The way for newcomers to become gods

The road to becoming a god

Ind introduction

Now there are more than 60,000 authors at the starting point. For a newcomer, it is difficult to get out of the encirclement of these 60,000 "enemies" and become a front-line author and a "god" among other population. However, it is not impossible. As long as you are willing to work hard, you just need to find Right method.

The efforts of newcomers are not beyond the control of the editor, but it is okay to find some tips to help newcomers in terms of writing skills and update tips. Next, we will talk about the newcomer's road to becoming a god from the two parts of Wang Dao and the Kist.

Wang Dao's story is how to effectively improve the quality of the work. The quality of works is the basis for becoming a god. If there is no work that can be obtained, then no matter how you package and publicize it, the popularity is false and short-lived. Only when you really write a good book can you retain readers and establish a position in the circle. The trick article focuses on the story of updating skills, advertising, and the use of all available resources, including even some small plots. The reason why the trick is just a trick is that it is born from the king. If the quality of the work is lacking, no matter what strategy is used, it can only get very little benefits. It not only can't become a real god, but also harmful to long-term development. However, if you can have a medium degree of creative strength, use reasonable means, try your best to package and publicize the work in place, coupled with the accumulation of time, it will be a matter of time for newcomers to become gods.

The following content is aimed at some social experience, which can smoothly express what you think, and the newcomers who are not very familiar with the starting point. If you are a kindergarten child who lacks experience at all, please grow up quickly and read this article in middle school. If you have a headache about composition and can't write fluent sentences, it is recommended to write a diary for a few months, or find a friend of the opposite sex and write hundreds of love letters. I believe that the text will come. The level is enough; and if you are already an old author, some of the most basic introductions in this article can be skipped directly.

I. What to write for

As an author, before writing a book, you should first clarify what you want to write and what you want to achieve. This goal does not refer to how many clicks, recommendations, collections, subscriptions you have at the starting point, but can also be published, what awards you have won, Liufang Baishi, etc., or the goal can also be to make yourself happy and give yourself a vent...

After determining the goal, you have to go firmly in the direction of the goal, regret halfway through the writing, and reset the goal. This is OK. But if you look left and right while writing, it is clear that you want to write what you want to write, but you still expect to make money, or if it is a commercial novel, but you have to add personal preferences and just want to be happy, basically there will be no good result.

Here, it must be noted that this article is aimed at authors who aim to make money at the starting point. If you set other goals, it is completely okay. The starting point welcomes such authors, but this article is not suitable for you. And if you focus on money, then read this article carefully. I believe it will be helpful to you.

II. What books can make money

Now that you have set a goal to make money, you should first know what kind of book can make money?

Here, first give a seemingly irresponsible answer: only books that readers love to read can make money. Maybe someone will say, isn't this nonsense? It is true that this sentence is nonsense no matter how you look at it, but in fact, as long as you put it another way, the problem will be easier to analyze.

Before answering the question, first of all, it must be clear that the readers mentioned here are limited to network readers and starting point users. A more accurate statement refers to starting point vip members. Only the books that this kind of people like to read can make money. Of course, it should also be mentioned that there are many works that are very miserable at the starting point, which does not mean that no one likes to read them. For example, it also has a lot of market space. However, its reader group and user group at the starting point are relatively small, so the popularity at the starting point is relatively bleak.

Having said so much, what exactly is the starting point reader's favorite to read? In fact, this is nothing more than the following two points: first, vivid and interesting stories, twists and turns and strange plots; second, let the reader have a strong sense of substitution, and then feel refreshed, which is commonly known as YY. Among them, the second point is more important and occupies a mainstream position.

A good YY work must first be a work with a strong sense of substitution. Only when readers regard the protagonist as themselves can they feel breathed when the protagonist is humiliated and feel refreshed when the protagonist is powerful. The YY spirit in the work can be reflected to the maximum extent, so that readers can get the greatest pleasure in reading.

Although many works seem to be that the protagonist is also soaring with good luck and strength, there is no such refreshing feeling when reading, largely because the character's sense of substitution is not strong enough. Traditional martial arts novels are a typical example. In this kind of work, the protagonist is often handsome, has unique skills, has a beautiful woman, and can punish the bully angrily. According to reason, there are so many YY elements, and it is difficult for the work not to be popular, but the decline of traditional martial arts is a well-known reality. A big factor is the sense of substitution of the character. The protagonists of traditional martial arts novels are born in ancient times, and their thoughts and behaviors are completely disconnected from modern people. It is difficult for people to imagine themselves as the protagonists of the story.

So how can we enhance the sense of substitution? This requires certain skills, and for newcomers, the simplest and easiest thing to do is to avoid involving elements that will affect the sense of substitution, and try to blur the details of some irrelevant topics. I once saw a post in the forum asking how suitable the protagonist's height is. An old author's reply is very classic - "One person is tall". At first glance, this is nonsense, but in fact, it is deeply in line with the essence of YY. No matter how high the protagonist is, it will make some readers feel that it is inconsistent with them and difficult to substitute, while the simple and universal "one-person high" is a golden setting. Whether the protagonist is high or low, readers can replace it well.

If you can't understand it, you can say it more clearly. At the starting point, the mainstream readers of reading books are men in their teens to twenties. For newcomers, it is easier to set the protagonist to such an identity. A student in modern society, or a fledgling job hunting, pay attention, the gender must be a young male! If you take a woman, a middle-aged uncle, or all kinds of strange things - such as kittens, puppies, saplings, and small stones as the protagonists, 90% of them will be servants.

If you must take the unpopular route and write these unpopular protagonists, then the only way to save is to transform. The heroine gives her the opportunity to transform into a man, a non-human protagonist, so that it can have a human body, at least temporarily disguised as a human. But in any case, it is the king to directly set the protagonist as a male human. If you deviate from the track at the beginning and don't want to rewrite it, the easiest way is to change the protagonist. If you originally wrote about a woman, then lean the focus of the story on her boyfriend and describe the story from the perspective of his boyfriend. If you want to write about a kitten and a puppy, find an owner for it and focus on its owner to unfold the story.

In addition, there is another trick that can enhance the sense of substitution, that is, to design a harmless bad hobby for the protagonist of Gao Daquan, or an insignificant small defect, and exaggerate it. For example, setting the protagonist as a road idiot and often gets lost, which is not only conducive to leading to new stories, but also allows the high protagonist to walk off the altar. While maintaining the light, it also looks more approachable.

After solving the problem of substitution, it depends on whether the development of the protagonist and the direction of the story can make the reader feel refreshed. This is also the most critical place for the success or failure of the novel, because at this time, the reader has regarded the protagonist as himself, and the protagonist's every move involves the reader's heart. If the protagonist is angry everywhere. How can you expect the reader to read it, let alone let the reader pay for it? There have been many unsatisfactory things in readers' lives. They come to read books for temporary leisure and temporary spiritual pleasure. Why do they sacrifice their precious spare time and hard-won money to find suffering?

Here, I have to remind you that the psychological endurance of current readers has become extremely poor. They are quite fragile. If the protagonist suffers too many setbacks, then the reader is bound to rebound. If there is a plot in the book where the heroine's chastity is taken away by others, the reader will inevitably run away most of it, and the rest A small half will keep shouting and scolding. For a commercial novel, it has come to an end.

I have said a few factors that should not be asked, so what are the readers who like to read? It's very simple. Think about what wishes you have, what kind of wishes your classmates, colleagues and friends around you have, and let these wishes come true is what the protagonist should do. To sum up, it is nothing more than adventure, upgrading, treasure hunting, picking up girls, making a fortune, deceiving and helping others.

Adventure is to arrange special luck for the protagonist to get special benefits. This can be material, such as the secret of falling off the cliff in traditional martial arts, or immaterial, such as meeting an excellent old man after falling off the cliff...

Upgrade is to keep the protagonist stronger. Even if the protagonist's strength does not need to change, you can add a description of the protagonist's practice from time to time, and then mention that the protagonist feels that his skills are a little pure, or his skills are more skillful. In fact, such a description is not necessary. It can be deleted from the text, but with such a paragraph, the attractiveness of the work can be more or less increased.

Treasure hunting is somewhat similar to the adventure mentioned above, but it focuses more on material acquisition and more conscious behavior. Don't be afraid that the protagonist has more money, and don't think that the protagonist has more treasures. This kind of thing is better. Moreover, the protagonist Debao can show off in the future, and can also give some secondary treasures to others and be thanked by others. It is a good YY point. However, one thing to pay attention to is that although more babies are better, try not to let the protagonist get too much at a time. Because no matter how many treasures the protagonist gets at a time, it only constitutes a YY point. If you write too much in one breath, on the one Hand, it will waste the future YY points, and on the other Hand, it will create an impression that the treasure is worthless and rare.

In terms of picking up girls, many authors have a misunderstanding that only by writing stallion books can there be a future. The protagonist must see one by one and pick up one. In fact, stallion writing is a low-class method. Although the public version performs well, the subscription is generally not very high. For such works, readers seem to prefer to read free chapters rather than pay to read them. And the harem works are very different. In the stallion book, the protagonist sees one by one, while in the harem, the protagonist sees one by one, always maintains an ambiguous relationship, and does not go to each other. Just like the cost of cleaning in a brothel is higher, the beauty in the novel is the most valuable and the most anticipated by readers before the protagonist really gets it. They will guess when the protagonist can deal with this beautiful woman and when he will have sex with her, and such speculation will generally turn into a subscription. Note that keeping the protagonist and the beautiful woman maintain an ambiguous relationship does not necessarily mean that the protagonist loves one by one and chases the other. It can be completely that some beautiful women chase the protagonist upside down, or the beauty and the protagonist don't look at each other, but fate always arranges all kinds of embarrassing coincidences. Such diversity will have a better effect.

Getting rich is similar to the treasure hunt above, but it pays more attention to the acquisition of money, and more urban works appear. Because it is a little repetitive with the previous article, I won't say more here.

Bullying is when the protagonist knocks down the enemy and tramples it under his feet. The enemy here can be the most ordinary roadside gangster, whose strength is less than one hundred millionth of that of the protagonist, or the creator of the universe, whose strength is 100 million times that of the protagonist. To describe the scene of bullying, you must pay attention to one thing, that is, to portray the enemy well. This is a very important point, and it is also a point that many newcomers tend to ignore. Only when the enemy is portrayed and the protagonist knocks him down will the reader feel refreshed. Otherwise, no matter how the protagonist toss around, readers will feel that he is crazy. There are two directions to portray the enemy: one is to portray the other party more ugly and make the reader hate him. When the protagonist ** him, the reader will feel happy; the other is to describe the other party as extremely powerful, which makes the reader feel that he is an unsurpassable existence. When the protagonist defeats the person, the reader is more enjoyable.

Helping others, this looks very funny and seems to run counter to the YY gist, but in fact it is not. Helping others means getting praise and gratitude from others. Imagine the scene where the protagonist throws out some unwanted garbage, other people's big brothers, benefactors, and bosses keep shouting, and even kneeling on the ground with tears and saying that they want to go back to set up the Imternal card. The excitement brought by YY is not necessarily weaker than the protagonist defeating the enemy. If you want your work to be more popular, you should also use this method.

III. What theme to choose to write

The above is the overall characteristics of selling good books. So, what kind of theme can you make more money by writing? What kind of topics will be easier to write? This section will analyze this problem in detail.

In fact, no matter what kind of theme it is, as long as the strategy is right, it can be sold, but the degree of difficulty is absolutely different. Some themes are written casually and will not be too miserable, while some themes require master-level skills to show their attractiveness. So what exactly is more attractive to write? The editor believes that among the topics that are easy to write and hot, it is a wise choice to reasonably examine the author's own level and characteristics and choose the theme that is most suitable for his own performance.
