I went to Sanjiang, so I have to say a few words.
I originally planned not to write it, but as I thought about it I might as well say a few words.
This is Tian Ge’s third book, so the pressure is extremely high. After the huge failure of the second book, I have been unable to finish the third book, always fearing that it will have the same result as the second book.
So I hesitated for a long time about the choice of theme, story, and direction, but finally decided to return to technical themes.
But I don’t want to write about traditional technology, because this aspect is really poorly written. Most of them use a routine and can't write anything new. Of course, the more important reason is that I can no longer write. Everyone knows the reason, so I won’t go into it.
In addition, "Hegemony" ends in a hurry, and there is a lot of content that I haven't had time to write yet, so I was thinking about whether to continue writing after this ending. I happen to have some ideas about the future development of weapons, equipment and technology, so I will rely on this idea to write about the development direction of future weapons, equipment and technology in my mind.
When it comes to actually writing, it's a completely different story. There are a lot of things in my mind, but it's a bit difficult to express them.
The outline was revised seven or eight times, and there were more than a dozen drafts at the beginning, which took almost half a year. In the end, not only myself, but also my editing eraser collapsed.
It's easy to think about it, but really hard to do it. The difficulty lies in the coordination and control of all aspects. Technical and professional terms should not be too deep, otherwise most readers will not be able to understand them. But it can’t be too light or none, as it is too white and is no different from the black technology golden finger tattoos on the market, and there is nothing new.
There are many such tangles, and the most difficult and troublesome one is how to fight that ancient behemoth.
What's even more tragic is that just a few days after publishing the book, it faced a severe storm. To be on the safe side, I can only modify the beginning and eliminate some dangerous content.
So the early stage that you see now is modified, which is why some people wonder why there are so many drones.
Regarding this book, to be honest, I have no idea. On the one hand, I don’t know how well this book will perform and whether it can support me to keep writing.
On the other hand, I am also worried about whether I can keep writing this book.
In fact, I am very scared. I am afraid that when I wake up, this book will no longer be on the website.
Every time, my heart is in my throat.
Of course, if conditions permit, I will keep writing. The later story of this book is very grand, and I even have it divided into several parts.
Humanity's exploration of the unknown will never end, and I just want to show everyone the future I imagine in my way.
In the blink of an eye, it has reached 200,000 words, and I am on the verge of being released, and I feel extremely anxious. As a writer of a certain age, many older readers can understand the pressure I bear.
So, please give me your support so that I can have the motivation or excuse to continue writing.
Along the way, there have been too many ups and downs, and the partners who were so high-spirited with me have gradually withered away.
There are also some new faces around me, and I have become a regular among them.
Sometimes it's actually quite sad. So many people have disappeared, leaving only a bunch of words on the Internet that no one cares about.
Many years later, when someone sees these fragments of words, they will laugh and say, oh, who is talking nonsense?
Thank you, thank you all for your continued support, I will continue to work hard, and I will continue to move forward.
Time flies, let’s continue!
