Chapter 16 postscript

In 1994, "Qiao Jingfu" hadn't been born yet—because I hadn't come up with this pseudonym at that time. Back then, I was still a fledgling boy working as an international news translator for a newspaper.From the beginning to the end of that year, I fell into a strange frenzy. Almost all my spare time was spent on climbing the grid, turning the blank manuscript paper into the manuscript of "Blade of Fantasy Kingdom" .When I wrote the latter part, in order to concentrate, I even took a whole week of vacation, and went back to the student cafeteria of my alma mater, City Polytechnic, to study hard every day.The first draft of this book happened to be completed on the last day of that year - I hid at home to write novels on New Year's Eve, which shows how "nerdy" I was back then.

At that time, what supported me to finish writing "Blade of Fantasy Kingdom" was only the eager desire to "want to be a novelist", and an inexplicable self-confidence. A full year after the book).Back then, of course, I couldn’t have imagined that this book, together with the Taiwan edition and this latest edition, would be published in as many as four different editions (haha, if you count the pirated editions that were released under the name of Mr. Ni Kuang in the Mainland, that would be five) . The name "Da Dao Zhen Jian Tang" first appeared in "Blade of Fantasy Kingdom".I especially use it again in "The Poetry of Budokan", just to commemorate this novel that is of great significance to my life and creative process.

I must thank one person here, she is sister Xuan from the Railway Museum. "Blade of Fantasy Kingdom" was first favored by the publishing house because of her introduction; later, my writing career continued—including the revision and reprint of "Blade of Fantasy Kingdom", thanks to her great support; and Skywalker launched this latest There are so many editions that she gave up the copyright without saying a word.To put it simply: without her, "Qiao Jingfu" might never have appeared, or might have disappeared a long time ago. I am not religious.But being able to meet a friend like her in my life makes me wonder if I did something special in my previous life.
