The rest is just noise

This book has refreshed my personal best results many times. I have also posted many chapters in the past to thank book friends, so in the penultimate chapter of this book, I do not plan to spend too much space on it.

Thank you, but at the end, you still have to enter the "Thank everyone" section as a matter of routine.

Now is the story time.

Cough, clear your throat, have I ever told you the origin story of how I created this book? (Auerbach tone)

The idea of ​​writing a basketball novel with the background of the beginning of the 1980s came up very early. At that time, the two reasons that pushed me to come up with this idea were that there were almost no basketball articles written about this time period in Qidian. My interest in the history of the NBA

I have a little understanding. But the real stage of practical operation is when serialization (you should be like a brave man crossing the mountains).

Wei Xia's Golden Finger that traveled through the past in his dream was my attempt at medieval basketball, but the results were unsatisfactory. Book friends generally didn't like plots about traveling through the past at that time, which poured cold water on me - so I wrote about the 1980s.

What is a basketball article about starting in the 1980s but not seeking death? You know, although this is the most difficult road, I still have to put my talent into the basketball article about the beginning of the 1980s...

In the middle and later stages of the series "Crossing the Mountain", I began to prepare for the noise, including but not limited to purchasing a large number of English e-books on basketball and NBA biographies, translating through Youdao Daxian, lurking in foreign fan forums, translating through Youdao and Baidu,

Communicate with them using Google Translate, look up old newspapers, and break through the historical fog - what fog? You probably know what happened, but these things are told to you by the people who write about the game in a story-telling way, and the newspapers will seriously state the entire story.

Fact - After finishing the book, I prepared for nearly a month before publishing it, but in real terms, the preparation time for this book was nearly half a year.

In the end, it reached a result that I had never dared to imagine - an average of 4,000 orders.

Then, let's talk about Jordan.

I am still a fan of Jordan, but I have passed the fanatical stage. I said at the beginning that I liked Jordan at first because he was the strongest, but as I read more and more books, I lost my understanding of NBA history.

It has also entered a new stage. I found that Jordan is the kind of person who is difficult for me to like. My feelings for him have changed from pure liking and admiration to inseparable love and hate. In the book, he is a hater and a fan.

I think this is good. In this way, the Jordan I write will no longer have a fan filter, and there is no burden to be black.

Finally, let’s talk about the new book.

Now I am facing a very rare situation - I have finished writing the novel, but have no clue about the new book. Generally speaking, when I finish writing a book, I already have an idea of ​​what I want to write in the next book. However,

Not now. I don’t think about the new book at all, I just want to watch the movie...

So I think it’s better to take a break, it won’t be very long, three months. I’ll take a month’s rest first, then another month to prepare the new book, and the last month I’ll try to save the manuscript. I’ll post it here again when the book is published.

A single chapter.

And then let's get into thanking everyone.

What I need to thank most is the brothers on the review team. They have improved the enjoyment of this book by at least 30% and made many useful suggestions in the past two years. I have a deep impression that during the 1985 draft,

My original way of writing it was that Louis took the initiative not to select Karl Malone instead of being cut off by the Jazz. But some people thought that giving up voluntarily would cause controversy. I thought it was very reasonable, so I revised it urgently. Another time I had a brain convulsion and wrote about the Knicks.

The team had sex in the bar, which was at risk of blowing up the book, but they were caught in time... there are countless others.

They spent their spare time selflessly for two years, sacrificing their reading experience and fun of reading, and turned the noise into a better book. So I think it’s not just me, but book friends should also

Thank them.

Thanks to my operations department and the group management of the three book club groups for their hard work over the past two years.

Thanks to my 29 allies, 1,000 rudders and above, and 160,000 book friends who have purchased this book.

Thanks to my three editors - it's funny to say that I passively changed editors twice during the Noise serialization. I wish the current editor Da Da (Kaguya) a prosperous career.

Now, let me write a book of several hundred words: Noise has caused me to develop many bad habits, the worst of which is taking 3 days off every month - why do I take 3 days off every month? Because

According to Qidian’s leave system, you can theoretically take up to 5 days of leave, but my points only allow me to take 4 days of leave each month. I usually don’t take 4 days of leave because the fourth day costs too many points. It’s really hard to take leave.

There is inertia, and this kind of inertia was not experienced in the first year of my serialization of Noise, or even in the previous four years of my coding career. I can count on one hand the number of leaves I took in the first four years, but now I am still in trouble.

I'm sorry for the book friends (嘤嘤嘤). The second thing is that it's not a bad habit for me, but it's very bad for you. The third-shift beast has degenerated into a second-shift beast.

I don’t think I can ever go back to the third watch period. Because of the occupational diseases in my back, arms and wrists, the second watch has indeed greatly relieved my stress. But this is also the reason why I feel guilty, even if I take three days off every month.

, update La Kua, book friends still vote for me at least 7,000 monthly votes every month, especially last month, the monthly votes even exceeded 10,000 (the last time we exceeded 10,000, we won the first place in the sports area for single-month monthly votes)

.As a frivolous author on the surface but extremely vain in the background, I care about the various rankings in the sports area as much as anyone else. Almost every sports article with outstanding results has monthly ticket sales data a few months before it is completed.

There will be a big decline, just like the author's creative state.

If the author slumps, so will the book lovers.

But this didn't happen to me. I was no longer depressed, I was buried. But you still tried to wake me up with monthly tickets. Really... I cried to death...

You are the best book friends in the sports area. I will not accept refutation.

Above, thank you all for your support and companionship over the past two years.
