Sister-in-law Wang cooked a table of delicious dishes. Huo Yiyi and Luo Na were invited to come as guests. Luo Na arrived first, bringing some fruits. As a subordinate, there were some things she was not suitable to ask, so she never asked Sun Quan about their visit this time.
What happened in the magic city?
It wasn't until evening that Huo Yiyi came.
Huo Yiyi is not a subordinate of Sun Quan and Yuan Shuiqing. They are all friends. She has no scruples in her heart. As soon as she arrived, she curiously asked Yuan Shuiqing, "Sister Yuan, why are you here suddenly? Is there anything you want to do here this time?"
Yuan Shuiqing didn't hide it from her, and told her with a smile, "I'm here for a pregnancy test. The hospital here is of a higher quality. Come here for a check-up, and you'll feel more at ease."
"Pregnancy test?"
Huo Yiyi was surprised at the time and subconsciously looked at Yuan Shuiqing's still flat belly. Lorna, who was sitting next to her, also looked surprised and looked at Yuan Shuiqing's belly.
"Are you pregnant again?" Huo Yiyi was curious.
Yuan Shuiqing smiled and nodded.
"How many months has it been?" Lorna couldn't help but ask.
Yuan Shuiqing: "It's less than a month!"
Huo Yiyi subconsciously looked at Sun Quan, who was playing with her daughter, and praised him: "Brother Quan is awesome!"
Sun Quan: "..."
How should he answer this?
He had no choice but to smile and say nothing. Do you want to admit that he is really awesome?
Because they learned that Yuan Shuiqing was pregnant, when they had dinner tonight, Huo Yiyi and Luo Na toasted to Sun Quan. Yuan Shuiqing was spared, but Sun Quan was toasted a lot by these two women.
But he wasn't drunk enough either.
After the meal, Sister-in-law Wang brought a pot of freshly brewed black tea, and everyone chatted while drinking tea, talking about pregnancy, Rona's work in Shanghai, Huo Yiyi's current work, and
Sun Quan recently produced "The Voice of China", and is currently recording "The Birth of an Actor", as well as "I Am a Singer" which is about to be recorded by Lychee TV.
You say something, I say something, the topic floats around, and the conversation ends wherever it goes.
Sun Quan didn't participate for long and went to play with his daughter. As a man, he was still not used to participating in the topic of three women.
But soon, Huo Yiyi came next to him, squatted aside and watched him and his daughter playing with the blocks on the carpet with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Brother Quan, didn't you say you have a project that you want to bring me to make money with? I can't wait.
The flowers have faded, where is the project?”
Sun Quan burst out laughing, he didn't expect that she still remembered this!
such a pity!
He looked at her and said with a smile: "Don't worry, wait a little longer! Look, your sister Yuan is pregnant again! How can we think of starting a new project now? Right?"
Let’s do this! Let’s talk about it after you, Sister Yuan, have finished unloading the food? How about it?”
Hey, don't tell me, Yuan Shuiqing's pregnancy this time provided him with such an excuse.
Huo Yiyi smiled and nodded, "Okay! You have the final say!"
Since she came to chat with him, Sun Quan thought about it and randomly found a topic, "How is it? Have you regretted quitting the competition recently?"
He was asking about Huo Yiyi's withdrawal from "The Voice of China" halfway through.
Huo Yiyi shook her head, "No! You have to be self-aware. You have already used your trump cards. If you don't retreat bravely and continue to compete, you will only expose your own shortcomings. What is there to regret? By the way, are you planning to focus on TV variety shows now?
Not counting the completion of "The Voice of China", I have recently created two new variety shows. Do you plan to focus mainly on variety shows in the future? Don't you want to write novels? "
novel……
Sun Quan shook his head, "No, doing variety shows is just for fun. I won't do it when I have enough fun."
"Play tickets?"
Huo Yiyi smiled and said, "You've really played a lot with your tickets! You did three variety shows in one go. People who specialize in variety shows don't launch new shows as often as you do, right?"
Sun Quan smiled, "So it's just for fun! If it wasn't for fun, my new program wouldn't be promoted so frequently and so casually."
…
The two chatted about some non-nutritious topics. After about an hour, Huo Yiyi and Luo Na left one after another.
Because Sun Quan drank some wine and because Yuan Shuiqing was currently pregnant, he did not rush to the study upstairs. Instead, he stayed downstairs with his wife and daughter. The focus was on playing with his daughter until she was tired and sleepy.
After going to bed, he took a shower, then went to the study room and turned on the computer.
While the computer was turning on, he thought of what Huo Yiyi asked him tonight - don't you want to write a novel?
As a writer, being asked such a question will touch his heart to some extent.
Just like in a martial arts movie, a swordsman is suddenly asked one day: Are you not going to use a sword in the future?
After the computer booted up, Sun Quan opened the browser, came to the starting point, logged into the author's backend, and clicked on the page of "The Sword of Gods in the Clouds".
Looking at the current data of this book...
The total number of clicks is more than 57 million, the total recommendation votes are more than 4 million, and the total number of words...2.77 million...
This kind of data is extremely beautiful.
The calculation method of starting point data in this period is different from before and will be different from the future. Therefore, the data of the works of the starting point masters in this period are very exaggerated. A book with tens of millions of total clicks frequently appears, and works with nearly 100 million clicks appear.
Pass.
But regardless of whether it is a problem with the calculation method that causes the various data to be exaggerated, the total clicks of more than 50 million means that this book is very popular, at least in terms of data.
There are also a long list of various honorary medals in the Hall of Honor for his works.
But looking at these data, Sun Quan frowned and remained silent.
The total clicks and total recommended votes are indeed very good, but in his opinion, the total number of words is a little less.
It has been almost a year since the publication of this book. If he were to update at the rate of his first two books during the serialization period, the total number of words now should be more than four million.
But now the total word count of this book is only 2.77 million.
In the past half year or so, his update speed has indeed slowed down a lot. If it hadn't been for the relatively good update speed in the first few months after it was released, the current total word count would probably be much lower.
Silently, he pulled the page down to the section about monthly tickets and rewards.
Today is already mid-May, but the total number of monthly votes for this book is only over 3,900.
Currently ranked 18th overall.
It has already fallen out of the top ten of the overall list.
Not only the monthly ticket, but also the number of people who tipped on that day was only 9 people.
You must know that during the serialization of his first two books, when the popularity was at its peak, the number of people who tipped the book was at least double digits that day, and sometimes there were one or two hundred people tipping in a day.
Continuing to scroll down the book page, Sun Quan saw the book review area.
Book reviews came into his eyes one after another.
"Which program will be aired first, "The Birth of an Actor" or "I Am a Singer"? Can Lao Sun reveal the broadcast date?"
"I learned from the news that Lao Sun was recently participating in the recording of "The Birth of a Drama Queen", but he did not go to the "I Am a Singer" show. Is it because, Lao Sun, you are more optimistic about the program "The Birth of a Drama Queen"?"
"I just finished watching the last episode of "The Voice of China". After reading it, I felt disappointed. I don't have any favorite variety shows to follow, so I'd better come back and read your book! Lao Sun, I'm not talking about you. How many times have you been doing these days?
The monthly update speed is too slow! Is this your style? Where is that crazy person who used to update more? "
"After half a month of reading it, I finished reading it in a few hours. The author is really living up to his name and is really a salty fish! Alas!"
"I would like to ask, will Liang Bo participate in "I Am a Singer"?"
…
Sun Quan silently browsed the posts in the book review area and found that most of the book reviews were about those three variety shows.
In his novel book review area, no one talked about the characters and plots in the book, but instead discussed three variety shows...
Before, every time he read book reviews and saw these posts discussing variety shows, he was quite happy.
I think it's pretty good, since everyone is talking about the variety shows he curated anyway, so praising those few variety shows is tantamount to praising him.
Even when "The Voice of China" was on the air, his book "The Sword of Gods in the Clouds" was popular because of the popularity of "The Voice of China". Many variety show fans came to vote for him, which made his book become the top spot for a time.
He was quite happy when he ranked first in the monthly ticket rankings.
I feel quite proud.
But tonight, because his mentality has changed, he felt quite uncomfortable when he saw that his novel review section had turned into what he saw in front of him.
He knows better than anyone how "The Voice of China" was created.
Is that a program originally created by someone else?
no!
What about "The Birth of an Actor" and "I Am a Singer"?
These are not his original programs. He is just a porter, using the information advantage of rebirth to reap a wave of benefits in the process of porting.
Who would be proud of being praised for the exquisite workmanship of something they stole?
After his rebirth, he only had three original novels to his name.
Although these three books also borrow some settings from some popular works in my memory, the characters, plots, etc. are all completely original by him.
These are what he is truly proud of.
Not only this, he also knew in his heart that novels were the foundation of his career.
It was also what he cared about most in his past and present lives.
His current catering company, Xianyu Studio, villa, car, wife, daughter, variety shows, etc., all evolved from this basic base.
If there were no novels that made him his first pot of gold, if there were no novels that made him famous, would he be where he is today?
He suddenly felt that he was ashamed of the book fans who had supported him over the past few years. Not every book fan likes to watch variety shows. Some of the old book fans must be disappointed that I have not been doing my job properly in the past few months, right?
After smoking a cigarette, Sun Quan sighed, put his hands on his face, rubbed them vigorously, opened the document, brought up the saved manuscript, and sent out three chapters in one breath.
He thought about it. In the next period of time, while his wife was raising a baby, he didn't have to go to Hangzhou to participate in the recording of the program. He tried to squeeze out as much time as possible to write this book.
According to the current outline in his hand, there is not much space left in the book. He plans to concentrate his energy and thoughts on finishing the book.
Just think of it as saving up your character!
As a professional writer, you still need to have good character. You can live up to the website and the editor, but you cannot live up to the expectations of book fans.
Because book fans are his food and clothing parents.
