Amidst the repeated calling and urging from book fans, Yang Yi’s new book “Yu Zui” was finally released on time on July 20 . At the same time, “Desert Wolf King”, the new book of “Bullet Scar” of Iron Blood Net, has also been updated .
Judging from the publicity momentum of Iron Blood Net over the past week, if the two powers meet, one should end up wounded . People who wanted to watch the fun flocked into the two websites one after another, trying to distinguish which one was better!
However, just as the water army hired by Iron Blood Net was ready to pour in to make trouble, Qiyue was indifferent, as if they didn’t care about the showdown at all . They didn’t even have the intention of responding .
As to why, it goes back to a few days ago .
Qiang Zi got the manuscript of Yang Yi’s first volume entitled “Rookie Story” a few days earlier than the readers . After reading it, the first thing Qiang Zi felt was actually gratification .
Yang Yi, this guy, finally learned to break the chapters! The more than 200,000 words manuscript was divided into 55 chapters, each with more than 4,000 words . A standard that was comfortable for Qiang Zi and other editors in the editorial department .
That’s right! Writing webnovel without breaking chapter, what’s the different with salted fish?[1]
According to Yang Yi’s request, Qiang Zi was set up three updates a day, updating more than 10,000 words a day, which not only satisfied the reading desire of book fans, but also not be like “Soldier Assault”, which had too much updates in a day . As a result, it ended in less than two weeks!
The second thing that Qiang Zi felt was that Yang Yi was indeed Yang Yi! The writing style was as delicate as before and the story design still grabbed people’s hearts firmly as before . What was more wonderful was the portrayal of the characters . Qiang Zi thought that what Yang Yi wrote were not fictional characters, but real living persons!

The first part was very exciting, and according to Yang Yi’s feedback, he planned to write the novel “Yu Zui” into a long novel, with a total of eight volumes, reaching no less than 2 million words .
More words and a wonderful content, this was the rhythm that a webnovel should have!
Although he still hoped that Yang Yi could continue to write military novel to snatch popularity for Qiyue, it was difficult to beat Yang Yi’s decision . After confirming that Yang Yi’s novel was still as wonderful as before, Chief Editor Hu Da decided that on the day the new book was uploaded, Yang Yi’s “Yu Zui” would be promoted through the entire channel of Qiyue!
As a result, when eager fans wanted to find the location of “Yu Zui”, they were pleasantly surprised to find that it is everywhere . In every page of Qiyue, they could find an advertisement for “Yu Zui” . One had to just click on one of them to go straight to the page of the book .
“Wait, who can tell me why Great Yang’s “Yu Zui” appears under the urban column?”
The book review area exploded even before they started reading .
The editors of Tiejun were also ready in full battle array . They gathered in the conference room and clicked on the home page of “Yu Zui” on a big screen, but they were dumbfounded to see the book appear in the urban column .
“How could that be? Yang Yi, isn’t he competing against us? Why didn’t he write a military novel, and switch to writing urban novel?” Yu Wan was young and couldn’t hold his temper, and cried out in disbelief .
In fact, they forgot that it was them who were clamoring for a showdown, but Qiyue and Yang Yi never responded . And the people in Qiyue editorial department were also evil-minded . When they saw that the Iron Blood Net had made such a big mishap, they were dumbfounded at first, but they immediately hide all the information of the book, including the brief introduction…

Seeing this scene, Lingyun was at a loss . He seemed to have punched air .
Didn’t this showdown become a laughingstock of others? Their own contestant went to the ring, only to find that the opponent didn’t show up at all . And when they glance over their shoulder, they found that he practiced swimming and rowed happily in the water . [2]
“Boss Lingyun, a man surnamed Duan called and asked, ‘the previously prepared speech is no longer useful . Are they still going to continue to make trouble[3]?’” An editor next to him covered the microphone and whispered to Lingyun .
They were the Internet Water Army hired by Iron Blood Net . Of course, not all the editors knew about it . Lingyun even applied for secret funds with his bosses at the beginning .
Lingyun’s face was a little pale . After being silent for a while, he clenched his teeth and said, “Continue, let them figure it out their own way . The money has been spent, and I want to see a splash when it hits!”
…… .
Mu Yucheng was a little busy during the day . Several project team leaders, including him, went to Shanghai on an official business trip to have a meeting with their guests to explain their own program framework . Then after the meeting, they have to have dinner and socialize .
Therefore, it was only when Mu Yucheng returned to the hotel in the middle of the night that he had time to take out his cell phone and log on to Qiyue website to read Yang Yi’s new book .
“Urban?” This was also the first time that Mu Yucheng saw the difference, but he was able to accept it . After all, compared with military literature, he preferred urban literature as it was close to reality .
Anyway, he has to support Yang Yi’s books, so he first casually gave reward, and then read the book .
It was agreed that “Yu Zui” would have three updates a day and there really was three updates a day . Mu Yucheng finished reading it in a little while, and he always felt that it was nowhere near enough and was not satisfied at all .

But he couldn’t do anything about it . The author, Yang Yi, was just like he never existed . No matter how much fun the readers had or how much money they rewarded, he still did his own thing, update according to his original plan, and wrote the plot according to his own ideas .
Therefore, the group of fellows in the book review area gradually formed a habit . They pretended that Yang Yi could see their complaints and comments about him and say hi .
Mu Yucheng had no new content to read, so he clicked on the book review section to see how those guys were complaining .
But soon, Mu Yucheng frowned .
Why was the book review section so chaotic?
There were some people scolding Yang Yi for not writing a military novel, and switching to urban novel was a betrayal to his readers! Some of them were scolding Yang Yi’s new book . That it was not as good as the previous “Soldier Assault” and “Drawing sword” . Saying that whoever was willing to read a police gangster novel, they could go read it . Anyway, they were not going to pay for it . They were dropping it!
Others were angrily spurting blind recommendation . The wind of the whole channel was blowing to a novel that was completely unknown, which was a money trap for readers and unfair to other authors!
Mu Yucheng saw that many familiar names were also involved . They generally complained about the content of Yang Yi’s new book . But what’s more, there were many first-class accounts that has never been seen before that were stirring up trouble .
“Ha Ha!” Mu Yucheng has been in the IT field for a long time . He was used to seeing such a scene and could tell what is going on at a glance .
He was sneering at the moment, madly pressed the keypad on his mobile phone, and then sent a long book review on his mobile phone: “Water army, get the heck out . Book friends who like Yang Yi, please give the author a little patience!”
Although it was inconvenient because he didn’t have a computer, Mu Yucheng, relying on his good memory, still listed some example .
“Yang Yi is still the original Yang Yi . The beginning of this book “Yu Zui” seems plain, but in fact it is not simple . Despite the protagonist of “Yu Zui” having a little low sense of existence, he is still the most special character among all people!”
“Yang Yi’s protagonists have never been an ordinary person . Let’s think about it: Xu Sansan, simple-hearted and timid, but can burst out amazing energy . Li Yunlong, who is of humble origin, treacherous and cunning, but invincible . Now, although, presently, the protagonist of “Yu Zui” is slippery, lazy and unprogressive, according to my understanding of the author, in the future, he will certainly grow into a great man . And isn’t the most interesting thing the process of his growth?”
In fact, there wasn’t much description of the protagonist in the first three chapters of “Yu Zui” . The reason why Mu Yucheng was able to analyze the character of “Yu Zui” was also the result of his serious reading!
“The police are also soldiers defending the country in another sense . Although Yang Yi has switched to the urban novel, I think he is also writing military novel in another sense!”
“I appeal to book friends who like Yang Yi not to worry . Give Yang Yi some time . I believe he can create a new and very interesting story for us!”
“As for the water army, please stop . Your ugly faces are too obvious! Don’t think that we don’t know that you were sent by a certain military website!”
Mu Yucheng’s post was a little late, but it was still seen by many book friends . Their original anger gradually calmed down, and then they used the method of following up to push up Mu Yucheng’s post .
Although it was inevitable to lose a few fans of military novel, “Yu Zui” was just beginning, and who can say for sure about its future achievements?
