In fact, it is easy to see that the organizing committee of the "Author of the Year Contest" attaches great importance to Li Kuo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The traffic on the official website of the "Author of the Year Contest" is relatively high, and the number of views of each piece of news is definitely not low.
After many authors participate in this competition, the news will be reported: after all, only the authors invited by the organizing committee can participate, and the authors they invite are not unknown, so they will be broadcast on the news.
It's just that most of the news on this official website is broadcast by two or three authors together, but Li Kuo is a direct single news.
From this, it can be seen that the organizing committee attaches great importance to Li Kuo......
This is indeed a person with a lot of potential!
And judging from the popularity of Li Kuo's novels written by the organizing committee before, the commercial value of him is definitely not low.
Based on these considerations, it is possible that the current single piece of news has emerged.
Although the organizing committee of the ...... "Author of the Year Competition" let Li Kuo have a single piece of news, he is still a little worried in his heart, worried that it will cause a backlash from other authors.
However, the rebound of other authors did not wait for the time being, but the rebound of the audience came soon!
This piece of news has just been released, and on the forum of the official website, many posts have almost exploded!
There are all kinds of posts on the forum, and one thing these posts have in common is that almost all of them are discussing Li Kuo!
"Great! Li Kuo is finally going to participate in this competition! I'm looking forward to what new works he can come up with, and the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" he wrote is very good, but it's not enough to read! Now he doesn't have a double open...... Hopefully, this competition will inspire him to have a greater desire to create. ”
"Li Kuolai participated in this competition...... It will definitely be one of the strongest contenders for the best newcomer author of the year, which is commonly known as the newcomer king! Hopefully he can play well. ”
"In the next few months, a new competition begins! And this time Li Kuo's participation in this annual author contest is really a good thing for me, I now have a favorite author to look forward to. ”
However, some people began to express a little worry: "Although I also think that Li Kuo should participate in such a competition, but I feel that Li Kuo still prefers to be an entertaining author, and at present, such a competition, although it has been relatively commercialized, but it still adheres to the bottom line in places such as article quality, Li Kuo doesn't know if he can persist in this competition system to the end!" ”
Of course, this view was quickly refuted.
"That's a bit too biased! In fact, if you look closely, Li Kuo's novels are not just as simple as some entertainment! Looking at the novelty of his "Notes on Tomb Robbery", especially looking at the values of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", you can hear his thoughts...... Or if you're too long, take a look at Li Kuo's short story "A Bowl of Yangchun Noodles" and you'll find that he's not what you think. ”
…… The discussion is ongoing, and the discussion after that is not even limited to the official website, but has begun to spread to the meager level, but when it comes to the meager level, most people are still similar to the things discussed on the official website, and most of them are praising and looking forward to Li Kuo's performance.
Li Kuo's current popularity has really increased a lot.
…… Now, Li Kuo has successfully signed up for the Author of the Year competition, and the next month is the real start of the first month.
And Li Kuo is now starting to worry about what he should write for the first shot.
The following first month will be a time when authors begin to build up their fame.
In this annual author contest, the author's works also include novels published in newspapers and magazines, essays and other things, and the formula for calculation is that the sales of these things, as well as the official website, and the meager discussion heat form the heat score of a work, and then a total of 150 judges in this contest form professional scores, and the two scores will be added together to form the points of this work, and the points will be assigned to the author's name.
If it is a long work, it will add points to the professional score.
The score of the competition is a 100-point system, with 50 points each for professional and 50 points for popularity, and long-form works, including published works, will be able to get even a maximum of about 200 points in the professional score, and in terms of popularity points, it will also be considered as appropriate, adding a maximum of about 200 points and the full score of long-form works has changed from 100 points to 300 points......
These are the care given to long-form works.
This format dictates that a long-form work is a gamble: if you win, you get a high score, but if you lose, you pay more.
…… And in the first month, Li Kuo decided to publish a short story or an essay or something, and fired the first shot first.
Li Kuo was still hesitating.
Although he has a lot of novel resources, he definitely can't release them all at once, which would be a bit shocking.
When Li Kuo was struggling and hesitating, "East Poster Literary Edition" now sent news to Li Kuo, that is, the copyright negotiations for the two books "Tianya Mingyue Knife" and "Chivalrous Journey" are about to begin, and Li Kuo should give him a bottom line that he thinks.
The copyright negotiations for the two books "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" and "The Journey of Heroes" are not film and television copyrights, but publishing copyrights.
He didn't know much about this Li Kuo, he thought about it, and could only say that his request was not to buy out at one time, but to be able to share some shares.
"East Poster Literary Edition" agreed to Li Kuo's request, so the next step was negotiation.
Later, "East Poster Literary Edition" also asked Li Kuo if he would participate in specific negotiations, but Li Kuo felt that he didn't have much help in this matter, so he shook his head.
Anyway, they can't trap themselves, after all, the contract after that still has to be put in front of Li Kuo's eyes before it can take effect.
Anyway, "East Poster Literary Edition" will definitely handle this matter and try to fight for benefits.
The publishing copyright of Li Kuo's two books is actually not on the side of "East Poster Literary Edition", and their publication was also authorized by Li Kuo before.
"East Poster Literary Edition" also charges a certain commission in the middle of the negotiation.
This time it was not as high-profile as the previous auction of the film and television rights of Li Kuo's "Days of Living with a Flight Attendant", but it still found a lot of publishers to negotiate with.
After two days of negotiations, the results were also reached.
In the end, the two books "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" and "Chivalrous Travel" were sold to two publishing houses.
Among these two books, the condition of "Chivalry and Travel" is 100 yuan per thousand words, plus a 20% share of profits, and of the 20% share of profits, "East Poster Literary Edition" will take 7% of it, and the rest is Li Kuo's.
The conditions of "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" are exactly the same......
Both books have a home, and the next thing is to put the publication on the agenda...... (To be continued.) )
