Let’s talk about some of the questions you’ve had and your thoughts on writing a book!
Some people have always said why they don’t write Eastern-type books on creation and the Creator. They must write this kind of book. In fact, the author tried it but gave up in the end because the core of this type lies in the concept of the only God, and our culture
This concept of understanding God is completely different. In our case, God must be of value to me before he is qualified to stay in the temple.
What kind of Supreme Creator God can bless me with wealth and long-term heirs? Why do you still expect me to believe in him without giving him anything? If he doesn’t show his spirit for three days after being given incense and offerings, I’ll whip him with a whip. If he doesn’t show his spirit for five days,
So I pulled the cannon over and blasted his temple.
Therefore, even if you are writing about oriental themes, the most suitable one is to write about man's victory over nature, expressing themes similar to Dayu's control of floods, Kuafu's pursuit of the sun, and Jingwei's reclamation of the sea. We can solve our own problems by ourselves without asking for any divine belief.
What fate.
Therefore, it is very strange for something like the One God to be written based on our cultural theme. As readers, when we read the novel, we can step into the perspective of the protagonist and experience the pleasure of the One God doing whatever he wants. But deep down, we don’t believe in this at all.
So it’s okay for me to be a god, but it’s not okay for me to believe in God, unless you can help me get rich.
Let’s talk about the idea and source of this book.
The idea of Yin Shen's ability originally came from Time Perception Syndrome. The symptom is that the perception of time will be confused. Some people will feel that time is slowing down, and some people will feel that time is speeding up. During the attack, the flow of time in the world in the eyes of ordinary people is normal.
In the eyes of people suffering from this symptom, either everything around them has slowed down, and their own movements have also slowed down, or they feel that everything around them, as well as their own heartbeat and movements have become very fast, which is of course not what everyone imagines.
Things like bullet time are different, because this is just a confusion of perception, you will not really become faster, and other people and objects around you will not really slow down.
But this strange feeling of being freed from the constraints of time must be different from the ordinary perspective, so there is the dialogue in the first chapter and the setting of Yin Shen's ability.
Tell me about the idea of writing a book.
The First Era is basically from the perspective of the Creator. When I wrote it, there was no core thing to express, so everyone can actually see that the writing method and routine are my three most convenient methods in the past. When problems arise, apply pressure, and then the protagonist comes out.
Or the power he represents can be solved with supreme power. Once used very familiarly, the feeling of relief is usually very strong and straightforward, but the routine is repeated only a few times.
The second era is from the perspective of the gods. In this time period, there are some things that I want to express. The core of this story is the disputes and devout beliefs of the gods. However, one problem with the way the group portraits are written is that the main plot is all scattered.
Yes, my three-axe and one-trick technique was about to be eliminated by the times, so I designed two main lines to connect the whole story. One is the royal bloodline and faith, and the other is the pursuit and grudges of the Temple of Truth. The whole story is basically
It follows these two threads, and finally ends with the end of the oath and civilization moving towards the stars.
When the Third Era was first published, I mentioned in the introduction to this chapter that I wanted to write a story from a mortal perspective. The core thing I wanted to express was fate and the theme of the prison bird. However, the core writing method used in the previous two eras cannot be used.
Everything has to be overthrown and started all over again. When I bought a set of tarot cards a long time ago and played around with them, I discovered that tarot cards are actually the journey of a person's life. I suddenly thought of writing it according to this. The protagonist is the Fool card and starts his own life.
The Magician card and the Priestess card allow him to gain strength and listen to his own voice. The Queen card and the Emperor card represent that he has a family, a tribe and establishes order. The Pope card represents the beginning of the protagonist's faith and conveys his own values and ideas.
The Lover card stage begins with companions, chariots, powers, hermits, wheel of fortune, etc. Finally, the mortal goes all the way to the Judgment card and the World card. The Judgment represents that he begins to find himself and faces himself and all the past, and the World card
It represents the end, a new beginning and the eternal cycle of life. The wheels never stop turning. At this point, a complete set of structures is basically completed.
This is the general idea of the whole book, the core theme of the expression, three eras, three perspectives and three different writing methods, and the main line running through the entire book is Yin Shen's departure from the universe and his return to the universe.
In the future, I may have the idea to write about the setting and story about the power of dreams, but I have written it from the perspective of the Creator, the perspective of the statues of gods, and the perspective of mortals. I will basically repeat it again until I find a good entry.
It’s probably a long time since I clicked or learned something new. It’s hard to break through on the same subject matter. It’s better to write something different.
