Chapter 54 Han Yun and the Conversation
Chapter 54 Han Yun and Conversation
May
The weather was hot, and even though everyone was wearing thin clothes, they were still sweating profusely.
Under such a temperature, in the office building of Red Maple Literature, all the employees in the editorial department were in high spirits, and there was no sign of lethargy at all.
After all, it is very rare for a journal like "Red Maple" to have three serialization slots in such a short period of time. Everyone is eagerly waiting for the arrival of next Monday.
"Let me tell you, Lao Zhou, the "Red Dragon" teacher you are responsible for contacting, I heard that there is also a new work to be submitted to the serialization meeting next Monday, right?"
"Oh, yes, although his performance in historical novels cannot be said to be very outstanding, there are three serialization opportunities this time, just in case you get lucky, right?"
"Although there are more opportunities than usual this time, the competition is also much greater than usual!"
"After all, as long as the work can be serialized in "Red Maple", it means fame and wealth. Any novel that can be serialized in "Red Maple", any novel, peripherals, single book, etc., can earn hundreds of dollars in additional royalties.
The average salary in Southern Province is less than 4,000. This income is also very tempting for veteran writers. What’s more, what if the work is adapted into animation, movies, or TV series? It’s hard to say the upper limit of income.
Already."
"Indeed, who would struggle with money and just work hard for half a year to serialize and earn a stable income of more than one million? If I have the ability, I will have to accept the competition."
"However, in fact, regardless of whether it is "Nandou, Torii, Duoyu, Red Dragon, or Dongmeng, they are not actually the most competitive novel authors in this serialization conference."
Whether Xia Yan or Song Lingyun submitted their novels to the "New God Ascension" event to participate in the competition, the copyrights of the participating novels also belong to both of them, so Red Maple Literature has no chance to get involved.
In fact, participating in this kind of activity has no substantive benefit to Red Maple Literature.
After all, these two are the only potential new writers in the book club. She definitely hopes that both of their new works will be successful in this serialization conference, so that the two of them will have a greater chance of obtaining this seed spot.
After all, in serial meetings, ordinary editors only have the right to speak and the decision-making power has always been in Han Yun's hands.
"So, how is the new work of the two of them?" Han Yun asked.
She put down the teacup in her hand and suddenly asked.
As long as the book club recommends new novel authors to participate in the seed quota competition, who will actually get the seed quota.
"I've seen it. But you, the editor-in-chief..." A trace of confusion flashed across Tang Yin's expression.
After all, it is a selection event for potential newcomers in the novel world. The organizer has made it clear that the works are only for competition, and the copyright is 100% in the hands of the creators. Otherwise, the flavor of this event will change. As for Red Maple Literature, from the beginning to the end
In the end, the participating novels were not serialized in the book club’s periodicals, and any profits from the participating novels had nothing to do with the book club.
"Oh?" Han Yun became more energetic.
Because of this, Han Yun paid close attention to both Xia Yan and Song Lingyun.
"Based on the novel manuscripts she submitted, I think her new novel "Sea of Stars" should significantly surpass the results of her previous novel "Yesterday's Starlight"."
Promote it vigorously in the southern province to help Hongfeng Literature establish a good image in the industry.
In the editorial office, a group of colleagues were chatting privately.
Whether Xia Yan or Song Lingyun, as long as they obtain the seed quota, Hongfeng Literature can take advantage of the popularity of this event in the Dragon Kingdom.
Generally speaking, Han Yun will not pay attention to these novels to be reviewed before the serialization meeting begins.
"But after all, a light novel writer who has created such achievement novels, his new work should not be underestimated! After all, this person is so young, he may be a flash in the pan in the light novel world, but more likely it is youth.
The journey may just be a starting point, his beginning."
Tang Yin was silent for a few seconds after hearing this. She could probably sense Han Yun's inner thoughts. She was originally worried about how Xia Yan's slow-burning novel, which claimed to be a "comprehensive transcendence" of youth journey, could pass the serialization meeting. Now that Han Yun took the initiative to ask
, that might also be a small opportunity.
"That Yuanqing! The total sales volume of the first and second volumes of Journey of Youth has exceeded 800,000 copies. The average sales volume of this work has exceeded 400,000 copies, and this figure is still rising. This history
The results are really advantageous. Except for Yuan Qing, the historical results of their novels among other competitors are basically between 200,000 and 300,000 volumes, which is already the highest."
Although Han Yun is forty years old, she pays attention to her diet and health. She is in a very energetic state and has a touch of elegance in her behavior.
However, there is no obvious benefit, but in other aspects, it has benefited Red Maple Literature greatly.
Tang Yin began to criticize Song Lingjun's works.
"At least, compared with the new novelists who have emerged in the past two years under the other four large book publishers in Southern Province, the results achieved by the two of them are not only not bad, but also ahead, especially Yuanqing. Although none of his works are in "
It is serialized in periodicals like "Red Maple". However, his works are very popular and he is the only one among newcomer novelists in the province who has an absolute record of single volumes."
It is certain that the author of this novel will be tied to the reputation of Red Maple Literature to a certain extent.
"Have you seen the new work of these two people?"
In the editorial office, Tang Yin and editor-in-chief Han Yun were reporting on their work.
"Aren't you still thinking about the "New God Ascension" event in the second half of the year? I originally thought that these two talented newcomers might have to have another outstanding novel as their historical achievement resume in order to be selected for the Upper South Province.
Seed qualification. But in fact, you also understand that whether it is Journey of Youth or Starlight Yesterday, the results are very impressive." Han Yun said with a smile.
The novels submitted by newcomers can also become popular, and they have beaten newcomer writers from major book publishers in the past two years and won the seed quota. The image of Red Maple Literature that values newcomers has emerged.
"Teacher Ning Yun's new work is excellent."
"Who is that?"
The reason is the same as if a teacher in a university suddenly wins an award in some well-known international award selection activities, the school where he works will also benefit.
"Well, that means that your two talented newcomers, Yuan Qing and Ning Yun, are all interested in participating in this serialization meeting, right?"
The editor-in-chief Han Yun took the initiative to ask about these contents, so he had to give her a good impression first. When the serialization meeting is held next Monday, perhaps relying on this good impression, the novel Xinghai won the serialization meeting.
"Hey, don't panic, haven't you heard of the saying that big is not necessarily better when you are young? The world of light novels is even more cruel. It doesn't need to span so many years. Sometimes just one year is enough for life to have its ups and downs. A novel
The works we created in the first half of the year were still popular masterpieces, but in the second half of the year, there are many examples of new works that were not approved for serialization meetings because of insufficient quality."
The answer is not for profit, but for fame.
Then why is Red Maple Literature so keen on doing this kind of thing? I hope Xia Yan and Song Lingjun can get the seed spots.
After blowing on the sea of stars, Tang Yin's eyes rolled a few times.
Suppressing her inner guilt, she began to continue speaking with a more confident expression.
"As for Teacher Yuanqing's new work "Unheard Flower Names", it is even better."
The next chapter will be a little slower. Why is this happening these days? Because at night, I am too absorbed in watching the TV series "Kung Fu" and I can't get out of the world of Brother Qiang. Therefore, the coding time is postponed a bit.
Chapter completed!
