【Not writing anymore? 】

Jiang Baige could almost imagine the confused look on editor Zhou Zhou's face on the other side of the Internet.

[I will still write it, but I won’t write the entertainment industry article we discussed before. ]

Zhou Zhou seemed to feel a little sorry: [Really? I think the topic you want to write is very good and will be very popular.]

Jiang Baige: [But I still lack some factual basis, and I am afraid that I can't fill in the content of the novel, so I have to give up for the time being.]

After all, there's a galaxy between a good idea and a finished novel.

But Jiang Baige has no interest in "hydrology".

Zhou Zhou asked again: [Do I have to write a long novel? Three hundred thousand words is also a good length. I think that according to the rough outline you gave me, it can be supported.]

But Jiang Baige said firmly: [It’s not enough. The number of words is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that I want the heroine’s growth to be complete.]

A person goes from being unknown to being admired by everyone. If it is a fantasy novel, perhaps all he needs is a perfect family background, many noble people, and constant coincidences to achieve this goal. But if it is realistic, he will be constantly beaten by society, with many ups and downs. In addition to luck, he also needs a stubborn determination to reach his goal no matter what.

Zhou Zhou asked her again: [What do you want to write for the third book? Have you thought about it? ]

Jiang Baige: [I’ve decided to write about a wealthy and overbearing CEO.]

The gap was so huge that Zhou Zhou didn't respond immediately.

But she may have suddenly remembered that Jiang Baige had previously written an article on her second account titled "A Domineering President Falls in Love with Me", and she guessed that because the data of that article was good, Jiang Baige wanted to "copy" that success.

After all, success points directly to money.

But that was not the story Jiang Baige wanted to write.

What she wants to write about is an "atypical" wealthy family. Since the protagonist is a woman, the female lead must be a wealthy family and also the president.

But she can’t be the kind of pitiful wealthy family, such as one that has fallen on hard times, or the adopted daughter of a wealthy family. She is a wealthy heiress, although at the beginning of the story, she must first fall to the bottom.

Likewise, the male supporting characters that appear in the story are not poor men.

She didn't want to write a story about a female president helping poor men. She wanted to write a story about a female president stepping on the "corpses" of several rich men and moving step by step towards a new peak of wealth accumulation.

After listening to Jiang Baige's brief introduction, Zhou Zhou said: "I have a feeling that this article may go viral."

burst?

Jiang Baige no longer dared to think like that. Expectations were really tormenting. The more you wanted, the more disappointed you were.

She would rather go back to the story itself and write it well, as if someone was using her hands to express it.

This doesn't mean that she doesn't have a target reader in mind, but she doesn't want external things - readers, or income, to take precedence over what she wants to write.

That's no different than going to work.

Now that the content to be written had been determined, Jiang Baige spent a week to write the outline.

Although it is impossible to write completely according to the outline, if there is no outline, it may be difficult to guarantee even the completion.

However, unlike the outline she had just started writing, she is now very skilled at this. After determining the characters and the general direction of the plot, she will continue to refine the content, down to the precise key plots to be written.

With such an outline as a guarantee, she can ensure daily updates.

In fact, she knew that Zhou Zhou had high expectations for her. Except for her sophomore year when she stopped updating for a while due to data and readers' comments, she updated her novel every day in the following two years.

Even if she publishes a post on her secondary account at the same time, it will not affect the update of her primary account.

Whenever she was in a slump, Zhou Zhou would always emphasize: "I have been an editor on this website for seven years. Believe me, as long as you keep writing, you will surpass most of the website authors and you will definitely gain something."

Of course, Zhou Zhou's encouragement was based on the fact that she was a student and not a full-time writer, because online novels adapted into films and TV series are just becoming popular now, and almost no one dares to guarantee that full-time writers will not starve to death.

What's more, since ancient times, except for the best - even the best writers, could not support themselves by writing while they were alive.

But she doesn't have to think too much about it now.

In this life, she has been insisting on writing online articles and maintaining a pen name. This alone has surpassed the past ten years.

And she is also constantly increasing her chances of making money...

All of these are to help her accumulate "capital" so that she can smoothly "transform" into a full-time author in the future, or at least make writing her lifelong career.

When school was about to start, Jiang Baige had already successfully saved 100,000 words for his new article.

But both her mother Bai Yunqing and her sister Bai Yang complained about her, saying that she spent the entire holiday writing and did not even take a break during the Chinese New Year.

Now, Bai Yunqing realized that her daughter was determined to pursue writing.

For this purpose, she took out some time to sit down and have a good chat with Jiang Baige.

But although it was called a "heart-to-heart talk", it was actually an analysis of the pros and cons, advising Jiang Baige not to have such unrealistic fantasies and to find a class to attend with peace of mind.

Of course, Bai Yunqing was very skillful. She did not put on the authority of a parent. She was even very understanding and supportive of her writing. However, she always came back to the question, "But you have to eat first before you can continue writing, right?"

She hopes that Jiang Baige can find a less busy job in the future where she can have more free time to write in her spare time.

Jiang Baige smiled and said "OK".

But only she herself knew that in her previous life, she found a job because she believed in such "I want both". However, she was tortured to death by the work and had no time to write novels.

All I can say is that the experiences shared by people who have been through this world are often either that the "experience" is wrong, or that the "experienced person" has walked a different path from you. You'd be a fool if you believed them.

Jiang Baige had finally been given a second chance at life, so it was impossible for her to be a fool again.

But he didn't want to break up with his mother, so he pretended to be perfunctory, only thinking about how to end this unpleasant conversation.

Fortunately, sleepiness found a pillow, and a phone call interrupted their "heart-to-heart talk".

Jiang Baige saw the caller ID: Song Siwen, and immediately knew that the call was very important. She picked up the phone and asked, "How is your postgraduate entrance examination going?"

When Bai Yunxi heard the word "graduate school entrance examination", she naturally knew that this was a big deal and walked away tactfully.

Song Siwen seemed to have just experienced a frenzy or ecstasy, and was still panting and had not yet calmed down. Jiang Baige had no choice but to control his temper and wait.

Finally, Song Siwen spoke: "Bai Ge, I called you because of this matter. I want to ask for your help..."

Before she finished speaking, she gasped again, leaving Jiang Baige hanging in the air.

Jiang Baige just wanted to rush up to Song Siwen and punch her to yell out everything she had in her mind.
