Chapter 14: Cangshu Red is very coaxing

After the exchange with the editor-in-chief.

The editor in charge thought about it, and still told Li Yuntao on QQ: "Li Yuntao, there is a recommendation next week, and the effect is relatively good to test the water." When the time comes, break out a little bit of manuscript saving, one is even more impossible, at least two or three more every day!

"Received!" Li Yuntao received it for the first time, and he recommended it to test the waters, and the editor in charge also cherished the explanation, and behaved well.

You must know that the starting point network under China Literature, under normal circumstances, is a mosquito leg with a low effect, which is better than nothing.

Wait until the bottom mosquito pushes to perform better, and gradually upgrade the recommended grade.

Of course, the effect of testing the water recommendation is too poor, and the follow-up will gradually get cold, and the author either knows it and can't stick to it and end it hastily. Either stick to the shelves, look at the data after the shelves, and then decide whether to stick to the longer write.

After it is put on the shelves, it is mainly based on core sales data such as subscriptions to determine the recommended resources for subsequent serialized works.

Even if there are not many recommended books before they are put on the shelves, if the results are okay and continue to grow after they are put on the shelves, then more recommended resources may be added.

To a certain extent, the recommendation system of China Literature is both procedural and humane, and the fairness is no less than that of the college entrance examination mechanism.

To a certain extent, every time China Literature signs a new book and arranges it to be put on the shelves, it is a new opportunity for the author. If a book has good grades and can seize any opportunity, then it is possible to jump out of the bottom state and become a best-selling author.

......

After ending the conversation with the editor-in-charge, Li Yuntao felt that he was full of motivation to write, and he actually wrote more than 10,000 words for 5 hours in a row.

By then, more than 60,000 words had been saved. Li Yuntao polished the manuscript a little, and passed it to Cangshuhong in the Dream Eater World through the Wanjie Jiayuan Network.

After Cang Shuhong received the manuscript, after a series of polishes and revisions, the revised version of the text was handed over to Li Yuntao.

Sometimes, Li Yuntao was embarrassed to find that a chapter of 2,000 words only kept less than 100 words of the original text, and the other more than 1,900 words were overturned by Cang Shuhong and the language description was reorganized. Of course, this level of modification is only a few chapters.

But for most of the chapters, Cang Shuhong had to change at least half of the text, and then, replace it with her more delicate and exquisite writing, and improve the quality of the article by a few notches.

"Little Brother Yuntao, some of the recent chapters have become more and more sloppy. Do you even have to revise the typo sentence?" Cang Shuhong tiredly finished correcting yesterday's 6,000 words, presented it to Li Yuntao, and said, "You can't do this, this is your own work, you can't completely expect me to help you change the text." ”

This is because the new book is uploaded, and there are a lot of update tasks every day, so even if the writing is rough and unpolished, I have to upload it head-on. Li Yuntao patted his ass and said, "However, relying on the help of my good sister, the text you have changed has made our editorial editor-in-charge and editor-in-chief very appreciative, saying that the writing of the article is superb, and it may have the potential to become popular." ”

"That...... It's too exaggerated......" Cang Shuhong said with a little blush, "The revision is too rushed, if it takes a little more time, the quality may be higher." However, I think that the storytelling is more crucial, and the imagination of Yuntao's little brother is beyond my comparison. Polishing with better words just makes the novel play better. ”

Cang Shuhong is very coaxing, a few words of praise, you can help Li Yuntao revise the draft without pay, such a sister, although the age is actually a few years younger than herself, but it doesn't cost money to praise more, and she doesn't coax for nothing.

"Your editors over there should take this book very seriously, right?" asked Cang Shuhong.

"It's just a little bit more important than the average newcomer's book. ”

"So, what level of author are you in now, I'm more curious about the level of online authors. Cang Shuhong asked.

Li Yuntao thought for a while and said: "Let's briefly introduce it, it's just my family's words, not the authoritative division standard of the industry."

The lowest level of the online literature industry is newcomers, and most of these authors are just a whim, or because they want to make money and other factors, they start to submit their works to websites.

For the authors of this kind of submission, the website only reviews whether the manuscript is in violation of the rules, and the manuscripts that do not violate the rules are allowed to be uploaded and published on the Internet.

There are tens of thousands of new submissions every month, most of which may be a few thousand words at the beginning, and I don't want to write tens of thousands of words. Those who insist on writing it down should be in the minority. In the new book that can be written persistently, the editor-in-charge and editor-in-chief of each group of the website will probably select about 1,000 copies every month and sign up for them. Some people count the probability of signing a contract, about one out of twenty or thirty books can sign a contract, the probability of a popular type may be lower, and there are few unpopular types of books, and it may be easier to sign a contract. But it doesn't matter how difficult it is to sign a contract, what matters is the results of a book. ”

After that, more than 100 new books will be recommended every week. According to the type of works and data analysis, the editorial department recommends books with good performance to test the waters, and arranges the next round of recommendations. The performance is not very good, or it is just to boil the number of words and wait for the next recommendation to see if it can turn over. Either that, I couldn't survive it at all and gave up my work.

After all, recommended resources are limited, and the editorial office will only tend to favor commercially valuable works. Some editors are not optimistic about the work, and the readers are not optimistic about it, even if you use diligence and effort to win the sympathy of the editor, you may still get a chance to be recommended, but the chances are definitely much slimmer than those that do well......"

"The signed works are free to write for one or two months, and the number of free words is about two or three hundred thousand words, and after that, there will be a chance to be put on the shelves. Before it was put on the shelves, the main reference reader was the popularity of favorites, clicks, recommended votes, and other interactions. But after the sale is put on the shelves, the main achievement is linked to money, and the subscription that readers pay to read determines whether a book is favored by the editorial department. ”

"The kind that is ignored by subscriptions is basically difficult to get recommendations, and putting it on the shelves is equivalent to officially announcing it on the street. Below 1000 average subscriptions, it is equivalent to a newcomer. With an average subscription of 1000~3000, they are potential authors who can barely survive. More than 3,000 are high-quality products, and the potential of such authors is much stronger than that of previous writers. The editorial department will focus on cultivating authors and works above the quality of the work. ”

"Of course, the boutique is only a start, and there are god-level authors on it, and they are generally qualified to sign this kind of contract only if they earn millions of dollars a year now. Above the great god author, there is a platinum author, such an author, which can now be called a myth, of course, there is an editorial team above the author, and above the editorial team there is also China Literature Group, the industry's largest online literature giant. Above China Literature, it is the big Tencent ......"
