Chapter 326: Post-Launch Remarks

Post-Launch Remarks

Finally, this day has arrived.

We have launched~!

First, thanks: Thanks to all the book friends for their continuous support, for enduring Xiao Xin's tireless requests for follow-up reading and collection, and for tolerating Xiao Xin's shortness.

Most importantly, thank you all for being able to like this book.

The first chapter after launch will unravel a foreshadowing buried for a long time, and then it will enter the stage of the college entrance examination and summer vacation. The "summer vacation" in this book will not be glossed over; it will be a specific, continuous, and wonderful story. Many subplots that were temporarily put aside due to studies will unfold one by one.

For example, the backlog of "unsealing tasks," the unfolding of the "writer line," Zhai Da's long-premeditated "entrepreneurship," and the different youth stories of different supporting characters.

As the second "urban" theme, Xiao Xin brings the 2.7 million-word accumulation of *09*, having both some confidence and some pressure.

Worried about grades, worried about homogenization with others, and also worried about homogenization with myself.

However, as time passed, the first worry was warmed by the support of readers. It didn't take off on the spot, and it was slower than *09*, but it was full of harvest. Thanks again.

The broken Dao heart of *Heaven-Usurping Record* has been comforted.

And the second worry seems a bit redundant. It seems that even if I intend to learn the techniques of other books, it will eventually become my own style, which I think is a good thing.

As for the third worry, it will take a book's time to verify, ensuring that readers who haven't read *09* will find it good, and readers who have read *09* will find it even better.

Xiao Xin often reflects on himself:

We need a whimsical cheat, and a story that is still wonderful even if the cheat is removed.

There must be a destined, stylish, and high-profile second life, and there must also be specific, vivid people around.

These two points, whether it is the 250,000 words of free chapters or the 2.5 million words that may be written in the future, I will keep in mind and spur myself.

Losing any "original intention," given the limitations of the later stages of "urban literature," could turn into a running account.

Making more money, showing off more, picking up more girls, and then looping infinitely until the readers are numb and the story loses its appeal.

Xiao Xin guarantees that this situation will not happen.

Zhai Da will walk on a completely different path, different from "Zhou Rui (the male lead of 09)," and different from most urban male leads.

This requires more writing power to support, and also requires the protagonist's growth.

I hope all readers will listen to me tell it slowly.

Highlight: Slowly...

Alright, just kidding. Xiao Xin is actually not that short. After the launch, the update volume will gradually stabilize at about 6,000-7,000 words per day, and occasionally exploding to over 10,000 is also possible.

It's just that Xiao Xin's update volume is more based on plot and quality, and it won't be stuck too rigidly.

Perhaps some readers have already discovered that our update word count actually increased in the week before the launch, with big chapters of 3,700 or 3,800 popping up, and small chapters of 2,700 or 2,800.

In fact, if it were a purely utilitarian arrangement, strictly sticking to "two thousand words per chapter, two chapters per day" would be more reasonable.

Putting it together and watering it down to squeeze out a few chapters of "so-called launch explosion" would make everyone look lively, and Xiao Xin would also look like he has face and be tough for once.

The manuscript fee would also be higher because the word count is squeezed into the VIP chapter part.

But after careful consideration, Xiao Xin still thinks that quality and reading experience are the top priority.

In the last week of closing to rush the manuscript, many words of the results have actually been put into the "free chapters" because it is the most suitable and smooth there.

Therefore... Xiao Xin's launch this time will not be too shocking in quantity; it can only be said that it didn't lose face.

Then finally, let's talk about the launch arrangement.

Launch on 1.1, but it is estimated that most people have travel plans, so the update time is set at 18:00.

Four chapters updated in a row.

There are not many chapters, but they are all big chapters; there is no need to play number games with everyone.

【This line is specifically for complaining about the author's shortness】

If the first subscription in 24 hours exceeds 3,000, for every additional 1,000, I promise to add one chapter, to be fulfilled as soon as possible.

One "Alliance Leader," promise to add one chapter, to be fulfilled as soon as possible.

If there are "Silver Alliance" and "Gold Alliance," they are 3 chapters and 5 chapters respectively.

I dare not promise any more, for fear of breaking my promise.

I would rather everyone's evaluation of Xiao Xin be: looks short, but the quality is top-notch.

Better than: writing blindly, look, he collapsed!

——————

Finally, thanks again for your support and tolerance.

【This line is specifically for expressing encouragement to the author】.

There is also a small activity for tomorrow's first subscription. The previous "follow-up reading red envelope activity" was a great success, successfully distributing dozens of red envelopes, with many participants.

Tomorrow is not only the first chapter of the launch subscription but also the first day of the New Year. Xiao Xin and the administrator discussed having a big one!

The rules are the same old rules, post the number in the comment section.

Draw three "66"s, wishing everyone a "smooth sailing" in 2025!

We will see you tomorrow at 18:00.
