Chapter 42: Amazing pay rate


   Yinlan Book Library officially announced the five winners of this year's Supernova Awards at the end of the month. Lin Yuan also got notice from Yang Feng and saw "Net King" at the last of the winners.
   "The novel will be published tomorrow."
   Yang Feng gave Lin Yuan a shot: "But you don't need to pay too much attention to the sales of novels. After all, sports competition is a niche subject. Sales are not the only way to prove your work. Congratulations on your formal becoming a novelist."
   Lin Yuan said: "Thank you."
Yang Feng smiled: "Then I will hang up first, and the company has a publishing conference to be held. When the novel is officially published tomorrow, we will send you a few copies for free. You can also go to major bookstores. Walk around, tomorrow Qinzhou will officially put on shelves in major bookstores."
"Okay, bye."
After finishing the call, Yang Feng put away his mobile phone and entered the meeting room. At the moment, the editors in the meeting room are whispering to discuss the results of this supernova: "I don’t know how the sales of this year’s supernova will be. "The Devil of the World", the protagonist's identity after crossing the alien world is a devil who everyone shouts. This creative direction is quite unique, at least it is more interesting."
   "I am more optimistic about the second."
"The second author, Dalong, is an old bird. This guy has long been a novelist, but he is just wearing a vest to get the newcomer quota. But the novel he wrote this time is really interesting. The protagonist is actually summoned by the princess. World."
   "……"
   Everyone discussed enthusiastically.
Some people are optimistic about the first, some are optimistic about the second, and others think that the third and the fourth are also good. Only the "Net King" has the least discussion, because the editors of the entire Yinlan Bookstore know that the fifth is the chief editor in order to enrich the market themes. And forcibly added.
   Everyone can understand this.
The homogeneity of themes in the novel market is indeed serious, which is not conducive to the overall development of the novel circle. Therefore, since this year, major publishing companies including Yinlan Bookstore have made attempts to promote new themes, so as to guide the market in disguise. The purpose of diversified creative directions.
   After the announcement of the supernova award results.
  'S official website has an introduction to the award-winning works and a survey of reader expectations. Many specially invited old readers have filled out the questionnaire. The result of the questionnaire is that the top three supernova award-winning readers have the highest expectations!
   This is not surprising.
   because the top three are all aliens.
The fifth place "Net King" has the lowest expectation value. Readers seem to be innately disinterested in tennis. Even though the official website introduction has always emphasized that this is a sports novel that can be read without knowing tennis, it still has not changed. The results of this survey.
   Someone even protested on the official website!
   This is a reserved project after the announcement of the supernova results every year. There are always some pretentious but miserable authors who feel that the award judgment of the supernova is unfair, especially this year's "Net King" selection has stimulated the nerves of many unsuccessful.
   "Why?"
"Qinzhou has never had a precedent for a big explosion of sports and sports themes, let alone a novel about tennis. In order to make the subject matter not single, Yinlan Library forced such a work to rank fifth, which is really too letting. People are disappointed."
  The top four are all popular topics.
   The fifth naturally became the target.
   However, Yinlan Library will ignore these protests. From the editorial staff's point of view, even if the subject matter of "Net King" is niche, the quality of the novel itself is definitely not as unbearable as judged by outsiders.
   "It's a pity He Mingxuan."
   An editor suddenly shook his head.
He Mingxuan is a novelist who has already made his debut. This time he put on a vest to submit a manuscript to a supernova. His work was well received. After reading his work, many editors suggested that He Mingxuan's work should be the first of the supernova essays. Five.
   But unfortunately he met "Net King".
The editor-in-chief’s reasons persuaded everyone:
First, the market needs diversified guidance. Second, He Mingxuan is an old man after all. Although there are old people wearing vests every year, I think this is not a very good phenomenon. We should still give more. Newcomer opportunity."
   He Mingxuan was therefore unsuccessful.
The editor who has a good relationship with He Mingxuan also specially comforted He Mingxuan for this: "If it were not for enriching the market themes, you should be ranked fifth this time, so this time the election is not because of your strength, but your luck. A little bit."
  ……
Although He Mingxuan was ranked sixth in the so-called supernova, he did not participate in some of the unsuccessful protests against "Net King" because when he first debuted, some people had similar protests against his works, so he was clearly rejected. What kind of mood a protester is, he will never become the kind of person he once hated the most.
   The editor is right.
   He also felt that his luck was a little bit worse this time. After all, he encountered a special situation, not to mention that he is not a newcomer, and the opportunity to the newcomer in a vest is not glorious. Finally, it is understandable to give in to the newcomer.
   "Maybe I am not suitable for writing books."
He Mingxuan is a bit self-doubt. He debuted as a novelist five years ago, and even won the quarterly champion in novel sales. But after that book was over, he wrote several books in a row and hit the street, so much so that few publishing houses are willing now. Publish his work.
   This makes He Mingxuan very painful.
   If it weren't for this reason, he wouldn't be cheeky to participate in the newcomer awards like Supernova. For every novelist, seizing opportunities with newcomers is a testament to their failure.
   He Mingxuan can't sleep this night.
   The next morning, He Mingxuan walked into the nearest bookstore unconsciously, and subconsciously looked at the first row of bookshelves in the bookstore.
   Once this bookshelf was full of his works.
   But today, the top five supernova works are displayed on it.
   He is the sixth place without medals.
   There are a lot of people reading books in the bookstore, most of them are young readers, and everyone rushes to this shelf
   Readers are still looking forward to the award-winning works of Supernova as in previous years.
   But wanting them to pay for books is not easy.
   Few people will buy a book directly~EbookFREE.me~ Most of them pick up the book and flip through it, find a quiet corner, and read tens of thousands of words first.
  If you are sure that it is a story you like, readers will honestly pay for it.
   looked at this scene.
  He Mingxuan remembered that he had done something silly in retrospect.
   At that time, his novel had just been published, and he sat alone in the corner of the bookstore for a whole day without doing anything else, just observing the readers who bought the book.
   Every time someone buys his He Mingxuan's book, he secretly gets excited and ecstatic.
Nowadays.
   Enter the bookstore.
   He Mingxuan also subconsciously observed it.
   There is no accident. The first thing everyone picked up was the heavy recommendation of the bookstore, that is, the work that won the top three supernova.
   But what surprised He Mingxuan is that everyone's paying rate is not high today. Many people picked up the book and read it for a while and put it back. It seems that this year's supernova performance is slightly worse than the previous one.
   There is a book whose payment rate is beyond He Mingxuan's expectations.
   This book is exactly the competitive novel "Net King" that made He Mingxuan the sixth place.
   In fact, there are very few readers who have picked up "Net King" and read it. Compared with the top four, the number of people interested in this novel is almost pitiful.
   And in stark contrast to this pathetic--
   The readers who picked up the "Net King" to watch, basically bought the book in the end!
   For this reason, He Mingxuan also deliberately counted them.
   Since entering the bookstore, there are only 18 readers who are willing to pick up "Net King" and read it.
   But what surprised him was:
   There are 15 people who are willing to buy it after watching "Net King"!
