Chapter 143: Youth Literature

"Huang Yifan, what are you busy with these days, except for meal time, I can't see your figure. ”

It was lunch again, Zhang Huiping put two pieces of scratch paper on the table and ate with Huang Yifan.

"I'm busy fighting with literary masters. ”

Huang Yifan said with a slight joking, and picked up the scratch paper that Zhang Huiping put down on the table, "What is this?"

"Fight with the masters of the literary world, Khan, Huang Yifan, can you ban it a little?"

"If you don't believe it, forget it. ”

Huang Yifan said helplessly, glanced at the scratch paper, "My strong heart is like the stars in the night......"

Just after reading a few sentences, Huang Yifan had a spray of rice, "What is this, how can it have a feeling of chicken skin?"

"Guo Cheng's prose. ”

"I said Zhang Huiping, what are you doing by copying Guo Cheng's prose?"

"Didn't you say that there was going to be a reading competition, I was going to read aloud Guo Cheng's The Stars of the Night, how about it, Guo Cheng's The Stars of the Night was well written. ”

"Pit. ”

Huang Yifan burst into tears, "Didn't you say it, it's better not to read Guo Cheng Hanjin's article, and read his aloud." Are you having a brain show, or is your brain in water?"

"But didn't you say you bragging?"

"Uh...... Did I say that?"

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Huiping said confirmatively.

"Oh my God......"

Huang Yifan was a little crazy, "This, this, how can I tell you." Am I a person who likes to brag casually, how is it possible, yesterday I was competing with the masters of the literary world, and I picked out all of them, how could a person with status like me brag. ”

"Look, here we go again. ”

"You ......"

Huang Yifan was helpless, he didn't expect that he would be angry with Zhang Huiping one day.

Wasn't this little girl quite cute before, but now why has something changed?

"Okay, I'm bragging. However, you really don't want to read Guo Cheng's article. So, I'll write one to you, and you'll read it aloud. ”

"Great, here you go. ”

As she spoke, Zhang Huiping handed over paper and pen from her pocket.

"Uh...... How do you carry these things with you?"

Huang Yifan was a little strange and asked.

"This ......"

Zhang Huiping's face was a little red, and she said unnaturally, "Haven't you been training to read aloud recently, and you can also record the training of the day with you with paper and pen." ”

"Yes. ”

Nodding, Huang Yifan took the paper and pen, and wrote it in just over 20 minutes without adding any dots for a while.

"Well, you're going to read it aloud, but don't say I wrote it. ”

……

Mill Tower Press.

"Gao Hong, what have you been doing lately. I'll hand over the entire youth literature section to you, and look at how many Han Jin's books were sold across the country yesterday, 1,000 copies, only 1,000 copies. Are you Guo Cheng a newcomer? If such a number is spread out, I am afraid that it will really be laughed off by other peers. ”

"Ren Changxing", editor-in-chief of Magic Tower Publishing House, took the data table and looked at Gao Hong with a serious face.

"Editor-in-chief, actually, we can't be blamed entirely for this. It's all to blame on the damn autumn water, and as you know, there's been a debate on prose theory in these astronomical circles lately. But it's good to die or not, that Qiushui directly said that the current prose is disease-free and moaning, which has no meaning at all. Moreover, he also used his theory to defeat a well-known scholar in the literary world. And because of an article he wrote, in the end, many readers abandoned their previous prose works. Han Jin's previous essays and essays have always sold well, but this time they were just hit by the fish pond. ”

Moreover, Editor-in-Chief Ren, this time it was not only Han Jin's works that were cold, but Guo Cheng's works were also ignored for a while. All of this is a good thing that the autumn water did. ”

"I don't care what autumn water is, I just want results. Gao Hong, the publishing house has only one profit. That is to publish best-selling works, Han Jin is a representative of youth literature, if this signboard is smashed, do you know what the consequences are?"

"Editor-in-chief, don't worry. I've already consulted with Han Jin and asked him to launch a new work of youth literature. However, this time instead of writing essays, he wrote novels, campus novels, which is also the genre that Han Jin is best at. ”

"Okay, you can arrange it yourself. However, I hope there will be no surprises this time. ”

……

"Finally up to 5 stars. ”

After class, Huang Yifan entered the official website of Chinese writers, and after searching, he found that the pen name Qiushui had risen to 5 stars.

This made Huang Yifan a little surprised.

Ji Ziping is right, the fight can really improve the star rating.

It seems that there will be a few more fights like this in the future.

It's just that, although he said so, Huang Yifan also knew that it was unlikely.

Although battles break out from time to time in the literary world, they are all small-scale scolding battles, and they can't rise to much level. This kind of controversy that has caused the whole of Chinese prose genre is sometimes not once in ten years. Therefore, Huang Yifan's plan to rely on this kind of struggling to ascend to the star can be imagined, but he may not be able to touch it.

However, 5 stars is already good, and Huang Yifan is also more satisfied.

Later, Huang Yifan checked the rights, obligations and benefits of 5-star writers.

I found that it was something that I wasn't very interested in, so I skipped it and didn't read it.

Closed the official website of Chinese writers, and at this time, Hongdou, the editor of the New Moon Publishing House on TT, sent a message.

"Fanchen, your A Chinese Ghost Story has done well, and has sold 500,000 copies. ”

"Wow, so fast, didn't you just sell 400,000 copies before, and in just a few days, another 100,000 copies have been sold. ”

"Heh, I can only say that on the one hand, your work is good, and on the other hand, we have increased the publicity and promotion of your work. Of course, there's another aspect, and that's your luck. ”

"Good luck, what do you say?"

"Recently, there has been a prose theory war in the literary world, have you heard of this?"

"I've seen it in the newspapers, but what does my novel have to do with the Chinese prose war?"

"It doesn't matter. What do you think, why did the war of prose theory in China start? Wasn't it because that Qiushui scolded a writer of youth literature named Nianhua? Then, the prose war broke out. Traditionalists believe that prose should have no theme, that is, like the prose written by Guo Cheng Hanjin. But Qiushui said that prose should follow the form of scattering and gathering spirits. In the end, Qiushui defeated many famous masters with the strength of one person. And with a back, the previous essays without a theme were completely swept out of the market. Guo Cheng and Han Jin are the representatives of youth prose works, and this time, affected by the prose theory war, their prose will not sell in an instant. ”

"I see. You mean, their prose doesn't sell. But readers still want to read books, so they can't help but buy my book A Chinese Ghost Story?"

"Haha, smart. ”

"I didn't expect that I had such luck. ”

Huang Yifan smiled, this is the benefit generated after his own fight.

It seems that this one will have to be pinched in the future, and maybe, when will I help myself.

"Congratulations, congratulations. ”

"Rejoice, rejoice. ”

The two congratulated each other.

"But, mortal giant, there's something I have to ask you?"

"What's the matter?"

"To take your new book a step further, we're going to hold a book signing session for you in ten cities across the country, what do you think?"

"Sorry, I didn't have time for this. ”

Huang Yifan directly refused.

The starting point training camp is just that, although the age is young, but the authors of online novels are generally not very old. The fact that teenagers wrote online novels has long been reported in the media. Therefore, Huang Yifan does not have much psychological pressure. However, this is not the case with entities. For the time being, Huang Yifan is not ready, and at the same time, Huang Yifan does not want to cause too much controversy after his appearance. He doesn't want to be an entertainment writer like "Guo Cheng" and "Han Jin", he just wants to hide in the corner and write.

"If you think about it again, you also know that most readers still like the author of the work. If you can come, you can increase the sales of your new book quite a bit. Moreover, the recent suppression of youth prose is the time when A Chinese Ghost Story strikes vigorously. If you don't work hard at this time, after Guo Cheng and Han Jin's new book comes out, it is estimated that A Chinese Ghost Story will be squeezed again. ”

"Oh, are the two of them going to launch a new book again?"

"Yes, Guo Cheng and Han Jin have always been the leaders of the youth literature genre, and at the same time, they are also more able to grasp the tastes of youth readers, and they are very popular in the market. Although your Chinese ghost story is also well written, it is a supernatural work in the end, and it is too niche to be compared with youth literature. Without taking this opportunity, it would be difficult for A Chinese Ghost Story to break through the sales figure of 1 million copies. ”

Hongdou made sense, Huang Yifan nodded a little, but suddenly had an idea in his heart, "In this case, Hongdou, you say, how about I also write a work of youth literature?"
