"Liu Xu, you must find a way to handle this matter. The readers' emotions must be properly taken care of, otherwise they will really leave."
"It's not that you don't know how difficult it is to write your book. It can be said that these readers spread the word of mouth and tried every means to help you promote this novel, so you were able to publish it within two months. We made an appointment. Without them, I’m afraid you wouldn’t even have 100 collections now.”
"The teacher has told you a long time ago that you should manage your readers well in the group, but you are lucky. It has been a month and you still haven't said a word."
"Teacher, I told you, I talk every day, okay?"
"You have the guts to reveal your identity and tell them that you are the King of Yuanshi. You are just a cat fishing for fun in the group. You are really a rubbish author. Teacher, why didn't I realize that your child has such a personality? Where is the dog?" Teacher Luo also responded to Liu Xu on the phone, and he was so angry.
There is no way, who makes Liu Xu, the author, not show up. In order to maintain the stability of the group, the only person in the group who has a public identity and has contact with Liu Xu himself, Teacher Luo can only desperately help Liu Xu in the group. Talk to stabilize everyone's mood.
"The teacher said, what should I do?" Liu Xu asked helplessly.
"First of all, you have to show up, communicate with all the readers in the group, and tell them why you wrote this, why you want Uncle Liu Huang not to appear in Chapter 29, what are your reasons and purposes for doing this, and what are your considerations? etc."
"You have to apologize to the readers, if necessary."
"Finally, you have to give them support and tell them how long they have to wait before they can see Uncle Liu Huang reappear!" the teacher said.
"Why should I explain these things..." Liu Xu felt a little unhappy. He has been going smoothly recently. Not only did he break the world record, he also became the director of the library and received high recognition.
Now that the teacher suddenly asked Liu Xu to explain or even apologize to these readers in the group, Liu Xu was very unhappy.
"I just followed the original rhythm of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Why should I explain it to them?" Liu Xu muttered in his heart, and at the same time said in his mouth, "Teacher, you are also an author. You should also know that we are the authors who write novels." We definitely have our own considerations on how to arrange the plot structure, how to make the characters appear and exit, and we all write according to the outline in our minds."
"I don't think it's necessary to explain so much to the readers. They don't understand my thoughts or the beauty of what I do. They will just add chaos by chattering."
"I think we authors should firmly follow our own pace and not care about what the readers think. Sometimes if you think too much about the readers' ideas, then why write your own novel? Just throw the pen to Reader, can’t we just let the readers write?”
"Authors should stick to themselves and their own ideas, and should not care about what readers think. The more you think about readers and think about how to please readers, the more complicated your ideas will mess up the original rhythm. , what was written in the end was a messy piece of rubbish, and it ruined a novel!" Liu Xu said his thoughts loudly and without any concealment.
"..." On the other end of the phone, Teacher Luo stopped talking, as if in deathly silence.
This silence made Liu Xu suddenly feel scared and uncomfortable. He thought of Teacher Luo running around for himself, asking for help for himself, and doing various things to maintain his image in the group. He suddenly felt that he had done something wrong. What did he say? He quickly said on the phone, "Teacher, I don't mean to blame you. I was actually watching the discussions in the group. As a result, I have been confused by all the things in the group these past few days. , I don’t even know how to write a novel, so I said that!”
"Liu Xu!" The other end of the phone finally spoke, "Teacher, I don't blame you. In fact, you have made many problems that novice writers make. The teacher actually went through this in the past."
"So the teacher has a most fundamental question to ask you now. You have achieved a little bit now, so you think the fundamental reason for your current achievements is because your "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is really good. Or is it because of your readers’ support and devotion to you?”
"Which of these two reasons has made you what you are today? Have you ever thought about this issue clearly?"
"Do we still need to consider this? This must be indispensable between the two. If the writing is not good, then there will be no support at all. And if it does not get the support of the broad masses, no matter how well it is written, , It’s just for my own entertainment!" Liu Xu said without thinking.
"..." Teacher Luo was silent for a while. He originally thought that Liu Xu would arrogantly say that his handwriting was good, and then he prepared a series of rhetoric. Unexpectedly, Liu Xu didn't follow the routine when he came here. .
However, Teacher Luo is not a vegetarian after so many years as a teacher. He quickly continued, "Do you really understand this truth? But how did I find out that you actually put yourself above the readers?"
"This shows that you subconsciously don't pay attention to the readers at all. You still think that all this is your own merit and ability and has nothing to do with the readers!"
"Liu Xu, the teacher has a message for you. This is a truth that the teacher has learned over the years."
"In the eyes of the teacher, we authors are like a ship, and readers are like every drop of water in the ocean. Your ship can run wild on the sea because the water is supporting you! Then do you have any Think about it, although water can drag you, it can also overturn you completely!" The teacher said with all his heart.
"To sum it up, it's... it's... it's..."
"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!" Liu Xu was dumbfounded, and then subconsciously repeated this sentence from his mouth.
"Well...that's pretty much what it means!" Teacher Luo was a little stupid.
Is this kid a little too powerful? He obviously understood the truth by himself, but when he summarized it from his mouth, it seemed to have a completely different feeling?
It feels like you can hang yourself on the wall in the classroom!
"Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it... Very good. If you can sum up this sentence, it means that you have really listened to the teacher's words."
"Actually, the teacher also understands your thoughts. A successful author must write according to his own ideas. After all, the novel is our author's own work. And readers have too many ideas, too complicated, and too messy. If you only listened to what the readers think, then you wouldn’t have written this book, it would be completely ruined!”
"But you have to communicate with the readers. Since you have written this novel, and the readers are providing you with the power of reading the novel. Then they are your food and clothing parents. You must explain to your food and clothing parents clearly why you What do you think of writing this way?"
"Even if you can't explain it clearly, even if the readers don't want to listen, as long as you explain it, and you just need to work hard to communicate with the readers, I think the readers will be willing to understand you based on your attitude!"
"You have to remember, as you have concluded, water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. If you don't take readers seriously, readers will delete you from their favorites. It's that simple!"
"Unpretentious and boring."
