I have a fast hand and willfully save many manuscripts. Two chapters were added to "Xiao Ji" today. The release date was not yet a month old. Because it had reached 200,000 words, it disappeared from the list of new books by contracted authors.
As a result, "The God-killing Sword in the Clouds", which was originally ranked second, moved forward and took the top spot.
Many people are a little surprised by this.
Many people who are paying attention to this new book list competition are waiting to watch the show!
Let’s see if “The Sword of Gods in the Clouds” can beat “Xiao Ji”. For many readers, they don’t care about the outcome of this battle for the top spot on the new book list.
They just think it's lively and interesting. If "The Sword of God in the Clouds" can beat "Xiao Ji", it will naturally be a big hit of the year and will last for a long time.
If "The Sword of Gods in the Clouds" cannot beat "Xiao Ji", it will still be an interesting topic worth talking about.
Almost no one expected that "Xiao Ji" would avoid fighting and choose to voluntarily withdraw from the competition for the new book list.
Many people have something to say about this.
Some people say that Hongxue went to the digital station, and when he came back this time, he lost a lot of popularity. Even the newly promoted platinum salted fish like me, Sun, didn't dare to fight.
Some people say that Hongxue's move was the best choice rationally, because no matter what the outcome of the battle between his "Xiao Ji" and "The Sword of Killing Gods in the Clouds" was, it would not be of any benefit to him.
If he wins, in everyone's opinion, it is appropriate. Who is his red blood? The former No. 1 brother of Qidian. Isn't it appropriate to win against a rising star in the new book issue?
And if you lose, it will be a big loss and your godhood will be damaged.
This rhetoric is a bit like the competition between man and dog.
——When a person wins, others will say: "You are better than a dog!".
——When a person loses, others will say: "You are worse than a dog!"
Others say that Xianyu, my old man, took advantage of people's danger and behaved like a villain! He knew that the red-blooded boss's return this time would damage his popularity and was not as good as before, but he took advantage of this opportunity to step on the red-blooded man and get the upper hand.
External disturbances sometimes have a great impact on the parties concerned, and sometimes they do not.
It mainly depends on the mentality of the parties involved.
In Shanghai, I have already bought a villa here with my own royalties. I saw the author's comments on the forum. After reading it, his expression was calm and calm.
His mentality is incomparable to ordinary people.
Fans who are familiar with him all know that he once had a motto, and that motto can well reflect his mentality.
That motto is:
How should I deal with someone in this world who slanders me, bullies me, insults me, laughs at me, belittles me, despises me, hates me, or deceives me?
You just need to tolerate him, let him, let him go, avoid him, be patient with him, respect him, ignore him, stay for a few more years, and you can take a look at him.
…
This is a quotation from a Buddhist classic, a question and answer between Han Shan and Shi De.
In this passage, at first glance, the person who is answering seems a bit cowardly. After being bullied like that, he can still swallow his anger and dare not bar his teeth. But if you look carefully, you will find that the attitude of the person who is answering is actually quite good.
Wise.
Do not believe?
Just think about it: a person who likes to slander, insult, ridicule, disgust and deceive others, does his own character have problems?
And will such people always have smooth sailing and happiness?
Would such a mean person meet someone who would yell at any injustice and take action when it was time to teach him a lesson?
Such a cheap person has a bad reputation. Even if he is lucky and does not meet the kind of person who yells when he sees injustice, what can he accomplish in this life? People with obvious character flaws will not be able to do well in career or relationships.
Problems in friendships and family relationships are so normal and almost inevitable!
Therefore, when faced with such a mean person, normal people don't need to argue with him at all. Just tolerate him. In a few years, you will be pleased to find that the guy is unlucky and can no longer play the harp.
Hongxue has such a motto, which shows his mentality.
Therefore, he just smiled lightly at those mean-mouthed comments on the author forum.
I have no interest in arguing or defending at all.
Be yourself and listen less to the outside world's beeps. This is the principle he has always adhered to.
It's working great so far.
…
Over in City M, Sun Quan sighed when he found that his "Sword of Killing Gods in the Clouds" topped the new book list, and "Xiao Ji" disappeared from the new book list because the word count reached 200,000.
There was a look of regret in his eyes.
After all, I still couldn’t compete against the master I once liked so much, which was such a pity.
To be honest, before the release of "The God-killing Sword in the Clouds", he had no idea about his current popularity. He chose to release a new book at the same time as Red Blood. He just wanted to fight against Red Blood. After all, Red Blood had once
He is the top god that he needs to look up to, and he was once a red-blooded senior book fan.
It is no exaggeration to say that Red Blood was once his idol.
When he decided to publish "The God-Slaying Sword in the Clouds", he judged in his mind that his chances of winning were slim.
From the beginning, he wanted to compete with Hong Xue on the new book list, but he had no ambition to win.
But how did things evolve into this now?
"Xiao Ji" was suddenly updated, reaching 200,000 words ahead of schedule, and disappeared from the new book list.
There are a lot of discussions in the industry. Some people say that the red blood does not dare to fight. Some people say that he is taking advantage of others' danger...
In the office, in front of the computer, Sun Quan smoked two cigarettes, thought for a long time, and sighed several times.
Finally he decided to apologize to Hongxue.
It was Sun Quan's choice that caused the current situation. After this incident, in his opinion, the reputation of Red Blood will be somewhat damaged.
This was not his intention.
He felt that he needed to apologize to Hongxue and explain that it was not that he was a coward, but that his principle in life had always been: admit when you have done something wrong.
At this time, the advantages of being small in the Internet literary circle emerged. Although Sun Quan had nothing to do with Hongxue in the past, in the past two years, Hongxue was not even at the starting point, but it was still very simple for him to find the contact information of Hongxue.
I randomly found two author groups and found Hongxue’s QQ number in the member list of one of the groups.
Sun Quan smiled and clicked to add the other person as a friend.
In the identity verification information, he wrote: "I am Xianyu Laosun, and I am a fan of your books!"
It's a coincidence that Hongxue happens to be online at this time, but it's just invisible on QQ.
Hongxue was shocked when she saw such an account and added herself as a friend. Her first thought was - which reader is pretending to be this? How could I, the salty fish, Lao Sun, add me as a friend at this time? And he still claims to be a fan of my books?
But...people are always curious.
There is also red blood.
Although he was very suspicious that this account was faked by a book fan, out of curiosity, he still approved the other party's friend application.
After the friend was verified, he sent a message.
"Are you really a salty fish for me, my grandson?"
After a while, the other party replied: "Wait a moment!"
After a while, the other party sent him a screenshot of the author's backend. Hongxue believed it at first sight, because the screenshot someone Sun sent him was a screenshot of the author's backend of Xianyu An Lao Sun, including the pen name and the title of the work.
.
Such background screenshots are the most effective method of identity verification in the circle.
Under normal circumstances, the author himself will not send screenshots of his author's backend to others, mainly to prevent others from using his backstage screenshots to deceive and ruin his reputation.
Hongxue thought for a while and asked, "Are you really a fan of my books?"
Salted Fish My Lao Sun: “If it’s fake, I guarantee it will be replaced!”
Then, he sent Hongxue a smiling emoticon.
When he did this, Hongxue didn't know how to ask questions for a while. As the old saying goes: When the jackal comes, there is a shotgun; when a friend comes, there is good wine.
But the old saying doesn’t say what to do if the jackal comes claiming to be a friend?
Shoot him first and then offer him fine wine as a memorial?
Or should we entertain him with good wine first, and then shoot and kill him after we have had enough wine and food?
Hongxue fell into a state of deep thought. In fact, he was quite suspicious of what the other party said. Are you really a fan of my book?
Sun Quan from City M didn't know what Hongxue was thinking. When he saw Hongxue, he didn't ask any more questions. He thought about it, then typed an apology and sent it according to his own ideas. This was the result of adding Hongxue as his friend.
original intention.
So, the red blood saw...
Xianyu Anlaosun: "I'm here to apologize to you. I admit that I chose to publish a new book a few days ago, and I did have the idea of fighting with you, but please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions. You are my former
I like the master very much. I have played against many masters at Qidian in the past two years, but you have not been at Qidian in the past two years, so I have never had the opportunity to compete with you. It is really a pity, because in my heart, you
You are one of the top masters. If I could compete with you once, I would feel honored. Unfortunately, I still failed to do so this time.
What a pity!
I noticed that my willfulness this time seems to have affected your reputation, so I specifically added you on qq to say sorry! I'm sorry! Well, I'm done. If you don't want to see me again, you can add me on qq
It doesn’t matter if you delete it.”
After reading this sentence sent by Sun, Hongxue frowned and remained silent.
The expression is a bit complicated.
It's really complicated.
At this time, he was a little convinced that this guy was really a fan of his book, because if not, with his current identity and status in Qidian, there was no need to add him on QQ or type so many words to him.
It was precisely because he believed it a little that he became more and more complicated in his heart.
He noticed the word "previously" in the other person's words.
"You are the great god I used to like very much"...
Seeing this sentence, Hong Xue thought of a lot of information in his heart.
Why is it the master you liked so much in the past? Is it because after I went to the digital station, you stopped looking at my works?
He knew in his heart that many of his book fans had lost them in this way.
Many book fans have long been accustomed to looking for books to read at Qidian, and gradually stopped paying attention to the great masters who left Qidian.
In fact, he recently returned to Qidian to publish his new book "Xiao Ji", and he has long felt this atmosphere in the book review area. Readers in the book review area often said: Boss, you are finally back. Why haven't you written a book in the past two years?
Some readers asked in the book review area: This author used to be a great god? Is it true or false?
Who had asked similar questions before when he was at Qidian?
In those years, did any of Qidian’s readers not know that he had red blood?
