Chapter 8: No Comparison, No Harm

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

At this moment, he realized that a web literature master had declared war on him

Urban, Xianxia, fantasy, science fiction, and so on, each category has a large and dedicated readership. These readers rarely explore books outside their preferred genres. No matter how popular you are or how well you write, I have no interest in your subject matter, and naturally, I am reluctant to click on it.

Once countless readers find his book excellent, even if it is not truly remarkable, the psychological impression formed will be difficult to change

Thus, he has basically concluded that it is not the other party's dissatisfaction with him, but rather an attempt to create another hype

However, Tang Zhun can accumulate it; as long as this power is accumulated within his body, he can unleash it at any time he desires

Then thoroughly depict the helplessness and hard work of an ordinary author, and only at the end critique the absurdity and childishness of this book, "Joke," from a literary perspective, leaving no stone unturned in the criticism of the book.

After seeing the post by Guo Zhenjie on the Otherworld Forum from the link sent by Wang Dashan, Tang Zhun almost laughed out loud after reading it.

Tang Zhun also discovered that his own books and the pen name he used to convey ideas have begun to be characterized in this post and in the discussions surrounding it, rapidly becoming representative examples of the opposing viewpoint.

Accumulating two hundred Wang Dashas? Then he can accumulate for ten minutes, or he can explode at any time

Although Tang Zhun was aware that maturity was a good thing, he still felt a degree of dissatisfaction within himself. Fortunately, that emotion could be restrained, and as he lit a cigarette, he also began to feel a sense of anticipation.

Qihang Chinese Network has a very large amount of traffic, and the clicks on the previous two books were already quite high, but they absolutely do not account for the majority of the traffic on the entire internet

What do you think he relies on to achieve this through the writing style and plot of the novel? Even if Tang Zhun wanted to do so, to truly convey something through the power of words and the understanding of the Dao, he knows that it is fundamentally impossible in the short term

However, this time it is not the account of Wang Dashan, but rather a book friend named Ye Shuihan

This is entirely different from the concept of Wang Dashan experiencing an immediate outburst and being completely unable to control himself

Now it is different; the curiosity for gossip is something everyone possesses

Something has happened, Wen Da

After Wang Dashan experienced it, he felt the inspiration of the Dao rhythm igniting the power of fire, which lasted for a maximum of a few minutes. Subsequently, his resistance to flames was slightly enhanced, and after viewing it once, the same template would no longer have any effect.

How outrageous, that ugly person still has the audacity to criticize Wen Da even to the depths of the Pacific Ocean, they must be tired of living. Their writing is nothing, completely formulaic with just a different facade, and they still have the nerve to speak of Wen Da, I am about to explode with anger

In order to compare the gossip, one might as well click to take a look. This indicates a significant influx of new readers. New readers do not engage with urban or fantasy genres; if they read both books, it will indeed create a substantial psychological gap.

"Battle Post? The writing of the Ugly God is truly remarkable, no wonder he is a great deity; it brings me to tears. Isn't it so? I think of how I stay up late every day writing, losing my hair, yet still struggling. My monthly income is only 1,000 yuan, while these second-generation rich kids casually throw around hundreds of thousands. Damn it."

Without comparison, there is no harm

Indeed, the facts are as such. Amidst the various heated discussions online and the rapidly brewing topics, the book "I Am Not Joking" has become increasingly popular, with a flood of criticism and rumors, suddenly overshadowed by a red bomb.

This is the mindset that a merchant should possess

The author of that book is foolish, the friends are foolish, and now they are provoking the ugly god? I'm drunk; I finished reading that book yesterday, and it had no highlights. I couldn't even force myself to finish 10,000 words. Compared to the ugly god's new book, it is worlds apart. Now I realize how strong the ugly god's abilities are

Once he accumulates one hundred, Tang Zhun can unleash a few minutes of fiery power, even without a trace of talent, which is comparable to the ability level of Wang Dashan.

You say that offending a second-generation individual, or perhaps more than one, is not a big deal? The world is too vast, and there are so many second-generation individuals; how can one be cautious everywhere to avoid conflicts? Guo Zhenjie can now be considered a wealthy first-generation individual, earning over 10 million annually, accumulating several tens of millions over the years, and he knows many people. What is there to be afraid of?

Ten Thousand Alliances, once again we meet Ten Thousand Alliances

The mentality of resentment towards the wealthy has existed for quite some time, and he himself once harbored a slight inclination towards it. He never imagined that in the blink of an eye, he would become the target of others' resentment.

As long as countless readers can gain a deeper understanding of the book "Joke" and see his posts, when those posts resonate with countless people, many will naturally compare his book with others, which will further highlight the quality gap between the two books that are both on various lists

With increased fame, it is possible to attract a second genius with talent akin to that of Wang Dashan. This transient and short-term dissemination of literary power, for the issuer itself, even if effective, remains short-lived and fundamentally differs from that of the recipient.

The second and third observations remain unchanged.

The power he feels is also a one percent return to the disseminator

In just a few hours, the clicks surpassed those of one or two days under normal circumstances, and the data for recommendations was similarly impressive, causing Guo Zhenjie to laugh joyfully on the spot

Is Wen Da there?

A post forcefully juxtaposes "I am not joking" with the idea that literature conveys principles, prominently featuring tags such as "second generation" and "playing around," deeply stirring the resentment of ordinary people towards the wealthy

Tang Zhun returned home after lunch, and the computer was running sluggishly again due to the various notifications from the Penguin account. As he opened one strange message after another, he saw that Wang Dashan had sent dozens of messages all by himself, and Tang Zhun became intoxicated once more

... ...

Almost laughing to the point of breathlessness, Tang Zhun sat down at his computer desk and took a sip of water. He wasn't too angry, as the other party was actually helping him.

... ...

Finally, after completing and reviewing the lengthy text, Guo Zhenjie readily posted it using his own account and began to share it in the author and reader groups

Only children distinguish right from wrong, while adults only consider benefits and drawbacks

It is portrayed in such a three-dimensional and vivid manner, filled to the brim with hatred

Once a book is perceived by the public as trash, devoid of any merit, it becomes exceedingly difficult to reverse that impression. Regardless of any future improvements in the quality of its content, it will be cast into the abyss.

For example, in the book review section, the posts seeking support from the great deity have all disappeared. As I scroll through the entire book review section page by page, it is filled with insults.

But it really doesn't matter; as long as it is beneficial to him, that is enough

Guo Zhenjie is indeed a master; he possesses literary talent and an even stronger ability to craft stories. Otherwise, he would not have reached this point. A master cannot represent an ordinary author. Guo Zhenjie also emerged from being a novice and facing setbacks.

Bring a stool and sit down to wait for the battle

Only countless talents can compare and understand how high his level is and how much he surpasses others

How can we make more people see it? Of course, it is fame

In order to profit from speculation? Even the experts engage in this, and they do it quite skillfully? It truly is impressive.

As expected, after only a few messages were sent, Guo Zhenjie discovered that his post had gone viral. Not only was the number of replies skyrocketing, but some individuals also took the initiative to copy it into the review section of the book "Jokes," attracting countless readers. This simultaneously drew in readers who typically only read urban literature or historical literature, making them suddenly aware of his work.

He relies on a textbook-style template related to his works

"Wen Da? Should I show him something else?"

Although it is somewhat unpleasant, this is indeed a good thing for me, as this ugly deity is actively helping me promote and accumulate power

The probability of being one in ten thousand suggests that among one hundred million people, there could potentially be one hundred super geniuses. In this republic, the population exceeds one billion.

A few hours later, the battle became increasingly intense, and the popularity of both books was rapidly expanding

Under a powerful title, Guo Zhenjie displays his literary talent, yet places himself in the perspective of an ordinary author. Despite his hard work in conceptualizing and writing, he receives little in return. However, the actions of some wealthy individuals, who treat their endeavors as mere play, can instantly match the achievements of his years of effort, or even reach heights that he cannot attain in several years. This world is... too dark

Tang Zhun, after all, was a 30-year-old in his previous life, not someone in their early twenties who acted impulsively. He also saw and felt the nuances in the lines, the charm of being so ugly that he had to dig a pit in the depths of the Pacific Ocean to create a name for himself

He knows that he originally had no reputation, and that he gained countless attractions through the support of the wealthy, which is a joke. After this post, with his influence, he will immediately become the target of envy, disdain, and contempt from countless people.

The saying "three men can create a tiger" originates from this.
