Chapter 042: Famous Artists and Fighting the Street
Looking at the book review on the webpage without a book review area, Zhao Yan was speechless for a while.
I went back to look at the order hotline, and then I noticed that the bottom of the order hotline showed that the number of people who have ordered this "Full Moon Scimitar" is currently 3.
In fact, only 3 people ordered their own novel online.
What a brutal fact!
"Alas!"
Seeing that the popularity of the novel he wrote is so bleak, although this book has just been published, Zhao Yan still can't help but feel very disappointed, in his own opinion, although the style of this "Full Moon Scimitar" has changed a lot, but the plot of the story is quite exciting, but, as a complete newcomer in the novel industry, few people still buy his works.
At the top left of the web page, there is a sales ranking, which is the sales ranking of works published by Mingshu Publishing House, thinking about it, Zhao Yan began to click on the works on the list one by one, wanting to see how the sales of these novels on the list are.
At the top of the list is a book called "Night Blood Song".
Zhao Yan clicked on it and found that it was the work of Guan Ying, and the total number of online orders is more than 48,000 people, and the number of orders this month is more than 7,400 people.
"It turns out that Guan Ying has published a new book......"
Zhao Yan found a reason for the dismal sales of his new book.
Guan Ying is a master of martial arts novels on the same level as Long Yin, the works of Guan Ying and Long Yin are completely different from the treatment of ordinary writers, the works of ordinary writers can generally only be published and distributed in one publishing house, but the works of Guan Ying and Long Yin are generally jointly issued by several publishing houses.
Zhao Yan saw that the publisher of Guan Ying's new book was not the Mingshu Society, but the famous oracle bone inscription in the industry, but it could also sell well on the website of the Mingshu Society.
I have to say that the social atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is much better than that of the Republic of another time and space, although the social classes of the Ming Dynasty are clear, and the nobles and doctors enjoy a lot of privileges more than ordinary people, and although the total population of the Ming Dynasty is only a little more than 400 million, only a fraction of the Republic, but the protection of cultural copyright in the Ming Dynasty is far greater than that of the Republic! Although the Ming Dynasty also has a pirated version, but the pirated version can only be sneaky and petty, and it is by no means like a republic in another time and space that the pirated version is more popular than the genuine version, but, then again, like the Republic of China, the country that wantonly pirates the 'version', even in that time and space, looking at ancient and modern China and foreign countries, there is only that!
It is also for this reason that the capable writers of the Ming Dynasty live quite nourishingly, and the 400 million people of the country support thousands of novel writers.
Zhao Yan clicked on the second-ranked work.
The book is called "Gengjin Sword Qi", and the author is the leading figure of the new martial arts - Zifu Kunlun.
The name of Zifu Kunlun, Zhao Yan is also like thunder, and his first work "Electric Sword Across the Sky" made the book Zifu Kunlun famous.
The reason why Zifu Kunlun is known as the leading figure of the new martial arts is because Zifu Kunlun's works are accustomed to integrating elements of modern society in his martial arts.
For example, his debut novel "Electric Sword Across the Sky" is written about a modern urban youth who obtained the ability to control electricity because of an accident.
Here is another thing to mention: although the Ming Dynasty has entered the modern society, but the style of martial arts, has not been broken, according to statistics, nationwide, the total number of registered martial arts halls, sects has more than 3,000.
Some powerful martial arts halls and sects have even opened branches to other overseas countries.
Although the Ming Dynasty abolished the martial arts system, but the disciples of various martial arts halls and sects have the priority to enter the army, in the ** era, although the kung fu of these martial artists is not of much use, but the perseverance and will of the people who practice martial arts, as well as the style of acting, can make them first-class soldiers, and even officers.
Zifu Kunlun is accustomed to and is good at integrating modern scientific and technological elements into his works, so that his works are always very different from the traditional martial arts novel style, so he is known as a new school of martial arts, under the influence of his works, in recent years, many authors have begun to try to integrate modern scientific and technological elements, so that this style of works is more, and it has gradually become a genre.
As the first well-known writer to write about this new school of martial arts, Zifu Kunlun naturally became the leading figure of this genre.
Zhao Yan saw his new work "Gengjin Sword Qi", and the sales were also very good.
The total number of online orders is more than 31,000, and the number of orders this month is more than 5,500.
……
The third-ranked work, called "The Female God Catcher", is written by Carmine.
From the title of the book and the author's name, it can be seen that the author of this book is a woman, the name of carmine, Zhao Yan is no stranger, the older generation of martial arts masters of the Ming Dynasty, the most famous are Long Yin and Guan Ying.
There are also a few martial arts masters whose names are slightly weaker than Long Yin and Guan Ying, such as Demon Hand, Greedy Flower and Splendid Article.
But without exception, the older generation of martial arts masters are all men.
Carmine is a well-known figure of the new generation, and her fame is on par with Zifu Kunlun, and she is the best-selling female writer in the current Ming Dynasty.
In her writings, the protagonist is always a woman, and she is sought after by countless female readers.
Zhao Yan clicked on the webpage of "The Female God Catcher", only to find that the new work of Carmine was also published this month, and the limelight is very strong! The total number of orders is more than 5,400, and the number of orders this month is more than 5,400.
Looking at the momentum of this book, it may beat the second-ranked "Gengjin Sword Qi" at any time, and it is completely the rhythm of the fire.
Zhao Yan looked at it, and put his right hand on his forehead depressedly, thinking that it was no wonder that there were so few people who bought my "Full Moon Scimitar", it turned out that there were new works of Guan Ying, Zifu Kunlun, and Carmine recently.
In frustration, Zhao Yan clicked on other titles on the list one after another, and Zhao Yan found that most of the works on the list were works by well-known writers.
For example, Li Baiding, the fourth-ranked author of "Evil Sword", Princess Yuanyuan, the fifth-ranked author of "My Swordsman Boyfriend", and the eighth-ranked author of "The Four Generals of the Demon Family", Zhao Yan has heard the names of these authors and read their novels.
The other authors on the list, although Zhao Yan is not familiar with the names, but when he clicked on their authors' names, he found that they all had other works under their names, and they were obviously not newcomers.
When will my "Full Moon Scimitar" be on the list?
Zhao Yan looked at these best-selling works on the list and thought with some envy.
Extremely bored, Zhao Yan refreshed the page of "Full Moon Scimitar" again, and suddenly his eyes lit up, because Zhao Yan suddenly found that the number of orders for "Full Moon Scimitar" had risen to 14 people.
Looking at the book review area again, there is also a comment.
Chi Xiaoyu Feifei: "I just placed an order, I hope it's not a waste of money!" ”
Zhao Yan: "......"
The content of the comment is actually like this, Zhao Yan almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, do you want to be so cheating?
ps:This chapter is to make up for yesterday.,I still owe the alliance leader Tianyi two chapters to add more.,Lao Mu will make up for it.,Another:The lyrics in the previous chapter Some people say that Lao Mu is in the water word count.,Anyway,Didn't you find that the lyrics were original by Lao Mu? It took me more than an hour to write it! Is the old wood sick with such a water word count?
