I'm catching tricks in the Hong Kong variety show world

Zi Ning once again fell into a fierce struggle.

"what."

Seeing that the Vajra Talisman did not force the opponent out of Zi Ning's body, Su Hao put his forehead in front of the opponent's eyes. A small golden sun rose in his eyes, staring at it like a devouring beast. .

Immediately after there was a panicked scream, a wisp of ghost fled from Zi Ning's body.

The body of Zi Ning in Su Hao's arms slid softly to the ground.

Su Hao stretched out his hands and held Princess Zi Ning in his arms. Behind him, A Cong rushed over in a panic, "What's wrong with Zi Ning? Are you okay?"

Su Hao lowered his head and glanced at Zi Ning, and saw that Zi Ning was staring at him with tears in her eyes and full of fear. It turned out that she had woken up.

After feeling his gaze, a blush rose on Zi Ning's cheeks and she whispered: "I'm fine, put me down."

Summary of Chapter 68 January, about the logical issues of this book

This book was uploaded on the 31st of last month and passed the new book review. The second update will start on the 1st of this month.

Today is the 31st, exactly one month ago.

I checked the background and it showed that 15.1 words were updated this month.

I originally planned to write a summary after it is published, but I am annoyed by the content of 'big smart' posts that pop up in the comment area from time to time, so I will post one in advance.

A comment pops up in the comment area from time to time. Some people say that the book is illogical and that the author is hot-headed and did not think clearly. The first precept is not like this at all.

I have resisted saying it before, but now I will formally reply here - there is no logical problem in this book.

The author has considered all the issues you have considered.

1. Regarding the logic issues in this book.

When I decided to use the First Ring as the main world, the first thing I considered was whether it would be suitable and whether there would be any problems in integrating it with other copies. I watched this movie a long time ago. For this reason, I deliberately pulled the whole world again. I will write down every dialogue and scene in the film in a TXT file, including the dialogue, clothing, relationship between the characters, names of the characters, etc.

It only takes about 140 minutes to watch it once, and it takes an estimated 3 hours to film one time.

I pooped 2 times.

Some readers say I haven’t seen this movie?What do you want me to say?

After finishing the whole movie, it’s not over yet. I still have to go to Station B to watch the video commentary. Sometimes I have to find several versions. After reading the commentary, I have to search for his plot analysis on Baidu (Douban + Zhihu). If I can search It would be even better to find movie scripts. Many Hong Kong movies actually don’t have scripts at all, so you can only search for plot analysis.

In the plot analysis I searched, various metaphors inside and outside this movie have been analyzed by netizens. Now I will reply to why I said this movie has no logical problems.

The reason why I have a problem with my logic is actually one type of analysis.

They said that all the senior officials of the First Ring were ghosts. The reason was that there were not many scenes in the film, and only one upper body was shown. Liu Sir, who was always eating, suppressed the report put forward by Li Guoqiang, and also He said that if you submit this report, the superiors will not approve it at all, and then send Li Guo to the miscellaneous affairs department to calm down.

The subtext is that if the report is changed, it can be transferred back.

Note that there are two bases for concluding that all the high-level officials are ghosts. First, Liu SIR ate too much and it was abnormal. Second, Li Guoqiang’s ghost encounter report was rejected.

From the beginning to the end of this movie, there is no explicit indication that the top management is a ghost. There is no content in this regard. The plot of the movie is not written in this way at all. It is all made up by various "big smarts" based on this speculation and metaphor.

Is it tenable to accuse me of using a movie's metaphor and a vague plot's speculation to criticize me? This book's logic is flawed.

There are several speculations about how I saw it. Let’s talk about another speculation that I personally agree with.

The three main characters in this play are Li Guoqiang, Huang Yaozu, and Liu SIR.

Li Guoqiang - refers to young people who have a sense of right and wrong in their hearts and have just graduated from school and entered the society. They often have passion and want to do something, but they are beaten to death by various 'hidden rules' in society.

Huang Yaozu - an experienced veteran, since he is unable to change the reality, he will simply lie down and live his life, retire early, and want to escape unscathed.

Liu SIR - a senior leader who is in a high position and has no sense of justice and right and wrong in his heart, only interests. When a problem arises, the first thing he thinks of is not [solve the problem], but [deal with the person who raised the problem], which is commonly known as covering up. cover.

Another metaphor of the director is: In this society, the people at the bottom who are upright and willing to do things (Li Guoqiang) are suppressed in various ways, and the old fritters who live their lives like a fish in water (Huang Yaozu) have lost their righteous and impartial leadership (Liu SIR) Occupy a high position.

The problem the director responded to is: the world is not only black and white, but also a gray area that is neither black nor white, that is, the position and interests under your butt determine your thinking, starting point, and stance.

The above metaphor and speculation are more acceptable to me.

Very close to reality.

Are metaphors difficult to understand and accept?

Since I used the second plot analysis and speculation, let me refute the logic of the first plot speculation. Liu SIR simply ate violently in the workplace. Do you think this is implying that he is abnormal, not a human being, and is possessed by a starving ghost? body.

My guess is that he is a high school student. At home, his family strictly controls his diet for his health. He is so hungry that when he comes to work, no one cares about him and he eats too much.

It’s easy to understand why Liu SIR insisted that Li Guoqiang change the ghost report, because they are a group of ordinary people who know that there are ghosts in the world, but are unable to change it, and in the end they can only choose to cover it up.

What annoys me the most is that from time to time a few people who use the first kind of speculation and metaphor will pop up in the book review area to criticize me and say that there is a problem with the logic of my book. A starving ghost), are the metaphors and speculations you agree with correct?

Are the metaphors and speculations I endorse wrong?

Is there something wrong with the logic?

Everyone is just metaphors and speculations, who is nobler than whom?

With the pen in my hand, I will naturally choose another metaphor that suits me and is accepted by me.

Because if it is written according to the first metaphor [high-level officials are all ghosts], there will be problems in integrating this book with other copies later.

Of course, there are several other metaphors and plot reasoning on Douban and Zhihu, so I won’t go into detail here.

2. Why did you choose "The First Ring" as the main world?

First choose the subject matter. Now that you have decided to write a Hong Kong supernatural drama, there are not many choices left.

There are several supernatural Hong Kong films with older backgrounds, such as "The Haunted Mansion" and "The Ghost Man", etc. These films are too old, and their style is rather funny, and they are not traditional supernatural stories. In other words, I I am worried that it will be difficult to write.

Considering this age issue, I ruled it out.

The second one is modern supernatural Hong Kong films, represented by "The Exorcist", "2002" and "The First Ring".

Although Chef Xie's "2002" has ghosts, it is technically a fantasy film. They use guns to fight ghosts. There is a special bullet in the gun that can restrain the ghosts. So the movie is written like a gun battle. It’s a movie. Like American superhero movies, it has a stronger fantasy and science fiction color, which doesn’t fit my positioning of the book.

I want to write a comprehensive world with traditional supernatural elements.

Next is "Exorcist Police". The protagonist of this movie is Uncle Jiu. If you choose the beginning of this movie as the main world, the next choice will be the direction of Uncle Jiu's comprehensive dungeon. The protagonist must become an apprentice to Uncle Jiu. Everyone knows the combat power in the comprehensive movie world. Uncle Jiu is the first, and the upper limit is infinitely higher. This is an invincible novel.

What I want to write is an upgraded novel. In the supernatural world, the protagonist is the first.

The existence of Uncle Jiu will destroy the structure of this book. If something happens, just ask Uncle Jiu to take action. The protagonist is doing soy sauce on the side. Do you like it?

Finally, there is "The First Ring". In fact, I chose The First Ring not because of its content or background. This movie is too depressing. Ghosts have no solution. People in it are just "toys" and "bodies" of ghosts. ], its overall tone is not happy.

Even if I am writing a supernatural novel, what I want to write is a light-hearted supernatural novel with supernatural elements.

I chose this dungeon because of its identity, which is the identity of the Miscellaneous Section. With this identity, catching ghosts later will be justifiable.

What I want is actually a kind of rationality and driving force to catch ghosts.

Someone asked, Taoist priests can also catch ghosts, why not choose Taoist priests?

What's the benefit of catching ghosts as a Taoist priest?for money?So what happens after you catch ghosts a few times and make money?What’s the driving force behind catching ghosts?

For justice?Do you believe that readers will think you are a bad writer?

And since it is a modern background, and the main theme is science, civilization and the legal system, you, a gray profession with strong feudal superstitions, might be suppressed by the relevant departments if you stand out.

The rationality and driving force of catching ghosts as a Taoist priest are insufficient.

Being a police officer is different. You want to be promoted, you get a salary, and you have the rationality and sense of mission to catch ghosts and maintain law and order.

Therefore, I chose "The First Ring" in order to arrange a reasonable way for the protagonist to catch ghosts. What I want is his identity in the miscellaneous department. You can understand it as "backdoor listing". What I am here is a Hong Kong comprehensive copy, not A single world.

3. Write about the problems faced by Hong Kong.

Why do you want to write a Hong Kong variety show this time?

Anyone who has read my old books knows that I have been thinking about how to solve the astronomy and change the dungeon to pursue the shortcomings of being cut in half. For this reason, I chose to expand the length of the main world in the last book, and the dungeon chose to end within 30 chapters. With small dungeons, even if you choose a wrong dungeon and few people will read it, because of the main world, readers will come back to you after you finish writing a certain dungeon.

Expanding the length of the main world will increase the reader stickiness of this book and reduce the disadvantage of changing copies to stop reading.

It turns out it works, but it's not enough.

So this time I decided to write a comprehensive copy.

Comprehensive dungeons are definitely more difficult than a single astronomy, involving many issues of character relationships and story cohesion and integration. The world view and world background have been expanded by N times.

I was very worried when I first wrote this book. The biggest problem was that I am not from the Cantonese-speaking area, so I couldn't describe the flavor of Hong Kong. I have never been to Hong Kong, so I don't understand many things there.

The police system can check information, the Hong Kong Administrative Region can check information, and there are more details about life that you cannot check. If you only rely on your own understanding of film and television content to write, you will inevitably encounter various unreasonable bugs.

One of my colleagues said something to me. He said that it is not necessary to write Hong Kong style in order to write Hong Kong comprehensive. The Cantonese readers who read Hong Kong comprehensive only account for a very small part. What you have to deal with is non-Cantonese. readers in the area.

It's best if you can write about Hong Kong flavor. This is a bonus. If you can't, it doesn't matter.

So, I decided to give it a try.

Let me try and write a comprehensive dungeon to see if it can solve the problem of Zhutianwen changing the dungeon and losing the follow-up reading.

80% of the book takes place in the main world, and the remaining 20% ​​will have some different time and space dungeons, such as traveling back to ancient times, or making some neon dungeons, etc. There are not many.

Generally, I will directly integrate movie background stories that take place in the timeline between 1990 and 2020 into the main world. For those that are further away, before 1990, I will carefully consider it and at least erase the elements related to the era on both sides. , otherwise there will be obvious bugs. For older movies and TV shows, they cannot be cobbled together and can only be solved in the form of separate copies.

Comprehensive dungeons still consider the main structure and style of the work, so that there will be no bugs when integrating other dungeons, and there will be no problems such as power level gaps.

4. The style positioning of this book

It is a style that mainly focuses on supernatural elements, plus some criminal investigation movies, with supernatural accounting for about 80%.

Someone asked, there are some movies and TV shows that are relatively famous, why don’t you choose them?

The answer is the problem of integration. If it is not easy to integrate, I will naturally not choose it. I have to consider the overall structure, not just a single movie.

I tried my best to include all the supernatural films.

Since it is a supernatural style, the heroine of this book is dispensable and can be written about a monk. This is an option.

I can't write pile driver, it's boring. If it was a Hong Kong entertainment, it would definitely be harem.

Whichever option you choose, it depends on whether the plot requires it.

As for this book, there is only a female supporting character and no heroine. Whether it is overridden or not depends on the needs of development. It will work when it comes. It will not be blind and sleep with everyone. This is very vulgar and not satisfying.

I will spend more time and energy carving out daily emotional lines.

I won't always insist on playing a single female protagonist. This is not a city. The world of movies and TV shows has already been written about it. Why don't we allow people to have fun?In the city, no one would say that there is something wrong with the logic of a rich man's three wives and four concubines. In the novel, the protagonist's three wives and four concubines were criticized as unreasonable and speechless.

All I can say is that the supporting female characters in this book are all helpful to the protagonist, not vases. I don’t write about vases.

Supernatural novels, after the intense and exciting plot, need a little bit of character interaction and emotional daily life to spice things up.

This is what supporting actresses are for.

5. Regarding the content of the first 15 words of this book and subsequent arrangements

A total of several contents were written in the first 15 words.

——Ping An Apartment, derived from the plot of the niche film "Good Neighbors".

The supporting character Wu Fei is a character I took out separately from "Carmen in Mong Kok" and put him and Ping An Apartment together as a small subplot.

The supporting characters I have written in my book will not only appear once. There will be one or several branches of the haunted house connected behind the crowfly.

When the protagonist needs experience points, the flies will appear, okay?

——The Ghost Mother of Kowloon Walled City, from the first plot in "Hong Kong Strange Records".

This stand-alone game has a commentary at Station B. It is divided into 4 plots. I may only use 2 of them. I have to consider the issue of connection and integration.Use materials that are suitable and discard materials that are inappropriate.

The two paragraphs I took out separately are the first and second chapters of "The Cult", one is the resurrection of the body, and the other is the resurrection of the soul.

The resurrection of the body corresponds to the ghost mother, and the resurrection of the soul corresponds to... No spoilers.

——The first commandment, this solves the problem of the protagonist’s identity and the rationality and driving force of catching ghosts.

The above three plots, Ping An Apartment is an abbreviation, and the First Ring and Ghost Mother are a detailed one. Among them, the Ghost Mother part is a little tighter. Some readers said that the recent chapters are too bland. What I am considering is that before 3 words, there will be more. A compact and detailed plot appears.

The next movie that will appear, I am currently writing is "The Exorcist of the World", plus a compact plot (no spoilers about the specifics), which can be written in almost 30 words, with several small subplots interspersed in it, such as "Barefoot" Movies such as "Psycho", "The Evil Dead", "Haunted House", "Blind Detective" and "Dr. Lamb".

In fact, I also want to write about meat dumplings, but I am worried that the scale is too big, so I am still hesitant for now.

The main plot of this book is actually to catch ghosts and upgrade. After being promoted, you can use your rights to better catch ghosts or improve your life.

When the protagonist is promoted, he no longer has to worry about his own safety. At this time, the appearance of the supporting actress can be seen as an adjustment and reward that improves survival.

When you are precarious, frightened, and on tenterhooks, would you consider picking up girls?

Promotion and upgrade (soul orb) is a bright line.

Safe Apartment (upgrade to gain experience) + First Ring (solve the protagonist's troubles) + Ghost Mother (promotion), it seems very clear.
