Complete the Pre-(fraud) Report (Fraud)
It has been a long time since I posted anything other than articles. I remember that the last "routine fortune-telling" was in early January, just before the start of "Sword God's Smile".
It was the end of the year at that time, and there were many things to do, so the Sword God's smile took two months to finish.
Because I have been writing the same script for the past two months, I think there is no need to write a preview or anything like that. If I really want to write, the preview for the two months is nothing more than "Sword God is still smiling this month".
After the Sword God script was finished, I originally wanted to write it, but after thinking about it, does "Detective Chapter 33" need a preview? The title is already a kind of preview, and it is redundant to say it.
So, in total, I haven't written a single chapter for four months.
Actually... it feels pretty good.
It seems to have returned to the time when "Ghosts Crying and Catching Ghosts" and "Selling Crimes" were serialized. In addition to the main text, it is also good to say less nonsense.
However, at this point, it is indeed necessary to write such a text. Therefore, today I will talk about all the things that have been accumulated for a long time.
First, let's talk about the progress of the novel, which you are more interested in.
I went back to the previous chapters. The first time I mentioned the ending was in October 2015. At that time, I said-"Maybe at the end of next year, "Horror Paradise" will reach the final stage."
Please pay attention to the two key points in this sentence. First, it is "final stage", not "finished"; second, it is "maybe", not "definitely".
Later, in the preview in December 2015, it seems that this matter was mentioned once. Of course, I used words like "as much as possible" and "strive" to be smart.
Then, at the beginning of 2016, I started to play games all the time, and then I took some film and television work in September, so I stopped.
At that time, I felt a little disappointed with the comments of some readers. In addition, there were more and more extra work and my health was not very good. Gradually, I wrote fewer chapters, and I could only "do my best" to update the horror.
Looking back now, I was too optimistic in 2015. How could I finish the book by the end of 2016 (laughs).
Even if I had worked non-stop since late September last year and persisted until the end of the year, I would definitely not be able to finish it.
In fact, I am very busy now. A few months ago, I was determined to finish the book in the first half of this year, but think about it carefully... Do you think I can finish the entire "S3" in two months from today?
This is obviously impossible, so... we have to wait a little longer for the thrilling ending (delay).
There can be scripts in the S3 competition, and it is reasonable for the curtain call performance to be longer. Let's set a small goal for myself and finish it with 5 million words.
OK, after talking about the progress, I believe that everyone's emotions (anger) have been mobilized, so let's talk about something else...
Today, Qidian started a fan festival or something like that. In short, there are all kinds of rankings and so on. Friends who are familiar with me know that I don't like these moths.
There is just one thing that makes me very happy, that is, I can see many readers' attention and love for me from such activities.
In today's world, it is not easy for someone to willingly and unconditionally give something to you. To be honest, I am very touched and excited that I may not be able to update today (seriously).
Anyway, thank you all, but don't think I am canvassing for votes or anything.
I still say that I don't need all those rankings, lists, and votes at the moment. I will tell you when I need them; please vote for those diligent authors who need them.
What a detective can do is to find out the truth, and what I can do is to write every chapter, every section, every sentence, every word carefully... I am worthy of your subscription and support, and my understanding and persistence in writing.
As for your support, whether it is voting, buying physical books, or sending razor blades, etc., we are all so familiar with each other, so feel free...
Well... Next, let's talk about some sad topics.
Previously, there were some problems with the copyright contract for "Selling Crimes", and the main responsibility was mine. Now, after the efforts of many parties, the negotiations have basically been completed. Of course, I don't have much say in the negotiations, I am just the person responsible (a face full of despair).
This matter should be resolved in the near future, but it will naturally cost money to resolve it.
I don't know why, but it seems that everyone thinks I am quite rich. I don't know about other writers. Anyway, I have been writing books for so many years, and my ultimate goal has never been money. I really don't have much money.
I don't live in a villa and drive a luxury car, eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day, and play games as some classmates imagine; in fact, I barely bought a second-hand house of more than 50 square meters at the end of last year, and it has not been renovated yet. My wife and I are still renting a house.
In a few months, I will be promoted to a father, and there will be more places to spend money. I estimate that I will owe the bank 1.8 million after the contract is settled.
In short... my life is not easy.
However, please rest assured... As a person with professionalism and professional ethics like me, I will never deliberately speed up the update of the novel due to personal financial pressure in order to be responsible for my work.
Okay... I have said a lot of messy things, and finally I will give a preview of the plot.
I’m still thinking about the rules of S3…
The endings of each character also need to be determined before writing. I actually thought about the fate of most of the main characters a long time ago. Now it depends on whether it needs to be fine-tuned according to the plot.
As the final chapter of “Horror Paradise”, which is “long (not) chapter (served) and huge (not) written (debated)”, S3 must be epic. We will start in May and adapt to the strong rhythm of writing (delayed) writing (updating) – starting with announcing the rules and introducing the main characters.
Well, that’s all for today. I wish you all a happy study and work after the short vacation (cut… how can such a thing be happy).
