TT typed and chatted unhappily, Sun Peng simply gave his mobile phone number to Zheng Ye and asked the other party to call.

After answering the phone, it was polite, and under Sun Peng's repeated inquiries, Zheng Ye patiently explained, Sun Peng could be regarded as touching a little bit of the doorway, and he also roughly guessed the reason why the eagle shot the street.

The reason is very simple, it is nothing more than that the Chinese cultural industry in this world is too developed.

For a country, the cultural industry is of course a good thing, in addition to creating a large number of jobs, increasing GDP, but also showing the real strength of a country, after all, the cultural industry is one of the elements that can best represent a country's political influence and economic strength.

But a developed industry also means fierce competition.

Because of its strong economy and a population of up to 1.2 billion, Huaxia has created an extremely large market, and the strict copyright protection policy ensures the interests of authors, so the online literature with the lowest threshold has attracted countless fantasists, who have the dream of becoming famous all over the world, and rush into this candle flame one after another. But because of this, it has caused the fierce competition of today's online literature, which can be described as a sea of corpses and blood compared to physical publishing with a high threshold, and every well-known author is killed among thousands of people.

If a newcomer wants to get ahead, it's too difficult.

It is conceivable that he is originally a pink newcomer author, even if it is a classic like the Legend of the Condor Heroes, how can it easily emerge? has just written a novel of more than 100,000 words, and many old white readers don't even look at it, which has caused even more "miserable" data in Sun Peng's eyes. What's more, after decades of glory, chivalrous novels have long become a dead novel category in the eyes of new readers, and only those die-hard fans will continue to look for this type of book on the website.

"Without him, the times make it!"

After reading Zheng Ye's explanation, Sun Peng couldn't help but sigh: How untimely it is to cross!

If you go back a few decades to the time when the Internet had not yet appeared, the television technology had not yet fully matured, and newspapers were still the mainstream of the media, the Condor would definitely be as popular as many time-traveling novels, creating a classic status like the earth. Next, Sun Peng doesn't need to worry about anything, as long as he takes advantage of the situation to fry many famous articles of Jin Da, it is enough to create an era that belongs to him.

But it's a pity that he crossed into such a parallel world.

The era of newspapers informing the media is long gone, and even the influence of television is rapidly declining, not to mention the development of the Internet, which has turned novels, a game that was previously only played by the literary elite, into mass entertainment, and it is not so easy to stand out in the mass of works. This is why such a classic novel as Condor is still Chinese bookish but inconspicuous on the Internet, people have long cultivated more than a dozen big gods, hundreds of small and medium gods, and carved up most of the reader resources......

So in fact, the results of Condor shooting are already very good in the chivalrous novel section!

In the mouth of editor Zheng Ye, Sun Peng's unsightly achievements are already very good. Nowadays, online novels are basically occupied by science fiction, reasoning, urban and other categories, and the popular traversal rebirth stream in another world is even more popular, which can really be described as a hundred flowers, not inferior to the earth. But the traditional chivalrous novel has long been dead, and the model of three heroes and five righteousness has been written to the extreme by the Chinese people decades ago, and now no one writes it anymore except for a few die-hard fans, and few people read it anymore.

That's why Zheng Ye said that it is not easy for the Condor Archery with less than 200,000 words to have such an achievement.

But......

After listening to Zheng Ye's explanation, Sun Peng became more and more curious in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Zheng, I don't understand this, since this is the case, then why do you still ask me if the copyright of the Condor is still there?" Could it be that your society is still publishing chivalrous novels that have no market? ”

"Haha, again, physical publishing is not the same as online novels."

After laughing, Zheng Ye hurriedly explained: "In the physical publishing market, there are still many loyal readers of traditional chivalrous novels, who are generally slightly older and not very accustomed to reading books on the Internet...... And I don't think Condor shooting is the same thing as those traditional chivalrous novels, you say? ”

"Hey, that's interesting!"

When he saw this, Sun Peng finally felt that this editor Zheng was not ordinary.

The 200,000-word biography of the Condor Heroes, in fact, is far from a wonderful place in Sun Peng's view, for example, none of the most brilliant five must have appeared, and the miracle skills such as the eighteen palms of the dragon, the left and right fights, and the music and rhythm killing techniques have not yet emerged, and the exciting moments such as riding a shark and discussing the sword in Huashan are still to come. The first 200,000 words actually talk about the origin of Guo Jing and Yang Kang, the grievances and hatred between the seven sons of Quanzhen and the seven monsters of Jiangnan. If you have to say that the attraction is nothing more than the heart-destroying palm of the black wind and the white bone claws of the nine yin, of course, there is also the internal strength of the whole town that Ma Yu taught to Guo Jing - in this world, it is the first time that the internal strength has appeared so perfect in front of the world!

However, it took just half a month to come to the door, which still made Sun Peng feel a little incredible.

Just when Sun Peng frowned and was about to ask in detail, as if he had guessed the doubts in his heart, Zheng Ye quickly continued: "Actually, I have an old friend who is a loyal reader of chivalrous novels, and the homework he must do every day is to look for new chivalrous novels on our website. Hehe, it just so happens that all the chivalrous novels published by our publishing house are under my control, so ...... You get the idea, right? ”

I see!

After listening to this passage, Sun Peng finally understood completely.

However, after understanding and understanding, after figuring it out, Sun Peng still felt a little crying and laughing, and was aggrieved for Jin Dada's Condor Archery: No matter in which world, Condor Archery should definitely be a classic novel, think about descending the dragon, think about the dog stick method, think about the blue sea tide song, and then think about the Five Uniques and Huashan on the sword, that is simply the glorious starting point of martial arts novels! Unexpectedly, he was snubbed because of the wrong era in this world, even if he was just a plagiarist, Sun Peng felt very aggrieved in his heart - he brought it from his own world, and the eagle was snubbed by the people of this world, for Sun Peng, it was like being looked down upon by foreigners in traditional Chinese culture in his previous life......

While sighing a little heartily, Su Peng continued to ask curiously: "Editor Zheng, of course I am very confident in the Condor Shooting, but ...... After all, it's less than 200,000 words, it's just getting started, and the results are so bad that I don't even dare to put it on the shelves, why do you think it's qualified to be published? What if the back is written and collapsed? In this case, wouldn't it be risky for you to decide to publish it directly? ”

Sun Peng, who was in his previous life, actually had several dealings with the editors.

As a small-character surgeon, Sun Peng certainly does not have the qualifications to write books, but his mentor does! Which of the clinical experts has not received an invitation from the publishing house? Either write a major, or participate in the compilation of textbooks, etc. But how can they have time to write books when they have to have surgery, go out of clinics, hold academic conferences, and serve as members of various societies and editorial boards of various magazines? In the end, these trivial matters naturally fall on their doctoral or master's students, anyway, books and theses are different, what is needed is mature theory and knowledge, and it is enough to directly use it!

After contacting him a few times, Sun Peng knew that every editor has an assessment index.

So after thinking about it, Sun Peng couldn't understand why Zheng Ye contacted him so early. Condor shooting is of course classic enough, even if it is only 200,000 words, it is still standing out in the scholarly Chinese network, and discerning people can naturally find its excellence. But if this can make the editor of a big publishing house trust a pure newcomer and want to publish this book urgently, Sun Peng is still a little puzzled!

……

There was silence on the other end of the phone, as if he didn't expect Sun Peng to suddenly ask like this, and after a while, Zheng Ye's somewhat embarrassed voice came: "Mr. Sun, is that the case...... For novels with a good start, especially newcomers, we will generally contact the author in advance to preliminarily set a publishing agreement, of course, whether it can be published and when it will be published, but it also depends on the quality of the follow-up content, so this agreement is only a preliminary agreement......"

"Huh!"

When he heard this, Sun Peng's face turned dark, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

I was shocked just now, thinking that I was lucky to meet the plot in the novel, I met a big bull editor, and I found the true value of eagle shooting in the big waves, but I didn't expect it to be like this!

Preliminary agreement......

Thinking about it with his thighs, Sun Peng knows that this agreement must not be fair.

For example, if you write well later, because you signed an agreement, you will naturally hand it over to Scholar Publishing House to publish; But if you write it later, or because people don't like it in some way, it is likely that they will cancel the cooperation or delay it according to the agreement, anyway, it's a preliminary agreement, hum haha...... You know!

But after understanding, Sun Peng was not very angry.

This is only the first time that the two sides have been in contact with each other, and they are just doing their own work, so what is there to be angry about? Besides, with the current situation of the Condor Shooting, it is a good thing to have an editor pay attention to it, which shows that with the increase in the number of words and the development of the plot, the power of the classics has begun to slowly show, isn't it?

So after laughing, Sun Peng said indifferently: "It's okay, Editor Zheng, then please send me this preliminary agreement, I'll see how about it first?" ”

……

Alas, there was a problem with the signing.

Since the operation began last Friday, there have been problems in the background, and the editor has sent it several times, but the signing link has not been received...... I don't know if I'll be able to do it this week.
