Wang Hao slept until 3pm, when rapid knocking on the door woke him up.
“Who’s that…” Wang Hao opened the door and saw four porters, and was confused. “What’s going on?”
No wonder he had such a reaction.
These four porters had carried six boxes of different sizes to the door. When Wang Hao opened the door, they moved the boxes directly into the house and said, “Mr. Wang? Your friend ordered a computer for you. Where should we put it?”
“Computer?” Wang Hao immediately realized — “Is it from that woman?”
This is something I should accept. In any case, I saved her life, right?
So, Wang Hao led the four porters to the bedroom. They put the boxes on the floor and started assembling the computer desk while introducing it to Wang Hao —
“This is our latest product, a handmade business computer desk for the CEO’s office.”
Wang Hao was startled. “S- so, how much is one?” It had to be pretty expensive! Maybe a few thousand yuan?
One of the porters replied, “69,000 yuan.”
Wang Hao was speechless. I f*cking left out a zero!
Once the porters were done with the computer desk, they brought the computer inside. “This computer is currently the best one on the market. It’s built with the latest and most high-end components. The CPU has water cooling technology, and it is the quietest of all computers. The 36-inch curved display is the latest product in the market, and the keyboard is also the latest mechanical keyboard.”
Wang Hao was speechless.
I have to give it another guess. This computer clearly looks expensive. Let me guess a higher price!
“This computer should be worth at least 20,000 yuan, right?” Wang Hao asked softly.
Then, Wang Hao was again surprised by what the porter said. “The cooling water CPU costs 20,000 yuan; everything altogether costs around 80,000 yuan.”
Wang Hao was speechless.
F*ck! Isn’t this insane? My old computer, including the CPU, display monitor, mouse and keyboard, only cost 3000 yuan! It feels like I’m switching from a shotgun to a cannon! No, no, no, I should say from a slingshot to a nuclear bomb! What the hell!
The porters quickly finished with the installation of the desk, computer and CPU, then smiled. “Okay, all done. Have a try, sir.”
Mind blank, Wang Hao pressed the power button.
Five seconds later…
A 365 Security Guard reminder popped up. “Congratulations! Your computer beat 99.99% of users in the country. We hereby grant you the title of ‘Seven Star Supercomputer’!”
Wang Hao was thrilled! Wang Hao was happy! He had never used such a powerful computer in his life!
He sat on the hand-carved rosewood chair and looked at the huge display. Could it be any more incredible?
As a computer fanatic, what else could attract him more than a supercomputer?
After the four porters left, Wang Hao immediately took out his phone and planned to send the woman a message. Once he opened WeChat, he saw the message which she had sent to him earlier. “Do you have more of the novels you wrote?”
She read “Battle Through the Heavens”?
Wang Hao wanted to thank her for the computer, but he stopped — he had nothing more for “Battle Through the Heavens”! There was only one chapter!
Forget it. I’ll see if Sunflower has finished the next few chapters!
Wang Hao opened QQ and logged in. The car accident today might have used up most of his misfortune — he received Sunflower’s message the second he went online!
Sunflower: “Sunday, I was really productive today! I wrote 15,000 words! It went very smoothly. Quick, have a look!”
F*ck! He wrote 15,000 words in a day! Can it be any more awesome?
Sunday Wang: “Alright, take it easy. Let me see!”
Wang Hao couldn’t wait any longer. He opened the document and started reading immediately.
Wang Hao had to admit, Sunflower’s writing was definitely amazing. He was even certain that Sunflower was better than many other authors before the Fortune Dice changed the world. However, after reading those 15,000 words, he felt like something was missing.
Sunday Wang: “The plot and development are fine, but I just feel like there’s something missing.”
Sunflower: “Huh? Really? What should we do, Sunday?”
Sunday Wang: “Don’t worry. I’ll look at it again.”
Sunflower: “Okay, Sunday. Please tell me what’s wrong with it!”
Wang Hao read the entire text again carefully, and he found the problem.
Sunday Wang: “There’s not enough foreshadowing when Nalan Yanran appears! Where’s the hatred? Without the hatred, how can you pave the way for what’s to come later in the story? You have to show the consequences of breaking off the engagement!”
Sunflower: “Huh? I added a hint!”
Sunday Wang: “I know you did, but it’s not enough! Look, who’s the protagonist? He used to be a genius, but is now a loser, right? A genius breaking off an engagement with a loser, is it a problem?”
Sunflower: “No… I guess…”
Sunday Wang: “Of course not! Think about it; say you’re a shut-in and you come from an ordinary family, but your fiancée is from a family with millions of assets and she’s as beautiful as a starlet. Will it be a problem if she breaks off the engagement? No, right? So, the most important thing here is to let the readers feel pity for the protagonist! Only then will the readers be excited when the protagonist gets his revenge!”
Sunflower: “I’m in awe, Sunday! You’re right! So, how should I put it?”
Sunday Wang: “You have to include the details of why Nalan Yanran is breaking off the engagement, and how it affects the protagonist and his father. Why is she doing it? It’s because she was personally trained by Zhongmen, and she’s starting to look down on the protagonist. Not only that, see, what occasion is it? It’s a clan meeting! Something embarrassing like this happening in front of the whole clan — how would his father feel, as the patriarch? Right? And one more thing, who came with Nalan Yanran? A tall, rich and handsome man! This is totally an outrage! Compare him with the protagonist! You have to bring out the image of this tall, rich and handsome man! Look, you haven’t given this man any sense of presence! Then, how can he arouse the protagonist’s hatred?”
