Chapter 4: The Heart of a King
In just two days, the number of hits of "Sword and Demon Otherworld" climbed to two million, and He Qin finally understood why the early online novels were only a few hundred thousand words. There are millions of hits at every turn, and this is an era when there are more monks and less porridge.
For readers, "Sword and Demon Otherworld" is like fragrant pork belly, eager to rush up, using both hands and feet, especially when I learned that there was no physical version of the book, I cut off all thoughts, and could only honestly sit in front of the computer and wait for the daily update.
The heart of the king, whose real name is Wang Xin, is an active critic of the East Road, a famous martial arts editor, and a publisher.
Martial arts are in decline, but there are so many people who still persist and work hard for the recovery of martial arts, and the heart of the king is one of them.
Any wind and grass on the East Road can't escape his ears, and he is also one of the readers of "Sword and Demon Otherworld", this is a martial arts novel that is completely beyond his imagination, the protagonist is no longer a traditional martial arts or a teenager, or a youth, nor a martial arts novice, but a long-established martial arts master, no national hatred, no family hatred, the hatred of killing his father and destroying the clan, the meaning of Dugu's existence may only be to dominate the world, only to seek defeat.
Xuanyuan Continent, martial arts and the country compete with each other, the peak of force can break the water and open the mountain, shatter the void, a martial arts novel that subverts all the previous routines, which makes him excited, I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that "Sword and Demon Otherworld" has some familiar flavor.
"Lao Feng, have you read "Sword and Demon Otherworldly"?" Sitting in front of the computer, he flipped through "Sword and Demon Otherworld" many times, Wang Xin took out his mobile phone and pressed a number.
"Of course I did, it's so exciting...... Still, you shouldn't be so bored looking for me. A familiar voice came from the phone.
Wang Xin smiled, "Of course, looking for a favor from you, I need the contact information of Dugu to seek defeat." ”
There was a moment of silence on the phone: "Wait for my news." ”
Hanging up the phone, Wang Xin smiled bitterly, in Xia Kingdom, it is illegal to probe other people's privacy without permission, but "Sword and Demon Otherworld" is too exciting, I hope Dugu will not blame himself for defeat.
Lao Feng quickly sent Dugu's contact information, but there was only one TT account, and there was a screenshot, showing that Dugu's account had only been registered for a few days.
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, Wang Xin opened the search, entered He Qin's TT number, a swordsman in black, the avatar is a lonely swordsman, and sure enough, he is a martial arts person, and he enters his nickname in the application friend information.
The words "Heart of the King" have a lot of weight in the martial arts circle, but unfortunately, this time it is destined to be disappointed.
Although TT is the most popular instant messaging software in China, with 300 million users, He Qin, an outsider, has no concept of these two letters, and still lives in the rented house of his girlfriend in Donghai Province who has not yet met, creating the world of "Sword and Demon Otherworld".
For an hour, two hours, a day, the heart of the king did not wait for the news that He Qin agreed to the friend application.
"Congratulations to the master, "Sword and Demon Otherworld" has more than three million hits on the East Road, and your number of fans on the East Road has reached 100,000. Zhao Ling'er's voice suddenly sounded in his mind, He Qin was stunned for a moment, he hadn't heard the voice of this girl for a few days, and he had forgotten it.
He Qin said to this girl in his mind, "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome, I would like to remind you that you have a new friend request for your TT account that may be able to help you with your mission. ”
"TT, friend application, I don't seem to be logged in, you can see it. ”
This is the message sent by the system. ”
Logging in to TT, He ordered to open a friend to apply for "King's Heart, this nickname sounds really familiar." ”
Click agree, He Qin opened the six-degree search and typed in the words "Heart of the King".
Looking at the search results, He Qin finally understood why he was so familiar, and the famous martial arts master Tie Pestle was discovered by this person.
The heart of the king, a famous martial arts person, publisher, and the publishing house under his name, Qixia Publishing House, has a great reputation in the martial arts circle, which can be said to be thunderous.
The scale of Qixia Publishing House is not large, at its peak, it was only ranked in the publishing industry in more than 20 places, and the reason why it is thunderous is because while other publishing houses have shifted their main publishing direction to the most popular romance novels, Qixia Publishing House still regards martial arts as its main business.
Today, when martial arts have fallen, Qixia Publishing House has become the last guarantee for martial arts creators, especially Iron Pestle, when he was young and down, it was because of the help of the heart of the king that he realized the first martial arts novel that sold more than one million in his life.
It's a pity that the decline of martial arts has not improved much because of the heart of the king, but because most of the martial arts novels published by Qixia Publishing House have dismal sales, and the income is getting smaller and smaller, relying on the iron pestle, the famous martial arts master, to survive.
A businessman with ideals, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time, and martial arts declined.
"Hello, Master Dugu. Only half an hour later, He Qin received news from this famous publisher.
"Hello. ”
"I'm Wang Xin, the nickname on the East Road is the heart of the king, everyone calls me the heart of the emperor, this time I came to you to discuss the publication of "Sword and Demon Otherworld", you said on East Road that "Sword and Demon Otherworld" has not been published, is it true?"
Publishing, if you really want to fall asleep, someone sent a pillow, and it also explains the excitement of "Sword and Demon Otherworld" from the side "Yes, "Sword and Demon Otherworld" has not signed a contract with any publishing house. ”
"Great, Master Dugu, I want to sign a contract with you to publish this novel, I wonder if you are willing?"
Looking at Wang Xin's straightforwardness, He Qin scratched his head, "But there are not many words in "Sword and Demon Otherworld"!" In the Xia Kingdom, the first printing of a novel is generally two to four volumes, that is, more than 180,000 words.
"Then how many words have you saved?" Wang Xin did not understand He Qin's words.
"Five thousand words. He Qin simply reported the manuscript of "Sword and Demon Otherworld", which is the number of words in today's code.
If it weren't for the 5,000 words clearly written on the screen, Wang Xin would definitely think that he had read it wrong, 5,000 words, not 50,000 words, what is the difference between it and not having a manuscript, but his eyes immediately became eager, he could update 10,000 words a day, but the quality did not decline, this is a very creative genius writer.
"Master Dugu, I have a reluctant request...... I would like to meet with you to discuss the publication of Sword and Demon Otherworld. Wang Xin put the price that was originally set in his heart into death row, that is a super excellent martial arts writer, and may even be comparable to a martial arts master who worships the moon and pours his sword.
When they met, He Qin didn't know what Wang Xin really thought, but he still reported his address.
