Chapter 66: Add Friends
A moment later, Machida Enko sent a web address. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xia You moved the mouse and clicked in curiously.
Contrary to what was expected, this official website dedicated to the Sneaker Newcomer Award is surprisingly plain and doesn't have too many decorations.
The website is divided into two web pages, at a glance, the homepage is listed with all the works participating in the newcomer award, Xia You roughly counted, there are nearly 100 copies, neatly and orderly.
"Only a hundred?"
Xia You was slightly puzzled.
If it is a newcomer award held by the ordinary library, there are more than 100 newcomer works that are already good.
But this is a newcomer award held by Kadokawa Bunko, one of the three royal families, and there are only more than 100 copies, which is really a little less.
After thinking about it, Xia You understood that before uploading the works, most of the Kadokawa Bunko had screened them in advance, and most of the works that couldn't even reach the average level were eliminated.
Otherwise, it is impossible for a newcomer award like this, which is comparable to the Dengeki Novel Award, to only have about a hundred works.
After thinking about this, Xia You didn't look much and clicked on another web page.
Unlike the homepage, this page only has a list, and the works that appear on it are the top 15 works in the Newcomer Awards.
According to what Machida Enko just said, all the awards of the Sneaker Rookie Award were born from these fifteen works.
is currently ranked first on the list, and it is an SF work called 'The Witch of the Seven Stars', whose author is called Garner Hayato, which should be a pen name.
Xia You watched all the way, and the works on the list were basically daily or SF-oriented themes.
Xia You was not surprised by this, this was similar to what he had heard from Lun Ye.
Compared with other genres, Kadokawa Bunko does explore these two types of themes more, and most of the novels currently serialized in the library are of these two types.
It is also for this reason that these new authors all chose these two types of themes to write in order to do what they liked.
However, this list is not completely devoid of other types of works.
For example, the work "Mechanical Dragon Warrior" ranked seventh is a campus mecha stream work similar to IS, and its author is called Izumi Masamune.
Xia You casually clicked on a few novels, glanced at them a few times, and found that there was actually not much content, only 30,000 words.
"It seems that only the first 30,000 words of the novel will be uploaded. ”
Xia You groaned, and then couldn't help nodding.
Well, too.
If you put less than that, it's not enough to make readers interested, but if you put too much so that readers can read it, even if you win an award, I'm afraid it won't be easy to sell when it's actually on sale.
Only 30,000 words like this can make readers interested, but it retains a certain amount of suspense, prompting readers to buy books, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Immediately, Xia You clicked back to the home page and began to look for his own book.
Although the official website operated by Kadokawa Bunko is simple and simple, it is extremely convenient in terms of function, and it seems that the feelings of the people who use the website are completely taken into account.
Because of this, Xia You easily found RE0.
But when he clicked in and looked, he found that no one seemed to be looking, and the data displayed was 26 clicks, and the number of recommendations was 20.
Since this site doesn't have a comment function, Xia You doesn't know how people who read RE0 feel.
Still, it should be good, right?
After all, clicks are almost the same as recommendations, which means that the readers who clicked in basically voted.
It's not bad when you think about it, after all, RE0 has only been in for an afternoon, so there's no need to rush too much.
Shaking his head, Xia You closed the website and reopened the line dialog box with Machida Yuanzi-
Natsu Aoku: Machida editor, I would like to ask, how are clicks and recommendations on works calculated?
Aster Flower: Every user who has read a work in one day is counted as a click, not counting duplicates, and each user has a recommendation vote to vote for every day.
Natsu Aoku: I see, it seems that no one is watching RE0 yet.
Machida Yuanzi thought that Xia You was a little discouraged, so she couldn't help but comfort: Teacher, don't worry too much, after all, RE0 was just put up this afternoon, and it is normal to be a little slow at first.
Xia You shrugged his shoulders slightly, in fact, he was not nervous at all, after all, in the past few years when he wrote online articles, he had experienced situations like this many times, and he had long been used to it.
But Xia You didn't say much, and typed: I know, I won't be in a hurry.
Aster: Well, that's good. I still have some things to do, so I'll go offline first, and if there is any situation, I will contact the teacher immediately.
Aster: And please make sure that your phone is turned on or online in the next few days, in short, at least I can have a way to contact the teacher.
Xia You replied with a smile: Okay, I know.
Immediately Machida Yuanzi went offline, and just as Xia You was about to quit the line, he saw that the avatar of the aster flower that had just darkened lit up again, and he couldn't help but pause.
Sure enough, a moment later, Machida Enko sent a message-
Aster: I'm sorry, teacher, but I forgot to mention something.
Xia You waited for a while, and did not rush to reply.
Immediately, he saw Machida Yuanzi send two LINE accounts, and he couldn't help but show doubts, and typed: This is?
Shionhana: This is the LINE account of two teachers, Kasumi Shiko and Yamada Fairy.
Looking at the message sent by Machida Yuanzi, Xia You couldn't help but be stunned, Kasumi Shizi, is it the Kasumi Shizi who wrote the love metronome?
Without waiting for him to ask, Machida Enko typed out again: I just forgot to tell you that in addition to Aoku-Natsu-sensei, I am now in charge of two other authors, namely Kasumi Shiko and Yamada Fairy.
Huh?!
Xia You was really taken aback, a little incredulous.
He knew that Kasumi Shiko and Yamada Fairy were both authors of Kadokawa Bunko, but he never thought that he would belong to the same editor as him.
The world is too small, isn't it?
"What's wrong, teacher?" Seeing that Xia Yu hadn't replied, Machida Enko couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Xia You hurriedly typed: It's nothing, it's just a little surprised.
Aster: Hehe, that's true, but it's okay, you'll get used to it soon, so please add their LINE account first.
Natsu Aoku: Okay
Then Xia You paused, and then typed and asked: But do they know me?
Shionka: I've already informed Yamada-sensei, and as for Kasumi-sensei, I've also sent a message, but she hasn't replied, and I don't know if I've noticed. Anyway, let's try to add it first.
Natsu Aoku: Okay.
Then Xia You opened the function bar of adding friends, and copied and pasted the LINE account of the Yamada fairy.
One-click query,It's a LINE user who pops up.,The nickname is "I'm super strong in video games", a screen name that looks like a ruined house.。
Speaking of which, Xia You remembered that he hadn't asked Machida Yuanzi what kind of people these two authors were.
Xia Shizi's words, he is not a stranger, although he has not seen what he looks like, but at least he knows that he is a high school girl.
But the Yamada goblin, Xia You doesn't know anything about it.
But according to the lily light novel written by this guy, and the screen name with a strong atmosphere of this abandoned house, most of it is a dead house that didn't run away, right?
"Uh......."
Thinking about it this way, Xia You is a little reluctant to submit a request to add friends.
I wanted to ask the editor of Machida, but found that she had already gone offline, and her avatar was gray, Xia You sighed, so she had to click Confirm Submit first.
Shaking his head, he typed in Kasumiko's LINE account, and her nickname was only one word "Kasumi".
Xia You also clicked a request to add friends, and then quit the LINE account.
...
