Proof of the Sun King

Three and a half years have passed, and the book "Warhammer Throne" or "Proof of the Sun King" has finally come to an end. It is not easy to finish a six-million-word novel. It can be said that the creation of On the way to this book, I had a lot of problems, made many mistakes, and the plot also had a lot of runaway places. It was really good luck to finish the book smoothly in the end.

Then, next, I will answer the questions and opinions of the readers about this book in the form of questions and answers. If you do not see the questions you want to know, you can use this chapter to leave a message at this position. Question, I will answer the 2.0 series later.

Q: Why did you write a so-called hammer essay? What is the motivation?

A: The motivation is actually very simple. I believe that readers can read many fragments of deja vu and strong sense of sight from my article. Personally, I like Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings novels very much, and I have read a lot of them. I have always been interested in writing something about Western fantasy. At the starting point, two novels had a great influence on me. The first book was "Shadow God Throne" by Yu Yunfei (that's right). , The name of the Warhammer Throne is taken from this book) The second book is "Master of the Abyss" by Zhusheng Buddha (this book is of extremely high quality, wonderful plot, and fascinating content), which is quite impressive to me. It was a continuation of the past, and then DND, the Witcher 3 game.

Xihuan decided, what was the opportunity to choose the theme of Warhammer? About the summer vacation of 2017, my last Japanese entertainment novel "The Poem of Nogizaka" was blocked due to force majeure. After that, there was no hope of unblocking with continuous appeals. The whole person was disheartened and had a lot of free time at the same time. At this time, I played "Total War: Warhammer". I have always been a loyal player of the Total War series. After playing for a while, I was attracted by this theme.

At this time, I was a layman, and I was very interested in the subject of hammer, so I specially looked for information everywhere, posted it, blog, station B, and even went to the external network to read Warhammer Wiki 1d4. Not only did I read some first-hand information, I also saw a lot of second-hand goods, third-hand garbage, fourth-hand shit, and a lot of **** mountain that was passed down to China by word of mouth and played back and forth about 114,514 times by a lot of people. These things have an impact on my later creations, I can only say that At that time, it was very difficult to obtain information, and you could only see what you believed.

In the process, I watched 40K things again, and a bold idea came up at that time.

Hence this book.

Q: Since the hammer theme was chosen, why did you write about the harem? Don't you feel conflicted?

A: Here I would like to emphasize that it is not that I chose to write the harem in the theme of Warhammer, but I chose the theme of Warhammer to write the Western Fantasy Harem! This is very important! Very important! Very important! Say it three times!

I have always been a staunch lover of harem literature. I firmly follow in the footsteps of Jicha bosses. The reason for choosing the theme of Western Fantasy Harem is that although this theme is small, it is not "sensitive". Please remember that I chose Western Fantasy. The harem comes first, choose the hammer theme later!

My main purpose is not to write hammer essays, but to write Western Fantasy Harem!

I want to find a subject that can write about the harem of stockings, hehe, a satisfying book!

Question: Many people complained that your book was not "hammered" enough, it was just a rubbish, third-rate white text in a hammered skin.

A: Isn't it? ? ? ! ! ! (laugh)

Originally, it was just a third-rate **** essay in the western fantasy harem that I wrote myself in a hammer skin. I never put gold on my face, but I do have something to say about the so-called "hammer taste".

When I first started writing this book, what I wanted was a "hodgepodge". Later, I found that I couldn't control it, and then I started to make up a lot of Warhammer content, mainly writing hammer plots.

But the more I write, the more I find that the so-called "hammer taste" is mainly hope in despair, and the light of humanity in "Darkness♂Deep♂Fantasy", which is very good, but unfortunately, this stuff is what I wrote about it. The kernel "cool" conflict of Xiaobai Netwen.

At this time, a choice must be made, whether to ignore the market and stick to the niche circle, or to give up the core fans who watch "Hammer" and become popular?

I want to stick to it.

To tell the truth, with many people "coming from the hammer", many more radical hammer fans really let me see their fanatical love for hammers.

When I wrote about two or three hundred chapters, a few senior hammer friends came. At the beginning, they communicated very well, and they also understood many of my questions. I was still very happy at the time. Another big guy came, someone Help me read the text correction, good!

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. With the development of the plot, the boss gradually became more and more dissatisfied with my so-called "deduction" and "magic reform", and finally ended in a fierce quarrel. After confirming that reconciliation is impossible, I can only "invite" the big brother out, which is very uncomfortable.

Is the boss wrong? In fact, that's right, he just wants a novel full of "hammer flavor" that suits what he wants.

Am I wrong? In fact, I think I am right, I am a third-rate little white text whose purpose is to write a western fantasy harem and make money.

The two are inherently in serious conflict, or my pen is not strong enough to control these two conflicting elements.

Since then, under two irreconcilable contradictions, I finally made up my mind and decided to popularize the writing method.

I also apologize to some core fans and fans who only come for the content of Warhammer. I believe that there are so many authors writing Warhammer on the whole network, and you will definitely find the articles you like.

I also apologize to some people who criticized me for spoiling this subject, but since I am already a "rare dog certified by the imperial army", just let me go. The imperial army has already certified me with my real name. , become like this, everyone does not want it!

Q: Have you ever thought of writing 6 million words? Why is it so long to write?

A: Actually, I didn’t expect it. As we all know, there was no outline for this book. The outline I designed before was only one or two million words. A new outline was introduced, but it was only until the protagonist captured Musillon and became king.

As for the Raiders of Eight Peaks, it was planned very early. In order to improve the plot and maintain the serialization, I stayed in the water for a long time after Ryan became the Duke of Musillon.

When I finished writing the Bafengshan strategy, I found it embarrassing, and there was no outline for these.

I have to say that it is indeed a kind of torture to have high-intensity updates every day for the serialization of online articles. Afterwards, the mentality of dealing with the crossover gradually rises. The things in my stomach are also hollowed out, and there is no outline. It is very uncomfortable to write, especially special. It's uncomfortable, after the Bafeng Mountain Raiders, I admit that I have been in the water for a long time, this is my problem.

Looking back now, in fact, many, many plots are meaningless and too watery, so they can be omitted or even abbreviated.

It's just that I couldn't do it at the time. It was too tiring to think about the plot, check the data, and the influence of various real things while serializing.

At the end, I couldn't write anymore, but the story was still not finished. I was so tired that I relied on playing tricks and entraining private goods to maintain my enthusiasm for writing. Later, I was criticized by many book friends. Admit it, I am indeed wrong, I should have set the outline early.

Writing this kind of thing, it is impossible not to add private goods. After having a platform, everyone has the desire to express, it is just whether they can restrain it. Some writers did not restrain themselves when they finished, and there was a big problem. One of them I especially like it. He is the great author of his crazy fanboy brother. I won't say who it is. It really sounded the alarm for me.

Q: I'm here for the 40K and Primarch plots, why are there fewer plots and Primarch plots in the later 40k?

A: 40k is a gimmick and the backstage of the protagonist, not the text. Writing too much is very distracting and affects the rhythm of the narrative. I didn’t plan to write too much.

And for the same reason as above, 40k is a huge suture that is very complex, has a lot of content, and needs to be studied and studied very carefully. After I wrote some, I really felt that some senior hammer fans have a special fanatical love for Warhammer, and they are very loyal It's good to have faith, to pick on the pricks, these are all good. In the early days, when I knew a little about the layman, I cut three sentences in the group and sent them to other groups to laugh at the paratroopers. The author does not understand and pretends to be a joke. It is good, there are more dirty things. It's gone, it's been a long time, and I've also started to hate writing too much 40k and primordial content.

And the character of the original body is too complex and profound. I myself mainly rely on the small slices of many official novels, many up main popular science videos at station B and some post bar bosses, and the analysis of a few hammers I know to interpret the characters. It is well known that , a thousand people have a thousand Hamlets in their hearts. I can only restore them according to my understanding and my writing power. I am not the official author of the black library. I have a halo, so I am basically thankless.

The funniest thing is that there were readers who came to meet me in the group. As we all know, my things are not second-hand goods that I made up by myself after reading the original materials, or third-hand garbage I made up after listening to storytelling, interpretation and translation.

And this reader is even more critical. In his mind, he has a pile of "shit mountains" left after the ferment of jokes and jokes. Using these things to argue with me, I found that the two of us are not the same at all. something.

At this time, I realized that some opinions are not so important.

After that, I read an article about the yin and yang weirdness of the translation topic on a certain platform, which meant that there was an official novel that was poorly written. He emphasized that "I know this author has won awards" and "I know this author is very capable." It is the source of many sci-fi settings" "I know that the author has a good plot concept and is the official trump card" "But I still think that what he wrote is not the hammer I want".

I also read it, write 40k less, and write it as I think, so in the end some of the original bodies were not taken back, sorry.

Q: Was the ending a little rushed?

A: There is no doubt that the finale is a bit rushed and incomplete, mainly for three reasons.

One, I really can’t go on writing. As we all know, the climax of this book has ended. The weakness of farming in the late stage is an old problem. Personally, I am very tired of writing.

Second, on the 19th, that is, tomorrow, I will go to the closed training for a period of time, which will be closed from 9 to 5 all day, and will not have time to write, so I must end it quickly.

Third, the things that should be explained and the things that should be written are almost the same. In the end, it is an old routine, justice will definitely triumph over evil, and there is no need to write in detail.

Q: Do you have plans for the next book? What subject? What time?

A: There are plans for the next book, but it’s not so fast. This time I was certified as a rare dog by the Imperial Army, which sounded the alarm for me. My plan for the next book is to stitch some original settings, and I will also learn from this book. The outline is a question, so it takes enough time to prepare, and it is expected by the end of the year.

The theme is expected to be Western fantasy, but some other elements will be stitched together, such as the gram, such as the stars, such as the heroic invincible, such as DND, may also be a bit hammer, but I do not admit it! ! !

This is the lord's farming text, the main body of the next one will be adventure, the farming content will be reduced a lot, and only a small part will be retained.

Is it to continue the harem stockings? I can say 100% yes, but I will definitely learn the lessons of this book. The number of female protagonists should be reduced, and the characters should be as distinct as possible to ensure personal characteristics and personal plot lines, especially don’t go to the later stage like this book. After the plot, this is inferior. At present, I have already thought about four characters, and in principle, try not to exceed six or seven.

The new book also wants to challenge female protagonists of the type like King Ada and Kurumi.

And I want to stress again, the Ryan in this book is actually a tool person who has no personality characteristics and is completely a tool to satisfy the desires of readers. The protagonist of the next book is different. The protagonist of the next book is a guy with a great personality. I don’t know if everyone will Like (laughs).

Q: Regarding Teresa's father, what happened to Aurora's husband? Why isn't it explained later?

Answer: In fact, this is the foreshadowing of a super-large plot dungeon in the later period. Originally, I wanted to design a super-large plot dungeon in which the ancient ancient holy relics were excavated and all the forces participated. Later, because there was not enough space, I gave up, and naturally there is no Below, and Aurora was not originally planned... (brackets laugh).

Q: Will there be a future talk with you to understand?

Answer: Bread will be there~www.wuxiaspot.com~Milk will be there, everything will be fine! Did you see that Brother Tianzi lied to you? Brother Tianzi, my credit is as high as that of Brother Quin!
