After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Character in the 1980s, I Trash Them All

After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Character in the 1980s, I Trash Them All

Su Hanyan transmigrates into a novel set in the industrialization period. She becomes a cannon fodder side character - one with a weak personality, who is always being bullied by others and often used as an unlucky sacrificial lamb by the novel's main characters! In the novel, her 'fantastic' mother favors boys over girls. Carrying the mindset of 'sacrificing her daughter's life for the happiness of the family, she is made to give up her job for the female lead and that marks the start of her tragic life. Her family bleeds her dry, just like the female lead. She goes after the same guy as the female lead despite being abused by her husband. It can't be any worse. After recapping the entire story, Su Hanyan tears the script into shreds. There's no way she's going to be cannon fodder! She was never a coward! To deal with these heartless people, she has only one thought. She cannot let them have their way! In two words, f*ck them! Enter the young and talented surgeon, Jin Chen. His looks, capabilities, and family background are top class. He's cold and proud. Many women have tried to woo him but no one has caught his eye. This continues until one day—the usually indifferent Dr. Jin directs his warm and adoring gaze towards a young lady and says, "Anything Yanyan says goes!" Everyone is stunned. How did this random stray from the Su family get you into her hands? "Woo her!" Jin Chen smiles brightly. "I was the one who wooed her. The secret is to be shameless!"

In a group-pampering novel, Nan Qiao was the female supporting character who lost her glamor as the female lead. She was cast aside by her father, her three brothers, her grandparents, and her friends. Her father wanted to cut off all ties with her, her three brothers only adored her stepsister, and her grandparents, who favored boys over girls, also sided with her stepsister from another mother. "Stop trying to tie me down. The person I love is Zhi," Nan Qiao's fiance said. "Nan Qiao, will you stop being so problematic? Your sister saved your life," her father said. "Nan Qiao, I'm very disappointed in you," her eldest brother said. "How could you hit your sister? Don't you know how fragile your sister's body is?" Her second brother asked. "I can't believe you're such a heartless person," her third brother said. "Kick her out. The Nan family won't tolerate such a horrible child!" Her grandparents exclaimed. After reincarnating, Nan Qiao came to her senses. Since none of you want me here, I'll be the first to leave this time. Nan Qiao inherited assets worth billions from her maternal grandfather, and her seven brothers from the maternal side of her family pampered her beyond reason.

Just as Nan Qiao's life was getting better, a top-notch villain in the original novel set his sights on her. Huo Yichen pinched Nan Qiao's chin and squinted a little. There was a cold look in his eyes. "What's the matter? Do you think you can run away after flirting with me?" *** Nan Qiao thought everything that happened in the past would stay in the past, but her family, like her, reincarnated with memories from the previous lifetime. Having tortured her a thousand times over, her family came to her with tears streaming down their faces and begged her to return home. "I'm sorry, Qiao. I made a mistake."

Well, 'The Hobbit' by J.R.R. Tolkien can be considered character - driven in a sense. Bilbo Baggins' transformation from a timid hobbit to a brave adventurer is what moves the story forward. Then there's 'The Earthsea Cycle' by Ursula K. Le Guin. Ged's growth and his struggle with power are key aspects of the story. And don't forget 'American Gods' by Neil Gaiman, which has a host of characters whose actions and personalities shape the narrative.

I think 'The Dark Tower' series by Stephen King is a good one. Roland Deschain is a very deep character, his quest for the Dark Tower is not just a physical journey but also a journey of self - discovery. 'Uprooted' by Naomi Novik also has strong character - driven elements. The main character Agnieszka is a complex girl who has to grow and face challenges. And 'The Priory of the Orange Tree' by Samantha Shannon has many well - crafted characters. Ead Duryan, for instance, has her own secrets and motives that drive her actions and the overall story as she tries to protect her world from a great evil.

In character - driven fantasy novels, the characters' internal struggles, growth, and relationships are the main focus. For example, in 'The Alchemist' by Paulo Coelho, Santiago's personal journey of self - discovery is what really matters. In plot - driven ones, it's the events and the overarching story arc that take precedence. So, like in a mystery - plot - driven fantasy, the solving of the mystery is more important than the character's inner thoughts.

Sure. 'Ella Enchanted' by Gail Carson Levine is an excellent beginner - friendly character - driven fantasy novel.

The characters themselves are key. Their desires, fears, and flaws drive the plot. For example, in 'The Lord of the Rings', Frodo's fear of the Ring's power yet his sense of duty drives him on his quest. Also, the world - building is important. It provides the backdrop against which the characters' stories unfold. Magic systems can be part of this world - building. And relationships between characters, like the friendship between Sam and Frodo, add depth and emotion to the story.

In plot - driven novels, the focus is on the sequence of events. The story unfolds through a series of actions, twists, and turns. For example, in a mystery novel, the plot might revolve around solving a crime. The characters are often there to move the plot forward. In character - driven novels, it's all about the characters. Their personalities, growth, and relationships are central. We get to know their inner thoughts and feelings deeply.

Plot - driven novels tend to be more action - oriented. They might have a lot of external conflict, such as a hero fighting against a villain. The plot twists keep the reader on the edge of their seat. On the other hand, character - driven novels are deeper in terms of exploring human nature. The characters' emotions and how they respond to situations are crucial. For instance, a character - driven novel might show how a person copes with loss or finds meaning in life, and the plot unfolds as a result of the character's journey.

An example of a plot - driven novel is 'The Da Vinci Code' by Dan Brown. The whole story is centered around solving the mystery of the Holy Grail. The characters are constantly in a race against time to uncover secrets. For a character - driven novel, 'To Kill a Mockingbird' by Harper Lee is a great example. The story is mainly about Scout's growth and her understanding of the world around her, especially the injustice in her town, through the lens of her father's character.
