Silently Writing

Summary of the 03/04 Season Plot

In terms of overall word count, the approximately 250,000 words of the 03/04 season still make it a mid-to-short chapter in *Da Tie*.

Especially after removing some necessary plot-laying scenes, I also had to consider leaving enough screen time for Su Feng's games and for the star players of the same era...

Therefore, in terms of the narrative style of the games, careful readers may have noticed that Qiao tried to be as concise as possible when possible, and adopted a "highlight reel" approach in the game descriptions of this chapter.

That is, describing more exciting moments while glossing over unimportant ones.

So, before discussing the summary of this chapter, although all of you readers have expressed understanding to Qiao, here, in order to avoid some people who don't know the truth from using this to make a point in the future, let Qiao talk about it again.

First, everyone who understands knows about the sensitive issues that currently exist in basketball novels.

But if you can't see the mosaics in Qiao's book, can't see the ending of the Spurs in my book, can't see Qiao's special transformation of the Sixers into the Digital people after a certain incident last year, can't see someone going to Africa, can't see someone not even existing in my book, and instead use the 03/04 season that Qiao just started writing about to make a point, then Qiao would like to ask, Qiao can't possibly overturn all the plot he designed, then step on it, spit a mouthful of saliva, and then ascend in a spiral, right?

As early as before starting to write *Da Tie*, the overall outline of the 03/04 season was designed so that Iverson and Yao would join forces in Philadelphia to win the championship this season. On the one hand, it's because I didn't want Yao Ming to have to rely on the protagonist's coattails to win the championship in the later stages in every one of my books. On the other hand, from the perspective of Su Feng's current timeline, the Sixers are the strongest team in the 03/04 season. It's impossible for me to overturn the overall structure that I've spent eight years completing in this timeline for the sake of someone.

Secondly, if I were to change my original outline for the sake of someone, not to mention how much content I would need to modify to change this design, what if the originally stable rhythm collapsed as a result? Then, may I ask, who do you think Qiao should reason with at that time? Do you think readers will listen to my excuses and reasons then?

Changing the outline randomly will not only make the originally smooth rhythm change its flavor, but also how should Qiao let many of the stories that Qiao has designed reasonably appear one by one?

Therefore, this is the last time I will explain it. It's like in my book, why I'm still complaining about Harden all day long, but I don't talk about his current improved passing skills.

Because before Su Feng transmigrated, Harden had not yet experienced such a transformation, so if you write this part of the content in my book, it wouldn't be reasonable.

So, for the Krause of Su Feng's timeline, for the Iverson of Su Feng's timeline, for the Yao Ming of Su Feng's timeline, since I had already decided on such an outline before this incident happened, and the plot had been paving the way in this direction before, then if I had to change the outline and prevent Yao Ming and Iverson, who were most likely to win the championship, from winning the championship, do you think someone deserves that?

Moreover, if you are influenced by such a petty person, doesn't that mean that you care about him very much? And what he wants is for you to care about him very much, right?

Okay, let's talk about serious matters.

As of now, *Da Tie*'s word count should be about the same as my previous book, *Wai Gua*.

However, careful old readers know that *Wai Gua* had already shown signs of collapsing after entering 2.6 million words.

Up to now, *Da Tie* should be considered to have officially entered its mid-stage.

Both books, about 2.9 million words, cover about eight seasons of content.

However, in terms of character richness, *Wai Gua* cannot compare to *Da Tie*.

Because when I was writing *Wai Gua*, my biggest regret was that I didn't write the scene where Lin Yi and Curry reunited well.

As of now, *Da Tie* is not only still very vibrant, but also the completeness of its eight seasons has completely surpassed *Wai Gua*.

On the one hand, this is thanks to the progress I made after writing *Wai Gua*, and on the other hand, it is also because of your encouragement that Qiao's writing skills have improved further after the completion of the previous book.

Looking at the first 8 seasons of Su Feng's career, the operation of 8 years and 3 championships should be "absolutely unique" in the current爽文 circle, after all, generally, books written like this are either on the road to failure or have already failed.

And here, Qiao also wants to say something.

If *Da Tie* pursued a one-sided sense of rationality, then Su Feng wouldn't have so many wonderful moments.

There is rationality in irrationality, and irrationality in rationality. After fantasizing, I can justify myself. Qiao dares not say that he has recreated reality, but at least, in Su Feng's timeline, I have managed to get Su Feng to achieve 10,000 subscriptions with only three championships in his first eight seasons.

Just like I said before, if you are just chasing a book to see the protagonist win the championship, then *Da Tie* is definitely not the most suitable for you.

Because when *Da Tie* unfolds as a group portrait novel, when each character has their own label, what I want to write more is a *Quan Zhi Gao Shou* (The King's Avatar) in basketball novels.

And if you are chasing a novel that completely conforms to reality, then *Da Tie* is definitely not the most suitable for you either.

Because in order to create a Jianghu (martial world) that makes people feel happy and comical, I used a light novel approach to automatically block out many disturbing plots.

And if you are a staunch fan of a certain player, and you feel like I'm writing nonsense as long as I praise other stars a few times, then *Da Tie* is definitely not the most suitable for you either.

Because you might not believe it, but when I was writing *Wai Gua* last time, because the protagonist led Paul to win the championship, I became a Paul fan, because I praised Curry in the book, so later I became a Curry fan, and then, I became a Klay fan, a Kobe fan, a LeBron hater...

So, if you can't see the better growth that each character in my book has gained because of Su Feng, and you insist on introducing reality, then this book is really not necessarily suitable for you.

After all... if we follow your logic, then I might still be a Duncan fan, an O'Neal fan, a LeBron fan, a Wade fan, a Melo fan...

To put it bluntly, as an author, since I have already drastically altered the careers of most people in this timeline, then definitely, apart from certain individuals, the careers of most people will not be the same.

Otherwise, I would just copy reality and be done with it. Why would I bother to use so much brainpower to study their future and their careers?

Therefore, to sum up, you will find that, just like Qiao said before, with a thousand readers of web novels having a thousand different versions of *Da Tie* in their eyes, *Da Tie* is definitely not the best basketball novel.

But...

It is definitely the best basketball novel that Qiao has ever written. (Reader: You t

But, Qiao still allocated it this way.

Because in order to completely explain Su Feng's star career, and to ensure a certain amount of small money to support Qiao's creative enthusiasm, Qiao can only do it this way.

Even when designing the *Da Tie* system, Qiao had wondered if readers would think that this cheat that requires Su Feng's own efforts to improve is too Low.

But later, Qiao still chose this Low cheat that requires Su Feng's own efforts to continuously improve.

Because only such a Low cheat can make Su Feng pay the corresponding price in order to become stronger.

Therefore, only after the end of Su Feng's first 8 seasons, can there still be so many readers who want to see Su Feng's 9th season, 10th season, and even the final season of his career that Qiao has already begun to pave the way for.

To be honest, I don't know how many readers will still be following when I write about the last season of Su Feng's career.

But I believe that the readers who follow until then will have a kind of feeling when they review Su Feng's career...

"Wow, does this star really exist?"

As of now, it is exactly the tenth year that Su Feng has been in this timeline.

Qiao spent more than 2.9 million words to describe these ten years.

And the next 10 years...

At least in Qiao's design, I personally feel that it will be the most exciting 10 years of Su Feng's career.

And here, let me also borrow a quote from *Quan Zhi Gao Shou* to summarize this section of the plot.

Ten years of glory, as always!
