Chapter 998 Give the Little Fangirl Space to Imaginate
The restaurant has a nice environment and of course the prices are very attractive!
Chen An's way of ordering food made Yu Hui, who was mentally prepared, feel very painful!
"Anything else?"
"No need for idols, these are enough!"
Yu Hui's heart didn't settle down until the waiter left with the menu. She was really afraid that Chen An would just order a bottle of red wine worth thousands of dollars!
"I don't usually like to talk while I'm eating, so if you have any questions, you can ask them now!"
Yu Hui straightened her hair, looking a little embarrassed. "Idol, I've attended your lectures before, and I always felt unsatisfied. I've watched your videos many times since then and learned a lot, but I also have more doubts in my heart!"
"For a moment, I really didn't know where to start!"
“Be brief and to the point, and ask the most important questions!”
Yu Hui pursed her lips in frustration. Could her idol be a completely straight man? He'd already mentioned a lot of issues, and she hoped to have more opportunities to discuss them in the future!
"My idol, I started writing books in my sophomore year of college and have written seven so far, but sales haven't improved at all. I don't know what's causing it!"
“What genres do you write about?”
“It’s inspirational!”
"Where's the title of the book?"
"Good habits to improve efficiency! Live up to your youth and forge ahead courageously... 20 things college students must do!"
Yu Hui observed Chen An's expression as she spoke. Seeing that he looked strange, she asked nervously, "My idol, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
“If you go to the hospital to see a doctor, and there’s a young doctor and an older doctor, who would you choose?”
Although she didn't know why Chen An asked this, Yu Hui was very cooperative and said, "Of course it's the older one!"
“Why choose this way, allowing young doctors to have higher degrees and receive a better education?”
“Older doctors have more experience!”
"Actually, this is just human subjective consciousness at work. People subconsciously associate older, more experienced people with greater reliability!"
"In life, people have become accustomed to judging the quality of an event, a person, or an object based on their subjective consciousness!"
Yu Hui nodded in agreement!
"To put it bluntly, motivational books are nothing more than conveying a message. This approach has been done before, and it has been successful!"
"Whether a book can be spread and recognized by more people depends first and foremost on the author himself. If you were to buy a book, would you rather buy a work by a famous person or a work by an unknown author?"
"Do you have doubts in your heart? Who is this person? Is the experience he teaches real? Has it been verified? As the saying goes, you can't understand other people's difficulties without experiencing their suffering!"
Chen An picked up the water cup and took a sip, giving Yu Hui some time to digest!
After thinking about it carefully, I realized that what Chen An said was very simple and also to the point. Even if I knew where the problem lay, it would be of no use!
"My idol, to put it in a positive way, I'm an author who has published several books. To put it bluntly, I'm just a small-time writer!"
"The publishing house gave me the project, and I was just responsible for executing it and earning some royalties, so there were many problems I couldn't solve at all!"
In the original drama, Yu Hui would soon start her own business, set up a book planning company, and bring Xiang Zhen along. However, in the end, because of Yu Fan's petty obstruction, she lost everything and had to sell the orchard in her hometown to pay off her debts!
If I point out the crux of the problem now, I wonder if it will have any impact on the follow-up!
If I don’t point out the crux of the problem, will my image as an idol collapse?
After a quick thought, Chen An had made up his mind. This woman's unwillingness to be outdone was destined to lead her to failure!
"The sales of books are not only affected by the work and the author, but also by market trends!"
Yu Hui's eyes immediately lit up, this was related to her next plan!
"Idol, I've always been confused about market trends. You have a unique perspective. Could you please explain this to me in detail?"
"Since you're my fan and you invited me to dinner, I'll naturally explain the problem to you thoroughly!"
"Idol, you're so nice!"
With both hands supporting cheeks, lips slightly parted, and eyes full of desire, this look is really good and I must try it in the future!
"The truths in this world, when it comes down to it, are really just that few. Whether it's the obscure works left by our ancestors or the so-called philosophies of the West, they're all basically the same!"
"So-called inspirational stories are nothing more than weaving these truths into stories close to reality, allowing readers to gain encouragement and comfort from them, break the seriousness, relieve anxiety, and rebuild a sense of psychological security!"
"No matter how exciting the story is, the core remains the same. Over time, it becomes too homogenized. Many books look like chewed gum, tasteless!"
Yu Hui looked a little embarrassed. "My idol, you're so insightful! Before writing these books, I also consulted and borrowed a lot of information!"
"That's a perfectly normal expression. After all, the so-called inheritance of national culture is nothing more than understanding, applying what you've learned, innovating, and carrying it forward!"
The idol speaks so nicely, and after he said that, plagiarism immediately became more noble!
"The above is an analysis based on the essential factors of inspirational books. The following is an analysis based on changes in the social environment!"
The admiration in Yu Hui's eyes grew stronger, and she looked more and more like a qualified little fan girl. Chen An was very satisfied with this!
"Since the reform and opening up, state-owned enterprises have begun to restructure, and private enterprises have become responsible for their own profits and losses. While the domestic social economy has developed rapidly, people's living pressures have also become increasingly heavy!"
"Mortgages, car loans, elderly people, children, countless pressures on shoulders, people are more pragmatic and focus on practical skills and methods!"
"A reader is like a person who does high-intensity physical labor every day. The stories in inspirational books are like a bowl of chicken soup, which can temporarily relieve fatigue and replenish energy!
But the next day, they still have to do the same high-intensity labor. Over time, these things become useless. Apart from students in ivory towers, who have never seen the cruelty of society, how many people would pay for useless things?
"Instead of wasting money on these things, why not watch a movie or immerse yourself in the world of a novel and temporarily forget the worries of reality? It's both spending money, but one only temporarily relieves anxiety, while the other can bring you short-term happiness. The choice is simple!"
"Additionally, with the development of communications, people's means of obtaining information have become more diverse. The information you can find is also available to others. Where does the market for self-help books come from?"
Hearing such a thorough analysis for the first time dampened Yu Hui’s desire to start a business!
After a while, Chen An finally spoke with concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling shocked?"
Yu Hui quickly forced a smile and shook her head. "A little bit, but more of it is admiration for my idol's vision. His words were like a revelation. A lot of things I didn't understand before, now I finally have answers!"
Yu Hui’s reaction was within Chen An’s expectations!
Women like her are quite common in reality. They like to engage in self-hypnosis and attribute all their success to their own abilities, completely ignoring the benefits brought by their appearance!
A life that is too smooth can easily lead to mysterious self-confidence. Even if you know that things are difficult, you will still think that it is just a small bump in your life. As long as you work hard, you can get through it and become a more perfect self!
When you really fall, you still won’t admit that you lack the ability, you are just unlucky and careless, but you will subconsciously start to use your external appearance to strive for the so-called success!
This is what Yu Hui did in the original drama. After her business failed, she met the producer Lin Sen by chance. She took advantage of the fact that Lin Sen had feelings for her and jumped from a writer of unsold books to a screenwriter, and her own works were presented on the screen!
If it weren't for Lin Sen's limited abilities, which made him unworthy of being the man behind a successful woman, with Yu Hui's personality, there's still a chance of success!
Based on the principle of fairness and justice, she obediently held onto the wall and the sofa, and he could also support her well. Isn't it just a dream of success? For Chen An, these are just things that can be woven at will!
Yu Hui did not waste any time during the meal and asked many of her pressing questions!
For Chen An, these things are just child's play. He explains them in great detail, to the extent that anyone with a normal IQ can understand them!
After dinner, Chen An sent Yu Hui back to the book fair. He kept his eyes closed and had a cold face throughout the whole process, and did not communicate with her at all!
Yu Hui was a little confused at first, but she soon figured out the answer in her mind!
My idol should be a wealthy heir, just like the overbearing CEO in TV dramas. His cold appearance is partly due to long-term loneliness, and partly due to his status, so he has no choice but to do so!
In fact, she is kind, soft and delicate at heart!
This characteristic aroused Yu Hui's strong curiosity and desire to explore. She wanted to learn more about the experience of her idol. If she could get into his heart, perhaps she could create a different spark!
When they arrived at the parking lot of the book fair, Yu Hui got out of the car and said goodbye to Chen An. He just nodded faintly in response!
Watching the luxury car go by, the ambition in my heart grows like wild grass!
Seeing Yu Hui coming back, Xiang Zhen snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction!
Seeing this, Yu Hui couldn't help laughing in her heart, but she was even more curious about what happened between her and Chen An. After all, a man who was a domineering CEO would not bully a little girl casually unless he was interested!
"Yo, you're angry!"
Xiang Zhen was of course very angry and despised Yu Hui's behavior, but with Chen An, a violent and mentally ill person, around, she had to prioritize saving her life!
That guy let me go this time, but what if I meet him again next time? After all, this evil fate is quite strange. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you take precautions. If his identity is too terrifying, I will be able to bend and stretch. If I meet him again, I will lower my head and hide away!
"Yu Hui, is there anyone as good as you as a sister? That psychopath, that bastard, bullied me so much, and not only did you not help me scold him, but you also licked him in return. You, you, really disappoint me!!"
"That's my idol. If your idol appeared in front of you, wouldn't you be extremely excited?!"
"Humph! What is that psychopath doing that deserves the admiration of a talented lady like you?"
Yu Hui boasted about Chen An's achievements!
"That's it!!" Xiang Zhen felt ashamed and angry when he thought about how he was trying to hide just now, but he was seen lowering his head. "You bastard, you're so arrogant just because you have a little money. If you dare to bully me again, I'll let the police teach him a lesson!"
Yu Hui coughed lightly and reminded, "What I just said is actually just the idol's hobby. His true identity is terrifying!!"
Hearing this, Xiang Zhen immediately wilted and asked timidly, "Yes, how scary is it?"
Yu Hui took out a business card made of a special material and shook it. "From what I know so far, the idol's net worth is worth billions. For those who don't know, it's even more unfathomable!"
Seeing Yu Hui getting the business card and looking very proud, Xiang Zhen was very unhappy. After all, all this was built on his own pain!
"Yu Hui, be careful. That guy is a psychopath and a violent lunatic. If he has feelings for you, don't let him fool you. Otherwise, when you suffer in the future, don't blame me for not warning you!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Hui quickly defended herself, "Xiang Zhen, please don't try to match me up with someone else. I know myself well. A country girl with a little bit of good looks wouldn't be in the eyes of an idol!"
"If I wasn't his fan and we didn't happen to meet, his idol wouldn't even glance at me!"
Xiang Zhen was somewhat speechless. What kind of charm did that bastard have? Qian Beibei was like that, and Yu Hui was no different. It was simply outrageous!
"Yu Hui, don't underestimate yourself. Your excellence is obvious to everyone!"
Yu Hui raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and it was obvious that she was saying one thing and thinking another. She was very satisfied with Xiang Zhen's praise!
She actually felt that Chen An treated her differently from other people, and might have some feelings for her!
The reason why he didn't admit it was that he was afraid that if he boasted, Xiang Zhen would get angry and even laugh at him behind his back!
The most important reason is that she doesn't want others to know the secret that Chen An is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, so naturally she has to hide it a little!
"By the way, Xiang Zhen, what's the misunderstanding between you and your idol?"
Xiang really didn't know how to start the conversation, so he asked Yu Hui to help him hide his embarrassment. Now is his chance!
"Don't mention it. This is all Ding Lan and Qian Beibei's fault, and in the end I'm the one who got hurt!"
"Do they also know the idol?" Yu Hui thought of Ding Lan's reaction and realized something was wrong!
"The thing is..."
"Yu Hui, Xiang Zhen, I brought you coffee specially. Thank you for your hard work!"
Yu Fan’s arrival will interrupt Xiang Zhen!
Yu Hui was inevitably a little unhappy because her curiosity was interrupted. She dealt with Yu Fan casually and made an excuse to go busy herself!
Xiang Zhen, on the other hand, is still thinking about writing a book and is quite enthusiastic!
Yu Fan cursed Yu Hui in his heart and secretly prepared to find an opportunity to take advantage of her!
