In the editorial office of Red Maple Literature, early in the morning, a group of editors gathered around the computer to check the readers' feedback data of the recent serialized books and periodicals of the book club.

The journal "Red Maple" is okay, anyway, the results of the novels serialized on it have been stable recently.

And the novel data of sub-top journals such as "Instant Fanghua" is actually the focus of discussion among the editors.

After all, it can be understood that in the five major book societies in Southern Province, except for the main periodicals such as "Red Maple" and "Blue Sky", all the other secondary periodicals in the company are cultivating a reserve army of novelists for the main journals of the book club.

Especially for periodicals like "Instant Fanghua", which has excellent sales and great influence in the book club, if a novel author's work can be serialized in such a journal and achieve certain results.

If this person's novels continue to be submitted to Red Maple literature in the future, it will be very likely that the editor will propose to be serialized in "Red Maple".

Now.... The focus of their discussion was the male high school fiction writer with the pen name "Yuan Qing".

"This is really a newcomer!"

"Sure enough, newcomers are all monsters, and the serial data of the youth journey feels very likely to reach the top on "Instant Fanghua"!"

"It's not easy to say, in terms of book ratings, the youth journey is undoubtedly high, but in terms of the number of votes from readers, it is still a certain gap from the top two. "Summer Fireworks", which has the second most votes in this issue, received 4,236 votes from readers yesterday. And the "Farewell Day", which has the highest number of votes, has a high number of 5,682 votes. The gap is quite obvious. ”

"The score of the youth journey represents its word-of-mouth, as for the popularity of the novel, it will rise with the increase in the number of serialized issues, and with its current momentum, the probability of the final score and the number of readers' votes for the top is actually quite high."

But unfortunately, this novel seems to be just a short work, and the estimated number of serialized issues is only a dozen issues, and it will be over in less than two months. You don't think that the third phase of Youth Journey can maintain an increase of more than 1,000 votes, and squeeze the second place in "Summer Fireworks". ”

"Only a dozen short stories? That's a pity, the summer fireworks and farewell days have been serialized for forty or fifty issues, and the number of fans of the novel accumulated is unshakable, and the readers of the journal of "Instant Fanghua" are actually relatively fixed normally, and the votes of readers who have increased in the number of readers of a novel are basically "defective" from the loyal supporters of other novels. ”

"If the journey of youth is serialized for a long time, maybe it can make the fans of "Summer Fireworks" and "Farewell Day" defect and switch camps, but if this novel ends with more than ten episodes..... That's another story. ”

"But with the popularity and rating of this novel, there is a high probability that the book club will soon start the sale of a single book of the youth journey, and the serial content of more than a dozen issues should be able to come out with three single books...."

"The popularity and support rate of a novel in a serialized journal will be affected by the sales of the serialized journal itself and the length of the novel's serialization. But with the issuance of a single book, it's not the same .... That thing is an independent book and magazine, and readers won't pay too much attention to it, and judging from the score of Youth Journey, I feel that this novel will sell a considerable number of single books in the market at that time. ”

"Maybe in Southern Province, there will be a total sales of 100,000 copies?"

"If you really want to estimate this data, then be bold, don't be too poor in imagination, really release a single book for the youth journey, I think the total sales will exceed 150,000 copies."

"Forget it, if it's a single book, it's useless to pay attention to it now, the current serialization of this novel is the most critical."

"As long as the follow-up plot of the youth journey does not collapse and the popularity stabilizes, then as long as the quality of this high school rookie novelist's future works is enough and wants to be published in "Red Maple", there will be no qualifications problem."

"I said, why is everyone talking about the journey of youth? The second issue of "Yesterday's Starlight" written by another newcomer Ning Yun is also good, with a score of 8.2, which is still the fourth place, but the number of readers' votes has risen to 1993 votes, ranking fifth among the thirteen novels in this issue. In fact, this achievement is also quite perverted, okay, Ningyun is also a newcomer. ”

"So, indeed. Two rookie monsters appeared, the big monster Yuanqing, and the little monster Ningyun? ”

"I'm a little envious of Tang Yin, how could she be so lucky to find such two good seedlings. If these two people are trained, maybe they will have the opportunity to publish a new work in "Red Maple" in the second half of the year. ”

.....

Within Red Maple Literature, there are many periodicals and a lot of editors, but basically most of the editors do not even have a novel that can be serialized in "Red Maple".

After all, the number of serialization places is limited, and most of the editors compete to come and go, in fact, they just want to be able to discern the pearls and select a novel to be listed in the "Red Maple" journal.

In that way, the status in the company is also there, the performance is also there, and the bonus or something has been doubled several times, so like Tang Yin, who has signed two obviously powerful rookie novelists in a row, everyone is inevitably envious and jealous.

Tang Yin came to work today, and naturally felt the changes in the company's workplace atmosphere.

Of course, the reason why she became a novel editor in Red Maple Literature was purely out of interest and hobby in this industry, and as for the salary and bonus, she didn't think much of it.

However, if she can personally train a new novelist to publish a novel in "Red Maple", then her sense of accomplishment must be full.

After sending the text message of the youth journey and the results of the second issue of Starlight yesterday to Xia Yan and Song Lingyun, Tang Yin entered the work state.

......

"Hey, hey... Have you seen it? Yesterday's "Instant Beauty", I feel that the journey of youth was written too much to my heart, really, this is the best of the thirteen novels. ”

"I think so too, and I really feel a lot after reading the second chapter."

"But I think yesterday's Starlight is more interesting."

"Come on, I'm a die-hard fan of 'Farewell Day,' don't boast about other novels in front of me. ”

...

In the class, Xia Yan heard some voices in the girl group early in the morning about the youth journey novel.

As a contributor to the youth journey, Xia Yan naturally paid close attention to the relevant remarks, but on the other hand, some discussions among the boys in the class also came out.

"I really don't know what that kind of love, what is the meaning of the novel of a girl in love? The girls still love to watch it. The king of novels has to be "The soul wears through another world, and the demon king is actually my long-lost father!" "It's good-looking, this novel is the best love work of the harem of youth that real men should see."

"Harem? Oh, if you want to talk about the harem light novel, "The last man in this life!" "This novel is called hearty. All the men in the world are dead, and the ugly women are also dead, leaving only a bunch of beauties and the world where the male protagonist survives.... This novel is called cool. ”

"The author of this novel has three wrong views, isn't this pure obscenity? Can this novel be published too? ”

"Not to mention publishing, now this novel is a small fire in the whole Dragon Country, it is sold in all provinces, and the sales volume in the whole country is not bad at all."

....

Xia Yan listened carefully for a while and shook his head.

Although the two-dimensional industry of the Dragon Kingdom is indeed quite prosperous, how to say it, the types of popular works and themes, many times even he is speechless.

I can only think in my head.

"I don't know when I will be able to find some of the world's top works in Yuan Qing's memory, and see what the results of that parallel world's top works will be if they are put in my world. Will it be unadaptable? Or is it a change that leads the culture and genre of two-dimensional works in my world.... At least those otherworldly toilet paper literature has been praised by so many people in the Dragon Country light novel industry, I really can't bear it. ”

As a reader before, there was no way, Xia Yan could only endure this status quo.

But now that he has become a light novel author, to be honest, Xia Yan still has a certain fantasy. Even if it's just an insignificant person, I want to try it and see if I can change the industry environment of the Dragon Kingdom through some excellent works in the parallel world.
