Chapter 8: To sign or not to sign

Qidian Editorial Department.

Wuyue is an editor in the editorial department.

His tasks are to review, sign contracts, and promote novels written by online authors.

There are 30 new books to be reviewed today.

When a novel reaches 20,000 words, the novel will be displayed in the backstage of Qidian.com's editorial department.

As an editor, then his task is to review these new books.

If you find that the new book has potential during the review, you can submit the signed work to the editor-in-chief.

It took Wuyue a morning to review 29 novels, leaving only the last one.

Alas, there are too few potential works.

With nearly 30 novels, Wu Yue only attracted three potential works, that is, works that can be signed.

In other words, only one person can sign a contract among the ten people, and no novel written by the other nine people cannot sign a contract.

Although being unable to sign a contract does not mean that the book has no value, according to the rules of online novels, he can basically conclude that there is no need to continue writing this book.

Let's take a look at the last novel.

When I clicked on the last work in the backstage, Wu Yue just took a look and felt a little Spartan in an instant.

How do bad guys practice it?

My god, the authors are so imaginative about writing novels nowadays. They dare to take any name for novels.

However, Wu Yue, who has been reviewing new books, also knows that although such a book title is strange, I have never seen it. After all, there is no threshold for online writing. You can write whatever novel you want, and you can choose whatever book title you want. However, in most cases, most of the weird book titles like this cannot be signed.

However, Wu Yue did not abandon the book directly.

Although the title of the book is somewhat non-mainstream, I haven't read the main text yet.

Keeping in mind the profession and cultivation of editors, Wu Yue will not define a certain work based on his first image.

It's better to read the main text.

Chapter 1: Setting ambition

Chapter 1 talks about a weak and weak student named Xie Wendong who was bullied by a group of gangsters of students. However, while bullying, Xie Wendong did not gain any extraordinary abilities, and then killed everyone. Instead, he picked up a knife and scratched his hand. In this way of self-harm, he was determined not to be cowardly...

There are only 7 chapters of how the bad guys have mastered it, and it has just reached 20,000 words.

Wu Yue will soon finish reading these 7 chapters.

How to say it?

After reading it, Wu Yue didn't know why, but he felt a little impulsive in his heart.

He felt that this work was written very well and very ignorant. Even though he had read countless works for the years, when he saw how this bad guy was practicing, he was still very excited about this work. Especially when he reviewed this work just now, he became a pure reader.

This is a rare situation.

Because of work, he would look at almost any work from the perspective of an editor when he showed it.

For example, what is the writing style, what is the main line...and so on.

However, how did this bad guy be practiced? In just over ten minutes, he conquered the Five Mountains.

Signing the contract.

The first thought in my mind was signing a contract.

How can a novel like this that can attract editors and not sign a contract?

However, just as Wu Yue was about to submit a bad guy signing contract to the editor-in-chief, Wu Yue felt a little hesitant.

Isn't the writing style of this novel too novice?

Such a novice novel, will the editor-in-chief agree to sign the contract after signing the contract?

Wuyue was a little confused.

After thinking about it, Wuyue asked his colleague "Taishan".

"Tarzan, I feel like I'm not sure about this book, come and take a look."

As he said that, Wu Yue sent the bad guys to Taishan.

After a while, Taishan replied, "I don't know how to evaluate Wuyue. I can't say that I'm not well written. The story looks quite passionate, but the writing is too novice."

"Ha, Taishan, you can't make up your mind."

"I want to tell you that this bookmark is OK, or you can not sign it. However, this novel has been in Longkong recently, but it has attracted the attention of many authors."

"Long Kong also observed this book. What are their evaluations? It's okay."

"On the contrary, everyone in Long Kong was full of scolding."

Taishan shrugged, "Longkong, you know that most of them are authors, and literati are inferior to each other. The relatively novice writing style has never been recognized by them. It doesn't matter whether you refer to their opinions or not. However, you also know that recently, Fantasy Moon and Lianheng have fierce competition with us Qidian. Longkong is a neutral author discussion platform. Their comments can easily cause other new authors to move forward. If we Qidian signed this work, we might scold us Qidian editors on the forum for lack of vision."

"Of course, we don't value the opinions of Longkong Forum. However, even if you agree, you may not be able to pass the editor-in-chief. We have only been in the company for half a year, but we are just new editors. The company is still assessing us, so it's better to be more secure."

After Taishan finished his evaluation, he said, "Do not sign or not, you can think about it yourself."

Taishan’s evaluation is undoubtedly fair.

If it is an ordinary novel, it doesn’t matter whether it is signed or not.

But now, this work has been criticized by Long Kong, and there is also a lot of controversy in terms of writing style.

It is really risky to sign this work, and it is also not good for Wu Yue's work.

However, he was not willing to give up on this work.

Wuyue knows the importance of signing a contract.

Once this novel is given up by myself, or if it is not signed, then this book may disappear.

Because no newcomer can continue to update as before after signing a contract is rejected.

Wu Yue had a headache, so he had to read the bad guy again.

The feeling of excitement, passion... came again.

A shot.

Not to mention anything else, just for this passionate work, this book can be signed.

If you give up like this, you may be sorry for your conscience and violate your professional ethics.

After thinking about it, Wuyue created a new document, which was the document of the quasi-signed work that day.

There are 4 works submitted for signing on that day, and Wuyue wrote signing evaluations on these four works.

The Way of Heaven: Excellent writing style.

Martial Arts Competition: The plot is protruding, which is very attractive.

The Tang Dynasty’s Hegemony: The author has a strong historical foundation, and the novel is cleverly linked to history. After reading it, you can feel the strong atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty.

How do bad guys practice: Although the writing style is novice, it is very smooth and you can understand it at first glance. In addition, the plot is touched into reality, it is very passionate and has a sense of substitution.

After writing the evaluation of four works, Wu Yue was a little worried that the editor would still lose the bad guy.

They are only the editor-in-chief and have limited power, so they can only advise the editor-in-chief whether to sign which work.

As for whether to sign the specific sign or not, the editor will make the decision.

After thinking about it, Wu Yue added another sentence after the bad guy's evaluation, which is highly recommended.

Adding this sentence means that the editor agrees very much.

Generally speaking, if the editor-in-chief sees this strong recommendation at this time, even if he feels that the work cannot be signed, he will eventually take into account the editor's opinions and finally sign the contract for him. After all, although the editor-in-chief has limited power, he is on the front line of dealing with novels, and their evaluation is also very referenceable.
