But no matter how well they rise to prominence, most authors take it one step at a time.
But this guy's pen name is "Stir-fried Cucumber".
Since he published his first book, his new books have consistently broken records.
Although he didn't say anything in the group chat.
However, it has already become a hot topic of discussion within the industry.
Just this week, someone compiled statistics on the increase in the number of items collected on the top-ranked lists.
Generally, a newly signed book, with strong recommendations, can gain about 2000 new book favorites.
Better authors can see an increase of 3000.
The expert can increase it by 4000.
The game "Zhu Xian," which can be described as "stir-fried cucumber," saw its collection count increase by 8000 directly, as found through the ranking and collection data.
In other words.
From the publication of the book "Stir-fried Cucumber" to its recommendation, a single recommendation can garner over 10,000 favorites.
[Brother Cucumber, tell me the truth, are you really a newbie?]
[It's genuine, no doubt about it. Would you like to video chat with us?]
I believe you.
The muscular guy nodded repeatedly.
After finishing his chat with Qiao Yu, Da Jiba went to Feiyun.com.
Feiyun.com is a forum that online novel authors like to visit; it's considered a forum within the online novel community.
In this forum.
It includes gossip among authors, industry news, discussions on writing techniques, and more.
Then, Big Muscle Man started a thread.
[Book Title: Zhu Xian]
[Author: Stir-fried Cucumber]
I'm wondering if this book has the potential to become a legendary work!
In reality, most online novel authors are otaku (geeks).
They often write alone at home.
You can ask them if they're bored.
It's not boring at all.
Because writing itself is a very enjoyable and stress-relieving activity... it's just that it can easily lead to mental fatigue, especially for those who are a decade or more older...
Moreover, this industry is quite vibrant and has the support of the internet.
Feiyun.com, as the largest online literature forum in China, gathers countless authors in the industry.
not only.
Some top-tier authors, platinum-level writers... they all work on this website.
That's why this website is very popular.
"Big Muscle Man" posted the message, and soon people replied to it.
"To be hailed as a god with a single book? Dream on."
[OP, did you write this book?]
[It seems this book is getting some attention, not bad, not bad. I saw some data for this book, and its performance has indeed been strong after it was recommended. However, it's almost impossible for a single book to become a classic.]
[The person upstairs is right. Treating him like a big shot? I've read the book, and it's indeed not bad. But honestly, it's just decent writing. What innovations has he made? What genre has he created? To call him a god? Do you really think being a god is that simple?]
Needless to say.
"Big Muscle King's" post was not well received by others.
Stir-fried cucumber? What a bizarre pen name, I've never even heard of it before, you're obviously a newbie.
A new author becoming a legend with a single book? What a load of rubbish!
"Big Muscle Man" didn't bother to defend himself.
Although he also felt that he might have exaggerated a bit when he posted this.
But he always felt that the book was not as simple as he had imagined.
Although he wasn't very good at writing books, he loved it.
He can tell whether a book is good or bad.
At least after he read the book carefully, he felt that it was completely different from other books.
Although it doesn't seem like any new school of thought was created.
But the overall writing style seems to have opened up a new path.
But to be specific, "Big Muscle Master" himself didn't write very well and couldn't summarize much.
But he knew he was about to witness the rise of a landmark online novel.
……
I'm constantly asking for support, likes, and data!
43. Sang Zhi's Little Thoughts; Playing Billiards in Black Stockings (Free)
"Drip! Drip! Drip!"
My phone beeped with a message notification.
Qiao Yu thought it was another "muscle hog" message, but when he clicked on it, he found it was a message from Sang Zhi.
【What are you doing? 】
People often say that if someone asks you what you're doing, the subtext is that they miss you.
Qiao Yu replied directly.
Missing me?
Then she lay back on the bed and grinned. Could it be that the little girl couldn't hold back anymore?
Half an hour later, the beeping sound rang out again.
Did he reply to the message?
Qiao Yu clicked on it out of curiosity.
It was a group message sent by their class monitor.
Hey everyone, the holidays are almost here! Let's have one last hurrah! Anyone going to karaoke tonight? Sign up!
Several boys and girls replied.
Count me in.
The class monitor continued sending messages.
[@Sangzhi @Ningwei, let's do it together!]
Then a boy and two girls responded.
[Yeah, let's all go and have some fun together! We won't see each other for several days after the holiday.]
As the class beauty, Sang Zhi has always been the center of attention, so it's perfectly normal for her to be invited.
But at this moment, Qiao Yu received a message from Sang Zhi.
[Qiao Yu, are you going to karaoke tonight?]
What do you mean?
You're asking me if I'm going? Girl, your meaning is way too obvious.
Qiao Yu's reply was concise and to the point.
【Don’t go! 】
After thinking for a moment, he added another explanation.
My roommate is treating me to dinner tonight!
Oh! Then I won't go either!
Sang Zhi replied quickly, seemingly having been glued to her phone the whole time.
Soon, Qiao Yu saw Sang Zhi's reply in the class group.
Thank you, but I don't like it because it's too noisy.
Thank you, but I'm not going.
As Sang Zhi's best friend, Ning Wei naturally sided with her.
Okay then, those of you who are going, please meet at the south gate of the school at 9 PM tonight.
Immediately, more than a dozen male and female classmates responded in the group chat.
Not long after, Sang Zhi sent another message.
[Qiao Yu, what are you doing? I'm so bored!]
Uh……
Qiao Yu was speechless. Was this a signal that he should ask her out?
Heroine, that's very unreserved.
Just then, Zheng Qianli, who was lying around in the dormitory, suggested, "Qiao Yu, let's go play pool!"
There's a billiards hall outside the south gate of the school, which is usually frequented by university students.
