To this day.

Thank you all readers for your continued reading, rewards, monthly votes, and recommendation votes.

I would like to thank my editor, Ziliang, for his patience in helping me analyze the data and report recommendations.
Thanks to China Literature Group for providing this writing platform.
Thank you to the party, thank you to the country, thank you to the people.

To be honest, this book is the one I have received the best feedback from readers during the free period.
There are almost no negative comments in the comment section.
There are also monthly passes, recommendation tickets, and a lot of rewards. (compared to previous books)
It’s okay to follow up on the reading.
But just after tens of thousands of words, bad signs began to appear.
The book's uptake was poor, and collection growth was quite difficult.
Maybe it’s because of the choice of subject matter.
It's also possible that my writing isn't good enough.
All in all, there could be many reasons.
But that's how it turned out.
At that time, I was still comforting myself.
I feel that everything will be fine when I push 100,000 words intelligently.
According to the rules of Qidian’s new book free period, there will be a wave of relatively powerful recommendations around 110,000 to 20,000 words. Generally speaking, this recommendation is included in every book and can increase your collection.
Many books are collected by thousands or even tens of thousands every day.
Before 100,000 words, I had been looking forward to this day.
Thinking that I can use this opportunity to reverse the decline in gains and losses, ride on the wind, and take off all the way.
But it's a pity.
My smart phone came, but the effect was quite poor.
The bad sign of poor absorption when it was tens of thousands of words has finally continued to the present, leading to an even worse situation.
Let alone thousands of gains and losses, not even a few hundred.
On the highest day, it only increased by 300 and could not be collected.
Moreover, this is not just the function of simple intelligent push.
It also contains the effects of other recommended positions.
Because the effect was so poor, I very much doubted whether my smart push was really working.
In other words, it is gathering strength, silently gathering strength, preparing to hold back a big wave for me.
I imagine that one day when I wake up and open the Writer Assistant to check the data, the collection in the background will experience a huge increase.
But this day has not come yet.
One sunny morning.
I opened QQ and clicked on the window of my editor boss.
With trepidation, I typed the next line.
After double checking, confirm sending.
Me: "Boss, is my smart push a bit bad?"
"The price increased by more than 100 the day before yesterday, and it was in the dozens yesterday. Today, I estimate it will be around 300."
Edit: "?"
"Why do you count by hundreds?"
Me: "..." Editor: "Don't panic, your smart recommendation should still be related within the category and has not been classified yet, please wait."
Me: "Okay! Watch me take off!"
……
I felt much more at ease.
Keep thinking that things will get better.
Everything is just darkness before dawn.
However, bad signs continue to persist.
The vague hope seems to come tomorrow, and I am constantly waiting for tomorrow.
I became more and more anxious and worried about gains and losses, so much so that I didn't sleep well for many days in a row.
But it still didn't come.
Smart push seems to have been classified, but the effect is still tepid.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
I originally thought that after the classification, there would be a surge in collections.
The signs of bad results will continue day after day, and continue backwards, eventually forming a bad result.
The one-day rise and close of less than 300 was originally thought to be just the beginning.
Unexpectedly, it was already at its peak.
It was not until it was about to be put on the shelves that I wrote 180,000 words and barely reached 3,000 collections.
I originally thought I could make a dream start with a high initial booking.
As a result, it went round and round, and in the end, I still made a low down payment to start the game.
I asked the editor boss to read it.
It's like 400 now, maybe the first order will be 200 or 300?
Hahahahahaha...
Maybe, this is life.
Unsatisfactory things will always happen nine times out of ten.
After all, I can't be like many protagonists in novels.
Once you have a goal, you can make great progress toward it.
Along the way, I received flowers, applause, cheers, etc., all kinds of positive feedback.
Looking at the approaching goal, with high and enthusiastic fighting spirit, the confidence and determination in my heart arise spontaneously.
Shout loudly: "I am born with talent that will be useful, and I will come back after all my money is gone!"
"Writing a book? Isn't it just a matter of having hands?"
"Exquisite products, tens of thousands of orders are at your fingertips!"
"Great God Platinum, would you rather have the seed?"
"I will definitely replace you one day!"
……
Not only writing books, but my own job seemed to be in trouble.
The feeling of frustration after all kinds of efforts but getting nothing.
Just like sunrise and sunset, it comes every day.
They are constantly destroying my self-confidence, eroding my will, and denying my path.
They are like nightmares, following us everywhere and lingering.
I waved my fists, trying to defeat them, but in vain.
I want to break the situation, but I can't find the focus. I always spend a lot of effort but have little effect.
I felt like I was walking on a rough road shrouded in fog and darkness.
Sometimes I wonder if I can take a different path.
But looking around, I feel at a loss. The further we go in life, the smaller the space for choice becomes.
Reason tells me that the path I am taking is already the best choice. If I give up, everything will get worse.
Therefore, no matter how hard it is, we can only grit our teeth and keep going.
I don’t know whether I am heading in the right direction, how far I am from my goal, and how many twists and turns there are in the middle.
But since you have chosen this path and you are not dead yet, you can only move forward.
Mencius said: "... Therefore, when Heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to a man, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deprive his body of action, and his actions will not disturb his actions. Therefore, it is beneficial to move one's heart and forbearance. What it cannot do is that people can change it if they are stuck in the heart, balance it with considerations, and then act it out..."
Perhaps, what I am experiencing is this kind of training.
I hope that I can get through this difficult and difficult stage as soon as possible and see the light of day.
When the time comes, I suddenly look back on the road ahead and see the many ups and downs in the past, and like the Great Love Immortal, I can say softly: "It's just a little bit of wind and frost."
Finally, I wish my brothers everything goes well, good health, a prosperous career, a lot of money, and great ambitions!
