Chapter 014 Rich and Rich! Shake the Internet Literature Circle!

Huh~ Fan fiction essay contest?

Yang Hu saw the word "same person", and a big question mark couldn't help but pop up on his head, what is "same person"?

Everyone has curiosity, Yang Hu is no exception, he quickly clicked the left mouse button to open the portal, blinking, Yang Hu had an extra post in front of him, when he saw the title of the post, he couldn't help but round two eyes.

"The 2002 Fan Fiction Essay Contest is about to start, and 10,000 grand prizes are waiting for you!"

Oh my God, is this 10,000 grand prize 10,000 RMB?

Yang Hu's monthly salary is not high, only a little more than a thousand, so the five-figure essay award has had a big impact on him, and his heart is ready to move.

Look, even Yang Hu who can't write online articles are salivating over the 10,000 award, not to mention those authors who often write on the Internet for free, if [2002 Starting Point Author Welfare] is the spring of online writers, then [2002 Starting Point Fan Fiction Essay Contest] is the ladder to heaven for online writers.

Yang Hu doesn't know what fan fiction is?

In fact, not only does Yang Hu not know what fan fiction is, but people in this world do not have a clear understanding of "fan fiction", because in the story outline set by Chen Mo, the word "fan fiction" was first proposed by the original owner, and it was also the first original literary portal to open up the classification of fan fiction.

It is precisely in this way that Chen Mo explained what is a fan fiction in the fan fiction essay post?

Fan fiction: refers to a re-created novel that uses elements such as characters, storylines, or background settings from original comics, animations, novels, and film and television works.

Fan fiction expressions:

1. Completely original interpretation, i.e., text version of comics, movies or others.

2. Analysis of the emotions of the original characters in the original work.

3. Other plots developed by the original characters in the original book under the original setting.

4. Other stories that happened in the original characters of the original book in different time and space backgrounds.

5. Interpretation of the original fairy tale.

6. Other types.

Chen Mo took "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" as an example, and expounded in a few sentences that the protagonist of the Condor Shooting "Guo Jing's Children's Shoes" wears the ancient and modern, and interprets a story of "the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people" in the modern city, and the novel genre is a derivative work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", that is, fan fiction.

Chen Mo also took "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" as an example, modern college students were thunderbolted into the story of the Condor and replaced it with the second male "Yang Kang Children's Shoes", starting a life different from the original work, such a work is also called a fanfiction.

For example, Yang Hu, who has liked to read martial arts novels since he was a child, suddenly had a lot of ideas in his mind, Ouyang Ke, Zhen Zhibing, Song Qingshu, Jiang Yulang, and Wuhua ......

Yang Hu decided that he wanted to change the fate of those villains in classic martial arts novels.

Before he didn't know about fan fiction, Yang Hu really didn't know how to write online articles, but now he knows what fan fiction is, and he seems to have no teacher, and he feels that he can try to create.

Fan fiction has ready-made story backgrounds and characters, and the author does not need to exhaust a lot of brain cells to construct the world background and characters, which is a very suitable type of novel for new authors to practice writing.

Due to the 10,000 grand prize set up by the Fan Fiction Essay Contest, it is now not only newcomers who are eyeing fan fiction, but even old authors are also eyeing fan fiction.

With the "2002 Author Welfare Plan" and "2002 Fan Fiction Essay Contest" being spread and talked about by more and more people, the starting point has not yet come out, and it has been named "wealthy" in the online literature circle.

It is said that "businessmen pursue profits, and they can't afford to be early if they don't make profits", and before they were officially launched, they made the [Author Welfare Plan] and [Fan Fiction Essay Contest] that shook the entire online literature circle, to say that there is no cat behind this, is this possible?

However, the prospects of the online literature industry are still unclear, and the pioneers of the online literature are so poor that they can be said to be still in the stage of feeling the stones and crossing the river, and the capitalists are still waiting to see whether the online literature can become a thriving industry? Is it worth their investment?

Without the capitalists injecting large amounts of money into online articles, it is inevitable that the development will be slow, so unless the online writers in these years can take the physical publishing route, their income will be negative.

It is precisely because of this that the online writers of this year have not yet begun to take shape, and the authors write books online not to make money, but purely out of interest, and they do not regard "online writers" as a profession that can support their families or even make a fortune.

As soon as the "2002 Author Welfare Plan" came out, I dare not say that everyone thinks that "Internet writer" is a good career, at least it makes Internet lovers feel that "Internet writer" may become a good part-time job.

As for the 2002 Fan Fiction Essay Contest, although the 10,000 Grand Prize is impressive, the number of winners is always limited, which is not enough for people to consider "online writer" as a full-time job.

One thing is certain, that is, the vast number of online authors have become the first batch of beneficiaries in the development of the online literature industry!

Of course, the premise is that the "starting point author welfare plan" can be implemented stably in the long term, rather than a flash in the pan.

No, some people have questioned the two small advertisements played at the starting point, regardless of whether the [2002 Starting Point Author Welfare Plan] can be implemented forever? Let's just say that the [2002 Starting Point Fan Fiction Essay Contest] has a total prize of 46,000 yuan, can the starting point really come up with this huge amount of money?

Tens of thousands of yuan are really nothing in the era of the rise of big IP in online literature, but it is really a huge amount of money in the era when more than 99.99% of online authors are zero income, so the starting point is about to open the [2002 Fan Fiction Essay Contest] has attracted widespread attention from people in the industry, which can be described as a stone that stirs up a thousand waves.
