In the next two days, Summer finished writing the opening chapters of "Notes on Tomb Robbery" and "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" one after another.

Among them, writing "Notes on Tomb Robbery" was the most distressing to him. Because there are so many pits that need to be dug in this novel, you will forget it if you are not careful.

Therefore, when I was writing, I racked my brains in the summer, wrote it once and checked it twice, and it took time and effort to finish the 25,000 words.

"No wonder I heard that the writer of this novel, Uncle Nanpai, later fell ill, and if I continue to write, I will have a nervous breakdown. "It's easy to finish writing "Notes on Tomb Robbery", Summer said with a long breath.

Then he brought Tang Congsheng and handed him the last novel.

While he was busy writing novels, Tang Congsheng was not idle, he had already led people to typeset several other novels, and also invited illustrators to draw illustrations......

"President, this novel of yours is really amazing. After Tang Congsheng finished reading it, he praised again.

It was the first time he had seen such a wonderful adventure novel, and he felt that it was even more wonderful than what Ni Jing had written.

The mysterious tombs, the teammates who are inseparable from the evil, and the strange monsters...... It greatly stimulated his imagination and allowed his mind to enjoy a hearty meal.

Summer smiled, he had heard this sentence several times in the past two days, and there was nothing new about it.

"Okay, don't praise me, if you think this book is also useful, then take it and typeset it. He smiled, then asked, "How soon will we be able to launch our inaugural issue?"

"Today, I'll take you to make a sample issue first, and if you're satisfied, president, it can be printed tonight and officially sold tomorrow. Tang Congsheng said confidently.

As long as there is enough draft, everything else will be easy to do.

"Okay, then you can get busy first. "In the summer, when I heard him say that the magazine would be officially launched tomorrow, I couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"The day of making a lot of money is not far off. He smirked.

……

In the afternoon, Tang Congsheng had already made a sample magazine.

When I held it in my hand, I saw that the cover turned out to be a beautiful woman dressed as an ancient lady, holding a glowing sword, fighting against a robot.

"Uh...... Why does this illustration feel so familiar?" he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "This should be imitated from the American science fiction movie "Star Wars", right?" he asked Tang Congshengdao.

replaced the Jedi with a costume fairy, and replaced the laser sword with a purple and green sword, Hong Kong's illustrators really have the ability to copycat.

Tang Congsheng smiled and nodded, "I saw that this magazine has both science fiction novels and Xianxia novels, so I suggested that the illustrator design a cover that has both Xianxia and science fiction, and he thought of the Star Wars." ”

Summer couldn't help but laugh and sneered, "It's a good study, although it's a little weird, but maybe it can attract the reader's interest more." ”

Tang Congsheng also smiled and introduced, "President, the four words 'Fantasy World' were inscribed by Mr. Cha himself. ”

Summer nodded, he didn't know much about calligraphy, but seeing that these four characters were neatly written, full of strength, and looked very powerful, he knew that they must be good words.

And there are eight small words under the four big characters - "infinite mystery, ultimate fantasy". These eight words are also the purpose of the magazine "Fantasy World", which is to challenge the limits of imagination and bring readers an interesting reading experience.

After opening the cover, the second cover (the inside page of the cover) is blank, and the title page is a frontispiece, also written by Mr. Cha himself. In the article, he talked about the reasons for the establishment of the journal, pointed out the current difficulties faced by martial arts novels, and determined to revitalize the literary world and bring more and more delicious spiritual food to the public.

"Mr. Cha has high expectations for us. After reading it, Summer said with a smile.

Turning it back, on the back are the messages written by many literati, publishers, and book lovers for this magazine, which are dense and diverse, making people feel that this magazine has a lot of background and face.

"Wow, there are so many friends cheering for us, then we must run this magazine well, and don't let them down." Seeing that she received so many blessings, she couldn't help but smile happily.

"Yes. Tang Congsheng nodded, "But the president, there are no martial arts novelists in Hong Kong, and they still have an uncooperative attitude towards us." ”

"It's okay, don't mind that. Let's just run our own magazines, and it's their own business whether they win or not. Everything is according to fate, not forced. Summer waved his hand.

He could guess the minds of those writers because they were young and had no qualifications, so they were not convinced. Naturally, I don't want to add icing on the cake and carry a sedan chair for myself.

"It's still the president, you can think of it. Tang Congsheng smiled and said.

Summer then flipped through the contents again, and looked at the third cover (inside the back cover) and the fourth cover (back cover). The back cover design is much simpler than the cover, just a pale blue.

"Our magazine is not receiving advertisements now, so the second, third and fourth covers are now vacant. But I think when the sales come out, there will be advertisers to negotiate. Seeing those blank pages, Tang Congsheng also felt a little ashamed.

"It doesn't matter, our magazine has just been established, and advertisers have no confidence in us, which is also normal. Summer smiled and said, "But even if there are advertisements in the future, we must be selective, and they must conform to the positioning of our magazine, and they should not be put in a basket as vegetables." ”

"Oh. Tang Congsheng responded, but he felt that he didn't understand Summer's approach very well.

Of course, the more advertisements the magazine receives, the better, the more expensive the better, so why should it conform to the positioning of the magazine. It's just a three-dollar popular book, the most popular, what kind of positioning can you talk about!

But now there are no advertisements, and there is no need for him to argue with Summer, so he answered and didn't speak again.

……

In the summer, I took this sample magazine and went to meet Kim Yong.

"Mr. Cha, I have good news for you, the sample issue of our "Fantasy World" has finally come out, you can take a look. Summer handed over the sample.

"Oh, so fast?!" Kim Yong smiled in surprise.

From the beginning of the establishment to the present, it has only been six days, but I didn't expect the first sample issue to be released, and the speed is really first-class.

He then carefully flipped through it, from the front cover to the back cover, from the layout to the illustrations, and nodded with satisfaction after looking at them one by one, "Ah Tian, this magazine is doing a good job, I think it can be officially released." ”

"Since Mr. Cha also said yes, then I am more confident. Xia smiled, "By the way, Mr. Cha, can you help me promote it in the newspaper?"

Jin Yong smiled slightly, "I have prepared it for a long time, you see, the article has been written for you." The advertising space of the second edition tomorrow, the advertising space of the front page of the day after tomorrow, and the advertising space of the weekly supplement will be given to you for free, how about it?"

"Thank you, Mr. Cha. Xia said with a smile, these advertising spaces are so important, there are no three or four hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, but they can't be taken.

Ming Pao now sells 150,000 copies, and if one out of 10 readers buys the magazine, it will sell 15,000 copies. How can you sell 20,000 copies in a week?

"You're welcome, you have to provide all the manuscripts for the magazine, so I want to say thank you to you. Jin Yong waved his hand. If he was asked to open six novels at the same time and contribute to a magazine, he wouldn't be able to keep an eye on it.

"Ah Tian, I know you're very capable, but I suggest you find other sources of contributions as soon as possible. Otherwise, you have to write six novels by yourself, and you have to write 25,000 words a day, which is too hard. Besides, if you have something to do one day and can't write, it will be even more troublesome. Jin Yong suggested again.

Summer blinked, he hadn't thought about it yet. Being reminded by Jin Yong like this, he suddenly realized the seriousness of this problem.

The novel "Fantasy World" is a weekly magazine that is published once a week. I have to write six novels, each of which is 25,000 words, which is already very busy, and I have a tight schedule every day.

If something really happens at the moment, or if you get sick, the magazine will be faced with a situation where there is no manuscript available. When the time comes, the magazine will not be able to be published, which will be quite bad for the reputation of the magazine.

"Mr. Cha, you just reminded me. Summer nodded.

But how can it be so easy to find a channel for contributions, those martial arts novelists in Hong Kong were bewitched by Ni Wei, and one by one Wang Ba ate the scales, and they were determined not to cooperate. Where can he go to find the manuscript?!

"Hey?!" Summer's eyes lit up, "I'm too busy myself, but I can find someone to write it for me." ”

He suddenly thought of an unspoken rule in the film and television industry, that is, the screenwriter's studio system.

Many screenwriters who have made a name for themselves in the industry do not write themselves, but hire a group of gunmen to write them for themselves, and he is just responsible for providing the outline, straightening out the plot, and finally using his fame to sell the script for a good price.

This creative situation is not entirely bad, but in fact it has a role in cultivating trust. After all, young people are new to the industry, have no fame, no experience, and no film and television companies are willing to invite.

But if you study with a well-known screenwriter for a period of time, you can not only make a lot of money and solve the most practical problems in life, but also accumulate experience and popularity until you finally become a teacher.

After graduating from school in the summer, he worked as a gunman for a period of time, and learned a lot of experience from his boss, which laid a certain foundation for him to work hard in the entertainment industry.

"Anyway, those veteran writers don't want to work with me, so I might as well find some young people to train me. Summer thought to herself.

At that time, the veteran writer had a heavy burden of thought and didn't want to carry a sedan chair for his juniors. But those young people shouldn't matter. Besides, young people have flexible brains and are relatively quick to accept new things, so it should be easier to get started with writing fantasy-themed novels.
