this novel is healthy

Chapter 1135 Author’s Criteria

After having such an idea, Liu Xu did not delay and immediately returned to his own world of Qin and Han. At this time, the world of Qin and Han had already entered into the mighty great voyage and the great movement of opening up wasteland in the west. , the whole world is full of vitality, and everything is in a state of competition.

But these are not the point. The point is that the time in this world is ten times longer. Half a month in the common people's world is one hundred and fifty days in the Qin and Han world, which is enough for Liu Xu to write a new book.

What, you ask why Liu Xu didn't just code in the White Elephant World, but had to run back to his own Qin and Han world?

You will know this later, so we won’t discuss it here.

The first thing Liu Xu did when he returned to his home world was to immediately call his beloved Prime Minister Zhuge to his side and consult with him in detail about this new novel. After writing the novel for so many years, Liu Xu naturally understands and understands the various rules in it very well. He knows the biggest problem of this novel, which is how to let readers quickly build up an understanding of this new novel and establish a strong character. image.

Because if you want to successfully reflect a character in a novel, the reader must have a deep impression of the character. Otherwise, it will be difficult to reflect the character, or the image will be very distorted, which is far from the ability in the novel. This One point is the same for writers of any level.

Moreover, the more bizarre the world view of a novel is, the more difficult it is to see in real life. If there are even no novels with similar themes, it will be more difficult to create it.

For example, an author wrote a prehistoric novel on the earth. Because the prehistoric novel is already everywhere, readers already have mature character settings and power systems in their minds, and they also have an understanding of the level of saints, so As long as a newly released Honghuang Wen has enough world power, it can reflect the author in the Honghuang Wen.

But if this author writes a completely new worldview with a power system that has never been seen before and a completely innovative character, then it will be difficult to reflect the characters in this novel. To put it bluntly, the impression on the readers will not be deep, and in the eyes of all readers In the collective impression, this role and power system are very indifferent.

Of course, as long as you read a novel, you will be more or less deeply impressed by one or two characters in it. Generally speaking, these two characters are the male and female protagonists in the novel, or they may be coupled with a major villain. And so on, these are very easy to mirror characters. When most of the contracted authors fight, they will mirror their own carefully drawn protagonists to fight. There are few authors who will mirror other supporting characters to fight.

Because readers have almost no deep impression of these supporting characters and it is difficult to reflect them.

At this point, I have to talk about the specific evaluation of some authors' writing skills. Although there is never any specific standard for this evaluation, as long as you are an author, you will more or less understand the truth, that is, if a novel contains There are enough impressive characters, the characters are three-dimensional enough, and even every supporting character is vivid and memorable, then this is a very outstanding novel, definitely not one written by ordinary people.

For an ordinary author, a novel would just create two or three characters with a male and female protagonist and a villain. For example, most online novels nowadays...are below this standard line, and there are very few novels that can successfully create a three-dimensional and impressive male protagonist.

An excellent author can successfully shape the entire protagonist group or the people surrounding the protagonist. There are only about one thousandth of such novels in online novels. The most typical examples are Chen Dong's trilogy and The biggest "Infinite Horror" and so on.

Not only in the novel, but also in the post bar, the barrage on Station B, and in various comment areas, you can see discussions about the characters in these novels, as well as various famous memes surrounding these characters, etc. These are the whole The protagonist group has outstanding distinctive characteristics. The top author can make there is no unmemorable character in the whole novel, and such novels are among the four great classics of China.

Not to mention the Twelve Beauties of Jinling in "A Dream of Red Mansions", maids like Grandma Liu, Qingwen, Xiren, and Yuanyang are also deeply remembered.

"Water Margin" is even more powerful. When I was collecting Water Margin hero cards as a child, I almost memorized all 108 generals.

Not to mention "Journey to the West". How many games and movies have been supported by a "Journey to the West"?

The most powerful among them is naturally "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Not to mention those top-level generals with a force value of 100, the full text alone is less than 100 words, and the general Pan Feng who didn't even get a line is also No one knows it, no one knows it.

Just how many characters you can remember in a novel doesn't tell you how good the novel is.

Ahem, let's get back to the topic. After saying so many seemingly nonsense things, there is only one truth that I want to explain clearly, that is, if Liu Xu writes a new novel now, he may indeed be able to create one or two, at most That is to say, there are several masters of Xiaotian World who are impressive to readers and can be reflected.

But what Liu Xu needs is not a few, but dozens or hundreds. This is too difficult for Liu Xu. What kind of person is he? A history student who temporarily changed his job as a writer to write a book "The Romance of the Gods in the Late Qing Dynasty" It's okay for a rubbish author who is already desperate to give up some novels based on historical context, but if he really creates a completely innovative novel, he will also have to create dozens or hundreds of impressive little worlds. It is simply impossible for the Lord to come out.

Liu Xu understood this, so he immediately found Zhuge Liang next to him, then hugged Zhuge's father's thigh, and begged Zhuge's father to give him a tip, so that he could make dozens or hundreds of achievements with such a book. The novel of Xiaotian World Master is out!

Originally, Liu Xu's purpose was to hope that Prime Minister Zhuge would ghostwrite for him and write a novel like this for him. After all, the Prime Minister could write such a famous story as "Master", so writing a novel seemed to be a piece of cake.

In addition, Liu Xu also really considered asking Zhuge Liang to give him ideas. After all, novels rely on talent, not ideas.

As a result, Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and then said with a smile, "My lord, may I ask how effective your "The Romance of the Gods in the Late Qing Dynasty" was? Do all the generals in the novel have the power you set?"
