Chapter 39 Potential Signing
Unconsciously, many days passed, and Lehi was a little depressed with one hand on his cheek.
Seeing that his novel was gradually approaching 40,000 words, he didn't even wait to sign a contract.
It stands to reason that novels generally reach 20,000 words and will appear in the editor's background, and if they pass the editor's review, they will soon be sent to sign a short station, but he hasn't waited so far.
Lehi knows his current situation, no matter how much he rewards his novels, once he doesn't sign a contract, it will be like what Gu Hong said before - there is no profit, only empty decorations!
Right now, the of moving in two months has been blown out in front of Wang Daluo, and a small half of the time has passed, but he still has no decent income.
Lehi was so worried, he finally had the confidence to regain his old business, but if he was still lost, his face would be lost.
"Hello, your work "I Heard You Are Going to Fight with Me" has been followed by the editors, please keep it updated."
Normally, once a novel is favored by an editor, one such message of encouragement will be sent before the signing notice arrives.
After receiving the encouragement message, as long as it is kept up-to-date, eighty percent can receive a contract notification within three days.
However, this message of encouragement has been left a week ago until now, and during this week, Lehi has not received any signing notice at all!
"Maybe I'm too impatient, as long as I can receive information about attention, theoretically speaking, I can sign a contract." Lehi smiled bitterly.
"Editors are very busy reviewing and sometimes they are overlooked, so it doesn't matter if you wait a little longer."
In the end, Lehi could only comfort himself in this way, and when he was bored, he wanted to be in the water.
"Stone God, is your signing station short?" At this time, the book pushing group in QQ, which was originally talking about the topic of girls, suddenly sounded the voice of Maitreya Deer.
"Yes, Stone, is it a little late for your short stand? Normally, when it is 20,000 words, you can see that the signing station is short. ”
Maitreya's words made everyone change their topic and begin to pay attention to the situation of Lehi's new book.
"Thank you for your concern, the station is short yet, but I believe it should be soon." Li Hai didn't want to reply to such a bad topic, but since it was everyone's kindness, he couldn't pretend not to see it.
"It's almost 40,000 words, it's too late." Maitreya Lu's words seem to be regretful, but a discerning person knows at a glance that he is satirizing Lehi's work for failing to meet the signing standards.
Everyone understands the reason, once the work exceeds 40,000 words and there is no notice of signing a short station, it can basically be concluded that this work does not meet the signing standard.
"It's okay stone, you write well, there will always be a chance to sign a contract, and it's okay if it's late." The younger sister Nian Moqi made an expression of touching her head and comforted Li Hai.
"That's right, even if you don't meet the signing criteria, we will continue to reward you and support you." Another hardcore female pink colorless non-white is also stiff and stiff Lehi.
The voices of the two women are square, and the group is full of voices of encouragement.
"Thank you for your support, I will write a good book." To be honest, Lehi was indeed very relieved to have so many people to support and comfort him, and the previous depression disappeared all of a sudden.
Seeing Lehi once again become the focus of everyone, Maitreya Lu, who had just jumped up on this topic, was naturally a little unhappy.
"Humph! It's a waste of money, no one will make any profit, what's the use of rewarding him? You might as well tip me. ”
Maitreya Lu was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't say the above sentence, but edited another message and sent it: "Hehe, come on, stone, I'll go one step ahead of you first." ”
As he spoke, he saw Maitreya Deer send a screenshot.
That's his fiction page, and you can see that on the status bar, it has changed from a "public work" to a "contracted work".
Although Maitreya Lu did not clearly explain what he meant, his idea of flamboyance has already been revealed, which is nothing more than saying "Dude, I have signed a contract, and you haven't signed a contract yet, it's so pitiful."
"He actually signed a contract?" Seeing the screenshot of Maitreya Deer, Lehi couldn't help but be a little surprised.
To tell the truth, this man's work Lehi has read, but it is lacking in a few chapters.
At the beginning of the chapter on the war of gods and demons, after the war of gods and demons, a bunch of characters and backgrounds were thrown, and the foreshadowing looked like an old woman's footcloth, and I read 10,000 words, to be honest, Li Hai didn't even know who the protagonist was, and this kind of book could also be signed?
Lehi didn't have time to be surprised, and after a closer look, he realized that this so-called signing turned out to be a "potential signing".
There are several kinds of signing at the starting point, among which "potential signing" is a low-threshold signing arranged by the starting point for new authors, and the author can independently put the work on the shelves after 200,000 words, and there will be a manuscript fee after the shelves.
However, during this period, the author has no referral slots, and there will be no attendance bonus, only income purely from subscriptions, which means that it is difficult to make money.
In fact, it is not uncommon for potential to sign a contract at all, as long as you apply for a contract at the time of 100,000 words, in the case that A cannot be signed, in consideration of the dignity of retaining the newcomer, the editor will still provide this kind of signing procedure.
In terms of gold content, the potential signing is probably just a drop in strength compared to the public work, which is too far from the normal A-level contract.
To put it mildly, the potential to sign a contract, this is just a spiritual comfort for newcomers, and generally rookie authors who don't know why will think that they are old, such as Maitreya deer.
"Oh, yes, Maitreya Lu, you actually signed a contract, but I haven't been short."
"Hey, I don't know when I'll be able to sign a contract."
"I said I would pounce on you as a dog together, but you quietly became a god, hey......"
As soon as the screenshot of Maitreya Deer's signing came out, it quickly caused another topic in the group, which made the parties so proud that they almost laughed out loud.
There are few authors in the group.,Most of them are still white.,I don't know what a sign is, what a potential sign is.,I just think that signing is a dick anyway.。
"Luck, luck, nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts, as long as you work hard, everyone has the opportunity to sign a contract with me, you have to work hard, you have a lot of potential." In response to everyone's enthusiasm, Maitreya Deer is pretentious.
Lehi, who knew the truth, smiled, but did not expose it, forget it, let him be happy, what a disappointment to tell the truth, right? It seems like he's snarky.
