Chapter 7: The Sorrow of Dreamers

Alright, Wen Da, however, I have also read your book, and I have read it quite thoroughly. If you truly enjoy this field and are planning to take it seriously, shall we have a good chat?

The greater the fame, the easier it is to adapt and similar endeavors, which translates to money

Although being scolded is an unpleasant experience, if this matter is handled well, it can also bring significant benefits

This is not an ordinary matter; it is the Ugly God making a statement in his review section, which has drawn a majority of the readers to join in the excitement, and now the review section has been decimated

The first floor is clearly the domain of the Ugly God’s readers, while the second floor has taken a strange turn, as Wang Dashan, the Golden Alliance Leader with over 20 million Qihang coins, has launched an attack on the Ugly God

In the hundreds of replies, there are those filled with laughter, scolding, mockery, and disdain, all aimed at the foolish brush users. However, the wealthy and foolish Wang Dasha has stirred up even more excitement, causing many bystanders to watch the spectacle and mock the ugly deity.

Qihang Chinese Network is the largest leading website in the country, gathering over 70% of readers and authors here

He was once again taken aback, wondering why the sound was coming from the direction of the fantasy editing team. This is urban literature

Once this person made an appearance, the post became completely popular

Ugly God

My book follows a formula, but its quality far surpasses that of others, and I am not joking; it is at least ten streets ahead. I have made up my mind; let's get this started!

The fantasy master has seen a surge in subscriptions for several consecutive books, and has also adapted them into games, reaping substantial profits. Although the performance of the last book showed a decline, it still remains at a first-tier level. The new book, upon its initial upload, has consistently dominated various rankings such as the new book list and the click-through list.

The phrase "literature carries the way" in this context makes Zhang Lezhao feel quite awkward. He both envies these wealthy individuals who treat money as if it holds no value. If he could reach such a state one day, it would be worth it for him throughout his life

... ...

The sorrow of the dreamer

His book is quite good, but compared to the new books of other first-tier masters of similar caliber, or even stronger masters, there is still a bit of a gap. This is because some people have not said anything wrong, and he has recently been relying on his past successes. Writing a book in a certain way can lead to popularity, but if the second book follows the same formula, it will lose readers, and the third book...

The content of Chou Shen's post is not particularly good, but it is not outright direct either

Just as he was in a dilemma, a gasp suddenly echoed through the large office of the editorial department, "I swear, I'm not joking, the review section for this book has exploded again"

The kind of fans that the Ugly God has are countless and already very popular, while Wang Dashan is undoubtedly regarded as a super wealthy individual in everyone's mind

Since this situation is not a bad thing and has its benefits, even if the conflict between both parties is not significant, it can still be utilized

Although established authors and new authors do not compete in the same category for the new book rankings, the clicks and interactions are similar

Such an ordinary book can attract twenty million alliances in just two days? This is truly absurd. Do they really think everyone is foolish? Even if it gains temporary attention, how much good reputation can it actually earn?

Upon thinking of this, Guo Zhenjie immediately logged onto the otherworldly forum and began typing away furiously.

This time, it all started to go awry from here, and the chaos that emerged has led to a trend that is simply a massacre of various styles.

It is as hot as it can possibly be

Recently, the most popular book is "I Am Not Joking". Even though it has only been popular for less than a day, the two million followers will definitely sustain it for a while. What if it continues to gain traction?

At first, he felt a slight jealousy, and with his displeasure compounded by being pushed down the rankings, he casually wrote a comment. However, a large number of fans, along with that Wang Dashan's proactive provocation, escalated the situation to a level he had not anticipated.

Of course, that was before yesterday. Since the first ten million alliance of this bizarre book, I am not joking, this book has topped various charts.

Capture an ugly god, the ugly god is absolutely right, I swear, it is definitely a big brush, and a mindless brush at that, in just two days, it brushed two hundred thousand yuan, simply a pig

Having been in the industry for about eight or nine years, Guo Zhenjie can be considered a figure who is half businessman and half literati. Just as stars can become popular through hype without having significant works, the same applies to novels.

Usually, the editors are extremely busy, which leads to delays in responding to authors' inquiries, resulting in the external perception of them as aloof. Well, now it is as it is

... ...

The other party also adhered completely to the rules, and there is nothing more to say.

No matter what, we cannot allow the screen to be filled with voices cursing him

There are not many authors with the character "ugly" in their names, and those who are dubbed as the "God of Ugly" by editors are even rarer; it can only be said that I am ugly to the depths of the Pacific Ocean

In addition to these, having another popular author under my wing would also be beneficial for his performance, yet this author has this particular book

A multitude of thoughts flashed through Zhang Lezhao's mind in an instant, and he hurriedly opened it, only to be met with a series of comments, including various remarks such as "shameless" and others.

Zhang Lezhai is happy again, has it exploded? Isn't that normal? Just now, I just brushed a ten million, what's so strange about that?

In the upscale duplex of a residential complex in Bashan, Chuanan Province, thirty-year-old Guo Zhenjie smoked with a dark expression on his face, pulling the mouse as he smoked, and the more he viewed, the more his anger intensified

The Otherworld Forum primarily serves as a platform for communication and gathering among authors and editors within the community. It features well-developed sections and is one of the best places for industry insiders to catch up on gossip and discover new books, also ranking among the most influential.

At this moment, his Penguin account and the new book review section were also buzzing, with fans everywhere standing up for him and automatically organizing a group to vent their frustrations on his behalf

The phrase "literature carries the way" has yet to be spoken by that person, yet Wang Dashan, with his 20 million gold alliance, has jumped out to launch an attack on him? You must admit, although Wang Dashan's name sounds foolish, he has undoubtedly become the most popular among all readers in the past couple of days

I admit that what I said back then was somewhat out of jealousy, twenty million allies, it feels a bit like sour grapes, but ...

My previous book has already flopped, its popularity has declined, and the new book has taken the top spot, but this is mainly due to the lack of strong competitors at the same time as its release. Compared to that, the performance of this book is not particularly impressive, but if it is marketed well, it seems it could do quite well.

After this sentence was finished, Zhang Lezhào discovered that that fellow, who spoke of conveying the Dao through literature, had disappeared, and there was no response for a long time, which nearly made him feel exasperated to the point of vomiting blood

The kind of extravagant spirit that spends two hundred thousand gold in one go has long attracted too much attention, so the post has indeed been led astray by him, drawing countless passersby to casually mock him as this great deity

However, among the numerous replies, there are still more posts worshipping the wealthy. Although the ugly god is popular, sometimes certain achievements cannot be regarded as entirely accurate, as there is a degree of embellishment involved

It is in disarray

I merely posted a message casually, and although some of it may not sound very pleasant, everything he said is the truth

When Guo Zhenjie felt warmth in his heart, he suddenly had a bright idea before his eyes

... ...

Speechless, how can you still have the face to speak? You are nothing but a big brush, alright? Otherwise, with your old tricks, how could you possibly top various charts? I see you are just envious.

Starting from the first reply, the content became bizarre and varied in its darkness

... ...

However, at the very top, there is a post that has received several hundred replies, and the poster is "I am so ugly that I have sunk to the depths of the Pacific Ocean."
