Red Heart Survey

: Summary and Testimonials of Volume One

Volume One Summary and Testimonials

Write down the last character of the first volume of "Bright Moon in the Sky".

I tried to summarize the writing of this volume.

"Red Heart Xuntian" is my first online novel. For me, no matter where I write, my hard work and creative pursuit will not change.

Even because the network serialization requires more volume, I actually consume more effort.

Return to the Red Heart Survey of the Sky.

【In the first chapter, I obviously made the mistake of a newcomer on the Internet. I did not advance the plot and show the protagonist in the first time to attract Internet readers who are used to fast-paced novels. 】

I used more than 7,000 words to describe in detail a high-level battle that took place in the country of Zhuang, and in this battle, the protagonist was just an observer character. (After many revisions, each time one or two hundred words were deleted, now it is difficult to delete more than 6,000 words...)

The original intention of is to show part of the combat system of this world first, so that readers have a preliminary understanding of the power level of Red-Heart Survey. At the same time, bury some threads that will be used after a long time.

Grass snake gray thread and a thousand miles in the veins are the structural techniques that I admire.

Huahua in the group is also the second leader of this book. She is very nice.

She helped me summarize some issues that should be paid attention to in online articles and made some suggestions.

For example, the part of the beggar in the first chapter can be deleted.

But everyone should know at the end of the volume that the group of beggars were originally sacrifices to the bones. From the beginning of the first chapter, I buried the clues to the ending of the first volume.

As an author, I cannot directly tell her such reasons before writing this, and I am unwilling to affect her enjoyment of reading as a reader.

But in fact, what she said is something that is in line with the online literature market.

Web readers, how many clues are there for you to use only after reading hundreds of thousands of words?

There are many details like this.

So when Zhang Linchuan put on the mask, everyone suddenly realized that he was the messenger of the bones.

Does anyone remember that Miaoyu was playing for the first time in Huanzhenguan. What about the man who talked to her? Bring a handkerchief and have a cleanliness addiction. Isn’t it one of Zhang Linchuan’s symbols?

In online text reading, readers are accustomed to a glance at ten lines and rushing past them, probably not paying attention to such details.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as a reader notices this kind of surprise, my efforts will not be wasted.

Some people criticized me, saying that writing online novels is selling commodities, and online literature is commodity literature. I hope I can recognize the reality.

I admit reality very much.

There are only more than 60 uniforms so far, what is the reality that I don’t know?

Some readers admonished me that to engage in my own literary pursuits in online novels is something that I did not do until I became famous.

I fully understand the love for me in these words.

However, for a novel with a volume such as Red Heart Survey, it takes only one or two years to finish writing one.

How many two years can I try, and how many two years can I waste?

For me, if you just make two years of pure money, it would be a waste.

Because what I have always pursued is not to be a successful businessman.

I want to make money, there are many ways.

If I want literature, there is only one way to go.

Of course, this novel can't turn around even now.

……

Back to creation itself.

At the end of the first chapter, I let the protagonist play. In the first chapter, a lot of space is used to describe a Zuo Guanglie who may only appear this time.

As far as the creation of online serialization is concerned, this is undoubtedly a huge mistake.

I am now punished by poor grades.

I can’t justify my selfishness.

But I can talk about my selfishness.

——It's all because of the love of Zuo Guanglie.

Zuo Guanglie is just a glimpse of light in the eyes of readers, in order to set off Li Yi’s strength and being beheaded by a sword.

But in the world of Red Heart Survey, the protagonist Jiang Wang will live under his light for a long time.

He is a talented arrogant who only appeared in hundreds of years. He is strong, proud, compassionate, and sincere.

He only played this time, but it shone a piece of sky.

I can’t bear to take it all over.

I have to admit this mistake, but I tried to correct it several times, but in the end I couldn't convince myself to correct this "error".

I was wrong, the next one will be changed.

If there is another one.

……

【The second problem of Red Heart Survey is the slow pace. 】

I spent a lot of pen and ink on the fireworks in the world, on the details, on the little people.

There is no such great advancement that the line of sight is all on the protagonist, and so many readers have been lost.

I write Red Heart Survey, not just a story, I hope to build a relatively complete world.

Without those human fireworks, the world is not real enough.

Without those plain and lovely years, it is not enough to become a sad and painful past.

Without those knowing smiles, I couldn’t persuade myself to cry.

Don’t you need a process to build relationships? Don’t you need to run-in to build trust?

In a few words, life and death will be intertwined, and will remain unswerving until death. Can it really convince readers?

I am my first reader, and it cannot convince me in the first place.

I believe that my idea is not wrong, but maybe I should make more efforts for my pursuit.

How to use less text to express details more attractively. So as to make room and strengthen the rhythm.

This is the part I want to strengthen next.

At the end of the volume, I directly cut off many branches. Including the part of the match-matching battle between the imaginary realm and the front pen of Fang Dabeard, the main general of the city guard.

The front stroke of the big beard can continue to plump the details of the Fang family, and at the same time make his death in battle more moving. It's a pity to cut it off.

But the other branches add up, it is not very able to support the story of that period. Not exciting enough.

In order to consider the overall rhythm, we have to make a trade-off.

……

【The third problem of Red Heart Survey is that there are not enough refreshing points and not enough intensive. 】

This is a question criticized by many people.

Is it cooler? Of course there is.

So cool, but not transparent? Natural and transparent.

But not enough, not dense enough. And the protagonist is so weak.

This is where many readers are disappointed.

And for me.

I can’t convince myself that in a real world, there will be a steady stream of weak dragons to give the protagonist brainless abuse.

Let’s not talk about a world where extraordinary powers have developed for countless years, just in the real world.

When you are in high school, will it be the constant flow of elementary students who are in conflict with you?

They are often classmates who are taller and stronger than you, often your seniors, or even social youth.

When you are weak, what usually happens is how to avoid conflicts with those powerful beings, how to use your strength to fight, and how to strengthen yourself.

After you are strong, the story of pushing eight hundred miles alone may happen.

It’s not that I can’t write so coolly. In the name of God, it’s a short story that burns from start to finish. In a long story like Journey to the West, every shot of Monkey King is enough to burn.

Just looking at the sentence "push eight hundred miles alone", it’s already very cool, isn’t it?

It's just in the growth stage, it's not real enough.

This is what I understand, the reality of the world.

Some people say that in the realm of cultivation, the writing of the nine-rank, eight-rank and seven-rank in front is too immortal, and it's too much like a brain fragment.

I……

I spent a lot of thought to build a system of practice, from Youmai, Zhoutian, Tongtian, Tamron, Neifu, Wailou, Shenlin...

Along the way, every realm has a detailed description and a wonderful process. I believe it is logically self-consistent, and on this basis, I hope it is also magnificent and wonderful.

The reason why I used a few grades and several grades to explain it is just to facilitate readers to quickly understand the level of practice.

In order to pursue the truth, the realm of spiritual practice is to follow the protagonist’s perspective step by step. Before this, I am afraid that readers will not have an impression of these realms.

This point may still not please the readers, but at least it can explain that I am not like many people criticized that I ran into online novels without understanding.

I have considered the feelings of Internet readers.

……

Beyond these problems.

I think the ending of the first volume is quite perfect, so I will give myself nine points.

One point less, because there is not enough time to fine-tune it.

At the end, there were very intensive lens switching, and I managed each lens to its limit within the time frame.

There are many, many characters appearing on stage, but I have all expressed what I want to express.

Some clips cannot be split, only the timeline can be broken up. Some fragments must be coherent and can only bridge the space line.

Such a variety of characters, time lines, and space lines, I gathered them up and unfolded them in an orderly manner.

I did my best at this stage.

From the cultivator of the Censorship Division who sent a letter to him, the old gentleman who stood in front of the students, the warrior of Maple City who collapsed and jumped to the ground... from these characters without names, to characters with names and surnames, to the early Important supporting role.

Each of them has his own flesh and blood and has his own life.

Their spirit, will, love and hatred, and choice are all clearly shown to readers.

I am very satisfied.

The last time I made this attempt was to write about the disaster of the blue bird at dawn. Qinghou set up a bureau to besiege Yingli Gong, and Chu Gu was tricked into liberating the real dragon.

The Red-Heart Survey has more characters, a wider field of vision, and more difficulty than the previous one.

This kind of big-screen group drama, each additional role, is much more difficult.

But I am still done.

The improvement in writing ability is what makes me most happy.

The layout of the plot.

The truth about the history of the Zhuang State, the history of the human and aquatic races, the open vein pill and the fierce beasts, and the bones of the bones are all peeled off layer by layer.

In the end, Fenglin City sank into the netherworld, and Jiang Wangyuan left for a foreign country. This ending was already foreshadowed by the truth.

Bone's plan and Zhuang Ting's choice as a state power run through the entire volume.

As large as one country and one family, as small as one city and one person, in the context of a world of great controversy, in the collision of ideals and reality, all need to make their own choices.

All the pits filled in are tightly closed, so that the corpse can't get up.

And the foreshadowing laid down in the first chapter, I have not yet used up. The so-called Fumai Qianli, now it is only a few hills.

In the shaping of the group portrait, I think I have improved more than before.

But the readers still need to tell me what the result is.

There are a lot of characters that impress me, but I don’t know which ones are more liked by readers.

……

The last three words in the first chapter are Kaimai Dan.

Someone sprayed me: "Why did you write so much and work so hard, and finally give me a ‘open pulse pill’?"

if not?

Two dragons are fighting in front of you, both lose and lose, and explode an artifact for you, OK?

I will not give the protagonist excessive gold fingers. Although this is only a novel, it is also a world in my heart.

In a real world, you have to work hard to succeed!

As a thing, it doesn’t seem to be precious enough.

But it was the beginning of Jiang Wang's cultivation path, the beginning of the rise of human cultivation, and the beginning of this story.

I used 350,000 words to finish the first volume, laying the foundation for the world of red-hearted survey of the sky.

I am confident that I can build a magnificent world on this basis.

But I need readers to be able to support me so that I will not starve to death on the road of moving brick walls.

Many people may not know that to write an online article at the starting point, it is necessary to have the copyright of all the short articles during the serialization period of the author. This is nothing to others.

For me, it means that during the period of writing Red Heart Survey, I did not have any income other than this book.

Because my original job is to write manuscripts, columns, short stories and scripts.

I wrote about the sky survey with the determination to make less than a penny throughout the year.

Except for being lucky that I have broken up a long time ago, there is no need to consider the guilt of my partner, there is no other good news.

……

One day I saw someone in the readers say--

"The author is too impatient now. The book recommends tens of thousands of words and tens of thousands of words, saying that the grades are not good and should be cut off immediately. I really want to catch them and let them learn Ashi.

This topic is actually very sad, because so far, my novel has only four thousand recommendations. The collection just broke a thousand. They are all set for more than sixty.

I wrote 350,000 words with guaranteed quality and quantity!

And I’m still writing while lighting the lamp.

Before I wrote entities, I only wrote five days a week, and only two thousand words a day. Rest and raise your mind at other times.

Now I write at least 5,000 words every day. I haven't taken a break for more than a month.

The brain is very excited and tired.

I actually understand the authors very well.

If you regard writing novels as a simple job and business.

In fact, this is very reasonable.

Because only performance and income need to be considered.

For online essays, it is very slim if there is no grade during the new book period, because you will not have follow-up recommendations, and the sunk cost of writing it down is too high.

Cut it off, change the number, change the book. Change the number again, and then change the book. Choose the one with the best score and write it down. This is how it should be in business.

Wait for hundreds of thousands of words, it should be cut when the editor recommends it to Liangmen for the first time.

But.

If it is not just a simple job, if writing a novel is not just for making money, is it really your dream?

Sorry, I...can't cut it down.

Sorry, I told myself.

There are simple columns to write, and the deposit will be called to me in advance. There are simple hydrology to write, as long as I am willing to use this pen name and cover my head with water, I can directly publish and get the money. Not to mention the adverts that can be released just a little bit.

I have many easy paths, but I chose the most difficult one.

I put myself in the most painful situation.

Only for one of the simplest reasons.

One or many people will no longer believe the reason.

because of love.

I love these characters in my pen, I love the world I have built.

What I do, all the long distances I travel, are for the love in my heart.

For this love.

I am willing to put in more effort and wait.

……

The name of the first volume is "The moon is in the sky."

The bright moon can be ideal, it can be love, it can be hometown.
