A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Although Xia Yan strictly speaking does not belong to the circle of film and television stars, but based on his activity in the Dragon Country in the past two years, his popularity is even higher than those stars.

If a creator only created one classic work, most audiences may not remember him, but someone like Xia Yan who has created dozens of works in a few years is completely different up.

Xia Yan didn't mean that the whole country must know about his family affairs, but he couldn't hide the fact that he was going to get married anyway. Rather than being exposed by the paparazzi at that time, he might as well announce it himself.

Then, the two-dimensional circle of Longguo experienced a collective earthquake overnight.

"Married? Didn't he get married without a girlfriend?"

"Damn, isn't the fiancee he mentioned in the picture he sent the vice president of Xia Tang Animation Company?"

"?"

"But I remember that this vice president wasn't Xia Yan's novel editor in his home province back then, and then he was hired by him to start Xiatang Animation after he came to Shanghai? How did he become his fiancée?"

"It's normal, she's so beautiful, and she works with the old thief every day, so it's not surprising that she has a relationship for a long time!"

"But, I feel so sudden! In my impression, the old thief is still the high school student a few years ago, and he is about to get married now."

"It's not too late to get married at the age of 23. Long Guo became an adult at the age of 16. Many people have children at this time."

"That's the way to say it, or it was too sudden. I'm a fan of the old thief Xia Yan. He's 12 years younger than me. I'm still single, so he got married."

"I'm 40 years old and single, what do I say, the old thief moves faster when he gets married, his child has grown up, and he is not yet 40 years old."

"I'm numb. I asked why the old thief was so quiet during this period of time. He didn't make such a big move like before. It turned out that he was distracted here."

"Crying to death, our girl fans are really uncomfortable now, Xia Yan is married, it's over."

"When you read Xia Yan's old thief's works, is there any difference between female fans and male fans? Whether he gets married or not doesn't affect his creation of works."

"But a lot of people are chasing the old thief Xia Yan as an alternative star in the Two-dimensional world! Now that he's getting married, isn't it that, the filter has collapsed."

"Heh, what does the old thief care about? Those of you who have been to the old thief's on-site signing event, you will know after a few words with him that he is only good for fans of works. They are all very indifferent. He has a clear positioning of himself, a pure creator, not a traffic star, and never cares about what those people think."

"That's right, what does the old thief need to estimate when he gets married? This is his private matter. His parents are gone. He has full power to decide this matter. As fans, we don't need to discuss how his fiancée developed. We just need to bless him That's it."

"Xia Tang Animation, Xia Tang Animation is like this. When the old thief founded this company, he probably already had interest in Tang Yin."

"Maybe you fell in love with him in high school, otherwise why did you recruit Tang Yin to the company after college?"

"I didn't expect the old thief to have such a character?"

"Bless the old thief!"

"bless!"

"He brought me seven years of joy, at least today I have to bless him."

"Above, are you sure that his works bring you seven years of joy instead of seven years of abuse? There are not many old thief works with happy endings, all of which are about abuse."

"Don't say it, don't say it, besides, I'm going to scold the old thief again. At least today, I still want to give him some face."

"At least today, let's bless him. I don't even know where the traffic fans of those old thieves come from. When I asked how many of the old thieves' works I hadn't seen, I took the old thieve's refined pictures all over the Internet. Spread the word, old thieves are not dead at all to those stars who are in the traffic circle! And although they are handsome, they are not in the same style as those noodles. If you only look at their looks, there are many in the entertainment industry who are more suitable for these people. I don't understand."

"But the old thief is talented, and has a good reputation. The appearance, reputation and talent alone are pretty average, but when combined together, they will blow up. And those little boys who can only play handsome and hook up with female fans Compared with fresh meat, the gap is huge."

Among Xia Yan's fans, follower fans still account for a relatively small proportion. Some fans can't accept Xia Yan's engagement, and there are also those who abuse Tang Yin on the Internet, but basically they will be scolded back by Xia Yan's true love fans, and they can't afford it. Too big waves.

However, after the fan commotion, the media in Longguo became excited.

Xia Yan is getting married, so skip the dating stage and get married?
No, it was because he was in a relationship and he never got photographed by the news paparazzi like Longguo.

As the most outrageously popular person in the two-dimensional circle of Longguo, Xia Yan's current troubles will be widely reported.

With fans and the media fueling the flames, within a few days, many people in the Two-dimensional circle and even the film and television circle knew the news.

Posts digging Xia Yan and Tang Yin's past also emerged in endlessly. To be honest, these things also affected Xia Yan and Tang Yin, but only a little.

Xia Yan and Tang Yin certainly wouldn't care too much about media reports, mainly from Tang Yin's family.

Xia Yan and Tang Yin's father have met before, but they basically have no contact with each other. Xia Yan has Xia Yan's animation broadcast, and other people have other people's film and television drama productions, and they are very busy with each other.

As for Tang Yin, although he had told his father about falling in love with Xia Yan, the two had already progressed to the point of getting married, so he had never heard of it.

So when Tang Yin's father saw the news that Xia Tang Animation's deputy Dong Tang Yin was getting married on the mobile phone news software, his first reaction was to be confused.

What?My daughter is getting married, and I, a father, got the news from the news.

For this, Tang Yin was severely scolded by her father for a few days, and Xia Yan had to visit the future father-in-law in the next few days to apologize.

Although Xia Yan and Tang Yin are a few years apart in age, Xia Yan doesn't care, and Tang Yin's father will not make a fuss about it. Besides, Xia Yan's current scale of Xia Tang Animation is several times the value of his film and television company. He couldn't fault it either.
Relatively speaking, it is a matter of going through the process.

After spending some time getting to know some of the main relatives of Tang Yin's family, Xia Yan also temporarily stopped the turmoil caused by the engagement.

For Xia Yan fans, the focus of their attention must be Xia Yan's works.

Now, Hunter has been serialized to the middle of the chapter of Greed Island, and the average sales volume of the manga volume has exceeded 800 million copies. If the serialization continues like this, it will basically reach the chapter of Ants. The manga of Hunter will become the first volume in the history of Dragon Kingdom. Works with sales exceeding 3000 million.

Ganglian has also entered the later stage of the work, the villain in a bottle, the final boss, has also begun to surface, and the true identity of the father of Edward's two brothers has also begun to be exposed. Up to now, Ganglian's ratings have basically reached 6.7% to 6.8% In between, but the ratings of this thing still want to break through, it is necessary to look at the operation, the vast majority of Two-dimensional fans in Longguo are the audience of hunting steel, if you want to break the 7% mark, good publicity In the near future, the work must continue to have intensive topics, and the plot must also develop to a place that impresses the audience very much. The combination of various factors may be able to break the ratings ceiling, so in the last two months when the steel refining is about to end During the time, Xia Yan and Modu TV1 were also planning on this matter.

Climbing the heights is something that will never stop, and Xia Yan is not sure if there will be someone in Longguo who can suddenly burst out with a masterpiece and break his record in the future.

So now he has to push this ratings record higher, and breaking the 7% single-episode ratings record is also very important for the Longguo TV industry, even if it is only one episode. It can also represent the success of the Longguo TV industry At the peak moment, at this moment, what Shanghai TV1 cares about is this honor.

As for Sword Art Online, it is still being serialized passionately in the uw chapter, and the sales volume of the single book has not seen an increase, but there is no downward trend, and it remains very stable.

The popularity of the series of cartoons is also very stable, and the ratings have always been sent back above 6%, but it is basically difficult to compete with works such as steel refining and slam dunk.

There is no way, the pinnacle of Sword Art Online is the Sao chapter, and the subsequent chapters cannot be said to be bad, but it is always difficult to give the audience the feeling that the quality of this work is improving, and this still has an impact on the ratings.

Of course, after Mitsui Shou's plot, Slam Dunk entered the main story and started a pure basketball animation journey.

The previous funnyness faded away, and the emotion was restrained, leaving the audience with pure passion.

After the story of the slam dunk game between Xiangbei and Xiangyang, all audiences are now fully immersed in the passion of the game. In the past few months, the slam dunk was a funny animation, and all the comments about bad boy animations disappeared.

Moreover, the popularity of the slam dunk animation has also led to the enthusiasm of the basketball industry in Longguo. The sales of various basketball training classes, online shopping for basketball, basketball uniforms and other things have directly increased by a large amount compared to last year.

This made many players in the basketball field of Longguo and the surrounding manufacturers grateful to Xia Yan while being confused.

In the parallel world, slam dunk is the basketball enlightenment animation that affects millions of people. This kind of sports animation, slam dunk, chess spirit, and football captain, are all works that make millions of people devote themselves to related sports in their respective eras , and now, this trend is being staged in Longguo.

In January, after the New Year's Day, the Spring Festival will soon be ushered in.

Xia Yan spent the Spring Festival with others for the first time since his sophomore year in high school. He stayed directly at Tang Yin's house during the whole Spring Festival and spent half a month honestly with his future father-in-law.

To be honest, it feels pretty good.

Wait till January passes, February comes
At the beginning of this month, Xia Yan aired Steel Refining in a series of works. The plot finally reached its climax.

The most powerful existence among the androids, the battle between the President and Edward's gang, finally went offline.

This whole work brings the strongest sense of oppression to the audience, and the IQ and combat power are all off-line of the existence of the ceiling, but it does not make the fans feel happy, but in this battle between artificial man and human, there is infinite emotion .

Artificial man, is it wrong?

Big President, is he evil?
If you were him, what choice would you make?

Such a big president who has done all kinds of bad things, after seeing his life, not many audiences hate him.

And the actions of Xia Yan and Modu TV began here.

Xia Yan added additional publicity funds, and Modu TV also used offline channels to carry out high-intensity publicity before the completion of the steel smelting.

Finally, the second week of February
In order to fight against the final boss in Steel Refining, who has mastered the Philosopher's Stone, and wants to destroy the entire country, and even the entire time, the villain in a bottle, brothers Edward and his father Hohenheim fought to the end, but they were still defeated.

Edward's brother, Alphonse, made the final decision.

Sacrificing one's own soul, at the price of returning to nothingness, came to the door of truth and sacrificed everything.
In exchange for the arms and legs of his brother Edward.

Edward in the strongest form, the most angry Edward, Edward who lost his brother, beat the villain in a bottle who was also at the end of his strength in this episode.

What you want to gain, you have to lose.

Edward and his brother Alphonse spent their whole lives trying to get back their lost body.
Edward's lost body was exchanged for his younger brother's soul.

This animation's exploration of philosophy, the sublimation of fate, and the interpretation of this line of the soul of the whole work, in the later stages of this animation, once again shocked the fans of Longguo Steel Refining.

Although there are still a few episodes of steel refining to be completed, the audience of Longguo has already felt the breath of the depressing ending of this animation.

"No! Old thief, don't do this, give Alphonse a happy ending!"

"My favorite in this animation is my younger brother Alphonse, old thief, don't kill him!"

"I can't accept it, what kind of plot is this! Brother Alphonse doesn't have to go offline, does he?"

"The old thief's soul of depression is online again?"

"The old thief has made a mistake? The villain in the bottle is at the end of his battle, and let Alphonse sacrifice like this, I don't accept it!"

"This episode made me cry to death!"

"Farewell, old thief. I don't want to do a knife. Even if these two people can't recover their bodies, wouldn't it be good to let Alphonse live with his soul fixed behind the armor? Why do you have to let him die?"

"What does such an ending mean to Edward? He regained his body, defeated the villain in the bottle, and then his brother died. What kind of ending is this!"

"Isn't the old thief a tragedy for tragedy's sake?"

"I don't understand, I can't accept it."

"Even if Edward beats the villain in a bottle violently in this episode of Old Thief, I can't accept it."

"Let's see how the old thief will deal with it in the next episode. The villain in the bottle is not dead yet, maybe there will be a turning point."

"The old thief is playing big chess?"

"Alphonse's figurines are selling so well, no matter what the old thief thinks, he won't kill him. Besides, the protagonist has been busy for so many episodes. His ideal is to restore his brother's body. You said that if the ending of this work is his brother's death, that's a big deal. Can it work? We watched dozens of episodes of cartoons, and finally saw the failure of the protagonist's life. An animation definitely can't end like this."

"That's right, the main character Lelouch died because Lelouch finally made the world what he imagined. Although a person dies, his will lasts forever. But if the steel refining makes the younger brother die, it will really end the loneliness. Let the bold words of the protagonist Edward in the first episode become a clown, and his adventures and journeys in these dozens of episodes have also become a clown."

In this episode, Steel Refining's audience rating was 6.85%
Steel Refining In this episode, Alphonse paid the price of his soul in exchange for his body in order to save Edward, which really gave the audience a big knife.

And the discussion caused by the plot of this episode is exactly what Xia Yan and Modu TV1 want.

This work of Ganglian will not be too rigid about small details. The deaths of the characters are all tragic and straightforward.

To put it bluntly, it is a work with great stamina.

At the end of the work, Alphonse's sacrifice brought the brotherhood of the two to a new height, and...
Using Alphonse's death as a gimmick to promote Steel Refining in the next week, so that the ratings of the next episode will increase again, is the goal of both parties.

So Xia Yan and Magic City TV not only did not stop the discussion, but also fueled it, hiring trolls to hype it up.

In addition, Xia Tang Animation and the official website of Modu TV released some ambiguous smoke bombs at the same time to confuse fans. Xia Yan plans to appear on TV programs three times in a row in this week to promote Steel Refining.

At the same time, the originally scheduled penultimate episode and the finale will be broadcast simultaneously next week to increase the viewing popularity of that day.

For Xia Yan now, the actions he can do are relatively limited, but he has done what should be done.

As for the ending of Steel Refining, Time can break the score of Lelouch's ending and break through the 7% audience rating mark.
Xia Yan let out a long breath in the office and looked out the window at the sunrise in February.

Just look at tomorrow.
