Chapter 378: Science Fiction!

"East Poster Literary Edition" now has a very good relationship with Li Kuo, and some people even jokingly call "East Poster Literary Edition" Li Kuo's personal reserve. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Because here, there is no problem for Li Kuo to publish any novels or even literary works anyway, and this editorial department will approve his manuscript, and everyone will buy it and like to read it.

Therefore, it stands to reason that if Li Kuo plans to release a new novel, "East Poster Literary Edition" should be his best choice.

But Li Kuo has already considered that there is no real science fiction on "East Poster Literary Edition", and even if there is, it is a little conceptual, not even the kind of soft science fiction. So now, if Li Kuo plans to release a science fiction novel, he doesn't think it's suitable for him to put it on "East Poster Literary Edition".

So, after careful consideration, Li Kuo planned to put this novel in "Science Fiction Weekly".

"Science Fiction Weekly" is also a newspaper like "East Poster Literary Edition", but this "Science Fiction Weekly" is published once a week.

In this time and space, the development of science fiction is also similar to another time and space, the soil of science fiction is not particularly fertile, and there are not many science fiction novels cultivated on it, and there are not a few science fiction lovers in China, but they are usually in a relatively hungry state.

There are a lot of science fiction on online literature websites such as Singularity Literature Network, but to be fair, the science fiction on these websites basically can't see the real science fantasy at all, and most of them still use a background such as a future world to package fantasy stories.

But for newspapers and magazines like "Science Fiction Weekly", because of the mixed good, science fiction fans may not really support it all the time.

So the Chinese sci-fi market is, on the one hand, sci-fi fans are hungry and thirsty, and always feel that they can't see enough, or lack enough spiritual food, but on the other hand, sci-fi people feel that they are in a chaotic market, and it is difficult to exchange what they write for money that can support their families.

This is also a huge contradiction.

But in any case, "Science Fiction Weekly" is now the most authoritative science fiction newspaper and magazine in China, and this newspaper is a bit similar to the status of "Science Fiction World" in China's science fiction industry in the last time and space, which is quite powerful.

So Li Kuo decided to choose "Science Fiction World", according to his current fame, publishing novels in these newspapers and magazines, even if he didn't write this before, there shouldn't be too many problems. After all, with the growth of time and the changes in the world, "Science Fiction Weekly" has also begun to be affected by the outside world, and it has to become more commercial in order to barely survive in this world.

Science Fiction Weekly is the most suitable for publishing science fiction novels, which is more suitable than "East Poster Literary Edition".

In the "East Poster Literary Edition", there may also be a problem - the audience.

After all, science fiction literature is a niche literature compared to other novels, with a limited audience, and there are indeed very few readers who still like to read science fiction novels in "East Poster Literary Edition". Therefore, if Li Kuo's novel is placed in the "East Poster Literary Edition", it will definitely not be good, and it may not please both sides at that time.

After these careful choices, Li Kuo planned to publish the novel in "Science Fiction Weekly".

Before he could publish it, however, Li Kuo needed to do a few things.

First of all, Li Kuo needs to communicate with the official committee of the annual author contest and tell them the novels he will release next, which is an action that must be carried out before the release of each novel.

In this way, the contest committee will be able to post information on the Internet.

On the official website of the annual author competition, a preview will also be announced, which is what Fang Xi and Li Kuo said before: to put the trailer on the homepage on Li Kuo's novel.

This has to be planned for a long time.

Li Kuo's science fiction novels have already been reported to Fang Xi, and for these things, Fang Xi is the person in charge of Li Kuo, so he will naturally give him opinions, give him opinions on what kind of novels are better, and give him opinions such as science fiction novels are not very good. But the people at the top don't have these opinions, anyway, in their place, as long as they can publish it normally and let readers see it normally, they don't have to care too much about the rest.

"Science Fiction Weekly" and the Author of the Year Contest also cooperate, after all, "Science Fiction Weekly" also understands the attention of the annual author contest, if they can get a ranking on it, and the author is still from "Science Fiction Weekly", they will naturally be very happy.

Therefore, if Li Kuo is posted on this, he will definitely be able to reprint it on the website at that time.

Soon, the official website of the Author of the Year Contest was already preparing for Li Kuo to update the news and update the preview of his next novel.

The second thing Li Kuo has to do is to communicate with "Science Fiction Weekly" and then negotiate the publication of the novel, the manuscript fee is not a problem, and Li Kuo will not live with these two money. After all, even if you have a high price of one dollar per word, the money that this novel can sell is not a big amount for Li Kuo.

So the main thing is to allow this weekly magazine to publish its own novels, which is the most important.

Li Kuo has no way out for the time being, but he doesn't play any tricks to get away with it, so he found Ye Xing and asked Ye Xing to help contact the editor of "Science Fiction Weekly...... After all, although they are different places in the same country, they still understand each other and understand each other.

Ye Xing still seemed a little regretful, because he felt that the novel should have been published in "East Poster Literary Edition", but after Li Kuo's series of explanations, Ye Xing also expressed his understanding.

Sure enough, it is a circle, and because of the current sales of "East Poster Literary Edition", Ye Xing's popularity in the circle is also very high, so Ye Xing quickly contacted an editor of "Science Fiction Weekly", whose name is He Hong.

He Hong is one of the young editors of Science Fiction Weekly, and he is now in his early thirties, and he also published good novels under his command back then.

People like He Hong still insist on newspapers and magazines like "Science Fiction Weekly", in fact, more because they do have a passion for science fiction and have always wanted to do related things.

When he first got in touch, He Hong felt a little like shirking.

Because now He Hong feels that although Li Kuo's other novels are well written, science fiction novels are ...... How does this still feel very unreliable?

Therefore, He Hong did not agree to come down, but wanted to read the manuscript first. (To be continued.) )
