Chapter 28 The Editorial Department's Intentions
"Why did you publish a single book for these two novels so early? They don't have much serialized content now, so you can wait for the popularity to ferment a little longer, isn't it better to publish a single line? ”
"That is, although the results of the two newcomer novels are indeed outstanding, after all, they are only serialized works in the journal "Instant Fanghua", such an operation, is the book club paying too much attention to these two novels?"
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with it, and it won't be too much of a problem to release it early anyway."
"It's a little weird."
"Maybe the senior management of the book club has seen the rise of several new novelists in other companies in recent years, so they also want to vigorously promote the ability of our book club to cultivate new talents, right? These two high school newcomers are indeed quite powerful, and if they are properly promoted, it is easy to set up an impression on other young creators in the novel circles of Southern Province that our Red Maple Literature attaches importance to young people and is not limited to qualifications. ”
......
Many editors at the bottom were discussing in low voices.
Seeing this, Han Yun, who was sitting in the main seat of the conference hall, was no longer silent and explained one more sentence.
"Starting in the second half of the year, the selection of the biennial Dragon Country light novel "New God Ascension" will begin. Although it is only March now, these two people, their age, conditions and potential are all met, and the book club gives them a little resource tilt, and slightly adds some publicity to their novel single book, so that their influence can spread a little. It is also intended to let them represent our Red Maple Literature in the selection. ”
As soon as Han Yun said this, the editors below immediately understood the bookstore.
"I really didn't expect this incident, it's another year or two!"
"However, although the novel award competition jointly sponsored by several top book clubs in the Dragon Kingdom has only started in the second half of the year, the book club looks up to the two newcomers Ning Yun and Yuan Qing so much?"
"These two have only been debuting for less than a month, and the book club already has such expectations for them?"
"It's not that the book club really has confidence in these two people, but it's that in the past two years, there have really been no young newcomers rising in our book club, and the award selection of this "new god ascending" is looking for novel creators who have debuted in the past two years and are under the age of twenty-four. ”
"So I issued a single book for the two of them early, and I want to make the single book better, and see if the two can have someone and have a chance to qualify?"
"It's true, speaking of our book club, it's been six years, and no newcomer has signed a novelist to qualify for this election."
"I think it's hanging, these two people are too newcomers, and they don't have such a big influence to be selected to represent our Southern Province to participate in this award event."
"Forget it, in the past two years in our book club, there really haven't been any young newcomer novelists, although there is a high probability that these two people will be defeated, and a dead horse will be a live horse doctor."
.....
"New Gods Ascend", the name sounds powerful, but it is actually not a selection award for top novelists.
It is an award competition jointly initiated by several giant book societies that have great influence in the whole Dragon Country, such as Starry Sky Novel and Qingze Library, to select potential new novelists.
After all, the Dragon Kingdom has a strong two-dimensional culture, and each province has a so-called award activity such as selecting the new novelist of the year in each province.
But those are regional events and don't have much impact.
However, the selection activity of "New God Ascension" is different, there are only three qualified new novelists in each of the seventeen provinces of the Dragon Kingdom, and after winning the competition with competitors in their own province, they can obtain the seed quota of their own province and participate in the selection of the event on behalf of the province.
The award selection process is also very simple, serializing new novels.
The seed novelists selected from each province will serialize their latest short stories in a novel journal called "New God Ascending" jointly issued by several giant book publishers.
After the end of the novel's serialization, the readers of the novel will vote and score, and finally the majority of readers will decide who is the ultimate king.
The sales channels of those giant novel book companies are all over the Dragon Country, and even have a lot of sales in many overseas countries, not to mention the awards for this new novelist competition jointly organized by them, the works participating in the selection, at least in the promotion and sales within the Dragon Country, that is not a problem.
Even the entries of new novelists can sell millions of sales per issue during the serialization of the novel, with the joint promotion of the sales channels and publicity departments of several giant book publishers.
This award is undoubtedly an opportunity for new novelists in various provinces to leap into the dragon gate. Let their entries not be limited to the lack of influence of provincial serialization platforms, and have the opportunity to appear in front of novel fans across the country......
Moreover, novelists who can achieve excellent results in this novel award selection will even be noticed by those giant novel book clubs of the Dragon Kingdom, so as to get the opportunity to change their creative careers as novelists.
From a historical point of view, many of the novelists who have achieved excellent results in the "New God Ascension" novel selection in the past years are now active in the first-line camp of the Dragon Kingdom light novel industry.
But... Those things are a bit far away.
Hongfeng Literature did not consider what outstanding performance Xia Yan and Song Lingyun could achieve in the "New God Ascending" novel award event.
Red Maple Literature has been in this award for six consecutive years, and in the three full periods of this award selection, the newcomers cultivated by the book club have not even obtained the seed qualification, and a place to participate in the selection competition on behalf of Southern Province has not been obtained.
Six years, three tournaments, but there are nine seeded places.
Now several other book clubs in Southern Province are laughing at the fact that it is not good for Hongfeng literature to cultivate newcomers.
Now that there are two talented newcomer novelists in the book club, Han Yun's meaning is very clear, appropriately tilt a little resources, and see if the influence of the two can be expanded in the next half a year, and strive for one of them to obtain seed qualifications.... That's enough.
As for the results of the novelists' works under the command of the book club being serialized on "New God Ascension" after they really obtained the seed qualification?
Oh, she won't think much about it, anyway, according to historical results, there is a high probability that it will not be too good.
Tang Yin, as the directly responsible editor of Xia Yan and Song Lingyun, is actually confused herself.
Red Maple Literature: This is really ..... A dead horse is a live horse doctor.
First of all, the three places in the province of Southern Province are judged by the editorial department of the five major book publishers in Southern Province based on the comprehensive results of the rising new novelists in Southern Province in the past two years.
Although Xia Yan and Song Lingyun have potential, they have only debuted for less than a month! Han Yun actually hit these two people with her idea?
"Half a year is not a long time, but the market situation can change during this time." After Han Yun looked at Tang Yin, he said to everyone.
"I'm just taking precautions, if the results of these two people are not as good as I imagined, then the book club will also recommend others to compete for the three seed places in this southern province."
But.... Is it also possible that after half a year, these two people will become famous? After all, the two of them have only been serialized in such a short period of time now, and they have already gained a lot of fans, and what will happen half a year later.... Who knows?
However, Han Yun didn't say the latter paragraph.
