Nearly four years and 5.29 million words.
Thank you to all readers, whether they are readers who followed it until the end, or readers who accompanied the restaurant during the journey.
Thanks to editor Ruoye Da and editor-in-chief Mung Dou Da.
I rested for a few days before starting to write this review. In the last chapter, I saw the emotions of many readers and was a little moved.
The book "Restaurant" is not perfect, but it still accompanies some readers for a period of time and brings some happiness and warmth to some readers. This is the greatest gratification for Qingyu.
Of course, there are many things worth reflecting on.
Restaurant has a good and interesting early and middle period, but it obviously stretches out in the later period of more than one million words.
This story should end in about three million words, which is a double satisfaction for the reader and the author. The more than one million words that follow are double torture.
Here, I still want to say sorry to all readers. I could have done better.
Set a flag for the next book: two years, three million words, finished!
Although it is not perfect, the restaurant book is still the most important book in Qingyu's life.
In mid-October 2017, I confirmed my relationship with my girlfriend Ben Xian, who was also traveling with me, and then I went home and opened the restaurant.
The restaurant will be completed in August 2021, and then we will prepare to get married in November.
In the process, I experienced being cheated when buying a house, failing to start a business, starting another business and failing again...
In this way, we have been together for nearly four years.
It takes almost as long as the restaurant to update.
I am also grateful to her for spending the past three years or so with me coding, eating late night snacks together, and becoming...mellow together.
It is often when you look back that you realize that time has passed so quickly.
But sometimes it feels amazing.
…
The restaurant has come to an end for the time being, but for Qingyu who has no other survival skills, this end point will also be the next starting point.
The new book will probably be released in December.
Can write fairy tales.
The idea is there, but Qingyu doesn’t plan to write it yet.
I haven't read much in the past few years, and the things in my mind are a bit outdated. I need to find some excellent works to study and talk to excellent authors.
It should still be a warm and interesting story, I hope it can be better.
The new book still has the same flag: two years, three million words, finished!
Three million words can tell a good story. For me, it should be a manageable number of words.
It would be even better if it could be written in a year and a half... which means the update speed has improved.
…
Finally, thank you all readers.
Let's meet again in Jianghu.
