I've been holding back a lot of things in my heart lately, and I've been wanting to talk to you all.
Let’s first talk about some of the inquiries that have appeared in the book review area recently.
Some people say that I broke my promise. When I first opened the book, I promised that The Wind Rises in Dragon City would be set in Hongmen and centered around the Double Flower Red Stick and other content. But now I have obviously gone astray, and the story is still about politics and power.
Some people also say that I deliberately split one chapter into two chapters because the dual-player update has been reduced. Some people say that dual-player has led to a decline in content quality, etc. In short, there is anything.
Let me first explain all the things I have experienced recently.
The initial plan for Fengqi Longcheng was that every 100,000 words would be released on the channel.
But readers who read books on the platform should have noticed that our book, which is about one million words long, is only available on the only platform (Tomato), and the others are not currently available.
Let me first explain the importance of channels to authors. The popularity and income of a book are directly linked to channels. To put it simply, only by publishing books on all platforms can our works be seen by more people and gain popularity.
Possibility of fire.
So why do we only go to one channel?
Because in more than half a year, the content of Fengqi Longcheng has been rejected by the channel at least a dozen times!! The reason is that the content is sensitive and cannot be included!
In order to ensure that it can pass the review of the channel, while updating, I also need to modify and delete the more than 200,000 words at the beginning of the book!
If you read the book on the channel, you will find that the opening content of "The Wind Rises in Dragon City" is completely different, and there are two versions. (If you don't believe it, you can go to Tomato and read it again.)
To put it simply, in the version of the channel, there are not even words such as trade unions, people, and classes! There are countless deleted and modified contents.
Our book was originally developed around the association. You can imagine how difficult it was for me to revise it and how much work it was.
I usually code until about ten o'clock, then have a meal, and revise until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night!
Fortunately, some channels passed the security review! But the more serious problem is that almost all of my content outline needs to be revised, because I can no longer focus on describing organizations such as associations, as well as the many extended plots of the development of associations!!
This is the reason why the story centered on Hongmen was gradually downplayed, and I also began to rewrite the plot line!
A lot of core content has been cut, and it is difficult to express the ideas of some characters! For example, Wei Xiangzuo, Lu Feng, etc...
I say this, can everyone understand it?
This is also the reason why the website asked me to write science fiction and I immediately agreed.
First of all, I am interested in science fiction. Readers in the official group should also see that I have talked about this topic. I have wanted to write about it a long time ago.
Secondly, I have to write about new subjects sooner or later, so now that I have the opportunity, I will just start it.
but!!
I am a buyout author! The price of eternal life and the rise of the wind are the same. Those readers who say that I want to take advantage of both, please be kind, okay?
There is no difference between me writing a piece of eternal life and writing a chapter of The Wind Rises.
Second. Regarding the issue of updating the word count.
Let me reiterate at the end that from the time I wrote the book until now, each chapter has always been 2,000 words, and the regulations of our platform are also that it must meet the 2,000 words per chapter.
If anyone doesn't believe it, just go to the PC and look at the subscribed chapters. There is a clear word count on it!! Don't continue to lead the way in the book review area, I'm really tired.
third.
The storyline of The Wind Rises in Dragon City has been revised.
However, I can promise you readers who have been following it for nearly ten years that I will finish this book well and it will not be unfinished. Please rest assured.
Because before the scale changes, this should be my last novel of this kind. I want to complete it more than anyone else.
However, due to the revision of the story line, this book will not be as long as District 9. I estimated that the following story should have more than one million words, and the story has entered the middle stage.
Next, I will not update so frequently. The normal daily updates will not change, and the guaranteed five chapters on Monday will not change, but the high-intensity bursts will probably be gone.
Firstly, my body really can't bear it, and secondly, I have to focus on ensuring the quality of Fengqi and give an explanation to my old readers.
Impatient readers, don’t rush it, just give it a try! Just be considerate of Jie Jie, who is over thirty years old. If you are really not satisfied, then readers definitely have the right to choose.
Finally, I would like to say that starting a new subject may be a difficult road!
You might even have to start over...
But I am willing to do it again!
This is not a helpless move, because many people are still avoiding, copying, and trying every means to stick to this type of subject matter without moving.
Just like the ninth special zone was written, countless special zones were born.
