Perhaps because of efficiency, the Mirror is quick to publish micro-novels, but slow to contact authors. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When everyone on Weibo began to cheer for Lin Han and celebrate, the email from there was late.

The British did not expect that the competition held by their newspaper turned out to be that it belonged to a Chinese, and they won both the first and third places, which was completely a slap in the face.

But they haven't said anything yet, the quality of the novels of "God Dying" and "The Last Earthling" can stand the test of time and word of mouth, so they just complain one by one.

Almost all domestic Weibo is happy with Lin Han, although it is not a heavyweight award, and the award is not Lin Han's best science fiction, but it is also an award after all.

The well-known bloggers "Those Things in the UK" and "British Newspaper Sister" basically released some news related to the UK, and now they are starting to report it.

"Today the blogger saw a familiar name in the Mirror, Han-Lin. There is no doubt that he is Lin Han, the science fiction writer who wrote "Country Teacher" and "I, Robot". However, he quietly won the championship of this miniature novel essay competition, and the three words "God is dying" really shocked the people of the corrupt country, and the following is the evaluation of some netizens on Twitter, win glory for the country! ”

For netizens with advanced lazy cancer, this kind of door-to-door screenshot is the most convenient and trouble-free, although you can directly go to Twitter, but you have to look for them one by one, it is better to see the blogger's summary.

So in these screenshots, the blogger also intimately translated the speech of Twitter netizens in Chinese, which is completely convenient for everyone.

“omg！ God is dying, this is so scary to write, this must not be true! ”

"In the morning, my mother lost her temper when she saw the newspaper, and she said that God will never die. But I think it's a great way to write, it's not a matter of faith, and I don't have the right to report anything. ”

"I never thought that a novel could be written so short, but I still prefer the latter story, the last earthling, why is he the only one left? If there was a war or a virus, why did he survive? Can anyone tell me. ”

"It's wonderful, Han-Lin is such a genius author, I just finished reading his "I, Robot", which is only available on Amazon and is on sale!"

"Who knows more of Han-lin's novels, I feel like I like this author."

"I think the third place is better written, more divergent, and may lose more words."

……

The praise of Twitter netizens made Weibo netizens feel a sense of pride, see it, let's just send a science fiction writer over to sweep your corrupt literary world.

So they were all very excited, this feeling of honor was very good, and there were originally some sunspots who wanted to express some different opinions, but they were all scared by the praise on this screen.

Whether it's five cents or cents, they all shut up at this time, rare good things can't be mixed casually, you can see such good news on the first day of the new year, and everything will be good for the whole year ahead.

When he opened the email sent by the Mirror, Lin Han was quite surprised, and the other party asked Lin Han to send his bank account number, and he would complete the conversion of the after-tax bonus within a week.

What makes him most happy is that because of the first place, he can publish one of his novels in the Mirror Newspaper within one month from now.

Publishing a short story directly in one of the UK's most widely circulated newspapers was a welcome relief for Lin Han, who was in desperate need of fame.

Didn't Random House just bully him before and he didn't have a reputation abroad?

Now, with an essay of dozens of words, Lin Han took the lead in opening up the situation in the UK, but it is not known what novel will be published, he has to go back and think about it.

There are a lot of short science fiction novels in the English version, and since they are going to be released, they naturally have to find a good one. And this is not a blind publication, but to cooperate with the publication of your own book.

Most people who like to read newspapers love traditional reading, so the popularity of "I, Robot" on Amazon has not been enough to spread the news, and now this is the source of combining the two.

After sending the bank account number and relevant information, Lin Han expressed his gratitude in it, and wanted to postpone the release of the novel for a while.

Now he doesn't have a short story that he has already written, so he has to wait for Chen Jiaxuan to come back after the Spring Festival holiday to discuss the problem together.

However, contrary to Lin Han's expectations, Amazon's staff called again, but this time it was not Random House that wanted to video chat with Lin Han, but the British headquarters of Penguin, the largest publishing group in the English-speaking world, and five large publishing groups in the United States, including FSG Publishing Group, Thor Publishing Company, and St. Martin's Company, which are known as the "Nobel Prize for Literature Queen's Publishing House".

"Are you sure so many publishers are looking for me?"

Lin Han was very surprised, he had just rejected the "kindness" of Random House some time ago, and now his piece of shining gold was finally found by a discerning person.

And there are five of them, and no one will believe it.

Amazon's staff wasn't surprised at all, "You deserve it, I hope you can have a nice chat." ”

"Thanks, but why don't you have your own Amazon publishing company?" This is a small problem for Lin Han, Amazon is engaged in electronic reading, but this group also has subsidiaries that have transformed into traditional publishing.

After all, backed by Amazon, there are many writers who take the electronic publishing route are potential stocks, and Amazon Publishing can be given priority to get in touch.

The staff member smiled and said, "I did come to inquire before, but they didn't pay attention to it after they heard that Random House had found you. I thought you would cooperate with Random House, but I didn't expect the cooperation to be reached. ”

Hearing this, Lin Han couldn't help laughing, it is easy to say that these publishing groups have competition, and it is convenient for them to raise their prices.

Even if they extend their olive branch, they don't necessarily have to accept it all, and they have to take enough benefits for themselves.

It's just that he is more hesitant, and now he will start work on the first day of the Lunar New Year and find Chen Jiaxuan to help.
