Chapter 3 Galaxy Award Call for Papers
"Don't look down on others." Lin Han relaxed now, and he was willing to joke with Chen Jiaxuan, "If my novel is published, the first one will be given to you."
"It's not that I'll hit you. Now that you enter the science fiction world, you will probably be boycotted. Besides, you can earn more money in the entertainment industry than writing novels. My actress queen is about to start a new drama. It shouldn't be a problem to ask you to go to her crew to serve as the executive director. I'll go back to communicate."
Lin Han didn't want to enter the world of fame and fortune, so he shook his head and said, "Sister Xuan, you are no longer my agent, so you don't need to pay attention to these things."
Chen Jiaxuan was slightly injured. Who is she doing for? Not for you, otherwise, the beautiful Chen in the entertainment industry needs to use her artists to package sales?
Looking at the gradually changing face in front of him, Lin Han realized that his words had hurt Chen Jiaxuan. He quickly said, "Sister Xuan, I really don't want to go back for the time being, and I don't want to be pointed or rolled by others anymore. I have the confidence to write a good novel. If it really doesn't work, you can arrange any job for me!"
"That's all. If you can't write a novel that can make money within three months, then go back to the entertainment industry by obediently. Your talent should not be wasted!"
Chen Jiaxuan, who was persistent in front of her, seemed to have won. She knew the pale-faced man in front of her and really wanted to help him. There were many handsome men in the entertainment industry and many talented directors, but she fell in love with this person and could not get rid of it.
Lin Han patted his chest, "Three months is three months!"
Chen Jiaxuan looked at Lin Han who was very confident. It seemed that the person who was so energetic in the past was back. She suppressed her excitement, put on a windbreaker, and stood up with her bag, "Don't go back on her promises. I will accompany the artist to participate in the recording of a program in the afternoon. Don't drink anymore."
"No, I can't buy a few bottles of wine now. Be careful when driving slowly, don't be like a rogue female driver."
"Then you have more rest and exercise. You will be anxious now. I will bring you some fruit next time and don't make yourself look like a vampire."
"Sister Xuan, you are almost becoming a monk Tang. You will grow old if you are so verbose."
"It's not your fault to get old." Chen Jiaxuan gave Lin Han a charming look. She didn't know when this wood would be able to get enlightened.
Lin Han watched Chen Jiaxuan's beauties gradually moving away. He couldn't help laughing. He had to take a detour and see how he could bear this intention.
I met Chen Jiaxuan when I was in college. At that time, the original owner was internship in the crew of a senior director. I met Chen Jiaxuan, who had just brought the first artist. Chen Jiaxuan was also an extremely young rookie agent and didn't know anything. He often made jokes on the crew. He occasionally relied on his familiarity with the crew staff, so he helped ease the atmosphere.
Later, she grew up to be able to stand alone now and became a gold medal agent in the entertainment industry. She was only one year older than herself, but now she is not comparable to her unemployed young man.
"Whatever you think about is nothing, it's important to do the important thing."
Lin Han put these thoughts in his heart, stood up and found the latest episode of "Science Fiction World", and then read them carefully, wanting to see what the science fiction level of this world looks like. There are so many science fiction masters standing behind him, and he doesn't believe that he can't compare to these people.
It is more than enough to write a novel in three months. Lin Han is not fighting alone. He is standing on the shoulders of a giant. If this is the case, he cannot realize his wish of publication. Forget it, he should wipe his neck as soon as possible to avoid embarrassing the science fiction world on earth.
What catches your eye is a series of mechas, warship novels, robots, aliens, dimension changes, space warfare, time travel, and the end of the world. Whether it is soft science fiction or hard science fiction, they are developing rapidly, and the subject matter is very wide. This is a world that science fiction enthusiasts dream of.
At this time, several big "Galaxy Award Essays" on the cover attracted his attention.
Lin Han flipped to the corresponding call for papers and then stared at the square words and fell into deep thought. As a science fiction fan, the Galaxy Award is naturally not unfamiliar with it. It is the highest honorary award in the Chinese science fiction world and the only science fiction award in mainland China. It represents the highest level of science fiction creation in mainland China.
In his previous life, many well-known science fiction writers have won the Galaxy Award. The famous Liu Cixin is a frequent visitor to the Galaxy Award. "The Wandering Earth" won the special prize, and "Rural Teacher" won the reader nomination award. They dominate the list almost every year. As for "The Three-Body Problem", they have won numerous awards.
This is an extremely authoritative award, and once it is shortlisted, it will be immediately published in the monthly issue of "Science Fiction World". Appropriate manuscript fees can solve the urgent problem.
Although there are certain differences between the two worlds, "Science Fiction World" is still the exclusive organizer of the Galaxy Award, discovering batches of talents for the Chinese science fiction world.
Because the world's cultural and entertainment industry is very developed, and the copyright protection is quite in place, there are basically few piracy. Although it has not completely disappeared, it can only hide in the dark corners in a breath of breath, and will be suppressed as soon as it comes out.
As the largest science fiction magazine in the world, the number of readers of "Science Fiction World" is quite high, with more than 800,000 copies per issue. If a top science fiction master publishes, the sales data will soar to more than one million, which shows its influence.
The call for manuscript is relatively simple, with a basic requirement of less than 20,000 words, and the royalties are 100-500 yuan/1,000 words. The royalties are paid in the month of publication. If the prize is shortlisted, the prize will be calculated separately.
Because "Science Fiction World" is widely distributed, the magazine itself is relatively rich, and can also attract a lot of sponsorships, so the prize money of the Galaxy Award naturally also rises, and it is getting higher and higher every year.
Unlike Lin Han's previous life, the special prize was only 100,000 yuan, and it has risen in the past year, only 30,000 yuan before.
For the Galaxy Award here, the special prize is RMB 500,000, the first prize is RMB 200,000, the outstanding prize is RMB 100,000, the reader nomination award and the best newcomer award are RMB 50,000 each. Of course, these are all pre-tax.
But the more troublesome thing about this call for papers is that from the date of receiving the bonus of the submission work, it is directly regarded as the adaptation rights of the work, such as games, films, animations, micro-films, etc., to be handed over to the sponsor for free to the agent.
In other words, if Lin Han gets the bonus, his science fiction copyright will basically be left to others to take responsibility, and part of his rights will be crossed out in vain. However, when he is not famous, these benefits must be taken out.
