I'm bored, I read a lot of books, comments are flying, and trolls are soaring. This is the current state of web novels.

About when the group of trolls became popular,There is no evidence,In fact, most readers who read online novels are to pass the time with a casual attitude,Many people are used to looking for their favorite works,And then chase after it,Of course you don't like it,Or the original favorite works have happened to the situation that doesn't meet the taste,It's just a simple don't read it.,After all, this network is huge.,There are so many novels.,I'm afraid I can't find a good book to read?,This is the habit of most readers.。

However, there are also some boring readers who are idle, they don't pay attention to others, they only care about the shortcomings of each book, bugs, some of the author's views that do not meet their views, and even so strict that occasionally there is a typo to spray two sentences, in short, anything that does not conform to their own opinions, immediately post cynicism, do everything to hit the writer, and the extreme is seriously hostile to a certain writer, no matter what he writes, no matter what he squirts. This has to be said to be a very strange thing. At least many sane people think it's strange, is there really a flawless masterpiece?

Writers have said that writing a book is not easy. Readers are shouting that it is really difficult to find books. Each has its own difficulties, it doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, the following words and opinions are purely personal opinions, and have nothing to do with any real person, time, place, event, if there is a coincidence, it is purely the same. Trolls saliva to find Brother Chun, vest to find ballast to find Brother Zeng, Xiexie cooperation.

The first tragedy of online writers:

Huang Rong or Guo Jing?!

Of course, if you don't even know who Huang Rong and Guo Jing are, then please click on the X on the top right so as not to pollute your eyes.

All writers who write online YY novels have this experience, whether it is better to write the protagonist smarter, or stupider? This is a big question. There's no way, Huang Rong and Guo Jing, they can't mix, they can't mix, they can barely say that they can mix, so they can only pull out the protagonist who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger. Of course, this kind of protagonist is very distinctive when written, but it is obvious that this kind of protagonist is not so easy to write, and many times he still unconsciously walks into the dilemma of Huang Rong or Guo Jing.

If you want to write the protagonist smarter (the protagonist's IQ +100), readers are dissatisfied, are you mistaken, what era is it, or is the old-fashioned protagonist halo and brain halo superimposed, the protagonist has brains, and everyone else is all idiots? Can you write novels? You haven't graduated from elementary school, right? The protagonist beckons casually, and those beauties are and die, are they still human? You can't do this without brains, right? No one else can see such a simple strategy? Do you think you are Chu X? Except for the protagonist, everyone else is mortal wisdom?

The protagonist is smart, of course, other characters are stupid, this is a very simple comparison, but it's hard to grasp this degree, not that the writer's writing is difficult to master, but the reader's taste is difficult to master, because the same thing, different people have different opinions, some readers think it's just right, but there are also people who read it and think that it's a shame that others can't see such a simple thing, so they sprayed:" You write a P.,Is it an insult to the reader's IQ?,Such a simple thing can be seen by everyone.,Except for the protagonist, no one else can see it.,Your brain-dead aura is level 100 or level 1000?"

Hey,Then it's better to write the protagonist stupidly.,Well,That's more room for growth.,After all, people.,It's slowly maturing.,Well, this idea is good.,The writers who have been hit have begun to change the protagonist's IQ.。 (Protagonist IQ -100)

"Damn! The protagonist you wrote is a pig.,So stupid.,I don't know anything and I can still mix in XXshijie.,Is it good to use a little brain.,Such a person must die in that kind of shijie.,And it's inexplicably dead.,Sold and helped people count the pig.,Author, you have a sick brain.,Can this kind of person be the protagonist?"

"That's it.,It's not popular to abuse the main text now.,Author, wash and sleep.,Write a novel of P.,MB is still so stupid after it's crossed.,Wear a hair.,Surrounded by human spirits.,How do you let this protagonist mix?,You can't live as a beggar.。 ”

Hawkers,It's become an abuser.,Writers are confused.,This,It's not good to be smart.,It's not okay to be stupid.,Then I'm writing to the level of ordinary people.,It's always okay, right?" (The protagonist's IQ is fluctuating between -1 and +1)

Damn, ordinary people? Who still looks at the protagonists of ordinary people these days.

Well, you are traveling through the text, then he has more than thousands of years of knowledge in this era, everything is one step ahead of others, first accept Zhao Yun, then recruit Zhuge , and then make a stirrup, make a glass, and make a perfume.

What?The fantasy background of the crossing.,That's simpler.,Just kidding.,Find a big nobleman for the protagonist to possess him.,Either be taken by the Sword Saint Magister as a closed disciple.,Practice martial arts to become a Sword Saint at the age of ten.,Eleven-year-old is a Magister.,Demon and martial arts are the king.。

Game competition,That's not even an ordinary person.,Give the protagonist an ancient martial arts kid.,The initial value in the game is full.,Level 1 people are more awesome than others at level 100.,Fight the treasure girl to build a gang.,That's why someone sees it.。 Playing football and basketball is not the same, you practice the deadly mandarin duck legs, Ronaldo is a P, and then practice a gossip dragon palm, O'Neill is also lying on his stomach.

Oh, the city, that's a better arrangement, at least the protagonist is also a child of a family, not a descendant or an illegitimate child, or a special forces Zhongnanhai bodyguard re-employed, you write ordinary people? Who reads? Even if you write vernacular novels, the protagonist should also graduate from an agricultural university, so that you have capital, hey, it seems that you are not suitable for writing online novels, wash and sleep, don't eat this line of food. ”

So,The writers are discouraged and don't try anymore.,Hey,These days,What kind of protagonist to write is not pleased.,Forget it.,Who do you love?,We don't look at the comments to see the subscription (from the famous sentence of not looking at the advertisement to see the efficacy),Write it according to your own ideas.,If you read the comments and the psychological quality is a little worse, you don't dare to touch the keyboard from now on.。

the second greatest tragedy of online writers;

Subject matter, plagiarism and borrowing.

The subject matter is the top priority that plagues every online writer, and now the classification of online novels can be said to be full of flowers, the traditional martial arts theme involving death, and the cutting-edge Lily BL. As for the ubiquitous rebirth of time-traveling, fantasy fairytales, cultivation alchemists, ancient martial arts mechas, mutation and biochemistry, game domination, and competitive dominance are countless, and there are also female frequency romances, super-unpopular supernatural gods and monsters, etc.

It is said that there are really many types, so many that I can't list them all, but no writer dares to say that this theme I think will be popular, and no writer dares to say that this theme is definitely my original. I know that there must be people who want to spray this statement, to despise it, to have different opinions, hehe, it doesn't matter, if you have the patience to read the following content, you can understand.

I remember watching "Fengzi Story" at the earliest, and there were few trolls spraying it as a game fan, and there were even few class leaders who said that it plagiarized game ideas. When I first watched the game masterpiece "Dream Demon King", no one said that it copied the idea of XX animation virtual helmets, and when I first watched "Legend of Rebirth", few people sprayed this kind of cross-cutting idea in games and science fiction novels. Maybe it's because everyone was more tolerant back then, or maybe there were fewer online novels back then, in short, they are often considered to be the pioneers of a certain genre, and this statement is completely true.

It's just that now, tens of thousands of online writers, millions of online novels, any type of subject matter have appeared, and criticism and ridicule are getting louder and louder, no matter which writer, whether you are a fledgling or a successful person, no matter what subject you write, there are such voices: "The idea of your book is plagiarism, XXX!"

Nowadays, the Internet resources are too abundant, novels, animations, TV movies, forums and blogs, it can be said that all kinds of strange topics have appeared, what strange ideas have emerged, and no ideas seem special. A search on Baidu, tens of thousands of connections, a little dog, thousands of pages of information. Many fans of old books understand how exciting it was to have a magical idea of rebirth back then, and now it can be said that dog blood is so common that it can't be more vulgar.

Everyone's knowledge is broader, and writers will also see these things, other people's novels, anime from other countries, foreign TV and movies, entertainment and leisure, everyone is the same. In many cases, the creativity of a book, the setting of a shijie, the shaping of a protagonist, and a line with a deep meaning may bring inspiration to writers.

With inspiration, of course, writers will express it in words, and many times the idea of a book comes from this way, and it is true that the huge information of modernization is of great help to the creative ideas of writers, but it also leads to the most critical question for readers at present: plagiarism or borrowing.

To be honest, the line between the two is really difficult to deline, the same anime, the same novel, the same movie, of course there are not a few people who have seen it, the author is also a person, and he will also watch these things, and he will also feel some emotion about the impressive content, of course, it is inevitable to learn from these when writing things.

But many people think that this is plagiarism? I once talked about this topic in a group of authors, and one author said: "Because everyone can think of these things, but to be honest, I have never seen an absolutely novel idea." Sometimes I can't help but quarrel with those trolls in the comments, and the old TM says that others have plagiarized, but you have come up with an absolutely original idea, okay, to see if you can become a god?"

It's a very simple example, such as writing a superpower, many people know what types of this thing are, some prefer stealth space transfer, some prefer gravity control telekinesis, in short, any type of superpower you can think of, has appeared in other media content, don't think I'm saying absolutely, if you come up with any super novel ideas and think you are original, I can tell you with a pity, it's not that you have a smart brain, but that you have little knowledge.

According to the strict plagiarism theory, any online writer should not write a book about superpowers, because there is absolutely nothing original about this thing.

In the same way, what kind of fantasy and magic martial arts are almost the same. If you want to tie the relationship, the idea of any book will be related to the book you want to tie up, which is a subjective problem.

Of course, there are many books that do involve large-scale plagiarism, such as changing the name of a book, and the content and plot are roughly the same. But after all, this is a minority, people who do this kind of thing are very stupid, people with a little writing skills will not do this kind of thing, maybe everyone is almost the same, but what two different authors write is basically not the same.

In fact, there is no point in entangling this problem, if the creative problem can really be so easy to appear in a hundred flowers of super novel themes, it is not called creativity, many particularly novel ideas are actually unpopular and are covered up in the trend, this kind of thing is very common, too novel themes are actually equal to super unpopular themes, is it that Internet writers are all rich and specialized in writing things to satisfy themselves, even if there are such people, no one has written for a long time, and there are a few left to continue to write.

Anyone who has written a book or two at the beginning knows that this thing can't be explained at all, so why bother reading online novels when it's so serious?

The third tragedy of the starting point writer: make up the word count or write the details?

This question is also a typical example of daily life by trolls, and I believe you have seen a lot of this kind of controversy.

Generally speaking, the minimum requirement for a starting point contract novel is 800,000 words, that is, this is the basic limit of the number of long words, of course, most of the more popular novels are far beyond this number, four or five million or even more than the number of super long novels, and there are not a few books that have been written for several years.

There are so many words of fiction, two or three million at every turn, what writer can guarantee that the plots in this are closely connected?

The most important point of the online novel at the starting point is that it is continuously updated, that is, there must be at least 3,000 words a day. However, in reality, most writers have more than this number of daily updates. There has been a statistic that 6,000 words a day, and at least 5,000 words are needed to meet the reader's reading expectations.

In the same way, for most authors, five or six thousand words a day can barely keep their income to support themselves. Maybe when I say this, many people scoff, you are less here, who doesn't know that Internet writers earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, so they can't support themselves? Who are you bluffing?

Yes, many great gods and quasi-gods have a good monthly manuscript fee, and if there is a physical book published, the income will be more. However, like all workers, online writers are of course hierarchical, and the pyramid theory can be basically true in any field. Of course, the god with a monthly income of tens of thousands is at the top, brilliant and dazzling, even if the middle and upper class writers have a monthly income of more than 5,000, which is a good income at present.

However, the middle and lower class are the status quo of starting point writers, especially the first signed book, which is basically a sluggish subscription, and most middle and lower class writers are relying on full-time attendance bonuses to keep themselves fed. It's not for nothing that there are writers who have risen to fame in one fell swoop, but there are very few. And the middle and upper class writers of weishenme have a higher income? That's also in exchange for a large number of updates, and tens of thousands of people can subscribe to tens of thousands of words when they write 3,000 words a day, after all, it's just a few.

So a writer should write at least 5,000 words a day. Maybe you don't think there's anything great about this, it's just 5,000 words, what's so difficult? Yes, 5,000 a day is really not difficult, but the difficulty is that it lasts steadily and lasts at this level for 365 days a year.

Any writer has a downturn, for example, when a plot is about to end, and when a new story is changed, new characters and new content need to appear, which depends on the brain, so sometimes it is not uncommon to not be able to write a word in a day or two. Experienced writers will save more manuscripts when they are in the state haode, just in case, but most writers write on the same day and send them on the same day, and the state is good and will continue to update the monthly ticket or something.

With so many words, it is inevitable that there will be some unnecessary plots, some because of conceptual mistakes, some because of the failure of a character to be strongly protested by readers and have to drastically change the original outline, and some are a large number of single plots piled up to cause reading fatigue, such as continuous battle plots and so on.

In short, the so-called word count, to be honest, does exist more or less, some writers are accustomed to writing details or describing battles or dialogues in detail, and some have to prolong certain plots because of various reasons that make it difficult to sustain the length.

In fact, it is difficult to distinguish between the number of words and the details of writing. There was once an author who replied to a troll who sprayed him to make up the number of words in the comment area: "I understand, what you really want to read is not a book, but a concise outline, such as: The male protagonist A met the enemy A, defeated the enemy A, met the enemy B, defeated the enemy B, and so on, until the enemy BOSS was met and the enemy BOSS was defeated." Actually, you're looking for a book like this, right? It's less than 100 words, so it's not a word count, is it?"

Many writers have experience, in fact, it is the best to write, and readers love to read the most, but they think that those plots that make up the number of words, that is, the plot of battle and cultivation, this thing is easy to inject water, for example, the momentum of the two sides can describe thousands of words, put a big move can write a chapter, and add a memory of tens of thousands of words can be easily released. Cultivation is the same, upgrading a level can describe tens of thousands of words, what is the upgrade system, cultivation theory, cultivation process, mental activities, and so on.

To be honest, many writers are reluctant to write this, because they also watched these big things back then, and they have long been tired of it. But it can't be helped, readers like to watch battle upgrades, don't like to read dialogue descriptions, like to watch bed scenes harem, don't like to read subtle pure love, online novels are like this, to put it bluntly, it's a commodity, of course, the writer has to follow the rules, except for some special gods, who rushes to do it with readers, and writes about what readers don't like to see?

Even if it describes an ordinary plot, there will definitely be many characters in a book, and some character writers like it themselves, and they will describe it more, but not all readers like it, so different voices come out: "Why do you keep writing about this person, hurry up and let him get the lunch box and leave, it's annoying." ”

Or a female character, some people like it and some people hate it, turnip greens have their own love, this is normal, but sometimes there are radical readers who protest that this woman is not pleasing to the eye, such as too vase, the character is not to their own taste, and it is strongly recommended that the author reduce her length or simply let her quit. And some of the supporting roles are unexpectedly very popular with readers, and it is highly recommended to increase her length, which makes the author who has no relevant ideas in advance a little headache.

Online novels are very interactive, and sometimes readers will affect the author's writing direction to varying degrees, which is both a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that maybe it may really help the work, and the bad thing is that it is likely to cause the plot to be not tight, and there is a so-called word count, that is, a certain character who has spent a lot of space to describe in the early stage, and you can't see it at all in the later stage, and then you may be turned over the old account: "What you wrote, you were cheating money in front of you, and you spent so many words writing about that person, and now the shadow is gone." ”

This situation is very common even in the books of the great gods, for the same reason. Some of my writer friends complained: "Some readers nowadays are really demanding, can that novel guarantee that not a single word can be deleted? Is there really that kind of masterpiece that has no water, every word is evocative, every character is real and touching, every story is wonderful, absolutely incisive? I am afraid that only professional papers can satisfy their appetites." ”
