Chapter 206 Writing Genius and Ten Villains

Meteor Book Bar, reading room.

Liu Xing picked up two fairy tale novels and glanced at them.

""Legend of Sword and Fairy", a fairy tale novel, four-star, matching 21.69%!"

""The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", a fairy tale novel, four-star, matching 24.69%!"

Compatibility has improved again.

In the past month or so, Liu Xing has been obsessed with two novels of the Shadowman, one is the competitive novel "The Talented Basketball Player of the Shadowman", and the other is the aviation novel "The Pilot of the Shadowman".

As of today, the number of novels about the shadow man who is fascinated by him is 5, and the number of novels about the shadow man who has not yet been absorbed is 8.

After testing the fairy tale novels, Liu Xing picked up another martial arts novel "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty".

[Book Title] "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"

【Type】Martial arts novel

【Grade】Five-star
[Matching degree] 32.5%
"The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" has reached the ecstasy standard, but the matching rate is only 32.5%, and the time required for ecstasy is more than three years.

Therefore, Liu Xing decided to continue to improve the matching degree of the novel.

It is impossible for the matching degree of novels to increase infinitely. When it reaches a certain level, the improvement of matching degree will stop.

At present, "The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty" is going well, so Liu Xing is going to keep it first.

I looked at the time, it was seven in the morning.

"It's time to go."

After changing his clothes, Liu Xing left Meteor Book Bar and went to Yufeng Fiction Academy.

Seven days ago, the 20th Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest officially started.
The novel contest is completely different from the essay contest. The essay contest selects works, while the novel contest selects writers.

The most important purpose of the novel contest is to select the most powerful writers.

The participating authors do not come to the competition with written manuscripts, but to create on the spot, and all contestants improvise.

If a contestant has no real talent, it will soon be revealed.

The Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest was founded by the book king Xiaoyaoke, who is the founder of the character genre, which focuses on the shaping of novel characters.

Therefore, the theme of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest is very clear - to portray characters!
The writer who can portray the most vivid fictional character is the winner of the contest.

As for what kind of novel characters the writer chooses to portray, it needs to be decided by drawing lots.

The organizers of the competition prepared 10000 kinds of novel character information. On the first day of the competition, all participating writers will randomly draw lots. Whichever kind of character is drawn, they will create a novel related to the character on the spot.

For example, if the role of a policeman is drawn, the contestant must create a novel related to the police; if the role of a doctor is drawn, the contestant must create a novel related to the doctor.

The characters drawn by each participating writer are different, so the novels they create are also different.

However, this is just the first day of the game.

When the competition enters the second day, all contestants will draw lots for the second time, and then draw a second character, and continue to create related novels.

Every day, the lottery will be drawn once.

For each character drawn, entrants are required to create a novel about that character.

At the same time, all the characters drawn by the contestants must be able to form a complete story.

Therefore, during the whole process of the competition, the contestants are writing a long-form character flow novel, adding a character to the novel every day, and the portrayal of each character must strive to be vivid.

This kind of competition not only tests the writer's ability to shape characters, but also poses a huge challenge to the writer's overall layout ability.

As the number of characters increases, the difficulty of creation will increase.

Once the description of any character is out of standard, or the overall work is out of balance, it may face the danger of being eliminated.

The judging committee of the novel competition is to judge the progress of the works every day.

The competition has been launched for seven days, and the number of characters created by each writer has reached seven.

……

Yufeng Fiction Academy, Xiaoyao Building.

In a spacious office, more than 100 judges, divided into 10 groups, are concentrating on reviewing more than 500 entries for the novel competition.

"Bastard, what a pig and a dog!"

At this time, there was an angry curse in the office, and everyone turned their heads to see that an old book appraiser angrily threw a novel manuscript on the table, and his old face was flushed.

"Lao Yang, what's the matter?" President Zhang Qingchen asked.

"The villains in the criminal investigation novel "Ten Evil Men" are simply beasts in clothes and utterly devoid of conscience!" The old book appraiser pointed at the manuscript of the novel on the table and cursed angrily, "I wish I could get into the novel." , Divide the villain in the novel into pieces, into pieces!"

Hearing this, the other judges all smiled and immediately understood the situation.

The old book appraiser obviously had a strong sense of substitution when reading the criminal investigation novel "Ten Evil Men", and he became strongly dissatisfied with the villains in the novel, which led to his emotional loss.

This is not the first time something like this has happened.

The quality of the entries in the novel competition is very high. When reviewing manuscripts, many book appraisers are often deeply attracted by the characters in the works, and even become fascinated and unable to stop.

"The portrayal of villains in "Ten Villains" is really amazing!" The old book appraiser was still very excited, and then analyzed, "So far, there are a total of seven villains portrayed in the novel, and each villain It made me gnash my teeth and get angry!"

"I've just read "Ten Evil Men", and it is indeed a criminal investigation novel that has been rarely seen in ten years." President Zhang Qingchen agreed, "The author's description of the villains can be described as sharp and penetrating. Greed-greedy psychological performance is vivid and almost impeccable. This is the first time I have seen so many lifelike villain characters described in a criminal investigation novel."

Zhao Changchun added: "The most incredible thing is that Fu Changding, the author of "Ten Evil Men" is only 31 years old this year."

"What? Fu Changding is only 31 years old?" Guo De, another veteran book appraiser, looked shocked, "To write a masterpiece like "Ten Evil Men", one must have a very deep understanding of human nature, which requires the author to have Extremely rich experience. How could a 31-year-old writer create such a shocking work?"

Zhang Qingchen speculated: "Maybe this has something to do with his experience? Some people have lived in a difficult environment since they were young, so they will naturally have a deeper understanding of the dark side of human nature."

"However, according to Fu Changding's personal files, he is just an ordinary villager with a poor family and no education. Where did his creative talent come from?"

"Perhaps they are self-taught. Young people nowadays are really awesome! This Fu Changding can write "Ten Evil Men" at the age of 31, and he may be a writing genius once in ten years!"

……

After listening to everyone's discussion, Liu Xing became a little more curious about "Ten Evil Men" written by Fu Changding.

So, he found the manuscript of the novel and looked at it.

"Ten Evil Men" describes the story of a group of vicious villains.

In the novel, each villain’s method of doing evil is very unique and mysterious. The author narrates the suspenseful way and reveals the true face of each villain step by step, which is very similar to solving cases and solving puzzles in criminal investigation novels.

Therefore, it is defined as a criminal investigation novel.
After understanding the outline of the novel, Liu Xing glanced at it with his book eyes.

[Book Title] "Ten Wicked Men"

[Type] Biographical Fiction

【Grade】Five-star
[Matching degree] 31.8%
The moment the information poured in, Liu Xing showed doubts on his face.

"Biographical novel?"

Isn't this "Ten Evil Men" a criminal investigation novel? Why does it show that it is a biographical novel?

Liu Xing was a little dazed, the result of the test was completely beyond his expectation.

"Ten Villains" is a biographical novel. Doesn't this mean that the villains described in the novel really exist in reality?

This is not a fictional novel, but a biographical novel based on real people!
If the ten villains really exist, where are they?
The fact that the author Fu Changding was able to write the biographical novel "Top Ten Evil Men" means that Fu Changding has met the Ten Evil Men!
"Who is this Fu Changding?"

Liu Xing thought about it for a while, and felt that there must be something else hidden in it.

Fu Changding created this "Ten Evil Men" probably not just to participate in the novel contest, but to try to convey some secret information cryptically through the novel.

"Ten Evil Men" is obviously a biographical novel, but Fu Changding uses special writing skills to cover it up, making people mistakenly think it is a criminal investigation novel.

The reason why Fu Changding did this is probably out of safety considerations.

After all, if Fu Changding writes "Ten Evil Men" as a biographical novel, everyone will know that there are really ten evil men in the world. In this way, Fu Changding has offended the Ten Evil Men.

However, Fu Changding is now disguising "Ten Evil Men" as a criminal investigation novel. Most people can't tell that it is a biographical novel, let alone doubt that the ten villains in the novel are real.

In fact, even a seasoned bibliographical expert would not be able to tell that this is a biographical novel.

If Liu Xing didn't have a book eye, he would have mistakenly thought it was a criminal investigation novel.

"Fu Changding conveyed the information of the top ten villains in such a cryptic way. Could it be that he has something to hide?"

Thinking of this, Liu Xing decided to meet with Fu Changding to find out.

……

Seven in the evening.
The cafeteria of Yufeng Fiction Academy, the lobby on the second floor.

Many people in the hall are having dinner, some of them are students, some are professors, and some are writers who have come to participate in the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest.

During the contest, all participating writers lived in Yufeng Fiction Academy.

In the fourth row of seats on the left side of the hall, a man, about 30 years old, wearing a white shirt, with a stern expression, was eating rice silently by himself.

This man is the author of "Ten Evil Men" - Fu Changding.

"Are you Fu Changding?"

At this time, another man came over, it was Liu Xing.At this time, Liu Xing had already used the disguise technique to pretend to be Li Zhigang.

"Hello, my name is Li Zhigang." Liu Xing took the seat opposite and introduced himself.
Fu Changding raised his eyelids, did not speak, and continued to eat.

"I have read your work "Ten Evil Men". Your description of the villains is wonderful, or true!" Liu Xing specially emphasized the word "real".

Hearing this, Fu Changding frowned slightly, looked at Liu Xing, and finally asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Liu Xing asked: "The images of these villains are so realistic, how did you create them?"

Fu Changding continued to bury his head in his meal, and said lightly, "Write whatever you want."

"Impossible?" Liu Xing asked, "Novels come from life, have you met many villains..."

"Sorry, I don't like to talk about my works with others." Fu Changding seems to be very sensitive to the topic of villains, "If you are interested in my works, please read them several times."

After that, continue to bury your head in eating.

Afterwards, Liu Xing asked a few more tentative questions, but Fu Changding ignored them, as he seemed unwilling to communicate with others.

In other words, it is not convenient for him to communicate with people.

"I won't bother you to eat."

After speaking, Liu Xing left.

Fu Changding was not willing to communicate with others at all, he seemed to have something to hide.He suggested that Liu Xing read "Ten Evil Men" several times, which is probably a hint.

The secret in Fu Changding's heart may be hidden in the novel "Ten Evil Men"!

Therefore, Liu Xing decided to read "Ten Evil Men" carefully.

……

Late at night, in the reading room.

Holding "Ten Evil Men" in his hands, Liu Xing was concentrating on reading, and dynamic pictures appeared in his mind.

In the picture, villains appeared one after another, and they were doing crazy things in various extremely vicious and cruel ways.

The screen was changing rapidly, and after a while, a new character suddenly jumped out of the screen, and this character was Fu Changding.

With the flow of words, there are more and more pictures about Fu Changding.

In the novel "Ten Evil Men", there is no description about Fu Changding at all.

However, the creative technique of "Ten Evil Men" is very special, using the "text summoning structure" to form a "character blank spot", and hiding Fu Changding in the "character blank spot".

Fu Changding thus became a hidden character in the novel "Ten Evil Men".
If you read it in an ordinary way, you can't find Fu Changding in the novel at all.

However, if you can read with a strong reading skill and give full play to your imagination, you will be able to make up the hidden character Fu Changding in the novel and learn the information hidden in the novel.

Judging from the hidden information in "Ten Evil Men", Fu Changding has lived in a secret organization since he was a child, has seen all kinds of villains, and received various special trainings.Fu Changding came to Yufeng Novel Academy to participate in the novel competition this time to carry out a secret mission of a secret organization.

Fu Changding wanted to leave this secret organization in his heart, but now he was being secretly monitored by people in the organization, so he didn't dare to act rashly.Fu Changding chose to hide his thoughts in the novel "Ten Evil Men", hoping that someone could discover the hidden information in the novel and find a way to save him.

As for what kind of secret organization Fu Changding belongs to, Liu Xing does not know for the time being.

If you want to know the whole truth, you can only be fascinated by "Ten Evil Men".

Liu Xing has only reached the state of winning at present, and the information he can make up is very limited.

The matching degree of "Ten Evil Men" is only 31.8%, and it takes at least three years to be fascinated.

Liu Xing didn't plan to spend so much time on "Ten Evil Men", but planned to find Fu Changding to ask about the situation face to face.

Fu Changding was under surveillance, so in order to avoid alarming others, Liu Xing could only meet with Fu Changding in a more secure way.

……

Yufeng Fiction Academy, Xiaoyao Hotel.

In room 909 on the ninth floor of the hotel, Fu Changding was sitting alone on the head of the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"I don't know if anyone can understand the hidden information of "Ten Villains"?"

Fu Changding pondered secretly in his heart.

The secret information of "Ten Villains" is hidden with the technique of "text summoning structure", which is so deep that Fu Changding can't help being a little worried that no one will be able to understand it.

If no one discovers the hidden information in the novel, then Fu Changding's painstaking efforts will be in vain, and no one can save him...

Whoosh!
Just as he was thinking, at this moment, a black shadow flew into the room like lightning.

In the blink of an eye, the black shadow had landed in front of Fu Changding.

Fu Changding was instantly stunned.

He didn't see clearly how the black shadow got in, let alone believed that the black shadow could get in.

You know, this is the 9th floor!
"You...are the shadow man?" Fu Changding's eyes showed strangeness.

"Don't worry, I have taken care of all the security guards around the hotel, and there is no surveillance equipment in this bedroom." Liu Xing said, "If you have anything to say, you can tell me directly."

Fu Changding was stunned for a moment, still not sure.

"I have read "Ten Evil Men" written by you." Liu Xing said again, "This is a biographical novel."

Hearing this, Fu Changding's eyes lit up slightly, and his heart moved: finally someone understands my novel!
"Have you read the hidden information in "Ten Evil Men"?" Fu Changding said, "It seems that you are a person with an extremely rich imagination, and you are also an upright person."

Liu Xing was curious: "How to say?"

"The novel "Ten Wicked Men" contains a lot of words describing villains. These words are provoking people's negative desires. If you are attracted by these negative desires and indulge in the novel, then it is not May uncover hidden messages in the novel."

Fu Changding explained, "Only those who can resist temptation and control their own desires can understand this novel. Therefore, you are an upright person and a trustworthy person. It seems that I can put I told you everything..."
