Chapter 434 Emphasize On The Disadvantages Of Our Cell Phones!
Zhongdian Chinese Network authors’ study class…
The authors were seated around a long table at noon, having their Fish-Catching Take-Out. All of them were focused on the information on their cell phones, replying from time to time.
Everyone was looking at the same group chat: Zhongdian Chinese Network Authors’ Study Group (Main Chat)!
There were more than 60 people in this group, and most of them were online now, keeping track of the information on Cui Geng’s new book.
“More than 8,000 now? Impressive Brother Cui! Formidable!”
“The role model of our generation!”
“Breaking more than 10,000 initial subscriptions is now a sure bet from the current situation. Let’s see if it can hit 15,000 for record-breaking!” “When will I be half as good as Brother Cui…?”
Most comments were bootlicking, but some were seriously discussing it. For example, why was Cui Geng’s new book so hot? Were there any writing techniques that could be learned from and be bookmarked?
This setting seemed as though everyone was possessed since most of them were in this room…
Of course, they had their reasons for doing so.
The study class was now at its second batch. There were changes to the authors attending it. The selection for the second batch was very difficult. The competition was scary.
Ma Yiqun was very vexed as well.
The authors with good results should participate in this study class so that they could help guide the others who were not as good.
The authors who were not as good should attend this study class as well to spur them on for them to improve.
In short, it seemed like almost all the authors on Zhongdian Chinese Network should come to this study class…
It was a tough call. Ma Yiqun spent a lot of effort in selecting the second batch of authors. He spent some time to appease the contestants who did not make it to this batch and placed them into the name list for the third batch.
However, some authors who had participated in the first batch continued to participate in the second batch.
Ma Yiqun hoped to achieve a kind of ‘the experienced teach the new’ effect. One-on-one tutoring would enable them to understand the Tengda spirit more quickly and master the learning rhythm of the class.
Therefore, many members of the first batch —including Cui Geng-were not present. They could only find out about Cui Geng’s real-time status through the chat group. “Ming Yuju, what was the situation like when Brother Cui was in the class? How did he improve so fast? You saw everything; can you explain a little?” an author asked curiously.
The rest of the authors looked at Ming Yu as well.
“Yes, Ming Yuju, tell us, what exactly happened?”
“I heard that Brother Cui even obtained an ‘observer’ position? He went to Tengda to do research?”
Most questions were asked by new authors.
These new authors did not participate in the previous class so they only knew that Cui Geng had obtained some insights during class, and his ‘grades’ had taken a huge leap However, they were unclear about how exactly he achieved that.
It was a great opportunity for someone who knew about it.
Ming Yu put down his chopsticks and replied after a moment of silence, “This is a long story. The most important factor should be Boss Pei’s visit that day…”
He summarized the story and iterated the entire situation.
In the beginning, everyone was in the little black room, writing profusely, comparing who could write more. The volume of updates increased, but they did not make any qualitative leaps.
Boss Pei appeared right at this moment!
Boss Pei was already keenly aware that this model had certain problems so he made a rule. The author with the most updates should take a day off while the author with the least would be sent to Tengda to receive the Tengda spirit education!
This move seemed like a simple one, but it had a deep meaning.
The wrong trend of emphasizing quantity over quality was stopped in time after the study of the Tengda spirit.
Lost authors found a goal; lazy authors were filled with vigor.
Authors who were only focused on quantity calmed down to work on the story plot; authors with no planning started to draw the outline seriously.
The atmosphere of the study class was instantly renewed!
In the end, Ming Yuju concluded: “Brother Cui wrote the hit ‘The Butterfly Game’ in such an environment. It seemed as though it was because of his personal talent and hard work and that the Tengda Group provided enough good materials. Some of them were, of course, by luck.
“However, even if Brother Cui did not write ‘The Butterfly Game’, someone else would appear because the standard of the entire website is continuously improving. The waterline is rising so this is an inevitable result!
“In short, it was because Boss Pei pointed towards the general right direction which made this huge ship turn around and head towards the normal course!”
The authors listened attentively with a look of yearning on their faces. Some of them even forgot to take a bite from the food they brought to their mouth.
Was it really that amazing?
Unbelievable!
An author could not help but raise his hand to ask. “So, Ming Yuju, what exactly is the Tengda spirit? Can it really turn something that decayed into an entirely new thing?” Ming Yu smiled slightly. “Hahaha, it’s not only able to do that. It can even turn already great things even better!
“However, it could only be understood, not said. Everyone’s characteristics are different, and the understanding of the Tengda spirit would also be different.
“Go to Tengda’s headquarters personally if you really want to know. See for yourself what the Tengda spirit looks like!”
Pei Qian took a deep breath after coming to the door of the company. He adjusted his emotions before he walked in. For some unknown reason, he felt as though he was a primary school kid on the first day of his school. He was reluctant.
