Chapter 203: Novel Contest and Earn 100 Million Yuan
"In three months, the biennial 'Easy Cup' Novel Contest will begin. Director Wu Guokun said, "You have an extremely outstanding talent for book appreciation, and the Reading Alliance would like to invite you to be a judge of the novel competition." β
"Judge?" Liu Xing's brows moved slightly.
"Not bad. Director Wu Guokun explained, "Although you are not a book connoisseur yet, your rare book connoisseurship intuition can play a greater role than a book connoisseur." Therefore, the Tianhai City Appreciation Association is ready to recommend you to the Reading Alliance as a judge of the novel competition. β
Founded by Xiaoyaoke, the king of books, the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest has been successfully held for 20 sessions, and it is one of the four most influential novel contests in China.
The Novel Contest is held every two years, and each contest attracts the country's top writers to participate, and it is the most popular competition in the Chinese reading world.
The live TV ratings of each edition of the Novel Contest are far ahead of other programs.
The Novel Contest has become the most anticipated annual event for Chinese readers.
In such a large-scale competition, the importance of the judges of the competition is self-evident.
The judges of the Xiaoyao Cup Novel Contest are all top connoisseurs.
In Huaxia, there are grades of connoisseurs, the highest is six, and the lowest is first.
The level of undergraduate students in the Department of Appreciation is about the first level of book connoisseurs, and the level of master students is level two book connoisseurs, and only doctoral students can pass the examination of Level 3 book connoisseurs.
Judges of the book appreciation competition need to obtain at least a certificate of level 4 book connoisseur.
Therefore, these judges are all veteran connoisseurs who have been working in the book appreciation department for decades. Most of them are over 60 years old.
Liu Xing has not even obtained the first-level book connoisseur certificate, and he can't even listen to the basic courses of the first year of the undergraduate book connoisseur. Now he has been invited to serve as a judge of the novel competition, which is definitely the first person in the history of Huaxia.
"Director Wu. Isn't that appropriate?" Liu Xing confessed, "I don't know anything about the theory of book appreciation. β
Director Wu Guokun said: "It doesn't matter, your identity is a consultant to the jury, and the work you are responsible for is not the same as that of ordinary judges. β
After his explanation, Liu Xing basically understood.
Liu Xing is not very interested in serving as a judge for the novel competition, after all, his goal is to cultivate immortals, and reading novels is king.
Just if you want to cultivate immortals, you need a lot of novels, and he has only collected 10 black shadow man novels that can enter the gods. The number is far from enough.
If you want to cultivate immortals, you must attract more excellent writers to help him write novels.
Obviously, this is the perfect opportunity for a novel contest.
The contestants of the novel contest are all first-class writers, and if he can take the opportunity to meet some excellent writers from all over the country, Liu Xing's path to immortal cultivation will definitely be smoother.
With these in mind, Liu Xing felt that it was not impossible to serve as a judge for the competition.
Even as a judge, he can still find time to continue reading novels.
"Since you have agreed, then I will convey your intention to the Book Appreciation Society. Director Wu Guokun said, "After a while." You should be able to receive an invitation from the Reading Alliance, and there will be some arrangements for it. β
Liu Xing nodded.
After talking about the novel contest, Director Wu Guokun left.
β¦β¦
Seven days later.
Wang Lanlan's "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man" was fully released in Tianhai City.
Meteor Book Bar is the general agent of this novel, and all 100,000 novels are sent to Meteor Book Bar.
In order to prevent the Meteor Book Bar from being crowded. Liu Xing distributed 100,000 copies of the novel, and 129 bookstores on Novel Street jointly undertook the sales of "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man".
On the first day of sales, Novel Street saw a more than four-fold increase in footfall compared to usual. The whole street was crowded with readers who came to buy books. In order to maintain order at the scene, more than 50 police officers were dispatched from Tianhai City.
In just three days. 100,000 copies of "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man" were sold out.
With this novel, Wang Lanlan earned 100 million yuan. directly entered the top ten of the Tianhai City Female Writers Rich List.
β¦β¦
Meteor Book Bar, the bar counter in the lobby on the first floor.
Wang Lanlan sat in front of a computer, staring at the computer screen with big bright eyes, and the web page on the screen displayed the deposit information of a bank card.
The depositor is "Wang Lanlan", and the deposit amount is "1000000000 yuan".
At this time, Wang Lanlan was staring intently at the long string of numbers on the screen, and her face showed an unconcealable look of joy.
This 100 million yuan is the manuscript fee she received today, all from "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man".
Growing so big, it was the first time for Wang Lanlan to see so much money.
"How about it, it feels good to have a deposit of 100 million yuan in the bank card, right?" At this time, a voice came from behind him, it was Liu Xing.
"Hmm. Wang Lanlan nodded again and again, "It feels like a dream, and I actually made so much money at once." β
Liu Xing got straight to the point: "When will you send me 70 million?"
Wang Lanlan said: "Don't worry, the money will be remitted to you sooner or later, you let me see it for a few more days." β
Liu Xing was curious: "Are you really willing to remit 70 million to me?"
"I can't help it, I can't make this money without your help, this is what you deserve. Wang Lanlan pouted, "What's more, grandpa told me that a writer can't care about money, otherwise it will be difficult to write spiritual works." I have left 30 million yuan for myself, which is already a lot, and I may not be able to spend it in my life. β
Liu Xingdian was surprised, this girl's ideological realm is quite high, and she is worthy of being cultivated by Wang Tairan.
The two were chatting, when the TV in the hall suddenly played a program - "Interview with Yaxin".
When the show began to air, Wang Lanlan's attention was immediately attracted.
Because the guest interviewed in tonight's "Yaxin Interview" is Wang Lanlan.
With the hot sales of "Detective Wang Nan: The Black Shadow Man", Wang Lanlan made a net profit of 100 million yuan in seven days, becoming the youngest billionaire in Tianhai City and one of the richest female writers.
So, Zhang Yaxin invited Wang Lanlan to Tianhai TV yesterday to record an episode of "Yaxin Interview".
The program is on the air.
"Audience friends in front of the TV, welcome to tonight's "Yaxin Interview". Our guest today is a lively and lovely little beauty writer. You may not have heard her name, but you must have heard of the novel she wrote - "Detective Wang Nan" ......"
After a brief monologue, the show moves on to the interview.
"Wang Lanlan, you have written three novels in two years, and each one has been very successful. "Detective Wang Nan" sold more than 1.2 million copies, "Detective Wang Nan's Condor Book Coffin Strange Case" sold more than 1.7 million copies, and the sales of "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man" exceeded 200 million yuan. Zhang Yaxin asked, "What do you think is the secret of your success?"
"The secret of success? I guess I'm lucky. I don't really have much talent, I started learning to write since I was a child, but I couldn't write well. Wang Lanlan said, "I was able to persevere, mainly thanks to three people. β
"The first person I want to thank is my grandfather, who was my first loyal reader and my first mentor in writing. Grandpa let me know what fiction is, what a novelist is, and what he taught has benefited me for the rest of my life. β
"The second person I want to thank is Liu Xing, who is my best confidant. He watched each of my works many times and made a lot of suggestions. Without Liu Xing, I would have given up writing a long time ago. Well, I'm really glad to have such a good friend as Liu Xing, although he is a little picky, hehe. β
"The third person I'd like to thank is the Shadow Man. Without the Black Shadow Man, there would be no "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man". β
β¦β¦
The show continued to play, and Wang Lanlan watched it with relish.
This is her first time on a TV show, and everything naturally seems very new.
An hour later, the show finally ended.
"Liu Xing, do you say that the dark shadow man can see tonight's "Yaxin Interview"?". Wang Lanlan suddenly asked.
"What's wrong?"
"The Black Shadow Man once said that when my "Detective Wang Nan's Black Shadow Man" came on the market, he would come to me and ask me to give him a novel. Wang Lanlan blinked with big eyes and asked seriously, "Did you say that the Black Shadow Man would come?"
Liu Xing said: "The black shadow man is a big man, how can he pay attention to a little kid like you?"
"No, the Shadow Man must be an uncle who abides by his admissions. Wang Lanlan's eyes rolled, she remembered something, and asked, "By the way, Liu Xing, who do you think is the girlfriend of the black shadow man?"
"Why do you suddenly care about this?"
"I originally thought that the Black Shadow Man and Sister Xin were a good match, and the Black Shadow Man had saved Sister Xin several times, what a lifetime couple. Wang Lanlan's crescent-like thin eyebrows curled, "However, the Black Shadow Man also saved Sister Yaxin once last time, and Sister Yaxin is also very beautiful, I feel that she and the Black Shadow Man seem to be quite suitable." You said that if the Dark Shadow Man chooses a girlfriend, will he choose Sister Xin or Sister Yaxin?"
Liu Xingdao: "This question is not very difficult, choose the one with a good figure......
"......" Wang Lanlan despised him, "Dark shadow talents are not so good-lewd." β
β¦β¦
In the evening, in the reading room.
Liu Xing was holding a copy of "Variety of Black Shadow Man", reading it intently, and the pictures in his mind were changing rapidly.
These graphics are not entirely new, but are transformed from the graphics of The Dark Man: The Flash.
He uses the same and different reading technique as it is.
Tranquility and emotion!
Emotions and emotions follow!
The situation is born of love!
Situational unity!
Five hours later, the four steps of the same situation and different feelings were completed.
Put down the novel, and the book is swept away.
