The fame of Jin Yong Inn originated in the Jin Yong Inn section of the Sina Forum, and later with the Internet Exhibition, few people knew about Jin Yong Inn anymore. But on the Internet in 2oooo years, the section of Jin Yong Inn is definitely a popular plate under Sina.

After hearing that he had reached the ground, there were also many acquaintances of Jin Yong's Inn Forum who came to join him.

"Monkey, I heard you're up there?" The online ID is "Jiangnan", and the master of Jin Yong's Inn is famous for "The Boy Here", and he is a text message in the station.

"Why, I just got a job." Now he is calmly explained.

Pretending, this is definitely pretending!

Jiang Nan looked at the screen a little jealously, hesitated for a long time, and asked, "What do you think of the "Boy Here" I am writing on the Internet?" ”

Jin He pondered for a long time and said: "It's okay, but it doesn't meet the direction of our website, our company's current strategy is to need a long length, just like "The Legend of Shushan Heroes" and "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", millions of words of novels. ”

"What?!" Jiang Nan almost cursed, thinking that it must be a monkey who was jealous of him on the forum, who was more famous than him and had more fans than him.

You know, although "The Legend of Wukong" is a sensation.

But in the Jin Yong Inn sector, it is Jiangnan's "The Boy Here" who is more popular. On the one hand, Jiangnan's works borrow the names of Jin Yong's martial arts characters, which can be regarded as a Jin Yong novel fandom.

In addition, Jiangnan is good at forming gangs, and on the Jin Yong forum, he is hugging from front to back. He is the leading brother in the eyes of many pen pals who dance and write.

Now the situation is just reversed, Jiangnan, who has formed gangs, is still a reckless and powerless person on the Internet!

Now where is it, but it has been recruited by the famous small partner culture company, and it has been entrusted with important tasks, and the power is in hand, how not to make Jiangnan jealous.

If Jin He knew what Jiangnan was thinking now, he would say indifferently - you think too much!

Actually, I joined a small partner company. After becoming an executive of the company. What are the interests of the company and the sector that are being considered today. In addition, promoting online literature and turning it into an industry is also a very exciting business for Jinhe.

Due to standing on the upper floors and looking down. Naturally, he won't be because of it. An author. Steal his limelight on the forum and be jealous. What's more, the current "Legend of Wukong" has been published, and it has sold more than 100,000 copies. Moreover. Soon it will be reprinted, and it will definitely be more than 100,000 copies in the end.

And Jiangnan's "The Boy Here" is only in the Jin Yong Inn, and the small circle is touting each other.

Is it necessary to be jealous of a netizen whose grades are far worse than him and whose career is far inferior to his?

This exchange made the small partner company miss the signing of Jiangnan!

This can be regarded as a gain and a loss!

Where is it now, but Jiangnan is lost!

In history, after the two later became enemies, they tore each other apart for a long time, accused each other, and dug each other's black history for many years. Not to communicate early, for the two of them, it is a good thing.

……

Although, I missed Jiangnan, a god with great potential. However, the starting point Chinese website under the partner company still attracted many high-level submissions.

One of them is actually a work with the pen name Xiao Qian, and the novel is called "Ethereal Journey"!

The writing of this work is not good, at least worse than the writing of Jin He Zai. However, the idea of "Ethereal Journey" is almost epoch-making in this era.

In the early years of classical Chinese mythological novels, "Journey to the West" and "Fengshen Bang" can be regarded as a pinnacle and **, in terms of classics, there are few mythological stories later, and the classic Cheng dù can be compared with it.

However, China's classical mythological novels are still on display. For example, in the Republic of China period, the novels of the lord of Huanzhu Mansion were combined with chivalrous elements, creating a precedent for Xianxia-themed novels.

In this, it is natural to take "The Legend of Shushan" as an example, and the majesty of its imagination is a martial arts novel that came later. For example, martial arts novels such as Jin Yong and Gu Long are actually a step backwards in terms of imagination. People after World War II were more conservative than writers during the Republic of China, and they couldn't let go. On the surface, in the new martial arts era, the chivalrous warriors who come and go, sword energy, and acupoints, look imaginative.

But the lord of the pearl building "Shu Mountain" plays flying away from the sky, splitting mountains and boiling the sea, this type of immortal fighting method, the summary of classical culture and the mythological system, is more than one level higher than the later martial arts novels.

"Ethereal Journey" is fortunate that it has resurrected the theme of Xianxia. On the basis of "The Legend of Shushan", there is innovation.

In terms of classics and words, it may not be able to pass "Shu Mountain".

But if you write the history of the subject matter of online literary novels, "Ethereal Journey" can be regarded as creating a new genre, and Xiao Qian, with the book "Ethereal", can be regarded as the grandmaster of the founding school.

"Boss, I think this article is good!" Now He is handing "Ethereal Journey" to Wang Qinian.

As soon as Wang Qinian saw the title of the book, he actually knew that what he said was true, so he pretended to read the 130,000-word submission seriously and said: "This manuscript should be replied to as much as possible, otherwise, it may be signed away by Taiwanese booksellers!" ”

"Why?" Why are you surprised that Taiwan's booksellers have extended their hands to the mainland? Why, the domestic media rarely report.

"The 130,000-word manuscript is the weight of two episodes on the Taiwan side." Wang Qinian explained, "Traditional Chinese publishing is generally published according to collections. Since Gu Long's time, a martial arts novel is about sixty or seventy thousand words, and it is published episode by episode. If only one episode comes out in a few months, readers may be impatient and will hit the street. As a result, martial arts writers gradually have one episode a month and two episodes a month. There are even writers who publish one episode a week to attract readers! In the case of similar quality, whoever writes faster has the advantage! Submit a simplified manuscript and a traditional manuscript, from the number of words submitted, it is easy to distinguish. ”

"I see!" "So, is it possible for us to enter the Taiwan market?" ”

"Unlikely! Many markets in Taiwan are not open to the mainland. Taiwan is a bookseller, and can use mainlanders as cheap labor to ask for manuscripts from the mainland. However, it is impossible for mainland capital to be allowed to set up a publishing organization in Taiwan, and Taiwan is much more conservative and closed than the mainland in this regard! Wang Qinian said.

In fact, since the end of the 9o, Taiwan's books have begun to attract cheap writers from the mainland. On the Internet, Taiwanese books have dug up the works of many mainland online writers and signed them to the Taiwanese market cheaply. Many mainland online writers have relied on traditional Chinese to pay a lot of manuscript fees.

For example, Xiao Qian's "Ethereal Journey" is amazingly popular in the traditional market, and even became a writer with an annual income of more than one million very early.

Of course, Taiwan's market will almost stagnate or even decline in the future. The online publishing market in the mainland is fast.

In the early years, many writers who wrote in traditional Chinese missed the opportunity to accumulate popularity on the mainland Internet. Wait until the Taiwanese market is weak and want to return to the Internet. However, although the Internet market has grown, its market share is monopolized by emerging gods.

In the early years, professional writers who mixed with Taiwan's traditional publishing market did not have much competitive advantage in the face of younger generations who imitated their works.

Of course, because there are still very few writers in China who are influenced by commercial writing, many writers write stories that are not competitive in the market.

On the contrary, Taiwan, due to the commercial publishing market, has a lower threshold than the mainland. It has not only attracted a large number of online writers from Chinese mainland to contribute to Taiwan's publishing industry.

In fact, there are still some new generation writers in Taiwan in this era. For example, Nine Knives, Lawson.

Nine knives seem to be far away from the mainstream market of online literature.

And Rosen, an online writer from across the Taiwan Strait and three places, must be recognized as a predecessor of online literature. It seems that Rosen's masterpiece "The Tale of Grace" has been serialized on the Taiwan Internet since 1997. After that, it was valued by publishers and began to publish this long-form novel.

"I think we can try to work with Taiwanese writers, like Rosen, who is a very talented writer. His traditional publishing copyright must have been sold, but we can talk to him about Internet copyright! Wang Qinian said, "Rosen's "The Tale of Grace" is only an Internet copyright, and it can be issued for 2oo yuan per thousand words. Within this price, you can get it! Well, as for Xiao Qian's "Ethereal Journey" 1,000 words and 1,000 yuan, the contract is to win all his copyrights, simplified and traditional publishing, network copyright and adaptation rights, and the contract can be set at less than 3oo0,000 words! ”

A thousand words and a thousand yuan is not an astronomical amount in the publishing world.

However, the length of the contract is 3oo thousand words, and one word is one dollar. After writing 3oo thousand words, you can get 3oo million yuan, which is absolutely astronomical.

Even when he heard this, he also rumbled and swallowed a mouthful of saliva - his "The Legend of Wukong" only earned 50,000 yuan, and the manuscript fee was actually only more than 2oo yuan per thousand words.

Seeing Jin Hezai's expression, Wang Qinian patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry about your "The Legend of Wukong", there will be other aspects of income in the future. For example, copyright adaptation can be divided. If it is fully adapted and opened in the future, you will not earn less than this number! ”

In fact, "Ethereal Journey" is a thousand words and thousands of yuan, which is definitely not expensive. Because, this work was later traditional in Taiwan, and it swept the book world for several consecutive years. Whether it is selling or renting books, they are among the best. In addition, on the Internet, a genre was created.

In addition, "Ethereal Journey" later became an online game, and its popularity in China was average, but in the Taiwan market, it should be regarded as a popular game. (To be continued!)
