Crazy Psychologist
Chapter 29: Headache
"Di Valeo, is this an English name?" Yuan Ming, the editor, asked over the phone.
"It's close to the name of the South American area."
"Where's Jonah?"
"Is there a problem?" Liu Yun asked.
"It's better to use local names, like Lu Mingfei, Wang Daming, and Shi Qiang. For female characters, they should be called Linzi and Tomoko. Names like Liyala are a bit discouraging."
Liu Yun replied casually, "Understood, change the name to Chinese. Is there any more? Is the plot OK?"
If I had known that I would be taught a nonsensical lesson, I might as well not ask this question. The editor said a lot like firecrackers, "After all, it's not like a physical book, but an online article. What readers want is fun. The most important thing is to read it. If you write about the conflict between two alien civilizations, it is better to write about alien civilizations." In the conflict with the earth civilization, the sense of substitution will be stronger, especially in the first few chapters, the sense of substitution is very important, which determines half of the score of this book.
Of course, writing style is absolutely fine, after all, I was once a winner of an essay contest and published many best-selling novels. You just need to keep up with the rhythm of the Internet in terms of thinking and writing habits. "
Liu Yun is not angry, but a little helpless, he has almost gotten used to it, he is also a best-selling author, he has written web articles for several years, and his grades are not bad, the master is just around the corner.
In the future, I will seldom communicate with the editor about the plot and characters. Of course, the editor understands the tastes of the readers, but not all of them. Sometimes, I still have to listen to myself.
After the phone call, I was depressed. He is a fast-thinking author. It only takes four to five hours to update 8,000 to 10,000 words a day. It seems that there are brains in all ten fingers. Ten engines start at the same time, and it is easy to enter the story.
First change the name of the person, and then read through the first ten chapters.
If there is an alien civilization on one side and an earth civilization on the other, then let the alien civilization have a technological power hundreds of times higher than that of the earth, and it can kill human beings within a few minutes.
Revised this way, the story is tense from the start, going into countdown mode.
The advantages are clear at a glance, and emotions are easy to handle, such as nervousness, fear, overwhelm, and fate. Nothing more than these emotions that can attract readers to continue reading.
Make up your mind and get started. Fingers tapped on the keyboard, Civilization T204, 0.7 light-years away from Earth, a rocky planet, Captain Divareo, now changed to Xiao En, Chinese name, and a bit of a Western name.
The spacecraft carries 109 automatic life machines, and the number of human embryos in the cold storage warehouse is 2 million...
Can civilization T204 reproduce in the new planet?
Wait, have you seen this storyline before?
Liu Yun is a science fiction fan. When he was a child, whenever "Science Fiction World" was published, he would immediately rush to the newsstand to buy the magazine, and read every article when he bought it.
At that time, Liu Yun dreamed that one day he would be able to write good-looking science fiction novels.
There are too many novels about the contact between two civilizations. Ted Jiang's "Story of Your Life" is about the alien civilization coming to the earth.
How did I think of this book? It’s really inexplicable. I don’t need to think about all the books about alien civilizations coming to the earth, because I am writing a story that is about to happen on a planet 0.7 light years away.
"A Space Odyssey"? No, Arthur Clarke's book is too classic to be like it, and that would be digging its own grave.
What other books are there? What are you worried about?
Even if there are some similarities in setting, it must be a completely different new story. First of all, the word T204 civilization has never appeared in any novel.
Thinking of this, Liu Yun's head began to ache, and his temples on both sides were swollen and sore.
The hands are also a little out of control.
He resisted and typed a few more lines on the keyboard. The fingers trembled violently.
Could it be the kind of hand tremor that Asimov changed in his later years?
In his later years, Asimov was unable to complete the typing work at all, his hands were completely unable to type accurate words on the typewriter, and finally he had to stop writing as a last resort.
Could it be that he will suffer from hand tremors at a young age?
Liu Yun didn't want to believe it, but his hands were shaking so much, he couldn't help but not believe it.
Tremors? Is there such a problem? Seems to be there, where have I seen it.
can't remember...
I've also been having trouble with my memory lately. It’s all because the last book hit the street. Although there are no books that have sold particularly well since their debut, they are still considered well-known authors. However, the editor of the last book said that the poor sales were expected, and now it’s the era of easy reading , no one wants to read something too esoteric.
Is it esoteric? Liu Yun didn't think so.
He guessed that maybe the writing style needs to be more refined, and the theme is really not profound.
Is it easy to write about the harem, time travel, and take out two million in your pocket at every turn?
Is there a hand tremor disease? With this question lingering in his mind, Liu Yun managed to write another thousand words. Finally defeated.
Enough, let's search to see if there is such a disease. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
Sure enough. Clinically, hand tremor is divided into: rest tremor, exercise tremor, postural tremor, rebound tremor and concussion tremor. Although tremor manifests itself as trembling of the hands, its root cause is mostly in the brain, which is caused by some disease that damages the areas of the brain involved in motor coordination.
What? Brain disease? Isn't this Alzheimer's disease?
Wait a minute, the causes of hand tremors include Parkinson's syndrome, hepatolenticular degeneration, hepatic encephalopathy, cerebellar and brainstem lesions, cerebral arteriosclerosis, cerebral ischemia, drug poisoning, dementia, etc.
The hand tremors of the elderly, from the time, place, age and predisposing factors, are likely to be caused by senile hypertension, arteriosclerosis, and sudden mental stimulation.
Generally speaking, hand tremor symptoms also appear more in old age. A neurologist, endocrinologist, and metabolic doctor should be found in time for appropriate examinations to clarify the cause and correct treatment.
Parkinson's? Cerebral arteriosclerosis?
Cerebral arteriosclerosis should not be possible at Liu Yun's age, so Parkinson's is left? If it is Parkinson's, there is no way to recover.
How can a writer create without being able to type? How does a writer who can't type because of Parkinson's write?
Just thinking about these troublesome things, the editor Yuan Ming sent another message that there will be an author meeting at the book fair next week, and Liu Yun is invited to attend.
This is a good opportunity for writers to promote themselves. The news about Yuanming is lukewarm. Indeed, this is a benefit that the editor can contact, and there is no need to ask the author to participate.
If Liuyun doesn't want to go, there are many authors under Yuanming who are willing to participate, and the publishing house is not just Yuanming's editor.
Liu Yun immediately agreed, even if he couldn't write the manuscript next week, he couldn't miss this kind of event.
