Chapter 2 Myth? Serialized?
"Where, don't think so much. It's not easy to come to Hengdian. Let's go shopping. Hengdian is still very good. Qin Palace, Qingming Shanghetu, you can go and have a look. I'll communicate with the crew first to see when I have time for an interview. I think I have to wait until tomorrow. Don't worry!" Zhao Yu patted Wang Zhengfei on the shoulder and said.
"That's good!" Wang Zhengfei thought about it and felt that Zhao Yu's words were right. Just like the previous exams, the more nervous he was, the easier it was to forget it.
"Oh, and the editor-in-chief asked me to ask you, how did you think about putting "Myth" in our magazine serializing as I told you last time?" Zhao Yu suddenly remembered something and asked.
"Myth"?" Wang Zhengfei hesitated on his face.
This "Myth" is just a product of his boredom. In his previous life, the movie version and TV series version of "Myth" were very popular for a period of time, but from the plot, there were still many loopholes. Wang Zhengfei was bored for a while, so he wrote out the relatively perfect version, mainly It was self-entertainment, but it also won a talent for him. Later, an accident was seen by the editor-in-chief of the magazine, and somehow he came up with the idea of serializing "Myth" as a serial novel in the magazine.
In this world, in the era when even the starting point was just established, if the author wants to make his works widely known, in addition to publishing, he publishes his works in newspapers and magazines.
However, Wang Zhengfei really didn't plan to be a writer or anything. Besides, his magazine is a gossip magazine, which mainly reports some celebrity news and some lace news. Suddenly inserting his "Myth" in his opinion, it is completely inappropriate and completely out of place.
Seeing Wang Zhengfei's hesitation, Zhao Yu patiently persuaded: "Zhengfei, although we are entertainment magazines, no one has stipulated that entertainment magazines can only report some gossip peripheral news. Look, Hong Kong's Ming Pao is not supported by Jin Yong's novels, and now it has become a famous newspaper in Hong Kong!"
"How can my novel be compared with Mr. Jin Yong!" Wang Zhengfei shook his head and said.
"No one compares you with him. There are so many people who write novels in China, and there are several people who dare to say that they can compare with Jin Yong, but you know that the sales of magazines are much worse than before recently. The editor-in-chief has almost scratched all his hair for the sake of sales. Using your novel serialization is also an attempt to expand sales. You There is no need to have too much psychological pressure. No one forces you to say that you must use your novels to save the magazine, but it's always a way!" Zhao Yu taught patiently.
"And I know that your family is not particularly rich, otherwise you don't have to go out to work. The editor-in-chief said that you can spend 20,000 yuan to buy your serialization rights in the magazine. You can publish it in other places, but after the magazine serialization is completed, how about it? The conditions are very favorable, if you don't belong to our magazine. People, how can there be such favorable conditions!" Zhao Yu induced.
Wang Zhengfei was silent for a moment. He didn't know how other authors calculated this share, but he didn't plan to make money from this, so this can be regarded as a windfall. Although their family's situation is not to mention poverty, it is still close to a well-off society. After supplying two people to school, It seems to be overstretched. If you can have this unexpected wealth, you don't need to reach out to the house for at least two years. It's impossible not to be moved.
However, he can also see that the sales situation of the magazine is very unsatisfactory, otherwise he will agree not to such a condition.
Seeing Wang Zhengfei's somewhat moved expression, Zhao Yu quickly said, "Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your parents. It's not so easy for your parents to support you to go to college!"
"In that case, that's all right, but I hope to settle the money in advance!" Wang Zhengfei said that the situation of the magazine is so bad now. If the effect is not good and the editor-in-chief repudiates the debt, he has nowhere to cry!
The film version and TV series version of "Myth" have achieved quite good results, but it is a film and television drama, and the adaptation into a novel is completely different, and according to the sales volume of novels adapted from film and television dramas in the past, it is not particularly ideal.
"Yes, no problem at all! I will talk to the editor-in-chief about this!" Zhao Yu said with a smile.
"Actually, I think your novel is well written, isn't it? Especially the time-travel in this "Myth", er, yes, the concept of time-travel is brand-new. Can you completely subsidize your family by writing novels? Zhao Yu said with a smile.)
"Time travel is not my original creation. Huang Yi has created this concept in "Looking for Qin" in 1994. I just borrowed this setting!" Wang Zhengfei said honestly.
Huang Yi's "Looking for Qin" is definitely the originator of the time-traveling stream. It successfully used a novel to interpret what time-traveling is. Basically, the later time-travel articles are influenced by "Looking for Qin", which can be said to be a generation of master-level characters, and he also created the concept and genre of fantasy, which has a far-reaching influence.
"Do you have it?" Zhao Yu looked at the ceiling and said. But I haven't read it anyway. The time-travel novel I've read is just yours. I think a lot of people will like it!"
"Write a novel? Forget it, write a novel. I know my writing. I guess there is no hope of publication!" In this era when online literature did not rise, authors generally make money through publishing, but they also pay special attention to writing. Although Wang Zhengfei's writing is not bad, after all, he has also honed a lot when writing the novel Myth, but it is far from the requirements of the heads of those publishing houses. Ordinary people read it. It's okay to see, but if you are seen by those literati who are full and have nothing to do, they will not be criticized to death!
"Don't say that either. It's not certain. I also know a lot of bosses in the publishing industry. I can completely introduce you to them. In that case, there should be no problem. I tell you that publishing is actually not as difficult as you think. The key is that there is a good way and quality. Your book is no problem at all, and the only thing I owes. What we lack is connections. In this regard, our magazine is the most indispensable. Our own people don't help you, so who will help you!" Zhao Yu said with a smile.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!" Wang Zhengfei solemnly thanked him and said that there are many roads, although he may not have to rely on this road to make a living in the future.
I have a completed book of one million words, so I can rest assured to collect it!
