Writing Web Novels In America-Chapter 95 Resumed Update

The next day, Wang Jian returned to his long-missed office.

Sitting behind his desk, he recalled what Catherine had said over the phone yesterday.

The woman’s idea was to emphatically highlight the four main characters, ensuring they looked handsome and beautiful.

The crux of the drama to be filmed first and foremost was the process of the female lead being variously pampered by the other three main characters.

A considerable portion of the budget would be spent on this aspect.

The next focal point would be the three main characters, displaying all sorts of melodramatic conflicts revolving around the female lead.

As for the parts about the female lead being wrongfully imprisoned, the dark life within the prison—those slightly more profound scenes that explore social issues...

Uh...

According to Catherine, housewives even skip over the news about society, so it’s best to heavily cut those parts out.

So, the acting skills of the supporting roles and the prison’s realism and such can all go f*ck themselves.

If the original script was an idol drama set in a real prison,

then after Catherine’s revisions, the level of imagination in the script.

was practically the female lead transmigrating to an Otherworld prison, staying in a presidential suite, sipping ’82 Lafite, while conveniently boosting her charm.

Wang Jian stood up and brewed himself a strong cup of tea.

Forget it, forget it.

He didn’t understand the world of women.

Wasn’t the reason for choosing Catherine because she was a woman and particularly good at spouting nonsense?

Anyway, since most American series are produced very quickly and are filmed while being broadcast,

he would likely see the results of the first few episodes soon.

At that time, he would decide whether to change directors or something based on the initial viewership ratings.

After all, it’s not uncommon for other American series to swap 7 or 8 directors in just one season!

As for him now, he might as well go back to his familiar territory and keep bamboozling the American male youth.

He turned on the computer and clicked on the Fantasy category.

Even though, for now, "Extreme Heavenly Demon" and "American Gods" still had the highest click-through and subscription rates by far,

the pleasant news was that this section now had plenty of new works.

Wang Jian looked at the website’s backend data with pleasure, as the number of works and the number of paying subscribers were steadily increasing.

Good, no matter the nationality, everyone loves a thrilling read.

Moreover, this style of writing has the advantage of a low writing threshold and a relatively easier income compared to traditional literature.

Perhaps, in the near future, on the numerical side, one traditional literature author might have to go up against at least ten web novel authors.

Then, in the face of overwhelming numbers, the ethos of American literary circles might just change.

Entering an era where every story starts with transmigration and ends with systems, where the protagonist is always an orphan, and the girl must be mine, isn’t beyond imagination.

The physical publication of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone" has now begun its 24-hour countdown.

And, to catch the draft of EA’s popularity, "Arcane Throne" has to hold off on physical publication for now.

Therefore, to present the "system" to American print readers as soon as possible,

he has to chug coffee and type faster to finish the book soon.

Thinking about all this, Wang Jian opened the revised directory of "Extreme Heavenly Demon" and looked at the comments section of the book.

The readers’ attitudes were beginning to change gradually, with the duration of the hiatus.

These comments had evolved from praise like "Well written, awesome, so thrilling!" to "F*ck, are you dead, author? Update already!"

And now they had entered the third phase of beseeching...

The latest comment was: Author, if you dare update today, I dare to streak in Time Square.

The many comments below typically followed suit.

I dare to streak in Texas;

I dare to streak in Minnesota;

I dare to streak in California...

Well, the level of abuse was far lower than I had imagined.

Wang Jian nodded in satisfaction and closed the comments section.

Minutes later, with the tapping of his fingers on the keyboard.

The mutated "Extreme Heavenly Demon" resumed updates.

...

Living in New York, Kael was originally a traditional fantasy literature enthusiast.

Whenever a new fantasy novel was published, he would always rush to the bookstore to buy a copy and take it back to his apartment for a thorough read.

This was also, aside from rent, the biggest daily expense for him as a single male.

The first half of this year was supposed to be the happiest time for him as a fantasy lover.

George Martin’s "A Song of Ice and Fire," Volume One, Robert Jordan’s "The Wheel of Time," Volume Three, and Wang Jian’s "Arcane Throne," Volume One, were published one after another.

This simply sent him into ecstasy.

Especially "Arcane Throne," the novel ideas and uniquely distinctive power system had utterly captivated Kael.

But just as he was repeatedly reading through these classic fantasy novels, waiting for the next part of the story to be released next year or the year after.

Suddenly, news reached his ears.

"Arcane Throne" had started to serialize its subsequent content on a website!

He logged onto this website with mixed feelings, and indeed, he found what he had been wanting to read.

Kael devoured "Arcane Throne" with a thirst for more, involuntarily marveling at the brilliance of the story.

But then he discovered that this reading mode not only allowed him to preview some of the story to decide whether to pay.

Moreover, in terms of consumption alone, it was also much cheaper than physical books.

So, he began to develop the habit of hanging out on this website whenever he had free time.

The various creative ideas and fascinating stories made Kael linger and forget to leave.

But they also began to empty his wallet gradually.

This caused Kael, a university student, great distress, and he resolved not to log onto that bittersweet website again.

But when he returned to the bookstore, he discovered everything had already changed.

This book lacked engagement,

That one’s plot was too bland...

Even "A Song of Ice and Fire," which he had once loved so much, now seemed to torture its protagonist too harshly.

At this time, Wang Jian’s new book "Extreme Heavenly Demon" started to serialize on the website.

Kael hesitated repeatedly but still logged onto that website once more.

Indeed, Wang Jian did not disappoint.

He introduced a story genre called "Fantasy" and told it in a way that was thrilling and heart-stopping.

But this time, Wang Jian’s update speed was like George Martin’s.

What was more infuriating was that he left the story at the most exciting point.

"How mighty is Odin, the chief god of Northern Europe, especially since he has used his ultimate move ’The Twilight of the Gods’?"

"But such a level of power has amounted only to a pat on the protagonist’s shoulder."

Puzzled, the protagonist turned to look at Odin and asked, "Why did you pat me?"

Kael kept replaying this scene in his mind, which made him utterly distracted from everything else.

So, today, when he saw there was no update again, he left a comment in the reader’s comment section: If the author dares to update today, I will dare to streak in Time Square.

And to his surprise, there turned out to be an unexpected number of other victims from across the United States.

Kael watched as they left comments one after another, boosting the post to over a thousand replies.

And at that moment, the "ding dong" notification sound rang out.

Did "Extreme Heavenly Demon" get updated?
