CHAPTER 891 "SUCCESSOR" / "The Successor"

Afternoon, 5:55 p.m.

The end point is the Chinese Network Author Inspiration Class.

"Off work"

"Do you want to go to a nearby fishing Internet café together on the weekend?"

"Yes, I'm going too"

"Is Big Brother Cui going?"

Cui Geng shook his head: "I won't go, you can go." ”

The author who invited him didn't insist, got up and packed his things, prepared to leave the inspiration class, went out to eat and then went back to rest.

Like the study class, the inspiration class also strictly implements an eight-hour work system, with a working time from 9 am to 6 pm, and a one-hour lunch break from 12 pm to 1 pm.

In fact, with the intensity of work in the inspiration class, it is basically not much different from watching an eight-hour movie.

The inspiration class only started on Thursday, and two days is unlikely to find the right inspiration for most authors, so there are only two or three authors who actually start writing.

Most of the other authors still plan to have a good weekend and wait until next Monday to continue to gather inspiration, and the new book will be considered in the long run.

After all, the current remuneration has been bought out by the website, and the number of updated words required every day has dropped significantly, so Saturday and Sunday can naturally rest normally.

Most of these authors are also very young, most of them between the ages of 22 and 28, so it's no surprise that they meet on weekends to play games at a fishing café.

But Cui Geng was unusual, and did not go to the black with these authors.

After two days of intense searching, he suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in his brain, as if the inspiration that had been exhausted for several months was showing signs of recovery

In the past two days, he rewatched several movies and TV series with high intensity, and consulted a lot of information on the Internet, and the big framework of the whole story appeared in his mind, and the background was also built.

Cui Geng suddenly had a strong desire to create and wanted to write the beginning of this story.

As the saying goes, it's hard to get started. But at the time of creation, this is not necessarily true.

Most of them are full of inspiration at the beginning, and the pen is flying, and the writing is hearty; But the further back I go, the slower I write, the inspiration dries up, the Kavin, and the foreshadowing buried in front of me I forget that the whole structure becomes a mess, and finally it ends hastily and is scolded like a dog.

At this time, Cui Geng was in this state of inspiration, and he was very eager to write the beginning of the story.

Therefore, many times the beginning of creation is simple, and the more you write later, the more difficult it becomes.

Writing is a very good thing, and there is a world of difference between what you write when you are in a good state and what you write when you are in a bad state. Inspiration is fleeting, so once the author has an inspiration, he must immediately grasp and record it, otherwise some details will be lost to him forever.

Cui Geng came to the work area of the inspiration class.

The configuration here is similar to that of a workshop, with a large screen, a mechanical keyboard and an ergonomic chair to ensure the most comfortable coding experience.

Cui Geng didn't actually plan to write for too long, he just wanted to simply write a beginning, which was only an hour or two at most.

Turn on the computer and create a new document.

"Well, where should I start writing this scene at the beginning?"

While Cui Geng was considering the details, the time on the computer unconsciously passed 6 o'clock in the evening.

"Well, I think it's better to use an interlude at the beginning, just start writing from the moment when the protagonist changes his life goals."

Cui Geng made up his mind, reached out to grasp the mouse next to him, and prepared to adjust the font size and line spacing settings of the document to the format that he was most comfortable with.

With the default font and size, he will be uncomfortable.

However, Cui Geng's hand was empty.

Cui Geng: ""

At that moment, he almost thought that he had some disease in the cerebellum, and the mouse was obviously close at hand, so he couldn't be so outrageous if he caught a Parkinson's patient

Cui Geng didn't pay much attention to this little episode, but continued to hold the mouse.

But it was still empty

This time he saw clearly, and when his hand moved over the mouse, the mouse moved strangely and irregularly to the upper right

Cui Geng was shocked, he grabbed it quickly a few times, but the reaction of this mouse was much more sensitive than he imagined, and it kept moving irregularly, and he couldn't catch it

At the same time, a prompt pops up on the computer screen.

"When it's time to get off work, please go back and rest immediately. Continuing to work will raise alarms, leave records, and do so at your own risk. ”

Cui Geng: ""

He was completely stunned, what kind of human confusion was this

I can't even work extra hours if I want to

And this mouse is even more outrageous, there is even this physical method of refusing to work overtime

Cui Geng got off work at the end of the day yesterday, and he didn't stop at all, so he didn't encounter this situation, and today is the first time.

"Forget it, I'll go to a nearby fishing Internet café to write"

Cui Geng never expected that he would one day take the initiative to code words during his break.

There's no way, it's really uncomfortable not to write when inspiration comes, Cui Geng is afraid that he won't write today, and by Monday, he has forgotten all the details.

So, he immediately set off and went to the nearby Internet café to write the beginning of the story.

The first is the title of this story.

After careful consideration, Cui Geng first finalized the English title, and then translated the title into Chinese.

Suesr, successor.

The reason why it is translated as "successor" instead of "successor" is because it mainly "inherits" the superhero abilities and identity of Captain World, rather than inheriting the inheritance or something.

Cui Geng also thought about the shape of the title by the way, and painted the "suess" in it bright red on the basis of the art word suesr with a capital letter.

The title has three different meanings:

First of all, throughout the background of the story, all the superheroes present themselves as the successors of the original superhero "Captain World". Captain World dispersed his superpowers to the United States, giving everyone the possibility of becoming a superhero, and at the same time, he was deeply loved by the people of the United States and was regarded as a superhero.

Therefore, all the subsequent superheroes consider themselves successors, meaning that they will act like Captain World and will not disappoint those who support them.

Secondly, there will be a very crucial plot in the book, which is a TV show called Successor. This show is an important part of the main character's plan.

Finally, the successor, that is, in the word suesr, happens to have the word suess.

Painting Suess in bright red implies that this is ostensibly a story of a "successor", but in fact a story of a "successful person", and the so-called "success" here is ostensibly the "success" of an ordinary person becoming a superhero, but in fact it is a "success" of a careerist who achieves evil ends through dirty means accumulated by blood and killing.

Before starting to write the beginning, Cui Geng also carefully considered the specific way to write.

There are many entry points at the beginning of the whole story, and if you follow the general habit of online writing, most of them will use the narrative in a regular order.

But Cui Geng considered that the content he wrote now should not be written by the method of online texts in the strict sense, but should be written by the method of movie scripts or short and medium-length stories with strong literary nature, so in order to make the story more compact, he decided to use the method of interludes.

Rice country, Hope City, 2010s, a rainy night.

Hope City, one of the most prosperous cities on the east coast of the United States, has complex and changeable weather, sometimes cloudy, sometimes clear skies.

This bustling metropolis is like a huge melting pot, with different styles of architecture everywhere in the city, and beneath the superficial drunkenness and glitz, but the dark alleys hide filth.

It is one of the most prosperous and wealthy cities in the country, and it is also one of the cities with the highest crime rate in the country.

However, with the cooperation of superheroes and the police, just like the name of the city, the crime rate here is decreasing year by year, and the whole city and its citizens are bathed in hope.

Although the crime rate in Hope City is still high in terms of data, people can often see all kinds of superheroes patrolling the air here, and every day you can hear the news that criminal organizations have been destroyed by superheroes, and the sense of safety and happiness of the citizens is at the forefront of the country.

Phil Simmons, the only son of real estate tycoon Ryan Simmons, is a well-known playboy in Hope City.

Sports cars, yachts, private jets, supermodels, and sea parties Phil is very good at spending a lot of money and having fun in time.

Phil is by no means the richest rich second generation, but he is definitely the most high-profile rich second generation, and the 31-year-old has a strong sense of self-promotion, and through the accumulation of day after day, he has accumulated millions of followers for his personal social accounts.

Compared with superheroes, acting and sports stars, and politicians who count the number of fans in tens of millions, millions of fans seem to be nothing, but Phil is not a superhero, a star or a politician after all, as a pure rich second generation, being able to get these fans does show that he has "talent" in some aspects.

Of course, his Simmons Media Company has also contributed a lot in this regard.

At this time, the CEO of Simmons Media, who has been proud of most of his life, is 1.92 meters tall, has a handsome face and a perfect body, has a Juris Doctor and a BA degree, and is on the roof of a skyscraper under construction, crying.

Uncontrolled urine out of fear stained the well-fitting trousers, leaving an embarrassing, slowly expanding dark stain on them.

The high-profile bright red tie he loved so much was clutched on an arm that was extremely thick, bruised and hairy, and his whole body was already on the outside of the rooftop. If it weren't for the arm that grabbed the tie, he would have fallen from a height of more than a thousand feet and had a close contact with the ground.

Phil Simmons' handsome face had been distorted with fear, and tears, snot, and rain mixed together, and a small part of it flowed into his mouth that was crying hoarsely for mercy, and a small part of saliva was squirted out.

"Please, don't kill me"

"My dad has a lot of money, no matter how much money you want, he will give it to you"

At this time, the person holding Phil Simmons's bright red tie was a super strong man who was nearly two and a half meters tall and weighed nearly 200 kilograms.

Tonight, as Phil Simmons drove his sports car for a ride in the rain as usual, the brawny man suddenly appeared in front of his sports car, smashed his beloved sports car to pieces, and then dragged Phil Simmons, who had fallen into a brief coma due to the impact, out of the deformed cab, and carried a chick to the roof of the skyscraper under construction.

By the time Phil Simmons woke up in the icy rain, his entire body was already hanging over the skyscraper, and his net worth was pinned on the hands of this strong man.

Phil Simmons had no intention of resisting, because this fierce and vicious-looking strong man was as powerful as the weakest superhero.

There aren't many "supervillains" like this in Hope City, but each of them is a headache for the police who keep the city safe.

However, although the crime rate in Hope City is high, it is basically a frequent occurrence in neighborhoods with certain poor people and homeless people, and Phil Simmons lives in a wealthy area, and in his thirty-one years of life, he has never encountered this situation now.

Extreme fear left him with cold hands and feet, and his body uncontrollable, and he could do nothing but cry and beg for mercy.

And this villain, who was like a mountain of meat, looked at Phil Simmons's frightened and distorted expression with interest, revealing a mocking smile.

Background, appearance, wealth, intelligence, etc., the villain cannot be compared to Phil Simmons.

But the villain has one thing that Phil Simmons doesn't have, and that's power.
