The King of Crossover Entertainment.

Chapter 81 0081, sad ending [Please collect, please vote]

New York, 32nd floor of the Sea Eagle Building, Sea Eagle Literature Network editorial office.

Bian Dong saw in the background that there were some abnormalities in the update volume of VIP chapters and the number of subscriptions to the first chapter of "Unrivaled in Three Realms". He frowned and immediately used the internal phone to inform me that it was the editor Carl of Sweet Potato, and asked him to come to his office quickly.

"What's going on? An hour has passed, why is there only one updated chapter for the VIP chapter of "Unrivaled in Three Realms"? And why are there only over 400,000 subscriptions?"

Whether it is "Unrivaled in Three Realms" or "Ghost Blows Out the Light", the number of collections far exceeds that of "Zhu Xian". Even if the subscription is higher than that of "Zhu Xian", the first subscription can be close to the one million of "Zhu Xian" at that time.

Facing Bian Dong's questioning, Karl wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied: "I can't get through to Digu on the phone. I can't get in touch with him. The specific situation... the specific situation..."

Bian Dong's face changed slightly, and he scolded: "It's already late, if you have something to say, just say it, if you have something to say, just fart, don't be so hesitant in front of me."

Carl said quickly, "Last week I found that the combat power of "Unrivaled in Three Realms" was a bit broken. I asked Di Gua at the time, and he said that it was written like this in order to design more intensive excitement points, so I didn't take it seriously. I guess... it was written badly."

Moreover, he just went to the comment section of "Unrivaled in Three Realms" and analyzed some comments posted by readers, so it should be correct.

"It's a mess?" Bian Dong slammed his palm on the desk and shouted, "At this critical moment, you tell me it's a mess?"

Carl looked helpless and didn't dare to respond. He just sighed in his heart: This is not my fault.

Bian Dong tried hard to calm himself down, but how could he stay calm after something like this happened?

"Unrivaled in Three Realms" has been recommended by Haidiao Literature Network with all its resources since the book was first published. If the writing fails, it means the book is finished, and it also means losing the battle for traffic on the novel website that they started.

Karl asked tentatively: “Deputy Editor Bian, what should we do now?”

He knew the seriousness of the matter, but no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't think of a solution.

At this moment, the title of "deputy editor-in-chief" sounded particularly harsh in Bian Dong's ears.

He thought for a long time, his face uglier than before, and said in a deep voice: "If you continue to contact me, I am Digua. You must find him. I will go to see the editor-in-chief now."

Hearing him say that he was going to meet the editor-in-chief, Karl shuddered, said, "I'll contact him right away, I'm Sweet Potato," and then left quickly.

Bian Dong frowned and his brain worked fast, thinking about how to talk about this matter when he met Alyssa later.

"Everything has gone wrong since I came to Haidiao Literature Network. What's going on?"

----

In Pengcheng, Guanghui Community, a three-bedroom, two-living-room house.

In the dim room, the curtains were closed, the doors and windows were locked, and the only light in the room came from the computer monitor on the table.

And in front of the computer, there was a person sitting.

I saw that he had messy hair, haggard face and untidy beard, his eyes were hollow and lifeless, he had dark circles under his eyes, and he looked very unkempt and lacked energy.

At this moment, he placed his hands tremblingly on the keyboard, typed a few words in the document, waited for a while, deleted the words, and then continued to write, write and delete, and repeat this process.

This person is exactly me, Sweet Potato.

“I can’t write a single word, ahhh…”

He took his hands off the keyboard and grabbed his head in collapse, despair and pain.

"Unrivaled in Three Realms" was carefully prepared for a month, with an outline and detailed outlines. The system setting alone took a full fifteen days.

For the 10 million yuan a year contract fee from Haidiao Literature Network, he risked everything, sleeping only two or three hours a day and spending the rest of the time typing, determined to publish ten chapters a day.

The plot progressed at the beginning according to the outline and detailed outline.

When I saw that all the data of my work "Unrivaled in Three Realms" were ahead of the cross-border superstar "Ghost Blows Out the Light", I felt like I was given an injection of chicken blood. The more I wrote, the more excited I became, and the more I let myself go, and the plot gradually deviated from the outline and details.

By the time I realized something was wrong, it was too late. The plot of more than 200,000 words needed major changes, so I just went with it and continued writing.

A few days before the book was put on the shelves, I could still barely squeeze together the chapters that needed to be updated that day.

But today, my mind was blank. Even looking at the outline and detailed outline was useless. I couldn’t type a single sentence the whole day.

Not to mention the 100 chapters that I promised the editor to publish, it was simply impossible to accomplish.

"It's over, it's all over!"

----

"It's broken. In the early stage, he has already stepped on the strong men of the Tribulation Crossing Stage and tore apart the masters of the Nascent Soul Stage with his bare hands."

"Alas, I have vaguely seen signs of collapse in the past few days. One chapter is a slap in the face, and two chapters are a show of force. It's forced just for the sake of having fun."

"There is no plot logic at all. A new character appears and, for whatever reason, he is determined to go against the protagonist."

"Don't be impatient, don't be greedy for small gains. Haste makes waste, and small gains will lead to failure. It's a pity that I don't understand this truth." "Actually, it's not completely unwatchable, but you should update it."

……

Yunfeng and others have learned what happened from the comments section of "Unrivaled in Three Realms" and the posts in the online literature circle.

"The final battle ended just as it began..." Wang Defa's face was full of disappointment, and he was ready to canvass for votes all night long.

Ma Siyu smiled and said, "This is called overestimating one's own ability. Not everyone can keep up with the crazy man's incredible typing speed."

Xia Dachuan looked straight at Yunfeng and said, "I really want to open his head and see what's inside."

Li Junyi said seriously: "I guess there is a typewriter."

"Typewriter?" Xiao Tianpeng smiled and said, "I think it's a supercomputer."

Yunfeng didn't expect this to be the ending.

But then again, writing continuously and intensively for nearly a month, more than 20,000 words a day, and ensuring the quality is something that few full-time authors can do.

Yunfeng is an exception because you don’t have to think about the plot or look up information.

"We haven't even tried our best, why did he fall down?"

"You can't even hold out for ten minutes, and you still want to kill a god?"

“I would like to call the King of Crossover the strongest author in the online literature world!”

"It's cold up there, it's cold up there."

"It seems that the record set by the crossover king can only be broken by the crossover king."

……

Fans of the cross-border superstar are already celebrating, and his victory is no longer a foregone conclusion.

However, the climax was not as intense as expected, it was short and boring.

In the Xianmeng WeChat group, there were more sighs than cheers.

"I just came back from the bathroom and was about to have a good time, why is it over?"

"Our Immortal Alliance army hasn't even shown up yet..."

"I wanted to be the last one to score a last-second goal, but now it's like this, it's uncomfortable."

"I even specially switched shifts with my colleagues."

"Everyone go away and go to bed."

……

The highly anticipated battle of the century, which could be recorded in the history of the development of online literature, ended unexpectedly with such an outcome.

Back in China, it was already late at night, and seeing that there was no more melon to eat, everyone dispersed.

In the United States, it was still Friday afternoon. At this time, Bian Dong was rushing to the airport. He couldn't reach me by phone, so he could only go to the address on the contract.

----

Twenty-four hours later, the first orders for "Unrivaled in Three Realms" and "Ghost Blows Out the Light" came out.

"Unrivaled in Three Realms", 700,000.

"Ghost Blows Out the Light", 1.5 million.

The first orders of the two books differed by as much as two times.

Although "Unrivaled in Three Realms" added nine chapters and issued a single chapter of apology more than ten hours after it was released, it did not help. Readers did not buy it because the quality of these nine chapters was worrying. They were just a diary with a lot of nonsense, and they were not even connected to the previous plot.

In contrast, the fifty chapters of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" were updated in one go, and the plot is compact, exciting, and fascinating, without any water injection.

There are even many fans of "Unrivaled in Three Realms" who have switched to "Ghost Blows Out the Light".

The failure of "Unrivaled in Three Realms" caused Haidiao Literature Network, which had dominated the throne of the traffic king of novel websites for 15 years, to fall from the altar. I thought I was Sweet Potato could replicate the success of the cross-border king, but I didn't expect that it would suffer a big setback because of this move.

In the end, Panda Chinese Network made a high-profile announcement to the entire network, congratulating "Ghost Blows Out the Light" for setting a new record by exceeding 1.5 million first orders, announcing that the matter had come to an end.
