Jin Yong is a master of writing love, in fact, integrating into true feelings is the first method of novel writing

When reading novels, readers are often unconsciously attracted by the plot, immersed in the novel, and have moods fluctuating with the experiences of the characters. The characters laugh, we laugh; the characters cry, we cry. Why? Our feelings are taken away by the novel. Many novels can tightly attract the feelings of readers. Jin Yong's novels have this characteristic. When reading Jin Yong's novel, the reader's emotions are invisibly led by the plot and their hearts fluctuate. Why?

01 Jin Yong is a master of love writing

By the time of the chapter of "Cliff Top Doubt", the story of "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter" has not yet entered the real central area, Guo Jing and Huang Rong have not yet met, and the central plot is still in the stage of waiting to happen. Even so, you can already feel the strong true feelings written by Jin Yong.

Taking this chapter as an example, when Jin Yong writes about Mei Chaofeng, the demon head, he shows her love feelings as a lonely and blind old woman. She has been in loneliness since her lover Chen Xuanfeng was accidentally stabbed by Guo Jing after she died. She often missed Chen Xuanfeng. How did Jin Yong describe her?

After he let Mei Chaofeng practice martial arts at the top of the cliff for a while, he began to miss his lover. The book reads: "There was silence, but she sighed quietly and whispered, 'Thief man, you are in the underworld, but do you also think of me every day?' ’”

This simple sentence has clearly described Mei Chaofeng's deep affection for Chen Xuanfeng. First of all, Mei Chaofeng deeply missed Chen Xuanfeng, and the phrase "thief man" fully showed this mood. In addition, she also read whether Chen Xuanfeng still thought of her every day in the Yin World. This means that Mei Chaofeng is reading Chen Xuanfeng every day.

Readers will realize here that although Mei Chaofeng's viciousness is terrible, he is also relatively strong in love and more affectionate. But unfortunately, they have been separated by yin and yang, and because they have entered the evil path, their love must not have a good result. On the one hand, there is a good yearning, and on the other hand, there are bad results. The inescapable contradiction in the middle makes the reader inevitably feel a pang of lamentation and even misery in his heart when he reads this.

In this chapter, Jin Yong not only describes love, but also describes friendship. When Zamuma broke off his friendship with Temujin, he returned to Temujin what he had treasured from his friendship with Temujin. Temujin also took out his own things and buried two things in the soil. Temujin's movements are very slow, but even Guo Jing can see that "what Temujin is buried is really the most precious friendship in his heart."

In addition, Li Ping's performance after Guo Jing was awarded the title of Golden Sword horse made people feel that there was a promise between friends. At this time, even if Li Ping did not care about the previous fingers and abdomen for marriage, no one would blame her, after all, the situation has changed a lot. However, she still insisted on her husband's commitment to her brother, and this time it was simply a matter of suffering to see the truth.

Not only love and friendship are depicted, but also political pride based on righteousness. After Guo Jing learned of Yan Honglie's plot to kill Temujin, he quickly reported it to the masters. Later, he rode a little red horse to chase temujin. Temujin, with the help of Guo Jing, finally got out of danger. This reflects the pride and righteousness of political struggle. Undoubtedly, Guo Jing's act of saving Temujin in an emergency regardless of his personal safety will touch countless readers.

Reading Jin Yong's novels, you will feel that everywhere is love, and readers will have a feeling of being surrounded by true feelings all the time when reading novels. All conflicts arise out of emotion, and at the same time more emotions are aroused, which will lead to corresponding emotional interactions. Readers are invisibly moved and attracted. So, is it necessary to write a novel? This involves why you should write the truth.

02 Why write the truth

People are emotional animals, and only emotions can really touch their hearts. Emotions bring inner recognition and acceptance. Only when the feelings are excited can the reader truly fall in love with the novel he is reading, will he insist on reading it, and will he be able to recommend it to others.

What if there is a hypothetical assumption that there is a lack of truth between the characters written in the novel, or that there is some truth but not fullness? When the reader reads the novel, he is left with a bunch of superficial character interactions, interactive techniques between them, and so on. Such a novel undoubtedly seems dry and not good at all.

The key factor that makes a novel look good or has a look is full of emotions, then. This is so because fiction is actually a work of depicting actions and feelings. First, behavior inspires feelings. Guo Xiaotian's behavior of being tortured and killed by Duan Tiande and others aroused Guo Jing's strong hatred for revenge for killing his father. Second, emotions inspire behavior. It was precisely because of his strong feelings of revenge and hatred that Guo Jing, although stupid, also had to practice martial arts desperately before returning to the Central Plains. Other behaviors and feelings, all of which are intrinsically interactive, are all similar.

It can be said that behavior and feelings are actually two sides of the same coin and inseparable. Emotionless behavior is soulless. And the lack of behavioral support of feelings is also empty. So, there is no pure emotionlessness, and there is no pure emotion without behavior. What's more, feelings and thoughts are also intrinsically linked. What kind of thought there is, there will be corresponding feelings, and the two are intrinsically one. In essence, feelings, thoughts, and behaviors are communities, three factors that are inseparable from human beings, and thus become the three basic directions of novel writing. The integration of the three is the basic requirement of novel creation.

Fiction writing that meets the requirements of these three basic directions is good. Jin Yong profoundly embodies the direction of the integration of these three directions, so many novels have become classics, and he himself has become a generation of masters in the field of martial arts novels. Focusing on the vision of feelings, reading his novels, you will feel that there are various deep emotions flowing between the lines.

Many of the emotions described in the novel profoundly move the reader. The moved reader does not want to leave the scene depicted in the novel. They want to follow the protagonist and experience the joys and sorrows with the many characters in the novel. Therefore, everyone will feel that Jin Yong's novel is an emotional novel, and Jin Yong himself is also a well-deserved love writing master.

In Jin Yong's novels, the description of feelings is not a simple, fragmentary, and shallow description, but a description of profound true feelings. The basic orientation of emotional description in novel writing is to describe true feelings. Whether you can write affection, or whether you can write true feelings well, is the basic indicator of whether the writer of the novel is mature or to what extent.

03 What is true love

As the name suggests, true feelings are first and foremost true feelings. The so-called true feelings, it is the feelings that really happened. This is not to be falsified. Because feelings can be thick or light, thick or thin, but it must really happen. If the characters in the novel do not have certain feelings, but pretend that certain feelings have occurred, it is impossible to move others, and the feelings that are pretended will not last long.

Second, true feelings must be sincere feelings. One person's will towards another person is from the heart, not coerced by anyone, not induced by interests, purely from the heart. For example, a woman who loves a man, does not love his money, and does not mix with any other non-emotional factors, such feelings are more sincere.

Sincerity should reflect true and serious feelings for others. For example, Li Ping insisted on fulfilling the marriage contract with the Yang family, which is actually a kind of true feeling, true to herself, and true to others.

Again, true affection often means that it is a strong long-term affection. If you love you today and live to death, tomorrow will leave you behind, even if such a feeling occurs, it is completely real and sincere, but can it be regarded as true love? Of course not. Because it is too short to wither before it blooms. What kind of truth is this?

The so-called true feelings must be sustainable, which is also the true sincerity. Therefore, true feelings will definitely be reflected in long-term feelings. Long-term feelings are sustainable, long-lasting, and can even be a lifetime of emotions. In this way, it can penetrate the various baptisms of time and make people reflect a high degree of fidelity. Only such feelings are true feelings, otherwise this truth is not really true, and it is not enough to impress the reader's heart.

Repeatedly, true feelings are often tortuous emotions. Twists and turns will be tested, and only then will the authenticity of feelings be identified. If you shrink back when you encounter a little difficulty, you will dissipate, and such feelings are only ordinary emotions, and they cannot be called true feelings. Truth often means to get rid of falsehood or impurities, which is itself a tortuous process of truth. Only twists and turns can be truly tested, and the true content of true feelings can be displayed.

In this process, it is necessary to reflect a lot of external confrontation, that is, external factors will be highlighted, weakening the true feelings and even eliminating it. Whether it can be weakened or even destroyed will test the solidity of the truth. Whether it is love or friendship, etc., it is necessary to go through such a process of being tested and screened. In many classic novels, this process of countering external weakening factors is undoubtedly the most attractive and oppressive.

From the above, it can be concluded that the essence of true feelings is to insist on being good to others, no matter when and where the other party is. Those feelings that turn with profit, those feelings that are quickly destroyed and obliterated by the years, are false feelings or thin feelings. True feelings also have the following characteristics.

First, deep dedication. True feelings mean giving, and often need to pay a lot, need to pay for each other in depth. The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan have traveled thousands of miles to the desert in order to find Guo Jing's mother and son and save the heroes' descendants. Seven of their brothers, who had spent the best of their youth, lived in the bitter cold for a long time, just to cultivate Guo Jing. This is a very deep effort, and it is also unmoving. This means that showing true feelings requires overcoming relatively large difficulties.

Second, hold fast to your convictions. True feelings mean holding fast to certain beliefs, such as faith in chivalry, belief in true love. These beliefs are hard to hold on to, but they represent the future direction of humanity. It is easier to have faith, and when you are young, you can get a sense of faith through imitation. But it is difficult to hold fast to faith. This requires strong willpower. True feelings must imply one or more beliefs that true people hold. When Li Ping was awarded the title of Golden Sword horse by Guo Jing, she still insisted on fulfilling her finger and belly for marriage to the Yang family, was it not a manifestation of her sense of faith?

Third, long-term persistence. In terms of time belief, true feelings mean long-term persistence. Only in the long-term persistence can we reflect firm faith and true emotional orientation. After sixteen years of long waiting, Yang Guo still has the same deep love for Xiaolongnü as before. True feelings need to be reflected in long-term affection and long-term persistence. Long love is actually very difficult, otherwise there would not be so many novels and TV series to express this emotion to stimulate the tears of readers or viewers. In the process of emotional evolution, long-term persistence actually means loneliness and loneliness, and it is easy to make people move.

Fourth, tough and thick. True affection is affection. The true feelings must be thick, otherwise it is not enough to resist the erosion of the years, and it is even more difficult to adhere to the original intention in the contrast of thousands of prosperity. It must be thick in order to form a self-sufficient weight, and to show sincerity to others in the process of interacting with people. When Guo Jing was six years old, he desperately tried to save Tetsubetsu without knowing what the result would be, and was this friendship not thick? In the face of the threat of Dushi's leopard, he still insisted on pulling out hua zheng, is this friendship not thick? Without thick emotion, it's hard to say it's real.

Thick emotions, such as richness. The so-called true feelings are deep feelings, that is, deep feelings. What is thick? To use the metaphor of thick soup, it is a high content. Strong affection is a lot of emotional material. What is emotional material? It is the emotional factor, the expression of emotion, and so on. In short, all true feelings and affection need to be strong.

04 How to write true feelings

After knowing that you need to write true feelings and knowing what true feelings are, how do you write true feelings in a novel? Not all affection can move people, only the expression of good affection can move people. Therefore, the way of expression is also crucial.

First, the author should be full of affection. As the sole protagonist of the whole novel, the author must be full of affection himself. Just as a singer can sing a good song with emotion, a fiction writer can write a work full of true feelings with emotion.

Authors must be affectionate, and they must be sensitive to behavior and feelings. If it will not hurt the spring and autumn, then how can the love come from? If you are slow about everything, you don't have to write. Therefore, the author should be affectionate, and the characters in the pen should also be affectionate.

The characters in the work, their emotional relationships, and the extent to which their feelings are expressed are all set and completed by the author. This requires the author to be able to use emotion to stimulate enough emotional elements. Only if the author himself contains affection, his brushstrokes will flow out of emotion, the direction of words and sentences can be based on emotion, the emotional fullness will be truly high, and the necessary emotions will flow.

If an author wants to be affectionate, the first thing to do is to take writing seriously. No matter what theme you write, what character you write, you must take it seriously. And this serious attitude of the author will really stimulate the deep feelings hidden in the heart.

Some people think that only when facing the protagonist need to be taken seriously, other supporting characters can be routinely blurred. In fact, this is unscientific. Because if the author ignores the supporting roles, then once this inertia is formed, it will eventually regurgitate the author's attitude towards the protagonist. Any role should be taken seriously, and can be elaborated upon, but not taken lightly.

Second, the author should have his own affectionate model. If the author writes for a long time, it is best to have his own affectionate model, that is, to form an invisible model in the mind that the author can feel exactly. As long as you start writing, you can start this mode in time, you can enter the affectionate state required for writing, and you can write affectionate works at any time. This requires that the author must form the basic state of affectionate writing in his heart.

Second, we must have the Lord and the auxiliary to write. In terms of emotional expression, the main and auxiliary matches are crucial. Just as a subject is needed, a novel needs to have a major emotion, and no matter how good and moving the other feelings are, they must also meet the needs of this main feeling and write within its requirements. The main line of expression is what kind of feelings are expressed in all novels, such as the sadness of love and cannot be loved, such as the struggle for the country, and so on. The main emotion expressed in Qiong Yao's novel is love, supplemented by interpersonal communication and the home and country environment; while the main emotion expressed in Jin Yong's novel is chivalry, which is assisted by love.

After identifying the main emotions, it is then necessary to determine the emotional tone. Sadness or joy, this should also be determined before writing. Because once the emotional tone is determined, all the words must be set and arranged according to it. If the novel is to express chivalrous pride, it must express this tone, both in circumstances and in personal interactions. Even in a confused and tragic environment, the characters' words must reflect the boldness.

After determining the tone of the main feelings, it is also necessary to find the detailed feelings that can most impress people's hearts. If you pursue the entire sea of stars in the martial forest, it will require countless efforts and painstaking efforts from the heroes. These efforts and painstaking efforts should be reflected in the detailed feelings, such as the various life and death tests faced in the process of finding and protecting martial arts secrets.

Third, group expression. If you are sure that you want to express a feeling, then you need to express it in groups. If it is mainly to express love, not only the love between the male and female protagonists should be fully reflected, but also the love of others should be assisted. In "The Legend of the Archery Hero", not only to express the love between Guo Jing and Huang Rong, the author also let Yang Kang Mu Nianci, and even Lu Guanying and Cheng Yaojia, old naughty boy and Yinggu and other people have to come as a green leaf of love to reflect.

Similarly, if patriotic reform feelings are expressed, such as in "The Fission of the Great Qin Empire", not only Qin Xiaogong and Shang Martin have such feelings, but even Jing Jian, Che Ying, and Zi'an and others must have such feelings, they all work together for the rise and fall of the country, showing the righteousness between the big men and the tragedy of the country by example.

Because the subject matter is important, it must be expressed in groups to highlight its importance. Otherwise, the expression will appear too lonely, and it will not achieve the basic purpose of expressing the emotions of the main line.

Fourth, pull away the true feelings. When writing a novel, after determining the main line of emotions, you should just open the computer, you can pull open the true feelings at any time and create a deep atmosphere. Pulling away the true feelings, you can make the words and sentences in the pen have a sense of direction to return to the position, and the reader will be quickly attracted when he sees the words and sentences of the novel.

If you want to open up the true feelings and integrate the true feelings you want to express anytime and anywhere, you need holographic expression, even if it is the factors in the environment, you must express or reflect this true feeling. Only in this way can we express holographically. Similar to the need to open up the emotional posture, there are also emotional entry points, softness of speech, depth of feelings, and so on.

Fifth, there is a parcel to write. Speaking bluntly, sometimes people don't like to listen. Similarly, to write bluntly, the reader may not love to read. What they need is often tortuous and concealed, and the expression and affection of the pipa is half-hidden.

Otherwise, being too blunt is not easy to get the reader's approval. I love you, you love me, and then we're together. What is the point of such a romance novel? In order to realize the truth, there are many obstacles and even resistance forces. This is the expression of complex feelings. For example, a person loves another person, but because it is hindered, it is impossible to express it, and can only hide the deep love in the bottom of the heart and suffer for a long time. This kind of smouldering love is actually the most moving. If it is very straightforward, it will lose its authenticity, and it will lack depth and strength.

Why do I need to wrap up and write? Because fundamentally, in reality, because of the existence of various obstructive forces, every real emotion is not easy to achieve. This kind of objective existence is not easy, and it must be reflected in the various twists and turns in the novel in order to resonate with the reader. At the same time, only feelings that have been hindered are more precious. If the cost of getting it is too small, then the human heart is easy to look down on such feelings.

Not only love, but also the expression of other feelings also needs to be wrapped and written, in short, feelings cannot be easily reached at the destination. Otherwise, the novel would be uninteresting. It cannot reflect the various unsatisfactory emotions from reality, and it certainly cannot resonate with the reader.

The most important means of writing in a wrapped way is to set up enough obstacles to motivate the realization. Without obstacles, there is no story, and there is not enough emotional interaction. This is crucial.

Sixth, seize the interests to write. Interests are the most impressive, and the degree of truth can be seen the most. The greater the benefits, the more emotional trade-offs reflected therein are. For example, in a martial arts novel, a man loves a woman, for her to abandon a lot of things that are very concerned, and finally can even use divine skills and lives to save this woman, then such feelings are undoubtedly more worthy of sighing and investment.

Why did Guo Jing get Huang Rong's admiration? Being willing to spend money for her, and spending money for her without asking for anything in return, is a bit silly on the surface, but in the end it is very impressive. Later, they were born and died together many times, and Guo Jing resolutely did not do anything golden knife and horse in order to love Huang Rong, and such a disregard for the interests of love was very impressive to the reader.

Seventh, write around the issue of feelings. What readers need, what emotional problems they encounter, the author must write around these problems in the novel.

For example, how to redeem oneself after making mistakes, how to spend this life happily, these problems will be encountered by many readers, if the author prompts such a sense of pursuit and value in the novel, then the novel will have a strong sense of substitution for the reader, and the reader's emotions will be tightly held by the author because they can find the corresponding point and resonance. Such emotional descriptions are more touching and more targeted than generally writing about feelings, even if they are affectionate.

Eighth, express the reader's exclamation. Fiction writers must not forget the reader, because the reader is the ultimate recipient of the novel's love. Therefore, we must always pay attention to expressing for the reader, expressing what they want, and writing out the feelings that their inner world wants the most, but the feelings that are most difficult to get.

How can I help readers solve these problems? First of all, it is necessary to reflect the feelings in the reader's heart. What they want and don't get, even if it's virtual gratification, is necessary for them. Readers are often in real society and lack true emotions. It can be said that they are hungry for true feelings, so they especially want to be satisfied in their hearts.

Even if they can't be satisfied in reality, they want to get virtual satisfaction in the novel. This truth, similar to that of people who love to play games, is often able to satisfy their desire for a sense of power and all kinds of vanity in the virtual world. After all, the tension and thirst of the human heart need comfort, nourishment and relief. To alleviate the hunger and tension of the reader's heart, the important role of the novel is achieved.

The emotional problems encountered by the protagonist are encountered by the reader in reality. If you write the protagonist too tall, you will be too far away from ordinary readers, although you can worship them, but you always feel that you are far away from yourself and lack a sense of closeness, and it is difficult to replace them.

In reality, the indifference of interpersonal relationships, the protagonist also has to encounter, but to give a way out, such as living enthusiastically in the cold world, this is very important. For example, in reality, people often have a lot of inner secrets, and it is not appropriate to worry about outsiders, if they can also be expressed in novels, it will be very attractive.

Of course, it is also necessary to express ideals. But if the ideal expressed can be realized, that is, it can gradually go from ordinary people to an ideal state. Because such an ideal is an ideal that can be pursued, readers will be deeply moved when they see such a prospect.

Ninth, progressive expression. True love writing should be progressive, so as to increase the reader's sensitivity. It's like peeling off layers of flowers, peeling them off layer by layer.

Protagonists tend to grow up over time. The feelings embodied in this process are the real affection. For example, in the entire novel of "The Legend of the Archery Hero", Guo Jing has a tortuous growth from yang Kang who can't beat it to the first in the world of Huashan on the sword. Wen seems to look at the mountains and does not like the flat, twists and turns to look good. The protagonist did not hope to get it at first, but later after hard work to get what he wanted, and achieved the goal he wanted to achieve, he will bring deep emotional satisfaction to the reader.

To describe love, there must also be a gradual and in-depth process, so as to conform to reality, but also to bring the reader's emotions up step by step. If you meet this morning, go to bed after ten minutes, and break up after an hour, this is obviously not love, and it is impossible to trigger the reader's sense of love substitution.

Tenth, write the most affectionate points. True feelings are divided into different levels. Authors write novels best to write a sense of hierarchy, especially to write the most affectionate points.

For example, love is also divided into three, six, nine, etc., if the novel writer wants to really impress people, he cannot describe shallow love, but write deep love. Finally sublimate love to the level of self-realization, and highly integrate love with the feelings of home and country, so that it seems to be able to produce small feelings and enter big feelings. Such love is a sublimated emotion. If love cannot be realized, no matter how much money is paid, it may not be able to join hands with the lover in the end, and the emotional pain that conforms to the objective law is the most impressive. It is also what the author should experience, think about and express. Writing about feelings that are usually difficult to achieve is called writing emotions.

Similarly, friendship and affection can be written with different layers. For example, to understand the struggle and mutual achievement between affection and career, it is necessary to write about emotional struggles. Emotions without struggle, unreal, similar to the stars in the sky, not credible. The more you struggle, the more moving you become. If you can write the most affectionate points, then you can write deep truth.

To write the most affectionate points, the hardest thing is to write the most affectionate in the grand narrative. In grand narratives, it is actually difficult to integrate the truth. If you enter into an individualized emotional narrative, it will weaken the sense of history of the grand narrative. Jin Yong has done this very well.

The first is how to express the truth. The second is how to integrate the expression of true feelings into the grand narrative structure. Can't be too sincere, that is a romance novel, it will appear mother-in-law, and male compatriots do not like to read. Grasping this scale is particularly important. How to combine the two requires writers to carefully consider their own needs.

The ten love writing methodologies summarized above have all been done and done very skillfully. Therefore, his novels can produce a strong and affectionate atmosphere, so that readers are deeply trapped in it, and even unable to extricate themselves.
