"Fantasy Age" and "Science Fiction World" were founded around the same time, but the two went to diametrically opposite destinies. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When "Science Fiction World" sold more than one million copies a month and won the title of best-selling magazine, the once brilliant "Fantasy Age" could only quietly stop publishing and stay in the memory of readers forever.

Li Wenyuan also sighed, he first wrote science fiction novels published in "Fantasy Age", and he was regarded as an author who went out from here, and now Bole has ceased publication.

"This is also something that cannot be helped, we can't just stay in the glory of yesterday, we still have to seek change. Magazines are like this, and we who write novels must also sound the alarm bell, so as not to be eliminated by readers. ”

Although reading is becoming more and more popular, readers' tastes have also become tricky, and ordinary novels are hardly of interest, and only good quality novels can achieve higher sales.

The rest of the authors nodded in agreement, although it is now easy to publish books, it is difficult to get higher sales, and the book sales pyramid structure is very solid.

Lin Han opened his mouth and said: "Don't worry too much, I think now is the best era of science fiction, don't you think that the sales of science fiction are actually gradually increasing? Although martial arts novels have always been strong, the current sales are already worse than before, and the post-90s and post-00s have proven themselves as new purchasing power." ”

Many fantasy novels are teenagers' books, and teenagers have become the strongest purchasing power in the book market, whether it is Jiangnan's "Dragon Family" or Xuanse's "Dumb House" have captured this group of readers.

"Seriously, there are still not many young people watching science fiction now, and real hard science fiction is more difficult to absorb, I did a big data survey, and young people only account for about 30% of my readers. ”

A man with glasses spoke, pushing his fingers against the frame of his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then sat quietly and said nothing.

Li Wenyuan smiled, he said: "Science fiction is a genre that covers a wide range, from middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties and sixties to teenagers in their teens, all of whom are our target readers, so the proportion of young people is relatively low." ”

……

Lin Han is not a theoretician, he only knows that if he is poor, he will think about change, and it is impossible to use his set of things forever, and writers must adapt to the development of the times.

After chatting here until the evening, everyone had a meal together and went home.

"I actually knew the news of the closure of "Fantasy Times" for a long time, and now my mind is a little confused, and I have an urge to buy this magazine and do it myself, what do you think of this idea?"

Lin Han in the co-pilot seat was startled, he leaned back for a moment, and then said: "I'm dizzy, mosquito, how much you can't think about it before you want to be this pick-up man." It's a fire pit, and if you jump into it, you'll die. ”

Li Wenyuan said while driving: "I also know that there may be many problems here, but starting a magazine has always been what I want to do the most. Now that I have a magazine in front of me, it's much better to buy a magazine outright than to recreate it, at least the book number and issue number can be kept. ”

Lin Han didn't know what was wrong with his friend, he actually wanted to transform from a writer, others only thought of being his boss after being an editor-editor-editor-editor-in-chief, but he was a science fiction writer who actually wanted to start a magazine.

If it were another writer, Lin Han would have thrown away a sentence of neurosis, isn't this a head twitch?

"Do you know that magazines basically burn money, especially this kind of magazine that has been decided to cease publication. In other words, do you know how a magazine should be run? How many employees to hire, how to receive articles, how to print and sell, how to market, you don't let your feelings overwhelm your reason. ”

Running a magazine is not a game, Lin Han thought that Li Wenyuan was just occupied by feelings.

But Li Wenyuan knew very well that he had thought it through, he sighed, opened the car window, and let the cold wind blow in.

"I'm very sober now, and now I can take out more than 10 million dollars, and I can hire an editor-in-chief or something for professional management, and I don't participate in specific management, but I have the right to decide on the content or something. We also need to think carefully about our marketing strategy, and this is certainly not a one-time acquisition, and I have to be prepared in all aspects. ”

The cold wind was biting, Lin Han directly pulled the zipper of his clothes to the highest, and he replied angrily: "We are just writers, and more than 10 million is your manuscript fee for so many years." ”

Li Wenyuan smiled, "You also know that it's just the manuscript fee, if I lose it all, it's a big deal that I will write a novel again." Anyway, if I don't fall, I will have a chance to start over. ”

Since the main owner said so, Lin Han didn't have much to say, because he didn't know how the magazine should be acquired and operated.

The overall positioning, content positioning, reader positioning, and advertising positioning of the magazine all need to be carefully planned, as well as the magazine's market operation model and future business direction.

One of the most important factors in whether a magazine can be recognized by consumers is the style of the editor and the characteristics of the board, so staffing, recruitment and training are the top priorities.

Suddenly, Lin Han's mind flashed a "celebrity" on the earth, Guo Xiaosi, his life is like a metamorphosis, a teenager became famous and became a writer of the new youth novel, but then he fell into plagiarism doubts.

Guo Xiaosi, who likes to look up at the sky at 45 degrees, became more and more scolded, and directly changed from the author to the author's boss, successively established a studio and a cultural communication company, and built "The Smallest Story" into a "dream factory" of domestic youth literature.

Li Wenyuan's approach may be similar to Guo Xiaosi, Lin Han just hopes that "Fantasy Age" can be like "The Smallest Story", even if it can't be the best, don't let Li Wenyuan lose too much.

A science fiction writer who runs to make a magazine, if Li Wenyuan's readers know about it, how would it feel?

Is it happy or regretful, touched or uncomfortable?

I also saw everyone's comments in the book review area, science fiction movies will definitely be written, but I will write them step by step, lest I can't write the novel after writing five or six hundred thousand words.

Many books are cool in the early stage, and then the eunuch leaves after 500,000 words, and the author wants to write more words, so he must be cautious in the control of the plot.
