Chapter 81 - On the Shelves

Eating, singing, and suddenly I was cut off by editor Yun Ge.

Failed the PK, no more recommendations, time to put it on the shelves.

I was a little surprised. I remember the follow-up reads on Tuesday were over 4300. I thought it was quite stable. I put all the updates together in the evening the past few days. I didn't expect the big shots at the same time to be too strong!

Facepalm

...

Taking this opportunity, let's chat as usual.

First, let's talk about the reason for starting this book. Many friends should have come from my previous two books. I wrote two Dou Po books. Although they were both finished, neither of them reached the Great Thousand, and I always felt imperfect.

I previously solicited everyone's opinions, and the majority wanted to read Dou Po, so we hit it off and started the book.

I can guarantee here that this book will definitely have the Great Thousand, with a beginning and an end!

...

Actually, before starting this book, I also talked with the editor. The editor said that the concept of pre-borrowing is difficult to write in fan fiction because what you pre-borrow may not be suitable in the eyes of many readers, and dashed expectations can easily lead to disagreements.

There are also some things outside the world that everyone might suddenly think, Oh, that's a good thing to pre-borrow, but in reality, it's not feasible. You have to consider the follow-up and the reader's experience. In the worldview of Dou Po, you have to write around Dou Po, and in the world of Douluo, you have to write around Douluo. Try not to introduce anything too abrupt.

To summarize in one sentence, adaptation is not random creation.

I said, It's okay, I'll try my best.

At that time, I was prepared for the results to be poor and to put it on the shelves on April 1st, which was just over 100,000 words. I could also earn an extra month's full attendance. I even told a few group members about this.

I never expected that the results would be decent so far. It reached twenty-fourth on the overall new book list and fifth in the light novel category. It also received all the recommendations it should have.

Except for this small regret at the end.

...

Back to the main topic, let's talk about what everyone is concerned about.

① On-shelf time: Tomorrow at 12 noon. It might be delayed or a few minutes early, which is normal.

Updates after going on the shelves—

The notification was quite sudden, and I didn't prepare too many drafts. After officially entering V, there will be a minimum of five updates tomorrow, only more, not less.

If the initial subscription reaches 2k, the minimum monthly update will be 200,000 words, which is more than 6k words per day.

If it performs exceptionally well and the initial subscription reaches 3k, the minimum monthly update will be 250,000 words.

Originally, I planned to challenge writing 10,000 words a day for a month, but I thought it would be safer to be steady.

The reason I mentioned the word count and not the number of chapters is that I might combine chapters later to boost the average subscription. After going on the shelves, recommendations only look at the average subscription.

② Regarding extra updates

Some group members have privately messaged me about this, so let's set one.

For rewards, an extra chapter will be added for every 20,000 fan points. If there is an Alliance Leader, six extra chapters will be added. A Silver Alliance Leader is just a fantasy, I haven't seen one yet. If there really is one, counting it as ten or fifteen Alliance Leaders is fine.

Regarding results, starting from the average subscription on the day it goes on the shelves, an extra chapter will be added for every three hundred increase in average subscription. This can only be seen in the author's backend. Friends who are curious can @ me in the group from time to time, and I will send screenshots to ensure there is no cheating.

Monthly ticket extra updates: An extra chapter will be added for every five hundred new monthly tickets.

③ Regarding the female lead

The female lead is basically decided, but seeing that Qing Lin's popularity is quite high, I will see the reaction later.

Besides Qing Lin, I probably won't consider adding any more female characters from the Dou Qi Continent.

As for the Great Thousand...

That's still far away. To be honest, I haven't even sorted out the outline for that part...

④ Regarding the plot

I saw a comment before that said the protagonist doesn't strive for dominance, doesn't indulge in debauchery, and doesn't compete for opportunities.

How should I put it? Actually, in my mind, before leaving Jia Nan Academy, it was still the development period, a process of growth, not just in terms of strength, but also age. Speeding up the transition these past few days was also to hit a time point and go on the shelves when leaving Jia Nan Academy. Unfortunately, it was a bit sudden.

As for debauchery, being less than fourteen years old, striving for dominance, and engaging in such activities sounds too disjointed.

I'm too lazy to explain the competition for opportunities.

In my outline, there is an original plot about the north of the continent. It won't be too long, but it will serve as an embellishment.

Of course, it also depends on the subsequent reaction. If the reaction is good, I might write a little more.

...

That's roughly it.

Once again, thank you to every reader for your support during this time. It is your recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, comments, and rewards that have allowed this book to go through the recommendation process and be successfully put on the shelves.

The threshold for writing is very low, which is evident from the more than 20 million authors nationwide. However, writing is also quite difficult. Readers have different preferred styles and writing styles, which can easily lead to a situation where one person's treasure is another person's poison. Even in the comment sections of books by platinum-level great gods, there are many people who curse.

On this point, I am quite open-minded. If what I write can make readers feel that the satisfactory parts outweigh the disappointing parts, it can be considered a success.

Of course, sometimes my brain short-circuits and I encounter some issues that I haven't fully considered. Please point them out, and I will try my best to revise them.

That's all~

Finally, if you're passing by, please consider subscribing for the first chapter!

In a game I enjoy playing, there's a saying: "See you tomorrow is the most beautiful wish in this world."

So, I'll end with that.

We'll see you tomorrow!
