A perfect life starting from a light novel writer
Chapter 45 Gifts and Results Released
The boy and the girl, at this moment, both thought of similar things.
The atmosphere became a little subtle.
Xia Yan and Song Lingjun, the two met twice a week at Tang Yin's house, and every time after solving the problem of the novel manuscript, they played games together until they were exhausted.
Can this be considered friends? Or is it just a simple relationship of competition between novelists, or. There is no relationship at all, and the essence is just strangers who have met a few times!
"Okay, why are you two so depressed suddenly, it makes me very embarrassed. This long-term contract, don't sign it, now I want to talk about the second thing." Tang Yin hurriedly livened up the atmosphere.
It has been almost two years since she graduated from college. Because of work, Tang Yin often forgets her happy time on campus.
But the cooperation with Xia Yan and Song Lingjun, two high school students, in the past two months often reminded her of her school days. Although they didn't spend much time together, this was also the reason why her favorability towards Xia Yan and Song Lingjun increased so quickly. After all, they were like her juniors.
"The second thing tonight is that we celebrate the completion of the two novels, Youth Journey and Yesterday's Starlight."
As Tang Yin said this, she took out a big poster from her bag, spread it out, and temporarily pasted it on the wall.
Xia Yan and Song Lingjun looked at it with strange expressions.
This was probably something Tang Yin made with her poor photo editing skills, and then found a printing shop to print it, with the serialized results of Youth Journey and Yesterday's Starlight, the poster pictures, and some words of blessing on them.
To be honest, Xia Yan and Song Lingjun felt a little strange about this form of celebration. Although it was awkward, they were still very happy.
"What? Unhappy?" Tang Yin rolled her eyes at the two of them.
"Well, haha, I'm very happy.
"Me too."
Xia Yan and Song Lingjun both smiled.
"So reluctant?" Tang Yin sneered.
But she didn't keep it a secret.
She got up and ran to her room. Half a minute later, she took out two beautifully decorated gift boxes and gave one to Xia Yan and Song Lingjun.
"What is it?" Song Lingjun looked a little confused.
"Gifts. As your contracted editor, I have been busy working with you all this time. Now that the novel is finished, and I have a good relationship with you, I'll open it and take a look." Tang Yin smiled proudly.
Song Lingjun hesitated for a while after hearing this, but still couldn't resist her curiosity and opened the gift box.
What she saw was a brand new game console and a game cartridge.
"The game console you play every day when you come to my place is a limited collector's edition. I can't bear to give it away. So I bought a regular version of the game console and the "True Iron Soul" game cartridge for you. This antique is still being produced, which only shows that there are more and more nostalgic players. Anyway, take this thing back and practice more in the game, and then I hope to see you beat Xia Yan in this game next time. "Tang Yin said.
Xia Yan also immediately opened the gift box she gave him, but found that there was an anime figure inside.
The figure of Lauro, the protagonist of a popular animation seventeen years ago.
"I heard you say that your favorite childhood animation character is him. It happens that a friend of mine has this thing in her collection, so I shamelessly asked her to mail it to me." Tang Yin looked at the two of them and smiled.
"Congratulations on the successful completion of Youth Journey and Yesterday's Starlight. I also hope that your career as a light novel writer will be smooth sailing. "
Whether it was Xia Yan or Song Lingjun, they were really happy at the moment.
But they couldn't smile. They looked at the gift given by Tang Yin for a long time without saying a word.
After all, for both of them, it was the first time in their lives that a friend gave them a gift.
Time passed.
Both novels, Youth Journey and Yesterday's Starlight, have entered the later stages, and the bookstore has also greeted fans in advance in the journal.
Yesterday's Starlight will publish the final chapter next Wednesday, and Youth Journey will publish the final chapter next Sunday.
Originally, every Friday was the date when Xia Yan and Song Lingjun went to Tang Yin's house to hand in their manuscripts. This has been the case since the beginning of school.
But now.
For the first time since the beginning of school, the two of them were at home on Friday night. Nothing to do.
No writing novels, no need to submit manuscripts and discuss plots with Tang Yin, no need to compete with each other on the game console at Tang Yin's house.
The past two months of light novel serialization career seemed like a dream.
There was no feeling of relief, but both of them felt that something was missing.
It always felt that life was lacking some fun.
But both of them had a clear timer in their hearts, which kept putting pressure on them.
Tang Yin had told them before that there would be two vacancies for serialization in the Red Maple journal in mid-to-late May!
If you have any ideas about these serialization spots.
That time, there was only more than a month left for the two to create new works.
"Xiaojun, don't you go to piano tonight like Fridays before?"
Song Lingjun's mother knocked on the door and brought her boiled glutinous rice balls.
"No, I'm obsessed with studying recently." Song Lingjun said softly.
"My daughter is really amazing. She is really different from those poor students of the same age who like to read novels, anime, and play games. But although she is good at studying, she also needs to combine work and rest. If you like, I will enroll you in an equestrian class. Recently, many of my friends have posted excellent photos of their daughters riding horses in their circle of friends. I feel that you must be better than those people." Song Lingjun's mother smiled proudly when she heard this.
"Not for the time being." Song Lingjun responded when she heard this.
After a few pleasantries, Song Lingjun's mother left the room disappointed.
After her mother left, Song Lingjun immediately took out other books from the box on the desk and began to indulge in learning.
The Road to Writing
Three-Act Plot Construction Skills.
Light Novel Writing Guide.
Writer's Life
All of them are some well-known novel writing learning books in the Dragon Kingdom Plane at home and abroad.
Her previous light novel writing was all based on talent, and she did not learn these in a systematic way, but now.
She knows very well that it is too inefficient to work behind closed doors. Learning from the excellent creative experience of predecessors is the fastest way to grow.
In the next month or so, she had to devote herself to the study of novel creation! She had to be truly obsessed with learning.
Only in this way could she surpass Xia Yan!
Xia Yan was packing some personal belongings at home.
After all, he would be moving in more than a week.
This house where he had lived for ten years was about to be sealed and auctioned.
He felt a little sad and reluctant.
But there was no way, he was a law-abiding high school student.
He had to find a new place to live.
Monday was the day when the single volumes of Youth Journey and Yesterday's Starlight were released for a week.
Because there was no work on the weekend, the book club started to collect the data that should have been calculated on Saturday on Monday.
Tang Yin came to the book club early in the morning, waiting for the first week data of the single volumes of the two novels to be released.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the staff of the book club were still connecting the data with the sales party.
The statistical data was released at around ten o'clock.
This data was connected to the internal computers of the book club, and any editor could check it in the internal system.
In addition to Tang Yin, many editors of Red Maple Literature were interested in the single volume data of the two novels.
After all, the popularity and number of fans of the two novels serialized in "Momentary Fanghua" cannot be accurately reflected at all.
There are more than a dozen serialized light novels in the magazine "Momentary Fanghua".
It is really difficult to judge how many of the 300,000 sales of the magazine are contributed by fans of the two books.
But the sales of single volumes are different, very direct and clear.
Therefore, the light novel industry in Longguo basically equates the sales of single volumes of novels with the industry performance and status of novels.
Tang Yin was a little nervous. Although she knew that the performance statistics had been released, she still hesitated for a minute and did not open the data statistics table.
But other editors in the public office area had already started to make noises.
"Really? So high?"
"I knew it. The bookstore notified the printing house to reprint the single volume of Youth Journey on Tuesday. The sales must have exceeded expectations, but I really didn't expect it to be so much higher than expected."
"And Yesterday's Starlight. Although the single volume sales are not as good as Youth Journey, its later plot quality has also improved dramatically. The score has risen to 8.9, the journal ranking is second, and the number of votes has also come to the third ranking. As expected, the single volume sales say it all. These two people are really more exaggerated than each other."
The editors in the public office area began to stir.
Tang Yin no longer hesitated and clicked on the data table.
Two rows of data came into view.
Youth Journey Volume 1, total sales in the first week: 180,186 copies.
Yesterday's Starlight Volume 1, total sales in the first week: 65,982 copies.
