Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Chess Game

In fact, sometimes changing a person is not only a dream, but also the things that can be seen everywhere around you but are often overlooked.

Yang Fan looked at the QQ dialog box that had not responded for a long time, and regretted what he said impulsively just now. After all, there is something else to dream of than his words. More impressive. It's just that he didn't expect that it was his words that made the Son of Heaven silently light a cigarette, because Yang Fan's reason moved him more than those so-called dreams that lived up to the hopes of readers.

A competent editor must always be in a particularly sane state and impartial in order to be worthy of each writer for whom he is responsible. The Son of Heaven is naturally a qualified and competent editor, but he finished reading Yang Fan's reply. But an irrepressible emotion poured out from the bottom of my heart.

That is to help this new online writer in the online literature industry and help him get the first place in this competition!

The smoke swirls around your fingertips, like a dream that you can't see, vague but beautiful. The Son of Heaven took one last puff of his cigarette. Then press the ashtray and reply vigorously

"Then let's get the first place together and create a myth!"

After Tianzi finished typing this sentence, he closed his eyes and began to think about how to make this book win the first place in this competition.

At present, the top five collections have reached an average of 30,000, and the first and second collections are 38234 and 34025 respectively. These two books are like mountains, blocking all new books. Now Yangfan's collection is 10842, which is far from the top five. And there are only less than 10 days before the end of the game, these 10 days, if Yang Fan wants to get the first place, he must raise at least 3000 collections every day, which is basically an impossible thing to accomplish.

The Son of Heaven lit another cigarette, frowning and kept thinking about the most suitable method for Yang Fan to improve his collection. In fact, there are many ways to increase the amount of collection, because the online article, to be honest, does not pay much attention to the writer's writing, as long as there are no too many flaws and omissions. He pays more attention to the plot and the taste of the reader's market.

The Son of Heaven thought for a while, didn't bother to eat lunch, turned out a pen and paper and began to write

"The Battle Plan of "Looking Up at the Stars"

He listed five

Article 1 Introduction

The second cover

Article 3, the first three chapters

Article 4 Personal Publicity

Article 5 Recommendation

These five points written by the Son of Heaven are the result of careful consideration.

First of all, the web article must have a good packaging. The so-called packaging is that the introduction and cover must either be pleasing to the eye, or it is eye-catching, since Yang Fan has signed a contract, then the website will definitely make a cover for his book, however, most of the covers set by the website are randomly repeated, and many times the covers given by the website are not as eye-catching as their own drawings.

Besides, today's online articles are too harsh for newcomers, and slow heat is not suitable for newcomers, after all, few readers will read the first 100 chapters, most of them are looking at the introduction book review and the first three chapters, and then consider whether to continue to read it. Although some people often laugh at the so-called "Golden Three Chapters", thinking that they are something that Xiao Baiwen values, most of the people who mock these ask themselves, will you be patient to read the first 100 chapters?

Needless to say, the importance of personal publicity and recommendation is needless to say, but sometimes, personal publicity is often more attractive to readers than the recommended position of mosquito meat recommended by those websites to test the waters.

The Son of Heaven carefully sketched the key points on the paper, and in his eyes, the most obvious flaw in Yang Fan's book was the introduction.

The introduction of Yang Fan's battle against the stars is

"A boy with a deep hatred in the sea of blood, fighting the enemy, fighting the sky, and killing an invincible road. Just to resurrect the dead childhood sweetheart!"

This kind of introduction made the Son of Heaven laugh dumbly. Because this kind of introduction is too long and too old-fashioned, it makes new readers feel that they have no desire to read it.

The Son of Heaven thought for a while, wrote a paragraph on the paper, and kept revising it. Then he called Yang Fan and asked Yang Fan to replace his profile with his.

The Son of Heaven wrote

"A young man looks up at the starry sky, he can't see the road in front of him, after all, there are countless obstacles ahead, there are countless enemies.

He can only fight the sky, fight the stars, and sweep away all the obstacles in front of him. Just to see her smile again:"

After the pen of the Son of Heaven, Yang Fan's profile rose to a higher level, and when Yang Fan saw the profile of the Son of Heaven, he couldn't help but admire his responsibility from the bottom of his heart. He did not copy the introduction of the Son of Heaven, but after talking with the Son of Heaven, he kept revising the introduction.

"It turns out that the editors in charge are so good. Yang Fan said to Lan with a smile.

Lan rolled her eyes and didn't speak, a trace of doubt arose in her heart. After all, in her cognition, it is impossible for an editor to take such care of her new writers. But watching Yang Fan and his editor-in-charge chat so happily. She didn't want to think about it either.

After chatting about the introduction, the Son of Heaven looked at the time and saw that it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, so he paused the discussion with Yang Fan first. He told Yang Fan to hurry up and find the censor editor to sign the contract. Then he didn't bother to eat and was going to go to the art department that made the cover, and asked to make a wonderful cover for Yang Fan.

Yang Fan reluctantly stopped chatting, as he stopped chatting with the Son of Heaven, he glanced at the computer taskbar, and saw a QQ avatar flashing non-stop, Yang Fan quickly clicked on it, and found that it was his own censorship editor.

Yang Fan secretly shouted badly, he had just chatted with the Son of Heaven too much, and he didn't see the news, looking at the censors and editors' incessant inquiries, Yang Fan quickly apologized sincerely. In his heart. He was ready to be scolded by the censors.

However, the censorship editors were not offended. Instead, he greeted him kindly, and sent a set of signing contracts, asking Yang Fan to sign the contract and send it to him within today.

After Yang Fan accepted the contract, he looked at the contract in black and white. He was very excited, this was the first time he had received the contract, he carefully accepted it, and then he quickly filled out the contract under the careful guidance of the review editor.

"It turns out that these editors are good people. Yang Fan looked at the contract and sighed with a smile on his face.

But are all the editors really good?

Yang Fan hurriedly put the contract in the USB flash drive, greeted Lan and Lin Wanting, and ran out excitedly.

Along the way, Yang Fan didn't care about eating, and he didn't feel tired, he just ran with a foolish smile in his hand.

In Yang Fan's mind, his future life and those editors who were patient and careful with him appeared. The smile on his face grew brighter and brighter.

After all, he felt that he had met some good editors who were willing to help him, and after all, he felt that he could not live up to the hopes that those editors had for him!

"Lao Wang, what's wrong?" A rich man over half a hundred years old in the XX Network Censorship Department looked at Lao Wang with a ashamed face and asked curiously, after all, in his heart, Lao Wang usually chats with newcomer writers, and his face is full of impatience, and his current expression is the first time he has seen it.

After all, they are already tired of facing countless new writers and countless books every day.

"Huh? When Editor Wang heard what the rich man said, he couldn't help but shake his head and said

"It's just a little sigh to see a passionate and energetic rookie writer. ”

"Hey, don't we meet these rookie writers with vigor and passion every day?" The rich man stood up and patted Wang Xianbian's shoulder, and then said, "It's a pity that those rookie writers with vigor and passion will gradually wear off their passion and vigor in this world. ”

"yes. Editor Wang said with a wry smile. But in the heart of Wang Xianbian, he kept saying that he was sorry. I don't know who the voice in his heart is telling me, I don't know who it is...

After the Son of Heaven finished looking for an artist, he hurriedly took two mouthfuls of food and returned to his place. I saw that Yang Fan's personal signature was changed to "left to send the contract"

When the Son of Heaven saw this, he frowned, and there was a sense of uneasiness in his heart. But soon that sense of unease disappeared.

Knowing that Yang Fan was leaving, the Son of Heaven could only put aside the first three chapters on the paper and personal publicity. He could only think about the last point. That's the referral bit.

Generally, as long as the contract is signed, there will be at least one recommendation position. And that referral lasts for at least five days, usually around a week.

Yang Fan will definitely have a recommendation position in these ten days, but I don't know what kind of recommendation position.

There are five types of referrals. The best is omni-channel blocking, although XX is only the fifth-ranked website, but he has two sub-sites, and the daily traffic of the two sub-sites is not low. The second is the homepage of the website. Then the third class is the destiny list of the classification and partition and the xx network.

And the bottom two types of recommendations, one is the so-called mosquito push, such as popular picks, boutique free, free new books, etc. The last one is some brain-opening recommendation positions.

In the speculation of the Son of Heaven, Yang Fan should be recommended to be ranked in the fourth and third heavenly mandate lists. After all, Yang Fan has a certain number of readers, and basically his writing can also reach the Mandate of Heaven list.

The Mandate of Heaven list is a featured list of xx.com, and it is a list that can only be entered by new books. Recommend the best of the ten new books every week. Each book can only be listed on the Destiny List once. Although the Mandate List can be applied for by the author through the author's background, in fact, the Mandate List is all decided by the editor.

Thinking of this, the Son of Heaven hurriedly sorted out the information of Yang Fan's book, and then he walked quickly to Wang Jingya and said seriously

"I'm going to apply for next week's Destiny List for "Looking Up at the Stars". ”

When Wang Jingya heard the words of the Son of Heaven, she was stunned, because this was the first time she had heard the Son of Heaven take the initiative to apply for a recommendation position for so long since she came to the editorial department.

"I'm going to apply for next week's Destiny List for "Looking Up at the Stars". The Son of Heaven saw Wang Jingya's appearance and said repeatedly.

"Oh, okay, I'll take a look" Wang Jingya clicked on the file on the computer and looked it up.

"How can that book be on the Destiny List?" said the bear's untimely voice again, and he walked over slowly

"If we let that book be on the Destiny List, wouldn't it be a smash of our own signboard?"

"Then what kind of book do you say can be on the Destiny List?" said the Son of Heaven impatiently.

"Of course, it's the new books of those old writers, and the books of those potential newcomers and famous artists. Xiao Xiong smiled and said to Wang Jingya: "Editor-in-chief, you are right. ”

Wang Jingya looked at Xiao Xiong and frowned, but she still chose to nod, after all, Xiao Xiong is right, basically all the lists of big websites are like this, this is an indisputable fact!

"This book has potential, I think. You can arrange it, as long as you give this book a chance, then he will definitely return you with a surprise. The Son of Heaven looked at Wang Jingya's expression and hurriedly said, Wang Jingya looked at the Son of Heaven and did not speak, she was thinking carefully about Xiao Xiong's ulterior motives.

After a while, Wang Jingya said, "I'm sorry that the position on the Destiny List is full next week." ”

When the Son of Heaven heard Wang Jingya's words, he opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything, and after a while, he said in a pleading tone

"Is it okay to push it in the zone? Really, as long as you give that book a chance, just a small chance, it's fine! After all, it's not easy for a new writer. ”

"Next week, the classification and partition will be full, sorry. Wang Jingya saw the pleading eyes of the Son of Heaven and couldn't bear to turn her gaze back to the computer screen.

On her computer screen, tomorrow's fate list and classification are strongly pushed, and there is a vacancy written on it!

"I'll give you the recommendation of "Genesis" for me as a newbie next week, Senior Son of Heaven!" a small voice came firmly.

The voice seemed to freeze the entire editorial department.

"How can this be..."The editor of the Son of Heaven seemed to hear the sound of heaven, and looked at the owner of the voice excitedly and movingly.

It was the French fries in charge of "Genesis" who spoke, and she said with a hint of childishness and firmness on her face, "After all, it is not easy for every rookie writer." It's okay I told me that I was a newbie and he would definitely listen to me. ”

The small voice of the fries editor carries pride and trust.

"Aren't you afraid that I'm a novice and will be surpassed by the big warlords?"

"No, I believe him, one less recommended position, he can also get the first place, Sister Jingya, give my recommended position to the predecessor of the Son of Heaven!" French fries' voice carried a hint of firmness.

"No, the technical department has done a good job of the cover of the recommended position before Thursday, and I can't give it. Wang Jingya shook her head and said.

"That..."After listening to the fries, he couldn't help but stomp his feet and continued, "Then make the cover name of "Genesis" the book of the predecessor of the Son of Heaven." ”

"Hahahaha, also P" The childish words of the fries filled the entire editorial department with laughter, but the fries, the Son of Heaven, and Wang Jingya did not laugh.

"Are you serious? French fries, do you understand that this recommendation may be the last recommendation for Genesis to participate in the competition, you can think about it, in case it is overtaken. I can't regret it!" Wang Jingya said seriously.

"I don't regret it! I'm sure he won't regret it either!" said the fries firmly.

"Then I..." Before Wang Jingya finished speaking, a serious and thick voice came.

"Wait!"
