The writer industry is similar to many other industries.

Low-level writers are just codewriters, but the higher you go, the easier it is to make money.

Now He only took 10,000 yuan in royalties, because his book has a small number of words, the price of the book is low, and the share he gets is also low, and the first printing is only 10,000 copies.

When these indicators roll up, the income also starts to roll up.

Tang Mingyao's sales of 160,000 copies are already able to crush more than half of the traditional writers of this era, and it is not an exaggeration to be able to share more than 200,000 royalties. After all, the readership is there.

When the next two volumes are finished, he can earn hundreds of thousands more.

So what are you obsessed with money? It's not enough to spend.

However, this aspect of publishing is not finished.

A few days later, Tang Mingyao received two new emails on the Internet.

It turned out that a publishing house approached him, saying that he liked the simplified Chinese copyright and wanted to help him publish it.

This new book has been serialized until now, and it is only enough to produce a simplified version, and a publishing house has come to the door, and Tang Mingyao feels that he has begun to become a little famous in the book market.

There is also an email from the traditional editor of the Yuanyuan community, which has completed the upgrade this year, established Xianwang, and is on the right track and rising rapidly. He said the same thing, the traditional Chinese copyright that he wanted to take.

However, when Tang Mingyao asked how much he could give for this book, he still said that he would buy it out, and the price was 120 yuan per thousand words.

Tang Mingyao refused without hesitation.

He wasn't going to be in such a hurry to sell the rights to this book.

The last book opened the traditional market, and sales have been soaring recently, a million-word one, has been out of twelve volumes, and the highest sales rushed to the second best-selling list, and it seems that it can rush up again.

At this time, it is time for him to wait for the price to sell.

This new book is quite different from the martial arts one, imitators may have, but this is not a complete routine, the main thing is to look at the plot and pen power, put it for a year or two, and are not afraid of being outdated.

When dealing with the email, Tang Mingyao also saw Jin Wei on the Internet who he hadn't seen for a long time.

This guy took the initiative to talk to him: "Hello senior brother."

"Long time no see, what are you doing?"

"Write. Senior brother, can you please ask me how to keep my passion when writing a long story? I wrote hundreds of thousands of words, but now I can't write, and the thought of having to hand in tens of thousands of manuscripts every month makes people depressed. ”

"Why can't you write?"

"It's just that I've thought about the plot, but I didn't feel it when I wrote it, and I was not satisfied with it when I wrote it."

"Go back and find the feeling before you start writing."

"I can't find a feeling."

"It's hard to solve, so you have to adjust it yourself. You go through the outline and see if the plot has no central idea, or the main line is too scattered, and the main character has no purpose, so it can't be written. ”

"It's possible. I'll look back and think about it, thank you, brother. ”

Tang Mingyao said you're welcome.

Jin Wei said again: "By the way, senior brother, there are many similar to you on the market now, and there are two similar routines, and there are two of them in serialization alone."

"Two in a row?"

"I don't deliver as fast as you, I have to submit two issues of the magazine twice a month, and I can't hand it over, so the editor will take someone else's top. The first half of the month serializes mine, and the second half of the month serializes someone else's. ”

Tang Mingyao was stunned.

Also, Jin Wei is not very good at using a computer, according to the minimum standard of serialization, at least 30,000 words per issue will be delivered, and 60,000 words a month will be ordered by him, and he can't hand it over, and cross-serialization is also a way.

He said: "Similar is similar, it doesn't matter if you follow the trend."

Jin Wei said: "The plot design is similar to yours, and the power system is not much different, even the name of the protagonist is similar." Now the protagonists in several books are surnamed Lin, and those named Lin Fan, Lin Feng, and Lin Xuan all have ......"

Tang Mingyao: "......"

The power of following the trend is infinite, and his, has it been imitated to this extent?

Jin Wei then sent a link.

Tang Mingyao copied to the browser to open, is the URL of a forum post, the title is:

The content in it is roughly what Jin Wei said, and a large number of imitators have emerged, and even the protagonist's name is surnamed Lin.

In the following reply, someone ridiculed: The Ancestor of the Mountain, the Train King, the ancestor of the Lin family, Lin Feng, and the descendants of the family: Lin Fan, Lin Feng, Lin Xuan...... In the future, this family will continue to grow, and I think one day, the Lin family will dominate the world!

Someone else replied: The train king has created opportunities for many people to eat, and these followers should make offerings to him and burn a few pillars of incense every day to worship.

Tang Mingyao saw a black line.

Sand sculpture netizens have a lot of fun, and the comments can't bear to look at them directly.

He closed the post and replied to Jin Wei: "I see it, follow the trend." Some people follow the trend, which shows that there is a market for this kind of routine, and when readers get tired of reading it, naturally no one will write it. ”

Jin Wei said: "Senior brother, you are so generous!"

Tang Mingyao silently said that I am all following the trend, and I am not qualified to care whether others follow me or not. It is also a good thing to carry forward the routine in advance.

I turned off my computer and my life was back on track.

One weekend in late September, Rowan Xi dragged him to a coffee shop early in the morning.

The latest modification of the uniform was made, and she was going to see the finished product.

The coffee shop is also open in the morning, but the working hours of this group of waiters are a bit staggered from when Luo Wenxi first went to work.

After arriving, the store manager took out the changed uniform and asked the two of them to check it.

Two waiters came around and said, "I tried it before, and this one looks so foreign." Xiaoxi is really level, and the grand prize of our store is waiting for you to help us get it back. ”

Luo Wenxi took the clothes, flipped them over for a while, and said, "Sister, you can wear them out again and take a look."

The young lady went happily.

After a while, she came out in new clothes, and compared with the waiter next to her, the clothes on her body suddenly gave people a difference between fashion and country clothes.

Tang Mingyao couldn't help but nodded.

This dress is really good, it is a notch higher than the first version that Luo Wenxi was fined. Take it to participate in the competition, not to say that you can't win a prize, at least no one will dare to participate in it if you say it's so ugly.

"Okay, since everyone thinks this version is good, then I'll send it out for the competition in two days." The store manager came up to me and said, "I hope I won." ”

Luo Wenxi said: "Hopefully, I tried my best anyway."

After staying in the store for a while, the two of them returned and walked back.

Passing by a newsstand, Tang Mingyao went over and bought the latest issue. Recently, he has not been serialized in this journal, and no sample issues have been sent, and he has been missing many issues.

There are so many works on the Internet that follow the trend, so he bought a copy and came to read it.

Luo Wenxi was also next to her with great interest in choosing what she liked, and suddenly her eyes stopped at a magazine and said, "Boss, bring me a copy of this fashion magazine."
