Chapter 50: Growth

"I won't mention the real names of those veteran authors, I will mention the pen names, they are all people in the novel circle of Southern Province, if you usually like to read novels, you should have heard their names. Nandou, you know... She has cooperated with our book club for more than ten years, and has created many popular works, and she has created three novels with more than 200,000 sales in a single volume..."

There is also "Torii", a light novel writer who has risen in recent years and has also written novels that have sold more than 200,000 copies per volume in the past. ”

"There are also "many fish", I used to cooperate more with Qingkong Books, but after the contract with Qingkong Books expired last year, I went online with an editor of our bookclub.... Four years ago, he was also evaluated as one of the top ten popular novelists of the year in Southern Province, of course, that was his highlight moment, and then it was not as good as a year, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the number of his fans is still exaggerated. ”

.....

Tang Yin slowly said the names of the novel writers who participated in the competition this time.

For a journal of the level of Red Maple, as long as many works are serialized on it, as long as the popularity of the novel does not decline significantly, the novel writer will write the work until he is old.

After all, as long as it can be serialized in this journal, I will write a novel of more than 100,000 words a month, but the minimum remuneration is nearly 200,000 yuan, and no one will have trouble with money, as long as I can write, I will definitely be willing to write it.

But in the same way, the novels serialized in this novel journal also have very strict indicators, as long as the popularity of the novel does not meet the indicators, the book club will immediately take action, cut the novel in half, or transfer it to other low-popularity journals to complete the serialization.

But in any case, with three serialization spots appearing in such a week or two, it is no wonder that it has attracted the attention of so many popular novelists in Southern Province.

"Don't be so nervous, even though those people are well-known fiction writers in Southern Province. But you guys.. It's not bad! The results of the two of you in your debut as a novel, actually... It's amazing. Tang Yin saw the solemn expressions of the two and immediately said.

"Like Xia Yan, your youth journey, if there is no accident, the average volume sales will exceed 500,000 copies, this kind of achievement..... Among the dozen or so writers who participated in the competition at this serialization conference.... When it comes to historical achievements, you are also the first. ”

"And Song Lingyun, there is a high probability that your starlight yesterday will reach an average of 200,000 copies of the novel, which is not bad compared to them..."

Tang Yin said as she sighed in her heart.

Who are those people she mentioned earlier?

All of them are people who have been active on the front-line stage in the field of light novel creation in the past ten years in Southern Province.

These people who have not been active in the industry for many years can have this kind of achievement.

But Xia Yan and Song Lingyun, how long have they debuted? It's only been a few months, and when it comes to the serialization meeting, if the editors consider whose works can or can't be on the list from the author's historical achievements, Xia Yan and Song Lingyun are not inferior to them at all in this regard, but they have quite an advantage.

Because.... A genius who becomes famous in a book has its own filter halo, which book club doesn't like a young genius?

Especially Xia Yan.... The average score of the youth journey volume is 500,000, and it is very certain that it can be reached....

To be honest, the fourteen novels serialized in the journal "Red Maple" have this achievement after the release of one or two single books.

"But...."Tang Yin changed his words.

"Past achievements belong to the past."

"In the case of two novels of similar standard, the editorial department decides who can make it, and may consider the historical achievements of the creators. If the quality of the novel is not up to par.... If there is a significant gap between the works of the competitors and the works, then the historical results are useless. ”

Tang Yin looked at the two.

"In the light novel industry, it is the readers who really decide your fate, not us editors..... readers, don't look at how good a certain author's historical achievements are."

"Understood." Song Lingyun said.

"I see." Xia Yan sat on the sofa and nodded.

"And now.... The manuscript of your new novel will be brought to me for review first. ”

....

After two months, Xia Yan and Song Lingyun took out the game console again at Tang Yin's house.

But this time, for the first time, the attention of the two was not on the game, but on Tang Yin throughout the whole process.

The game PK of the two is also a variety of mistakes, losing the level of the previous battle.

After all.... Tang Yin is the first reader of the two novels.

"Xinghai", this is the title of Song Lingyun's new novel.

Like yesterday's Starlight, this work is also the kind of fantasy and love adventure novel, and the theme is very similar.

The chosen girl, the sea of stars dreamed of in her dreams, the fragments that saved the world....

Just looking at the elements contained in the novel, it is actually not too brilliant.

In fact, in a novel, whether you want to have a theme or a setting, it is already difficult to make a particularly innovative work.

Over the years, those particularly interesting settings have long been created by predecessors and used in novels, and the creators of the latter are at most changing skins and putting old wine into new bottles.

For example, the Gundam in the parallel world is used up badly, and the Attack on Titan replaces the Gundam robots with the power of giants.

But if the novel wants to be good-looking, it is important to work the setting, but what is more important is the characterization.

And the novel "Sea of Stars" .... The setting can only be said to have a certain novelty.

But in the shaping of the characters..... Compared to yesterday's starry sky, the improvement is too obvious.

After reading the first chapter of the novel, Tang Yin's nose was sour.

I took a deep breath before I changed my breath.,The first chapter is about two people.,One is the heroine's mother.,The other is the heroine's friend.... Song Lingyun really has you.

But Tang Yin then ..... There was also a wave in my heart.

"This guy... It's really amazing. This is her second novel, how can the character portrayal be so profound. ”

"And.... Who learned this out of context kung fu? Why is it so similar to Xia Yan? ”

Tang Yin put away the impetuous emotions in her heart and continued to watch

Twenty minutes later..... she finished reading the first three chapters of the novel "Sea of Stars".

After pondering for a minute, she breathed a sigh of relief.

A word came to mind!

Steady!

The setting, plot, rhythm, and character building all dazzled her.

If you can still see some obviously immature plots in the novel of Starlight yesterday, only newcomers will commit pits.

In this novel, Tang Yin almost didn't notice it.

During the serialization of the novel, readers on the official website commented that Song Lingyun was not seen in vain.

No one is born to know, and so is writing novels, and some pitfalls are only written before they know that readers don't like them.

But a talented person like her only needs a little negative feedback from readers to draw inferences and write the kind of plot that people can indulge in at a glance.

is different from Xia Yan, there are several reading and writing notes she made through readers' feedback during the serialization of yesterday's starlight.

But from Tang Yin's point of view, she was indeed surprised by her growth.

Song Lingyun has only been in the industry for four or five months.....

Is this the real light novel genius?

Soon, Tang Yin began to watch the new novel that Xia Yan brought over non-stop......

"We still don't know the name of the flower we saw that day!"

Tang Yin blinked.

This..... What is the title of the book?

Is it funny?

....
