It had been a long time since I posted anything outside of the article. The last 'fortune-telling' was at the beginning of January, right before the start of 'The God of Swords'.
At the time, it was the end of the year, and there were many things to do. Therefore, the God of Swords had to wait for two whole months before he finished laughing.
Since I had been working on the same script for the past two months, I felt like there was no need to write any more previews. If I really had to write one, the previews would have been something like 'The God of Swords is still smiling this month'.
What about after the God of Swords script ended? I wanted to write one, but after thinking about it, did I really need a previews for 'Chapter 33 Detective'? The title was already a kind of preview, so adding more would be unnecessary.
Therefore, in total, I had not written a single chapter for four months.
Actually … it felt not bad.
It was as if I had returned to the time when I was serializing Ghost Cry and Crime. Other than the main text, it was not that bad to say too much.
However, at this point, there was indeed a need to write something like that. Therefore, today, I would like to share everything that I had been saving up for a long time.
First, I should talk about something that everyone is more interested in, the progress of the novel.
I went to look back at the previous chapters. The first time I mentioned the ending was in October of 2015. At the time, I said, "Perhaps by the end of next year, Thriller Paradise will have reached its final stage."
Please pay attention to two key points in that sentence. First, it was' final stage ', not' ending '. Second, it was' perhaps', not 'definitely'.
Later, in December of 2015, this was mentioned once. Of course, the clever me used words like 'try my best' and 'try my best'.
Then, at the beginning of 2016, I started to work on the game. In September, I accepted some film work and stopped.
At the time, I was chilled by the comments of some readers. Combined with the increase in extra work and my declining health, I started to write fewer and fewer chapters. I could only 'try my best' to update Thriller Paradise.
Now that I think about it, I was too optimistic in 2015. How could it end at the end of 2016?
[Laughing] Even if I didn't stop writing at the end of September last year and continued until the end of the year, I wouldn't have been able to finish it.
In fact, I'm also very busy right now. A few months ago, I was determined to finish it in the first half of this year, but thinking about it carefully … Do you think that starting today, I can finish "S3" in two months?
That's obviously impossible, so … we'll have to wait a little longer before the horror ends.
The S3 competition also had a script, so it was only natural for the curtain call to be longer. First, he set a small goal for himself, which was to write five million words.
OK, now that we've finished talking about the progress, I'm sure everyone's emotions (anger) have been stirred up, so let's talk about something else …
Today, Qidian started a Fan Festival or something. In short, there were all kinds of rankings. Those who are familiar with me know that I don't like these kinds of things.
But there is one thing that I am very happy about, and that is that I can see a lot of attention and love from readers from this kind of activity.
In today's world, it's not easy for someone to be willing to do something for you unconditionally. To be honest, I'm very touched. I'm so excited that I might not be able to update today.
In any case, thank you very much, but don't think that I'm trying to get votes.
I'll say the same thing again, I don't need those rankings, rankings, or votes at the moment. I'll tell you when I need them. Please vote for those who need them and are hardworking.
What a detective can do is to find the truth, and what I can do is to write every chapter, every section, every sentence, every word with my heart … I won't let down your subscriptions and support, and I won't let down your understanding and dedication to writing.
As for your support, whether it's voting, buying physical books, or sending razor blades, we're all so familiar with each other, so it's up to you …
Hmm … Next, let's talk about some painful topics.
Previously, there were some problems with the copyright contract for "Crime." The main responsibility lies with me. Now, after the efforts of many parties, the negotiations have basically been completed. Of course, although it's a negotiation, I don't have any say in it. I'm just the person responsible.
This matter should be resolved soon, but of course, it will require money.
I don't know why, but it seems like everyone thinks that I'm quite rich. I don't know about the situation of other writers, but I've been writing for so many years, and my ultimate goal has never been money. I really don't have much money.
I'm not living in a villa, driving a luxury car, and playing games every day. In fact, I barely managed to buy a second-hand house of about fifty square meters at the end of last year, and it's still not fully renovated. My wife and I are still renting a house.
In a few months, I'll be a father, and there will be more places to spend money. I estimate that I'll owe the bank a million or so yuan after this contract is completed.
In short … my life isn't easy.
However, please don't worry … I'm a professional, and I'm responsible for my work. I won't purposely speed up my novel's update speed because of personal financial pressure.
Alright … I've talked about a lot of things. Finally, I'll give you a preview of the plot.
I'm still thinking about the rules of S3 …
The ending of each character needs to be confirmed before I start writing. Actually, I've already decided on the fate of most of the main characters a long time ago. Now, I just need to adjust it according to the plot.
As the final chapter of Thriller Paradise, S3 has to be an epic. In May, we'll start it off and get used to this strong pacing. We'll start with the announcement of the rules and the introduction of the main characters.
Then, that's all for today. I wish everyone who has just finished their short break a happy study and work. (Tsk … how could something like that be happy?)
