Only by knowing oneself and one’s enemy can one be defeated in a hundred battles.

Qin Chuan did not start writing novels directly, but planned to read the suspense novels in this world and then start the process of mystery novels.

It is called controlling market dynamics, but it is actually lazy.

The mystery novel has developed to this day, and its works are vast. However, after Qin Chuan searched it, he found that there are very few excellent masterpieces, and there are many bad works that are just awesome.

Among the bestselling books released on the official website of the Writers Association, there is not a single mystery novel in the top 100 novels. I have been slowly seeing more than 300 of them before the first one appeared.

I guess many people just look for a mystery novel, but they end up seeing a bad work that is unpleasant, and they have lost interest in mystery novels since then.

Anyway, there are very few discussions on suspense and reasoning on the Internet, and they have become niche among niches!

When readers are too lazy to complain about bad things, it proves that this type is indeed not good.

However, many works naturally have some suspense and reasoning elements.

"Is it so miserable?"

Qin Chuan knew that the general public was very enthusiastic about martial arts and fairy tales and historical novels, but he did not expect that mystery novels would be so bleak.

I guess excellent writers have switched their careers to write other types of novels.

Suspense and mystery novels are basically the most difficult to write among all novel types. They require novel techniques and novel overall plot development, and there is no highlight like others.

It is a great challenge for writers. You must innovate, think flexible, and have a high degree of logic. It is simply a tomb of a newcomer!

Writing romance, writing about the city, writing about thrillers, writing about fantasy upgrades, which one is not easier than writing about suspense and reasoning?

Although it cannot be said that bad money drives out good money, it can write more popular novels in a simpler way. Which writer is willing to ask for trouble?

Mystery novels are imported products. At the stage where Chinese culture is particularly strong, such works passed down from abroad are actually not valued at all.

Nowadays, not only are there many people reading mystery novels in China, but also in Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea. They are all the time, but they are still in the era of relatively niche short stories and magazines.

In such a huge China, such a prosperous literary market, there is only the only professional magazine that publishes mystery novels - "The World of Reasoning".

It’s just a family of people who eat alone, and mystery novel enthusiasts can’t find a second one!

Even so, sales are also very bleak, and basically only amateur reasoning writers can be trained to maintain the most basic situation.

The tricks in the novel are highly valued, and the storyline and character are lacking, which is why readers and publishers do not like it.

A novel reads the storyline. Without a complete story, what's the use of having a suspense and a trick?

Short stories are the main ones, long stories are the auxiliary ones, limited authors, insufficient excellent manuscripts, and low royalties.

This is the current situation of Chinese reasoning!

The entire mystery novel has declined so much that there is no difference between the original school and the social school.

No one has the time to classify.

Qin Chuan's popularity is far from reaching the peak. If he became the top writer and then wrote mystery novels, it would really be possible to bring about a wave of craze, just like the revival of spiritual energy in online novels in his previous life, like Cthulhu and the prehistoric world.

They are all created and consolidated in this type of novel, allowing most readers to know and like this type of novel.

This creates demand.

Demand and supply are always complementary.

When readers have more needs, the number of authors who write this type of person will naturally increase.

Then it cycles back and forth and develops into a popular category.

As for how long this popularity lasts, it depends on the authors' creativity.

Since Qin Chuan has already chosen "The Devotion of Suspect X", he naturally wants to be the leader in mystery novels in this world!

Although he is not a pioneer, he is also very good as a master.

Just like the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty was Li Yuan, the emperor most familiar to people was Li Shimin.

At that time, he will spend more time promoting this novel and can no longer be a hand-off manager like "Zhu Xian".

"Why do you feel that you have a heavy responsibility?"

Qin Chuan laughed at himself. He was not the kind of person who likes to gild his face.

Anyway, "The Devotion of Suspect X" is an excellent novel. After writing it, it will be a loss whether anyone can read it or not.

No matter how bad the external environment is, what Qin Chuan is determined to do will not change.

The title of this book is very interesting. The suspect x represents the unknown. Who is the suspect? Readers need to guess during the reading process.

The first suspect in the book is not the same as the last suspect, so x is used instead, which increases the difficulty of reasoning.

At the same time, since the last suspect Shi Hong is a mathematician, the x evaluation commonly used when solving mathematical problems is to echo the content, which is very clever!

An unknown number of a math problem can be solved.

Like math problems, the x in this crime was finally found.

He has a clear idea of ​​the main line of the novel, and now he starts to make character cards for each character in the document.

In this way, no matter how you write, there is a framework that will not suddenly go astray!

There are not many characters appearing in the whole novel. Of course, the protagonist is Shi Shen Tsawa, who is Shi Hong after being modified by Qin Chuan.

This high school mathematics teacher has sparse hair and round face, and looks a few years older than his real age. He originally wanted to be a math researcher, but because of his family relationship, he could not further his studies and could only teach high school students who could not understand the mysteries of mathematics, which made him depressed and quietly fell in love with his neighbor Chen Jing.

Another person who fell in love and killed Shi Hong is Tang Chuan. He and Shi Hong are classmates from Huaqing University. They are now associate professor of physics at Huaqing University. They have a keen insight and can guess the profession of strange women through observation. With these abilities, Yu Chuan can rely on a small amount of information to help college students who are policemen solve difficult cases.

Chen Jing is the cause of the whole story. She failed in her first marriage. After divorced her second husband, she lived a distant life and depended on her daughter for life. After the incident, although Shi Hong helped her overcome the difficulties, she could not hide her impatient treatment with Shi Hong and was very sorry for always implicating her daughter.

The image of the mathematical genius Shi Hong cannot be shaped in just one sentence, but requires a lot of space to use side or other people's evaluation to reflect this person's mathematical ability.

He is obviously a calm and rational mathematical genius, but he has strong feelings hidden in his heart.

Tang Chuan is not the protagonist of the novel, even if he is the real case solver. He can be remembered by readers. In addition to his super reasoning ability, he is also a living person with various emotions, a person who can fight wits and courage with Shi Hong.

The role of Chen Jing is a bit crucial. If it is not handled well, readers will regard her as a troublemaker and criticize her from the moral high ground.

Therefore, Qin Chuan must set up the characters so that readers can sympathize and regret for her.

After understanding these things, Qin Chuan began to slowly write to adapt it locally, but the adaptation was a bit difficult and the progress was slow.

...

In a spacious and bright office, the sound of fingers hitting the keyboard keeps ringing.

Qin Chuan stared at the computer screen attentively, and couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the passage he had just written down, and then deleted all of it.

Don't know what's going on.

Anyway, I always feel awkward to read.

I want to avoid copying the full text, but the things I wrote were not concise and accurate enough.

He knew what to write and what purpose he wanted to achieve, but his progress was stuck in the beginning.

It is difficult to form your own style, and it is even more difficult to change other people's works into your own style!

"Bang bang bang"

A knock on the door suddenly rang.

Qin Chuan quickly switched the document to a web page, and then said, "The door is not locked, please come in!"

Even if the leaders know that Qin Chuan is writing books in the office, it is better not to be caught directly.

"Teacher Qin, the Academic Affairs Office called and said that there were people from the newspapers looking for it, and it was the "Literary Newspaper" that published the "Metamorphosis". I have passed the number of your office to them, and I should be calling it soon."

"Okay, thank you Teacher Song, I will pay attention to answering."

"Whoever."

Teacher Song whispered and left. She was responsible for communicating with various units in the school. Although she was curious about the reasons, she was also very sensible and did not leave it here.

Qin Chuan didn't understand what the people from the Literary Newspaper asked him to do.

He stood up from the computer, searched for a while before he found the phone that was already a little dusty, which no one had used before!

If you have any questions, you will contact me via your mobile phone, and you will not use the office phone number at all.

Who can expect that there will always be people in the university teachers' office?

"Dingling..."

The urgent ringtone rang out immediately. Qin Chuan picked up the microphone and said, "Hello, this is the sports group office. Who are you looking for?"

"Hello comrade, I am Lei Hao, the editor-in-chief of Literature and Art Newspaper. Can you ask if Teacher Qin Chuan is here?"

Previously, Guo Zhijian could not find Qin Chuan's mobile phone number, so he could only search through his work unit when submitting the article in "Metamorphosis", so he contacted Xingcheng University of Science and Technology.

Qin Chuan was a little surprised when he heard this, "Hello, Editor Lei, I am Qin Chuan."

He had no idea what relationship he had with Lei Hao, so why did he find himself?

Lei Hao actually noticed it vaguely. After hearing Qin Chuan's full of breath, he replied: "Teacher Qin, your short story is very well written, and readers like it very much, so I made a special call to make an appointment with you. If you have time, you can publish the written short story in our literary newspaper. The royalties are calculated according to the top level. In addition, I have a small thing. This year, the Writers Association will soon start recruiting new members. I wonder if you have ever thought about joining the Writers Association? I can be your recommended person."

"Writing Association?"

Qin Chuan was still calm when he heard the news of an appointment before, and even expected it.
Chapter completed!
