I originally planned to talk about the ending first, but I don’t know where to start, so I’ll just talk about it wherever I think of it.
Martial arts, how should I put it, has been improving before I achieved Waigang. I also had a lot of fun writing it. No matter daily life, relationships, or fighting, the characters have all broken through the past. There are laughter, curses, and simple meals, all of which have become articles.
The feeling, especially the expression of emotions, is a bit smooth and natural.
Passionate, warm, sweet, funny, stylish, the taste of first love, pure mood, getting stronger little by little and surpassing previous expectations, all met my inner expectations.
But after achieving Waigang, it started to become difficult. As mentioned in the previous leave letter, there were so many things laid out. It was impossible and impossible to change the style of painting. If I didn't focus on writing about the arena competition, writing this would become monotonous.
tedious.
Before starting the book, I actually anticipated this situation. The default solution was to switch to group portraits to increase the suspense of victory and defeat, and to use missions in war-torn areas to dilute the sense of repetition.
However, it is always wonderful when I think about it, but when the real thing comes, I realize that I have underestimated the problem.
Group portraits can solve this difficulty, but the problem is that it cannot be changed. It is already two million words long. It will be difficult for readers to be emotionally involved if each character is introduced, because there is no common experience, no crying or laughing together.
Moreover, when I arrived in Waigang, I couldn't let such a successful and powerful man be full of passion and desire like a young man. Therefore, although there is the temptation of the title and the best in the world, the inner driving force of the character is straight.
decline.
Without this, the suspense of victory and defeat will not arouse the ups and downs of emotions, and the arena match will be quite boring.
If you want to write a group portrait, you must have motivation, desire, and goals to bring everyone together. Without this, it will be just a mess and unreadable.
If you really want to write group portraits, you should start from the university martial arts club, from the very beginning, because it will be hard to come back.
Therefore, I later cut off a lot of arena games to speed up the progress, but even so, the sixth part could not be started. When I asked for leave at the end, I decided to cut the knot quickly, otherwise the quality of the book would decline drastically.
Of course, the branches are gone, but the main trunk remains unchanged. This ending itself is the predetermined ending, but it lacks a lot of foreshadowing and is not rounded enough in many places.
Well, as someone who has a perfect (wrong) score in Chinese reading comprehension, let me show you why it is said to be a predetermined ending.
Do you still remember Lou Cheng’s first arena match? Xiao Wu Sheng!
From the young martial sage to the martial sage, it is the beginning and end of martial arts.
From the distant view of Keke in Hanfu in the first chapter to the Hanfu at the wedding, there is an emotional echo from beginning to end - this was actually added later. The earliest schedule was as follows: Lou Cheng gets the title of Martial Saint, Keke returns to China,
When she saw the person waiting in the distance at the exit, it was like Lou Cheng was looking at her from afar. Then, she walked over and went home.
This artistic conception is better than today's, but I was out of my mind at the time and set the Wujie War finals in mid-July. The time couldn't be adjusted! I could only adjust...
Fortunately, after a long period of deliberation, the feeling of the flower market lights like daylight on the Lantern Festival last year was not bad.
Well, in terms of characters, due to the deletion of the net and the arena competition, it was not able to achieve the expected goals very well.
After I set up my three views, I sketched Lou Cheng and Ke Ke little by little. The initial youthful, ignorant, and cautious contact were all very real and beautiful. Later, when we get along with each other in relationships, it is inevitable that there will be some flavor of that aspect.
, Keke went from being shy and tolerant to breaking out and choosing to communicate. I think it was when she suddenly came to life that her image was established. After that, she did not give up on herself. The two became more beautiful because of their love for each other and did not lose their souls.
Independence means deepening.
I originally planned to use the exotic romance to show the two people's respective experiences and the running-in of small details after the professional arena competition started, making the characters fuller and more agile, such as Lou Cheng's sense of abstinence, and Ke Ke's seemingly weak personality.
The contrast between appearance and firm heart.
It's a pity that NetNet has eliminated a lot of the foreshadowing, and the large-scale reduction of the group competition has also forced the daily routine to be reduced accordingly. Otherwise, it would be top-heavy, and only part of what I wanted to express came out, which was not satisfactory.
Well, this is a beautiful story, a warm story, I hope it can bring memories and unconscious smiles to everyone.
I have said it before the new book on martial arts. Although this year there are two more ideas that I want to write and think are good, but they are not as strong as it. Let’s do it step by step. These new two will be written later.
Take your time and don't rush.
The style of the new book is probably like this, steampunk, Victorian era, hidden mystery, self-struggle, with suspense and revelation as a major feature, mixed with some Cthulhu-like elements.
Well, I will make the setting myself. It’s just that part of the horror style is more like Cthulhu, so don’t expect to see Mr. Ah.
In short, the style of painting is a bit like the old universe in I. At that time, I already had the idea for this book, and I needed an original copy, so I unknowingly reflected it a little bit. Of course, the details were greatly changed.
It’s a different theme, a different feeling, and a new challenge. On April 1st next year, the mystery will begin!
Well, this time I took a long break because there was a Chinese New Year in the middle. In addition, I had to save the manuscript to pay off my debts. There were seven chapters, and there was a lot of information to read, so I had to be fully prepared.
In the past four months, everyone is welcome to follow my WeChat official account. After finishing the book, I will have time to update it. Depending on the situation, if I have inspiration, I may write a little bit, and then I will share more interesting things with you every once in a while.
, for example, I once had an idea but it is no longer included in my writing plan.
Speaking of this, I actually prepared a martial arts extra chapter at the beginning, such as the setting of taboos, the injury of the master, the dragon king's request, and other countries facing China's powerful alliance Zonglianheng. Because the style of painting is different from the main text, I planned
Treat it as a side story.
But now, I have to take care of my body, and I have filled in all the things I need to fill, and the taste of revenge is almost gone, so I'd better rest well.
Welcome to follow my public account: wuzei1985, and I will share my ideas with you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
