Daming: I have a showdown, my father-in-law is the emperor

Chapter 228 Deleting the Plot
"Hey!"

Zhao Jun let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong? Why are you sighing?"

Chen Fan was almost speechless, okay, he must act like a little old man.

Is there anything you can't say directly?
"I was wondering what to do with my outline? Originally, there were still more than 200 million words of the plot, but it needs to be compressed to 15 words, so a lot of plots will be deleted."

Chen Fan couldn't help but rolled his eyes, he thought it was a big deal!

"It's simple, just leave the main plot, and delete the other sub-plots."

Zhao Jun disagreed a little and questioned:
"Wouldn't this be a little bad, leaving only the main plot and deleting all the sub-plots, making the whole plot dry and not full at all."

Although Zhao Jun has made up his mind to write another 15 words and finish it.

But he didn't want it to end hastily.

Zhao Jun still hopes to have a complete ending, even if it is too simple.

Chen Fan didn't know what to say.

You have decided to end it in 15 words, so why are you thinking so much?
What to do if the side plot is not deleted?
Otherwise, how can I finish it within 15 words.

Moreover, Chen Fan suspected that even if all the sub-plots were deleted, the main plot would still have hundreds of thousands of words.

It still needs to be compressed and compressed again to complete it within 15 words.

Seeing Zhao Jun in trouble, Chen Fan suggested:

"If you are reluctant to delete the side plots, you can delete some minor ones and leave only the important ones."

Seeing that Zhao Jun looked a little confused, Chen Fan continued to explain:
"It's like your current plot is about the top card of Chunfeng Tower. I read your outline and the male protagonist is just starting to have an affair with her! According to the outline, there are still more than [-] words about the plot of Chunfeng Tower. What kind of hero? Saving the beauty, secretly falling in love, and being jealous of Princess Changping, these plots can be deleted, and only the most core ones can be retained, and the Chunfeng Loutou card should be brought to the main plot of building the Ming Dynasty."

Zhao Jun asked with some uncertainty:

"You mean, all the plots about Yinyin have been deleted, leaving only the plot about the Propaganda Minister?"

According to Zhao Jun's outline plan, in the later stages of the novel, he will hand over the important department of the established Propaganda Department to Yinyin.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Propaganda Department is a very important department.

They are all comparable to thousands of troops.

Zhao Jun attaches great importance to media publicity.

This is the most important tool to control the Ming Dynasty's right to speak.

And Yinyin is the most suitable candidate. As the top entertainer in Daming's entertainment industry, Yinyin is definitely worthy of such an important position as the head of publicity.

Chen Fan nodded and continued:

"And according to your outline, are you planning to rewrite the plot of Daming Royal University?"

Zhao Jun said as a matter of course:
"This is natural. Education is the top priority. Men should build the Ming Dynasty in the direction of modernization. Talents are the cornerstone. The modernization of all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty also requires the participation of talents who learn scientific knowledge."

Chen Fan shook his head and admonished:
"Delete what needs to be deleted, and reduce what needs to be shortened, otherwise your 15-word plot will not be enough."

Zhao Jun sighed again.

"we can only do this."

Chen Fan was very pleased to see that his friend had listened.

"Also! Your story about the Dongshan military camp also needs to be shortened. I think you are going to use 30 to [-] words to describe the situation of the military camp training. It is too long, so it needs to be shortened."

Hey!
Zhao Jun was going to be depressed to death, and he was going to scale back again.

This Dongshan barracks is also the focus of his description.

After all, the male protagonist wants to smoothly promote the reform in the Ming Dynasty, so the use of force is inevitable.

And the thousand guards trained by the Dongshan military camp are the hero's greatest reliance in Daming.

"And this, the plot of Princess Changping will also be greatly deleted. Your outline...do you have prejudice against Princess Changping?"

Chen Fan suddenly asked.

"No! Why do you say that?"

Zhao Jun's face was full of doubts. Princess Changping was the good wife and mother he prepared for the male lead, so he could have any prejudices.

Chen Fan explained:
"You wrote Princess Changping too badly! She was seriously ill and was cured by the male lead. Not long after, she got cancer again. After the male lead cured her, after a while, she contracted the plague again. What are you doing? How can you write miserably, and say that you have no prejudice against Princess Changping?"

Zhao Jun shouted that he was wronged.

"This is also because the relationship between the male protagonist and the female protagonist will become deeper and deeper, and then marriage will be a matter of course."

Through this serious illness of life and death, Princess Changping will slowly fall in love with the hero after being treated by the hero.

Chen Fan chuckled, apparently disagreeing with this statement.

How can there be such a miserable heroine!

Can't you write some sweet love?
It was rare for Chen Fan to pay attention to Zhao Jun, and he didn't want to continue the topic of Princess Changping.

Just do whatever you like!
"Also, the plot about Huang Taiji in your outline should also be deleted. You have a back-and-forth confrontation, and then you kill Huang Taiji. This is more than [-] characters long. This is definitely not possible, delete it!"

"There is also the plot about the Donglin Party in the south of the Yangtze River, which must be greatly deleted."

Jiangnan Donglin Party is an important branch prepared by Zhao Jun.

The Jiangnan literati group bears an inescapable responsibility for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Jun originally planned to capitalize the close-up!

"There is also a section about Shanxi merchants colluding with the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, which should also be shortened."

"There is also the great businessman Zheng Zhilong. When you let the male protagonist slowly fight with him and then integrate him, this will be hundreds of thousands of words long. Cut it down, cut it all down."

Chen Fan singled out some other important side plots and encouraged Zhao Jun to reduce them all.

Zhao Jun is feeling a little depressed. This plot has been cut to pieces. Can I still watch it?

"Delete and shorten all these branches, and it can be finished within 15 words."

"Of course, the premise is that there is no plot of Ming Dynasty overseas."

Chen Fan added.

Those side plots that Chen Fan just mentioned are only within the territory of Daming.

If the plot of Daming Overseas is included, Chen Fan estimates that there will be no more than 100 million words that cannot be completed.

Conquering Korea, conquering Japan, conquering Nanyang, conquering Tianzhu, conquering Africa, and finally conquering Europe, which one of these plots is not more than [-] words in length.

This is only part of the plot of Daming Overseas.

In the end, the male protagonist will also establish the order of the Ming world.

What a global United Empire, various organizations.

Economic organization, military organization, financial organization, trade organization, cultural organization, political organization.

In order to control the whole world, the hero needs to establish so many organizations, which requires hundreds of thousands of words.

Regarding the part of the plot of Ming Dynasty dominating the world, this is not a matter of reduction. It must be completely deleted to ensure that Zhao Jun can complete the novel with 15 words.

After Zhao Jun heard this, he was in a bad mood, but there was nothing he could do.

Zhao Jun stood up lonely and disappointed, and went back to his room to reorganize the outline.
