Chapter 8

NO1.

Qingyi Zhi Feng: I'm not quite sure what kind of future the author plans to design for the protagonist, but it's probably going to be one of two directions. One is the brainless YY (wish fulfillment) trend that's all over the place now. Write a couple of books and earn a million a year; you can't be idle in college, right? Showing off and humiliating others is a given. Then, adapting novels into movies, becoming a director, investing in internet real estate, and easily amassing a fortune of tens of millions. After a hundred chapters or so, by the age of twenty, the protagonist will be a billionaire. At this point, the author's imagination might have already gone off the rails. These ridiculous brain-dead YY stories just can't stop. Brain-dead second-generation officials and rich kids will come on the scene, making money faster than a printing press. By the time the book ends, if the protagonist doesn't have a net worth of several billion and a few Red Second-Generation friends, it's simply unscientific. I'm sure many of you are familiar with this pattern. Over 90% of current web urban novels follow this routine.

The other direction is a more reasonable YY about the protagonist's life and career. The author may not know the details of Jack Ma's life and career, but they should be clear about the fate of a writer's career and a miraculous book. It's ridiculous to think that the protagonist can write a book and instantly become a millionaire, then invest in real estate and Baidu and Taobao, amassing a net worth of several billion. On the contrary, when the protagonist works hard, chapter by chapter, book by book, accumulating readers, and progresses from earning nothing to an annual salary of 200,000, 500,000, and then a million, becoming a web literature god, and from having nothing to owning a bookstore, an internet cafe, a coffee shop, and a restaurant, and from needing to work hard to support their parents and Rao Rao to having enough money to enjoy life, the sun, coffee, steak, and presidential suites, isn't this life already successful enough? Isn't this gradual effort and gradual gain in fame, wealth, and career enough to make your readers feel satisfied and happy? When your readers just want to pass the time, but end up enjoying the protagonist's success in life, love, and career through this book, will they leave you? I wonder why those who rack their brains to make the protagonist earn several billion are doing it? What good feelings can readers get from these novels? The significance of a web novel is to make its readers feel happy and content through simple reading!

There are many reincarnation novels now, but almost none of them satisfy me. Why? You can think about why you want to be reincarnated. When I was 5, I hoped I could have endless ice cream, so I dug cicadas to sell for money to buy ice cream. When I was 10, I wanted to be strong and not be bullied, so I worked hard to build my body and searched the world for martial arts secrets. When I was 18, I wanted to be in the best school, find the prettiest and cutest school flower, go to a coffee shop for coffee, and stay in a presidential suite at a five-star hotel. So before that, I would work hard to earn money and make myself handsome. When you see the protagonist working hard for small goals and achieving them, do you feel happy and content, or do you feel happy when the protagonist engages in intrigue and earns a few million, then works hard to earn a few tens of millions and plays house with others? In my view, only those that are based on the principle of "enjoyment" and have "reasonable YY" as the backbone, with the goal of making readers feel happy and content, are true web literature! If it's not enjoyable, it won't keep readers; if it's not reasonable, it won't touch the heart; if it doesn't make readers feel happy and content in quick reading, it doesn't deserve to be called web literature. I just had a moment of inspiration. If the author reads this comment, I hope the author will seriously consider what the protagonist will do in the future and how to make your readers feel happy and content from your novel. Giving flowers to others leaves a lingering fragrance; readers will like authors who bring them joy. I said all this just so that this book, which I think is fresh and unique among millions of novels, doesn't end up being just another one.

Ni Bai Fo: The second direction, very good!
