Chapter 33 The author doesn't understand at all!
Compared to the boiling noise on the star network at this moment, the Federation Star, which is about to enter the late night, is peaceful.
Federation Literary Institute.
"Hey, Lu Wei, you are working overtime today and you are not leaving yet?"
The colleague glanced at the office and found that it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening, and there were still people in the office.
"Well, you go first."
However, facing the inquiry, Lu Wei in front of the window smiled, but he had no intention of leaving.
"Oh, okay, then don't stay too late!"
The colleague shook his head and didn't try to keep him.
Although they are all researchers who came in at the same batch that year, Lu Wei is always a little different from everyone else.
And it is said that he is not a native of the Federation. In short, his background is a bit mysterious.
After watching his colleagues leave one after another, Lu Wei looked back at the computer in his hand.
If he moved closer to the screen to see the reader ID, he would suddenly find that the Lu Wei in front of him was actually the "Interstellar Traveler" who was quite famous among Yu Mian's fans!
The famous genius interpretation of the book review of "Interstellar Traveler" directly reversed the public opinion of "The Agreement Marriage" when it faced a public opinion crisis, and even drew the support of a group of professors from Hols.
So Yu Mian had a very deep impression of this reader who was identified as a "federation researcher".
However, since that public voice, this "Interstellar Traveler" has never appeared again, as if he had disappeared.
Yu Mian was not too surprised or regretful about this, he just thought that the other party might not really be following the update.
After all, most of the legendary researchers should be relatively aloof?
But in fact, Lu Wei just went back to his hometown planet for something, and only returned to the Human Federation Star today.
Yes, Lu Wei is indeed not a member of the Federation, because Lu Wei is not even a human.
He is the famous Zerg in interstellar literature!
However, Lu Wei is not one of those fanatical military-loving Zerg who likes to fight, but a rare "liberal arts student" in the Zerg tribe.
The original species that can be traced back tens of millions of years is called "Silver Fish".
Although it is called fish, it is a kind of insect that specializes in eating books, which is commonly known as "bookworm".
The "yellow scroll" in the so-called "green lamp and yellow scroll" in the ancient Blue Star era refers to the use of related herbs to dye the paper yellow, so as to achieve the effect of preventing it from being eaten by bookworms and silver fish.
Of course, with the development of the interstellar era, this race has also kept pace with the times and no longer needs to chew physical books. Instead, they like to absorb the spiritual power of the text after reading books.
Therefore, the Lu Wei tribe often likes to roam and live in the universe, read books circulated in major galaxies and use them as food.
Many famous scholars have emerged from this.
However, because the reputation of the Zerg in the interstellar era is not much better than that of the Bart tribe, most of them have hidden their identities.
The Federation Star where humans live can be said to be a place with an extremely rich collection of books, so the young worm Lu Wei chose this planet to settle down.
The collection of books in the Federal Academy of Literature is indeed vast. Since Lu Wei came here, he can eat well every day and is very healthy and satisfied.
However!
All this has changed in a strange way after the appearance of a book called "Agreement Marriage".
It's like a person who has eaten super healthy coarse grains such as rice and wheat for decades, and suddenly one day he sips a sip of milk tea/eats a piece of cake/has a barbecue in the middle of the night...
This simply conquered the taste buds of the young worm Lu Wei!
It can be said that he is addicted to it after eating it, and he can't stop from then on.
Especially the first book "Agreement Marriage" has been read over and over again by Lu Wei hundreds of times, but as soon as he came back today, he found that the author has opened a new book "Eternal Night Rose"!
As for the second book, "The Rose of Eternal Night", Lu Wei simply became more and more addicted to it after reading it, and he couldn't put it down.
After all, as a bookworm, Lu Wei could most intuitively feel that the taste of the second book was indeed different from the first book.
Compared with the simple and fluent words and short sentences in "The Marriage Agreement", "The Rose of Eternal Night" deliberately has many complicated long sentences and historical references to create a mysterious and ancient atmosphere.
Although many ordinary interstellar readers responded in the comment area that although the new book is also very good, it seems a bit difficult to read, and it is not as easy to read and understand as the author's first book "The Marriage Agreement".
But for Lu Wei, the style of the new book is absolutely in line with his heart!
I just wish the author would have more of this style!
So Lu Wei, who was still not satisfied, also opened the page of "The Rose of Eternal Night" and used the human star coins that the Federal Institute of Literature gave him to reward Yu Mian directly.
[[Reward Starship X10] Interstellar Traveler: I like it very much, give me more! The new book is super delicious, please update this one more! ^_^]
Of course, after rewarding, he went to read the latest update of "Agreement Marriage" as usual, and Lu Wei was very satisfied.
It felt like the light computer had been taken away for more than a month, and now it was back to read a lot of it in one go.
The news that the famous reader "Interstellar Traveler" was re-exploded by Yu Mian with the new book "The Rose of Eternal Night" undoubtedly added a new wave of heat and topics to the new book, which was already worthy of everyone's attention.
[Oh my god, Master Traveler has reappeared! ? Are there any latest analysis and book reviews this time? I love it! ]
[I am reading so much. I have read the beginning of the new book so much. I will be starved to death if I read it weekly. Can't you write more for Master Traveler's sake? Crying]
[That's right, "The Rose of Eternal Night" is really good. Who knows? I think it is even better than "The Marriage Agreement". Why don't you change it to daily updates, Master Fish Soup Noodle——! ]
And with this wave of popularity, the data performance of "The Rose of Eternal Night" on the world list is amazing, and it is almost approaching the previous book "The Marriage Agreement".
The key is that "Eternal Night Rose" is updated weekly, which inadvertently creates a kind of "hunger marketing" effect, so that many readers are hooked and start to compare unconsciously.
After all, the styles of the two books are different. Although they are both written by Yu Mian, it is inevitable that there will be a group of readers who like one book more.
The only problem is that "Contract Marriage" is also at a critical stage of burning in the crematorium.
A lot of die-hard fans are crying and begging for Caesar and Gu Bai to get back together, and they wish Yu Mian would write ten updates a night until they remarry!
When they saw that someone dared to ask for the update frequency of the two books to be swapped, they must have been furious.
[Hey! ? You were the ones who said you didn't like it, how dare you ask for a weekly update of our "Agreement Marriage" now! ? ]
[Yeah, I'm furious. I wanted to cry today and felt desperate. You guys are doing this? ]
[Help me, I can't even imagine changing to "Agreement Marriage" to a weekly update. Wouldn't it take me another lifetime to see Gu Bai and Caesar get back together! ? [Breaking tears]]
Actually, many old readers of "Agreement Marriage" who have temporarily held back from falling for the weekly update of "Eternal Night Rose" are just looking for fun.
But they didn't expect that the fire would directly burn their own granary while they were watching from the other side of the river!
They were afraid that Yu Mian would really swap the update frequency of the two books after hearing the voices of these people.
Even Kane was alarmed, and he quickly added a reward in the comment area.
[[Reward Starship X10] EN: Although the new book is good, "Agreement Marriage" must not be interrupted. Everything has a first come first served, how can you cut in line! ?
Although Kane also likes "Eternal Night Rose", "Contract Marriage" is his "first love" in a sense. The
status of "first love" is absolutely unshakable.
If the update frequency of the two books is really swapped now, Kane feels that he will go crazy.
For a while, he is not so upset about the weekly update of "Eternal Night Rose". After all, keeping "Contract Marriage" updated daily is the first priority!
The tug of war between the reader groups of the two books is so fierce that when the live broadcast of the Universal Star Plan interview was about to start the next day, the number of people online directly broke the historical high.
It caused the live broadcast room to be a little stuck once in a century.
The technicians in the Universal Technology Department never thought that there would be so many people.
After all, the Rising Star Project is, to put it
bluntly, an event for new authors, and its scale is much smaller than that of veteran authors. As a result, this year there was one more person, Yu Mian, and the popularity went off the charts. There were so many people in the waiting area’s message box that they were all madly arguing with each other.
"Upgrade, quickly upgrade to the largest live broadcast room, didn’t we say that the specifications would be raised this year?"
The deputy editor in the Huanyu editorial department was wiping his sweat frantically, which was a painful sweetness.
"Ah? When did I say that I would swap the update frequency of the two books..."
Even Yu Mian, who had just woken up and logged into the optical computer and was debugging the parameters to enter the Huanyu interview live broadcast room, couldn't help but hesitate when he saw the waves of heated debates in the comment area.
I just didn't go online for one night, why did a fight almost break out?
It was as if the update would be swapped in the next second.
After all, anyone with a little common sense would know that they must not be swapped.
Just like what Kane said, "first come, first served", wouldn't such a switch directly make the old readers of "Agreement Marriage" explode.
Although Yu Mian did not expect that the update of "Eternal Night Rose" would also bring up the old reader "Star Traveler" who had disappeared for a long time.
And judging from the speaking style of the message, why does it feel that this researcher with the ID "Star Traveler" is not very old?
[There are so many races in the interstellar age, maybe this one is also a special race? Just like Lilith is over 400 years old, she is not considered middle-aged in the Bart tribe. 】
The small system also explained Yu Mian's curiosity.
"Okay, but I have to choose a virtual image to enter now."
Yu Mian tried to enter the live broadcast room of the Star Age for the first time.
To be honest, if Editor Shax hadn't been so persistent, I really didn't want to appear in front of so many people.
Especially since the two books happened to have such a Shura scene in the plot points, it was almost a visible scene of social phobia execution.
"Ah, how come the default virtual image is also a real-life projection? Then what is the difference between my online and offline participation!?"
Yu Mian had just entered the settings page when he found that his initial virtual image was a 1:1 replica of his mermaid appearance.
Even the hair that hadn't been cut for a long time was also slightly hanging down by his ears.
Fortunately, he didn't enter the live broadcast room directly, otherwise he would be exposed directly.
[Wow, can't we just participate like this? I swear the popularity will definitely go through the roof! ]
The system has not given up on persuading Yu Mian to take the path of a popular superstar.
"That's definitely not possible."
Yu Mian glanced at the time and quickly began to urgently adjust his virtual image.
"Hasn't Mr. Fish Soup Noodle entered the live broadcast room yet?"
At the scene of the Universal New Star Program, the host also glanced at the time and found that it seemed that only Yu Mian was missing.
This was the first time that Universal allowed authors to appear in virtual images, so many authors switched to online participation after knowing this.
The live broadcast room at this moment was extremely lively. Various authors saw each other's real-life images for the first time, and they couldn't help but talk to each other.
Of course, there were also typical I-person authors who chose a seat at the edge and sat down in a daze as soon as they entered the live broadcast room.
"What should I do? It's going to start in 1 minute. Have you contacted Shax?"
The host subconsciously asked Shax, the editor in charge of Yu Mian.
"I have contacted him. He told me that he was connected just 5 minutes ago. Could it be that he didn't find the right code for the live broadcast room and entered the wrong one?"
Shax couldn't help but get nervous. He didn't want Yu Mian to encounter any unexpected situation in his first official event.
Seeing that Fish Soup Noodles was late, the readers in the comment area of the live broadcast room finally stopped their previous confrontation and discussed why their boss hadn't arrived yet.
[Boss, could it be that we scared you so much that you don't want to come? We were just joking, I am satisfied with one update Orz】
【Although the plot timing is really bad, I still want to meet you, I really want to be selected to ask questions! 】
[I must ask Gu Bai and Caesar when they can remarry. I feel like I'm really weird. I used to ask about divorce, and now I'm really divorced and I'm asking about remarriage! What the hell am I?]
Even the other Universal authors who were already present were actually quite curious about Yu Mian, the dark horse author.
It would be such a pity if he couldn't come because of some accident!
"Ding Dong——"
Fortunately, just as the last minute was about to arrive, the news of the last guest entering the live broadcast room finally came.
"I'm so sorry! I'm late!"
As a voice came, everyone looked at the virtual image at the entrance of the live broadcast room, and the whole audience fell silent.
"Fish, fish soup noodles!??"
The host didn't react at once.
Because the virtual image that Yu Mian modified was not even 3D, but the only 2D flat image in the audience.
A Q-version bowl with simple line hands and feet.
Two dots and a line are used to draw eyes and a mouth on the bowl.
Although compared with the pen name, it can be said that it is very vivid, a real "bowl of fish soup noodles"!
When walking, the lines that look like noodles in the bowl will shake with it, weirdly ugly, clumsy and cute.
"That one is not late, your seat is here..."
The host's voice was a little bitter, looking at Yu Mian's bowl of short-legged fish soup noodles with disdain, and ran to the seat with a grunt, and sat down a little stiffly.
Although the group photo of the authors at this moment is simply ridiculous.
It seems that everyone is taking a group photo around the bowl of noodles in the middle!
[I am crying, Master, I have been looking forward to this for a long time, and you let me see this! ? ]
[So I suddenly became really curious, what does this pen name mean... Has anyone eaten fish soup noodles? ]
[I dare not look directly at my fish soup noodles, so I dare not ask too fierce questions immediately, he looks really timid and weak...]
The Q version virtual image that Yu Mian, a poor painter, just drew for himself quickly is indeed not beautiful, but it is unique in terms of eye-catching degree.
So much so that when other authors were interviewed and interacted, this bowl of fish soup noodles in the background was strangely impossible to ignore.
It can be called a shining background board.
"Help, why are so many people still staring at me?"
Yu Mian soon discovered this, but there was no turning back after entering the live broadcast room.
[Because your painting skills are really genius.]
The small system originally wanted to cheat and generate a virtual image for Yu Mian, but Yu Mian drew one with a few strokes and hurried into the live broadcast room.
So no one expected that the first hot search triggered by the live broadcast room of the Universal Star Project this year was not a hot search about the content of the novel story, but #What does fish soup noodles taste like? #After all,
countless interstellar readers who drink nutrient solution all year round couldn't help but be curious about what this pen name represents after seeing Yu Mian's image.
However, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the interview of the Rising Star Project has entered the most watched part!
"Next is our 'Best Newcomer Award', the winner is a bowl of fish soup noodles, please invite the author to come on stage to receive the award!"
The host read the script seriously, but Yu Mian, the Q version of the bowl of fish soup noodles, ran up to the stage with short legs and took the trophy, which still looked very abstract.
"Do you have anything to say to the readers?"
"Uh... thank you for your love and support?"
The host tried to ask Yu Mian if he had anything to say, but he didn't expect Yu Mian to end the interview with just one sentence.
"Okay, let's move on to the interview!"
Each author will have a special interview environment, and sofas and coffee tables suddenly appeared on the stage like a tea party.
"I'm very happy to invite Mr. Yutang Noodles to participate in the interview today. The first question is... Uh."
The host looked at the first question drawn, and unexpectedly it was a bit sharp.
However, because it was a live broadcast, the host hesitated and read it out.
"What do you think about the fact that after your work was published on the world, many authors stopped writing traditional novels and started writing some strange and fantasy works?"
As soon as this question came up, not only did the atmosphere in the live broadcast room become tense, but even the readers in the comment area realized that something was wrong.
[Ah, what do you mean by asking this question! ? It's me! I took the initiative to read it, and I took the initiative to reward it. Why are you bothering me, the author! ? ]
[Yeah, this question seems to be deliberately binary, and it's easy to get into trouble if you don't answer it well... I actually like the fact that there are all kinds of works now. ]
In fact, once Yu Mian's work style from the 21st century appeared, it did bring a considerable impact to the traditional work style of the interstellar era.
The most direct impact is that more and more interstellar authors are no longer afraid of the previous restrictions on themes, but instead try to write all kinds of fantasy works, among which there are also many new masterpieces.
Although the atmosphere was a bit tense, it suddenly became less tense once people saw the big, chewy bowl of fish soup noodles.
After hearing this question, Yu Mian pondered for a few seconds and then answered very sincerely:
"Well... actually I think that these two styles are in a coexistence relationship rather than a certain kind of opposition and competition."
"For creators, I think we should allow more works of different styles to appear and discover more possibilities for stories."
"So if more and more authors are trying new styles, we can give them more time to wait and pay attention to their exploration, rather than forcibly frame them according to the old model." When
Yu Mian answered this question, what he thought of in his heart was indeed the book "On the Shores of Lake Madera" that he read at the beginning. In fact, if the editor had not forcibly interfered with the development of the book, it might have been a very good work.
Therefore, Yu Mian's answer to the first question, rather than affecting the readers outside the room, actually gave the new authors present a lot to think about.
After all, Yu Mian, an outsider, entered the interstellar age like an apple that fell into a chessboard, bringing a completely different logic.
This has a much greater impact than a chess piece that jumped out of the chessboard.
To a certain extent, it is like accelerating a certain transformation that was originally progressing slowly.
However, after this question, Huanyu obviously immediately changed the algorithm for extracting questions. The following questions were obviously asked by pure readers, and the content of the questions was closely integrated with the story plot!
The only problem is that Yu Mian's answer speed has gradually become faster.
In fact, people who are familiar with Yu Mian will know that Yu Mian is just a little nervous.
But in the eyes of outsiders, Yu Mian, the author, is so fast in asking and answering questions that it is terrifying!
Because the process is like this↓
Host: "Oh, the first reader seems to be a male supporting CP fan. He wants to ask you whether Roy in "Agreed Marriage" has ever been attracted to Gu Bai, and whether there is a possibility that the two of them are together? Because in the text, Roy once... (N detailed examples are omitted here)"
Yu Mian: "Ah? No, these two are obviously just friends. I remember that this part of the story in the text does not mean this, and... (carefully explain 100 words), so did this reader read the wrong text?"
After answering the question from the first pure reader, Yu Mian was even a little stunned for a moment.
I have no idea where this CP fan reader got such rich meanings and interactions from, which made Yu Mian almost doubt that he was writing a stock buying article instead of a 1v1 wife chasing crematorium.
"Okay, thank you for your answer, next question."
Although the host felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, he still continued.
"The next reader wants to ask, when can Gu Bai and Caesar remarry? Gu Bai actually still loves Caesar very much, and his temporary departure now is actually just to make Caesar regret it. After all, according to the details of Gu Bai repaying the money and blah blah in the article... (several hundred words of text analysis omitted here), do you agree with this point of view?"
"Of course not!"
Yu Mian, who heard the second question, denied it without even thinking about it.
"Repaying the money is because he has truly let it go, so Gu Bai chooses not to owe Caesar anything materially from now on."
"Just like when Gu Bai left the villa, what was in the suitcase when he came here a year ago? When he left, he only took the original things with him, without any gifts or clothes given by Caesar."
Yu Mian even helped to analyze it seriously, trying to make this reader understand the original meaning more accurately.
"As for remarriage, it involves spoilers, but how should I put it? Caesar is still completely unaware of his mistakes, right? Everyone understands. Next question?"
After answering the two questions smoothly, Yu Mian even felt relieved.
It seems that it is not difficult for readers to answer questions interactively.
"Oh, okay, next question..."
Only the host subconsciously wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and looked up at Yu Mian. He wanted to remind him something, but he only saw the cold lines of his facial features.
With every word he said, he could vaguely hear the heartbreak of countless readers.
It was so scary, but maybe this was the style of this fish noodle master.
He is indeed the author who led the world's creative trend!
In this rapid question and answer, the bullet screen and comments in the live broadcast room had completely changed, although Yu Mian himself was completely unaware of the change.
Especially when countless readers saw in various ways on various platforms on the Star Network, in the live video, Yu Mian's bowl of fish soup noodles, coldly and ruthlessly explained in detail that Gu Bai actually had no CP feelings for a popular male supporting character.
Or maybe Caesar actually still has a long way to go to chase his wife.
And the new book "Eternal Night Rose" is indeed still in preparation and will not be updated daily for the time being...
Countless "rice bowls" were accidentally kicked away by the author Yu Mian, and the emotionally collapsed Star Book fans have almost occupied the comment areas of major platforms.
#Help! A bowl of fish soup noodles, he doesn't understand "Agreement Marriage" at all! Huanyu, I beg you to be a human being and stop the live broadcast as soon as possible! #The
top trending search has such a strong comedic effect that it adds an indescribable black humor to the unprecedentedly popular interview with new stars.
