Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 226: Finding faults in "God's Tomb" and "Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Linglong Tower"

Cao Sheng said a few perfunctory words to Wang Jing and ended the call. When he was about to put down his phone, he saw a few unread text messages.

They all asked about his secret meeting with Joey Wong.

He was too lazy to answer such questions.

I guess someone will send me a text message or even call me to ask about this in a while.

So he muted his phone.

He casually placed his phone upside down on the desk, frowned, and tried to get back to the state he was in when he was typing just now.

When typing, what I fear most is being interrupted.

Once a smooth process is interrupted, it becomes difficult to resume.

At least that's how he is.

And he has also seen authors who are not afraid of being interrupted.

Before his rebirth, a writer friend from another place came to play with him. That guy had a very fast writing speed, but it was more than just a fast writing speed.

He would never forget the sight of that guy typing away while chatting with him in the hotel room.

The guy even asked him to bring his notebook over so they could write together. He said it would be fun to chat while writing.

Cao Sheng was quite surprised at that time.

Why can he still chat with people when he can't understand the code?
Later he thought about it carefully and guessed that guy was a typical method writer.

You don't have to put much effort into writing a novel. You just need to organize the story according to various methods and techniques.

Unlike him, when he writes, he has to put himself in the role of the male protagonist before he can continue writing.

……

Bay Bay.

Jiao Jieru from Xinran Culture was surfing the Internet at her residence at this time. She planned to write an email to Zhongyuan Yidianhui tonight to test his attitude and see if he had any idea of ​​cooperating with another publishing house.
According to her experience, it is often easier to talk to authors about work at night.

During the day, you are more likely to be rejected.

She felt that this was similar to falling in love.

When you confess your love to someone at night, the other person is generally more relaxed physically and mentally, and is much less rational than during the day, making it easier for your confession to succeed.

However, before writing him an email, she planned to find out about his recent situation.

How to know?

Look at his work!
Jiao Jieru came under the banyan tree and found "God's Tomb" and "The Mysterious Tower of Heaven and Earth" which were currently being serialized by Zhongyuan Yidianhui.

First, let’s see how often he updates in recent days.

If the frequency is high, it means that he is concentrating on his work recently. Otherwise, it means that he may be busy with other things recently.

If his mind is not on his work recently, then the success rate of talking to him about cooperation will probably not be high.

She noticed that the frequency of his recent updates to these two books was about the same as before.

"God's Tomb" updates one chapter every day.

"The Linglong Tower of Mysterious Heaven and Earth" updates one chapter every three days.

The update frequency has not changed.

It's hard to judge what he's thinking recently based on this.

She frowned and began to look at the review section of his two books.

According to her experience, if the response in the book review section is very good, it means that he has been writing well recently and is concentrating on his work.

Otherwise, the opposite is true.

result?

She saw that there were many posts in the book review sections of the two books discussing his secret meeting with Joey Wong.

Jiao Jieru was stunned.

She couldn't believe her eyes and even suspected that she had gone to the wrong book review section.

How could he, a novelist, have a secret meeting with Joey Wong?

It’s fine that he can cross over to write scripts, but can he also cross over to fall in love?
When she found the relevant news online and confirmed that Zhongyuan Yidianhui had really been alone with Joey Wong for almost three hours that afternoon, she was numb.

My heart sank to the bottom.

I feel it's very difficult. He has already had a tryst with Joey Wong, how can my beauty still make him fall in love with me?
She has been able to poach author after author from other publishing houses in the past two years, and she knows how she did it.

——Beauty trap!

Whenever she wanted to recruit an author, if she could get his/her phone number, whether it was a mobile phone or a landline, she would call him/her first.

Let the other person hear her gentle and pleasant voice.

Generally speaking, male authors, regardless of their age, will treat her much better once they have heard her voice.

Afterwards, she would find an opportunity to meet the other party and let him see what she looked like.

Beautiful editor, once she successfully gives the other person this impression, it will be much easier for her to poach him.

It can be said that the authors she recruited in the past two years gave her confidence.

Let her believe that she has hope of digging out some dust from Central Plains.

Although she was just promoted to deputy editor this year.

But she was not satisfied.

I want to take this opportunity to prove my ability and go one step further and get promoted again.

She was quite confident.

However, when she suddenly saw the news on the Internet that Zhongyuan Yidianhui and Wang Zuxian were having a secret meeting, she felt suddenly disappointed.

The confidence was suddenly gone.

How to do this?
She frowned and thought for a long time, and only thought of one way: show her gentleness!
She didn't believe that Wang Zuxian could be gentle in front of him. As long as she could surpass Wang Zuxian in this aspect, she might still have a hope of poaching him.

With this in mind, she logged into her email and started writing an email.

Unlike other editors who approached authors to commission articles, she did not write to him as an editor, but instead claimed to be a fan of his books and wanted to give him some suggestions on his work, hoping that he would adopt them.

She knows that many authors don't respond to emails inviting them to contribute.

But most authors will respond to emails from fans.

What she had to do now was to strike up a conversation with him as a book fan, and then as an enthusiastic book fan, suggest that he change publishing house.

When he was interested, she would change to another account and contact him as an editor to discuss the terms of cooperation.

The reason why she has been able to recruit many authors in the past two years.

It's not just the beauty trap.

She has always felt that if you want to poach people, you must pay attention to the methods and ways.

You can't be straightforward.

If you try to recruit people directly, you will likely be rejected outright or even ignored by the other party.

It is not difficult for her to give suggestions on Zhongyuan Yidianhui's works.

She has read all his works.

As an editor, it was not difficult for her to find some flaws in his work.

For example: "Tomb of the Gods".

The book has good sales and good reputation, and she also thinks it is well written, but if she wants to find fault, she can still find a lot of faults.

For example: A major feature of this book is that the plot progresses very quickly, which can be an advantage or a disadvantage.

Because the plot progresses too quickly, it will inevitably lack subtlety, and in terms of character creation, most of the characters will become stereotyped.

The characters’ images will not be three-dimensional and vivid enough.

For example: "The Exquisite Tower of Heaven and Earth".

The suspense and tense atmosphere of this book are the strongest among Zhongyuan Yidianhui's books. It is fascinating and you can't put it down.

This is an advantage, but it can also be interpreted as a disadvantage.

Because works with too much suspense and tension are more brain-burning, readers must use their brains in order to understand them.

This kind of book is very exciting to read, but it will be tiring if you read it for a long time.

Moreover, the protagonist of this book goes into one movie world after another to adventure. After entering each movie world, the protagonist has many choices.

She could have discussed the male protagonist in the book with Zhongyuan Yidianhui. Is there a better choice?

Sitting in front of the computer, she racked her brains and found a lot of problems with his work.
