A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 39 Release Date

"You also know that the influence of our book club is basically only within the scope of the Southern Province, and the population of the Southern Province is only about 7000 million. Normally speaking, judging from the popularity of Starlight yesterday, in the Southern Province area, the average number of volumes is The sales volume will be around [-] to [-] volumes, and as for the other [-] provinces of the Long Kingdom outside the Southern Province, it is not bad if they can contribute a total of [-] to [-] volumes per volume."

Hearing this, Tang Yin stroked her hair behind her ears, and said seriously on her beautiful fair face.

"As for Youth Journey. To be honest, judging from its explosive performance in "Instant Youth". It will be released in the Southern Province area. It should have an average sales volume of about 25 copies."

The average volume is 25 volumes.
Is it three times my estimate?
Song Lingyun immediately frowned a little. She knew that the estimated sales volume of the booklet Journey of Youth would be higher than hers, but she didn't expect that the publishing company's expectations for this work were three times hers.

But Xia Yan was also lost in thought when he heard the words.

In fact, through Yuan Qing's memory, Xia Yan also basically understood the achievements of the original manga of this work.

During the one or two years when the manga was at the peak of serial popularity, its annual manga sales volume can be ranked in the top 500 in the entire island country, surpassing Twilight Fairy Tail and Reaper, with almost [-] million copies sold.

This data is the total sales of many volumes of comics added together.

After the work is finished, the total sales volume of Journey of Youth's booklet is around 1000 to [-] million copies.

In conversion, the average volume sales volume is about 100 million.

Of course, the themes of novels and comics cannot be generalized. The world is different, and the number and ratio of lovers of two-dimensional works are also different, and the population of Nan Province is only half of that of the island country.

But generally speaking, Xia Yan doesn't think that the two-dimensional cultural atmosphere of the Dragon Country is worse than that of the island countries in the parallel world.

In his opinion, this sales forecast is indeed a bit low. Even if only the expected data of the Southern Province is counted, it is also low. After all, the population of the Southern Province is there, 7000 million, which is quite a lot.

"What's your expression?" Seeing the slumped faces of the two of you, Tang Yin was so angry that she wanted to laugh.

"Don't think that the average volume is tens of thousands, and the grades of 10,000+ are bad. If the novel is long and has more than ten volumes, the total sales volume will exceed several million, and the income will be very considerable. " For most of the novels published in the Red Maple journal, the sales data of single volumes in the Southern Province will not exceed 40 volumes per volume. Even for the headline novels of the journal, the sales volume of single volumes is only counted in the Southern Province area, and the average volume is only [-] million. .And this is the result of these novels being supported by the huge publicity resources of the bookstore."

"If it weren't for Xia Yan's youth journey that clearly surpassed the quality of the works in the periodical "Instant Youth", the bookstore's promotion of the release of your single book would have invested resources according to the level of excellent works in the periodical "Red Maple". The average volume is 25, in fact, this kind of achievement is expected to not appear in a novel serialized in "Instant Youth". "

Both of them understand the truth, but each has its own depression.

Song Lingyun felt depressed by being overwhelmed by Xia Yan again, as for Xia Yan
As for Xia Yan, he truly realized how much the serial platform of the work has an impact on the popularity of the work.

It is gold and it always shines. It is definitely true, but whether gold is in an exhibition or in a pigsty, the number of people who see its light must be very different.

A work in the island country of the parallel world can achieve an average of 200 million volumes, which is considered to be an extremely excellent sales data for a single book.But in the Dragon Country, the population is more than ten times that of the island country. No matter whether it is a novel or a manga, it can be considered a top-notch work if it has an average volume of at least several million, or even tens of millions.

These are the apexes of the real two-dimensional creators of Longguo.Volumes are sold in the millions, or even 1000 million. As long as you create ten or twenty volumes, the total sales of the booklet can easily exceed [-] million, and the creator's royalties will naturally exceed [-] million.

As long as Long Guo is a well-known novel and comic writer in the whole country, basically all of them are tens of millions, or even billionaires.

However, this road is equally competitive and involuntary.

The top works of Hongfeng Literature only sell hundreds of thousands of volumes on average, and it is also because of the limited channels that they are only influential in the southern province.

Putting Journey of Youth in Qingze Bookstore, a top book club in Dragon Country, to issue it, and calculating it based on its achievements in island countries in the parallel world, plus the superimposed effect of the population of Dragon Country, the average volume is more than a few million, so it can barely be counted. A passing grade cannot be said to be excellent, but only qualified.

If you think about it simply, it is the sum of the average sales volume of 40 to [-] volumes sold in each of the [-] provinces of Longguo.But... there is no way, Red Maple Literature is indeed only influential in the Southern Province.

After handing in the manuscript of the novel, Xia Yan and Song Lingyun continued their game duel process.

But after such a period of time, it is impossible for Xia Yan to win against Song Lingyun in every game duel. This guy is a fast learner, and his game fighting skills have improved by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

And the King and Platinum are facing each other, and there will be situations where they make mistakes and get single-killed in dozens of rounds!

So last week Xia Yan finally played against Song Lingyun for the first time. After losing to Song Lingyun due to an operation error, the girl's anger that had been suppressed for several weeks finally came out. , after playing the game for a while, she was still abused, and her skills needed to be strengthened.

"Xia Yan, from now on, are you going to take the novelist as your career and fight for your whole life?"

Suddenly, Song Lingyun, who was sitting next to Xia Yan, focused his eyes on the screen on the game console, but a voice suddenly sounded.

"Huh?" Xia Yan glanced at her slightly.

This guy?Do you still care about these things about me?

"Probably, after all, I can't think of anything. What I do will be more profitable and easier than creating two-dimensional works." Xia Yan thought for a while and said.

"Easy?" Song Lingyun's fingers stiffened upon hearing this.

Oops!

Song Lingyun secretly said something was wrong.

Xia Yan's eyes lit up, and there was a flaw.

A heavy blow, a big pendulum, and a kick from the sky. Five seconds later, the character controlled by Song Lingyun was directly knocked down by Xia Yan.

I won again, lol
A strong sense of satisfaction rose in Xia Yan's heart, and he looked at Song Lingyun proudly.

However, the girl's expression became a little restless.

"Do you find it easy to create your youth journey?" the girl asked.

"Almost. Anyway, I think it's quite easy."

After all, it was adapted from the existing works in memory, and it was the codeword fingers that were tiring. As for the spirit, it was really not too tiring.

Hearing this, Song Lingyun bowed her head and remained silent for a long time without speaking.

Xia Yan felt a little embarrassed.

"What about you? Are you going to work hard to become a professional novelist in the future?" Xia Yan asked in order to ease the embarrassment.

"I don't know." Song Lingyun's expression darkened upon hearing this.

"I don't know how much pressure my family will put on me if they find out that I'm writing a novel, and I don't know whether I will be able to withstand the pressure then."

"However... During the past two months, I also understood a truth." Song Lingyun stared at Xia Yan.

"Even if it is a seemingly ordinary person, perhaps, he will have a talent far beyond others in other fields."

"I don't know whether I will continue to write novels in the future. But one thing, I am very sure"

If one day I really give up on novel writing, I will definitely win you in the novel achievement competition before then, and wash away the shame of Starlight's failure yesterday.

Song Lingyun didn't say the last sentence, after all, the incompetent barking of the loser will only make others despise you even more.

The winner doesn't need to say anything to the loser.

Xia Yan also didn't understand what she was doing halfway through her speech, but she didn't want to understand it either. If she didn't say the second half of the sentence, there was no need to ask.It's just the alumni from the same school who have only met in the past two months. Who knows when I will see her again after the submission of the Youth Journey is completed next week?
Shaking his head, Xia Yan didn't continue talking about these topics.

The following day, March 25, Saturday.

On this day, more than 90.00% of the bookstores in Nan Province quietly put two new light novel single volumes on the shelves.One is called Journey of Youth, and the other is called. Yesterday's Starlight.

In other provinces other than Nan Province, there are also many corners of bookstores that have introduced two novel books.

The booklet of Journey of Youth is on sale and officially begins.

　During the Chinese New Year, it is more difficult to code words than usual, and the update time is late again, sorry.
