Section 30 Wait a few more days
Verse 30 Wait a few more days
Came to the computer, skillfully turned on, sat down, and then put on the headphones, and saw the past desktop of the Windows startup icon unfolded, Feng Chaochen's mood suddenly became a little excited, and a little apprehensive, whether his efforts in the past 20 days can be rewarded, he will soon be able to see.
With such a nervous mood, Feng Chaochen opened the browser and entered the URL of NetEase Mail on the address bar, because he was too excited, his fingers trembled a little when he hit the keyboard, and he entered one more letter, quickly deleted, clicked enter, and then entered his email account password.
Feng Chaochen was a little anxious, the password was wrong once, and the second time was correct, as the web page jumped, the mailbox opened, aiming at the inbox, there were eight unread new emails inside.
Eight letters?
What's going on......
I only voted for six publishing houses, Feng Chaochen felt quite surprised, and suddenly he didn't feel nervous, he clicked on the inbox quickly, and five of them were spam mailboxes, and the titles knew what they were all "free xxx", "welcome xxx" and "latest xxx", all of them checked and clicked to delete.
The other three are from different publishers.
Did your own work pass?
Feng Chaochen's heart began to beat violently again, his mouth felt a little thirsty, and he unconsciously smashed it twice, his fingers trembled slightly, and he controlled the mouse to click on one of the emails.
At this time, Feng Chaochen suddenly felt a little like laughing, it turned out that he was not as confident as he believed, and at this critical moment, he would also be nervous, just like when he left home for the first time and left the city where he had lived for more than ten years, came to the big city alone, and applied for the first time and waited for the review.
Obviously, I am very confident in this "Red Lotus Fire", but at this moment, I am suddenly worried about being rejected by all publishing houses, which is definitely impossible.
Two of the publishers that sent these three emails have a very fast review speed and a low standard for the inclusion of manuscripts, because these two publishing houses are not very large, and if they do not lower their standards and increase their speed, it will be difficult to compete with those big publishing houses in the market.
On the other hand, Feng Chaochen also heard people in the author group mention in his previous life, it is an old publishing house with a lot of background, and has published books by many well-known writers, and the review standards for fantasy literature such as online novels are very high, can it be said that even they recognize their own strength?
Feng Chaochen was a little excited, and quickly clicked on the email.
"Hello, cheaters! I regret to inform you that your work "Red Lotus Fire" has been collectively reviewed by the editorial department of our company, and I regret to inform you that this work does not meet the standards published by our society, I hope you will not be discouraged, and make persistent efforts to create better works, and you are welcome to submit again......"
Although there was a certain expectation, but seeing that the publishing house, which has always been famous for its famous line, rejected the manuscript, Feng Chaochen's heart was still cold, even if he was mentally prepared, but when he really saw his work, his hard work was rejected like this, Feng Chaochen still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and dazed.
How much money can be made from this novel is secondary, not too much of a problem. But if this novel is rejected by the publishing house, it will be a big blow to Feng Chaochen. If the failure to reverse the division of the area incident is coupled with the rejection of the work, Feng Chaochen will inevitably doubt his own ability, and will have wavering doubts about the market, society, and even the extra ten years of memories in his mind.
Take a deep breath and click on the replies from the other two publishers.
"Hello, cheaters! I am honored to inform you that your work "Red Lotus Strange Fire" has been strictly reviewed by our editorial department for 10 days, and has passed the final review of our editor. If it is still in your hands, would you like to cooperate with us to sign a traditional Chinese publishing contract? ……”
"Hello, cheaters! We have certified and reviewed your work "Red Lotus Strange Fire", and our editors have always believed that your work has a good market value and is worthy of publication. Would you like to cooperate with us to sign a traditional Chinese publishing contract? ……”
The two reply emails with similar content have only one point, that is, they have both passed. Feng Chaochen let go of the mouse, grinned, clenched his fist fiercely, and laughed silently, his efforts were not in vain, he was recognized! As a human being in two lives, it was the first time that a novel could be published, and Feng Chaochen's heart was very happy.
Sure enough, what I thought was not wrong, I chose to write an online novel as the starting point of my new life, it was not wrong, my choice was right!
Gently relaxed, slumped on the backrest computer chair, Feng Chaochen squinted at the flickering mailbox interface on the big ass monitor, there are already two publishing houses that have agreed to publish their own work, a book can only sign a contract with one publishing house, do you want to choose one of them to sign a contract? Feng Chaochen pondered this question in his mind.
However, these two publishing houses are the smallest of the six publishing houses that Feng Chaochen submits, and these two publishing houses are much less powerful in Taiwan's publishing industry than the other four publishing houses that submitted articles, in other words, they are not well-known and there are not many channels for sales on the shelves. Choosing them, maybe the profit and fame after publication will be discounted.
Feng Chaochen didn't think about it for too long, and he had already made a decision.
Just wait and see!
Feng Chaochen said to himself in his heart that the strength of these two publishing houses is still too weak after all, and for authors, perhaps the only advantage is that the speed of review is fast enough, and the standard of approval is not high, and it is only for those authors whose works are not of high quality. Authors who feel that the quality of their works are excellent and have enough confidence will not feel that signing a contract with these two publishers is the first choice.
Feng Chaochen felt that he had a lot of confidence in this "Red Lotus Fire", so he decided to wait a little longer.
After all, Taiwan's strong publishing houses will have a relatively long review period, but generally the maximum is about 20 days, and most of the more than 20 days are due to the manuscript or other problems, and the strength of the other three publishing houses in Taiwan can be regarded as the middle and upper level. In particular, one of the Star Publishing House, which began to be the first batch of publishing fantasy novels a few years ago, in Feng Chaochen's memory, several people in the author group he joined in the past have mentioned this publishing house, saying that there are many online literature gods and traditional Chinese copyrights have chosen this publishing house, and the vision of the works is very accurate, and the works that have passed the review can achieve very good sales results in the market, and Feng Chaochen also likes this one more.
Anyway, there are only three or four days left before the maximum period of 20 days, and I have waited for half a month, and I don't care how many days I have to wait, Feng Chaochen said to himself in his heart, nodded fiercely, turned off the computer, walked to the bar and chose to get off.
