Chapter 128: Expansion
Wei Shihan's words made the whole group quiet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After a long time, Long Qu replied: "Brother Wei's joke...... It scared me. ”
Xiao Duan also replied: "Yes, I was also shocked. But then again, I really hope it's true. ”
"This is indeed true, I don't believe you asked Cangyue. Seeing that the two of them didn't believe it, Wei Shihan said.
Seeing that what Wei Shihan said was solemn and did not seem to be fake, Long Qu hesitated for a while before he was about to tap on the keyboard, but saw Xiao Duan speak: "Cangyue, what Wei Shihan said is true?" So he stopped and waited for Cangyue's answer.
There are many people who are looking forward to Cangyue's answer like him.
Speaking of which, Cangyue and most of the people in it don't know each other. She is not the author of "Jianghu Night Talk", although she has been posting here, she has very little communication with everyone. In addition, there was no Q group before, and it was not convenient for writers to contact each other. So there are only a few people who have communicated with her, such as Longqu Xiaoduan.
Later, although she joined the QQ group, a delicate-minded woman couldn't find any common language in a group that was basically rough people, and basically never spoke.
But that doesn't stop her popularity. Admittedly, it's all about gender. There are too few beautiful authors in the martial arts world, and there are even fewer who write well.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, Cangyue's ID jumped into the dialog box again: "Yes, Editor-in-Chief Xu invited me to come over as editor-in-chief a few days ago. Originally, I was still thinking about it, but after listening to your words, I decided to accept the invitation. ”
It's true. Long Qu didn't have the psychology to understand the ridicule in Cangyue's words, he only had one thought in his heart, "Jianghu Night Talk" finally made a big move again, and martial arts was really going to rise.
Although he is only an author, he is not the kind of nerd who only knows how to write. I know the current situation of martial arts very well, and I am also very heartbroken. It's not that he's worried about the country and the people, but that the shrinking martial arts market directly affects his economic interests, can he not care.
In his opinion, the decline of martial arts is certainly due to a lack of creativity and a lack of banner figures. But it also has something to do with the fact that the forces are too scattered.
Take a look at other people's online novels, the resources are basically concentrated on the website of Dianniang, and the others are all petty fights. But even those small websites, following Dianniang are also full of brains.
Looking at the martial arts world, I was already on the verge of surviving, and I didn't know how to unite and work together. It's not that magazines compete with each other for resources, but he would be happy if that were the case.
The real situation now is that there are only three martial arts magazines left, except for "Jianghu Night Talk", the other two exist in name only.
What he means is that martial arts authors are too unfocused. Many martial arts authors have other jobs, and writing martial arts is just a matter of hand. There are also a large number of authors who write martial arts and other themes in addition to writing.
Cangyue is the best example, her main job is in the Planning and Design Institute, writing martial arts is just a hobby, in addition to writing martial arts, she will also write fantasy and other types of novels. Later, I went to Zhike magazine as the editor-in-chief, and I spent less energy on martial arts.
Everyone has limited energy, how can it be possible to create excellent martial arts novels with too many distractions? The quality and quantity can't afford it, how can martial arts not decline.
Of course, he also understands that everyone is not to blame. They are all lay people in the world, and they all have to eat. There are very few people who really don't want fame, don't seek profit, and only create for love. The martial arts market is shrinking, and no one can make money from the works that have been created so hard, who doesn't find another way.
Fortunately, there was a Zhu Ziqing. He lived up to his name as the first genius, and as soon as he made a move, he was a new style, single-handedly containing the carriage that kept going backwards.
"Jianghu Night Talk" was acquired by Silian Publishing House, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart. Jianghu Newspaper Group is already in the twilight, and their "Jianghu Night Talk" can't even maintain the current market, let alone develop.
Silian Publishing House is an emerging large-scale publishing group with a deep background. This publishing house also has a close relationship with Zhu Ziqing. The magazine will only develop better under their banner.
So he has been very active during this time, and he is looking forward to the new management team to carry out drastic reforms of the magazine. But after waiting for so many days, there is still no movement, and I can't ask the editor who knows me well.
Could it be that Silian Publishing House and Zhu Ziqing had no way to change the status quo? He couldn't help but have such thoughts.
Later, driven by several novels by Zhu Ziqing, the sales of "Jianghu Night Talk" soared to one million, and he was not very happy, nor was he as optimistic as others.
Because this is purely the result of Zhu Ziqing's own popularity, not the charm of martial arts itself. Once Zhu Ziqing loses interest in martial arts one day, everything will be beaten back to the original state. If Zhu Ziqing is a pure martial arts novel author, it's okay, but the problem is that he is not.
Every time he thought of this, Longqu was anxious, but there was no way to do it.
And now that "Jianghu Night Talk" is finally moving, how can he not be happy. Although he only invited Cangyue to be the editor-in-chief, in his opinion, this is the beginning of change.
For a while, Long Qu had mixed feelings in his heart, with bitterness, relief, and excitement...... Is martial arts finally going to rise?
The mind of Longqu is unknown to others, and most of the authors do not have as many ideas as him. Hearing Cang Yue's words, a group of rough men suddenly boiled.
"Goddess Cangyue, what you said is true?"
"Don't deceive people......"
"Kneel, I strongly request to change to the name of Cangyue. ”
"Broken Knife Guest, you are not afraid that Editor-in-Chief Liu will give you small shoes. ”
"The goddess begged for a cover. ”
"I didn't expect what Wei Shihan said to be true, I hadn't heard anything about such a big thing before. Also, Wei Shihan, don't you claim to be blind to things outside the window and concentrate on creation? Why are you better informed than me?" Xiao Duan said in surprise.
"Editor-in-Chief Xu contacted me and asked me to talk about Lechuan's tone and see if he would like to come to "Jianghu Night Talk". At that time, he told me to contact Cangyue. He replied.
Seeing that the great god was talking about business, the other authors fell silent. They also want to hear gossip and learn more about the activities of the magazine. They all eat here together, and every move of the magazine can be related to the interests of everyone.
"Lethe, what did he say?" Seeing the name, Long Qu confirmed his thoughts even more.
There are good deeds who selected the new four heroes of martial arts, Longqu, Wei Shihan, Xiaoduan and Lechuan. Among them, Longqu, Wei Shihan, and Xiaoduan were all cultivated by "Jianghu Night Talk". Lechuan became famous in "Martial Arts Story".
The development of martial arts stories is worse, and the loss of authors is more serious, all supported by Lethe. But it was difficult to support it alone, and in 09 it was forced to stop the long-form serialization to seek other ways out, but the situation was not optimistic. I heard that even short and medium-length stories are going to be stopped in the near future, so it can be said that it is close to going out of business.
"Jianghu Night Talk" has successively dug up Cangyue and Lechuan, and must be ready to make a big move.
He agreed, and now the two sides are negotiating terms. He replied.
"Lethe is here too? Cangyue replied.
"yes. However, it is good that our strength is already weak, and we can develop better when we concentrate it. Xiao Duan also saw the joints in it.
"As soon as Lechuan came, the new four heroes of martial arts were all gathered. At home, Cangyue, a representative of romance and martial arts, seems to have a big move in "Jianghu Night Talk". Black Man said.
"Yes, yes, Brother Blackman's words won my heart. But can you fix your typo, it's too embarrassing, it's still the author. Sheng Baiyi didn't forget to tease his peers.
"I don't know that I also invited those martial arts masters, I'm really looking forward to it. ”
"Yes, I seem to see hope for the rise of martial arts. ”
"The rise of martial arts, I didn't expect me to really see this day. ”
“……”
"The rise of martial arts is a good thing, but the gathering of all the famous artists is not good news for us street writers. At this time, suddenly an author poured a basin of cold water on everyone.
The others were not stupid, and they immediately understood.
"Yes, the capacity of the magazine is limited, and now that there are few authors, we can still eat with a mouthful. Where are the famous people coming, there is still our place. ”
"I know what I'm doing. The writing is not good, the plot is not grasped, and it is all dependent on the magazine to take care of it to barely eat. With so many famous people coming at once, I guess I'm going to say goodbye to everyone. ”
"I'm in a similar situation, crying ......"
“……”
Everyone who was originally happy suddenly became worried, and it was about their own interests, who could be happy. Longqu, Xiaoduan, and Wei Shihan became very embarrassed, and they didn't know what to say.
"Huh...... Don't worry, everyone. Martial arts can come to this day, it is inseparable from everyone's efforts and dedication, how could the magazine abandon everyone. I heard Editor-in-Chief Xu say that our magazine will expand its capacity next, and it seems that it is tentatively to add one long story and four short and medium story positions. It will be put into trial operation next month, and if the response is good, it will be revised. At this time, Cangyue stood up.
"Really?"
"Goddess Cang, don't deceive people. ”
"I'll just say, how can the magazine not ask us. ”
"One long story and four short stories are five positions. Moreover, it is not easy to create martial arts novels, and it is even more difficult to write excellent ones, and it is impossible for famous artists to serialize their works in every issue. In this way, we have more opportunities than before. ”
"That's ...... you say."
"We're worried......
Cangyue's explanation immediately resolved everyone's troubles. No one thought that she would tell a lie at this time, that would be too stupid.
A group of rough men in the group were originally enthusiastic about Cangyue, just out of curiosity about their gender differences. Now I am a little more grateful.
"Cangyue is really our lucky star, and it will bring such a big surprise as soon as it comes. ”
"Yes, you will be my goddess after the moon is big. ”
"Goddess, begging for support will warm the bed. ”
"I like to read the goddess's novels the most, it's so exciting. ”
"Me too, I must see every issue, I can't stop...... Of course, it would be nice if it didn't abuse the Lord. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, it's not good to call it an abuser. That's called reader abuse...... Every time I read her novels, I am abused, don't want it......"
A group of rough men soon crooked the building to 108,000 miles away. (To be continued.) )
