I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

In fact, I wanted to talk about this single chapter a few days ago. But the reason I haven’t posted it yet is because I mentioned something about the male and female protagonists at the end of the chapter. Many readers who had never seen the comments left messages of encouragement, so I didn’t post them. But I saw a comment today, and I felt so moved that I just chatted with everyone.

In fact, there are only a few points to say.

The first is that there are too many scenes between the male and female protagonists. What I want to say is that my entry point is the Olympic Games, and during the Olympic Games, there are really not many film sessions to write about. Just two, one "Golden Armor" and the other... well, you can take a guess.

As for the plot design of this book about the Olympic Games, I actually came up with it by watching documentaries over and over again. In my setting, the proportion of the 2006 Olympic Games is actually not too big, the focus is on 2007 and 2008. Or to be precise, it was March 2007 in the real timeline, after the creative team overturned the creative plan with the four major inventions as the core structure.

It was there that the whole Olympic drama began to take hold.

The Olympics is a big plot, and it is also the most important tone of my book. The subsequent plot developments are actually an extension of this. So it must be quite long.

So the question is, what should I do if the article is too long? It's very simple, branch plot + male and female protagonist plot.

I am a single female protagonist... Many people actually don't understand or understand... I actually started out as a harem stud. But after writing tens of thousands of books, I especially wanted to write a book with a single female protagonist. As the introduction says, if you want to be a light to illuminate others, you must first be clean and pure.

Therefore, in the setting, the ratio of male and female protagonists in this book will definitely be higher, because I cannot have as many branching plots with multiple female protagonists in this book as in other books.

That's why it looks so "sweet".

Because I must use a rich heroine image to support the subsequent plot of my book. And if the image of the heroine is not plump enough, it will become the normal "open the movie - high box office - accept the girl - open the movie - high box office"...or to put it more bluntly, "shocked--" Shocked—still fucking shocked” kind of plot.

Therefore, I would rather spend more space to describe some... things that seem to have nothing to do with the theme. But in fact, I have carefully set up these things. For example, when I learned first aid in Hengdian, I used this kind of method when I went to Baihe...a series of small lines that have to be spread out in front to be harvested in the back.

In 2006, it was actually the "sweetness" of the male and female protagonists that ran through it.

What else can we do? filming? You said that the interests of the motherland are above all else, but then you went to make a movie?

Funny?

How about focusing on the Olympics? Whether it's a dream or a rebirth routine, how about watching the Olympic Games all by yourself? Then why do we need other supporting characters... The protagonist can play by himself.

The essence of entertainment writing is actually invincible writing. As for all entertainment articles, the first 300,000 to 500,000 words are actually the most important. Because this is to determine the protagonist’s character, the introduction of important supporting characters, the heroine’s personality, etc.

Of course, I can be original. But before I started this book, I had a conversation with the editor, and I asked if it would be okay to create my own characters... The editor simply said no, saying no... He suggested that I, a newcomer to Qidian, start from this kind of "fandom".

Then I'll just be obedient and that'll be it. This is also the reason why I write about fan entertainment.

So, what I want to say is, I know what people want to see, and I'm not saying the plot remains the same. I write every chapter with all my heart, whether it’s the interaction between men and women or the plot. Not water and no water. I have my rhythm, my outline, and I'm a storyteller.

Maybe my pace is slow, but at least... I really carve out every plot carefully.

I have my own settings for when to write, how to advance the time, and how to advance the plot. Please rest assured.

Secondly, I just want to talk about the reason why I wrote this single chapter today. A reader just left a message. It probably means that I am bragging about the role of Shui Zhu Wushuang, and that the character of Zhu Wushuang must be so deep. , why is it not popular or something...

I understand what he means, but allow me to give my own reasons.

First of all, as I said in the book, for actors, some roles are hard to come by. It's the kind of golden wind and jade dew that when they meet, it's like firewood and fire, and the old trees bloom vigorously in one fell swoop.

This role may not be very important, but it must be suitable for the actor himself.

There are actually many specific examples to give. Let me just mention one...the origin of the line "I have to add more money".

Is it enough?

Yes, the most popular thing about "Wulin Gaiden" is the protagonist group. But at least for me, in terms of the artistic depth of my book, the character Zhu Wushuang is the most worthy of exploration. I have already explained the specific reasons in the chapter, so I won’t go into details again.

And what I want to express is that when Xu Xin is invincible, Yang Mi also needs some original intention to change her destiny.

As I said before, I am a reasonable person. He told everyone rashly: Ah, Yang Mi is talented. If she polishes her acting skills well, she will be invincible... What are you doing? How about playing? Antecedent? as a result of? What caused this change? What kind of mental journey did you go through? Have you explained it clearly to the readers? If I don't explain it clearly, then I, as the author, am fooling myself, and that means I am incompetent.

Therefore, "Golden Armor" was introduced by the master, but how to practice next, doesn't it need to be described?

Secondly, regarding the character of Zhu Wushuang... I actually resonate with him.

Why do you want to write about her in particular? Don’t you write to Yang Mi and Guo Furong? First, I think "Wulin Gaiden", like all sitcoms, is particularly easy to stereotype an actor. Before the character "Su Mingyu" appeared...or even now, when many people mentioned her, who had the deepest impression on her? Still Guo Furong.

And this impression... will basically stay with her for a lifetime and will be difficult to eradicate.

This is not the plot I want, and I don’t want my heroine to be stuck in this role. So from the beginning, I never thought that she would play Guo Furong.

Secondly, why does it have to be Zhu Wushuang?

It's very simple. I dedicate this plot to my wife.

Regular readers know that my wife was adopted. The second eldest child in the family, her brother beat her since childhood and her sister looked down on her. And the reason why it was very simple to adopt her was that before the third child came out, her parents thought they would never have a child, so they brought her back. As a result, the biological child of the third child appeared, and the adopted second child was... one can imagine, right.

She dropped out of school at the age of 14 and moved to Zhengzhou from her hometown to start a street stall. I don't want to repeat the hardships she has endured and the sins she has endured. But if you come to the book club and see the story picture in the group photo album, you can actually understand what kind of family environment my wife and I are in.

All I can say is that the only person my daughter-in-law could cry after watching Wulin Gaiden is Zhu Wushuang.

Because they are both the same.

No home.

only myself.

She would be called a "bastard" by her parents, and when she fought with her brother, she would be choked by her brother, and when she breathed and turned to her parents, she would get a cold eye roll. After being kicked out of home at the age of 14, while running a street vendor, her biggest dream was to never become like her parents when she got married...

very many. A girl who was originally adopted. When asked about her biological parents when she was young, she would always get the reason "your mother is a young lady and she had you with an old man" from others... I don't know how to empathize with her pain. But according to her...she understands the mentality of an orphan like Zhu Wushuang very well.

Whoever gives me the stutter and lets me live, I can follow.

Really, it's that simple and pure.

But when I saw her secretly crying while watching Zhu Wushuang in Wulin Gaiden, I gradually came up with the idea for this plot.

This idea has been with me for a few years, but the previous books... didn't use it properly, so it has been put away until now.

Therefore, in this plot, I actually just hope to use words to express a feeling of distress that I don’t know how to describe to my wife, and to allow Yang Mi to get on the ship of "Wulin Gaiden".

Yang Mi cannot be trapped in this drama, and similarly, I also use this plot to remind myself to be a good husband.

It's that simple.

And what I said is not to express how much I love my family or to win the sympathy of everyone.

The reason why I am posting this single chapter today is just to tell you why this book has 500,000 to 600,000 words and not a single movie has been made. That’s all.

I know that my way of writing may have a gap in expectations from readers who initially expected to watch the Olympics and the main character in a movie.

But what I want to say more is that I will work conscientiously and down-to-earth to bring you an unconventional book. When I think about it after dinner, I still think, "Ah, there was an old dog who wrote a book with this kind of plot."

That's all.

It’s 2:10 in the morning, so much to say.

Thank you everyone for your persistence all the way.

Those who scold me and those who praise me are readers who support me.

Picking up the bowl of porridge and putting down the chopsticks, I remember your kindness.

My ability is generally limited, but my father-in-law can tolerate me and prevent me from doing evil in the world.

Write books in a down-to-earth manner, be a down-to-earth person, do not ghostwrite, do not write superficial essays, and take every story and character in the book seriously.

This is the promise I can give.

Thank you all for your tolerance, advice, suggestions and care.

The old dog paused.

bow.

Thanks.

Oh yes, as usual... an update of 14,000 words, plus a single chapter of 3,000 words, rounded up to 20,000 words, please give me a monthly vote...
