Chapter 17 Who Can Compete?
Gu Qingge returned to his room and fell into a state of deep thought.
She had just gained a preliminary understanding that the popular fiction market in China in this world was very mature.
The three best-selling categories are youth romance, suspense and mystery, and fantasy and exciting novels.
Of course there are other types of novels, but their readership is far less than the first three categories.
This has also led to many editors of popular magazines preferring these three types of novels. After all, editors in the popular fiction circle all follow the market, and high sales are the bottom line.
However, Gu Qingge did not plan to write these three types of popular novels as his debut work. The reason was very simple. There were too many great writers in these three categories, the competition was too fierce, and it was extremely difficult for newcomers to stand out.
If singer Gu Qing happened to have work cards in these categories, then she would certainly not be afraid of competition. The problem is that she doesn't have them. For this debut work, her work must be at least semi-original.
Why is it semi-original? After all, she still has many memories of her previous life's online articles in her mind, so she can use these as materials and write them in her own style.
She now has a green mastery-level literature skill card, so her ability to control words is definitely no problem.
"My debut novel must create a whole new category and become an unsurpassed groundbreaking work in that category!"
After Gu Qingge secretly made this decision, he began to think about which categories had never been written by any author.
Someone has already written about the horror and supernatural category, so I’ll pass.
Someone has also written about the sports competition category. In the past, various types of murderous football, basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc. were popular on the market, and each character in them had super powers and special moves... so I pass.
Novels about urban rebirth, entrepreneurship, and nostalgia have already been written to excess, so I’ll pass.
For historical time travel, almost every dynasty in this world's China has been written about by an author, but Gu Qingge knows nothing about the history of the parallel world, so he still gives it a pass.
The martial arts and fairy tale genres are very niche in this world because there are no Jin Yong, Gu Long, Liang Yusheng and others to carry it forward, so there are no classics. However, this genre has been written by some people. But when Gu Qingge draws the work card in the future, he will be able to revitalize this genre.
After Gu Qingge took stock of it, he discovered that the popular fiction circle in this world was absolutely flourishing, with excellent works of all categories, and even the depth and scale exceeded the online literature of his previous life.
This undoubtedly made Gu Qingge's goal of "becoming famous with one book" very difficult.
But Gu Qingge did not feel any fear. She believed that as long as she found the right subject, she would be able to do it with her current proficient literary skills.
"Sister, tomorrow we will go to the Internet cafe near the school to play "Heroes of Glory". Don't forget this." Gu Wenzhou sent a message.
Gu Qingge casually gestured "OK" in return, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind. She sent a message asking, "Brother, have you read the e-sports novel "Heroes of Glory"?"
"Esports novel? What is that? I've only read fan fiction based on "Glory of the Heroes." Gu Wenzhou replied.
Previously, when Gu Qingge was on Qidian.com, Gu Wenzhou next to him said that in addition to playing games, he also liked to read novels, but he usually went to bookstores to shamelessly borrow books to read, and he was reluctant to spend money to buy books for entertainment.
Of course, if he becomes a professional and makes a lot of money in the future, he will definitely go on a shopping spree and use a room specifically to store his favorite popular novels.
After knowing that Gu Wenzhou was also a veteran fan of cool novels, Gu Qingge would naturally ask him some questions about novels.
Gu Wenzhou had no idea that his sister was actually going to write a novel. He thought she just wanted to find some popular novels to read and relax after the art exam.
Reading popular novels for entertainment is a popular form of recreation in this parallel world. Many students love to read them, but some schools with strict management certainly do not allow students to read this kind of "dross".
So the students started a battle of wits and courage with the school. They even bought physical books, tore them out page by page, and secretly read them by inserting them into textbooks...
At this time, Gu Qingge, who had received the answer, had already decided that she would write an e-sports novel that no one in the world had ever written before, with the world's most popular MOBA game "Heroes of Glory" as the background.
She named this e-sports novel "Who Can Compete", the male protagonist is named Yu Luosheng, ID: Fighting Eagle, and the female protagonist is named Xia Yuli, ID: Shallow Dream.
When you see the title of this book and the names of the male and female protagonists, you should know which online novel from his previous life Gu Qingge borrowed the material from.
It is "League of Legends: Who Can Compete?"
This online novel tells the story of Yu Luosheng, a League of Legends player with genius-level skills, who fights with his friends in the field of e-sports and reaches the top.
With the help of this book, the author "Luan" became a master of e-sports novels from a newcomer. It can be regarded as a milestone in the e-sports theme of online literature.
In fact, Gu Qingge had long forgotten the plot of this novel, which can be regarded as the earliest League of Legends e-sports novel, but she still remembered the hero "Captain Yu"'s "Fighting Eagle, return to the team!", and the frail and sickly super genius and geeky female protagonist "Qian Meng".
An online novel that has been completed for many years but still makes people remember the male and female protagonists is already a success enough.
So Gu Qingge decided to directly use the characters of the male and female protagonists in this e-sports novel, which is called taking the essence.
As for other characters, they are of course based on the professional League of Legends players in previous lives, such as the great devil Faker, the world's number one Eddie Uzi, the exciting and enjoyable "Song Jiang" The shy, the dream-type quarterfinal jungler Qijiang, the man Wuwukai, etc. If their images are portrayed, it will be so real and interesting!
The plot of the novel, of course, is that the male protagonist, Yu Luosheng, leads his team to victory after victory, dominating the LPL, counterattacking the LCK, and beating up the European and American losers, and finally defeating the peak Faker to win the S championship, the Asian Games championship, the Olympic championship, the World Cup championship...
This kind of plot is classic and authentic, which will surely make readers very satisfied and have a great time fantasizing. It just so happens that the Chinese e-sports in this world is also in a "dark age", which is actually very beneficial to "Who Can Contend".
In addition to the competition, there are so many gossips and memes to write about in the e-sports circle of the original world, and things like the e-sports toilet stress relief and taking the blame must also be arranged.
The more Gu Qingge thought about it, the more interesting it seemed. Perhaps this was the joy of creating a magical adaptation. It wouldn't be as interesting if he just drew the work card and copied it as it was.
However, the first problem she had to solve was that she could no longer write based on the "League of Legends" games of her previous life, but had to write about the heroes and classic games in this world's "Glory of the Heroes".
And this time, her expert gaming skills came in handy again. She was able to write "Who's the Contender" very professionally, the kind that even professional players couldn't find fault with!
She should be the most professional author of e-sports novels. After all, purple master-level game skills will definitely be unlocked in the future.
Even her younger brother Gu Wenzhou can be her "technical consultant", helping her use the heroes in "Heroes of Glory" to improve, simulate and restore certain famous scenes, such as "Two Tribulations", "Heavenly Thunder", "Earthly Fire", "God Descends to Earth and Hammers Four", etc.
