    Yesterday on Qidian, Er Gen posted this new announcement (my translation:

    Did Everyone Miss Me? HA HA HA HA

    2022.04.26

    Whether you missed me or not, I especially, extremely, really missed you all.

    The original plan was to start a new book this month, but firstly, the contract with China Literature isn't finalized yet, a new book can't come out yet. I want to, but it's out of my hands.

    The other reason is that due to the Covid epidemic in Shanghai, I've been on lockdown, so I figured I might as well take the time to work on the outline of my new book.

    Now everything is pretty much good to go. I'm just waiting for lockdown and the contract to be settled, then I can release my book.

    I've been pressing China Literature, and I estimate that everyone will be able to see my new book around mid-May.

    This new book, I can confidently tell you all, is really good, extremely good.

    A first-class work.

    The protagonist's name is Xu Qing (许青).

    Till we meet again in May.

    This does sound like Er Gen, much ado about nothing.

    I am aware its hype building so his readers check for it to boost its starting popularity stats , I just find that kind of activity funny, book, game or movie.

    Trailer with bunch of nonsense, THIS SUMMER! ROB SCHNEIDER! IS A STAPLER!

    Oh wow... Someone is confident.

    I mean, he is a bestseller of sorts, so I guess he can behave like that... Still, I dunno, I just prefer when people are a bit more humble about their work.

    well, at least Er Gen does finish his novels, unlike authors like Mad Snail, so that's something he's got going for him.
