I really want to hit the street

Pu Jie actually wrote a fantasy-type online book in his previous life. It was a clichéd sword and magic book that looked very middle-grade.

The novel is really unreadable, full of awkward dialogue that makes my toes ache.

But if it’s made into an anime, I’m not sure it will be okay.

Pu Jie put away his thoughts for a while and began to think about the next book he wanted to write.

A genuine fantasy, or rather a Western fantasy.

"Although the award mentioned by the system definitely refers to the very important traditional novel award, I took a trick and asked Teacher Wang to help me find an award that is important but more suitable for online writing. In this case, I only We need to design around this award and just customize a novel for foreign markets.”

"Customized articles are generally aimed at a certain group of readers, just like the Honor of Kings customized article that Qidian made a fuss about some time ago. In fact, apart from those who play games, there are no other readers. If I try my best to write about Western fantasy, , which can open up a larger market abroad and avoid ordering all domestic products.”

"First of all, the protagonist must have a foreign name and identity, so that it is easier for overseas readers to assume the role."

"Secondly, the social background is also set somewhere abroad. Forget it, not somewhere else. It would be bad if it causes regional blackout. Foreign countries are also divided into three, six, and nine. The east, west, south, and north of the United States each look down on anyone. , if you determine the region, wouldn’t that be limiting yourself?”

Pu Jie shook his head and refused to cause trouble for himself.

Nowadays, many great gods are opening books in the same way. They are all based on an imaginary era and redesigning regions in order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, even though they were designed with reference to the specific conditions of a certain dynasty.

Old bookworms all know which category of books are discussed every day in the Qidian comment section.

Moreover, it is convenient to sell copyrights in an overhead manner, and there will be no problem of zz mapping.

"Okay, then let's write a mysterious and attractive story in an imaginary era and region, for example."

Pu Jie looked up and thought, and suddenly saw a boy in front of him holding a copy of "The Peak of the Victorian Era".

Um?

Suddenly an idea flashed in Pu Jie's mind.

"Victorian Era. Got it! Steampunk!"

No boy can resist the charm of steampunk.

If cyberpunk is still a bit ahead of its time, steampunk is the romance in every boy’s heart.

Steam engines, pulley guns, cannons, giant ships, airships.

The key is! Many events and crafts of this period can be found in various books. Borrowing them from your own text will greatly enrich the book and create a more realistic environment of the era.

If this book is to be written as a fine article, it is natural to strive for excellence and study the materials carefully.

Pu Jie was a little excited when he thought of this.

"Finally. Finally, I'm going to create seriously again!"

Pujie sets the time in a British Victorian background similar to the 19th century. There are sufficient documents and photos for reference, and most books about steampunk use this as a reference.

For no other reason than it is a classic! Taste is right!

As soon as the taste comes out, it is like the translation accent, which makes people instantly fall into the drama.

Pu Jie thought about it for a while and felt that the content of the book must be very popular among foreign readers.

After all, compared to the ancient Chinese culture, they can better relate to the Western culture such as the First Industrial Revolution, which they understand more deeply.

Pu Jie does not make any comparison between the two cultures. In the final analysis, he is just a bad writer of online articles. He can write wherever he needs to use it. If the domestic environment does not allow him to write about strange powers, chaos, gods, and firearms, He would naturally let the protagonist hunt ghosts in a country where he had a good life, and have sex in the land of free America.

Oh no, shoot.

"After the general environment is designed, we need to consider what kind of power system, various characters and plots to design."

Before starting a book, you need to write a very detailed outline to ensure that the quality of the book can be maintained to a large number of words.

We have seen that many books collapse after a few hundred thousand or one million words. This is because they did not design an outline that can cover millions of words.

This book by Pu Jie is going to win an award, so it must be designed carefully.

World view, power system, characters, cheats, opening angle, and writing style.

These need to be considered carefully.

Just like when I was writing "Urban Dragon King's Son-in-law", it would definitely not work if I just open Word and do that.

He must be sophisticated enough to win this task. His book does not even need to be updated with more than 10,000 words every day. The only way to do it is to polish it carefully. Just think about it. The official award will definitely not Awarded to a no-brainer.

Cultural export should also export some tasteful culture.

Do you think teaching "NMSL" to foreigners will get official recognition?

Obviously not!

Designing these plots is a complicated job and cannot be done overnight. Pu Jie scanned the study room again and found no suitable inspiration. He could only sigh and prepare to go home and watch more European and American movies to find inspiration.

Pu Jie left his seat and patted the buddy in front of him on the shoulder: "Classmate, can you sell me this copy of "The Peak of the Victorian Era"? I'll pay 200 yuan."

The male student frowned slightly: "Classmate, the school is here to learn, not to show off. If you ask me to borrow it, I may give it to you, but I'm sorry, what I despise most is this kind of treatment of knowledge. Attitude."

Pu Jie was in awe!

Then he used the multi-fish working method.

"300?"

The male student's face flushed: "Knowledge is priceless! You are insulting me!"

"500 yuan!"

Male student: (｀д′)

He glared at Pu Jie with a righteous look, stuffed the book into his hand, and opened his WeChat payment code.

"Student, you have to remember! I don't care about the 500 yuan, but I appreciate your tireless spirit in dealing with knowledge!"

Pu Jie nodded and swept the money over: "I can see that you are very principled!"

"Huh~"

The male student walked out of the classroom straight, his back straighter than anyone else.

If you don't know, you might think he is playing a spy who swears to die and refuses to obey!

After getting the book, Pu Jie went to the library, holding the book and studying it carefully, first extracting some knowledge.

If there is any information that needs to be found, you can also read more in the library.

Inspiration comes from reading and seeing, not out of thin air.

6 o'clock in the afternoon.

Pu Jie rubbed his head and put away the books on the table.

"It's too big. There's too much to sort out."

"Unfortunately, I still haven't found a good power system, nor a refreshing entry point. It's a bit too rustic to always start with the academy."

The fantasy articles on Zhongshan International are all about academies and magic, which is a bit aesthetically fatigued.

"Oh! Don't rush the outline design, just take your time."

At this time, Pu Jie just stood up and was about to borrow the basic book he had just flipped through, and he received a voice call.

It was from He Mi.

When the call was connected, there was a burst of cheerful laughter.

"Hehehe~ Pu Jie, your clothes are dry, I dried them for you with a hair dryer, come and get them? I'll wait for you at the bottom of the library."

Pu Jie thought about it, it was time to eat, so he agreed.

"Okay! I'll be there soon."

Downstairs.

Under the faint sunset, He Mi stood among a group of young and beautiful girls, holding a piece of clothing and a brown-black iron box.

She pulled Pu Jie to the side, looked at him pitifully and said:

"Pu Jie, we are going to play tarot cards together tonight. They all have boyfriends, but I don't. I rarely talk to boys and don't have many acquaintances. Why don't you pretend? Otherwise, I will be embarrassed."

Pu Jie waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it, you guys go play. I have something to do later."

He Mi used two big bears to hold Pu Jie's arms and said coquettishly: "Please, please~"

Pu Jie wiped the red on his nose, looked up and said: "Then it's a deal, I will play with you for a while and then leave, and I will go back to live at night."

"Okay!"

He Mi: ヾ(▽)ノ

Pu Jie shook his head. He felt that he might have thought too much again. What little thoughts could such a simple girl have.

When several people walked out of the school.

A tall boy with a big ball on the basketball court said, "Mingzhe, look, is your girlfriend among the group of girls who just left the school? She seems to be holding someone else's arm."

Mingzhe glanced casually, but didn't see clearly.

He smiled and said, "How is it possible? Mimi just told me that they will celebrate their birthday together in the dormitory tonight. They are all girls. Mimi is so simple that she can't even lie. You must have seen it wrong!"

"Oh, maybe I'm dazzled. Come on, Mingzhe, let's continue!"

"Okay!"

Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, Mingzhe lowered his green baseball cap a little bit more.

"This damn sunlight is so dazzling."
