Chapter 178 gives you a boost of strength, Xiao Li Yan
In my impression, ever since Kaiyuan decided to recommend Li Yan’s editor’s selection, Kaiyuan has always been the best choice for the online article "The Sword of the White-haired Emperor" Fierce tits Li Yan is the bad guy.
Hearing "not optimistic" from Kaiyuan, who helped Li Yan understand "This book is really amazing!" every day, really made Li Yan a little uncomfortable.
No, it’s Li Yan, who has been making great progress since the theatrical performance, who is not used to the “downward trend”.
Li Yan: What’s the problem with the data?
Kaiyuan: As far as the current content is concerned, I personally feel that there is nothing wrong with it. The level and quality have been maintained. Readers’ comments are also positive and there is enthusiasm. but! This subscription volume cannot increase.
Li Yan looked at the average order of 4,500 and expressed that he didn’t understand: Isn’t it just the third day of the Lunar New Year? The total has only been updated for eleven days.
Kaiyuan: That’s the problem! You have been updating 15,000 words a day for ten days, and you also updated 30,000 words on the day it was released. It has been updated to 180,000 words in eleven days. I was worried about your health, but as a result, the average subscription increased by two hundred, and the collection did not increase much.
Li Yan’s brows furrowed unconsciously: Didn’t you say that this book will become more powerful in the later period, so you don’t need to pay too much attention to it now?
Kaiyuan replied quickly, his typing speed reflecting his anxiety: Don’t pay too much attention to the first order, because with your efforts in the later period and the explosive updates, the data will definitely get better and better, but now... change to something else The author was so excited that I decided to go there in the morning. I also have a headache. After thinking about it, there may be several reasons.
Li Yan: Due to its slow popularity and grand world view, this book needs to be read with a calm mind. In theory, it should not have any potential to become a hit. The fact that it took him so long to sign the contract also illustrates this point - at least that's what the editors think.
Kaiyuan's "Inputting" status was intermittent for a while and then stopped.
Li Yan: One is your support from Yuanda, which gave me a place in the editor’s selection, gave the novel its first wave of traffic and the impression that “this book should be pretty awesome”. It is often the prerogative of a well-known author to write about his or her own worldview, and it is often the prerogative of a famous author. Everyone first assumes that the book is good, and only then can they have the patience to read the author's slowly unfolding story.
Kaiyuan: Yes, that’s why I decided to take a gamble. Without this recommendation, it would be difficult for everyone to be curious.
Li Yan: The second one is the Golden Alliance of Mr. Kidney Deficiency. While attracting traffic, due to the "violent operation" incident, it greatly increased the popularity and topic of this book. Many people paid attention to it. If there are many, there will always be something to look into.
Kaiyuan: The third point is your explosive updates. Such stories with high information density, grand stories, and complex settings often have a flaw in the update speed, but you have maintained high-quality explosive updates and retained readers.
Li Yan’s typing speed slowed down: With the support of these three points, she achieved her current results. In other words, as long as the topic becomes less popular, it will still be difficult for everyone to maintain their enthusiasm for this book, right?
Kaiyuan: Judging from the data, it should be yes. Recently, the number of newcomers reading books is almost the same as the number of readers. There is such a high proportion of people reading books, which shows that reading your book is... a bit tiring.
Li Yan’s hands that were racing on the keyboard suddenly trembled: Tired?
Kaiyuan: Internet articles are not literary masterpieces. Besides, if you look among the crowd, how many of them read literary masterpieces? Especially after working. When I was a student, I was also a literary boy. Now I am working as an editor. I read novels every day, but I still can't stand literary classics.
Li Yan was thoughtful.
Kaiyuan: Because I’m too tired! Reading novels is just to relax, and you will have a desire for in-depth and exciting stories, but one or two masterpieces are enough. When I usually look for new books, I still want to have fun with pretentious pictures, or create a little emotional resonance, so that I feel less empty and lonely.
Li Yan bit her lip.
Kaiyuan: Sorry, I seem to have dumped my anxiety on you. As an editor, you shouldn’t be like this. Just write at your own pace. Your grades are still very good and you have obtained the masterpiece badge. What are you afraid of? The story of the later stage will gradually explode!
Li Yan: Of course.
After the conversation ended, Li Yan felt a little disappointed.
Beyond ordinary people's mental level, he repeatedly adjusted his emotions, but in the end he was a little depressed.
Damn it, Kaiyuan has calmed down and doesn’t dare to think about the future.
Li Yan has become accustomed to rapid growth in performance, so the sudden stagnation of the novel was a real blow.
The intensity of the emotion was not as intense as the original sentence "What the hell was written", but this time the inner force was so deep that it directly shocked Li Yan's heart.
One wave of ups and downs came after another, and while he was still thinking about whether he was being too hypocritical because he was feeling depressed because he "didn't meet his expectations", Li Yan saw a familiar yet unfamiliar profile picture flicker.
20220922163341297: It’s Chen Fan.
Li Yan immediately gave a note and did not want to ask what the long series of numbers meant.
Chen Fan: In order to disappear quietly in a group, I can only pretend that I have become a garbled character.
Li Yan: Okay, this is not important. You came to me so early in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year. It shocked me for the whole year.
Chen Fan: The mobile phone system is not easy to deal with.
Li Yan: Of course it’s not easy. Chen Fan: What I mean is...it can't be done.
Eh yo yo? Li Yan frowned, what does this mean? During the Chinese New Year, one after another came to give me strength, right?
Chen Fan: I studied for a while years ago and found that there are many things that I couldn’t start with. If you asked me to build a simple computer system, I would at least have a direction. I think it can still be completed. I really can’t build a mobile phone system. clear.
Li Yan: I have also thought about it. There are not many smart phones now, and there is no place to test them.
Chen Fan: Have you thought about testing? I didn’t dare to think about it. I asked my dad about it during the Chinese New Year, and he took me to find his friends and discussed it for a while. They all thought...it was impossible.
Li Yan: Why?
Chen Fan: I almost dismantled Pineapple 3. I also compared Nokstone’s current system and asked my dad’s friend to study the open source Robert system and the open source X kernel. I can only say , we can try to make a system for our own entertainment.
Li Yan: Does it mean it seems to be working?
Chen Fan: BINGO, precise. I don’t dare think about making a kernel myself, I’ll just use open source. But the system we want to build needs to be optimized for mobile phones. I can’t even imagine the specific content of this project. Take Pineapple 3 as an example. Our system requires writing a large number of device drivers, a series of system services and middleware components, and an application framework that provides API interfaces to various software developers. I don’t know how to use graphical UIs. It's a difficult point...
When discussing professional issues, Chen Fan really seemed like a different person.
Chen Fan: I have no idea how to directly interact with the hardware of Pineapple 3. I don’t understand mobile phone hardware at all... As for the difficulty of memory management, process scheduling, and file systems required for system design, , I think my current programming level is unsatisfactory.
Li Yan was a little ashamed, he was even less understanding than Chen Fan... But Chen Fan's initial confidence even came from him.
Chen Fan: Even if I understand it all, I can’t imagine the amount of code. And if you really want to be able to use it, you have to conduct extensive testing to ensure system stability, find bugs, and fix bugs. ...To be honest, I only became aware of these contents after my dad told his friends.
Li Yan: Who are your father and your father’s friends?
Chen Fan: It’s okay. My dad is the director of the New Taipei Institute of Optoelectronics and has some friends who are engaged in electronic products.
I guess, it’s so weighty, it’s really unavoidable.
Face the reality, Xiao Liyan!
Maybe because Li Yan was slow to reply, Chen Fan also realized that these words were a bit shocking, and added: Of course it’s not impossible... My dad’s friend said that he knows a technology company owner named What Chuanzu means is moving the computer system to the mobile phone. He said that the main difficulty is actually making a commercial product. If we just treat it as a concept project and only complete some simple interactions without considering "completeness", it is not impossible.
Li Yan: We have no choice but to do this, because there are no applications for us to test now.
Chen Fan: BINGO! This is also a big problem. Look at Pineapple 3... No matter how easy the computer system is to use, it won't work without usable software.
Li Yan: So we have to develop simultaneously.
Chen Fan was stunned in front of the computer, and the flame that was extinguished by his father was ignited by Li Yan again.
Li Yan: You have connections, and so do I. We have a lot of resources to use. I firmly believe that Nokia Stone is not the future. Now is a good time for melee. Even if it is an immature concept, there will be people who are willing to do it. Give us trial and error.
Chen Fan's eyes lit up.
Li Yan: Once we miss this opportunity and some dominating systems begin to appear, and other people’s software is developed based on other people’s systems, we can really only play around.
Chen Fan: No, aren't you just playing?
Li Yan: I want to master core technology. But when I looked at the issues you were considering at the beginning, you didn’t think it was just for fun.
Chen Fan was shocked and hit the highest hand speed. The sound of the keyboard woke up his dog: No! I just habitually want to study in depth, and I never thought about actually developing a commercial-grade product! Li Yan, don’t you already know some amazing skills?
Li Yan: No, I really don’t know how.
Chen Fan felt a little complicated all of a sudden. He was relieved, but also a little disappointed, with mixed emotions.
Li Yan: But you can learn.
Grass, it’s you!
Chen Fan didn't realize that there was an excited smile on his lips.
"The vacation is over, Li Yan!" Li Yan took a deep breath and opened various materials given by Chen Fan, "Time waits for no one, it's time for you to play your role, System Lord!"
