Chapter 42 Amazing payment rate

Yinlan Bookstore officially announced the five winners of this Supernova Awards at the end of the month. Lin Yuan also received a notice from Yang Feng and saw "Net King" at the last one of the winners.

"The little note will be published tomorrow."

Yang Feng gave Lin Yuan a vaccination: "But you don't have to pay too much attention to novel sales. Sports competition is a niche subject after all, and sales are not the only way to prove your work. In short, congratulations on becoming a novelist."

Lin Yuan said: "Thank you."

Yang Feng smiled: "Then I'll have a hangup here first. The company has a publishing conference. When the novel is officially published tomorrow, we will send you a few free books. In addition, you can also go to major bookstores to visit. The major bookstores in Qinzhou will be officially launched tomorrow."

"Okay, goodbye."

After the call, Yang Feng put away his phone and entered the conference room. At this moment, the editors in the conference room were discussing the results of this supernova: "I don't know how the sales of supernova this year are. I am very optimistic about the number one "The Demon King of Another World". After the protagonist travels through another world, he is a demon king that everyone calls for. This creative direction is quite unique, at least it is more interesting."

"I'm more optimistic about the second one."

"The second author, Dalong, is an old bird. This guy has long been a novelist. He just wore a vest to get a newcomer quota. However, the novel he wrote this time is indeed quite interesting. The protagonist was actually summoned by the princess to another world."

“…”

Everyone was discussing it enthusiastically.

Some people are optimistic about the first place, some are optimistic about the second place, and some people think that the third place is also good, but the Net King discusses the least, because the editors of the entire Yinlan Library know that the fifth place was forced to add to the editor-in-chief to enrich the market themes.

Everyone can understand this.

The homogeneity of the subject matter in the novel market is indeed somewhat serious, which is not conducive to the overall development of the novel circle. Therefore, starting this year, major publishing companies, including Yinlan Book Library, have made attempts to promote new themes, so as to achieve the purpose of guiding the diversification of market creation directions in disguise.

After the supernova award results are announced.

There is a survey on the introduction of the winning works and readers' expectations on the official website. Many invited old readers filled out the questionnaire. The result of the questionnaire is that the top three supernova winners have the highest expectations!

This is not surprising.

Because the top three are all different categories.

The fifth-placed "Net King" has the lowest expectations, and readers seem to be uninterested in the congenital nature of tennis. Even though the official website introduction has always emphasized that this is a sports competition novel that can be understood even if you don't understand tennis, it still failed to change the results of this questionnaire.

Some people even protested on the official website!

This is a retention project after the results of supernova were announced every year. There are always some pretentious but missed authors who think that the award-winning of supernova is unfair, especially this year's selection of "Net King" has stimulated the nerves of many unsuccessful candidates.

"Why?"

"Qinzhou has never had a precedent for sports competition themes to explode, let alone a novel about tennis. In order to make the subject matter not only, Yinlan Book Library forced such a work to rank fifth, which is really disappointing."

The first four are all popular topics.

The fifth naturally becomes the target.

However, Yinlan Bookstore ignored these protests. In the editorial department's opinion, even if "Net King" is indeed a little niche, the quality of this novel itself is definitely not as unbearable as judged by the outside world.

"It's a pity that He Mingxuan."

An editor suddenly shook his head and said.

He Mingxuan is a novelist who has already debuted. This time he put on a vest to contribute to a supernova, and his works have received good reviews. After reading his works, many editors suggested that He Mingxuan's works be the fifth place in this supernova essay contest.

But unfortunately he met "The King of Nets".

The editor-in-chief's reason convinced everyone: "First, the market needs diversified guidance, and secondly, He Mingxuan is an old man after all. Although there are elderly people wearing vests every year, I think this is not a good phenomenon. We should give newcomers more opportunities."

He Mingxuan was therefore not selected.

The editor who has a good relationship with He Mingxuan also comforted He Mingxuan for this: "If it weren't for enriching the market theme, you should be able to rank fifth this time, so it's not that you are not strong enough this time, but that your luck is a little worse."

...

Although He Mingxuan is the so-called sixth supernova, he did not participate in the protests of some of the losers against "Net King" because when he first debuted, some people had similar protests on his works, so he knew very well what it was like to protest against the losers. He would never become the kind of person he once hated the most.

The editor is right.

He also felt that he was a little unlucky this time. After all, he encountered a special situation, not to mention that he was not a newcomer, and it was not glorious to snatch the newcomer's chance in a vest, so it was naturally understandable that he would make concessions to the newcomer in the end.

"Maybe I'm not suitable for writing books."

He Mingxuan is a little self-doubted. He debuted as a novelist five years ago, and even won the quarterly championship in the sales of novels. However, after the book was completed, he wrote several books in a row and failed, so few publishers are willing to publish his works now.

This made He Mingxuan very painful.

If it weren't for this reason, he wouldn't have shamelessly participated in a newcomer award like Supernova. For every novelist, snatching opportunities with newcomers is a proof that they have failed to make a fuss.

He Mingxuan couldn't sleep that night.

The next morning, He Mingxuan walked into the bookstore closest to his home in a daze, and subconsciously looked at the first row of bookshelfs in the bookstore.

This bookshelves were once filled with his works.

But today, the works of the top five supernovas are all on it.

His sixth place has no merits.

There are many people reading books in the bookstore, most of them are young readers, and everyone comes to this bookshelves-

Readers are also full of expectations for the award-winning works of supernova just like in previous years.

But it is not easy to get them to pay for their money to buy books.

Few people buy books directly. Most of them pick up the books first and search for a quiet corner, and read tens of thousands of words first.

Only when you are sure that it is your favorite story will readers pay honestly.

He Mingxuan once did something that is very stupid to think about now.

He sat in the corner of the bookstore for a whole day, without doing anything else, just observing the readers who bought books.

Whenever someone buys He Mingxuan's book, he will be secretly excited and ecstatic.

today.

Enter the bookstore.

He Mingxuan also subconsciously observed it.

No surprises, the first thing everyone picked up was the bookstore’s heavy recommendations, that is, works that won the top three supernovas.

However, what surprised He Mingxuan was that everyone's purchase rate today was not high, and many people picked up the book and read it for a while and put it back.

However, the payment rate for a book was beyond He Mingxuan's expectations.

This book is the "Net King" that made He Mingxuan the sixth place.

In fact, there are very few readers who pick up "The King of Nets" to read.

Compared to the top four, there are so few people who are interested in "The King of Nets" that they are a bit pitiful.

In sharp contrast to this pitifulness,

Readers who picked up "The King of Nets" to watch it basically bought the book in the end!

He Mingxuan also counted it specifically for this.

There are only 18 readers who are willing to pick up "The King of Nets" to read them since they entered the bookstore.

but!

There are fifteen people who have read "The King of Nets" and are willing to buy it!
Chapter completed!
