It's not easy, but I know I've done a good job.
It should have been in 2009. I finished writing "Invisible Killing" at the starting point. I was worried that the planned big stories of the story were not done well enough, and the only near-formed August fire was still full of flaws. I opened the book "Alienation". At the time, I have been keeping an eye on the receipt and release of various clues. Now the outline of "Alienation" has been perfected, but at that time, the beginning of this book had undergone a lot of adjustments. Although it was fine in the small branches, the overall shape of the book was not well done. That was the process I was groping. The first six episodes of "Alienation" were all failures as far as I was concerned. They had done about the same in small details, mid-level clues, and self-consistency in a single episode. However, in terms of the harmony between the single episode and the outline, these episodes are like collage building blocks, which I don't like.
When the seventh episode appeared, I really saw the situation when the clues and outlines of these episodes were agreed. I felt it for granted when I read the works in elementary school and junior high school. At this time, I became a Author, touch and feel its outline.
In the writing of "Alienation", my life and writing itself have experienced such and other problems. It is natural for the book to have problems, but after realizing that feeling, every time I look back, I can't bear the first six episodes of "Alienation". There is no problem with these six episodes in the eyes of readers, but I have always been such an author: I will give you the works if you receive the goods.
Because of this and that awkwardness, I stopped "Alienation" and opened the book "Zuofu".
This book. I wrote with trepidation, not wanting to have the same problems as before, which was the first half of 2011.
There are several simple ideas for the beginning of this book. first. At that time, I naively thought that I was going to write a story like "Invisible Killing". Where are the similarities between the stories? I want to write an invincible person, and the protagonist of Hidden Kill is a killer, so as to break the trick. Invincible and powerful, that son-in-law would write a scheming dog, strategize and solve the overall situation, and kill others smartly. This is an alternative kind of rudeness. I think that I have to think about a lot less. When I actually wrote it, I found that I fell into a pit.
The second idea, I want to write the protagonist on the Golden Palace, in front of everyone, shot the emperor's head. I thought of this as a cool point. Since I opened the book, I have told many people about this picture.
The third idea. I want to rewrite the modern history of China.
The third point is actually the core of the whole book.
But modern history cannot be written, not only because the starting point stipulates that it is not allowed to write about many years, but because with my accumulation of knowledge, I dare not really write about modern history, even if I feel magnificent, thrilling, and evocative in it. , I feel the deepest humiliation, the most generous death and the most tragic struggle, I still dare not write about it, it is not something I can "joking about".
But I can incorporate this feeling into a "fable" that belongs to me.
Overheading the Song Dynasty and separating the framework of the Wu Dynasty is not just for copying poetry. It has many benefits, but the necessary layer is that I want to be part of modern history, so I must not write about the Song Dynasty. certainly. There are certain similarities between the Song Dynasty and modern times. Up to now, these things have been mixed together and cannot be separated. Because, since the Song Dynasty was empty. Then the Song Dynasty might as well write about it.
The seven episodes of the son-in-law, each episode has its own beginnings and turns, there are foreshadowings and breaking points, and each of their episodes is progressive. The first episode is about Ning Yi's gentle vision of entering this world, the second episode is about the complex intrigue in the small environment of the family, the third episode is the peasant uprising, the fourth episode is the wild rebellion, and the fifth episode, looking back on their rebellion, will Look at the big family and seek the cause. Episode 6 is about the struggle between the tragic frontier people and the imperial court. Episode 7 is the struggle between the imperial court and the beginning of the war. By the end of episode 7, everything can be recovered. .
What is this country like, why is it weakened and destroyed. And the protagonist can walk up to the Golden Palace and blow the emperor's head. Of course, the details have been modified.
Because of this reason, it is very difficult to write. The retraction and release of each clue must be clearly seen, deep and shallow, long and short. Many times I write a clear clue to cover up a dark clue. I write A plot often has many aspects to be considered. For example, in disaster relief, I want to write literary dramas, to write about aristocratic families, to show the core of their annexation of land, to kill people, and to keep the protagonists from appearing too much. I want to make the readers feel good, and this part of things can’t be overemphasized, it must be just right.
During the writing period, many people said: "I don't see the need for this part of the plot to be brewing for so long, so the author must be lazy." Don't talk to the readers, and the writers who think less, can't understand.
I once told people that I want to make a breakthrough in online literature, what exactly is that? A traditional book, 300,000 words, the end of a story, at most one million, is a super-long novel, Internet, "Zuofu" is over three million words, half of it is finished, I want to tighten every six million words in the space. For a clue, I wrote something down at random, and I have to consider whether it will appear after dozens of chapters or even a million words. An idea I wrote, I have to consider whether it will have a second layer after the first layer is blasted. Sublimation, or even highlighting the meaning of the third layer when the final book is completed, the human brain can sometimes be a little bit unbearable.
I almost compliment myself after the conclusion of each episode. This episode was successful. It was to urge, encourage, and beat myself. I have succeeded in so many episodes. A few years ago, the split started. People said that you can’t leave bananas or buy them out. I said that I wanted to write “The Son-in-law”. There was another big fluctuation this year, and the contract was directly renewed. Why, I To write "The Son-in-law".
I'm so happy that this three million word thing finally came together at the end of Episode 7.
These things. It's something that belongs to the author's ego, it's my own celebration, some pride and contentment and narcissism, please bear with me.
Then. I still have a harder road to go.
****************
Talk about killing the emperor, and also talk about Ning Yi.
In recent days, many people have said that it is reasonable and unreasonable to kill the emperor from the perspective of interests and the overall situation. Looking at the protagonist, it is like a game. I have accumulated experience points, I have accumulated equipment, I have a base, I want to expand, I am reluctant to throw it away, this is common sense, especially when looking at the Internet, but I want to talk about Ning Yi from the spiritual core this person.
In his conversations with Lao Qin and Cheng Zhouhai, the spiritual core was already there. Ning Yi said: "You do things for morality, and I do things for approval." In fact, it is in the word "agreement" in this sentence.
A person who does things for "identity". What is his spirit like. From ancient times to the present, since modern times, more than 95% of people have not read books, and those who read books and understand reason have become part of the ruling class. This is something that is determined by facts. Therefore, Confucianism says: Heart, make life for the people, follow the sages of the past, and create peace for all generations." This is a great idea. There are so many people in this world, I have to take this responsibility for you, because I am a Confucian. They come out to do things for morality. To save the world, they have the responsibility to do things for the people of the world. What the hell is the world, you bastards.
But "approval", I don't agree with you. To be precise, you deserve to die before you reach a certain level. I have no responsibility for you. What kind of kernel is this? is cold blooded. Is it ruthless? Is it arrogance, is it willful? neither.
It's actually "democracy".
Democracy means that people can make decisions for themselves.
Taking "morality" or "identity" as the core, there are different backgrounds of the times. Before modern times, in a sense, only morality can be the core, because the productive forces have not developed to the level that everyone can be educated , Taking this statement as the standard, under the framework of the Wu Dynasty, it is very impossible for ordinary people to awaken to the level of being "identified" by others. However, Ning Yi is just a person. To put it coldly, his spiritual core is like this. For people who have never awakened, he has compassion and is already very good. If the Wu Dynasty really wants to die, he will really see it very much. Is it heavy
He experienced a failure in life, and when he came to this world, he gradually saw the things he recognized and melted into it. He even started to do things and began to do a "morality" for the world, but in the end, he recognized the good things , Qin Siyuan has the whole world in his heart, and the cry of the soldiers in Xia Village in despair, if their value can at least be preserved, Ning Yi may continue to work, but in the end, everything was shattered, and he was also killed. Added a few slaps.
Looking back at the wedge of the whole book, he sat by the river and watched the failed development project. He succeeded all his life, forgot his former friends and partners, his expectations of making the world a better place, and his wishes passed by. Road... These things were very pretentious at the beginning, but very precious at the end, and in his heart after the rebirth, they were a very heavy lesson. He was born again, and life has value.
So does he care about imperial power? Does he care about profit? Does he care about human life? He doesn't even care about his own life!
He fights for the people and things he agrees with. If he doesn't agree, he can leave, but it's not easy to leave. That's the result. They're all dead, dead!
In some ideas, he wants to compromise for the sake of interests, and he should find a way to ease the situation, because killing the emperor is too fierce, it must be the whole world, it is true, that is a serious matter! Then Ning Yi united all parties, trained soldiers to develop technology, and defeated the two enemies arranged for him by the Banana Demon King, the Jurchen and the Mongols. After the defeat, he established a dynasty with 200 million people, of which 109 million The 19.9 million were still the same kind of people who rushed to the streets to throw feces when Qin Siyuan appeared. Do you think, in Ning Yi's heart, can this country console his former dream
I think he would prefer to hear the cry of ordinary people finally rushing to the enemy after the tragic death of their wife and children. His spirit has such a side.
In the spirit of another layer, for the Wu Dynasty, the Jurchens are coming, and the Mongols may be coming too. In the face of these two forces, especially in the face of Genghis Khan Temujin, in Ning Yi's heart, often Can Gong Kaishen's road be able to turn the tide? broke everything. Without a direction to agree with, what Ning Yi has to do next is very simple. Two words are also the core of the entire lower half.
revolution.
Renew the old life. Transform the people who cannot be independent into the people who can be independent.
He originally agreed with Confucianism and was unwilling to change, because it was difficult, he originally agreed with Qin Siyuan. He didn't want to change either. He just wanted to cooperate and hold back the decline. In the end, all of them failed. He had to come by himself, he came by himself, and that was a completely different path from that era. If it is said that after Qin Siyuan's death, Ning Yi will pick up the pots and pans and fight again, and play innovation and exchange of interests according to their rules and system, then he will really underestimate him.
Once a hero fights with his sword. Another ten-year robbery.
As for the common people, let me tell you a fact that everyone doesn't like to hear. Except for being here, the common people have been respected. In any real history, they are all pigs and sheep, just like us.
Regarding the details of Ning Yi's killing of Zhou Zhe, some things were not detailed. For example, Ning Yi put the knife on Zhou Zhe's head, so other people did not dare to come. For example, some things happened when Ning Yi was delaying time, and in the end he killed Zhou Zhe... These are all omitted, and I may go back and explain later, as for the classmates who didn't know how Ning Yi brought the gun in. Just had to look back.
****************
In the process of writing this book, there are many plots that do not conform to the aesthetics of "ordinary" people. For example, I have said more than once that history, if we look at it, cannot reflect on itself. Whether it is true or not is meaningless. For example, I did not portray Qin Hui as a villain who was hated at first glance, but wrote about the process of his continuous retreat in step-by-step "helplessness". Some people felt that such Qin Hui was not evil enough, and he was reversing the case. But there are also reasons for these.
I have said in some places, "There is always a very important issue of historical concepts, which has been mistaken by a group of people. It is just like when some 'conscientious historical youth' in modern times overturned the case for a certain traitor, others saw that this person was like this Helpless, some people think he is a loyal minister, and some people shout that this is a traitor to overturn the case. They have never been able to analyze, is it innocent to do bad things "as a last resort"? They think this way because they are in life. There are also a lot of "last resorts" in each of them, and everyone has a lot of "last resorts". When they are forced to, they forgive themselves.
They never thought about it. The real problem is that the disappearance of the bottom line of the whole society has caused people in the whole society to forgive themselves easily. In fact, I would like to believe that all the traitors in history became traitors and traitors after easily forgiving themselves.
In life, there are indeed many times when one has to step back as a last resort, but there is a vague line that passes, and it is over. That's what history really has to say. "
I often give an example and have said it many times: In 2010, patriotic youths in Chengdu took to the streets for a parade. They saw a girl in Hanfu upstairs and thought it was a kimono. The person went up and forced mm to take off his clothes on the spot to burn them. This is just a misunderstanding, but it's nothing. The point is that after mm explained, the other party knew that he had made a mistake, but the leader insisted that this mm must take off his clothes and burn them to quell the anger below.
They finally forced the girl to undress in the toilet, then burned it in public and celebrated the victory of the anti-Japanese parade. What I would like to ask everyone to think about is that the organizer of such a march of thousands of people may be a college student. He has such organizational skills in college. When he is out of society, will he easily enter the political and legal institutions and become us A civil servant on the head, and his principles are so cheap, let's assume he gets to Qin Hui's position one day, what can he insist on? And what about ourselves? What can you hold on to
We always say this about the 5,000-year history of China, and sigh that he is so magnificent. In this land, there are so many heroes and sons and daughters, who have established such a splendid culture, but at the same time, there have been so many traitors. , Bad guys, aren't they Han people? In fact, each of us has Qin Hui and Yue Fei at the same time. Many times, you grit your teeth and become Yue Fei, take a step back and become Qin Hui. If you ignore these, you will often become pigs and sheep. And when we feel honored and honored for the achievements of our ancestors, we can also see if we have the qualifications to stand with them.
Such a thing was recorded. Shortly after my son-in-law opened the book, because of my admiration for revolutionary history, a young man came over and said that they only got results by luck. Said they went the wrong way, said they did not leave a good society for themselves, and said their efforts were meaningless. Now it can be said that since the dark environment of modern Chinese history, after generations of humiliation and bloodshed. Countless people searched and struggled, and in the end, a group of people built a future, they built it with hope, and then they may have encountered detours and failures. They faced such a difficult situation and went through such an arduous effort that, in the end, the children and grandchildren who stayed behind complained in front of the computer that what they left behind was not good enough, and then denied their efforts.
Many people became pigs and sheep again.
There are hints in this book. The main thing is to insinuate human nature and kill people. Some people once disliked my behavior, why do you want to kill the people, the people are innocent, the people are innocent, even if you scold the people, there is nothing you can do, because the people are ignorant, this is the law of human nature. Some people may not know what is killing people, that is, the "inferiority" of people. I say this, I'm afraid it's not one or two people who don't like it.
One thing I want to clarify is that. The ignorance of the people is the law of human nature and the weakness of human nature, but in the beginning. People don't use human weakness that way. During the May 4th Movement, when the nation faced enlightenment, a generation such as Lu Xun wrote "weakness of human nature" and "inferiority", not to curse people. Instead, after finding out the limitations of people, I hope to arouse vigilance, revolution, innovation, and improvement, so that people can be autonomous.
But now, the weakness of human nature is used by people to forgive themselves, I am despicable, this is human nature, I am timid, this is human nature, I am tactful and not upright, this is also human nature. In fact, in the evil capitalist society, the only human weakness that is really admired is greed. "Greed is good." No one says that fear of death is good, and fear of death is bad, but it is understandable.
Therefore, there are human innuendos in the book, there are killings of the people, there are intentional ones, and more are random, because that is the normal state of society. But people who care about it, like people who have gradually disliked Lu Xun over the years, are probably because people have denied the necessity of self-innovation.
But I still hope that one day we will become better people. Because a lot of what is written in the book is also my weakness.
****************
I have always hoped to avoid writing too serious or too abstract things. I wrote so much here because the end of the seventh episode is really important. If the above propositions are extended, there will be a lot of things, but stop. .
As usual, it can be said that the next article of the son-in-law will of course not be so serious, but a lot of core will be mixed in, some people can see it, some people can't, then enjoy the plot. The son-in-law has written it up to now, and the updates have been intermittent. The results are good, but the word of mouth varies. This is understandable. Most of the online articles have one theme, and the son-in-law has switched to five or six theme interfaces in a row. Life essays, business and warfare essays, martial arts essays, officialdom essays, war essays, etc., etc., will become farming essays and hegemony essays in the future. A reader who is continuously tested by so many topics will filter down a lot. Some people will say that before It's good-looking, some people say it's in the middle, some people like the later stage, each has their own preferences, it's normal.
Before this book, some people said that bananas are not good at big scenes but try to write a grand era, and this is my big scene. There are comments about success and failure, but I often don't like that kind of rhetoric. Banana has never written big scenes before so bananas are not good at big scenes so bananas should avoid big scenes. This kind of logic is very useless, and it is not smooth. It is not what a real writer should accept, nor what a real reviewer should give me.
I've also never written about war before. I know a lot of people's definitions of war, how to put horses, how to put bows and arrows, how to use spears, what tactics are against what tactics... I've read a lot of books like this, but they don't touch me. I'm not trying to become a Military scientists who read books do not want to gain professional superiority from virtual mouth cannons on the Internet. When I was a child, I read a set of enlightening books on the history of China's modern anti-Japanese war. There are six books in total. All of them describe wars, including tunnel warfare and mine warfare. The plot is still hot.
I can't find that set of books anymore, but now that I think about it, it's just a slightly more formal enlightenment reading. When I look at it now, I may not be able to feel it, but the pictures in the war have been around since my elementary school. I can keep it in my heart, and when I am 30 years old, I can still reproduce it with another content in my own way. This is the transmission of thinking.
So when I write about war. What I describe is Xue Changgong, Mao Yishan, Qu Qing, Yuwen Feidu, Chen Fan, Yue Fei... Only when these people come alive in the hearts of readers, they will be regarded as Genghis Khan, Jamuhe, Chi Laowen, Zonghan People like Zongwang and Zongwang are alive in the hearts of readers, and people can really see their hedges in the wilderness, mountains and forests, and see their tenacity and shouting when every drop of blood is splashed.
Just as only when we are familiar with the Communist Party of China, Liu Bocheng, Deng Xiaoping, Peng Dehuai, Zhu De, and many figures in the Red Army, large and small, will we finally see a million soldiers crossing the river with vigour and vigour.
These are all things to write about in the second half of the book.
****************
In the process of writing this book, I have received the support of many people, and each of my editors has done their best for me. Changtian, Haixing, Black Tea, Qingshan, Sansheng... Some of them are still at the beginning, and some have gone to new places. The intermittentness of this book makes them all very distressed, but every time I update it , they all arranged recommendations for me, I am very grateful, and sometimes even want to say, it may be broken, don't push again. No bonus deductions. The book is not over yet, but at the memorable moment at the end of the first half, I also want to say thank you and sorry.
And even if it wasn't my editor. Some editors also gave comments and help to this book. For example, Wu Dao often discussed the plot with me. When Zhou Tong died, the sentence "If there are heroes in the world, what a pity to see heroes here", it was written by him. Soon he also said, "The chapter in which you killed the emperor. It can be called 'The Dragons Without Heads, Ji'." I was worried about how to name this chapter, but I could use it right away.
I used to want to complete the first half of my son-in-law before I turned 30, but the plan was delayed, and now it has been half a year since I turned 30. Looking back on this half book, it is exhausting. Some people say that bananas like to be lazy. In fact, in any occasion, I dare to say confidently that I am one of the people who worked hard to write books at Qiqi, and I am the time Qi Qi spends on books. One of the longest. Some people also questioned, how did Banana remember the plot, if it were me, I would have to look back every time I started writing. In fact, the content of this book is running in my mind all the time, bothering my spirit, consuming my brain power, and making me sleepless. How can I forget a little bit
I spent almost all my twenties writing books, and when I wrote this, looking back, I never slacked off and did my best. My son-in-law is my current ability, and even this half of the book is enough to comfort me throughout my twenties.
But many times, Duan Geng really can't find an excuse to follow this intermittent book. I know the hard work of all readers, whether it's until now, or those who didn't read it in the middle, I think I have to thank you for your support. .
Next, we may have years of entanglement. Think about it, I really want to wipe a sweat for you.
****************
There is one thing that needs to be said. The online article is undergoing inspection recently. This book has been revised a few days ago, and a few chapters have been deleted in the middle. Although it shouldn't be affected. However, there are still two platform accounts announced here.
WeChat public platform: iangjiao1130.
Sina Weibo: Angry Banana - Starting Point
I don't talk much on it, but when necessary, I may see some information. I hope friends on WeChat or Weibo will pay attention and collect it.

This is a very complacent, narcissistic, and chaotic summary. Thank you for reading this.

At the end of the Wu Dynasty, the years were turbulent, the world was in turmoil, the Jin and Liao were fighting against each other, the situation was turbulent, a century of humiliation, and finally saw the first light of the end.

Back to the previous notice. Well, I wrote it here. (.)
ps: There will be a small chapter later, the finale of the entire first half.
