Let me think about what else I want to say.
This article is my painstaking effort.
At the very beginning, I just wanted to write a story about my past and present life. This is my personal innocence and love for several lifetimes. This kind of subject matter has been written too much in ancient styles, but it is rarely seen in modern romance. I am a person who likes to write on different subjects. Just one night, I wrote a special episode.
Yes, it was really Fan Wai at first, that is, the Fan Wai of King Xiao Nanchen and Eleven.
It is precisely because of the imperfect extra that I have the motivation to continue writing the story to completion.
After reading the story, you will find that in this story, a very important city is Xi'an. Many readers have asked me if I am from Xi'an because of this. No, really not. Why is Xi'an? Because on the opening night, I was listening to the song "Let's See Chang'an". Chang'an, the world’s “long-lasting peace and stability”, is the capital of many dynasties. Now that thousands of years have passed, the city is still there, but Chang'an is no longer seen. Isn’t it? laugh.
When the story began in Chang'an, it was naturally overwhelmed with a sense of vicissitudes. I like this feeling very much.
In this story, Shi Yi always remembers the past, but Zhou Shengchen forgets it. This can easily bring up a question, is such persistence worth it? Personally, I really don’t like the argument of “whoever loves first, lose first”. Why should you calculate like this when you give. To me, love and be loved, whether you give or not, are actually your personal attachments, and Others have nothing to do. Seven emotions and six desires, to put it bluntly, are also personal obsessions. Since Shiyi is obsessed with loving Zhou Shengchen, why should he care about whether he can get rewards? In this life, he can appear and is no longer a memory, then It is considered complete.
I am a screenwriter, so I write articles very fast, but for this article, I still dare not write too fast. In the process of writing, I want to ponder every word and sentence too much, but at the same time I dare not write too slowly, for fear that I will lose the original feeling and make the whole story incoherent.
So, from the beginning, shelving, to the end, I just stumbled and thought about it for a year and a half.
Slow down? Yes, but I enjoyed writing so much. It was really a process of enjoyment, so that at the end of the story, I was sad for a few weeks and couldn’t jump out...
This postscript was written one month after the end, and I still feel sad. This story really ended like this for me.
In fact, I didn't want to write the postscript at first. It was the editor of Hu Chen who was intimidated and lured, and asked me to write a preface or postscript. I asked her strangely, is it popular to write this in books now? She gave me an unexpected answer, she said, she wanted to see it.
Okay, that's what moved me... Then I added such a small piece of self-talk.
There is another person who is also very important. My dear He Yajuan, she is the person who first communicated with me about the simplified version of this book. At that time, I remembered that the Vietnamese version had already been negotiated. I didn't contact any simplified Chinese publishers. I was always waiting for someone who could patiently read this story and was willing to do it, and then she appeared. Sure enough, sometimes, you must have the patience to wait before you meet your real companions.
Also, thank you to all my lovely and gentle readers who have accompanied this pseudonym over the past two years. Love you guys.
