Chapter 100
Words:689Update:22/06/27 11:01:55
I'm just an ordinary person.
I was born very ordinary. My hometown is a small county town. My parents don't have any background, and none of my relatives are outstanding.
My schooling was also very ordinary. I don't know if I'm considered very hardworking, but I'm not lazy. However, I'm still a slacker. I worked myself to death to get into a third-rate college and get a diploma and a job.
I only got married when I was almost thirty, and I'm not good at socializing. I'm easily flustered when interacting with strangers, and I'm even a little afraid of socializing.
I'm almost forty, and my wife, kids, and parents are counting on me.
Because I'm too ordinary, I yearn to not be ordinary.
Many superheroes in the movies want to return to ordinary after doing something big, but an ordinary person like me has countless dreams of being a hero. I think everyone should be like me. The satisfaction that can't be obtained in real life, I hope to obtain it in a fictional spiritual world.
For me, being able to write "Rise of the Wasteland" well is already considered a success. After all, I'm not an amazing person. My aptitude is average, and I'm halfway through writing. Being able to earn a living is already my readers giving me face.
But I still want to be a hero, a figure in the online literature circle.
I don't have any hopes of becoming famous with one book. I've already written eight books, and the word count adds up to ten million words.
Then can I soar to the top with this book?
This plan also failed. "Zhan Long" has been uploaded for two months, and the background data has been lukewarm. I'm only doing better than the newbies. In comparison, "other people's books" are extremely popular — — This is just like the scene when I was in school. Why did "other people's children" have to hurt me every day?
But dreams always exist.
I hope to become a god. Like all people who have a dream, I hope to stand in a spotlight to show it. To tell everyone that I'm different. Although I'm not good at such high-profile things, it doesn't stop me from dreaming!
Because I'm ordinary, I have dreams!
I once tried to summarize why I was able to make it in my acceptance speech for "Rise of the Wasteland", but I found that it was difficult to give a path to success. Different people, different states of mind, different times, and different paths to success are all different.
I can't give up on the future because of the hardship and humbleness of the present. Success often happens in the most unexpected places, and I'm looking forward to that moment again.
"Zhan Long" has just begun, and there will be endless exciting dramas. I hope everyone can imagine limitlessly with me, and freely express themselves.
