Chapter 446 Reflection

Sleepless all night, Shen Xin and Xi Muhan are like this.

On the one hand, Shen Xin had to draw the original manuscript of the new chapter manga, and on the other hand, he also had to consider the lack of a detailed outline. Xi Muhan was honest and read "Steel Refined" again, looking for the thickness mentioned by Shoji Uno, and the main character. growth.

It is really difficult for different types of authors to create different works. Shen Xin once wrote online novels and knows this well.

Therefore, whether Xi Muhan can successfully transform depends on whether she breaks through herself.

As for the growth that Chuang Si Yuno mentioned, Shen Xin thought about it and had an impression in his mind, but Xi Muhan was thinking about it all the time, and he couldn't interrupt him, so he would tell her when Xi Muhan regained his spirit.

Shen Xin glanced out of the window, there was already a layer of gray light outside.

But Xi Muhan stretched his waist at this moment, and stood up from the table unsteadily.

"What's wrong?"

"Ah? Brother Xin...you didn't sleep?" Xi Muhan asked in surprise.

"You haven't slept yet, how can I rest assured?" Shen Xin sighed.

Xi Muhan blushed slightly, showing a touch of shame, "I'm sorry, Brother Xin, for making you worry."

"Is it better now?" Shen Xin asked curiously.

"Yeah. I've thought about a lot of things, and I'm very tired." Xi Muhan smiled, "But, fortunately, I have gained a little bit."

"Yeah?"

"Hmm. I was thinking, why didn't anyone say these things in the novels I wrote before? Among the readers of "Guotu", there were many people who were critical, but they didn't find faults in the thickness or growth. Later, I thought clearly Yes, because I wrote the settings of those books, I set the world view, and I can guarantee that the style is consistent. But "Steel Refining" is not. Supervisor Shoji looked at my outline from the perspective of "Steel Refining" , That's why I feel riddled with holes."

"Well. Actually, I thought so too. The work he compared should be "Smelting Steel."

"That's right. So, I spent one night recalling his evaluation, hoping to improve the work. I also came to some conclusions about the shortcomings mentioned by Director Shoji."

"Really?" Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, Xi Muhan's face was not happy, but his eyes became more determined.

"Well. Regarding the growth of the character, in "Steel Forging", Edward does not have a nirvana, and his physical skills are not the most powerful person. Why do readers feel that he is growing? This growth is not more powerful than before, but rather With the development of the plot, Edward...and Al, use their own efforts to unravel the mystery, Edward's growth is vision and mind."

"That's right." Shen Xin nodded, this was also his opinion.

However, being able to see this, or not, thinking of a solution is the key.

"Episode 11... or even shorter, must allow the two protagonists to grow... After all, they are in Xingguo,

There is a big desert between them and Amistorius. If there is no event that changes their attitude, or there is a new discovery, it will be difficult for them to make a decision to go to Amistorius. "Yan Fei explained.

"Um."

"The difference from "Smelting Steel" is that these are two hostile protagonists. Their decision should be a coincidence rather than a negotiated one. Therefore, this story must have two lines that are related to each other, but not Make an agreement with each other. 11 episodes...two lines, the length is really tight." Xi Muhan explained.

Shen Xin was dumbfounded. The two-line advancement involved the switching and arrangement of the plot, which was indeed much more difficult than the single-line.

"Then there is the sense of heaviness...I now figured it out. The sense of heaviness mentioned by Supervisor Shoji does not refer to the history of Xingguo, because pure history has no meaning. The sense of heaviness he mentioned is the connection with "Steel Refining" ...I personally think that if some of the history in "Smelting Steel" can be reflected in the rumor, it may have a good effect."

Shen Xin also fell into deep thought when she heard this.

I have to say that Xi Muhan's words are indeed very reasonable.

Although he has deliberately increased the connection between the two works in the setting, but that connection is more about the characters than the background.

"Then you mean..."

"Since alchemy has its own theory, then alchemy also has its own theory? Also, you mentioned a person in the name of 'Western Sage' who went to Xingguo... Can you describe that period of history in more detail? some?"

Shen Xin quickly shook his head, "This won't work, it will be used in "Steel Refining", you can use it as a legend, and the 'Sage's Stone' can also be recorded in the book. After they know this, they choose Cross the desert and come to Amistorius."

"That's fine too." Xi Muhan nodded.

"As for alchemy, it is also written in the setting. Although alchemy does use magic circles, there is still an essential difference between the two. Alchemy uses the power of the earth's crust, and its theoretical basis is'equivalent Exchange'. But alchemy is different. It was originally a technology produced by the emperor's pursuit of longevity. Later, the sages of the West came to Xingguo and introduced alchemy. Only then did the current alchemy come into being.

"If you want to master alchemy, you must understand the flow of matter, which is the 'dragon vein'. If the result of alchemy is to recast new matter, then alchemy is restoration."

This part of the setting, if you don't understand it carefully, it is difficult to discover the mystery.

After hearing Shen Xin's explanation, Xi Muhan came to the workbench, picked up the setting given by Shen Xin, and looked at it carefully again.

At first, she thought that this part was just about the origin of alchemy, but she didn't expect the principle to be in it, it was just about "dragon veins", which were not clearly stated.

"call……"

Sitting weakly on the seat, Xi Muhan looked up to the sky and sighed.

"Are you okay?" Shen Xin worried.

Xi Muhan shook his head, pursed his mouth, but there were tears in his eyes, "Brother Xin, it's so difficult."

"Yeah... so difficult."

Shen Xin nodded. After a night of analysis, he also found that it was really difficult to make the setting of "Smelting Steel", "If you don't want to do it..."

Xi Muhan shook his head, took out a tissue, and wiped away his tears.

"No, I just thought at first that I could do it well. But now... Maybe I really can't write it now. I really want to finish it independently, but the quality of this animation is more important. Brother Xin..."

"Um?"

"I want to ask Sister Su Han for help... If she has time and is willing to come over, I would like to ask her for help." Xi Muhan's eyes brightened.

"Huh?" Shen Xin was a little surprised.

"After a night of thinking, I think I can do a detailed outline... But what about after the detailed outline? With only a good detailed outline, some people still can't write a good novel? The style of novels I am good at, and this style There are still some discrepancies. So, I would like to ask Sister Su Han for help."

Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were scared?"

"No way!" Xi Muhan said firmly, clenched his fists, "I can do it well."

Shen Xin yawned, seeing Xi Muhan's eyes, the depression in her heart was relieved by half.
