In this way, I should have grown from a small shrimp in the world to an important chess piece, no longer an insignificant role.

Now comes the third question, what is an [important role].

What is certain is that this [important character] is by no means the strongest person.

Otherwise, Jianghu Baixiaosheng should have contacted Wuxiazi, Longwang, Jiang Tianxiong, or even Eunuch Chen and Tianwang.

It is also certain that this [important character] is not the most powerful person, so the most powerful people, the emperor and King Cheng, can actually only exist as background panels.

So, how to define "important role"? Shouldn't each role be determined when writing the "script"?

Huang Xiaoshi suddenly realized a very important thing, which even he had judged wrong.

This thing is: why is Dongfang Weiming the protagonist.

This was originally a question that did not require thinking. Dongfang Weiming is not the protagonist, but who is the protagonist?

However, Huang Xiaoshi now knows that the positioning of the character will change. In this way, the protagonist is not decided at the beginning.

Then, why is Dongfang Weiming the protagonist?

This brings us to another prerequisite question: what is a role?

Huang Xiaoshi suddenly thought of the summary of characters given by the teacher in the literature class when he was in college.

"In any story, characters are the tools that drive the development and change of the story."

That’s right, “Tools that drive story development and change.”

If you put it this way, it is relatively simple and clear.

[Script] is a stage, not a story.

[Story] is generated in real time on the stage of [Script], relying on the interactions between countless [Characters].

Jiang Hu Bai Xiaosheng can only control the direction of the [script], but he does not, cannot, and should not even control the performance of the [character] and stipulate what direction the [story] must go.

Yes, the audience doesn't care or pick about the ending of the story, they just want to see a wonderful story.

“[Audiences] just want to see great stories.”

Huang Xiaoshi's ideas suddenly became clear, and he felt that he had cracked the [worldview] of this world.

Don't think about what kind of world this is, but think of this world as a big stage.

There is a carefully designed [script] on the stage, as well as an extremely large number of characters, and countless chaotic events.

Through these chaotic events, the characters performed wonderful stage plays one after another through the guidance of the [script].

What the [audience] is most looking forward to is that these stage plays are generated in real time, so no one knows what the final ending will be.

However, as the stage play continues to be performed repeatedly, the originally random endings will inevitably be repeated. When the repeated endings appear again and again, [the audience] becomes dissatisfied.

“[Audiences] just want to see great stories.”

However, the cost of writing a new script or changing the script is too high. At this time, someone thought of a way, which is to add some uncertain variables.

This uncertain variable is yourself, the [player].

Through the uncertainty of the [player], new changes occur in the original elements and a new story is generated.

As for how the [player] lives after entering this world, whether he will suffer physical and psychological trauma, or even death, the audience does not care.

“[Audiences] just want to see great stories.”

After understanding this, Huang Xiaoshi can also understand why there is [Heavenly Way].

[Audience] actually doesn't care whether the world is destroyed. If there is a wonderful way to destroy it, [Audience] will definitely like to hear about it.

However, if someone wants to destroy the world in the simplest, crudest, and most boring way, that is destroying the [audience] experience, so Jianghu Baixiaosheng will erase such people as soon as possible.

“[Audiences] just want to see great stories.”

This is extremely important information. After thinking about this, Huang Xiaoshi immediately realized that Bai Xiaosheng, who was once thought to be omnipotent, only assumed the functions of [managers]. Their functions and powers,

In fact, it is given by [the audience].

In other words, everything they do must not violate the core requirement of [the audience], which is a wonderful story.

In this way, although Dongfang Weiming is involved in a lot of plots, [the audience] is tired of watching him. Huang Xiaoshi, a jerk who jumps left and right, is actually the character that the [audience] enjoys the most.

.

Thinking of this, Huang Xiaoshi recalled that, by the way, Fang Yunhua had told himself that Jianghu Baixiaosheng had announced to him the news that the "Book of Swordsmanship" was about to appear.

This also shows that although Fang Yunhua did not participate in stirring up trouble, [the audience] has high expectations for him. After all, Fang Yunhua's extreme operation of opening up the harem is also extremely amazing.

Because of the expectations of the [audience], Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng hopes that he can continue his efforts, create greater glories, and show off his special talents in the next [plot].

It's a pity that Fang Yunhua's mood changed drastically after having a baby. Now he is like a middle-aged man in his forties who just wants to live a stable life.

This kind of character is destined to be abandoned by [the audience].

Therefore, Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng did not go to Fang Yunhua this time, but found himself.

Now that everything has been figured out, Huang Xiaoshi's heart is full of joy, which really feels like a profound enlightenment and enlightenment.

Last question:

As the [main character], the spotlight on the stage has already shone on me. Can I get any benefits?

There are definitely benefits, and they are huge.

First of all, you can get important news as soon as possible, which is a huge time difference benefit.

The second is that you can get a lot of gossip that others don’t know.

In the original story, the Xu brothers would come over and inform Weiming every time something happened. If it weren't for them, Weiming would have missed many extremely important plot points.

In addition to this kind of explicit tip-off, the Xu brothers would also reveal various information intentionally or unintentionally.

Some, Weiming understood, some, Weiming didn't care, and some, Weiming didn't understand what was going on at all.

Because every life experience of Weiming is different, this means that he can only understand part of the message. However, the part of the message that he can understand will also be of great help to Weiming.

Third, this is also the reason why Huang Xiaoshi is suddenly so interested in it now.

As the [protagonist], as long as the performance is exciting enough and makes the [audience] happy, as a corresponding report, the Xu brothers may meet your requirements that do not exceed their scope of authority.

Huang Xiaoshi really wanted to ask them for something, and this was also his biggest concern at the moment.
