I Wish You All a Happy New Year! All the Best!

First of all, I wish you all a happy Year of the Tiger, and may all your wishes come true. May the new year be prosperous and vigorous!

Then I would also like to take this opportunity to talk about my current situation and the main problems of this book.

The original idea of ​​this book is actually quite simple. I felt that the plot of the richest man in the urban background actually had a lot of content that could not be written, so I wanted to change the background and try some higher-level excitement, such as the war between chaebols or a plot that is more bizarre than reality that may happen in an extreme background.

But I think the biggest mistake is that I wrote too hastily, and I was not well prepared. I should not have started the book seamlessly, and I should have taken a break for at least half a year.

This may be because when the richest man was finished, my creative state had a tendency of returning to the past, so I felt good about myself and felt that the new book could be written smoothly and quickly, so I wrote more than 10,000 words a day at that time, which was too demanding.

But looking back, I found that because I wrote too hastily, many of the world view settings I designed had already buried the content and excitement, but in the end I did not write the effect I wanted at all, so that the whole creative rhythm became chaotic, and then I fell into a kind of confusion.

Then, one month after the book was put on the shelves, due to the accumulation of long-term fatigue, I had minor problems, especially after having a fever for two days, I found that my physical and mental state fell into a long-term depression, and suddenly entered a long-term creative trough.

Of course, this subject matter itself has problems. For example, some content may still have the risk of touching the line, or because this extreme setting is relatively out of touch with reality, it is not very grounded, etc., and it is not smooth to write.

In addition, because there are relatively homogeneous places with the richest man, I found that many of the contents used in the richest man are not used in this book, and they are not used. If they are used, it is equivalent to repetition, but if they are not used, the plot needs some similar content, which is very entangled.

Under the superposition of various reasons, I wrote very painfully and confused.

So I think I should stop and reflect on my past creations, and think about how and what I should write.

I never think that I am a very good author. Sometimes I write good works just because I am lucky and happen to come across them.

I often tell myself to be prepared that a certain book is the highest point of your creation in this life, and to accept the possibility that perhaps any book you write later will not be higher than this book.

Sometimes I feel guilty because I can't write every book that is excellent like many authors. I have a lot of ideas in my mind, but maybe 99% of them are garbage. Readers support me because of trust, but I find that what I write is far from my original expectations, which makes me feel very tormented.

So, looking back on my years as an online writer, looking back on those few successful and mostly failed works, I think I should reflect and make some changes.

The richest man was completed smoothly, which I am quite fortunate about. At least my low point in the creative state did not affect its ending. I think I should give up the original model and make some new efforts and attempts seriously and down-to-earth.

At present, I will spend some more time to organize this book, pick a few of my favorite plots in the initial outline, and then use the outline to string them together. The main reason is that I was a little anxious at the beginning, and the plot was a little distorted. It is basically impossible to turn it back. It can be regarded as an outline escape, so as to let everyone see the whole picture of the whole story as much as possible.

It is not possible to finish writing all of them, mainly because I can't write anything exciting or fun, let alone let readers feel fun.

I originally wanted to stop in the comfort zone and organize this book, but I didn't expect it to be comfortable at all, but painful.

So I want to step out of my comfort zone and try something new. The new book is being prepared and may be released after the Spring Festival holiday. You don't have to expect too much, anyway, it is still possible that it will not be written well, but no matter what, I will work hard and carefully write every chapter and every plot, and will not make the same mistakes again, or make new mistakes.

I apologize to everyone again, and wish you all a happy new year and all the best!
