Component analysis of newcomers in the first part
Let's start with the newcomers themselves. If we do a component analysis of the newcomers based on experience, we may get the following data:
First of all, the composition structure:
31% absolute rookie
57% of senior readers
12% mainstream authors
It is not difficult to see that the composition of newcomers is mainly senior readers. Most existing online writers know more or less about this circle before entering the road of creation. Of course, as a reader, for online literature with almost no limit to the entry threshold, after reading too much, they have the idea of writing their own books. There are not a few readers, and most of the writers of the gods have entered the circle in this capacity. Senior readers have innate advantages. As readers, they know very well what readers want to see. The difference is nothing more than a matter of personal taste, but this is also an innate defect of senior readers. As readers, they can choose their favorite themes at will. However, as authors, this arbitrariness is often It makes them start with too many preconceived personal colors.
Readers, as a group, may be able to determine the trend of the whole circle. However, when they become individuals to provide resources, they lack an overall view. Blindly follow the trend often only catch up with the end of the trend. Similarly, because there are too many novice works of the same type in a short period of time, it is easy to lose a popular theme. Fall. Therefore, senior readers are very critical to the choice of themes before entering this circle. As long as the theme is chosen, with its understanding of online literature and massive reading, it is not too difficult to write a good popular work.
Another structural subject is an absolute rookie. What they face is the problem that is completely opposite to senior readers. What they lack is the understanding of the circle itself and the grasp of the reader's taste. Most of these writers are interested in this platform before they start to try it. They are completely independent in the choice of themes and will not suffer. The impact of the existing trend. From a speculative mentality, this kind of attempt may be very attractive. The original network circle requires innovation and imagination, and complete rookie writers often have these two elements at the same time, but because of the lack of understanding of some successful elements in the circle, this group of writers is also difficult. Success has wasted the good theme in hand and the spirit of the newborn calf.
Another minority mainstream author unfortunately has all the shortcomings of both rookie writers and senior readers. Whether it is the grasp of readers' tastes or their ability to innovate, they are limited by their identity as mainstream authors. If they blindly enter this circle, it must be a bleak end, but this small Once some mainstream authors get rid of the shackles of their authorship, their achievements will be very impressive. With their ability to interpret words and grasp the reader's mentality, it will not be too difficult to write a popular work.
Second is the creative motivation
47% because of interest
43% for profit
10% to be famous
The creative motivation determines the future direction of the work, that is to say, the goal expected to be achieved when entering the ranks of writers, from an analytical point of view, the proportion of interest and profit is similar, occupying the absolute subject.
First of all, from the perspective of interest, interest is also divided into two mindsets: love and fun. The former will have higher requirements for the work. Repeated consideration of text modification is the most direct performance of this kind of writer, while writers who create with the mentality of writing and playing will be more free and don't care about evaluation. In order to write your favorite works. If you look at these two types of mentality as a professional standard, then they will definitely fail. According to your interests, the chance of being immortal will be very small, because these two mindsets violate the unspoken rules of the popularity of online literature. Writing speed and attention to readers' tastes are the professional quality that this industry must have. The speed can be fast, but the average daily speed should at least ensure the update, continuous and stable update, not the revision of the defects of the work. Similarly, personality is a privilege that can only be enjoyed after becoming a god. For newcomers, boasting too much personal color will only be abandoned by readers.
However, the above statement is explained from a business perspective. For writers who are interested in writing, it is not something that needs to be too concerned. Writing with interest is the initial driving force of this circle and the purest creative concept. Also for this reason, this concept can always unite only the minority group, and of course, it will also be the most loyal readership. With the increasing influence of the Internet and online literature, this concept is not suitable for becoming popular on a large scale. At this time, the writer's mentality is the key. Whether it can persist depends on the writer's persistence in interest and the sense of responsibility to readers who love their works. We regret to see that since the development of online literature, the birth of many eunuch literature is also inseparable from the lack of interest in the later stage of creation. Therefore, we sincerely hope that the writers who enter this circle with interest can more clearly understand the purpose of their creation and treat their readers more responsibly.
Writers who create for profit, we call them commercial writers. First of all, writers with this mentality must clarify a premise, that is, who their creation serves, not themselves, but the majority of online readers. Works that cannot be recognized by readers are not good works. If you look forward to yourself The work can bring substantial rewards to yourself, so persistence and persistence are not the qualities you need. Remist judgment and keen sense of smell are the abilities you must master.
With the awareness of becoming a business writer, you need to have the professional quality of a business writer. First of all, you need to accurately position yourself and correct your creative mentality. The problem of mentality will be analyzed in detail later. Professional quality refers to the attitude to learning and the ability to grasp the market. The former is in the creation. With continuous absorption and self-improvement, the development of online literature has been far from comparable to that at the beginning. Any writer, even if he is sealed, is like sailing against the current. If he does not advance, he will retreat. Even if a writer who does not grow can become popular, he will be ruthlessly eliminated in a blink of an eye. At this point, the famous writer pays more attention to it, such as blood red, who can keep the popularity of each book all the time, which is inseparable from his daily reading and absorption. In terms of the time division of typing and absorption, it is an amazing 1:5. Two hours of coding time, more than ten hours of reading and finding information. This alone is enough to be admirable. The latter is the grasp of the reader's taste and the judgment of the potential of the work. The market determines everything, and stubbornness is not the quality that commercial writers should have. This point will be further elaborated in the second part.
The most taboo thing for writers who create for profit is to be eager for quick success. If you want to rely on code words as a long-term career, then you must have enough accumulation and precipitation to maintain it. If you want to be popular for a while or a popular life, every writer who aims to make profits must think carefully. The problem.
Writing for fame basically includes the situation of the above two. There are many ways to become famous. There is no more talkative here, but the end of writing for fame basically coincides with the two, so when considering the means of being famous, it is better to have a long-term plan.
Finally, the mentality of newcomers' creation
27% trembling
21% of the eyes are uninhabited
40% is at a loss
8% doesn't matter
4% neither humble nor arrogant
This determines the space and difficulty of novices' growth. The process of novice growth is also a polishing process. From our analysis, only a few novices can maintain the correct mentality when they first enter this circle.
The characteristic of the trembling is that most of the newcomers start from senior readers. In essence, the transition from the reader to the writer has not been completed, or they blindly call themselves as a novice and maintain a low posture under any circumstances. In contrast, there is no one who is arrogant. Among these newcomers, the absolute rookie is the main component. In essence, they lack a sufficient understanding of the cruel competition in the circle, or they do not accurately judge their position and maintain a high posture under any circumstances. Frankly speaking, these two mindsets are extremely undesirable. There is no class division between writers. Newcomers and great gods are just titles. Although their influence is far different, their status is the same. Low posture is easy to be despised, while high posture is easy to be rejected. For newcomers who are just starting out, it is not a good start.
Those who are at a loss account for a relatively large part of the newcomers. The confusion at the beginning and the ignorance of the circle are the root of this mentality. This mentality is normal, but how much time it takes to get rid of this mentality to find a good position is the primary task of this group of newcomers. The longer they are at a loss, the more they will go in the future. The more detours there are. From the perspective of motivation, most of them are writers who are interested. If you don't change your creative motivation, it's not a big problem to maintain this mentality all the time.
The correct mentality is neither humble nor arrogant, so that the other party will treat you as the same object in communication, but there are not many novices who can do this. We do not force all newcomers to have the right mentality when they start their typing career, but we hope that every newcomers can find their own attitude in the shortest time after the initial grinding.
