Chapter 121: Participation
Half of an hour's overclocking of the brain is spent reading the original text, and the other half is spent coding words.
When the time was over, Qin Chuan found that the number of words counted in the document was more than 4,900!
He uploaded the file to the cloud, and when he returned to his residence, he could continue to write after it.
The total word count of "Metamorphosis" is not even comparable to the number of updates in a day for some web novels, and there is not much comparison between the two at all.
Back in the rented house, I just had someone clean it yesterday, and now the house is spotless and tidy.
Qin Chuan looked at the snack cabinet and refrigerator that were already empty, and prepared to go to the supermarket for dinner later.
The most irritating thing about not having a car is carrying a heavy bag home from the supermarket.
Although the supermarket has a takeaway business, for a lazy person like Qin Chuan, it is not too troublesome to go shopping, eating and drinking.
Without the overclocking state of the brain, Qin Chuan's progress almost stagnated.
His daily memory was not good enough to memorize every word clearly, so he had to rest and wait for a few hours and then open for half an hour.
I got fatter and stronger, and I was able to have an extra 30 minutes of time a day.
As a result, the overclocking time of the brain became more and more insufficient, and he was thinking about whether to raise the VIP level of the life transformation system after waiting for the physical remuneration of "Zhu Xian" to arrive.
I don't know exactly where the money will be deducted by the system.
……
Shen Xu was the only one left in the office area of Xingshi Culture, still sitting in front of the computer, and a colleague who had been smoking in the corridor for a long time asked casually: "Old Shen, why don't you get off work yet? ”
"I'm waiting for Qin Chuan to send the outline of the new book, and he said that he sent it to me today, but I don't know why it's delayed until now. ”
"I envy you. Qin Chuan: This is almost the third part, right? The creation speed is so fast, and the quality is good. You've really found a treasure!"
Shen Xu also complimented: "Brother Zhou, you are not kind, who doesn't know that you just helped sell 8 million game copyrights, this is our company's first big order at the beginning of the year." The boss should have given you a lot of bonuses, so it's off to a good start. ”
"No, no, no. I'm just a part-time worker. On your side, the main thing is that the requirements are too high. So many companies came to negotiate business, and you didn't agree. Don't always think about eating a big fat man in one bite, come to a business and talk about it, dislike people's low prices, and people are also picking on us. ”
"If only I could know so many people like Brother Zhou, I could sit in the company and read novels and play games every day!"
"There will be a day. I'll go first, and you should leave work early. ”
Shen Xu waved goodbye to Zhou Weiming, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
It's a bit tiring to build relationships with colleagues.
Don't look at the two of them chatting happily just now, in fact, the 8 million game copyright that Zhou Weiming helped others represent was snatched from Shen Xu's side.
Obviously, Shen Xu is discussing with this game company about the mobile game "People Grow and Hate Water Changdong", but he feels that the price is a bit low, so he has been grinding it slowly.
After all, this novel can't be as suitable as "Zhu Xian" to be adapted into a game, they are all small manufacturers.
If the price is 10 million, Shen Xu is ready to report the good news to Qin Chuan and prepare to sign a contract.
Who knew that after a Spring Festival, the game company hooked up with Zhou Weiming for some reason, and directly bought the adaptation rights of the novel mobile game of the agent for 8 million.
"Forget it. The mobile game "People Grow and Hate Water Changdong" is gone, and "Zhu Xian" can't have problems!"
Shen Xu made up his mind that he must win the perfect era!
This game company has been at the forefront of domestic game developers all year round, and the games it produces are basically popular online games, and the reviews among players are not bad.
And what they want to buy is all the game-related copyrights of "Zhu Xian", terminal games, web games, mobile games, cards, etc., which will definitely be a bomb news in the game market this year.
If you don't have 8 million, you may get 20 million or even more!
The more popular and reader-bound "Zhu Xian" is, the more beneficial it is to the cultural negotiation of the practitioners.
Shen Xu plans to communicate with Qin Chuan well, and be sure to maintain the popularity of "Zhu Xian" well, so that he can gain more initiative at the negotiation table.
In the book market and online literature market, there are very few works that can be eaten on both sides.
It is precisely "Zhu Xian" that has this potential!
In Huayue.com, it has topped a series of lists such as monthly ticket lists and best-selling lists, and its reader activity and discussion volume ranked first on the whole network.
When a plot is killed, readers can be seen scolding all over the Internet.
However, it is slightly weaker in the physical field, and after the Spring Festival, the first two books have broken 500,000 sales, and the reprinting mode has been opened!
As soon as the sales of the finale come out, this negotiation should be over.
So Shen Xu is actually quite busy, he still has to ask Qin Chuan to bring the outline and type of the new book, and then he can find someone to help him do market research to see what direction he should push.
The culture of walkers is to serve writers, not to bind them.
No matter what Qin Chuan wrote, Shen Xu could only accept it, and then try to promote it.
"This guy can't really forget, right?"
Shen Xu was messy in the wind, and he didn't want to sit in the office until the early hours of the morning.
So he only took out his mobile phone and dialed Qin Chuan's mobile phone.
Qin Chuan was pushing the shopping cart to make a big purchase in the supermarket, and after feeling the vibration, he picked up the phone, but when he looked at the caller ID, he suddenly felt weak!
It was at this moment that he realized that he had pigeoned an agent.
"Brother Shen, I just wanted to call you! I'll send you the outline of the new book in two days. ”
However, Shen Xu knew it was a lie as soon as he heard it.
Everyone who forgets things is in the same tone.
He didn't delve into it, and asked, "What's the matter, is it difficult to give birth to the new book?"
If that's the case, Shen Xu can also understand.
Fiction is not meant to be written and written immediately.
It was the Spring Festival holiday in front, and I had just finished writing "Zhu Xian", so it was normal to have time to brew and precipitate.
Qin Chuan sighed and said helplessly: "When the faculty meeting of the new semester was held today, I was named by the principal and the director of the physical education department to participate in a young writer writing competition, which can be regarded as a mandatory task. ”
"Then there's no way around it. ”
Shen Xu was also speechless, "This award is still quite formal and authoritative, and it is well-known in the literary circle, and it has attracted a lot of attention in previous sessions." Do you have an idea?"
"I'm writing, it's a 30,000-word brain novel, writing about what it would be like for a person to suddenly become a beetle. ”
"This?" Shen Xu didn't know what to say, "Then it's about participating!"
This is not an online novel essay, but a serious literary contest.
The judges are all talented people in various fields, and will they like a short story that turns into a beetle?
I guess I'm just making up a novel story.
Qin Chuan also knew that when the novel was not taken out, it was estimated that no one would be optimistic that he, an online writer, would be able to rise to the top in the literary competition.
But if you can't appreciate "Metamorphosis", you can only let that group of judges go to high school Chinese class again, and let the Chinese teacher help them analyze the writing intention, technique, and meaning!
He's not just going to participate, he's aiming for the Gold Award!
