Skills and methods of plot setting in novels

The techniques and techniques for setting the plot of the novel are as follows:

1. suspense: in the narrative, first set a riddle to hide the answer, and find it at the right time to meet the reader's expectation. The main function of suspense is to attract readers and fascinate them.

2. foreshadowing: give hints or hints to the characters or events that will appear in the work in advance, so that the full text echoes before and after, the structure is more rigorous, the plot development is more reasonable, and the cause and effect are clearer.

3. Repression: The object of writing should be suppressed or suppressed first, so that the literary situation changes in twists and turns, resulting in ups and downs.

4. Care: also called echo, can make the plot coherent, the context clear and the structure compact.

5. Contrast: Comparing two things or two different aspects of the same thing together, the function is generally to show the characters or highlight the theme.

6. foil: refers to the way to express another person or thing by depicting one person or thing. Divided into positive contrast and negative contrast. It can make the works more vivid, the images of people and things more prominent and the themes more vivid.

7. A sharp turn: At the end of the novel, a sharp turn is used to form a "coincidence" of the plot, or an unexpected reversal, or a "mutation" of the character's personality. This sudden turn will often receive unexpected and reasonable results, which will make the finishing point of the theme of the novel.
