Love is the eternal theme of novels, and there is an element of love in many novels.
In addition to pure love novels, even in some other types of novels, such as martial arts novels, detective novels, and vernacular novels, some love scenes will be added, it seems that without love, human beings lack a certain taste, and the story will not be so wonderful.
First, the love mode of the novel
In love mode, the protagonist can be one person or two people.
In a traditional love story with only one protagonist, the protagonist's goal is to gain the other person's heart. The protagonist may have a crush he wants to pursue. But his subject is not interested in him at first, or the protagonist may face many love enemies, which may be the main obstacles the protagonist faces. Only by removing these obstacles can the protagonist win the heart of the other party.
If the protagonists are two people, you need to create parallel plot lines. The reader may see the man and the woman separately, and then have them meet at some point in time, in a certain place, and have some conflict, or love at first sight.
The ultimate goal of both parties who love each other is to overcome all difficulties and stay together for a lifetime. If they want to be together, the obstacles they face may come from various aspects, including the families of both parties, external interference, etc.
At the end of the love story, people may feel happy, two people have experienced various tribulations, and finally come together happily; it may also make people feel sad, one of them has passed away, and the other person has fallen into deep pain; it may also be a tragedy, both of whom have died in the end, just like Romeo and Juliet, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, and finally become the tragedy of love.
Second, the basic elements of the love model
The basic elements of the love model include:
One is that two people must be in love with each other, maybe they didn't love each other at first, but after constant conflict, constantly running in, constantly colliding, and having a long-term relationship, they finally came together.
Second, in the process of love, two people will not be smooth sailing, will encounter some setbacks and difficulties, and there will be some people or certain things that want to take them apart. These storms and challenges are a test for them, but also make them cherish the opportunity and time with each other even more.
Third, if they want to be together, they must overcome all difficulties, overcome many difficulties, make a lot of sacrifices, and even pay everything for each other.
Fourth, the end of the story may be a comedy or a tragedy. The good news is that they finally came together, and the sad thing is that maybe they will be tragically separated forever.
Fifth, after many tribulations, whether they eventually come together or not, one or both of them will grow.
Third, the structure of the love model
In love stories, the most common patterns are: the boy meets the girl, the boy loses the girl, and the boy gets the girl.
The type of love story will have a different structure.
1. The structure of the first romance novel is as follows:
In the first act, the two sides meet for the first time, and one of them falls in love with the other party at first sight and falls in love with the other at once.
In the second act, he tries everything he can, makes a lot of efforts, and wants to win the hearts of the other party.
In the third act, the other party is finally touched by him and accepts him, and the two people come together happily.
This is one of the most common structures.
2. The structure of the second type of romance novel is as follows:
In the first act, the two people admire and like each other the first time they meet, and want to be together right away.
In the second act, the two people encounter external resistance, including family, social, and other competitors, but in the face of these foreign resistance, the two people still want to do everything they can, make a lot of efforts, and want to be together.
In the third act, the two people overcome many difficulties and finally come together.
3. The third type of romance novel takes a different approach.
In the first scene, the two destined people, the first time they met, they did not fall in love with each other, but hated each other, and the two clashed as soon as they met.
In the second act, the two people always meet unexpectedly, making the conflict more and more, and the contradiction is getting deeper and deeper. As the story progresses, they go through many common challenges and gradually become attracted to each other. The two men decided to come together, but they encountered something again and took them apart.
In the third act, in the end, they still got out of the predicament and walked together.
4. The fourth novel structure is to treat the love mode as a side plot.
In the first act, the two people meet for the first time and hate each other, but because of something that makes them both reach an agreement, the two people have a reason to stay together.
In the second act, after experiencing and dealing with some things together, the two gradually develop a good feeling between them and fall in love with each other. But suddenly, the two have a major misunderstanding, which makes the lovers turn against each other near the end and face the brink of breaking up.
In the third act, at the time of a thousand gunshots, they finally freeze the previous suspicions, solve the misunderstanding, and the two are rebuilt and finally come together.
Love stories, whether they end in comedy or tragedy, will leave a deep impression.
If the ending is a comedy, it will make the reader feel hope that everyone can find their true love in the real world.
If the ending is tragic, it will also make the reader feel that a vigorous love is always more valuable than a plain life.
No matter what type of romance novel, it always conveys truth, goodness and beauty to people, attacks false ugliness, and always transmits a positive energy to people. Even for those who fail, we can learn from it and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
