Chapter 235: It's Yours to Decide
After thinking about it, Liu La really didn't figure out what novel she should write. The first thing he thought about was naturally the web novel he was most familiar with.
The problem is that there are too many words in online novels, three or four million words at every turn, and I am afraid that it will take two or three years to write a novel, which is really unaffordable.
But it's normal to think about it, the novels that Liu La has read must be somewhat well-known, with relatively good grades, and the number of words in novels with good grades is naturally more, after all, it can be directly linked to income.
Generally, the number of words in novels with poor grades can be a little less.,It's not necessary to have poor grades in the problem.,I didn't get popular in the last life.,It's not necessarily better to come to this life.。
Good-looking but too many words are excluded, and the rest of Liu La's familiarity and favorite reading are horror and suspense novels.
I'm afraid that Liu Ra still likes the novel very much, and when he goes to school, he always likes to hide in the bed, and he is so scared that he can't put it down.
Like Zhou Dedong and Cai Jun in China, Keigo Higashino and Stephen King abroad, these are all horror and suspense novels that Liu La appreciates.
Like Zhou Dedong's "Qimen Dunjia", Keigo Higashino's "White Night Walking", as well as Stephen King's "Pet Cemetery", "Under the Dome", and "The Shawshank Redemption" Liu La has seen it more than once, and even Liu La's favorite American drama "Lost" is also Stephen King's work.
But one thing is more embarrassing, the problem of horror novels is just the opposite of the problem of online novels, online novels are because there are too many words, and horror novels are because the number of words is too small, so they are not suitable for writing serials at all.
Most of the horror novels on the market now are between 150,000 and 200,000 words, which does not even meet the minimum requirements for serialization and shelves, and it is estimated that it can only be written for free.
In the final analysis, the platform that is really suitable for horror novels has to be physical publishing, but the procedures such as review and batch number of physical publishing are too complicated and too long, it is estimated that the novels written this year will have to be sold next year when they are put on the shelves, and the year after tomorrow when the money can be obtained, Liu La really can't afford to wait.
Moreover, compared with online novels, the copyright fee of physical copyright is actually very low, a good online novel, you can get 50% of the subscription share, if it is published by the entity one day, you can also get a one-time 50% of the physical copyright fee.
If it is replaced by a physical novel, the new author has no copyright fee, only a one-time buyout of 10,000 to 50,000 yuan.
The copyright fee for ordinary authors is 10 percent. Excellent and influential authors, such as Xiao Nizi and Gu Man, can probably get 15%.
After Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize in Literature, the price could be between 20 and 25 percent. It is rumored that Han Han is the first author in China who can get 30% of the copyright fee.
But the first one you can get, but it's not the highest, in China, and even the world, the highest copyright fee in the world must be Guo Jingming, who is the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, and he can offer himself as much as he wants, no one can control him, and if he likes it, he can open 100%.
There are many writers all over the world, and there are really few who can really get mixed to this point, to put it bluntly, you have to become famous as soon as possible!
Guo Jingming was seventeen or eighteen years old when he became famous, and he became the editor-in-chief and the owner of the magazine in his thirties, and it took more than ten years, which is not too exaggerated.
As for other writers, they generally have to be in their thirties to become famous, and they are after the age of forty. At this age, it's not realistic for them to learn company management, so let's write a novel honestly.
To be honest, half of the domestic magazine market is ruined by these famous writers. After becoming famous, he was soon hired as the editor-in-chief of a magazine, the problem is that the novel is well written, but when it comes to business, these people are far from Guo Jingming's two hits, not only can not make the company make money, but keep losing money, and sales are getting worse and worse.
Excellent magazines like "Coward" and "Horror" in China all went out of business because they changed well-known writers as editors-in-chief, and their results became worse day by day.
The topic is further away.
Since horror novels are not good, Liu La had to rule them out. Category by category, in the end, there is only one choice left for Liu La, that is, the martial arts novels that are popular all over the world.
The peak period of martial arts novels was in the eighties, when Liu La had not yet begun to cross over, but perhaps it was for this reason that the development of martial arts novels in this world was not much different from the previous life.
Shooting the Condor, Condor, Chu Liuxiang, Lu Xiaofeng, Seven Swords Under the Tianshan Mountain, White Horse Howling West Wind, all these excellent classic works have not disappeared, and they are presented in front of the audience.
And the humorous Jin Yong, the merry Gu Long, the frosty Liang Yusheng, and the style of the three martial arts novelists, like the previous life, are constantly influencing generations.
However, there are still changes between the two worlds after all, and in the field of martial arts novels, the biggest change is a person, a person named Huang Yi.
Readers who like to watch martial arts know that Huang Yi started his career later than the other three, and it is already the later stage of martial arts novels.
He was originally a senior executive of a company, and suddenly decided to quit his job before he went to write a novel.
It's going to be fateful on this night, and before he became famous by writing novels, Liu La had already traveled to this world. I don't know what the butterfly effect is, the good Huang Yi was stunned and let Liu Spicy disappear, maybe he also went to write novels, but his well-known works, such as "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", "Rain and Clouds", and the most famous "Xun Qin" These have disappeared.
For the first time, Liu La was surprised to find that Huang Yi was missing in the history of martial arts novels. He searched carefully on the Internet for a long time, but he really didn't find any news about the novel writer Huang Yi.
In the end, Liu La discovered that in Hollywood, the United States, in recent years, there has been a well-known screenwriter named Huang Yi, who is also a Hong Kong native, and has only moved to the United States for a few years.
After carefully recalling the appearance of Huang Yi in his mind, and comparing the face of the person in the news, Liu La finally determined that these two were the same person at all.
I don't know what kind of coincidence, this Uncle Huang didn't live in seclusion to Lishan, but went to the United States to work as a screenwriter.
Thinking back to Huang Yi's works, Liu La was immediately excited, it was too suitable, there was no such fit.
The subject matter is also appropriate, the rhythm is also appropriate, and even the number of words is appropriate, to say a shameless word, it seems that God specially prepared it for Liu La.
"Alright, it's up to you!" Liu Sa shouted excitedly in the room...... (To be continued.) )
