Chapter 179 This Point Is Very Poisonous, You Can Add It In

Ying Male: "Recently I've been researching the design of a new book, and I want to find some poison points and avoid them. Can you help me look?"

Xingfu Ping'an: "Tell me, I've been writing for so many years, and I can tell what is a poison point and what is a good point with my eyes closed."

Ying Male: "Then close your eyes, don't look at the screen, I want to see if you can use telepathy."

Xingfu Ping'an: "???"

Ying Male: "Ahem! Seriously, do you think that the frequent changes of maps in the book are poison points?"

Xingfu Ping'an: "Oh my god! This is a big poison point! And the most terrifying thing about this poison point is that the reader doesn't say it's poisonous, and then he suddenly stops reading. You can only see the subscription drop swish swish swish, but no one says anything. When online literature first emerged, everyone was used to the protagonist changing maps after a period of time in a place, and then regaining interpersonal relationships and new resources. But now it's outdated, and it's a big Poisonous point! "

"The family assets, people and relationships that you have worked hard to save in the beginning suddenly disappear in the end. Readers cannot accept it, and they will run away directly. For example, in my book "My Doomsday Simulator", in the later stage, the protagonist is invincible on Earth, and then it is prepared to let the protagonist break the void and venture into other worlds. Just when there is this sign, the subscription drops sharply after two chapters of breaking into other worlds. Many people abandon the book, so I don't write it anymore. I make the protagonist invincible between heaven and earth and finish the book. Otherwise, the average subscription drops sharply, so it is better to stop while you are ahead."

"So, remember! Don't change the big map! Don't deliberately suppress the protagonist. He was originally very powerful, but suddenly went to the next world and became a loser again. Then after being powerful, he went to the next world and became a loser again. This kind of writing is really poisonous. Today's readers can't accept it. You must avoid this kind of writing in your new book. "

Pu Jie nodded and agreed deeply.

The total subscription of his "Star Legend" could have been higher, but a large number of people would drop instantly when the map was changed.

A group of people leave when the mortal world is promoted to the fairyland.

Another group of people leave when the fairyland is promoted to the godland.

The decline is huge!

Pu Jie feels that most of those who follow the book are new readers attracted by Douyin ads and the TV series "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King". They have never read online novels before. They are like young girls who are too easy to satisfy. They don't have high requirements. They read whatever the author writes. Anyway, it's okay as long as they understand it.

To be honest, if there were not so many new readers, the performance of his "Star Legend" would definitely drop by more than half, and even 10,000 subscriptions would be a bit uncertain. Repeatedly changing maps hurt readers.

After this question, Pu Jie had a general idea. Since changing maps will affect readers' subscriptions, new books should be changed frequently!

You can always find a map you don't like, and finally all of them will be poisoned and run away.

Poison point +1.

Yingmile: "Ping An, when designing the plot of the new book, are there any other poison points that can be added, ahem, avoided?"

Xingfu Ping An: "There are too many! We can't finish talking about them in a few days, but. You have also written a novel with good results. You are not a newbie. Many poison points can be avoided by feeling. Let me directly talk about some. Special poison points, that is, the poison points that you don't feel are very poisonous when designing, but they greatly affect the results."

Yingmile: "That's great! I need these!"

Xingfu Ping An: ". I need them? You need to avoid them, right? People who don't know would think you are going to write a book full of poison points."

Yingmile: "How could it be! Hahaha~haha~ha."

Xingfu Ping An: "What I am going to talk about next are all the dry goods I have summarized after so many years of online writing. Most people don't tell them. If you didn't have a pure heart, a kind heart, and most importantly, a good vision! I wouldn't tell you."

Pu Jie's heart was full of grass mud horses. You were so second-year at the beginning, like a fool!

I once thought you were the sleeping dragon I was looking for, but it turned out to be a real dragon!

What a bad luck!

Fortunately, now I know your true identity, you stinky boss. After you finish telling me, I will directly do a reverse operation, which is absolutely stable!

Pu Jie is good at summarizing, and he is also good at getting up from where he fell.

Knowing that the boss is right, I will do the opposite and will definitely fail.

This logic is impeccable, right?

Ying Ma: "Ping An, you said, I remember it."

Xingfu Ping An: "When you design the plot, you must pay attention to the uniqueness of the protagonist's identity, that is, the identity and adventure of the protagonist in this world are unique, and no one else can copy it. For example, in my book "My Doomsday Simulator", the simulator owned by the protagonist is unique, and no one else has this thing, which highlights the uniqueness of the protagonist."

Ying Ma: "Eh? There is such a saying? I have seen some novels that also have group crossing, group opening game templates, and then competing, helping, fighting, etc."

Xingfu Ping An: "No, this is not what I mean, the two are not contradictory, let me give you an example, if you have a system."

Pu Jie: (*゜ー゜*)

"I don't!"

Xingfu Ping An: "Just suppose you have."

"I really don't!"

Xingfu Ping An: "Just think of yourself as having a system."

"I don't, don't talk nonsense!"

Xingfu Ping An: "."

Ying Ma: "."

The two were silent for a long time.

Happy and safe: "Okay, if I have a system, if I want to be the protagonist of a story, then this system must be unique, so that readers will have a stronger sense of involvement. Only if I have it and you don't have it, I will feel better. Although readers don't say it, they subconsciously hope that the protagonist will be unique. I have it and others have it, which is not cool. As for the group time travel and group gamification you mentioned, look carefully. In fact, the protagonist has special features, such as group time travel. The protagonist's birthplace is in a special location, and he has received a certain inheritance, and the inheritance is unique. This is what makes the protagonist special. Therefore, no one has me. Yes, only when people have their own talents can the special characteristics of the protagonist be reflected. When designing the plot, we must avoid that the protagonist and others are on the same starting line. "

Ying Ma: "Oh, I understand if you say that, but I have a question. Do you really have a system?"

Happiness and peace: "."

Damn it: "."

Happiness and peace: "Then shall I go?"

Ying Ma said: "Ahem. Just keep talking and I will remember it. It will help me a lot!"

Pu Jie has already memorized it.

This is the first time he has heard of the logic mentioned by the God of Peace, but usually everyone uses it subconsciously, but they don't know that the underlying logic is like this.

In this case, Pu Jie will have new ideas.

The protagonist's situation at the beginning is the same as everyone else's, there is nothing special about it.

There are even many people who are just like him, others are earlier than him and more awesome than him.

In this way, readers will feel bored at first glance. Not only is the protagonist not special, he is even an ordinary person.

This kind of persuasion effect has no way to win but there is a way to win!

Wonderful!

Poison points +2.

Happiness and peace: "Finally, I give you my exclusive tip. The perspective of writing a book must be centered around the protagonist, the newcomer. Even many veteran authors will make a mistake, thinking that their own strength can control the group portrait, writing about the protagonist. It's absolutely not okay to disappear for several chapters! You can write about other people's perspectives, but don't describe it too much. Focus on the protagonist. Other people's perspectives also serve the protagonist, otherwise the sense of immersion will be lost and you can control the character. My ability is not very high. I focused on other people and wrote 5 chapters describing the life and experience of a villain. The readers were immediately stunned and ran away. "

"By the way, to add to this point, if you are not a master, you must not write about dual protagonists or multiple protagonists. In fact, masters rarely write like this now. It is difficult to balance the relationship between the characters, and it will affect your novel. Of course, this is not absolute. Once it is written, it may be a masterpiece, but most people, including myself, cannot write it well. We should be realistic and regard this as a poisonous point. "

Ying Ma said: "Hey~~ It makes sense! I am like this when I am reading a book. Once the protagonist disappears, I will rush to the next page. If I can't see the protagonist after turning ten chapters, I will stop reading."

Moreover, in Pu Jie's previous life, he only remembered that "Little Yu'er and Hua Wuque" became popular when writing novels with multiple protagonists.

Haven't seen the others.

The same is true when watching TV series. "A Song of Ice and Fire" in his previous life was so popular, but he couldn't watch it because the world view was too big and the protagonist was unclear, which made him, an old reader of online articles, uncomfortable. I tried it a few times but just couldn’t stand it anymore.

The idea for the next book came to me immediately, and I immediately arranged some random supporting characters to compete for the protagonist's role!

Each supporting character has his or her own story and plot.

Whether enemy or friendly, every character has a backstory.

When one person appears, he or she steals the lead role.

Reader's sense of immersion-N.

Poison points +3.

"Is there more? Is there more? God of Peace will tell you a few more!"
