.
The writing is not bad, I know all those words, and the characters and storylines are all familiar.
It feels like I'm good at it, and I even think I'm better at writing than that stupid author.
But when I really started writing, I found that I didn't know how to begin.
Some will start by imitating others, some disdain to imitate others, write things in a mess, publish them on the website, and do not click on them, and will give birth to the idea of high and low, thinking that readers do not understand aesthetics.
Chen Li has been in the industry for so long, and he has seen a lot of such people.
He personally disapproves of Liang Wei's writing, but if she wants to try, then don't pour cold water on her, lest she become an enemy and feel that she is hindering her development.
So he still put forward his own suggestion, and hoped that she could write tens of thousands of words, knowing that this bowl of rice was not so delicious, and retreated.
Liang Wei couldn't think of any other good way, so she could only quit from the codeword page, and then log in to a station and find it in the homepage recommendation.
Chen Li looked at it and said to her:
"You have to look for the market welcome, you don't need to look at the recommendations on the homepage, those are basically for new books, and they may not really produce results. If you want to find it, you can find the top of the leaderboard, and that is the real recognition of the market. Of course, you're here for literature, so I didn't say it. ”
Liang Wei sighed and began to look for books on the rankings.
She landed on a female frequency station, found the number one from a certain list, and clicked in.
I didn't look at it right away, but went back to the bedroom and found a notebook, which I wanted to record while reading.
Chen Li thought to himself: "It's quite like that." ”
He wasn't so serious.
I didn't write it so seriously either.
I didn't bother to pay attention to it, turned on the computer, and started to snap the codeword.
"Breaking the Firmament" is now only more than 4 million words, and according to their plan, it will take seven or eight million words to complete the book, and there is still nearly half of the content to be written.
Yan Xin pinned his hopes on this book, and said to Chen Li that even if the book "Covering the Sky" is written, the income brought by it is not as good as "Breaking the Sky", and it must be taken seriously.
The benefits of this book are so great that even if you don't have the passion to create, you have to write it down.
The speed of his code words is very fast, snapping, fingers dancing, and the words are knocked out one by one.
Before he knew it, two or three hours had passed, and he had coded out tens of thousands of words.
And in this process, Liang Wei watched while taking notes in a notebook with a pen.
Chen Li finished writing three chapters, moved his already sore shoulders, and then went to see Liang Wei, the notes were made two large pages, and only read about ten chapters in one piece.
I couldn't help laughing: "You read it so carefully." ”
Liang Wei blushed: "You shouldn't look at it that way, right?" ”
"No," Chen Li said, "it's good for you to stick to it, and it won't take long for you to know how to write." ”
He didn't take a serious look at what Liang Wei wrote, but just glanced at it, and felt that he wrote it quite seriously.
With this serious energy, he felt that this person might really be able to rely on writing to eat in the future.
As for whether it can be a hit, frankly speaking, no one can guarantee it.
It's not just a matter of strength, sometimes luck is important.
But with this serious energy, if you continue, it will be absolutely no problem to eat this bowl of rice.
This made him have more respect for Liang Wei.
At the same time, I also muttered in my heart: "If you have this serious energy when you are studying, what famous university can't be admitted?" ”
- Many people are like this, they don't want to study when it's time to study, they just want to play.
After entering the society and being hammered by reality, I regretted that I didn't study seriously and missed the best time.
After that, it's much more difficult to learn something than when you're on campus.
Liang Wei is like this, and Chen Li himself is also like this.
looked at the time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, so he reminded Liang Wei: "You can put down what you have in hand in advance, it's not early, you have to prepare to buy vegetables and cook." ”
Liang Wei sighed, then remembered her identity, closed the notebook, and turned off the computer.
While doing this, he asked Chen Li: "How many people's meals do you want to prepare at night?" ”
"Wait a minute, I'll give you a call and ask."
Chen Li said, took out his mobile phone and made a call to Yan Xin: "Do you and Xiaoyuan want to come here for dinner in the evening?" ”
Yan Xin: "I'll come over later." ”
Hanging up the phone, Chen Li said to Liang Wei: "Meals for four people." ”
Liang Wei snorted and got up to go grocery shopping.
"Wait a minute." Chen Li stopped her again.
Liang Wei looked at him, not understanding why she stopped herself.
Chen Li took out a few hundred yuan from his pocket: "The money for the dishes you was given earlier should be almost used, right?" You take this, buy something delicious, and come to me when you don't have enough money. ”
Liang Wei didn't take the money and said, "There are still more than four hundred left." ”
As he spoke, he opened the notebook again and opened it for Chen Li to see:
"This is my account for buying vegetables in the past few days, and everything is recorded here, and the 1,000 yuan you gave me is still more than 400 yuan that has not been used up, and it can be used for a few days."
Chen Li was stunned for a moment, but still stuffed the hundreds of yuan in his hand to her: "Give it to you, you can take it, anyway, you still have to use it in the future." ”
Liang Wei sighed, took the money, and made another note in the notebook.
Chen Li couldn't help but smile and said, "Why do you remember this?" I can't trust you even for a few dishes. ”
Liang Wei said: "It's better to remember it, how much money was used, I can have a number in my heart." ”
Chen Li had no choice: "Then you just remember it." ”
He knew that some nannies hired by the family would embezzle money to buy groceries, but he really didn't care about the money, if Liang Wei took some money from it for his own use, he wouldn't have any opinion.
Even he hoped that Liang Wei could get more money, which could be regarded as an equivalent transaction.
On the contrary, this kind of every expense is recorded in the account, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.
After Liang Wei left, he sat on the chair and was in a daze: "This woman ...... Alas, this woman is actually quite good...... It would be nice if we met in another scene......"
