Chapter 607: A long talk with a senior
[The original intention of this book is just an attempt at transformation]
[Old readers who are familiar with me know that I made my debut by writing entertainment articles]
[City, entertainment, harem, probably the only element related to this new book is the harem]
[Other aspects are completely new to me]
[So before I started writing the book, both the editor-in-charge and the editor-in-chief didn’t recommend that I make such a big transition]
[Especially since this is my first full-length novel after I became a Platinum Master]
[But I told them that I just turned 18 this year]
[My life is still long]
【Young man’s spirit! 】
[This is the age when you should spend your money lavishly]
[If I want to write, then I will write. There is really nothing to worry about.]
[Facts have proved that what I wrote is not bad. The votes, follow-up readings and the extremely high level of activity mentioned in this chapter all prove this to me.]
[You gave me the greatest confidence to transform! ]
[To be honest, three years ago, I probably wouldn’t have thought I would achieve this level of success]
[My parents run a breakfast shop. They used to get out of bed early in the morning, at around 3 or 4 in the morning, and work in the shop from dawn to dusk.]
[As a son, I couldn’t help much and was even a little rebellious, which caused them a lot of worry]
[After the high school entrance exam, I figured out a lot of things. I also got up early every day to help out in the store, and I realized how hard my parents worked.]
[At that time, I was thinking, if I study hard, get into a good university, find a good job after graduation, and make enough money, my parents won’t have to work so hard.]
[But that will take a long, long time]
[Three years of high school, four years of college, and maybe many more years of hard work after entering society]
[I can wait, but my parents are getting older]
[Then I thought about making extra money to supplement my family income]
[When I first started writing novels, my mother didn’t agree]
[She thought it would affect my studies and asked me not to be distracted]
[Fortunately, after the high school entrance exam, the summer vacation was very long, so I made a bet with my mother]
[From the beginning of summer vacation until the big exams after school starts, whenever my grades drop, my parents can stop me from writing novels at any time]
[So "I'm Really Not a Star" was born]
[I also went from being ranked 86th when I first entered the school to being ranked around 160th, including the 250 students who were admitted through independent enrollment, to being ranked second in the school.]
[I was lucky enough to get first place in my grade last year]
[Fortunately, my mother is open-minded and did not stop me from writing my new book because I fell back to second place in the grade this semester.]
[Otherwise you won’t be able to read this book (dog head)]
[This book will be available on the shelves at midnight on June 6st]
[There will also be a launch event pushed by Qidian, and everyone can participate. You can get lucky draw times by collecting, subscribing, and voting for monthly tickets.]
【After the launch】
【Guaranteed five more chapters! 】
【Ten thousand every day! 】
【Large quantity, enough to satisfy your hunger! 】
[At this time, some readers will ask]
[I remember you are a senior in high school this year, right? ]
[There is less than a week left before the college entrance examination, right? 】
[Can you still release more content? ]
【Everyone, please relax~】
[Not only will "Daqian Night Patrol" maintain its daily views of 10,000, but the next-door "I'm Really Not a Star" will also maintain basic daily updates and will not be discontinued]
【As for the college entrance examination~】
[Let me put it this way, if there are brothers who can rank higher than me in the college entrance examination in Qianjiang Province this year]
[Join the book club and send me a private message about your admission ticket and test scores. I will give you one if you give me one. I will immediately update 100,000 words! ]
[Also, if any of my brothers can get into a 985 university, I will post an additional chapter for each person! ]
【I rekindle my promise! 】
[Everyone, please do your best in the college entrance examination~Put more pressure on me]
[However, brothers who are going to take the college entrance examination this year, please stop reading novels these days and study with me honestly]
[It’s not too late to read it after the exam]
【above】
[I wish all candidates this year (including me) to be successful in the exams! ]
[As for other book friends, see you in the early morning! ]

"What are you looking at here if you're not typing?"
May 5, 31: p.m.
Xu Youyu had just finished typing and taking a shower, when he walked in from outside. He glanced at his two sisters who were lying in the warm quilt on the bed, then he came up behind Li Luo and saw him staring at the screen with a silly smile, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Read the chapter." Li Luo chuckled.
"Isn't this your thanks for putting the book on the shelves?" Xu Youyu glanced at the content on the screen and found that Li Luo was clicking on the thanks for putting the book on the shelves that he had just posted tonight, and he clicked on each chapter one by one to read it.
Seeing this, Xu Youyu couldn't help but roll his eyes and complain: "You are so conceited."
I have to say that when Li Luo wrote this speech about the release of the book, I felt like I was always pretentious.
For example, when it says above that he just turned 18, a lot of things in this chapter are revealed.
[Just turned 18? I don’t trust you! ]
[Don’t disbelieve it… The other authors might be joking, this one is really 18…]
[Damn it! I would have forgotten if you hadn’t told me. How can you embarrass me as a college student?]
[Ah? The author is only 18? Then he is not the same age as me? ]
In fact, many readers don’t care much about the author himself. 90% of readers only care about reading books and rarely pay attention to things in the circle.
Even though Li Luo is already very famous, there are still readers who don't know him.
After all, many readers don’t read entertainment novels, and their understanding of Rekindled may be limited to seeing this guy on the list frequently.
"Here, here, I want to see this." Xu Youyu took a look and became interested. He pointed at the part where Li Luo said he ranked second in the grade and urged him to click on it.
Li Luo fulfilled her wish and clicked on these chapters one by one to read.
[Look, look! Are you talking like a human being? ]
[What does it mean to be ranked second in the grade? The author's school is pretty average, right?]
[It is said to be a provincial key point, anyway, it is not bad]
[You got first place by chance? Send me your address and I will ask you in person how you got there by chance.]
[Are you going to let people live? You are good at writing novels, you are good at studying, and you can also write songs. Are you taking all the good things for yourself? ]
"I saw you writing the thank you remarks for the listing, how come you feel more satisfied than writing the main text?" Xu Youyu smiled as he read, "Look, people are almost losing their defense." "I always tell the truth."
"What about the rest? Are you really going to die?" Xu Youyu pointed at the part where Li Luo had flagged that he would add more chapters, "What if there really is a reader who ranks higher than you in the college entrance examination?"
"How is that possible?" Li Luo laughed, "Most of the top students don't read online novels, right?"
Li Luo said this and clicked on the chapter to which this paragraph belongs.
The next second, his expression froze.
"What is this?" Xu Youyu came closer curiously, pointed at the top picture mentioned in this chapter and asked, "Click it and take a look."
Li Luo: “…”
He clicked on the picture with an expressionless face, and a transcript was clearly displayed on it.
As can be seen from the top of the transcript, these are the second mock exam scores for Class 1, Grade 12 of Zhenhai Middle School.
The reader who posted this chapter also added the text: [With my ranking, is there a chance that Ranshen will update 100,000 chapters? ]
Looking at the third place in the class circled in red on the report card and the 57th overall ranking in the second model test, Li Luo's mouth twitched.
If he picked the guy who ranked first in the class but ranked second in the second model test, Li Luo would still have some doubts.
But he circled the third place, which immediately made it more realistic.
"Hahahahaha~" After seeing the picture clearly, Xu Youyu was so happy that he was shaking with laughter on Li Luo's back.
The two sisters on the bed curiously asked what was going on, and Xu Youyu began to share his thoughts with great excitement.
There are already a lot of readers leaving comments under this chapter, and within just ten minutes of it being posted, there are hundreds of likes.
[As expected of me, the top student in Zhenhai! 】
[Hahaha~ I guess everyone would be stunned when the God of Burning saw this]
[Ran Shen: You're not my friend? I was just kidding, are you serious? ]
[Boss, can you ask the two people above you to come and watch our "Daqian Night Patrol"! ]
[Buy one get two free, right? That’s 300,000 words in my hands, hahahahaha! ]
[There is also a student from Xuejun below, who is also in the top 100 in the second mock test]
[No... I thought that people who read online novels were all poor students like me, but it turns out that you all usually act like me, right? ]
Less than half an hour after Li Luo sent out his words of thanks for the book's release, more than a dozen top students from Qianjiang Province had already posted screenshots of this chapter.
Although not everyone can score in the top 100 in the second mock exam, they are all very impressive.
It is relatively easy to get into Qianjiang University.
If Li Luo had not been serious in taking the college entrance examination, he might have failed miserably.
"It seems that someone will be busy after the college entrance examination results come out." Xu Youyu lay on Li Luo's back and said with a smile, "It seems that the 150,000-word manuscript is a bit useless?"
Li Luo enjoyed Xu Youyu's elastic back massage, and his eyes twitched twice: "How could I have known it would turn out like this."
I can only hope that these people don't go too far.
One or two is fine, but if there are three or four, and hundreds of thousands of words, it would be a bit too much to bear.
Even if you have a memory palace, you can't squeeze it like this.
"So it will be online in the early morning?" Xu Youyu stretched and turned to go to bed. "That will take more than an hour. Fortunately, I don't have early classes tomorrow."
"You don't have morning classes, but we still have morning reading." Li Luo rolled her eyes at her, then looked at Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng on the bed, "Why don't you two go back to your rooms and sleep? Otherwise, you'll have to stay up late tonight."
"It's okay." Ying Chanxi shook his head, not giving Xu Youyu and Li Luo the chance to spend the night alone. "At worst, I won't run tomorrow."
Xu Youyu didn't care. She had to create her own opportunities to be alone. If she really wanted it, Xixi couldn't stop her.
After lying down next to Xixi, Xu Youyu continued chatting with Li Luo who was sitting at the desk: "By the way, you were really cruel in interrupting the chapter before putting it on the shelf today. You interrupted the chapter right after the incident at the ancestral worship ceremony, right?"
"It's just a routine operation." Li Luo smiled and spread his hands. "The content of the new book is relatively easy. Now that the framework has been initially built, we will start to increase the intensity after that."
"Are you going to cause trouble?" Xu Youyu asked with a raised eyebrow.
“The several cases written in the early stage seem to have no connection with each other, but in fact, the clues behind them are all connected with the ancestral worship ceremony.” Li Luo said simply.
"But I see that your early writing is quite scattered, with a feeling of hammering here and there." Xu Youyu couldn't help but ask, "It seems like you are mixing in everything."
“But if you look closely, the main plot has always been centered around solving the case,” Li Luo explained with a smile.
"I know what you mean. Judging from the content alone, the protagonist is really hitting the nail on the head."
"For example, he copied poems in Luming Academy and in the Teaching Office, and gained a reputation for his poetic talent."
"For example, he went to the Observatory and used modern scientific knowledge to deceive people."
"For example, he flirted with several female characters and explored so-called knowledge."
"But if you look closely, basically every time these things happen, the protagonist is investigating a case and needs to investigate something, so he goes to these places as a side trip."
"Then the characters from these places are naturally introduced, and there is interaction, the background of the forces is explained, and the progress of the investigation is also promoted."
"The Wenyuan Pavilion directly under the Emperor, the Astronomical Observatory in charge of sacrifices and astrology, and the Patrol Office that monitors all officials..."
"The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the end-of-year inspection in Beijing, the Ministry of Justice cooperates with the Night Patrol to handle cases, and the Ministry of Works has cooperation with the Astronomical Observatory..."
"The protagonist knows people in the Jiaofang Bureau, Luming Academy, or the Seven Star Sword Region. They are more or less connected to the above forces, or even people in them."
"During this period, there were also the demon tribes in the Ten Thousand Mountains in the south, the dragon tribe in the East China Sea, the merchants in the Western Regions, and the war in the northern grasslands."
"So far, the first 300,000 words have already clearly described the main power framework of the entire Daqian."
Li Luo actually had a little ambition when he was writing this new book.
He is very clear about the future trends of online literature, and he also knows that the best channel for male-oriented film and television adaptations is the official website of the Chinese Literature Association.
That's why, as Xu Youyu said before, he didn't focus on the single area of the upgrade line.
Instead, the focus is on the plot itself.
Xu Youyu lay on her side on the bed, supporting her chin with her right hand, and stared at Li Luo with her beautiful eyes without blinking as he talked.
She liked to see Li Luo discussing online articles with her, the way he seemed to have everything under control.
Very handsome!
She actually doesn't know much about online writing, and most of the time she writes based on instinct.
But every time when he talked with Li Luo about some plot processing, he could always analyze a bunch of theories for himself, and they all suited his taste.
After listening to Li Luo's talk about the layout and many clever ideas for the new book, Xu Youyu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but stretch out his feet and gently rub Li Luo's calf.
"Hey, now that you mention it, I suddenly thought of a very good plot." Xu Youyu suddenly said, "Would you accompany me to record it? See if there are any problems."
Li Luo was slightly stunned when he heard her say this.
Then Xu Youyu winked at him playfully, with her feet moving up along his calves.
The meaning is obvious.
"Well... I really can't do anything about you." Li Luo pretended to be nonchalant, slowly stood up and patted his butt, "Anyway, it's still early before the product goes on sale in the early morning, so I'll go with you to discuss it."
……
one hour later.
As the time approached midnight, Ying Chanxi, who was lying on the bed, suddenly realized that something was wrong and turned his head to look at his sister: "Zhu Sheng."
"Ok?"
"Are they really just there to discuss the plot?" Ying Chanxi couldn't help but wonder, "Are they not going there to do something bad?"
Yan Zhusheng blinked, looked at her sister, and then said expressionlessly: "Sister, when you dragged Li Luo to shoot the MV, was it really just to shoot the MV?"
Ying Chanxi: “…”
