Chapter 98: Old bull and unicorn arm (1/2)

It's going to be on the shelves.

Unexpectedly, I would write a testimonial on the shelf again in this life, and the old man was a little confused.

Just imagine-ten years ago, you were young and a good basketball player. You used to sweat and gallop on the court in countless sunny mornings or dusk with fallen leaves. You also made countless like-minded brothers and got girls’ love Cheers and praise loudly.

Suddenly, you were injured, fractured, broken leg, and then you left the court, took off your jersey, studied hard, took the exam, and then walked into society, wearing a suit and tie, working hard, marrying a wife and having children, not only long ago If you don't play basketball, you don't even have time to watch the NBA for a long time. The unique rubber taste of basketball and the ”squeaking” sound of shoes rubbing on the court are as remote as a lifetime event.

Then, on this day, there is no reason at all, and you don’t know what happened. You suddenly appeared on the court with a ”biu~”. What you are wearing is not a suit but a vest, and what you are holding is a computer but a basketball. And you are about to enter-the real game!

At that time, you must be as confused as an old bull like this.

Because although the court is still that court, the backboard is still the same, and the basketball is still the same basketball.

But the people who play basketball have changed, the people who cheer have changed, the tactics have changed, and even the rules have changed. Now basketball-it can be kicked with your feet!

This is what Lao Niu, the ”new man”, discovered when he came to the present starting point.

It is like a trilobite from the Cambrian period emerging from the deep seabed, only to find that it has become a completely new species that is completely unsuitable to the environment.

It's not just writing techniques, narrative style, story rhythm...These things have brand-new gameplay, and there are ”Golden Chapters”, ”short-term goals, mid-term goals, and long-term goals”, which are very high-end and high-end. thing.

How to slap your face, how to control the rhythm, brand-new pretending skills... everything must be learned from scratch.

Even the name of the novel is completely different from a few years ago.

Especially when Lao Niu clicked on the sci-fi section of Happy Love and found that the readers love to watch ”Shiniang, Meiman, Marvel, and Xingyue”, a kind of ”I rely on, what is this? I rely on” , What is this again?” Such a deep sense of disconnection.

So when I first thought of the idea of ​​”Forty Thousand Years of Comprehension”, Lao Niu actually rejected it.

Future cultivation, or science fiction cultivation, is not a new idea.

From Huang Yi's ”Interstellar Prodigal Son” to Mo Yan's ”Star Wars Heroes” series to Dian Xuan's ”Story of the Gods”, there have long been many predecessors trying to open up this field, even more than ”Mission Journey”. ”Classical Comprehension” is much earlier.

But to this day, from ”Mission” to ”Mortal” to so many excellent works, classical comprehension is carried forward, and the future comprehension is still...it is a waste of wood!

This shows that there must be great flaws in future cultivation, or it is extremely difficult to write, or it is extremely difficult to be welcomed by the market.

The greater possibility is that the above three exist at the same time.

No one writes, and it's not that other writers are so stupid that they haven't found such a ”creative” subject, and only the old man has discovered it.

No one wrote, because all the writers found such a “creative” subject, but after careful consideration, everyone felt that this subject was too difficult to deal with, so they gave up.

Other writers are so smart, and the veteran is not stupid.

After thinking about it, the old man decided to give up, just change the subject matter, write about the return of the hot-blooded soldier to the city, or watch a few more episodes of ”Iron Man” and ”Spider-Man” and then write about the infinite stream of beautiful comics, wouldn't it be easy ,Very happy?

however--

When one day Lao Niu found out that he was sitting in front of the computer somehow, opened the document somehow, and somehow typed out the words ”Forty thousand years of cultivation, Rust Lake, Xingyao Federation...”, Lao Niu knew ,Ruined.

Lao Niu's unicorn arm broke out again.

A unicorn arm attack is a very painful thing. It will enter into a kind of ”write even if you know you don’t make money, write even if you know it’s not popular with readers, write even if you know that comprehension and technology are super difficult to integrate together, even if you want You should write down your time, energy, and body, even if your lumbar muscles are strained, your fingers are worn out and you have hemorrhoids.

The unicorn arm is a terminal illness of the writer. Once it occurs, there is no cure.

Then there is no way, I can only insist on writing it down.
