Chapter 264 Fantasy Literature

The author Rich List is an important melody of the annual meeting and is also the thing that the reporters on the spot pay the most, because the general public doesn’t care who won the award, but they are quite curious about how much money these writers make in a year.

This curiosity mentality has quickly spread the list of writers’ wealthy lists to all parts of the Internet. Every year, writers’ income continues to rise, as if there is no boundary.

From this list, readers can fully experience the trend and unique charm of Chinese original literature. What kind of novels are more popular and which author is the real king of sales?

On this year's rich writer list, fantasy works firmly occupy the top three. Tian Boshui, Jiangnan and Lin Han are all standard fantasy writers. Everyone has a lot of ideas and has infinite fantasies.

Whether it is fantasy, fantasy, science fiction or magic, they all belong to the major category of fantasy literature.

Fantasy works are the best-selling. On the entire list, fantasy writers have become the biggest winners, and young readers account for the vast majority.

This phenomenon has the same manifestation around the world. For example, in European and American countries, the books that continue to sell are novels such as "Harry Potter" and "Twilight".

The reason why fantasy works are popular is related to a person's tendency to deal with fantasy in adolescence and before entering the real world, and humans' psychological needs for passionate and inspirational stories.

Therefore, on the Internet, fantasy novels that counterattack by waste materials have been popular for a long time, and not bullying young people to be poor has become a classic saying.

China's reading market is becoming increasingly in line with the international community.

The once popular youth literature and urban emotional novels have all retreated to the second line in sales. Both Han Han and Guo Xiaosi have declined step by step, and they have not even published new books.

The powerful rise of fantasy literature also reminds us that novels can be sold mainly rely on the content of the work, rather than the writer's appearance or popularity.

In the past two years, some people who are eager for quick success and instant benefits seem to go astray. When they choose an author, the first thing they consider is whether the author has fans. Having fans is a favorable basis for best-selling books.

This also makes the writers larger than before. They are not just writers in the traditional sense, but also stars who debut in the traditional sense. They are likely to be a very popular micro-popular celebrity, jokester, and bedtime storyteller.

As long as you have enough fans and popularity and post beautified selfies on Weibo, this type of handsome young man with high appearance will begin to seize the best-selling market.

Of course, the article on the spiritual chicken soup will never go out of date. Even if there are more and more poisonous chicken soup, various spiritual writers queens are popular in the circle of friends.

Modern people have fast pace of life and high work pressure. People generally need a series of spiritual healing, and they have a great demand for high-quality spiritual chicken soup.

Nowadays physical books are slow media, and to survive in the fast media era, you need thickness. People need both fragmented reading and thickness reading, because who reads through the trailer is not the owner of knowledge, but the way of knowledge circulation.

The writers’ rich list is the main list, and some other sub-lists were immediately revealed, including the celebrity writers’ list, the Penguin writers’ rich list, the comic writers’ rich list, the screenwriter’s rich list, the foreign writers’ rich list, etc.

The writers and income on these lists seem to be difficult to compare with the main list. Just treat it as snacks after dinner. People are still immersed in the surprise brought by RMB 59 million, digesting Lin Han's strong sales strength of RMB 21 million.

At this time, the list of rich online writers was quietly announced, and the writers, including Lin Han, were stunned.

The first-ranked online writer Tang Jiasanshao earned 110 million yuan in royalties! As a representative figure of online literature, he ranked first is not surprising, but the rare thing is this total.

The 59 million yuan in the first place has already surprised the people of the melon-eating industry. Now there is 110 million yuan. This is the first writer in China to have a royalty income of more than 100 million yuan, which has increased its income to a horrific level.

The second place is the writer Meat Macao Da Eggplant, and his annual royalty income is more than 70 million yuan.

"It's crazy!"

Lin Han was a little proud at first, but now after seeing the huge income of online writers, he began to look at him, and he was still a little short of his high income.

There is still a bet on you now, so why don’t you lose it?

He didn't care about looking at the rest of the online writers' rich list, and directly began to search for the pseudonyms of the three writers, "Return of the Dead", "Lotus Rich Bamboo", and "Loves and Loves to Give Duck Necks".

He was so stupid that he took over the book of Zhan. Will these three writers succeed?

Last year, the Dead returned to the 24th place with an income of 12 million yuan. This year, he was eager to step on Lin Han to take the lead, but his dream was quietly shattered.

Although the ranking and income have increased this year, there is still a few million yuan gap between Lin Han's 21 million yuan, and he is only 16.5 million yuan.

"The Dark Apocalypse" ranked outside the 30th with 8 million yuan in revenue, which is obviously a good result.

After seeing this, Lin Han breathed a sigh of relief. He began to search for the three online science fiction writers who had formed a group to provoke him. The positions that he had paid special attention to when entering the venue were already empty.

Lin Han raised his eyebrows. A staff member happened to pass by. He whispered: "Sorry, why are the three writers there missing?"

"It seemed like I left more than ten minutes ago. The undead said that he was allergic to food, and the other two took him to the hospital. Do you have any other needs?"

"It's gone, thank you." Lin Han touched his nose, and the three of them were really fast.

Although I am not going to kill them all, at least I have to look at their faces. I was still having fun more than ten minutes ago, so I would not notice that others would walk away.

There are many writers who keep getting up at the annual meeting. Everyone is in a well-equipped suit and may not be able to recognize them.

He breathed a sigh of regret, the future is long.

In fact, the three of them, who returned the undead and had already understood the ending when the main list of the writers and wealthy list came out. After seeing Lin Han’s 21 million, they felt sad. When they heard that this was not counting the copyright transaction fee, they were even more restless, as if they were feeling pins and pins.

They knew their own affairs, and none of the three of them could exceed 20 million. Instead of waiting for a while to sit here and be slapped in the face by Lin Han, it would be better to sneak away while no one was paying attention.

After the three of them had a plan, they quietly left the stage, waved their sleeves without taking away a cloud.

After seeing these data, Chen Jiaxuan also breathed a sigh of relief. She was still worried about Lin Han’s bet, but it seemed that the Internet was calm because there were too many news tonight.

The media can't report it, and netizens have some indigestion. As long as they are not mentioned, no one will remember it.

At this time, Lin Han's fans were celebrating their great success at the writers' annual meeting, while the failed online novel readers pretended to be amnesia. Neither party said that, and the rest were even more unaware.

The annual meeting was basically coming to an end. In order to avoid the congestion when leaving the venue later, Lin Han held the three trophys on the table with both hands, then asked the staff to take the bunch of wheat ears and walked out with Li Wenyuan.

Li Wenyuan took a trophy enviously, touched it with his hands, and said, "Do you know? This seems to be the first trophy we won at the annual meeting in science fiction."

"No, right? So miserable?"

Lin Han was shocked. It was so difficult to make a brilliant science fiction work!

"When science fiction novels were at its peak in the last century, there was no such thing as an annual meeting. It was not until two thousand years later that the annual meeting began, and science fiction novels fell into a downturn."

Since that was the case, Lin Han was generous and said, "I allow you to help me get the parking lot. Have you touched enough now? I will definitely wipe it with a towel a few more times when I go back."

At this time, the reporters were still staying outside. After they saw Lin Han who had won a great victory, they walked out with a smile on his face, and began to take photos of Lin Han with their cameras.

The trophy that was originally shrouded in the darkness suddenly became daylight.

Even though these reporters strongly invited Lin Han to interview, Lin Han just shook his head, then left quickly with his face sideways hiding from the flashlight, without giving him any face at all.

At this time, a young reporter with an internship certificate asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him? Other reporters have no way to be interviewed by us. He actually ran away like that. After winning a few awards, he was so inflamed. I think it would definitely hurt Zhongyong later."

"Just, our news agency didn't make an appointment with Lin Han. Where did you get the face on Southern Weekend? No wonder they were interns who didn't understand anything. They really thought they were the uncrowned king."

Zhu Daxing, a Xinhua reporter who was checking the photo just now, spoke up and sarcastically, saying that he is a reporter, but he is also a reader of Lin Han. The income of 21 million yuan is composed of dozens of dollars he contributed.

Now that I heard a young intern slandering his idol, I would definitely not be able to bear it, not to mention that these two media outlets have conflicts.

The reporters around are almost all old-fashioned. They are happy to watch jokes and teach newcomers a lesson.

"They have capital, you look like he is. Did you earn 210,000 or 21,000?"

"Who doesn't know that Lin Han rarely accepts interviews, and we are unwilling to do an exclusive interview when we make an appointment for an interview." The special correspondent of the People's Daily rolled his eyes.

"This is probably the real writer. He is a otakus writing all day long, but he is unwilling to attend events. We have done a special topic before, which is about the commercialization of writers. I thought that Lin Han, who changed his career from a director, must know how to manage himself, but the result was good, but he is more conservative and low-key than those seemingly conservative writers."

When it came to his favorite author Dada, Zhu Daxing also became interested. He gathered over and asked, "What does this mean? Let's talk about it in detail."

The reporters at the scene were all listeners, and the man did not keep it in a silence and said bluntly: "The secret of the publication of the publishing industry is that few writers can make a living by writing books. Whether it is the most successful writers in China or abroad, most of their income comes from public speeches, consultations or teaching. They also use the attention brought by their works to legitimately increase fees. For them, writing and publishing is just a prop to increase prices.

For example, Zhao Tianyi, an economics journalist I know, wrote an economics work, and made money by making money by tour speeches. He traveled around major universities across the country and gave training to some government agencies or enterprises. A speech costs more than 100,000 yuan, and he can give speeches to five or more universities in the same city a week.

Of course, things are a little harder for novelists. The organizers of conferences or other events will pay a considerable speech fee to well-known non-fiction writers, but are unwilling to pay novelists.

More and more writers are like pop stars. Singers used to mainly rely on selling records to make money, but now records are just sales tools, mainly relying on concerts and commercial performances to make money.

Have you ever seen Lin Han give a speech? The last time I saw him give a speech was when he was a firefighter at Tsinghua University. The price of the speech was 200,000 yuan per session.

Not to mention magazine interviews, even the olive branches extended by many TV stations were rejected by him. I have a rumor here that his agent is his girlfriend, so I don’t care about these things at all. As long as Lin Han doesn’t want to do, she supports them."

The reporters at the scene almost sighed in unison. Lin Han is really a winner in life. He makes so much money and lives as he wants. His love life is actually happy.

Nowadays, Lin Han has almost no black spots. If you want to make a news report, you can only make up old accounts, but repeatedly said that director Lin Han failed a movie. It seems that it is useless to say too much.

Isn’t it just a movie? No one in the entertainment industry has ever made a bad movie, and even Zhang Yimou has all kinds of terrible memories, let alone director Lin Han, a rookie.

...

It was already late at night, but Chen Jiaxuan was completely sleepy. She was wearing silk pajamas and leaning against the sofa, browsing the latest news with an iPad.

When she saw Lin Han leaving the venue with the trophy and wheat ears, she smiled so hard that she trembled. "I don't bring anything, but I remember to carry the wheat ears back. This person is really."

In fact, except for Chen Jiaxuan, Lin Han’s fans are truly moved. They know that giving these things to their idols is easy to be discarded aside, and sending flowers and various special handicrafts cannot escape this fate.

Even if Lin Han left the wheat ears at the venue, fans understood it very well. After all, trophy is more important than wheat ears, isn’t it?

Now seeing Lin Han clumsyly holding three trophys with his hands and holding wheat ears, the great scholars of the Hanlin Academy seemed even more moved. Such an author is so warm!

Fans don’t ask for much, and such an unintentional small move has given Lin Han a lot of hardcore fans. (To be continued.)
