Silently Writing

(End of Book Thoughts) Part 1

The End, Throw Flowers!

Well, I know that you guys are probably more concerned about the extra chapters than the heart-to-heart I’m about to have with you, so let’s talk about the extra chapters first:

Regarding the ending, some people may find it too bland. But in fact, before I started writing this book, this was the ending I wanted to write, because Su Feng’s professional career, with the previous 887 chapters, was already magnificent enough. Therefore, the main purpose of Chapter 888 is to fill in some of the holes that have not been filled.

Of course, I did think about writing the final battle of Su Feng and Kobe's careers into this chapter, but after changing it again and again, you also know that this ending was delayed for a long time. The main reason is that as a periodic summary, it was too magnificent, which would lead to insufficient length, and too passionate, which would be very pale due to insufficient text. Therefore, after repeated revisions, I still chose this most bland periodic summary as the last chapter of the main text.

In addition, as I also said at the end, there is a lot of content that cannot be written in the main text, not because I don’t want to write it, but as a conscientious author, I have already written more than 5 million VIP chapters, so wouldn’t it be great to publish those passionate, high-pitched, and magnificent things for free?

Moreover, in the free chapters, I can not only write whatever I want without restraint, but I can also quote data and honors from various stages of Su Feng's career without restraint, including writing a personal opening speech of more than 2,000 words for Su Feng, such as: "Now standing in front of you is an all-star player from xx year", and so on.

Therefore, Chapter 888 is the best periodic summary I have after reviewing the previous 887 chapters, which is also the last chapter of the main text (no rebuttals accepted)!

In short =.=, the extra chapter plan for Da Tie (lit. "Blacksmithing," name of the book) has at least dozens of chapters. Huoshan Literature

Including the story of Su Feng, Kobe, and Lin Yi playing together that I wanted to write at the end.

Because when I started writing the book, I also said that Su Feng's dream was to play with Kobe until the end of the world. So in the Universe Basketball League, it is foreseeable that Su Feng and Kobe will have a long journey ahead. Of course, friends who don’t like this part can also choose not to read it in the extra chapters at that time, because it does not affect the plot of the full text, and it will be distributed for free.

In short, from the start of the book in February 2020 to the end of March 2022 when I wrote the words "The End"......

Do you know how much I want to say, how many things I want to complain about, and how many people I want to thank?

Because of my personal health reasons, to be honest, I didn't expect that I could finish writing Da Tie smoothly. After all... I have a minor illness every three days and a major illness every five days. God knows how I survived every day since 2021!

Fortunately, I finally survived, and I also used the ending that I had originally set, according to my original idea.

The full book summary of Da Tie will be left for the postscript (part two) for now.

Um... yes, who said that the postscript can't be interrupted! Can't it be divided into two parts?

In short, after writing the words "The End," there were so many things I wanted to say that I didn't know where to start.

And most of the summaries (self-praise) that I had originally thought of were also forgotten.

So in the postscript (part one), please allow me, readers, to say some of the feelings and thoughts that I can think of now.

First of all, in addition to gratitude, it is still gratitude.

Because without the support of you readers, I might have given up when I wrote about 2 million words. Especially different from Su Feng in the novel... I am not a very persevering person, and I can even say that I am a person who is only enthusiastic for three minutes, and I do whatever comes to my mind.

But it is precisely because of your support that I must have the perseverance to finish writing.

Perhaps, the updates in the middle and late stages of Da Tie were a bit unsatisfactory.

But fortunately, the red hair on my body did not grow out.

Secondly, let's talk about some of the regrets about Da Tie.

To be honest, I feel that I can still take a step further in character descriptions.

Especially by designing better small plots to connect the various characters that appear.

But compared to cheating, the progress of Da Tie is also very obvious. For example, I still remember all the details of the scene where Iverson said goodbye to Su Feng.

In addition, in terms of plot, when I told you about the original plot of Da Tie, I also mentioned that the original outline of Da Tie was actually more interesting.

But there was no way. After that accident happened in reality, I really couldn't bear to see someone in my book being the villain for so long.

Therefore, under the premise of describing the seventeen or eighteen seasons in detail, and abbreviating several seasons, homogenization will inevitably be unavoidable due to the overlap of some plots.

So Qiao also said before that I am a very conscientious author.

Because after Da Tie entered the middle and late stages, many chapters could have ended with the words "The End."

I said that reading books and writing books is a two-way street.

You like to read this book because this book can attract you.

Therefore, many chapters in the middle and late stages of Da Tie were written with the intention of ending the book.

And this is actually to give readers who don't want to see the repetitive plots that may appear later a choice.

Well, if you want to read it, continue reading. If you don't want to read it, delete the book and leave. Could it be that after a "marriage" between you and me, we still have to make a fuss?

In order to be complete, Da Tie had to abandon a lot of content in the later stages.

Because what A Qiao wanted for this book was completeness. So this is why I finally chose this most bland ending at the end.

After all, in this era where extra chapters are popular, the parts of the novel that are not complete can be made up for with extra chapters.

Moreover, free extra chapters can actually allow me to let myself go more than the paid chapters of the main text.

Because some things, if you don't describe them in detail and don't describe the psychological reactions of the characters in detail, you really can't write them.

So, in the middle and late stages of Da Tie, you were making choices, and Qiao has also been making choices.

Of course, after saying so much...

For the extra chapters, in addition to what I have already thought of, if there is anything you want to see, remember to remind me in the comments of this chapter.

Because I am just a book copier, how do I know about Da Tie, how do I know how to write a novel?

And finally, what must be said in the postscript (part one) is...

If my health recovers, Qiao does have plans for a new book.

But whether there will be a new book... it's really hard to say at the moment.

Because it depends on a surgery that I have to do next, which is the cubital tunnel syndrome (ulnar nerve damage in the left hand) that I have been telling you about, which has been bothering me for nearly half a year, causing numbness in nearly half of my left hand.

As we all know, nerve damage requires a long period of recovery.

In addition, there is no good part of my body from top to bottom, and I have all kinds of problems. Therefore, I will inform you readers as soon as possible of the specific situation while writing the extra chapters of Da Tie.

Of course, I must be honest and say that if there is a new book, Qiao is not sure if it will be a basketball novel.

After all... as a smelly coder, Qiao still has a little dream.

You also know that many reasons make it basically impossible for sports novels to win any awards. Moreover, the fact that Da Tie itself can get 10,000 subscriptions is due to various coincidences and the support of you readers, and its success cannot be replicated.

And after writing three books in a row, I myself am likely to have aesthetic fatigue. Therefore, if there is a new book, what the content will be, whether it will be a basketball novel, whether it will be the last book of the "Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain" trilogy... Qiao can't guarantee.

Yes, that's right, it's currently in a Schrödinger's state.

A new book, maybe there will be one, maybe not, depending on my health. What the content of the new book will be, maybe I will write the last book of the trilogy, maybe I will choose to challenge myself, Qiao can only be sure when there is really a new book.

In short!

Qiao's main task in the next few months is to take care of my health and, without the pressure of updates, to further complete the book Da Tie through extra chapters.

Yes, the main text is not the end of Da Tie.

Only after adding the free extra chapters, in Qiao's opinion, can it be considered truly complete.

Okay, I really have to go to sleep now!

Postscript (part one) comes to an end for now.

Thank you to all the readers for your strong support!

The green hills will not change, the green waters will flow forever, there will be a long time to come, we will meet again!
