A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 142: Initial D
Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief after submitting the manuscript for the last chapter of the Parasitic Beast novel.

Coupled with the fact that the first three volumes of the Parasitic Beasts booklet were released in just one week, the average sales volume of the combined volumes was also 190 million copies, which also lifted Xia Yan's spirits.

The length of the Parasitic Beast can release five separate volumes, and judging from the sales volume of the first three volumes in a single week, the average sales volume of this work is 500 million volumes.

Based on this sales data, it is estimated that the dividend that Xia Yan can get from the booklet will be between 500 million and 3000 million.

This is the income of the creator of a top novella in Longguo plus the blessing of a top book club.

The bosses of the companies in the Duomodu area may work hard for a year to keep the company from losing money, but the authors who can serialize light novels in the two journals of Liuli and Liuli, no matter how bad they are, will definitely have an income of several million a year , going up, it is normal for those light novel writers who are the pillars of book clubs to earn hundreds of millions a year.

It can be said that Xia Yan went bankrupt in order to make the animation of the magical girl Madoka, and the big sale of the Parasite booklet also made him feel good.

However, the dividends of these booklets will take some time to arrive, and they will be credited to the account every month in the next year. After all, the sales company also distributes dividends to Xia Yan while selling books, so Xia Yan still Have a hard time.

He originally planned to buy a boy's dream car after he got his driver's license, but he couldn't help it, the matter was urgent, and the matter was postponed.

Now, his mind is active again.

Holding a mobile phone, browsing various sports cars in the Dragon Kingdom on the Internet, delving into their performance, components, and prices
Boys, happiness is as simple as that. Some people like to study cars to pretend to be aggressive, while others like cars just because they like these mechanical monsters.

Even Xia Yan, without the pressure of serializing novels, can easily indulge in this kind of thing for several hours.

Xia Yan fell asleep while playing with his mobile phone at home
Perhaps when he was sober, Xia Yan's heart was to buy a handsome red supercar and drive to the gate of the primary school after the dividends from the booklet were credited to the account.
This kind of thing has been Xia Yan's dream since elementary school.

Because I always think about these things, Xia Yan
Entered Yuan Qing's dream again.

In fact, the frequency of Xia Yan entering Yuan Qing's memory dream is about once a week to ten days, but most of the time he is watching this deep house girl playing games or watching some other world toilet paper animations in the dream. Basically Xia Yan I also know that those works will also rush if they get the Dragon Kingdom.

Just when Xia Yan thought that this time he would be bored watching girls playing games.
She really went to play games, gta6, driving around in the city, not obeying traffic rules, even running traffic lights, but she is still addicted to game crimes, Xia Yan frowned.

After all, he can only immerse himself in the girl's memory world, but in fact he has nothing to play with, and the more he looks at it, the more he gets annoyed.

Finally tired from racing in the game, the girl turned on the computer.

"The recent dramas are getting more and more boring, find some old dramas to watch again"

Yuan Qing searched the Internet boringly and finally clicked on the playback link of an anime
Initial D.

Seeing this, Xia Yan was shocked.

Although he has never seen the specific plot of this work in the girl's memory, but
When the girl was browsing the web, and wasting time in the animation community and forums, the names of "Autumn Mountain Car God" and "Tofu Shop Takumi" were also swiped in front of Xia Yan's screen from the comments of various netizens.

This is a masterpiece that as long as people in the parallel world surf the Internet, even if they haven't read it, they will have heard the name and the legend of "Autumn Mountain ae86".

"Could it be that I had a deep connection with Yuan Qing's memory because I've been brushing up on car-related knowledge all day today, so that the memory of my dream tonight directly showed me the work "Initial D"? "

Xia Yan guessed thoughtfully.

Otherwise, where is such a coincidence?

But at this time, Xia Yan didn't have time to think about so many things, and followed the girl's perspective, recalling this classic old drama.

Look at this.
Xia Yan was fascinated.

a few hours later.
Three in the middle of the night.

Xia Yan woke up from the dream.

This time, after all, it was just a review of the classics. Yuan Qing casually read the previous episodes of Initial D, but Xia Yan was greatly shocked by the contents of the first few episodes.

Can racing works be created like this?

Each of these episodes is broken chapters, Xia Yan has been serializing light novels in Longguo all day long, hunting geese all day long, but was blinded by geese.This time, being forced to break the chapter by Yuan Qing in memory made a lot of people feel uncomfortable.

But
Really nice.

Xia Yan took a deep breath, and recalled the content of the initial D that he had seen before.

But when his brain thought about it, he frowned.

this work
It's not suitable to be adapted into a light novel at all.

Some works can be adapted into light novels, such as Parasitic Beast. Although the original work is a manga, Xia Yan can still be read by so many readers after changing it into a light novel.

Because the parasitic beast is a work that is purely based on the plot, the original comics and animations are not very brilliant in terms of painting style and fighting, so adapting it into a novel will not make the work lose its color. In terms of the embarrassing fights with physical blades, Xia Yan spent a considerable amount of time in Longguo's light novel version, using words to describe the fights of parasitic beasts, at least in the minds of readers of Longguo novels. The screen should be stronger than the original manga and animation. .

But initial D
no way.
Drift, inertial drift, passing drains, 720-degree circle in situ scene
These things are too pale to be described in words.

One hundred percent of the appeal of the picture becomes a text description, and it may only be seventy percent.

"So... there are only two themes that are suitable for it."

"Anime, and manga."

Xia Yan didn't sleep in the middle of the night and began to think.

Although I have watched a few episodes of the animation before, Xia Yan also knows that according to the practice of remembering dreams, the follow-up plot of the initial D will be supplemented slowly in the future under the pressure of Xia Yan's day and night thoughts. , he naturally began to think about how to move this work to this world at this moment.

What Xia Yan watched was the animated version of Initial D. From a logical point of view, it must be more appropriate for him to directly make the initial D into an animation.

But the problem is that Xia Yan's "Xia Tang Animation Production Company" is currently busy with the production of "Magic Girl Madoka".

Magical Girl Madoka will start airing on April [-]rd, and it won't end until June. Then, Xia Yan's company members will be able to free up their hands to make the "Initial D" animation, and then make another few months and half a year. According to this process, even if Xia Yan's initial D is successfully produced as an animation, it will not start broadcasting until the end of the year or early next year.

This...is too procrastinating.

Timing is everything.

It's only March now, who knows what kind of excellent works will be drilled out of the girl Yuan Qing's memories and dreams from now until the end of the year?

If the initial D of Xia Yan's work obtained from the memory dream in March this year has to wait until next year to be released, then he estimates that he will not have to pay attention to the memory of the dream in three to five years. Yuan Qing's memory in the past three to five years The content is enough for him to carry it for a lifetime.

Moreover, the original work of Initial D is a comic, and it is most suitable to restore it into a comic work in Longguo. The comic version of Initial D makes money once, and the animation version makes money again, so as to maximize the commercial value.

Xia Yan thought for a long time
"Then it's better to make it into a comic version."

Xia Yan has already set foot in the novel and animation industries, but in the comics industry, Xia Yan actually had a hunch that he couldn't avoid it.

As for how to adapt Initial D into comics, that's not difficult.

Just invite a manga artist with excellent drawing skills to work together.

He provides the script, and the other party draws comics. Xia Yan must own the full copyright of other types of works, but the profit share of the comics can be appropriately distributed to the partners.

Thought of here
The face of Mo Ran, the president of the comic club, appeared in Xia Yan's mind.

In Long Country, there are many cartoonists with excellent comic drawing skills. If Xia Yan is willing to spend money, then everything is easy to talk about.

Mo Ran can only say that her drawing skills are excellent, but Xia Yan does not dare to say how good her drawing skills are, but she is definitely better than ordinary professional cartoonists.

Of course, no matter what, her drawing skills must be replaced by others, but Xia Yan's friendship with her and her understanding of her are things that those unfamiliar cartoonists can't replace.

Mo Ran has no ambitions, and has a gentle personality. She is very honest on weekdays. She made an appointment with her, and she was never late. Even if it rained heavily once, she came here before the appointed time in the rain. The comic club explained to Xia Yan what he needed to know.If he cooperates with her, Xia Yan has great confidence that she won't do anything wrong.

Xia Yan is very clear.

This kind of two-person cooperation mode, drawing skills is only one of them, the most important thing is that the partners should not be too jumpy.

For example, before Xia Yan cooperated with the other party, he directly stated that the other party is just earning a hard-earned money for drawing comics, and don't think about other copyright issues and interests of the work.

Because works like Initial D cannot be replaced by the plot content, as for painting skills, it is easy to replace, so it must be normal for Xia Yan to propose this cooperation model.

But in the middle of the cooperation, if the other party is really jealous of the benefits of the initial D, they post a small essay on the Internet, accusing Xia Yan of engaging in an overlord contract, squeezing the partners, and turning black and white, saying that the initial D is actually him participating in the plot Conception. Wait for Brabla's article.
Going to a lawsuit, the contract in black and white is definitely not winable by the other party, but as long as this kind of lawsuit is fought, in terms of interests, Xia Yan will definitely lose
Because the majority of melon-eating readers must sympathize with the weaker side, maybe Xia Yan will be directly condemned by the melon-eaters in the industry, and his reputation will be notorious, which will directly affect the reputation and sales of the work.

Such examples, at least in the Dragon Kingdom, still exist.

Xia Yan thought about it for a long time at night, and finally let out a long breath.

"School has just started for a week now, and the initial D has only learned the contents of the previous episodes in memory. This space is not enough to find someone else to talk about cooperation. Wait a while and make an appointment with her at the comic club."

However, these are all Xia Yan’s unilateral ideas, and the other party has to have the interest and time in this area, and is willing to accept that they are partners on the surface, and the joint creation is actually helping Xia Yan to work and earn hard money for drawing comics. Only way to cooperate.
　The work of Initial D has also been written in the previous book, but I am tired of writing it too.But let’s consider the amount of readers’ reading. For example, in the plot of the animation after the magic circle, I will write some new works.

　　Cross-write, otherwise old readers will think that my writing is repetitive, and new readers will think that the author is stupid. There are so many classic works. If cl and fate are not good enough, why not write some unpopular works.

　　In the past few days, the comment area is full of cl, fate, and steel refining. I basically understand the type of works that readers of this book like in the comments in April.

　　But let readers old and new take care
　　But if I write unpopular works like Going to the Moon later, everyone just don’t complain.

　　Because some people like to watch classic old dramas, and some people like to watch me write unpopular works, I can only take care of them properly.
