Chapter 89 Treating money as dung
When You Rong finished reading "The Death of a Little Civil Servant", he thought to wait for the author to announce that he must dig the other party over. The other party's writing skills are really strong.
As a result, he didn't expect that this person was Chu Kuang who was snatched from his nose by the tribe!
As for this result, You Rongqi's eyes widened, and he felt like he was being stolen.
But after all, he is the editor-in-chief of "Qu Du", so he quickly controlled his emotions: "I must grab someone back."
You Rong was secretly ruthless inside.
Chu Kuang has been recognized in the short story field. The other party is no longer a newcomer who has just seen the path, but a rising star in the entire short story field, a genius writer who has begun to show his strength!
And such a talented writer is not just You Rong who wants to get it.
Major publishers in Qinzhou are also ready to move.
Because the competition in this industry has always been so fierce and cruel, a genius writer like Chu Kuang can easily arouse the interest of all parties.
but……
These publishers should not have Chu Kuang’s contact information at present.
The tribe is able to find Chu Kuang purely because it is a advantage on the platform. You should know that the tribe account itself is related to the mobile phone number. Tribal literature just needs to follow the phone number left by Chu Kuang.
You Rong believed that if tribal literature is not stupid, it would not reveal Chu Kuang’s information.
On the Yinlan Bookstore, Chu Kuang’s information will also be kept confidential.
Unfortunately, paper cannot contain the fire.
The industries are highly interpenetrating and have many channels for inquiry. Some of the larger publishers in the industry will sooner or later find Chu Kuang.
So, I can only hold on to the idea of how long it can be.
However, judging from the current situation, it is probably only tribal literature that can compete with Yinlan Bookstore for Chu Kuang.
This made You Rong feel a little comforted.
And at this time.
Also in Silver Blue Book Library.
Chu Kuang is also discussing in the Youth Fantasy Department.
The Youth Fantasy Novel Department does not do short stories, it is the job of "Fun Reading" in the magazine department next door.
But Chu Kuang is one of the best-selling authors of the Youth Fantasy Department of Yinlan Bookstore, and the editors in the department will naturally pay attention to his movements.
So Chu Kuang had just won the first prize in short stories in tribal literature, which immediately triggered large-scale discussions within the department.
"I didn't expect Chu Kuang to write short stories so well!"
"It's good at short stories and youth fantasy novels at the same time. Is this creative talent so good, right?"
"No wonder the short story field is always competing with us. With Chu Kuang's short story creation level, it is indeed worth it."
"I heard that even our editor-in-chief praised Chu Kuang's short stories."
“…”
Halfway through the discussion, an editor suddenly worried, "Chu Kuang will focus on developing in the short story field in the future and not write about fantasy subjects?"
This worry is not redundant.
Chu Kuang is one of the best-selling authors of the Youth Fantasy Department, which is very precious to the entire fantasy department.
"Not to it."
An editor was not sure about shaking his head and said, "How many short stories are there in just a few short stories? How can one write short stories make money by writing youth fantasy novels?"
"make money?"
Yang Feng, the editor in charge of Chu Kuang, suddenly raised his head and said angrily: "Do you think Chu Kuang cares about money?"
“…”
After Yang Feng said this, the entire fantasy department was silent. Obviously, everyone agreed with Yang Feng's words.
Yes.
Chu Kuang doesn't like money.
He has no interest in money.
This is a fact that the entire fantasy department unanimously admits. If Chu Kuang really likes money, he would not have completed "The King of Nets" easily.
Because even fools know that for best-selling novels, the longer they write, the more royalties they pay!
Once this type of novel is completed, the royalties will drop sharply within a few months!
But two weeks ago.
The May manuscript of "The Net King" sent by Chu Kuang was completely finished.
Yes.
Tomorrow is May 1st, "Net King" will be officially released and the final chapter will be completed. The relevant departments have even typed out the slogans-
Chu Kuang really didn't write a single word!
In the entire "Net King", he almost strictly followed the initial outline he provided, and completed this very best-selling novel with a few words of about one million!
I was so decisive that even the editors in the department felt distressed and wanted to continue writing for Chu Kuang!
You know, with the current sales momentum of this novel, every word you write is a lot of money!
To put it ugly.
If Chu Kuang is willing to continue writing "The King of Nets", even if he is crazy about the work, which will cause the subsequent quality of the work to decline significantly, many readers will definitely buy it, because many readers have already formed inertial reading.
Unless he feeds shit in the book, readers will not abandon the book easily. At most, they will curse and greet the author, and then hesitate to continue paying.
This is the editors’ experience of many years of work.
I believe Chu Kuang himself must understand this.
But Chu Kuang was so willful. Even though he knew that his work could still make money, he still finished the book without hesitation.
How could such a person like money?
a long time.
An editor in the department sighed: "This is Chu Kuang's literary character. He does not create for the purpose of making money. Such writers are actually very respectable."
"Yes."
"In the era of commercialization of literature, the original intention of authors to create is certainly derived from dreams, but if their novels are not profitable, how many people are willing to generate electricity for love?"
"I haven't met such a novelist in many years."
"Most writers would not be willing to finish a very profitable novel. Even if their outline is used up, they will definitely try their best to expand their stories. In this way, there are too few authors like Chu Kuang who decisively complete bestsellers."
“…”
Yang Feng sighed.
Why doesn't he admire Chu Kuang?
When most writers go with the flow and choose to create a kingly theme like adventure in another world, Chu Kuang chose an unpopular theme like sports competition without hesitation. This pioneering spirit alone has already made Yang Feng very impressed.
I admire it very much.
At the same time, Yang Feng was also very troubled.
Because Chu Kuang finished "The Net King", it was a considerable loss for Yinlan Book Library.
Otherwise, the editor-in-chief would not have given any special instructions before, and asked Chu Kuang to try his best to expand the outline and write the story longer...
However, Chu Kuang refused to listen to advice.
Yang Feng couldn't help but recall what happened when he first dealt with Chu Kuang. At that time, he thought that the other party was just a newcomer and a newborn calf was not afraid of a tiger.
One day!
The other party will feel the fear of being dominated by the dark room and see how terrifying the editor’s urging method is.
But now.
Chu Kuang did not see his horror. He was an author who never dragged his manuscript to open the skylight. Instead, he saw Chu Kuang's horror first.
People really regard money as dirt.
Yang Feng could only shake his head helplessly, smiled bitterly and commented: "I'm really too willful!"
The next day.
May 1st.
Chapter completed!
