A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

The next day. →

The news that the two-volume single volume of Unheard Flowers sold over 1.1 million copies across the Dragon Kingdom in the first week, and the average sales volume of each volume in the first week was 550,000 copies, has made a wild move in the light novel world of Southern Province.

The whole southern province light novel world was completely boiling.

This first week's data almost marks the certainty that the final volume of this novel will sell more than one million copies.

Major media, book reviewers, forum homepage websites, all came to the novel of Unheard Flowers and started to brag about it.

[A genius rarely seen in ten years in the southern province light novel industry! Yuanqing, a talented girl who has been surprising readers since her debut. 】

[Unheard Flower Name has no publicity outside the province and still has strong sales figures. The charm of "Lin Yi", even without publicity, can still capture the hearts of all book fans who see her. 】

[A novel with an average sales volume of over one million copies has always been an important symbol of the achievements and status of Longguo light novelists. But because there are only three bookstores in the Dragon Kingdom with sales channels covering 17 provinces across the country, there are four more bookstores that can spread the sales channels in more than eight provinces of the Dragon Kingdom. These seven novel bookstores are all in the Magic City and the Imperial City. Enterprises in the region have attracted most of the top novelists in the Dragon Kingdom to join. Therefore, in the past forty years, 99% of the novels that have sold more than one million copies per volume came from the seven major book houses of the Dragon Kingdom. Today, we may be able to see the miracle of a new talented person, Yuan Qing, whose novels are unknown and were born in Hongfeng Literature of Southern Province, but can achieve this sales target. 】

[Perhaps in just one month, we will witness the birth of a local novel in the Southern Province with an average sales volume exceeding one million copies. 】

[Unknown Flower Name is a phenomenal light novel in the Nan Province region. It is hard to believe that such a work was written by a high school girl. Moreover, she will also represent the Nan Province region in the "New God Ascension" novel selection next spring. Activity, perhaps "Yuan Qing" will become an iconic figure in the light novel industry of our southern province in the near future. 】

[The light of the southern light novel world! "Yuanqing!"]

For several days in a row, novel websites, forums, and readers in Nan Province have almost praised "Yuanqing" and "Unheard Flower Name" to the sky.

In the novel industry, performance means everything.

Xia Yan even clicked on the news channel of Nan Province TV today.

At a glance, I saw that Nan Province TV News Channel was broadcasting content about the recent popular novel "Unheard Flower Name" in Nan Province.

[A story praising friendship, love, hard work, and struggle, a tear-jerking novel about redemption and salvation. The delicate inner world of a high school student novel creator has never been revealed. This is a novel that has recently exploded in Southern Province. Local light novel. 】

Originally, Xia Yan was drinking water and watching with great interest the TV station showing off his work.

But when he saw the scene of the bald middle-aged principal of Nan Province No. 3 Middle School being interviewed by a reporter, Xia Yan squirted out and couldn't hold back any longer.

He wore a bald head and talked in front of the camera, looking confident.

[Facts have proved that our school can not only cultivate top students who are admitted to Imperial City and Magic City University, but also cultivate outstanding students who have made great achievements in the fields of novels and art. This is our school's response to the official call of the Dragon Kingdom, and many Focus, multifaceted, and diversified to improve students’ quality education. Cultivate and guide students to show another great teaching achievement]

"You can really boast!" Xia Yan was shocked for the first time by his principal's shamelessness.

Obviously he doesn't know who "Yuanqing" is.

But he can say with such certainty that "Yuanqing" is an elite student trained by the school's teachers.

The news station has to report on matters from all walks of life. It is impossible to report a large amount of space on a novel. Two minutes later, the screen switches to another news.

But this is enough to illustrate the popularity of Weiwen Hua Ming in the southern province.

"Five hundred and fifty thousand copies in the first week?" Xia Yan still felt a little dreamy when he recalled this data.

Suddenly becoming a popular light novel writer in the southern province, Xia Yan was actually not only happy but also a little stressed.

Because I have the baggage of being an idol!

Dozens of millions of book fans across the Dragon Kingdom may be paying attention to Xia Yan. Whatever novels he writes next and what content he creates will not be as casual as before when he was a newcomer.

Xia Yan took a sip of coffee, thought about it for a while, and started writing quickly.

After all, he will write the first chapter of the novel "To the Moon" within November.

Then in early December, you have to submit your manuscript to the Imperial Capital area through Hongfeng Literature.

The "New Gods Ascend the Ranks" activity is conducted through periodical serialization.

Seventeen regions, a total of fifty-one entries, fifty-one works, all bound in one novel for sale and serialization.

Therefore, the organizer has strict requirements for the number of words in each chapter of the novel. The number of words in each chapter cannot exceed 1.50,000 words. The total number of words in each serialization of the fifty-one novels will be within 750,000 words.

This journal is not a profit-making journal, so the printing and typesetting are mainly practical, rather than pursuing beauty. The journal is originally bound with large paper, and the typesetting of novel articles will be as dense as possible without affecting reading. dense.

But even so, a journal with six to seven hundred thousand words would still be a big volume.

If there were no word limit for each chapter of the novel, the book would be like a brick.

And the serialization of this journal is not a three-day publication like Hongfeng, or a weekly magazine of other regular journals.

But the tenth issue.

After all, this journal must be delivered to all regions of the Dragon Kingdom through the offline channels of the organizer "Joint Committee of the Seven Major Book Clubs of the Dragon Kingdom", so people will not work too hard for a non-profit journal.

Therefore, one issue is published every ten days, and the total number of issues of the journal is also determined.

That’s ten issues.

So the competition rules are very clear.

Each contestant is required to write a short story with a minimum number of words, but no more than 150,000 words. In ten issues, a total of three and a half months of serialization time

Ba Shu 69 new

See whose work attracts the most readers, has the highest support rate, and has the highest ratings.

Come and compete to find out who is the being who has reached the highest level in the "New God Ascension" selection.

The immediate test for Xia Yan was that he had to take the essence and discard the dross of the game plot content of "Go to the Moon" and adapt it into a novel of more than 100,000 words, divide the novel into chapters, set up foreshadowing, and tell the story clearly. .

Of course, what's game content that wouldn't be useful for a novel adaptation?

Of course, those insignificant RPG battles involving squirrels in the wild, or those boring puzzle-solving sessions in the game's plot were either changed or deleted.

In fact, it is not easy either.

But fortunately, unlike the original serialization of "Unheard Flower Name", there was a serialization meeting to review it, and there was pressure to cut it in half after the serialization, so Xia Yan was not nervous.

From his perspective, he is still confident in this work.

If the name of a flower is not heard, it can be popular in the dragon country. Then it can be done by going to the moon.

On the other side. Song Lingjun’s home.

She was under a lot of stress during this time.

The results of the unnamed single book really stimulated her.

Unheard of Hua Ming’s sales performance both inside and outside the province are excellent.

But Her Starry Sea, after the single book of the novel was released, sold an average of 140,000 copies in the southern province in the first week, and an average of 30,000 copies in the first week outside the province.

Although judging from this situation, there is no problem that the final single volume of her Xinghai will sell an average of 500,000 copies.

But the gap from Weiwen Huaming's estimated average volume of 1.5 million is too big.

What she has been dreaming about when sleeping these past few nights is about her new novel.

After losing to Xia Yan twice in a row, she was no longer as blindly confident as before.

Xia Yan is still her goal, but she will never have the arrogant idea that she can surpass Xia Yan as long as she "works hard" and "seriously".

But she understood, if she wanted to target Xia Yan.

Maybe I have to try my best to tap out all my novel writing talents and potential, and maybe I will have a chance to defeat him.

This time the selection of "New God Ascends to the Ranks".

Song Lingjun's mind recalled the lingering, confident and stress-free face on Xia Yan's face when he helped him compose music.

Although the competitiveness in my heart when facing Xia Yan has not diminished, in fact, my confidence

Not as high as the previous two times.

Or rather

Even if I still can't beat him this time. But

"Xia Yan, this time he is on the national journal stage of "New God Ascension". Will he lose to other provinces and places like the Imperial Capital and the Demonic Capital, a new light novel writer who has a huge number of fans in the entire Dragon Kingdom? ? For example, the Kang Ning we met at that comic show? "

Thinking of this, Song Lingyun was a little annoyed.

It was no problem for her to win against Xia Yan, but she actually didn't want to see Xia Yan lose to someone other than herself.

"Stop thinking so much. You have to hurry up and come up with a plot, an outline, and write a new novel." Song Lingyun let out a long breath.

There was something she felt was magical.

The more pressure Xia Yan put on her, the more she felt that her creative desire and potential were being stimulated.

During this period of time, I obviously felt that many interesting ideas about the conception and settings of my new novel had appeared in my mind.

November 19

On the day when it will be one month away from the release of the Unheard Flowers single.

The sales volume of the single volume of "Unheard Flowers in the Dragon Country" has officially exceeded one million copies per volume.

This news spread wildly among people in the novel circles, forums, and Yuanqing’s fan groups in Jeonnam Province that day.

And in the entire Dragon Kingdom light novel industry

Many people are also paying attention to this news.

During this "New God Ascension" selection event.

Among the fifty-one contestants in total, six were contestants from the Magic City and Imperial Capital regions.

Although the oldest of these six people is nineteen years old and the youngest is seventeen years old, six people.

In the past writing history, the individual volumes of their respective best-selling works have all achieved sales of one million copies.

These six people were, before this day, the only six people among the fifty-one new light novelists who participated in the competition to have the average single volume sales of more than one million copies.

But today, among the participants, the number of six people who achieved this achievement has become seven.

Moreover, "Yuanqing" is the only novelist in the "Achievement Group of Achieving Sales of One Million Volumes" who has not cooperated with one of the "Seven Major Book Publishing Houses in the Dragon Kingdom".

It is not difficult for the past novels of these six people to achieve an average sales volume of one million volumes. After all, as long as their novels are sold through the distribution channels of Longguo's "top book publisher" that they cooperate with, each of them sells five to one million copies in seventeen provinces. With an average volume sales of 60,000, the total average volume sales will exceed one million.

But "the source is clear".

It's off the mark.

What the hell is the book club she works with, "Red Maple Literature"?

Novel fans in the Magic City, the Imperial City, and many other provinces who follow the "New God Ascension" event have never heard of the company Hongfeng Literature.

How did her "Anohana" achieve sales of over one million volumes per volume?

Was it due to the contribution of local novel fans in the Southern Province?

Or was it due to the publicity of fans from other provinces?

Many people are curious.

On this day.

When the official website of the "New God Ascension" novel event updated the historical achievements of "Yuan Qing" as a novelist.

That night, the name "Yuan Qing" caused a lot of discussion among the Longguo novel fan group.

A new novelist in the non-Imperial City Magic City area can actually write a novel with sales of over one million volumes per volume.

This is really, I don't know how many years I haven't heard of such an example.

And this person has only been in the industry for a year and is still a new high school student novelist?

Interesting.

I don't know what the result will be if this wild genius new novelist competes with the top genius new novelists trained by big companies in the Magic City and the Imperial City.
