The authors and creators of donghua
Zongheng's perfectionistMars Gravity (火星引力) is the author of Against the Gods (逆天邪神), one of the Zongheng platform's biggest hits, and a figure of the new generation of online novelists.
Career
A Zongheng author, Mars Gravity began with online-game novels such as Wang You Zhi Xie Long Ni Tian (网游之邪龙逆天) and Wang You Zhi Xiu Luo Chuan Shuo (网游之修罗传说), then published Tian Chen (天辰).
He found fame with Against the Gods (逆天邪神): the story of Yun Che, killed in his previous life, who is reborn, inherits an evil god's blood and defies Heaven. The novel became one of Zongheng's flagship titles and was adapted into a donghua.
Style and themes
Mars Gravity bets on revenge, power and spectacle, with a hero who stops at nothing. In interviews he has said he never gets stuck on plot, which he outlines very precisely, but often struggles over word choice: he rewrites constantly, sometimes deleting whole passages to find the expression that will move readers most.
