Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature
Chapter 298 Leading the way
Chapter 298 Leading the way
The plot of “War of Liches” that appeared in the book soon caught Nicholas Tse’s attention. He liked Zhongyuan Yidianhui’s novels, not only because Zhongyuan Yidianhui’s novels were very famous, but also because he heard that Zhongyuan Yidianhui and he were born in the same year.
As a person of the same age, he was surprised that Zhongyuan Yidianhui could become so famous and make so much money just by writing.
The first work he watched by Zhongyuan Yidianhui was “Shenmu”.
That book overturned his understanding of novels.
Before reading “God’s Tomb”, the impression he had of novels was either world classics or martial arts novels like those written by Jin Yong, Gu Long and Huang Yi.
The writing is very serious.
But the writing style and language of “God’s Tomb” written by Zhongyuan Yidianhui are so lifelike.
The key is that every chapter is great.
Unlike famous novels and martial arts novels, the plot is always full of ups and downs. Not only may the heroine lose her virginity at any time, but the hero may also be tortured to death by his enemies. Every character in the book has no sense of security.
“God’s Tomb” is different. No matter how powerful the enemy is, he will be defeated by the hero.
The hero and heroine seem to encounter danger frequently, but they are always safe and sound, and they are always able to turn danger into opportunities for themselves.
It’s so cool.
Moreover, he was dumbfounded by how fast the plot of “God’s Tomb” progressed.
There are hundreds of thousands of words in the plot, but less than a month has passed in the book.
Other people are in no hurry to cultivate immortality and may spend ten or twenty years in seclusion to meditate. However, the male protagonist seems to be in a hurry to be reincarnated. He may be in one state in the morning and in another state in the afternoon.
The woman who looked down on him yesterday may be out of his league tomorrow.
It’s really frustrating.
That feeling reminded him of Jin Yong’s “The Smiling, Proud Wanderer”.
He remembered the hero Gou Zazhong in “Xia Ke Xing”. What a bastard! He broke the mentality of many masters in the book.
And today, the plot of “Warcraft” gave Nicholas Tse another feeling – looking up.
Suddenly I felt that my cultural level was too low.
Zhong Yuan Yi Dian Hui, who is of the same age as him, can actually write such a wonderful movie world, but Nicholas Tse only has a vague understanding of many of the characters and events in it.
He suddenly felt that he should cherish his work in the entertainment industry. If he quit the industry and went to compete in other industries with his peers like Zhongyuan Yidianhui, he would probably have no hope of making a name for himself in his life.
……
Same night.
It’s the same Hong Kong.
Guo Jingfeng, who regards Zhongyuan Yidianhui as his idol and has been in the writing industry for some time, is also watching the ending plot of “The Mysterious Tower of Heaven and Earth”.
As an author, his perspective on this book is different from that of Nicholas Tse and others.
He not only appreciates the plot in the book, but also expands his own thinking, thinking about such a story, if he were to write it himself, from what angle would he write it? What plots could he write?
The witch tribe, the demon tribe…
After reading the last three episodes, Guo Jingfeng put down the book and frowned in thought.
He recently finished the work he was working on and has been thinking about what to write next these days.
Today I bought the last three volumes of Linglong Tower, both to relax and to get some inspiration from my idol’s book.
At this moment, he felt that he had a lot of inspiration in his mind.
I really want to write a work about the period of the ancient war between wizards and liches.
He was still not satisfied with the plot of “War of Liches and Wizards” written by Cao Sheng, and wanted to write a novel. So he used “War of Liches and Wizards” as the story framework and wrote a novel of the same type.
He believes that there must be many readers who, like him, have not seen enough of the book.
With such a wonderful story and subject matter, many people will probably like to read it.
The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes.
After a moment, he came to the computer, created a new document on the computer, and named the document: “War of the Liches”.
In terms of the title of the book, it can take advantage of the popularity of “Warcraft and the Lich King”.
Guo Jingfeng, who grew up in Hong Kong, thinks that riding on the popularity of others is normal and worthwhile.
The movie that impressed him most was “God of Gamblers”.
The year before, Wang Jing’s “God of Gamblers” took in more than 3600 million at the box office, becoming the annual box office champion. The following year, the follow-up “The Saint of Gamblers” starring Stephen Chow took in more than million at the box office. The box office of the follow-up work even surpassed the original.
It shocked countless people.
This incident made Guo Jingfeng feel that following the trend was a good idea and had great potential.
And tonight, he plans to follow the trend of his idol’s “War of the Liches” and write a book called “War of the Liches”.
While I was conceiving this novel, I couldn’t help but fantasize: Zhongyuan Yidianhui hasn’t written a novel about the Lich War period. If I write one before him, I might be able to take over the popularity of this subject.
This might become my masterpiece.
For this reason, he decided to change his pen name.
I want to give the outside world a feeling of coming out of nowhere.
Readers think that he is also a talented author like Zhongyuan Yidianhui, who can write popular works as soon as he debuts.
After thinking for a while, he wrote down his new pen name on the document: Meeting at the Peak
The word “Feng” in this pen name is taken from his real name.
Meeting at the pinnacle… He hopes that he can become a top author in the industry with this book “War of Liches”, and one day he can appear in front of his idol Cao Sheng as an equal.
At this moment, meeting at the peak became his goal.
……
A week later.
The simplified Chinese version of the new book “The Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth” has been officially launched in mainland China.
Tens of thousands of book fans responded by hearing the news.
They went to bookstores of all sizes to buy it.
Many of them are colleagues or editors in the industry.
For them, Zhongyuan Yidianhui’s works are benchmarks in the industry and they need to learn from them.
If you don’t watch the works of Zhongyuan Yidianhui, you will easily fall behind the trend of the industry. Just like when the movies of masters such as Cameron and Spielberg are released, practitioners in the film industry will take time out to appreciate and learn.
If filmmakers do not study the works of top masters, they will not be able to keep up with the times and will not know to what extent the most advanced film technology of this era has developed.
It is easy to become a loser who is ignorant of the immensity of the world.
To this day, the five words “Zhongyuan Yidianhui” have long been the beacon and weather vane of the entire industry in the eyes of many online literature practitioners.
What’s more, Zhongyuan Yidianhui’s works can indeed teach them a lot.
For example: Where are you now?
His “The Legend of Sun Wukong” is already very popular.
The reputation is also very good.
But today, when “The Linglong Tower of Heaven and Earth” was released, he went out and bought two copies.
As soon as I came back, I couldn’t wait to curl up on the sofa, open the book and start reading.
He has recently seen a lot of positive reviews on the book review section of “Linglong Tower” about the wonderful ending of Linglong Tower.
Those book fans who have read the traditional Chinese version praised the book without reservation in the book review section. Those who don’t know would think that the book was written by them.
Is the plot of “Warcraft: Lich King” really that good?
Jin Hezai read on bit by bit with a desire to verify the facts.
When I first watched it, he would occasionally pick up some snacks from the snack bag next to him and put them into his mouth to chew.
Gradually, he forgot about snacks.
His eyes were fixed on the plot in the book.
He is still writing “The Legend of Sun Wukong”.
Write very slowly.
Because he needs to check various information while writing.
You also need to combine the various information you find with the story you write.
His requirements for the quality of his works are higher than the speed of creation.
He wanted to write this book well, a masterpiece that would always have a good reputation.
But, looking up information is really tiring.
First of all, you need to think about what kind of information to look for.
Secondly, you need to select the correct and useful information from the various messy information you find.
Finally, you need to organically combine the information you find with the plot of your own work.
If the sales of this book had not been rising steadily and its reputation had not been good, he would probably have stopped writing long ago.
However, the movie world of “Warcraft and the Lich King” written by Cao Sheng presented a lot of information that he had not found or even thought of before.
Jin Hezai thinks that the timeline of “War of the Lich King” must be before “The Legend of Wukong”.
However, the various characters and events in “Wulin Wars” can affect “The Legend of Wukong”.
As he watched, he couldn’t help but get up and go to the study, take out a notebook and a ballpoint pen, and while watching the plot of “Warcraft: Legend of Mir 2”, he took notes in the notebook from time to time.
He recorded all the information he thought would be useful for his writing of “The Legend of Sun Wukong”.
……
Magic City.
Starting point headquarters.
Today, several editors bought the latest “The Linglong Tower of Heaven and Earth”, and Wang Shou was one of them.
He is not only the editor of Qidian.
He is also an online writer.
The works I have written have also been published in Taiwan.
But the sales were average. The key point was that after publishing one work, the three beginnings he created in succession failed to pass the publishing review of the publishing house.
If it can’t be published, he won’t earn any royalties.
If he can’t earn royalties, he has no future.
Because of this, the girlfriend he had finally gotten in college broke up with him and left him.
Just when his self-confidence was severely undermined, he felt very confused about his future and didn’t know what to do next.
One day when he was browsing the Internet, he saw that Qidian was recruiting editors-in-chief.
One of the recruitment requirements states: Authors with creative experience and achievements will be given priority.
At that moment, he felt something in his heart and thought that he seemed to meet the requirements.
With a give it a try attitude, he sent an electronic resume to the email address left in the Qidian recruitment announcement.
In the end, he was actually hired.
After coming to work at Qidian, he still likes to read books in his spare time. Occasionally, he would try to write an introduction and submit it to a publishing house in Taiwan.
I thought that if my submission was successful, I could work during the day and write novels at night, thus having two incomes.
It’s hard not to get rich.
Unfortunately, the several introductions he wrote failed to pass the review of Taiwan Publishing House.
At noon today, he took advantage of his lunch break to open his newly bought “The Linglong Tower of Heaven and Earth”. After seeing the plot of “War of Liches and Sorcery”, the inspiration in his mind was immediately stimulated.
I have a strong desire to create.
The plot of “Warcraft and the Lich King” made him see a completely new subject matter.
A subject that he considered very promising.
That night.
He returned to his residence, picked up a pen and wrote a title on the draft paper: “Donghuang Taiyi”
