Chapter 2 Writing
Her name....
Called Yuan Qing....
Yuan Qing?
Xia Yan, who was writing his desk, remembered the name of the girl whose soul memory was silent in the depths of his mind at a certain moment.
It's like suddenly remembering the name of his kindergarten friend, Xia Yan has an inexplicable sense of excitement, but the excitement quickly subsides, and the rest.... All that remains is distress.
Many ordinary people think that writing novels is quite easy, and writing hard is to get more than 10,000 words a day.
But think about it, 10,000 words is about equal to 12 800-word essays, how many students are poor in words and 10,000 words for writing 800-word essays for a Chinese test paper..... If you don't exercise accordingly on weekdays, it will be unimaginably painful to write.
Xia Yan is in this state now, he thinks that it is easy for him to compile the content into a novel version of the text according to the "Youth Journey" animation plot in his memory, but in fact....
The characters, the environment, the demeanor, the details are completely different from his usual Chinese writing.
Haven't eaten pork, haven't seen a pig run?
Xia Yan had never written light novels before, but he had read many light novels in the Dragon Kingdom, and his writing strength was not low, and his appreciation strength was not low.
I spent two hours writing something out of it, and when I look back.... What is it written about? I want to die of embarrassment.
"Sure enough... It's not that easy. Xia Yan actually expected this situation.
He still has a certain degree of confidence in his language skills, but good language does not necessarily mean that the description of the novel will be very smooth.
And although Xia Yan adapts the light novel according to the animated plot in his mind, it does not mean that the novel he writes will definitely have the same excellent viewing experience as the original.
is like the girl named Yuan Qing who fused with Xia Yan's soul, there is an animation called five centimeters per second in her world, and after the animation achieved results, two different versions of the official novel were actually adapted.
One of the versions is a minor version written by Makoto Shinkai, the original creator of the anime, and the other is a novel written by a professional novelist based on the original anime ....
They are both novels of the second five, with the same story line, but the two official novels are taken seriously.... But there is a completely different reading experience.
Xia Yan let out a long breath, and he looked at the pile of words he had just written on the table.
There are too many inconsequential depictions...
While writing and changing, Xia Yan gradually became tired, until he couldn't bear it until he went to bed, and he only wrote about 2,000 novel articles by hand according to the animated plot in his memory.
It's actually quite slow.
.....
In my sleep...
Xia Yan once again incarnated as the girl named Yuan Qing in her dream.....
The timeline of this dream did not continue the part that got off the plane and went to bed last night.
This time, she was playing a gunfight online game in front of the computer desk, controlling female characters such as Cui Zhiyun and Anna, and killing zombies.
"Hey.... Recall the memories you watched about the second half of the animation of the Youth Journey! You're playing a gunplay game with yarn on your side. ”
Xia Yan complained frantically in his mind, but it was obvious that the girl who was just in her memory would not be disturbed by his words, after all, these were just memories.
Early in the morning, Xia Yan wakes up, cs, cf, dungeon, Genshin Impact.....
In the past eight hours, the girl played the game in her various accounts that were full of matches, and did not continue the follow-up plot of her youth journey at all.
However, Xia Yan thinks it's also interesting to watch others play games, and he also watched it for eight hours, and the satisfaction of girls playing games will be transmitted to Xia Yan, so in fact, his game experience is also very fulfilling.
After stretching, he looked at the desk again.
"Alright, come on! Today, I have to write at least the first few chapters of the novel. ”
Xia Yan worked hard to write, his learning speed was also quite fast, and the writing that was jerky last night also became smooth.
It's really Kavin, I don't know how to describe a certain text, so I directly pick up the existing light novel works in the Dragon Kingdom for reference, and see how others deal with it.....
Gradually, there are more and more manuscripts on Xia Yan's desk, and the novel adapted from the campus, society, and environment of the Dragon Kingdom Youth Journey has also entered a smooth mode of creation.
However, these are only the first drafts, and after writing, you should check for typos, polish the article, and double-check.
Three days later......
Xia Yan almost converted the content of the first 5.9 episodes of the Youth Journey that the girl named Yuan Qing in his soul had watched before into a novel text that he could recognize the quality.
Why Episode 5.9? Because at the end of the 6th episode of the anime, Xia Yan hadn't finished watching it, and the girl went to sleep and cut him off there.
And these three days .... Xia Yan only substituted the girl's memory in her sleep last night, and went to the comic exhibition to participate in cosplay activities...
As for the first two nights, I just slept normally, and nothing happened.
This also made Xia Yan understand that this kind of situation of chasing through Yuan Qing's soul memory in his sleep is beyond Xia Yan's control, at least at this stage, and can only see if the situation will change in the future.
As for Xia Yan's review of his dream last night, to be honest, this feeling is very wonderful, it is a new feeling that Xia Yan has never experienced before, incarnated as a black silk cute girl in his soul memory, wearing a gothic loli costume in the comic con to enjoy the amazement of a group of passers-by, taking photos, taking pictures, and pasting, hugging, and playing with high-quality female coser friends that Yuan Qing met in that world.....
Syllable!
Xia Yan gave himself a slap in the face.
"How can you envy that life? You're a man! Xia Yan looked at himself in the mirror.
I was scared of the idea that I had in my heart to wear gothic loli women's clothes and participate in comic con to be interesting.
Am I a pervert?
Xia Yan took a little more time to adjust his mentality.
There are five days left before the start of school, and his time is not so free after the start of school, and he is now... All you need is the remaining five days to submit your own light novel.
....
The Dragon Country, one of the most powerful countries on the planet, has a population of 1.5 billion, accounting for one-sixth of the world's population.
The overall national income has basically entered the high-income class, which belongs to the upper reaches of the world.
After the people got out of the survival dilemma, like many middle- and high-income countries, the sports, sports, and entertainment industries flourished in this country.
Among them, the two-dimensional industry with games, comics, novels, animation, etc. as the main body has developed into one of the pillar industries of the Dragon Kingdom in the past 30 years.
The people's acceptance of the ACG industry is high, and the natural status of the creators of ACG works is rising.
Well-known novelists, cartoonists, and animation creators enjoy a high status in the country, and of course, these people also earn huge sums of money.
The reason is very simple, the island country in the memory of the girl named Yuan Qing is also a country with an extremely developed two-dimensional industry, but how many people are there in that area? Just 100 million people.... can create a group of well-known and high-income anime, comics, and novel creators in that world.
However, the Dragon Kingdom has a huge market of more than one billion people, and the creators of all kinds of two-dimensional works naturally earn far more than that world.
Of course.... Signing a contract with a top publishing book club is still far away for Xia Yan, and those light novel serial publication platforms that sell millions or even tens of millions of dollars per issue, the editorial department of others will not use Xia Yan's works as a newcomer.
No matter how good your work is, how attractive the opening plot is.
Newcomers, it means a great risk, unfinished, broken changes, creators play missing, responsible editors are all over the world looking for novel authors to deliver, this kind of thing is countless in the Dragon Country light novel world, famous creators are all this virtue, newcomers....
The giants of the industry don't take risks and work with newcomers.
So Xia Yan didn't have the iron to submit the manuscript he had spent a few days writing to those top book clubs.
And the headquarters of those top light novel serialization companies are basically concentrated in several first-tier cities such as the imperial capital and the magic capital, and Xia Yan is too slow if he submits it by mail.
His goal is to be located in the capital of Southern Province, the capital of Nancheng, five large-scale light novel serialized book clubs.
In the light novel industry, the competition is also huge, except for a few top light novel publishing houses, the works can be eaten all over the country, and they can sell well in all provinces.
Most of the small, medium, and large light novel publishers with their headquarters located in the local provincial capitals are popular in their own provinces or in the provinces near their home bases.
In fact, this is also normal, how can any company have the funds, strength, and heritage to establish a national or even global sales network?
No matter what the industry, it is very difficult to establish a sales channel, and to be influential in the local region is the result of a long time of fighting with other competitors.
However, although the influence of this kind of local novel serialized book club in Southern Province cannot be as influential as the top light novel publishing book publishers such as "Starry Sky Novel" and "Qingze Library", the distribution channels cover the whole Dragon Country.
But these five, at least within the scope of the base camp of the Southern Province .... The sales volume is not cheap, but the sales volume of their local fiction periodicals is not lower than that of those top national periodicals in the southern province.
Of course, the quality of periodical serialized works must be much worse, and the reason why the sales volume is similar is that local publishing companies only use their own sales territory, establish a local sales channel network, periodical publicity, discounts, etc., and naturally have certain advantages over those top book publishers who are distracted by the national market.
Since the internal strength can't be compared, let's cultivate the external strength.....
After finding a printing shop to make seven or eight copies of his handwritten manuscript, Xia Yan took out his student bus card and walked out of the gate of his community.
....
