Chapter 401 "Butterfly Game" (Bonus chapter for Alliance Master "Helpless Instant Noodles")
"I'm 'Crazy Coding Tentacle Monster,' and I have some things I want to say to everyone."
"I know that many friends hope that this book can reach two million, three million, or even five million words, or even never end."
"However, my experience in writing xuanhuan novels is not very rich. The structure of this book was so large from the beginning. The most exciting content will be completed in about seven or eight hundred thousand words, and with the filler, it will be about one million."
"Everyone can see that the recent plot has obviously accelerated. This is because I have already written nearly seven hundred thousand words, and I am actually about to enter the ending."
"I'm afraid that the ending will be too sudden and everyone won't be able to accept it, so I'm giving you a heads-up now. This book may be completed within a week or two, so everyone should be mentally prepared."
"The new book is still in preparation, and I will report to you as soon as I have a plan."
Sure enough, the book review area was already full of wails.
Cui Geng decisively closed the Zhongdian Chinese Website App and didn't look at the readers' comments.
Anyway, he could easily imagine what the comments would be like.
"Just take the scolding. As long as I don't read the comments, these scoldings don't exist."
"Even if I get scolded, I have to write this idea out!"
"I can vaguely feel that this idea will be the brightest highlight of my writing career!"
Cui Geng turned on the computer, created a new document on it, and quickly wrote down his idea.
"Although the upper limit of urban themes is not as high as traditional xuanhuan and xianxia themes, there are definitely a lot of readers. It's a popular theme."
"It's just... most of the cool points of current urban themes are still about mindless posturing and ambiguous relationships, with themes like soldier kings and campus belles as the main focus."
"This obviously doesn't fit the story I want to write."
"It can't be mindless posturing, and it can't have too much preaching, because it doesn't fit the characteristics of this idea."
"So, the tone of the story I want to write should be humorous."
"What I want to give readers is not the traditional sense of coolness, but a God-like feeling of controlling everything..."
While Cui Geng was conceiving, he quickly came up with a good story outline.
The title of the book is *Butterfly Game*.
The protagonist doesn't have a name yet, anyway, he's just a tool.
One day, the protagonist was at home, living a life of leisure, when suddenly a system fell from the sky. A blue ball of light hit him on the head and merged with him.
He found that he could summon this ball of light at will, and through this ball of light, he could observe what was happening in a parallel world at will.
This ball of light came with a game called "Butterfly Game." The name comes from the "butterfly effect."
The protagonist is not the creator of this parallel world.
He has certain permissions in the game, but he can only make some fairly superficial modifications to this parallel world, like a butterfly gently flapping its wings in the Amazon rainforest.
The goal of the game is to create a series of chain reactions through these superficial modifications, which will have a huge impact on the people or events in the parallel world.
Finally, the game will rate the protagonist's methods according to the size of the impact and issue rewards based on the rating.
In this way, the protagonist's permissions become higher and higher, and the scope of influence becomes wider and wider.
So, under the butterfly effect constantly created by the protagonist, many people's dreams are realized in this way...
Cui Geng even quickly thought of how the first small episode of the beginning should be written.
He wanted to write about an independent game developer who was poor but never gave up his dream.
This game developer was poor, and the games he made, although the materials were simple, were full of sincerity.
However, he had no money to promote them, so no one cared about them.
Having no other choice, this game developer had decided to give up his dream and go to work in the factory that his family had found for him.
When the protagonist was observing the parallel world, he discovered him, so he used his authority to find a gaming up-loader and used his golden finger to make this up-loader "happen" to download and play this game.
Under the spontaneous promotion of this up-loader, the game suddenly became popular, and it was out of control from then on, and this independent game developer was able to continue his dream.
Of course, this is just the beginning of the story, which is relatively simple.
As the plot develops, there will be more complex stories.
For example, there is a very rich villain in the book. He is the boss of a super-large multinational company. He always likes to acquire various well-reputed game companies around the world and squeeze the last bit of value out of these companies.
In order to cause these game companies to have a debt crisis and have to sell themselves to him, this villain often makes some small moves, or plants internal spies in the company, or smears them on the Internet. In short, in order to suppress the companies he has taken a fancy to, he does everything he can.
And the protagonist's task is to change some details through the butterfly effect he has mastered, so that the villain's goal will eventually fail, and these conscientious game companies will be spared the fate of being maliciously acquired.
In short, the protagonist will use his golden finger to influence some people in this parallel world in this "butterfly effect" way, so that they can complete their dreams.
These people can be found in any industry. They can be game developers, entrepreneurs, internet cafe owners, singers, actors, directors, authors...
And so on.
Over time, the people the protagonist has helped will also help each other and influence each other, making the development of the situation more unpredictable.
When many supporting characters gradually grow up and their life trajectories gradually overlap, the butterfly effect that the protagonist has mastered can play a greater role.
For example, a child who might have dropped out of school because of the protagonist's butterfly effect, received funding from kind people, successfully completed high school, and completed university, doctorate, and post-doctorate with excellent grades, and participated in the development of an important project;
After this project was successfully developed, it created a new opportunity;
And another supporting character's company was originally on the verge of bankruptcy, but because of this opportunity, it was revived and soared into the sky, becoming an industry giant, profoundly changing the way of life in this world...
In short, the parallel world has been changed by the protagonist into a better world through one butterfly effect after another.
……
After writing down all these ideas, Cui Geng carefully looked at them several times and evaluated them carefully.
"Not a traditional cool point, there must be a lot of risk."
"But, this also means opportunity, because it seems that no one has written this kind of content in urban themes yet."
"Readers don't substitute themselves into the protagonist, but into the God's perspective. Watching the entire parallel world change due to the butterfly effect again and again, this kind of plot should make readers confused and full of expectations for the later reversals."
"There are no stiff face-slapping scenes in the book, only supporting characters who realize their dreams one by one, and a better and better world."
"The whole book will be a humorous style, relaxed and casual, and should be more in line with the tastes of some readers who are tired of the 'don't bully the young and poor' routine."
"Many business stories can be used as material. There are many similar stories at home and abroad that have created business empires because of coincidences."
"Even, a lot of Tengda Group's content can be used as a prototype. Reality is more exciting than fiction..."
The more Cui Geng thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible!
This idea has flaws, it can't be said to be perfect.
But, which idea is perfect?
As long as there is innovation, there will definitely be risks.
Thinking of this, Cui Geng sent the document to his email, and then deleted the document saved on the computer.
Ideas are very important to authors. Once someone sees them, and the idea spreads out and is written by someone else first, it will be a big trouble.
After everything was done, Cui Geng looked at his phone, and it was just time to get off work.
He stood up and walked out.
After going back, first concentrate on finishing the current book.
The framework is not big to begin with. If he writes eight thousand words a day, he can probably finish the original content in a little over a week.
At that time, he will decisively finish the book, accept the scolding, and start a new book at the speed of light, as if nothing had happened.
For this new idea, he will accept the scolding!
Cui Geng left the game room and happened to meet President Pei, who had just rushed back to the company.
Pei Qian saw Cui Geng coming out of the game room, and the smile on his face was even brighter: "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner!"
Cui Geng was stunned: "Ah? But President Pei..."
"No buts, just come with me."
President Pei led Cui Geng to the car without any explanation, preparing to have a big meal at Mingfu Family Banquet.
Cui Geng sat in the car, wondering in his heart: "President Pei looks very happy."
"Could it be that he already knows about today's Tengda spiritual training and your success?"
"Does he want to treat me to dinner and give me some encouragement?"
