Chapter 18 The reader is happy, the author is miserable!

When the bell rang for the end of class, it was already 5 o'clock, and the four classes in the afternoon were finished and the students began to leave school.

Yao Youyou is not on duty today, there is no need to stay at school on duty, she happily packed her schoolbag, and then took out a thick novel in her schoolbag, with a happy smile on her face.

"My brother will definitely like this book "Covering the Sky", and my brother will definitely praise it after reading it."

"Yoyo, let's go shopping after school! It is said that there is a new fragrance in the poetry blue series, and I want to buy a bottle. A cute and cute girl with short hair ran to Yao Youyou and said happily.

Yao Youyou shook his head and refused:

"No! Wang Wu, I still have to bring dinner for my brother, so I don't have time to go shopping. ”

Wang Wu is a famous beautiful girl in the class, and she is good at dancing and singing as her name suggests. She and the other two classmates in the class, Li Yun and Qin Ling, are called the 'Lily Three Princesses', and of course they are also known as the 'Lily Three Princesses' The purity symbolized by the lily, they are the pure three princesses.

"Brother? Yoyo, when did you have a brother? Wang Wu looked at Yao Youyou in amazement, it was the first time she had heard that Yao Youyou had an older brother, and she hadn't had it before.

Yao Youyou rolled his eyes and said:

"Yes! I've always had an older brother, and I'm still my own brother, but I've been away for the past 5 years, and I've only recently come back. ”

"Then what does your brother look like, how old is he, is he handsome!" Wang Wu's eyes were very curious.

Yao Youyou smiled as he put his schoolbag on his back.

"Of course handsome, my brother is the most handsome, he is only 20 years old now."

"How handsome, is it more handsome than Zhao Hao?"

"Of course! My brother is very handsome! Yao Youyou put on a big smile.

Zhao Hao is a well-known handsome guy in the class, and he is in good shape, excellent in study, surrounded by many girls in the class, and has received a lot of love letters, not only from classmates but also from the same grade, even if the second and first grade sisters have sent him love letters.

Wang Wu's curiosity was seduced at once, and he grabbed Yao Youyou with both hands and said coquettishly:

"Yoyo, take me to see your brother! I want to see your brother. ”

"No! My brother is in the hospital and cannot be disturbed. ”

"Stingy !!" Wang Wu pinched his waist and was very angry.

"Okay, Wang Wu, it's a big deal, I'm going to go shopping with you on Saturday." Seeing that her best friend was angry, Yao Youyou couldn't help but say helplessly, in fact, she also wanted to buy a lipstick.

"Then it's decided!"

The two walked towards the outside of the class while chatting, and when they walked out of the school gate, Yao Youyou went to a restaurant, bought a dinner and then came to the hospital......

......

Yao Ran opened "Infinite Terror" and watched it silently, and Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu sat on his shoulder and watched the same.

"Zheng Zha? ...... It can't be the same name and surname! Wait a minute...... Infinite horror, the name I have an impression of. Yao Ran couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the name of the protagonist, and then remembered that the name of this novel seemed to be the same as the world he had experienced before.

"I didn't expect it to be the world of fiction." Yao Ran said with a sigh.

"Are you saying that all you experienced in that main god space was a fictional world?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked at Yao Ran curiously.

Yao Ran thought for a while and said:

"Probably! I don't know. ”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu continued to read the novel, and then said a little inexplicably:

"This novel has been published, are you sure there will be no copyright issues? It was written in the plot of the movie, and even the names of the people did not change. ”

Yao Ran shook his head and said:

"I won't care, the state doesn't pay attention to this aspect, piracy is very serious, and it's a miracle that the novels serialized on the website can have 1,000 subscriptions for 1000 people. Even the published books have pirated books. ”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was a little confused, and said very speechlessly:

"It's so serious! And do you post all your books on the website? Is it free? How to make money? ”

Yao Ran said calmly:

"It's the author who posts it on the website, and the editor can sign a contract if he reads the novel, and then the website sends a text message in the background, prints the contract, sends the contract, sends the courier, and the editor returns the contract after the contract is signed, and then serializes it to about 300,000 words on the shelf, at that time, it costs money to buy the novel, about 5 cents a chapter, if the subscriber exceeds 1000, it is 50 yuan, and the website is divided into half and the author is divided in half. Why is it different for you there? ”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu nodded.

"We all write a volume by ourselves and submit it in person, wait until the editor reviews it and then discuss the signing of the contract, and eat royalties for publishing, comics, gamification, and animation. Copyright protection is good...... But you're weird, aren't you? There are only 1,000 subscriptions to the books collected by 10,000 people, and what about 9,000 people. ”

Yao Ran complained powerlessly:

"1000 subscriptions are a miracle, in fact, most of them are only about 100-200, and there is a possibility of continuing to serialize to 1000, and the remaining 9000 will probably disappear in the world line in addition to throwing themselves into the arms of pirated websites."

"Tragic!" Kasumigaoka Shiyu sympathized with these authors.

Yao Ran nodded and continued to watch.....

"Huh? Gene lock? There is no such thing in the main god space! There's no side plot either! Understanding the plot? Inexistent! I don't remember the worlds I entered that had such a thing as a story. ”

"This book is very novel in terms of setting and plot, and it seems that the characters are well portrayed, but the text feels too straightforward. ...... And the chapter of this book is less than 5,000 words, which is too little! Kasumigaoka Shiyu commented while watching, and finally couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's really like your light novel writers there write 10,000 words in a chapter, and the readers here can't stand it, and 2000-3000 is the most suitable chapter here." Yao Ran was not surprised, and explained very calmly.

Kasumigaoka Shiyu thought for a while and said:

"A chapter is 3,000 words, 5 cents a chapter, how many chapters do you have to write in a finished book? How many thousand words? ”

Yao Ran thought for a while and said:

"If you hit the street with less than a million words, you can finish the book, and if you can barely make ends meet, you will keep writing it, two or three times a day. If it is popular, it will probably be able to write more than 3 million words, and there are also 5 million words. ”

"Wait! Two shifts a day? Do you write every day! There are no time offs or anything like that. Hearing about two or three shifts a day, and then thinking about how this place works, Kasumigaoka Shiyu suddenly came up with an astonishing answer.

"Huh? Take time off to get a piece of work? If you really say it, the majority of readers don't spray him, and his books don't want to be recommended on the website anymore, so as to be hung out of the rankings by other books, how can you have time to collect materials, you should be like the authors there there, come to a vacation at every turn, go to the beach for a swim, sunbathe or something. Sorry there isn't here, there's only a holiday storm here, and then a day for the sake of grades 30,000 words. ”

Kasumigaoka Shiyu was suddenly shocked, writing novels and writing 30,000 words every day, which is also too terrifying.

"I can only say that your readers here are very happy, and the author is miserable."

The two continued to watch until the door was pushed open again, Yao Youyou walked in with a schoolbag and a pocket containing dinner, and was surprised to see Yao Ran reading.....
