whining cum tidbits
First of all, I have to say that the things about Freiburg in the previous chapter may not be found on Baidu Encyclopedia. This was written by me after I opened dozens of web pages, and I combined various information and some fiction. I only took an hour to the first half of this chapter, but the second half took five hours.
Because most of my time is spent searching for information, I first used "Youth German Cup final, Dortmund U19, Freiburg U19" as the keyword, and I didn't find anything valuable. Later, I found "Freiburg U19" as the keyword, but I didn't find many things, and then changed to "Freiburg Youth Training", and only found some sporadic player names, so I searched the names of these players one by one, and found the more critical coach name - Streich.
Then I searched more and more, and the face of Freiburg U19 gradually became clear in my mind. Although there are still some things that are not sure, this is a novel after all, and some places are just fictional. For example, I don’t know if the tactics of Freiburg U19 are like this. This set of tactics was actually a tactic that Streich later promoted after becoming the head coach of Freiburg first team.
But I moved it to Freiburg U19, and I think it's understandable that Streich's tactics in the first team should have been in the form of his coaching the youth team, right? Just do a certain degree of exaggeration.
Anyway, I am the author, and I am the biggest in this world.
I said so much just to tell some people, it is not that what you don’t like to see is water, nor does it mean that you think that the things you can find on Baidu are all water - you are willing to spend five or six hours switching back and forth across dozens of search pages to summarize the content of the second half of my chapter, which is your ability. It is also your ability to know Freiburg football without Baidu, but it does not mean that when I write this part, I just need to write a sentence "Please follow the XXX keyword Baidu search."
This principle is also applicable in Chapter 3 of this volume and Chapter 29 of this volume, "Strength". At that time, someone said that I was really wronged after spending money to read Baidu Encyclopedia - that was not copied from Baidu Encyclopedia. In order to understand the football system, I also searched in the highest-end bookstore in Chengdu for a long time and found a football-related book, which is a professional book called "Football Encyclopedia". The contents of those two chapters were basically made from this book. People who read Baidu Encyclopedia could not find it when they went to Baidu Encyclopedia...
Please respect the effort spent by an author. Don’t keep silent when you see that the plot has not progressed as you wish. The content I spent so much effort to find information was denied by you in one sip of water. Do you think I am so terrible?
Football novels are not fantasy novels, and they cannot allow the author to perform as he wishes. They must create fiction based on reality. It is necessary to check information, and it is also necessary to reflect information in novels. I am not a human search engine, and I am just open to the changes in the world football world over the past decades. I am not a senior football emperor who has studied a lot of research on a certain league. Many times I can only use search engines and various materials to create.
This is something that takes time and effort.
This is also the slow writing of this book - I write 15,000 words a day, so I really don’t have time to check any information, I can only write based on experience and instinct.
But if I want to write something different in this book, I have to check a lot of information, from football to all aspects of life abroad, which takes time and compresses the time for writing. So I can't explode until now, and the red line of ten chapters has been wandering up and down. Recently, due to hand pain, the ten chapters of the manuscript have become six chapters of the manuscript, and this chapter was written before my hand was injured...
I know everyone wants to watch the outbreak. Don’t I want to write 400,000 words a month? Then I will get more money. Why not do it?
But not for.
I spent a lot of effort on this book, from the character setting to the story direction, to the theme of each volume, I thought about it seriously and overturned it, just to strive for excellence and write something that is basically different from before.
If you think that this kind of pursuit of excellence and slow work and meticulous work is "water", then I can also take the "no water" path of 15,000 words a day, but are you willing?
The complaints are too strong to prevent heartbreak, but some complaints are really a bit.
I hope you can understand me.
Many years after the championship godfather finished his book, I accidentally went to the historical book review area of the championship godfather, and I could also see many people shouting water at that time.
Whether water or not is a very subjective question. If you don’t like to read it, you will feel water. But as an author, I have to write some things even if some readers don’t like to read them, otherwise the novel will be incomplete.
The same is true for the character Mark. His existence is very necessary. He is also an important figure in Zhou Yi's career in Dortmund. However, he needs to grow and make progress. It is impossible to be likable from the beginning. However, his growth also contrasts with Zhou Yi's growth and maturity.
He is an important aspect of the character who highlights Zhou Yi.
I hope everyone can give me and the characters in the book more patience. Every character who appears is meaningless and necessary.
For the role of Mark, I have discussed it with my friend many times, and the clues about Mark's development have even been repeatedly overturned many times, just to present a vivid and meaningful character and the plot story he brought, and even some ideological connotations.
The complaints end here. If they affect everyone's mood of reading, I apologize. If you are not satisfied with my explanation and think that my attitude is wrong, whether it is taking off the shelves or unsubscribe, it is your own business. I can't go through the computer and force you to continue reading with a knife, right?
Chapter completed!
