Chapter 92 Invitation to Share
"Science Fiction World" is the leader of science fiction classification, and it can be said that many science fiction authors became famous from here, and then went to a broader publishing world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's just that in fantasy magazines, it's nothing, and the sales of just one million are only in the middle and upper reaches, fantasy, magic, and fantasy are all better than science fiction.
Chen Chuhe also heard some rumors, but he didn't know the specific situation, but he still had to win it over, so he asked: "Mr. Lin, it is said that "The Martian" is about to be published, have you ever thought of serializing it in our magazine?"
The change in identity can be seen from a person's title, once just called Lin Han, but now they have become Teacher Lin.
Although Lin Han's cooperation with "Science Fiction World" is relatively pleasant, compared to his friends, he still has to take care of his friends, not to mention that he has a good reason.
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry, I've already set a magazine serialization here, and I can't put it on "Science Fiction World" for the time being. β
Chen Chuhe sighed in his heart, he secretly said that it was not good, so he guessed and asked: "It's okay, it's okay, this time we are lagging behind, and there will be a chance in the future." Can you tell me which magazine it is? Fantasy 1+1, or Fiction, Joy or Fantasy?"
The names of these magazines he mentioned are relatively famous, and if Lin Han is science fiction, these places can be visited.
However, Lin Han shook his head and said into his mobile phone: "Brother Chen, I can't tell you the name of the magazine for the time being, but it will definitely surprise you, and it will probably cause a shock when the time comes." β
Li Wenyuan's entry into "Fantasy Era" has not yet been exposed, Lin Han doesn't know how many people still know, anyway, he can't expose it from his mouth, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble.
"Are there more mainstream magazines such as People's Literature and Novels? Chen Chuhe obviously misunderstood what Lin Han meant, he thought it would be a more famous magazine.
"That's not it, you'd be surprised. Besides, "Science Fiction World" is still serializing "I, Robot" every month, and if it is to be serialized from December last year to August this year, and then serialize "The Martian", it is not that one-fifth of the entire magazine is occupied by me, which is not very good. β
Although "I, Robot" has been published and sold for nearly two months, the serialization progress of "Science Fiction World" is not fast, and there is a fixed chapter every month, which steadily helps Lin Han attract readers.
These are all novels with a lot of words, not the kind of short stories of one or two thousand words, which are nearly seven or eight pages long each time.
Being reminded by Lin Han like this, Chen Chuhe reacted, he was too anxious to forget such a simple thing.
Normally, two works by the same writer would not appear in a magazine, and he exclaimed, "Look at my broken memory, forget about it, or I'll have to make a joke." By the way, when will "The Martian" be put on sale, our editorial department is still discussing it often, and I want to know how you can save a person from Mars. β
"It's almost over, I'll send you a copy in advance when the time comes, and you have to use SF Express to pay. β
"It would be nice to have an autograph, and I took it home for my son to see, and he loves science fiction now. β
Lin Han's mobile phone flashed slightly, and the battery was in a hurry, so he hurriedly said: "Science fiction should start with dolls." Brother Chen, I made a call on my mobile phone for an afternoon, and it ran out of battery immediately, next time I have something to contact, you can also find me on QQ. β
"Go ahead, I know someone is going to call you just this moment. β
Just hung up the phone, Lin Han's mobile phone was gloriously turned off, and the whole world was cleared.
Obviously, I was going to check the information here, but I answered all the calls in the afternoon, and the work was not carried out at all, which was a waste of time.
Packing up his things, Lin Han simply applied for a national library online search account, so that he could find some materials in the library's electronic resources, and he even wanted to go to the online library in the United States to check it.
At this time, it happened to be the evening rush hour, the subway was overcrowded, and the entire carriage was full of people, like canned sardines, Lin Han couldn't turn around if he wanted to, there was almost no gap.
However, the air flow inside the earth is not good, it looks extremely dull, and the flashing billboards outside make him feel a little dazzled, and the whole person can't help but start thinking about it, thinking of the death train for a while, and a terrifying subway for a while.
Finally managed to get out of the subway station, Lin Han felt that his whole body had turned into a piece of paper, he collapsed on his sofa, and after resting for a while, he plugged his phone into the data cable and began to charge.
But now he doesn't want to turn on the phone, and even considers whether to change his personal phone number, if he has been harassed like this for a long time, how can he have the energy to write a novel!
Lin Han didn't have the heart to eat at this time, he turned on the computer, and the friend who slipped on QQ added an application, he could only click on one and ignore them all, obviously there was an agent who wanted to come to him.
However, he instantly saw several messages from Li Wenyuan, "Why is your phone turned off, are there many people who are harassing you?"
"I have an important matter for you here, please reply if you see it"
ββ¦β¦β
Lin Han turned his QQ into long-term invisibility, and he replied with an expression, [Difficult Online] .jpg
Li Wenyuan quickly replied: "I wanted to look for you in the afternoon, but it turned out that you turned off the phone, you must have received a lot of calls, right?"
"Yes, my phone is out of battery and it's still charging. What are you looking for from me?"
"I just want to ask, I'm going to set up a cultural company to run Fantasy Times magazine, are you interested in taking a stake?"
This stopped Lin Han, did he want to be a shareholder? Of course he thought subconsciously, but this company seemed to be a little unreliable, and he didn't have much money to come up with.
Li Wenyuan saw Lin Han's hesitation, and he continued to type and said: "You don't have to worry about the problem of management, the company will have a special manager and editor-in-chief, and I will be responsible for being the mascot and faΓ§ade, and use this old face to attract people to write books in the magazine." β
"I think the most important thing is to write a good novel, if you publish a book in a magazine, your readers alone can hold up half the sky. β
In the past, the sales of "Fantasy Era" were only 12,000 a month, and with such a small sales, naturally no advertisers were willing to advertise, and the manuscript fee was too high, and the author was even more reluctant to come.
Li Wenyuan, as a sci-fi giant, his readers haven't seen a new work for almost a year, and if he publishes it now, the attention will definitely not be low.
"My new book is prepared for this time, but when it comes to publication, it's better for the two of us to stagger so as not to rob each other of the market. β
The share of science fiction is so small, Lin Han and Li Wenyuan are both shouldering the heavy responsibility of expanding the territory, if the two of them kill each other, it will not be a good thing for the entire science fiction novel.
"You don't have to worry too much about writers, I've already contacted five or six top writers, and I'll start accepting submissions as soon as the company is formed. Now I want to make the company more rigorous, a total of 10 million yuan of original share capital, I can come up with 8 million, if you want, 2 million, accounting for 20%. β
2 million is not a small number for Lin Han, he has to exchange pounds and dollars for RMB to have more than 3 million, and he will take out most of his assets to gamble at once, so he can't be careless.
"I'm going to know what you're going to do. "Lin Han is not short of money, he has so many classic novels, as long as his memory is still there, he can always make money, what if this company can make money.
