Fox in the Penalty Area

　　PS, this is a single chapter I wrote before going to bed after I finished writing the text last night. It was only sent out after I got up today.

　　※※※

　　The Sino-Korean war has not been over yet, I am sorry that with my current ability, the outbreak can only last so long.

　　 When I said this, I remembered that when I wrote "The Hero of the Forbidden Zone" and "The Winner is King", there were three, five, and ten changes a day, and there was a feeling of "the past is like wind".

　　 I think Lin Hai Tingtao can update 1 million words a month, and update 25,000 words every day for ten consecutive days...

　　 I was also an author who could write 4.6 million words in just ten months.

　　 And now the amount I write in a year is not even half of this.

　　 Some people say that I am not short of money, so the speed has dropped.

　　 Really, who is too rich?

　　 As long as I can raise the speed, I can change three or five a day, can my book score like this?

　　 But I'm really upset.

　　On the one hand, it’s because of physical reasons. I can hardly think of writing "The Winner is King" when I was sitting in front of the computer for more than ten hours a day without stopping codewords without being distracted.

　　 Now I may be removed from the state after half an hour of writing, which may be a sign of lack of energy.

　　 On the other hand, the reason is that as I grow older, more family responsibilities are on my shoulders, so I can’t just think about stories, plots and characters as before.

Now I need to consider the various problems of children, wives, and parents. It is not a big problem. Most of them are trivial matters, but trivial matters particularly involve energy. Such trivial matters make it difficult for me to fully immerse myself in my novels. .

　　 Take the day I announced the outbreak of the third watch as an example.

　　 It was Saturday, and my wife and I took the child out early in the morning to take him to a Lego robot programming competition.

　　 He participated in the competition, while I was in the cafe upstairs to grab the time code.

　　 One hour later, the game was over, and I packed up and went to meet them for lunch.

　　 After eating out, I drove home at about one and a half. I had a short rest. My wife took the children to help with homework, and I hurryed to code.

　　 Packed up things at 2:30 and went out again, taking the kids to participate in the karate teaching ceremony-he had been practicing this all the time, at first he hoped that he could exercise, but now it has become inertia.

During the ceremony of 　　, I found a table and chairs outside a bakery nearby and sat down to continue the code.

Next to 　　 is the ribbon-giving ceremony. There was music and the host’s shouting. I was standing against the big sun code word ten meters away.

　　 hasn’t been written for long, maybe less than half an hour. My son is about to tie up on stage, so I pack my things again, carry my bag and take pictures with him.

　　 Then I changed places, found a cafe code, and had dinner by the way.

　　 This is the longest time that I can code words continuously in this day, from four o'clock in the afternoon to eight o'clock in the evening-between one dinner.

　　 After dinner in a cafe, I brushed up on everyone's book review and petition, and promised everyone to break out.

　　Wait until eight o'clock, pack up things again and leave, pick him up from the place where my son learns to play football-because it's upstairs in the cafe, so I don't need to change places, otherwise I will have to find another place.

　　 After receiving the child, I drove the child and wife home, let the child wash, I turned on the computer to continue the code word.

　　 kept writing until 1:30 in the morning before finishing the update for this day.

This situation of always being interrupted, always changing places, always packing up my luggage, getting up and leaving, find a place to sit down and codewords. It is really difficult to immerse me in the book, so I have to search for the state to enter the state every time, and finally enter the state, I will be interrupted after writing...

　　 And such days are almost normal in this summer vacation.

　　 I’m not telling everyone, I just want to let you know what the daily life of a full-time online novel author is like.

　　 And seven years ago, when I wrote "The Winner is King", I had no children, not long after I was married, and I lived with my parents. Every day I open my eyes and wake up and eat breakfast and then I can start writing. I continue to write until I eat at noon. I continue to write after lunch. I write until dinner at night. I continue to write after dinner until I sleep.

　　 Apart from eating and going to the bathroom, nothing can disturb me. At that time, I was still young, energetic and fierce.

　　 And the day I just described, did you find out? I don't have time to spend time with my wife. Even when I go to bed, she is often asleep before I go to bed.

　　 Before, my wife stayed with me, but later she found out that she couldn't get through me... she could only retreat.

　　 Sometimes, except for the necessary communication, I can't talk a few words a day with her.

　　 She actually waits to talk to me every night when she sleeps. But I'm sorry, most of the time I can't even satisfy her this request-unless I talk to her. Well, although my wife doesn't watch football or read the books I wrote, I still talk to her when I'm Cavan, and she also helped out many good ideas.

　　 If this day comes down and I can go to bed before one o'clock in the morning, it is considered as early to bed.

　　 In addition to this kind of life trivial matter affecting my codewords, in addition to my body affecting my codeword speed, this book itself also makes it difficult for me to get up quickly.

　　 Let me report to you, under normal circumstances, how I write a book a day.

　　 In addition to the kind of running around and pin-up writing just mentioned.

　　 After I get up every morning, I will re-read all the content I wrote the previous day. On the one hand, I check for typos, and on the other hand, I am revised and revised. If I have a better idea, I will overwrite some places. Why not check the changes immediately after writing?

　　 This is to make me withdraw from the emotions and mentality of the content at the time of writing the first day, and to examine the content I wrote yesterday from another angle, and there may be new discoveries.

　　 Maybe the thing I got stuck yesterday, I suddenly figured it out today.

　　Because I slept late, I got up late. After this change, it was almost eleven o'clock. Only then did the new content start.

　　 If you are in good condition, you can finish a chapter before dinner. If you are in a bad condition, you can finish a chapter before ten o'clock in the evening.

　　 The state is not good, it is very likely that I wrote it hard today, and I lay in bed at night to think about it, and it will be invalidated and rewritten the next day.

　　 This is also the reason why I must have a manuscript-I am not the kind of author who is extremely talented and writes a book in one go. I often cram, I will encounter bottlenecks, and I will find that many of the chapters I wrote before are invalid...

　　 If the manuscript is not saved, it can only be cut off.

　　 Some readers said that I can't make two changes every day, one chapter in the morning and one chapter in the afternoon, with no passion and no hope at all.

　　 But this is the state I can maintain with all my best.

　　 When the manuscripts of this book were the least saved, after the two chapters were automatically updated the next day, only one chapter was saved.

　　 It took me a month to slowly collect the manuscripts from the time I only saved one chapter to three consecutive updates in these two days.

　　 There are readers who say you write too slowly.

　　 Speaking of "water", I think it may be that our understanding of "water" is different.

　　 For some readers, if you don’t write about football matches, the protagonist’s goal is water.

　　 But for me, I only write about the game and only the protagonist’s goal is water.

　　 One game after another, according to the schedule of the five major European leagues, write it down round after round. In each game, the protagonist scores goals, and collects various championships and personal honors season after season...

　　 It’s easy to write content like this, but I don’t like writing.

　　 This is not a football novel, this is a football strategy.

　　 "The Fox in the Forbidden Zone" is completely empty. Why should I write it in the rhythm of real football? Why can't I write about the stories and the fate of the characters around football?

　　 Looks off the court are as important as things that have nothing to do with football.

　　 because they shape every character together with the game itself.

Only in the game, Hu Lai is just a scoring machine. He has no way of coming or going. From the very beginning, he just wanted to enter the school team to now open his mouth to win the championship. How did this change happen step by step? It cannot be reflected by the game.

What is his living environment, what is his parents’ character, how such parents and living environment shape him, who are there around him, who likes him, people who hate him... All together can be shaped A complete Hu Lai.

　　 Otherwise, what everyone sees is just a "paper man", who looks like a person on the front, but it looks like a cardboard at the back.

　　Hu Lai is the same, Li Qingqing is also the same, Li Ziqiang, Xie Lan, Hu Lixin, Zhao Kangming, Wang Guangwei, Zhang Qinghuan, Chen Xingyi... etc., many people who appear in my book so far are like this.

　　 Of course, given the space issue, characters that are not very important will have fewer scenes and fewer descriptions of their surroundings.

　　 But it means that. No one is isolated and only exists in the plot of a football match.

　　 Lost the descriptions outside of football, and the descriptions that some readers consider to be "water", this character is untenable, meaningless, just a symbol.

　　 For example, if there is no such story from entering the National Olympic training team before, how can Hu Lai’s hat-trick against the South Korean team produce enough explosive effects? Do you just rely on me to say the Chinese and Korean football grudges?

　　 I said at the end of the first volume, even when the grades were particularly bad, I insisted on writing the campus football story in my mind without changing a word according to my original idea.

So now I still have this sentence, no matter how many people don’t like the plots outside the stadium, I will still insist on writing, writing complete, and full, because every word in these plots is my building of the world. The cornerstone is the clouds and wind in the sky of this world, the fish in the water, the soil, the green plants, the bougainvillea blooming on the balcony, and the sunset in the group photo...

　　 Without these, the world is incomplete and unconvincing.

　　 Without these, I would write this story without meaning, then I might as well distill the main idea out and tell you in one sentence, and then I can declare the book is over.

　　 I am writing this book, not...or just want to write about how Hu Lai killed all sides in the world of football.

　　 I also want to put my thoughts on football, life, family, children, dreams, love... and many things in a book, a world.

　　 I read the books I like to read, and feel like I am immersed in the world created by the author, unable to extricate myself. When the book is finished, there will be a deep sense of melancholy, feeling empty in my heart.

　　 I felt this way after watching "Fuhan" in one breath for several days.

　　 I wrote my aerial football novel with the idea of ​​"I want to create a world".

　　 So although some plots are unnecessary to some readers, I still want to write them because I know it is necessary.

　　 I have my own persistence and stubbornness on this point.

　　 And do you write too many plots outside of these games? I don’t think it’s too much, it’s necessary to write, not a word is too much.

　　 It is said that from the end of last season's Chinese League to the current China-Korea battle, some readers have counted that there are no matches in how many chapters.

　　 But I am not writing a book based on how many chapters there must be a competition. I arranged the content according to characterization and plot advancement.

From Chapter 66 to Chapter 103, there are only two insignificant matches in the forty chapters. One is the final round of the Chinese Premier League, a ritual match, and the other is a warm-up match for the training team. .

　　 These two games can basically be regarded as no games.

　　 What did I write beyond those two games?

Hu Lai went home to ease the relationship with his parents, tried to reunite with Coach Li, and the interaction and relationship with Li Qingqing gradually progressed; and the new contract with the club was finalized; Hu Lai’s mother and grandfather reconciled; a brief introduction by the opportunity of the World Cup Take a look at the overview of world football; use a game similar to FM Football Manager to visualize Hu Lai’s ability, and at the same time lay the groundwork for the future plot, and the football game itself is also what is necessary to shape the world; from China The attention of the font-size team; Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai's respective future and destiny meet Hu Lai; National Olympic training is equivalent to opening a new copy, new teammates and new roles will appear one after another, using the opportunity of training to continue to develop with Li Qingqing; through Guo Junfu To describe Hu Lai’s current abilities from the perspective of a stellar party; a party not only embodies Hu Lai’s abilities, but also shows his and Li Qingqing’s emotional easter eggs and tacit understanding; through the East Asian Cup, describe the grievances between Chinese football and Korean football in this time and space. , And bring out the two main opponents of this age group in the future...Finally, a blockbuster was born in the Sino-Korea war.

　　 With so much content, I can summarize it in a few hundred words and finish it. It seems that the content of the previous dozens of chapters is really quite good.

　　 But just looking at these generalizations, can you really understand the world and characters in this novel?

Or I can put it another way. When Hu Lai went home and dated Li Qingqing, I would mention a paragraph in the text: "Hu Lai and Li Qingqing had an appointment and had a meal. After the meal, they went shopping and talked about each other." Hu Lai was a little sad and disappointed because Li Qingqing was going to play the World Cup, but he didn’t even know where to open the World Cup... After returning home, Hu Lai received a call from Uncle Yong and told him that the contract was negotiated. So he bid farewell to his parents and returned to the club..."

　　 Is this a novel?

　　 may be, but not the novel I want to write.

　　 The novel I want to write may be a bit cumbersome. I take the trouble to describe things other than the protagonist. From the point of view of serialization, it may be watery and slow in pace.

　　 But when I wrote this book, I thought about the effect of the book as a whole.

　　 I hope that when the time comes, everyone will be willing to watch it again and watch it more times. At that time, when you watch it all at once, you will read more things.

　　 Of course, I also understand the opinions and dissatisfaction of readers. For example, some people say that if there is an outbreak, in fact, everything is nothing.

　　 I agree with this statement 100%.

　　 But the problem is that I can’t write this book with quality and quantity. Let’s not say whether I can do ten or five changes a day. Even if I am asked to do three changes every day, I can’t do it.

　　 I just said that in order to ensure my current quality, the speed cannot be raised. This is a fact.

　　 Quality and quantity, in many cases it is a very helpless paradox.

　　Of course, I also hope that I can change three and four every day, and also ensure that the quality is not slippery.

　　 is just "the concubine can't do it"!

　　Occasionally, I mean occasionally, we can encounter important competitions like this time, and if the deposit permits, we will break out. For me now, even if it is very good...

　　 is basically like this, because it seems to be a bit trivial and messy because it is written wherever I think about it.

　　 After all, this is a single chapter written to chat with you casually, and it is not the same as writing the text of a novel. I don’t need to elaborate the plot of the story, and I don’t have to think about which passage is better to put in front and which passage is better to put in the back. I didn’t even refine the typos...

This is nearly 5,000 words after I finished writing the text for a day, and took the time to write before going to bed-even so, when I write here it is already 1:40 in the morning on August 25th~www. ltnovel.com~ My wife has fallen asleep. Before going to bed, I hugged her and apologized to her. After all, it is strictly the Qixi Festival...

　　 The main purpose of writing this chapter is to hope that we can all understand each other.

　　 When you see that the plot is not advancing at the speed you expected, please don't rush to scold the water. If the chase is more difficult, you can open the automatic subscription to raise it first, one week or one month.

　　All I can guarantee is to write this book as best as I can, and hope that the quality will not drop when the book is finished.

　　 I will create this world according to my plan and rhythm. Everyone must have confidence in me. I will write slowly, and you will see it slowly. I do not design the number of words in advance, nor set the length.

　　 When it's time to end, it ends. It doesn't matter if it is 3 million words or 7 million words.

　　 It’s more than one million words and I haven’t gone abroad. I don’t care about this kind of thing at all, because the story goes smoothly, Hu Lai is growing up, his football career has just started, and his future life is still very long.

　　The road is at your feet, just go, how long is the road?

　　 When I reach the end, I look back. There are rugged and bumpy roads, there are also magnificent legends, and the ordinary life of wild flowers on the roadside.

　　 This is the story of Hu Lai and the world he lives in.

　　At that time, I hope that when you and I leave this world, we will be a little sad, some empty, and a little satisfied.

　　 Thank you.

　　 Finally, I will give you a picture of the starry sky taken by the study window at two o'clock in the middle of the night after I finished writing the chapter yesterday.

　　 Although I didn’t photograph the Milky Way I wanted to photograph, I’m 100% sure that the densest place with stars must be the Milky Way.
