Waking up, Lin Shu found himself transmigrated to the interstellar era, becoming the youngest son of the prestigious Lin family on Imperial Star... The next day, the Lin family found their real you...
Chapter 108 108 The Current Situation is Unstable at the Beginning
Chapter 108
Lin Shu also saw the post on Star Network.
He carefully counted the four articles he had written. Except for "The King of the Talent Show" which had a relatively calm beginning, the other articles almost all faced various doubts.
Lin Shu thinks this is a physical problem.
Cheese Bean comforted him, saying that every famous writer in the online literature field had experienced bloody battles during their rising period.
A great god who has not been tempered is not a true great god.
What’s more, Lin Shu’s first period on the gold list was too long.
Ever since "Cooking Food" first topped the charts, he never gave other authors a chance.
Joda's works have been popular for a long time due to their sadomasochistic themes, such as "Amnesia", which have been on the charts for a long time, but Joda's diligence is far less than that of Teriyaki Chicken Legs. At least other authors still have hope.
But what about teriyaki chicken legs?
Not only did he publish one article after another, and even though he was already a top author, he was actually more diligent than ordinary authors. When "The King of Talent Show" was at its peak, all four of Teriyaki Chicken Legs' articles were in the top ten of the gold list. The scene could only be described as spectacular, and many authors could not help but be speechless when they saw it.
That's enough.
Judging from the speed at which Shaojitui writes articles, it is not difficult to imagine that one day in the future, the Jinbang may be dominated by many of Shaojitui's works.
It's really despairing.
The authors may not have the intention to suppress Teriyaki Chicken Legs, but no matter what, it has always been at the top of the gold list, and there will always be people who are dissatisfied.
…
But Lin Shu has no intention of changing his writing pace because of these reviews. Some articles can be written faster, but some articles really cannot be written faster.
From the very beginning, "The Wind Rises in the Green Ping" was not positioned as a refreshing novel.
He plans to write slowly.
After scrolling through the comments briefly, Lin Shu even saw some comments like "Are you being perfunctory with your teriyaki chicken legs because you make too much money?" He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
If he really wanted to be perfunctory, he would never have opened this article.
Since he started writing, Lin Shu has accumulated quite a number of readers. He naturally knows what topics readers prefer. From the perspective of income, he has indeed made a lot. But no matter what, since he started writing "Cooking Food", Lin Shu has always written the works he wanted to write.
When it comes to writing, it is absolutely impossible to do it without money, otherwise the author will starve to death.
But without love, it is difficult to persevere to the end.
Lin Shu temporarily put the posts on Starnet behind his mind and began to devote himself more and more to the creation of "The Wind Rises and the Green Ping".
Although from the reader's perspective, this article is too straightforward, as if Lin Shu just randomly copied a few words from somewhere and stuffed them into the article, but Lin Shu himself put a lot of effort into it.
Besides, this article itself is not a gorgeous subject.
…
Xiao Nian intends to live together with his girlfriend and find temporary peace in the turbulent times. However, how can a person seek peace in troubled times?
Although the smoke of gunpowder had not yet reached the small town of Puzhou, it was gradually getting closer.
Prices are rising day by day, but the things that can be bought in shops are getting less and less. Even families like the Xiao family, who have never worried about food and clothing, can clearly feel that life is different from the past.
Before Xiao Nian had time to leave, dark clouds had already covered the sky over Puzhou.
"The first sound was the sound of artillery shells."
"Everyone ran out like crazy. The winter in the north was extremely cold. Xiao Nian's vision was blurred by the heat from the crowded crowd. He didn't expect that even though he had already bought the boat ticket, the war would still come to him. But Xiao Nian couldn't care less about running away at this moment. He had to find Liang Wan."
"He had walked this road often before, but he had never felt it was so long. Xiao Nian wanted to squeeze forward, but he was just a weak scholar, how could he stop the crowd rushing forward? He was almost pushed forward by the crowd, and the more panicked he became, the more confused he became."
"..."
"..."
"Xiao Nian knocked on the Liang family's door. His breathing was rapid and his heartbeat was many times faster than usual."
"The Liang family is no longer the one he is familiar with. This house that is so common in Puzhou City, the bluestone road under the courtyard wall, the peach tree where he and Liang Wan often chatted, the door threshold, the blue tiles, the white walls... are all in ruins now."
"Xiao Nian also saw two familiar figures. One... he could recognize it as Liang Wan's mother. The other... although the face was blown to pieces, he could still recognize it as the May Fourth uniform commonly worn by teachers and students of Puzhou Girls' School. Liang Wan often wore it and smiled at him brightly."
"Although her name contains the word 'Wan', her personality is not gentle and docile. Usually when they quarrel, Xiao Nian usually gives in to her... Xiao Nian's tears welled up in his eyes. Looking at the tragic scene in front of him, he finally couldn't help it. He pounded his hands on the ground and burst into tears."
"But at this moment, he is not the only one crying loudly?"
"The city of Puzhou was drowned in the blood and tears of millions of people."
"Howling, running, screaming... Xiao Nian had never heard so many sounds in his life. They were mixed and chaotic, and filled with deep sadness."
"He regretted not going to America sooner."
"Liang Wan's smile and voice appeared before his eyes. What the two of them had done and said, as well as Liang Wan's frowning face as she worried about the current situation... all were clearer than before."
"..."
"When Xiao Nian returned home, his parents and brothers were already waiting for him. Xiao's father had a wide network of contacts, and he asked his friends in the government to help him get a ticket. The train was intermittent, but it was still able to continue running. Seeing that Xiao Nian came back so late, his parents urged him to hurry up: "Let's go to Shanghai. Your uncle sent a letter a few days ago, asking us to go to him."
"Xiao Nian seemed to be in a daze, as if he had lost his energy and spirit."
"I won't leave." Xiao Nian said stubbornly.
""What did you say? ""
"I'm not leaving."
"Liang Wan died here, and Xiao Nian's soul also stayed here with her."
As the new chapter is completed, there are more debates about "The Wind Rises in the Green Ping".
The most talked about thing is that the male protagonist Xiao Nian is very unlikable.
[He is in a much worse situation than Sun Wulin. Lu Qiong is not as cowardly as him, right? ]
[…It’s already four chapters. If I were to summarize, Xiao Nian seems a bit useless.]
[+1, and if you want to talk about sadomasochism, I don’t see where the sad part is in this story, I can only look forward to the sequel. ]
In any case, teriyaki chicken legs still have a base of readers.
But compared with the previous few articles, "The Wind Rises in the Green Ping" does have an unstable start.
Although the discussion in the author circle was not heated, some people vaguely speculated that "The Legend of Zu" might not be able to smoothly take over "The King of Talent".
"The King of the Talent Show" topped the gold list less than a week after it was released, and has never left the list since then. No matter how many new and old masters have written a circle of works, "The King of the Talent Show" still stands high at the top of the online literature circle.
Although it is still a bit early to talk about the gold list now, but comparing the clicks of the first few chapters of the two articles, "Wind from the Green Ping" is not even half as good as "The King of the Talent Show".
The key is word of mouth.
Since the serialization of "The King of the Talent Show", the keywords surrounding this article are "youth", "dream" and "hope". Readers are willing to follow the serialization because "The King of the Talent Show" is creating dreams for readers, but the opening of "The Wind Rises in the Green Ping" did not give readers such a feeling.
Who doesn’t like to read articles with dreams in mind?
"The Wind Rises in the Green Duckweed" only makes people feel despair.
…
The reputation of "The Wind Rises in the Green Ping" is mediocre. The authors and readers who pay attention to the online literature section on a daily basis have noticed the actions of the two companies, Knicks and Karaen. Xue Wu, who took a break for a while after completing "A Cluster of Fireflies", and Tan Shao, a veteran master of Karaen, have both released trailers for new works.
[Is this meant to compete with Teriyaki Chicken Legs for the top spot? ]
Absolutely.
[Everyone wants to be the first on the gold list. Originally, Knicks and Karaen thought they couldn't compete. Now Teriyaki Chicken Legs has taken the initiative to give them a chance. Why not compete? If you don't compete, you're a fool. ]
[Besides, they are not as dirty as Qiao Da. They are just posting normally and competing normally. ]
Later, Lin Shu also heard some rumors.
He doesn't have many friends in the author circle. The ones he's familiar with are Ling Luo and Guju. He doesn't even add many authors from Sculpture Entertainment. In the words of Cheese Bean, the more people there are, the more trouble there is. Even though the authors are usually quite homebodies, it can be very lively when they get busy.
Lin Shu deeply agrees.
"That's true." Ling Luo said, "My editor wanted to call me, but he probably knew that we have a good relationship, so he didn't call me."
"Did they call you?" Guju frantically @ Ling Luo in the group, "Why didn't they call me?!!!"
"I am also Karaen's signature author, okay?"
Ling Luo: “…”
Not to mention the old articles that Guju has not yet finished, he can't even compete with Teriyaki Chicken Legs in terms of update volume. Where does his confidence come from?
All in all, whether it is Knicks or Karan, the desire to return to the top of the gold list is particularly strong.
Before Teriyaki Chicken Legs came out of nowhere, the Knicks usually occupied six positions in the top ten of the gold list, Karahan three or four, and as for Carving Entertainment, there were zero positions when Teriyaki Chicken Legs was first signed - starting with "Cooking", Carving Entertainment's weight in the top ten of the gold list gradually increased.
But there is only one article about "Cooking Food", which doesn't make people feel that the top ten on the gold list are "all" articles about carving entertainment.
But now, Teriyaki Chicken Legs has at least three articles in the top ten of the gold list, plus other contracted authors of Carving Entertainment, it is visibly that the proportion of Knicks and Karaen's front-row authors has decreased a lot.
If another article titled "The King of Talent Show" is published, it is obvious that the ranking of the old article about Teriyaki Chicken Legs will continue to be boosted.
Fortunately, Teriyaki Chicken Legs’ new article did not start with “The King of the Talent Show” 2.0, but chose “The Wind Rises in the Green Ping”.
Now is a good time for Knicks and Karaen to capture the city!
The scene of teriyaki chicken legs lined up in a row is really scary. Although Teriyaki chicken legs are good people and have won a lot of attention for the online literature section, competition always exists anyway.
“Karaan and Nix didn’t leave this time.” Cheese Bean said, “Many of those who danced hard were fans of Qiao Da.”
Although Qiao Da has become history in the online literature section, he still has loyal fans. After Qiao Da stopped writing, these fans either switched to supporting other authors or focused on black teriyaki chicken legs.
The shaky start of “The Wind Rises in the Sky” is great news for fans of Qiao Da.
Qiao Da's fans have been loving reading the comment section of "The Wind Rises and the Blue Ping" these days. A comment "I really want to slap the male lead" received nearly a thousand likes.
[Tsk tsk tsk, Teriyaki chicken leg, you have come to this day! ]
When these fans thought about the reviews that "The Wind Rises in the Sky" had received, they couldn't help but laugh out loud.
