A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

During the New Year's Day holiday, Xia Yan's company was on holiday. As the chairman of the company, he was even smarter than the employees. He turned off his work phone directly to avoid having to call some partners for conference calls during the holidays.

In the evening, it was still snowing lightly in the Magic City area, but Xia Yan's house had already arranged all the holiday decorations and lights, and there was a large table full of food on the table.

"Wow, this is really unexpected!"

Mo Ran looked at the dishes on the table with an expression of disbelief.

"Tang Yin, you actually have this skill?"

"Hmph, I studied in the school cooking club for half a month when I was in college. I don't know much, but I can handle this table no problem." Tang Yin wore an apron and brought out a bowl of green soup.

Xia Yan also took a look. It was a very homely meal. His knife skills, appearance, and fire control were all at the level of a normal person. But inexplicably, Xia Yan, Mo Ran, and Song Lingyun all felt excited in their hearts. .

Judging from the current net worth of the four of them, Xia Yan is worth more than 10 billion. Even Mo Ran, the poorest, has only taken a small share of the royalties from Hunter and Initial D in recent years, and only has a share of the comics single volume. It also made her assets exceed 100 million.

On weekdays, everyone ate in restaurants. Wherever they went, they were guests of others, and they were treated to big fish and meat. They were tired of eating that, but seeing Tang Yin's table of normal people's meals, her appetite became more obvious.

"It's been a long time since we got together like this." Song Lingjun rolled up her hair around her ears and glanced at Xia Yan.

"Just like what is said in Xia Yan's work Steel, if you want to get something, you have to pay something. If you want to earn more wealth, it only costs a little time, which is already a very small price." Mo Ran sat on the table As soon as I sat down, I acted like a rice cook, and said while eating.

"Actually, we should be fortunate that we have all graduated for a year or two, and we are still in contact. It is rare to be able to have dinner together. For example, my three best friends and roommates who were in the same dormitory have stopped contacting me. "Mo Ran thought of something and her expression was slightly disappointed.

There were some things she couldn't say. When several of her roommates saw that Mo Ran and Xia Yan had such a good relationship, they all wanted her to help introduce them. After all, Xia Yan was apparently single in Long Country, and he and Mo Ran were just normal. In a cooperative relationship, with Mo Ran's relationship, it is normal to have some strange thoughts. However, after Mo Ran rejected these requests, the other party's attitude towards her changed. Even now, they have not contacted her for half a year.

Mo Ran sighed in her heart that maybe this was the price, but if she chose it ten thousand times, she would definitely not regret cooperating with Xia Yan.

In the Dragon Kingdom, at least in the big storm of the two-dimensional entertainment industry, Xia Yan is undoubtedly the eye of the storm.

He himself is relatively Buddhist. As long as others do not affect him, he will not care about the lives and work of his subordinates or those around him.

But in fact, as a popular person who easily rakes in hundreds of millions of profits, Xia Yan has a large group of sniffing beings waiting for opportunities.

Apart from anything else, the middle and high-level employees of the company who saw Xia Yan's obedience, when they left Xia Tang Animation to discuss cooperation with outsiders, they all held their heads high and were full of arrogance.

Even Tang Yin, who has been busy in the kitchen for two hours cooking with a friendly expression, is already an extremely famous figure in the Dragon Kingdom two-dimensional industry because she is solely responsible for the external cooperative development of Xia Tang Animation. Many people on the Even if the chairman of a downstream cooperative manufacturer invites her to dinner, he has to make a reservation and queue up.

"Actually, they are all the same." Tang Yin also said after hearing this.

"I graduated much earlier than you, and I have no contact with any of my classmates. Occasionally, one or two will come to me to borrow money."

The four of them were sitting at the dining table and talking, each feeling touched by this.

After all, any one of the four of them belongs to the outright rich class even by the standards of the Magic City, and they must be sensitive to changes in the people around them.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that." Xia Yan quickly changed the topic, otherwise it might turn into a complaint meeting later. This is New Year's Day dinner.

"Speaking of which, Song Lingjun, your last work has been animated."

"Yes." Song Lingyun was eating next to him and nodded slightly after hearing Xia Yan's words.

"However, the ratings after the broadcast were average."

Xia Yan's expression condensed when he heard this.

Song Lingjun has been in the light novel industry for seven years now, and unlike Xia Yan, who is distracted by various industries, she only works in the new novel industry.

Of course, there are also some animation production companies who take a fancy to her popularity and strength and will ask her to customize animation scripts.

But Song Lingjun's main business is definitely novels. Up to now, in the Longguo light novel industry, her influence among active novelists ranks among the top six.

But even so, compared with Xia Yan, the gap is still huge. Xia Yan's works are casual

A changing animation has a ratings of more than 5%.

But Song Lingjun’s works, even if they are supported by novel fans, are still hovering around 4%.

Xia Yan looked carefully at Song Lingjun's expression and eyes, and found no unwillingness or annoyance in it, and he felt relieved.

This guy has finally grown up!

In the past, if I talked about this kind of topic, I would definitely be calm on the surface, but in fact, I started to reflect and force myself on the inside. Now I seem to be able to accept it calmly.

"Who can compare with Xia Yan, a pervert like you!" Mo Ran interjected from the side at this time.

"Honestly, if everyone in the Dragon Kingdom's two-dimensional world is arguing about who is more powerful, they will exclude you by default, otherwise this topic will not be discussed."

Xia Yan looked slightly embarrassed when he heard this, feeling that Mo Ran was bragging about him. .

In fact, it can't be said that Xia Yan is now invincible. If he only released one of these works such as Hunter and Sword, it would be fine, but there are more than ten or twenty top-level works all added to Xia Yan.

This is very scary. Not to mention the Dragon Kingdom, even in the island country of the parallel world, if anyone can produce more than ten or twenty top-notch works in his twenties, he will be praised to the sky. go.

Xia Yan and Tang Yin were eating with Mo Ran and Song Lingjun. After chatting about these gossips, Xia Yan looked at the darkening sky outside the house, paused, and then said.

"In fact, this time we are all together. Besides eating, there is one more thing I want to announce." Xia Yan looked at Mo Ran, and then at Song Lingyun.

I sighed in my heart, but I didn't hesitate.

"In the second half of this year, Tang Yin and I will get married."

Xia Yan and Tang Yin had made this decision for some time, but they just told them now.

As expected, the scene was completely silent as Xia Yan expected.

Song Lingjun's fingers holding the chopsticks tightened slightly, and then relaxed again, with a slightly sad look in his eyes.

Mo Ran was even more exaggerated. The soup spoon dropped directly into the bowl.

"Marry. Marry?" Mo Ran asked exaggeratedly.

"Well, get married. It will be in June or July, but the specific date has not been set. We still have to see the company's business situation at that time. If you are not satisfied, it will be during this time." Xia Yan picked up a bowl He said while drinking the soup.

In fact, Xia Yan can't say that he doesn't understand the situation at all.

Whether Mo Ran or Song Lingjun, although they have a cooperative relationship with Xia Yan, they have each made so much money after graduating so long, and they are still willing to live in this villa with him. Their thoughts It's not hard to guess.

He would also hesitate whether his decisive actions would hurt the friendship between several people, but he still made up his mind to cut through the mess quickly and cut off some unnecessary thoughts.

Mo Ran looked at Xia Yan and then at Tang Yin, feeling a little empty in her heart. She and Xia Yan had known each other for so many years and had collaborated on two comics. When they were in the training school, they had to discuss the details of comics processing almost every day. They all have to spend more than two hours together in the studio.

There must be some good feelings towards Xia Yan, but they are kept secret and never revealed.

Now that I heard the news about Xia Yan, I actually felt a little uncomfortable, but I still congratulated Xia Yan with a smile on my face.

"Congratulations, you and Sister Tang Yin have finally reached this point."

Song Lingjun on the side looked at Xia Yan's face carefully, and after a few seconds, she spoke softly.

"Congratulations."

Tang Yin looked at these two people and sighed in her heart.

Xia Yan felt relieved when he saw that there was no big problem with the atmosphere at the scene.

He only has three or five friends, and he really doesn't want his friends to be unable to do things because of emotional problems.

Mo Ran's words were fine. It was just a matter of feeling uncomfortable for a while and then it would be fine. Even Xia Yan had a crush on the girls in his class when he was in junior high school. People would also feel uncomfortable when they were in love, but as time went by, they forgot about it. He wasn't worried about that.

As for Song Lingjun, Xia Yan has made her attitude very clear in the past two years, and with her brain, it is difficult for Xia Yan to think that she will really be in love to the point of not caring.

But in short, this long-awaited gathering was safe and sound, but it always felt weird for a few people to stay together afterward.

After a few people chatted for a while, at night, they went back to their rooms to rest.

night

Xia Yan lay on the bed, hugged Tang Yin's smooth body next to him, thought for a while and then spoke.

"Do you think I really have the qualities to attract girls?"

"Stop being so pretty." Tang Yin complained and laughed after hearing this.

"Although you are a bit handsome, you are still within the normal range. The reason why girls around you tend to be fond of you is mainly because they are fans of two-dimensional culture. Through your works, they pay attention to you as a person. Over time, It’s normal to have good feelings.”

"However, everything is limited to this. Whether it's Mo Ran, Song Lingjun, or your fans in the Dragon Kingdom's two-dimensional industry, they have to recognize the reality." Tang Yin held Xia Yan's chin with her fingers , in the dark room, her expression was beautiful and seductive.

"They have no chance."

Seeing her expression, Xia Yan couldn't help but kissed her face directly.

In Mo Ran's room, she couldn't sleep at night and drew comics on her own work table, but no matter how she drew, she was not satisfied with the drawings.

In the end there was just a sigh in the room.

"Xia Yan is an idiot, but this is also his advantage."

In Song Lingjun's room, she sat in front of the bed, looking at the misty moonlight in the sky and the falling snow.

My mood gradually calmed down from the panic I felt after eating before.

She did still like Xia Yan, and she had thought that Xia Yan might one day break up with Tang Yin.

But in fact, she knew very well that her idea was wrong.

The moment Xia Yan revealed the news that she was going to marry Tang Yin, her entire mind went blank. However, after returning to her room and now, after the panic disappeared, her heart was not as uncomfortable as she imagined.

Perhaps, in her imagination, she hoped that Xia Yan would give up Tang Yin and choose her, but this was just an emotional appeal.

If Xia Yan really gave up on Tang Yin one day, would she like Xia Yan like this?

The moonlight poured into the side of Song Lingjun's face, and the moon was reflected in her pupils.

Half a minute later, her eyes became slightly moist, but she quickly suppressed them.

"You have to be happy. Your two best friends are getting married. It would be too narrow-minded if you are still unhappy." Song Lingyun took a deep breath.

"There's still half a year left. Adjust your mood and don't end up crying at their wedding."

Three days before New Year's Day, most residents of Dragon Kingdom had a good time relaxing.

After New Year's Day is over, all walks of life are back on track again.

Various animations including the spring schedule have also been released one after another.

But because several of Xia Yan's old works have never been completed, the focus of discussion on the entire forum is still on Xia Yan's two masterpieces: Steel and Slam Dunk.

only.

After the first week of January, Xia Tang Animation once again released big news after a year.

Xia Yan's three animated film works "Howl's Moving Castle!" "Millennium Actress" and "Suzume House" projects were approved.

Animated movie?

The old thief hasn't produced any new works for a whole year. All the animations are serialized.

Why are you suddenly thinking about making animated movies now?

"Nothing to say, I am 100% looking forward to it."

"The products produced by the old thief must be high-quality."

"The last time I watched an animated movie by an old villain was To the Moon. In a blink of an eye, several years have passed."

"The old thief is holding his breath to do big things!"

"Animated movie? Disappointed. Three animated movies only last a few hours. It's better to have one more TV animation."

"Don't ask too much. The old thief is serializing swords, hunters, slam dunks, and steel. It's already outrageous. Don't ask too much of him. Just balance work and rest!"

"Just don't be too greedy. I don't want the old thief to die from overwork."

"Now it's enough for him to keep showing one work every year. It's a steady stream!"

"That's right, don't be like those cartoonists who suffer from occupational diseases after drawing just one cartoon. I still hope that the old thief can take it easy and make three animated movies. This amount of script writing should not be too stressful for him. But it doesn’t matter if he’s working on a new work or a full-length one, the number of serialized works he has now is already terrifying.”

"Looking at the names of these three works, I feel they are quite subtle. Moving Castle? It feels like a science fiction work. Millennium Actress, uh, the name is very weird. And Suzume Todori, I know I can't understand it. I don't know what it is."

"Okay, don't make wild guesses. You won't be able to figure it out anyway. Three works have been approved. All you have to do is support them after they are released."

"I don't know what kind of results his animated movie will do after it is released, given Lao Zei's current popularity."

"Actually speaking, the old thief Xia Tang Animation Company is also very active now. Basically, there are several animations being broadcast continuously. In the game industry, Pokémon will also have animations and games by the end of the year, and there is no news about Flower Name and Magic Circle. A live-action TV series has been approved and actors will be auditioned in February. There are many TV series stars in Long Kingdom watching, and the competition is fierce. "

"Don't worry about the lack of works. With the works of Lao Zei, TV series adaptations and live-action movie adaptations, you won't have to worry about running out of things to watch in three to five years."

"Actually, I would rather watch a live-action TV series of Lelouch, but the cost of a live-action version of this thing is probably too high and there are too many war scenes. I hope the old thief can realize my wish one day."

"When it comes to live-action TV series, I'm all about Steel Refining. We must turn Steel Refining into a live-action drama, you old thief!"

The news that Xia Yan's three animations and movies have been approved has sparked heated discussions among Dragon Kingdom fans about the live-action adaptations of his previous works. This has left the production team behind the new spring animation series that has been airing in the past few days helpless. .

How is this competition?

Dragon Kingdom animation fans would rather pay attention to the adaptation of Xia Yan's work a year or two later, but turn a blind eye to the new animation that is right in front of them now.

However, the news of the three animated film projects was only active for a few days and then subsided. After all, the latest episodes of the two works "Metal Steel" and "Slam Dunk" were aired again.

but

Xia Yan brings more surprises to Dragon Kingdom fans.

In mid-January, Xia Yan posted the news through his social media account.

The account officially released photos of Tang Yin and herself wearing couple's clothes and

Decided to get married in the second half of the year.

This is the real bombshell for Xia Yan fans.

Especially for his female fans, it's unbelievable.

The idol I was still a fan of yesterday told me that she is getting married today?

Isn't Xia Yan single? How come you suddenly have a girlfriend and then suddenly decide to get married?
