Chapter 56: Hot
Eventually, the editor couldn't resist Mike and agreed to Yuna Shimazaki's request to be an illustrator.
The quid pro quo, however, was that Mike had to write the next volume as quickly as possible.
Mike readily agrees with this, and he has intended to show the charm of this book to the public as quickly as possible.
After signing the contract, it is time to prepare for the promotion and release, which Mike doesn't have to worry too much about, and the editor will help solve it, and what he has to do now is to write the novel as hard as he can.
Tell Yuna Shimazaki about the signing and illustrator's confirmation, and the other party just replied relatively calmly, without too much surprise.
Mike didn't think much about it, first, he didn't want to communicate too much with Shimazaki Yuna, and second, he had begun to devote himself to writing novels.
Time slipped away under the tip of Mike's pen as he concentrated on writing, and a month passed.
Mike came into the world on the 17th of the 7th month, and then five days later, on the 22nd of July.
Now, thirty days later, today is August 21st, and Mack's book has been on sale for twenty-one days.
The sales were very good, and in less than a month, the number of 500,000 copies sold, which is already the most popular bestseller of the year.
And, due to the novel content and excellent writing, "My Days as a God in the Other World" won the first place in the XX Library Newcomer Awards in one fell swoop.
Mike is in RB light fiction circles and is completely famous.
The biggest benefit of being famous, for Mike, is the most intuitive rise in prestige.
Until now, there has been an increase of thousands every day, and it can be said that it is worthy of Mike's dedication and hard work in writing these days.
At this point, Mike's reputation is [842742 points], and he will soon reach 1 million reputation points.
You must know that these are all learned by Mike with his own real talents, without the help of Xiaoyou's hacking ability, so with more than 800,000 prestige points, Mike earns a great sense of accomplishment.
However, it's not that Mike Qinggao is unwilling to use the power of Xiaoyou to help him promote the novel, and he gains a lot of prestige while gaining recognition.
It's any industry, it's best for newcomers not to be too arrogant, and Mike doesn't want to cause trouble before the plot starts, so he didn't use the power of Xiaoyou when the first novel was sold.
But now, with the upcoming sale of the second volume, Mike is not ready to continue to 'hide', he wants to gain more recognition, more prestige!
Reputation is one of Mike's main concerns, as it relates to his own strength.
And recognition is the key to whether or not the gods created by Mike can come into this world, and it is also very important.
has already become famous, and Mike is not afraid to be famous again.
Moreover, the more the novel sells and becomes more famous, the easier it is to animate the adaptation.
You must know that the audience of animation is much wider than that of novels, and only by adapting it into animation can it gain more prestige and recognition.
Therefore, Mike is ready to let Xiao You make a move, and hand over all the manuscripts he has written in the past month to the editor for sale.
Over the course of a month, Mike put his heart and soul into it, and with the combination of inspiration and outline, Mike's writing speed put all light novel authors to shame.
In addition to the first volume, which has already been released, Mike has written a total of five volumes, each with 200,000 words, for a total of one million words.
This is no longer a tentacle monster level, but a fully automatic codeword type monster!
Faster than the authors of Huaxia's web novels!
This is due to Mike's amazing physique, as well as Xiao Right's axe.
Although in terms of inspiration, Xiaoyou can't help, but in normal writing, Xiaoyou's role is very great.
It can record Mike's inspiration and then tell Mike the right inspiration at the right time, so that he can write faster.
With this writing mode, coupled with his super physique, Mike smashed the keyboard that came with his laptop and bought two external keyboards, which allowed him to write a million words in a month.
The contents of the second volume were handed over to the editor early, because it was necessary to proofread and print the manuscript early.
Now, Mike has sent the remaining 800,000 words to the editor.
Then he got up and left the room and walked out to the balcony to stretch.
Toot ~ Toot ~
The phone rang, Mike answered, and the editor's voice shouted: "You give me an honest explanation!" Do you have a manuscript? You beast! I only sent it to me now! ”
"Yes, yes~" Mike listened to the phone and replied nonchalantly, he didn't correct the other party's meaning, after all, writing a million words a month is really not done by people.
"You 、、、," the editor was angry, "then let me ask you, have you sent me all the saved manuscripts now?" ”
"Hmm~ I don't have a word here now!"
"Whew~ Okay then! You can easily take a while, four volumes of content, and even if you send it quickly, you can send it for two months. But don't be decadent right away! Although you are doing well, if you can't get the seventh volume by the next month's deadline, I will come to your house to find you!! ”
"Don't worry! I'll give you the contents of Volume 7 next month. However, I have made an appointment to recommend the publicity! Mike reminded.
"You can rest assured! Our XX library is also a leader in the industry, and we will never talk without words. However, after the release of the second volume, if the situation is still so hot, animation is not far away. ”
"Really? That's great. Mike's eyes lit up.
"Don't be in a hurry to rejoice, I have bad news for you." The editor paused and said, "Your illustrator may be about to change, Shimazaki just resigned from her position as an illustrator on her own initiative, and then I can't contact her." ”
"If you can, contact her again. It's best not to change the illustrator, after all, you already have a tacit understanding of cooperation. But if you really can't do it, you can only change people~"
"Well, I see." Mike nodded.
"Alright, let's not talk about it! Don't bother me these days, I'm going to be busy selling the second volume, and I have to revise the 800,000 words from your bastard! ”
'Toot ~ Toot ~'
Mike closed his phone, turned and walked back to his room.
At this moment, Violet was eating strawberry cake in the living room, and when she saw Mike walk in, she immediately settled the cake in two bites, and then got up and came to Mike's side, reaching out for a hug.
Mike smiled and reached out to pick Violet up.
Although she was already eleven years old, Violet's mental age was no more than four or five years old, and asking for a hug was a normal way to be friendly to someone close to her.
"Are you done?" Fluent and crisp Chinese came out of Violet's mouth.
Within a month, Violet was able to communicate with Mike normally.
