A perfect life starting from a light novel writer

When the official website of "New God Ascends" released this data,

That day, the entire official website forum immediately became commotion.

The top six are all there regardless of the quality of the novels or the author's previous popularity and reputation. This ranking is acceptable to everyone.

But the first chapter of To the Moon is really not very well written.

"I can accept the results of the top six picks. What the hell is this seventh place? Why go to the moon and be seventh?"

"With the fifty-one entries, at least forty first-chapter novels are more exciting than To the Moon, right? Why does To the Moon have such a number of votes?"

"Bake votes?"

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm a fan of Teacher Yuanqing. I also thought the first chapter of To the Moon was a bit bland, but I'm willing to vote for her. What do you think?"

"That's right, Teacher Yuanqing has many fans and they all have confidence in her. So what if her works are slow to gain popularity? We are willing to wait. Why are you arguing here?"

"No, we have to be realistic when reading novels. If the novel is well-written, you can vote for it, but if the novel is average, don't be blind! It's a bit too blatant for you to rank "To the Moon" at seventh place. Don't be afraid at all. ?”

"We are all novel readers who have bought genuine periodicals, and we are not buying tickets through hacker networks. What should we be afraid of?"

"Come on, you are free to disparage the work "To the Moon". Anyway, we book fans in Southern Province and those who followed "Unheard Flower Names" all know that Teacher Yuanqing's novels and early foreshadowings, Regardless of the setting, it’s normal to think it doesn’t look good, but as long as the plot behind it is well written, it’ll be fine.”

"I, the fans of "Unheard Flower Name" in Shanghai, also support the sisters from Nan Province and support Teacher Yuanqing."

"I am a fan of "Unknown Flowers" from Mo Province, but what's wrong with supporting "To the Moon"? I believe this novel will have interesting developments later on."

"I'm from Yunzhou, and I voted for "To the Moon" with my real name. Because of the touch that "Unheard Flower Names" brought me, I will trust Teacher Yuanqing this time."

"I am a book lover from Northern Province, and I will buy the journal "New God Ascends" because it serializes the new work of Teacher "Yuanqing". Who do you think I should vote for?"

At the beginning, only some people questioned why the quality of the first chapter of the novel "To the Moon" was worthy of being ranked seventh in the first issue of the "New Gods" journal.

This makes many fans of Xia Yan unbearable. In the past few days, I have seen many people on this forum complaining that the animation of "Unheard Flower Name" is not good-looking. The original novel has sold millions of volumes, all of which are in the millions. Foolish readers are buying it, and now these people are questioning the votes of themselves and others. Many people couldn't bear it anymore and spoke directly.

No one is convinced by the debates on the Internet, but these debates have also made many fans of the Longguo Passeren novel who don’t understand the work "Unheard Flower Name" murmur in their hearts.

Is Yuan Qing’s novel “Unheard Flower Names” really so good? It's been a few months since the show was finished, and yet so many fans are supporting Yuan Qing's new work "To the Moon" for the sake of "Unheard Flower Name".

Although it is not just because of this level of curiosity that they spend real money to buy a copy of Unknown Flowers in a bookstore.

But many people are actually planning to pay attention to Modu TV7 in the next period of time to take a closer look at the animated adaptation of this work to see if it is interesting.

Watching TV animation is free.

Nan Province, Nancheng.

Of course, Xia Yan is also paying attention to the work "To the Moon".

"Seventh!" The excitement on Tang Yin's face has lasted all day.

"I really didn't expect that it would be number 7. Your "Unknown Flower Name" fans are so sticky."

"I didn't expect it either." Xia Yan was actually quite surprised.

He was fully prepared for the first issue of "To the Moon" to suffer disastrous results.

But he didn't expect that fans of "Unknown Flowers" would forcibly lift his hand.

"At the beginning, it was unheard of that Hua Ming's novels were slow to gain popularity, but later on they developed like this. Readers had already expected your works to be slow to gain popularity, and now it's like this when you go to the moon. I can only say that it's all a coincidence." Tang Yin laughed happily.

Although the success of this work has nothing to do with her as the editor of Hongfeng Literature.

However, I am just happy.

As she spoke, Tang Yin looked at Song Lingjun, who was carefully helping Xia Yan draw illustrations and posters.

"It's winter vacation. If you work, you have plenty of time. Let's take a rest."

"There is no time to rest. My new novel is only in the 29th position. After I finish helping Xia Yan's pictures, I have to use my time to refine the plot outline of the novel." A trace of unwillingness flashed across Song Lingjun's cold face.

"But you have to think about it, your work is ranked 8th in the ranking, which means that the majority of readers have a good impression of the first chapter of your new novel. You are different from Xia Yan. He has never heard of the flower name in southern Canada and other provinces in the early stage. With the support of tens of thousands of fans, if the novel is serialized for a longer time and the plot unfolds, the popularity will rise." Tang Yin said quickly.

Song Lingjun raised his head, glanced at Xia Yan and Tang Yin, shook his head, and continued to stare at the drawing paper in his hand.

On a bright starry night, two children, a boy and a girl, were sitting on the trunk of a dead tree on the ground, looking at the sky.

The huge full moon brings peace of mind.

Xia Yan's requirement for her to draw this illustration was that, to a certain extent, the stars and moon in the sky could barely be connected in her imagination to form the shape of a rabbit.

This requires imagination, though.

Can't help her.

"So beautiful. Song Lingjun"

Just as Song Lingjun was carefully coloring with the brush in her hand, Xia Yan's voice sounded beside her, and her fingers trembled slightly.

"Are you talking about the star map I drew?"

"Of course." Xia Yan said.

"Look. There are two ears."

"There are two feet. People like me who lack imagination can easily find rabbits in this star map."

"The star map you drew is better than I thought."

Xia Yan pointed at Song Lingjun's painting and said with a smile.

Song Lingjun tilted her head slightly and looked at Xia Yan.

"Is there any deep meaning in asking me to help you draw this illustration? What is the connection between the rabbit in the starry sky and the paper rabbit in the first chapter of your "To the Moon"?"

"You will know when this novel is serialized later." Xia Yan never likes spoilers.

"Just like I ask you now, will you tell me the secret of the heroine's life in your new novel?"

"Of course not." Song Lingjun understood after hearing this.

"I want to see what role my illustration will play in your novel."

It's another Wednesday.

The second episode of the animation "Anohana" was successfully broadcast on TV.

Although many animation fans who have not read the original novel complained that this work was slow to warm up, the characterization of the heroine Lin Yi in this work is indeed brilliant, and many people can watch it just for this heroine.

The ratings of the animation have increased compared to the first episode, and the average ratings of the whole series closed at 1.13%, ranking 24th among the new animations in the spring market.

The new God's Ascension novel journal is published every ten days.

Comparatively speaking, this serialization speed is slow, but it also gives the serialized novels sufficient time to ferment their popularity.

In the early stage of serialization, the ranking of the voting order on the novel may have a greater relationship with the number of fans of the author himself.

But after a long time of serialization, readers are not stupid. For friendly voting, they just support the first two or three issues. When it comes to the end, they will definitely vote for whichever work is better. Otherwise, there is no need to carry out this activity. Just show the popularity and fame data of the fifty-one authors in Dragon Country, and give the prize to the one with the highest popularity.

January 24th. Wednesday.

The second issue of the New God Ascension Journal was successfully released throughout Dragon Country.

The story of going to the moon connects with the end of the first chapter.

Neil and Eva bid farewell to the memory created by the old man's memory before he fell into a coma.

Continue to explore John's deeper memory world through the machine.

Still use a lot of words to describe Neil and Eva's exploration of the motivation of why he had the idea of ​​"going to the moon" in the old man's memory world.

But here

The two saw the memory of the old man a year ago. He held the "Duck-billed Puss" doll in his hand, looking at the lighthouse in front of his wife's grave, and was confused and lonely in front of the grave of his dead wife "Xiaoxi".

[I can also look at her every day like you]

[She will never be alone again. ]

In the original game, thanks to the rhythm of the text game and the poor quality of the pixel screen, many details do not seem too profound.

But since Xia Yan adapted the novel from the game, the atmosphere must be rendered.

The old man's two sentences are talking to his dead wife Xiaoxi.

The "she" in his words refers to the lighthouse.

Because during this period of time, although his wife Xiaoxi died, the house next to the lighthouse was built.

It would be confusing to see this when playing the game, but the novel adaptation, compared with the original game plot, has a proper sense of suspense and foreshadowing, which will enhance the reading sense.

At least many readers will have a little empathy for John's miserable experience when they see this text.

Then the memory goes back to John's past time period.

Through a chat between John and his friends, and through the perspectives of Neil and Eva in the story, readers know

that his wife Xiaoxi died of illness.

But before his wife died, he faced a choice.

He only had enough money to choose between building a house and treating Xiaoxi.

He chose to treat his wife Xiaoxi, betting on the tiny cure rate. But Xiaoxi would rather die than let John use the money to treat her.

The description of the article here will seem very strange to the readers.

Because the house is not a necessity for Xiaoxi and John, why would Xiaoxi prefer to die rather than let John give up building the house?

Is the house more important than life?

And the description of the text also makes the audience feel the weirdness of John's wife Xiaoxi.

She seems to have something to say to John, but she always keeps silent.

Moreover, she always folds paper rabbits in front of John, as if she hopes John can notice something from the paper rabbits.

Finally

The story of the second chapter has a turning point.

The memory goes back a while again, and John is in a conversation with a friend. At this time, John in his middle-aged and elderly years talked about this matter with his friend.

[Paper rabbit? ]

[Yes, a lot of them. ]

[I asked Xiaoxi why she folded paper rabbits, but she never answered. And her eyes would become deep, looking at me, as if she hoped to get some information from me. ]

[And the strange thing is. In contrast, I always feel like I owe her something. 】

The plot of the second chapter is basically based on the conversation between John and his friends.

But as they continue reading, readers finally know why Xiaoxi would rather die than let John spend money to treat her illness.

That was John, who was still in middle-aged and old age, and he once told his wife Xiaoxi.

[The lighthouse on the cliff once witnessed our wedding, but now, people no longer need this abandoned lighthouse. The ships at sea are replaced by new technology when they return to the port. This old lighthouse is going to be demolished. Its existence has no meaning! 】

But Xiaoxi was very sad because of his words.

In order to make Xiaoxi happy, John promised his wife at that time.

A house will be built in front of the lighthouse to protect the lighthouse.

[In this way, she will never be lonely in this lighthouse. I can look at her every day]

Xiaoxi said with a happy look on his face at that time.

Chapter 2, end.

Readers with delicate feelings who bought the New God Ranking Journal will be able to tell that the key character creation target in this chapter is Xiaoxi.

She always keeps her thoughts to herself and doesn't reveal anything.

However, from the few words in the text, everyone can still feel a faint sense of sadness.

Whether it was Xiaoxi's crazy origami rabbit, or whether she would rather die than John give up building the house to guard the lighthouse, and...she was always silent and would not tell John everything clearly.

What does the lighthouse mean to the creek?

Why should she be buried next to the lighthouse even after she died?

What does the paper rabbit mean?

Why does Xiaoxi carry that platypus doll with him wherever he goes?

From the perspective of the audience, this story is a blur and somewhat difficult to understand.

But from the details, you can still feel a touch of sadness and touching atmosphere lingering.

However, the pace of the story is still slow

It's not boring to say that it's not interesting. I can only say that it's the same as the original novel serialization of Weiwen Huaming, which is all setting up and foreshadowing.

The second issue of the journal has arrived

As a result, the voting ranking of Going to the Moon dropped from seventh to eighth in the first issue.

After all, relying solely on the support of fans will not last long. Fans' mindless support only lasts for three minutes, and rarely lasts for several months. If you want to maintain a good ranking for a long time, you still have to look at the quality of the current novel. .

On the contrary, there is no change in the works from first to sixth, but their respective total votes have increased to a certain extent.

After all, good works will definitely continue to attract votes from readers. The higher you go, the higher the number of votes for works that are ranked higher. On the contrary, the number of votes for works that continue to be ranked lower will be extremely low.

However, for fans of Yuanqing's books, they don't care about this. People who have experienced the rise from the bottom of the journal to the top of the magazine without hearing the name, now see the eighth pick of "To the Moon", All I can say is that I'm not panicking at all.

Instead, they started discussing various foreshadowings of this novel on the forum.
