Overturned Tower - ~ shell and core
On October 31, Core and Shell ended.
This is by far the volume with the largest number of words, and the volume with the largest amount of information. It is also the penultimate mainline volume of the tower.
I still want to thank Jin Meng for the reward from Zeze. This is the first time a cat has reached the top in sales…
Moreover, the appeal of the previous volume seems to have worked! The follow-up reading of this volume has a very obvious rebound, the cat is moved!
The grades have improved, and the body has recovered, double happiness and double happiness!
Without further ado, the next step is the inspiration sharing link of this volume!
The title and theme of the volume “Core and Shell” come from Gibran’s essay “Shell and Core”.
Strong Amway everyone to go and see!
In this volume, Mao tried to use the creative technique of pointing questions many times, and among the many techniques Taxin tried, it feels that it fits well! This time it was written very smoothly, and the new book feels like it can be used directly!
Core and shell, as the name suggests, are the contrast of “outside and inside”.
At the beginning, I used the contrasting character of combing teeth as a MacGuffin, and quickly made this character. And with him as the center to reveal the theme of “core and shell”, the first theme anchoring was carried out.
The three reversals of the sheath are also a process of repeating the questions. The diametrically opposed nature of the inner and outer sheaths is another point of question. The “sheath” itself is the vanity shell of the “blade”, and his name itself is a hint.
The reversal of the veil of ignorance is another introduction—in a sense, the Help Society and the veil of ignorance are completely opposite organizations. Bingshui’s speech also revealed this falsehood, which is more in line with the theme of Gibran’s essay: that is, people don’t know what they want, and they can’t be sure that what they see is true.
And the third side of this theme is “Grey Dome” and “Black Tower”. The gray dome covering the outside of the planet is the “shell”; and the **** buried in the sea of group subconscious is the “core”.
The fourth side is Russell’s plan, the exchange between the “barber” and “Little Liuli”.
Through the perspective of the ordinary UP owner “Mark”, Russell’s public relations methods are displayed, and the second-level theme “the shell is the core” is finalized for the first time.
And the fifth side of this theme, which is also the second repetition of the second-level theme, is Russell’s twilight essence.
“Russell” itself, as well as the spiritual energy of the container of God, are actually “shells”. The real essence is the twilight egg sealed in the container—the newborn twilight species named “Tombstone”. As it expands, the shell will eventually be unable to hide the essence of the core and the fact that it is only a shell.
And through the secondary theme of “the shell is the core”, Russell himself denied this fate.
He may just be the shell that hatched the dusk, but who said that the core must be more important than the shell?
The shell is not a tool for incubating the nucleus, and the false things known to people are not meaningless; or in other words, the truth deep in the heart may not necessarily be more valuable than the “mask” exposed outside.
What finally allowed Russell to anchor his own value was the “love” for the shell.
Even if it is a false shell, it is still loved by others.
In terms of narrative structure, Russell’s anxiety about his twilight essence is actually equivalent to people’s anxiety about the imminent exposure of their inner essence when they get along with their close ones.
This is without a doubt a story of hope and love.
In this volume, when the story line is very clear, the repeated confirmation of the theme is vague. This is a volume that I feel is in pretty good shape… because it means that my creative purpose—that is, “private goods” itself, has not excessively worn down the fluency of the story. And it endows the story with structural beauty, which can be regarded as the cat’s obsessive-compulsive disorder. A strictly speaking literary pursuit that doesn’t really make much sense…
In writing this volume only using this new technique, which I had not tried before, I think I have done what I can call “good.” You can probably give yourself a ninety-ten mark.
Don’t mess with it! Next is the preview of the next volume!
The next volume is based on “Yongquan Island” and “Chongguang Island” as the main stage, with the appearance of the inferior and the strangulation!
October 31st will be a day off as usual, and November 1st will be updated when the evening is close to midnight!
But speaking of it, Cat No. 31 has already updated 5,000 words (sad)
For some reason, there is a sense of emptiness that my vacation has been adjusted by myself…
