End of the Testimonials and Q&A

Three and a half years have passed, and the book "Warhammer Throne" or "The Proof of the Sun King" has finally come to an end. It is really not easy to finish a novel with six million words. It can be said that writing I encountered a lot of problems along the way of this book, made many mistakes, and the plot also had a lot of runaway places. It is really lucky to be able to finish the book smoothly in the end.

Then, next, I will answer the questions and opinions of the readers' grandparents on this book in the form of questions and answers. If you don't see the questions you want to know, you can use this chapter to say a message in this position. Questions, I will issue a 2.0 series to answer later.

Question: Why did you write a so-called hammer article? What is the motivation?

Answer: The motivation is actually very simple. I believe that readers can read many fragments that seem familiar and have a strong sense of déjà vu from my articles. Personally, I like Mr. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings series of novels very much. I have read a lot of them. I have always been very interested in writing something about western fantasy. At the starting point, there are two novels that have had a great influence on me. The first book is "Shadow God Seat" by Yu Yunfei (yes , the name of Warhammer God Seat was moved from this book) The second book is "Master of the Abyss" by Zhu Shengfutu (this book is of high quality, wonderful plot, and fascinating content). It was the past and the future, and then DND, the Witcher 3 game.

West Fantasy is set, what is the opportunity to choose the theme of Warhammer? It was about the summer vacation of 2017. My last Japanese entertainment novel "The Poem of Nogizaka" was blocked due to force majeure. Afterwards, I continued to complain that there was no hope of unblocking it. I was disheartened and had a lot of free time at the same time. At this time, I played "Total War: Warhammer". I have always been a loyal player of the Total War series. After playing for a while, I was attracted by this theme.

At this time, I was a layman, and I was very interested in the subject of hammer, so I searched for information everywhere, posting it, blogging, station B, and even went to the external network to read the Warhammer Wiki 1d4chan, not only read some first-hand information, I also saw a lot of second-hand goods, third-hand rubbish, fourth-hand dung, and a lot of shit mountains that were spread to China by word of mouth and performed by a lot of people for about 114,514 times. These things have an impact on my subsequent creations, I can only say It was very difficult to obtain information at that time, and we could only believe what we read.

In the process, I watched 40K again, and a bold idea popped up at that time.

So there is this book.

Question: Since the theme of hammer was chosen, why did you write about the harem? Don't you feel conflicted?

Answer: I want to emphasize here that I did not choose to write about the harem in the theme of Warhammer, but I chose the theme of Warhammer to write about the harem of Western Fantasy! This is very important! Very important! Very important! Say it three times!

I have always been a staunch lover of harem literature, and I firmly follow the footsteps of the chicken fork boss. The reason why I chose the theme of Western Fantasy Harem is that although this theme is niche, it is not "sensitive". Remember, I choose Western Fantasy The harem first, choose the hammer theme second!

My main purpose is not to write Hammer, but to write Western Fantasy Harem!

I want to find a subject that I can write about the stocking harem to my heart's content, hehehe, one book is enough!

Question: Many people complain that your book is not "hammer-flavored" enough, it's just a third-rate piece of rubbish under the skin of a hammer.

A: Isn't it? ? ? ! ! ! (laugh)

Originally, it was just a third-rate novel about Western Fantasy Harem garbage written by myself in a hammer skin. I never put gold on my face, but I do have something to say about the so-called "hammer taste".

When I first started writing this book, what I wanted was a "hodgepodge", but later I found that I couldn't control it, and then I started to make up a lot of Warhammer content, mainly writing the hammer plot.

But the more I write, the more I find that the so-called "hammer taste" is mainly hope in despair, the light of humanity in "dark♂deep♂Fantasy", which is very good, but unfortunately, this thing is written like me The core of Xiaobai's online article is "cool" conflict.

At this time, a choice must be made, whether to ignore the market and stick to the niche circle, or to give up the core fans who specialize in watching "Hammer Wen" and go popular?

I want to stick to it.

To be honest, as many people "come here for hammer", many more radical hammer fans really let me see their fanatical love for hammer.

When I wrote about two or three hundred chapters, a few senior hammer friends came, and they communicated well at first, and answered many of my questions. I was very happy at the time, and another big boss came, and someone Help me read the text and correct it, good!

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. With the development of the plot, the boss gradually became more and more dissatisfied with my so-called "interpretation" and "magic reform", and finally ended in a fierce quarrel. After confirming that reconciliation is impossible, I can only "invite" the boss out, and I feel very uncomfortable.

Is the boss wrong? In fact, that's right, he just wanted a novel full of "hammer flavor" that met his needs.

Am I wrong? In fact, I think I'm right, this is a third-rate novel aimed at writing Western Fantasy Harem and making money.

These two are in serious conflict, or my writing skills are not enough to control these two conflicting elements.

From then on, under the two irreconcilable contradictions, I finally made up my mind to resolutely popularize the writing.

I also want to say sorry to some core fans and fans who only come for the content of Warhammer. I believe that there are so many authors writing about Warhammer on the whole network, and you will definitely find the articles you like.

I also say sorry to those who criticized me for ruining this subject, but since I am already a "rare dog certified by the imperial army", please let me go, the imperial army has already certified me with my real name , It became like this, everyone didn't want it!

Q: Have you ever thought of writing 6 million words? How can I write so long?

Answer: Actually, I didn’t expect it. As we all know, this book didn’t have an outline. The outline I designed before was only one or two million words. I really didn’t expect to have such a result. A new outline has been drawn up, but it is only until the protagonist captures Mu Xilong and becomes king.

As for the Raiders of Bafeng Mountain, it was planned very early. In order to improve the plot and maintain the serialization, I spent a long time after Ryan became the Duke of Musillon.

When I finished writing the Raiders of Bafeng Mountain, I found it embarrassing, there is no outline for these.

I have to say that daily high-intensity updates for web serialization are indeed torture. Later, the mentality of dealing with business issues gradually rises, and the things in the stomach are also emptied, and there is no outline, so it is very uncomfortable to write, very special Uncomfortable, after the Bafeng Mountain Raiders, I admit that I have been in the water for a long time, and this is my problem.

Looking back now, in fact, many, many plots do not have much meaning, they are too watery, so they can be omitted or even omitted.

It’s just that I couldn’t help it at the time. It was too tiring to search for information while conceiving the plot while serializing, and the influence of various real things.

In the end, I couldn’t write anymore, but the story was still unfinished. I was so tired that I relied on playing tricks and carrying private goods to maintain my enthusiasm for writing. I was criticized by many book friends in the later stage. Admittedly, it was indeed my fault, I should have made the outline earlier.

Writing this kind of thing, it is impossible not to add private goods. After having a platform, everyone has the desire to express, it’s all about whether they can restrain it. I really like it, it's the great author of his crazy fans, little fans, I won't say who it is, it really sounded the alarm for me.

Question: I came here for the 40K and Primarch plots, why do the later 40K plots and Primarch plots become less and less?

Answer: 40k is a gimmick and the backstage of the protagonist, not the main text. If I write too much, it will overwhelm the audience and affect the rhythm of the narrative. I didn't plan to write too much.

And for the same reasons as above, 40k is a very complex, very much content, and a giant suture that needs to be studied and studied carefully. After I wrote some, I really felt the fanatical love and loyalty of some senior hammer fans for Warhammer. Beliefs, criticizing these are all considered good. When I was a layman in the early days, I cut out three sentences in the group and sent them to other groups to laugh at the paratroopers. The author does not know how to pretend to be a joke. There are many more dirty things. After a long time, I also began to hate writing too much 40k and original body content.

And the original body has too many personalities that are very complicated and profound. I mainly rely on the small slices of many official novels, the popular science videos of many up masters at station B, and the analysis of some post bar bosses and a few Hammers I know to interpret the character of the characters. As we all know , There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people. I can only restore them according to my understanding and my writing skills. I am not the official author of the black library with a halo, so basically it is thankless.

The funniest thing is that some readers once came to meet me in the group. As we all know, my stuff is not second-hand stuff that I made up by myself after reading the original materials, or third-hand rubbish that I made up after listening to storytelling, interpretation and translation.

And this reader is even more critical. In his mind are a bunch of "shit mountains" left after layers of deductions, interpretations, and jokes are fermented. Using these things to argue with me, I found that the two of us are not talking at all. something.

At this time, I realized that some opinions don't need to be taken seriously.

After that, I read an article on a certain platform about the yin and yang of a big guy with translation questions, meaning that there was an official novel that was poorly written. He emphasized that "I know this author has won a prize" and "I know this author is very capable. It is the source of many sci-fi settings." "I know that the author's good plot concept is the official trump card." "But I still think that the things he wrote are not hammery, which is not what I want."

I also read it, write less 40k, and write as I think, so in the end some primarchs were not taken back, forgive me.

Q: Was the ending a little rushed?

Answer: There is no doubt that the finale is a bit rushed and incomplete, mainly for three reasons.

One, I really can't continue writing. As we all know, the climax of this book is over. The weakness in the later stage of Zhong Tian's writing is an old problem, and I am very tired from writing.

Two, on the 19th, that is, tomorrow I will go to closed training for a period of time, closed from 9 to 5 all day, and will not have time to write, so I must end it quickly.

Three, what should be explained and what should be written is almost the same. In the end, it is an old routine. Justice must defeat evil, so there is no need to write it in detail.

Q: Any plans for the next book? What theme? What time?

Answer: I have a plan for the next book, but not so soon. This time I was certified as a rare dog by the imperial army, which sounded the alarm for me. My plan for the next book is to stitch some original settings and learn from this book. The question of the outline, so it takes enough time to prepare, and it is expected to be by the end of the year.

The theme is expected to still be Western Fantasy, but it will be stitched with some other elements, such as the anti-system, such as stars, such as Heroes, such as DND, which may be a bit hammered, but I don’t admit it! ! !

This is a lord farming article, the main body of the next book will be adventure, the farming content will be reduced a lot, and only a small part will be kept.

Do you want to continue with the harem stockings? I can say 100% yes, but I will definitely learn the lessons of this book. The number of heroines should be reduced, and the characters should be as bright as possible to ensure personal characteristics and personal plot lines, especially not like this book. After the plot, this is inferior. At present, four characters have been thought up, and in principle, try not to exceed six or seven.

The new book also wants to challenge heroines like King Ada and Kuang San.

And I want to emphasize again that Ryan in this book has no personality traits and is completely a tool to satisfy readers' desires. The protagonist of the next book is different. The protagonist of the next book is a guy with a very individual character. I like it (laughs).

Question: Regarding Teresa's father, what happened to Aurora's husband? Why didn't I explain it later?

Answer: In fact, this is the foreshadowing of a super-large plot dungeon in the later stage. Originally, I wanted to design a super-large plot dungeon in which the ancient ancient holy relics were excavated and all the forces participated in it. Later, I gave up because there was not enough space, so naturally there was no The following is over, and Aurora was not originally planned... (bracket laugh).

Q: Will there be a future talk with you to understand?

Answer: There will be bread, there will be milk, and everything will be fine! Do you think Brother Tianzi lied to you? Brother Tianzi, my credit is as high as that of Brother Quin!

Finally, I would like to thank my editor, Jiang Cha, and the four editors who left successively (I survived four editors!)
