Chapter 1375
Immortal Tea Party 13: The Lu Qingzhou Has Passed Ten Thousand Mountains
Immortal Tea Party 13 - The Lu Qingzhou Has Passed Ten Thousand Mountains: The debate in the book review section about "water writing" is a bit intense. After a period of observation and reflection, Shui Yun has decided to hold another tea party to respond to everyone's concerns.
The focus of the debate is probably concentrated on the following two points:
First, some book friends believe that the current Glittering Gold Plain volume has too many side quests and the main plot is advancing slowly.
Second, the protagonist often chats and fools around with friends, plus descriptions of food, and there isn't enough "dry goods."
The daily update length is limited, and the above two points lead to finishing it after flipping through, resulting in a poor experience for following the updates.
If there are other problems, everyone can add them later.
Let's talk about the first point first; let's look at the main plot and side quests of the "Glittering Gold" volume.
The main plot of this volume is to unify the Glittering Gold Plain; everyone has no doubt about this, right? Then the next point of interest is, how will the protagonist achieve this?
If it were another novel, at most, it would be adding points to the deep blue, thickening the golden finger, and pushing and crushing all the way in the later stages, with full satisfaction.
But this does not fit the tone of this book, nor is it the selling point of this book; the only golden finger in this book is not very good to Young Master He.
Still the old saying, why should it be your turn to occupy a good place? If the protagonist wants to unify the Glittering Gold Plain, there is no other way but to follow the steps and do a lot of careful and meticulous preparatory work.
Recalling the second volume of "The Ideal Nation of Demons," the main plot was to make a scene in the Tiangong and take back the lid of the Great Fanghu. The climax part was only a few dozen chapters, and the time in the book was only a short two quarters of an hour, but how much preparation and effort did the protagonist make for this?
Are those many pens and descriptions just fillers added by the author to lengthen the length and cheat some manuscript fees?
The second volume of "Demon Nation" actually had as many as eight side quests, eight lines running in parallel, gradually merging, and finally gathering on the main plot, pushing the overwhelming and earth-shattering climax together.
Each side quest involves different events and characters, not only allowing everyone to substitute into different perspectives and see through the strength and weakness of the 600-year empire, but also making the victory of the weak over the strong in the Tiangong battle possible. In fact, they will connect to subsequent plots in the future, and their significance and weight will continue to increase.
Returning to the "Glittering Gold" volume, the protagonist faces the same problem: the task difficulty is too great and the opponent is too strong.
He Lingchuan's opponents are not just the Glittering Gold tycoons, but also all the forces that do not want him to become overly powerful.
If you want to take the whole Glittering Gold, it is still the familiar recipe: only speed cannot be broken.
When he really takes action, he must be swift and sudden, catching any external forces off guard.
People often only see the earth-shaking nature of an avalanche, but don't notice the ice and snow gradually accumulating high, and this is He Lingchuan's late-mover advantage. What he has to do now is to safely guide the process from quantitative change to qualitative change before triggering the "avalanche" that attracts everyone's attention.
What kind of person or force is the most terrifying? Is it the one who shouts every day to suppress you? Is it the one who does countless small actions to bully you? Is it the one who takes advantage of you a little every day?
Heh, some smart people have said that if you really want to defeat someone, you'd better not let him know in advance. When he realizes the danger, your knife is already stuck in his chest.
For the Glittering Gold Plain, He Lingchuan plans to do just that; conversely, in order for the final unification of Glittering Gold to be overwhelming and unstoppable, all the preparatory work serving it is actually the main plot, right?
So far, what preparations has He Lingchuan made? First, running the Original Hometown Society.
This is not just simply winning over talents and establishing an information network, nor is it just because these people are easy to win over. Their role will gradually be reflected later.
Second, using the society's activities as a cover to infiltrate Yangshan's power into every corner of Glittering Gold.
Third, the Black-Armored Army acts on behalf of heaven, establishing the myth of the Great Emperor of Nine Netherworlds, while cooperating with Yangshan's propaganda team to carry out extensive publicity.
The above work is relatively hidden, not easy to attract the attention and vigilance of local tycoons, but can achieve the effect of moisturizing things silently.
Let's talk about the actions of the Black-Armored Army and the Great Emperor of Nine Netherworlds; some book friends say they don't want to see punishing the wicked and settling the good, and don't want to see the suffering of Glittering Gold. In fact, the appearance of the Black-Armored Army has important significance for the Glittering Gold Plain:
It breaks the superstition of the common people that the bullies are invincible, and then awakens people's instinctive desire to resist oppression, which is the so-called sowing of "fire seeds."
It also gains the recognition of the Glittering Gold commoners, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent unification of Glittering Gold, where the hearts of the people are directed and the expectations of the masses are gathered.
These are all related to wish power and meta-power, which will be mentioned in subsequent stories.
While controlling the general strategy, we must also sketch individuals. The "Glittering Gold" volume outlines many characters; let's give a shallow chestnut:
Wanqi Liang. (Compared to him is Sha Wei in the Panlong world.) When he first appeared, he was the image of a "troublemaker," brave and fierce, loving to find trouble, not at all a qualified soldier, let alone an excellent general.
Many people say that this world is a huge makeshift stage, and I think this is only half right.
Heaven gave me talent, it just depends on how to carve it:
If it is not polished well, it is a piece of scrap iron; if it is tempered properly, it is a divine weapon.
In He Lingchuan's hands, Wanqi Liang will of course become a divine weapon. Taking a point to bring the whole, I will let everyone see the transformation from Yangshan soldiers to elite troops from the "Wanqi Liangs." After that, their gathering is no longer a makeshift stage.
And the growth of a group of characters represented by him will show Lingchuan's wrist for promoting and cultivating talents without sticking to one pattern.
Besides this, I also want to explain why Yangshan soldiers are willing to fight and struggle for the Glittering Gold Plain thousands of miles away. This is a change of identity, and even more a sublimation of mentality and character.
There are many similar examples; if you are interested, you can look back; if you are too lazy to flip back, the subsequent plot will also present them.
These contents are small, complicated but very necessary; they fill the skeleton of the whole book with flesh, blood, and humanity, affecting all the causal links that have not yet happened.
But these contents cannot be independent chapters; I will let them lurk in every story, like a dragonfly touching the water, but finally, everything will fall into place.
What preparations and efforts are needed to unify the chaotic land and create a powerful empire, and what hardships and killings must be experienced? This is the history that the "Glittering Gold" volume wants to present and the question it wants to answer. As the curtain slowly opens and the people from all walks of life appear on the stage, the above answers will be like the water-text stones at the bottom of the great river, gradually revealing their true faces as the water level drops—
It has always been there, but it needs the right opportunity to come out.
Book friends always ask me, when will this volume of Glittering Gold end? In fact, He Lingchuan's preparatory work is already more than half done, and the progress of this book "Immortal" is also more than half done.
Inside and outside the book, everything is moving forward step by step.
I hope that when this volume ends, the plot, side quests, and characters will have had a full and satisfying interpretation. And the protagonist's opponents, those forces that do not want to see and acknowledge us, after crazy roaring, waiting for opportunities to retaliate, and suppressing without results, and even paying a heavy price, will only then realize in a trance that the light boat has passed ten thousand mountains, and the rise of the new force is unstoppable.
Situ Yu analyzed He Lingchuan and said that a person doing so many things always has a purpose, and he couldn't see He Lingchuan's purpose; then, Shui Yun also hopes that his own thinking and insights can be gradually passed on to every reader as the novel unfolds.
If little partners can give me a little more trust, believe that I am a serious, hardworking, and patient person, believe that I am responsible for the quality of "Immortal" to the end, if little partners can let go of their defenses, follow the rhythm of this book to move forward, and enjoy the Great Thousandfold World that Shui Yun has drawn for you—
I think our mentality will be more relaxed, and we will all have a more pleasant experience, right? I've been nagging for so long today, it seems I only answered the first focus of the debate.
The length is limited, and the second focus of the debate involves the creative thinking and philosophy of "Immortal"; if you want to explain it clearly, you have to open another tea party.
If everyone wants to see it, I will arrange it later.
I know that there will definitely be little partners who say that a long-winded tea party is not as good as writing more of the novel's main text. However, writing is writing, and communication is communication; they cannot perfectly replace each other.
Shui Yun is willing to take out a little time for eating, sleeping, exercising, and emptying his mind every day under the premise of full-time work to respond to everyone's concerns, so as to enhance communication and reduce misunderstandings.
Long live understanding, it is not just a slogan. —Feng Xing Shui Yun Jian / Jiu Fang Ye
