The Iron-Fisted Literary Giant of 1977

I couldn't accept the author's viewpoint from the very beginning; they actually believed that if you graduated from a top-tier university in your past life, you shouldn't go to college in this life. Speechless... Going to university isn't just about getting a degree; a good university is a platform, a network, and a power base. If you're not doing well, you might not feel it as deeply.

The shoe is too big, the foot too small: the author's vision is too grand, but their writing skills don't match it; the supporting characters praise the protagonist too much, but the protagonist's writing and arguments (not referring to the theme, but the level of explanation) don't match it.

The true prophetic mindset of a time traveler involves two aspects: demystifying famous women of the era and demystifying high scores in college entrance exams. Since they're already prophets, why would they need to go to university to gain societal envy and resentment? Why would they need the approval of the lower-dimensional, old world?

Writing plagiarized works where the protagonist is honest and straightforward, seeing themselves as a mere copyist, solely for fame and fortune, copying whatever's popular. I don't want those who, despite being just a copyist, act like the real author, indulging in self-pity, adding their own dramatic flair, and constantly putting on airs.

Literary masters and historical fiction have become quite popular in recent years, with many authors, including some I'm familiar with. However, after careful selection, I've only managed to read two books so far. Many authors write about historical figures and literary masters in a very disorganized way.

The protagonist is a real smoker, he's always smoking. But does smoking really help develop the character? Is the protagonist under too much pressure and needs to relieve it, or what? Isn't this just filler? And what about the fighting scenes? Do they even contribute to a literary masterpiece? If you're writing a literary masterpiece, don't add unnecessary filler.

The most interesting part of this book is probably the chapters that criticize Jin Yong.

The latest plot of a powerful figure taking on an apprentice is really cliché, the foreshadowing of a childhood friend becoming a future powerful figure is also cliché, and then there's that young woman surnamed Ye... This makes me wonder if the author truly possesses revolutionary spirit and a fighting spirit? Is this yet another unrealistic work where the world revolves around the protagonist?

So far, all the bravado the author has shown has been posed by the protagonist himself. You should thank other writers, critics, and ordinary people for their reactions after reading the protagonist's book. This way, the perspective isn't always focused on the protagonist, and there will always be people who agree with the protagonist's views. When it comes to online arguments, once you start one, the system will naturally match you with teammates and opponents.

I read the beginning, and the author's intention is good, and it has some merit. However, the worst thing for online novels is to go against the readers' wishes. At the beginning, everyone thought the protagonist should go to university to get a degree for a better future. Even if the author didn't want the protagonist to go to university, they should have explained it in detail.
