Bookworm.com!

The post about CS God of War Returns has finally appeared.

[This book is very well written, I don't know why I didn't sign a contract......]

This post only has a title.,The post just complained that "CS War Spirit Returns" was written very well.,I just don't know why I didn't sign a contract.。

Even Tong Yao suspected that Zheng Jia had made a vest to advertise herself, and when she looked at the reply to the post, sure enough.

"You're too direct with this advertisement, aren't you?"

"Sit back and wait for the post to be deleted!"

……

However, there are also readers who have actually read this book, such as the following.

"I've read this book, and it's really well written. ”

"I don't look at the writing like a newcomer, it's really well written, the plot is compact, the cool points are dense, and the author's update is quite stable, and I wonder why I didn't sign a ......."

"I guess the author doesn't care about signing a contract, otherwise this book would have been signed a long time ago......"

……

Seeing these comments, Tong Yao could only smile bitterly.

When a new book is released, all the author can do is update it on time and wait patiently for the signing!

However, according to the regulations of the website, after the release of the new book, 20,000 words, the background contracted editor is responsible for reviewing the new book in the library, and after the work meets the standard, you can sign the contract, then the contracted editor will release the signing SMS to the author's background.

If they are not qualified, the review editor will also be cross-reviewed and reviewed by the second editor.

If it does not meet the standard, the book will not be able to sign a contract in the early stage, but it is not hopeless, when the new book is 100,000 words, the author can apply for a contract through the background application.

If you still can't pass the active application for the contract, then every two weeks in the future, you can apply again for every 50,000 words that increase in the number of words.

But......

It is very difficult to take the initiative to apply for a contract, and if the work is not signed in the early stage, then the hope of signing a contract in the later stage is almost very slim.

Slim is slim, you still have to try, so after Tong Yao read the post on Bookworm.com, she immediately went to the backstage to submit an active signing application.

This application will be replied to in a week.

Next, Tong Yao would look at the background a few times every day, but unfortunately, the text messages in the station were as if they were dead, motionless.

All the way to the seventh day!

Seeing that the red button lit up in the station's mailbox, Tong Yao showed excitement, and then slowly clicked on the station's mailbox with a mood.

[It's a pity that your work does not meet the contract criteria, please keep up the good work, and look forward to your better work!]

Seeing that it was a pity, just like seeing thank you for your patronage when drinking a drink, Tong Yao only felt that her eyes were sore, and she couldn't help but want to cry.

More than a month of hard work, guarding loneliness and loneliness every day, getting up early and greedy for dark code words!

She really didn't expect that in the end, she would get this result!

Online novels, if you can't even sign a contract, then what's the point of continuing to write? For dreams? Can dreams buy clothes? Can dreams buy a delicious lunch? Can dreams make life better?

No, what is the use of this dream?

At night, Tong Yao expressed her indignation at the woman for the first time in a dream, and she felt that these editors did not know how to appreciate it.

The woman smiled and looked at her seriously, as if she was recalling something.

It took a long time before he said to her.

"The novel you're writing is too ahead of its time, so it's normal to not conform to the consensus of these editors. ”

"Ahead of the curve?"

"Yes, for example, have you heard the poem To the Oak Tree?"

Of course, this is Shu Ting's masterpiece. ”

"What do you think, then, would have been done in ancient times?"

"In ancient times?"

Tong Yao was stunned for a moment, as if she knew what the woman was going to say.

"This is exactly the case with online novels, as I said a long time ago, your world has not yet formed a complete understanding of online novels, and most of the editors and reviewers still refer to traditional literature, and they don't understand the market demand at all, let alone the concept of commercial novels.

To put it simply, they only know what kind of work they like, but they don't know what kind of work readers like.

On the other hand, do you think it is the readers who decide the direction of the development of the online novel, or the editors who decide the direction of the development of the online novel?"

This question is a bit like a chicken or an egg, Tong Yao will not be able to react for a while, and she is stupid, the woman laughed again.

"Hehe, then let me change the question, what is your purpose in writing online novels?"

"To make money, of course!"

"Whose money is it for?"

"Readers' money, of course. ”

"So who are you writing fiction to please you?"

"To please the reader, of course!"

The woman smiled.

"Isn't this the end of it?"

"Huh?"

"Ahh

"But...... But if you don't sign a contract, if you don't sign a contract, it means that the editor doesn't approve it, and if the editor doesn't approve it, you can't sign a contract and put it on the shelf, and if you can't sign a contract, you can't make money......"

"It's not easy, as long as enough readers like it, it's a matter of time before you sign a contract, haven't you heard of 'forcing the palace'?"

……

When she got up the next day, Zheng Jia saw that Tong Yao was absent-minded, so she quietly closed the data page of "CS God of War Returns", and leaned in front of Tong Yao and said with a smile.

"Tong Yao, there is an editor over there in Xintiandi who came to pull me over again, I recommended you to him, he read the "CS God of War Returns" you wrote, and thought it was very good, he said that as long as you agree to change stations, you can sign a contract if you go, and I promise to give more than 5 recommendations before putting it on the shelf, or ......"

Tong Yao looked at Zheng Jia, her heart was hot, she didn't tell Zheng Jia about her torment these days, but it doesn't mean that Zheng Jia doesn't know, she has also helped herself post a lot of posts on the bookworm network in private these days......

"Thank you, but I still hope to stay on the starting Chinese network, one is to accompany you, and the other is to be responsible for the readers who follow the reading, although the editor does not approve, but the readers recognize, you see, so many comments in the comment area encourage me...... If I'm gone, they'll be disappointed......"

……

Although the signing failed, Tong Yao still didn't want to give up, she firmly believed that gold would definitely shine!
