A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 46 Discussion
18 million copies
When Tang Yin saw this data, she was also silent for a while.

I knew that the sales volume of the booklet of Journey of Youth would definitely be high, but I didn't expect it to be so high.

In Longguo, normally, the sales volume of a booklet can be calculated from the sales volume of a certain volume in the first week of the booklet, and the gap between the two is three times.

If Xia Yan's Youth Journey can sell 18 single volumes in the first week, there is a high probability that after the first volume of the novel is released on the market for a period of time, the total sales volume will exceed 50 volumes.
What is the concept of a single volume of 50 volumes?That is basically what can only be achieved by the top light novels in the Southern Province.That is the sales data that only the top five bookstores of this level in the southern province have worked hard, all kinds of publicity, resources are tilted, and they are advertised on the Internet and in reality.

Youth trip?To tell you the truth, the resources that the book club gives to it are in favor of it. Compared with the release of top-level light novels in the book club, it is not even one-fifth of the latter, but it can have this kind of sales data.
Outrageous.

If a novel can maintain the average sales volume of 50 volumes, plus light novels can write ten volumes and twenty volumes in a row, then the total sales volume of the single volume in the entire Dragon Kingdom can reach several million, even Ten million sales.

If a light novelist can achieve such a total sales volume, he will not be considered a small role in the entire Longguo light novel world.

It's a pity that this novel will end with only two volumes, otherwise Xia Yan will write ten volumes and twenty volumes like this, and the serialization time will be longer, and the number of fans in Nan Province will accumulate more, which is a real novel. The book takes off, making him a top light novelist in Southern Province.

In contrast, Song Lingyun's Yesterday's Starlight seems to have a sales volume of only [-] copies in the first week of the first volume, but the gap is huge.

But this result is also very strong. In the first week, the sales volume of more than 6 was close to [-]. In the southern province, the sales volume of this light novel is definitely excellent. Many novels serialized in the "Red Maple" journal did not have such results.

Because the topicality of Xingguang's work yesterday was basically hidden under the enthusiasm of everyone's discussion about the journey of youth.

Everyone has overlooked that, in fact, Song Lingyun's novel has accumulated a large number of diehard fans because of its rapid rise in popularity in the later period.

Tang Yin also sighed, if there were no Xia Yan in the same period, then Song Lingyun would definitely be the most popular girl light novel writer in Hongfeng Literature, and definitely the strongest newcomer this year.

Tang Yin continued to observe the detailed data of the two novels.

The sales of Starlight's booklets yesterday were basically all contributed by fans in the Southern Province.

In the 2000 provinces except Nan Province, the total sales volume is only more than [-] copies.After all, the novel’s publicity in other provinces is zero, compared with those well-known light novels in the market that are popular, publicized, and engaged in various sales activities
As long as they are normal readers in other provinces, they will definitely not put away those novels and buy this single-volume novel that has no sense of presence in the corner of the bookstore.

What's really out of the ordinary is the journey of youth.
The total sales volume of its first volume in the Nan Province area was more than 8000 volumes, which is also a very strong sales data.

But the remaining [-] volumes were all sold out of the province.

Seeing this, Tang Yin began to search for well-known light novel forums in other provinces, the official website of the Shushe.
really.

Tang Yin searched casually, and she could see posts on forums outside the province where book fans from other provinces spontaneously recommended novels about Journey of Youth
Spontaneous publicity, forming a fan group, discussing with other light novel fans in the forum, bragging, Amway, arguing, comparing
The sales volume of Journey of Youth in other provinces was fueled by book fans.

This kind of example has also appeared in Longguo before. Some excellent works of small bookstores have no publicity, no traffic, and even the first print of thousands of copies. Sales across the range skyrocketed.

For this to happen, the quality of the novel must be high enough to a certain level.

Most readers are lazy, and they don’t want to post a comment after reading the book. If they want to waste their time recommending a book, it must be of high quality that can truly touch their hearts.

Otherwise, the novels are just good-looking in the general sense, and he is just chasing books normally, and he will never go to work spontaneously.

In the book club, many editors came to congratulate Tang Yin.

"Congratulations, Tang Yin, these two newcomers are amazing!"

"This Yuanqing, is he really a newcomer? It can't be that some powerful and veteran author puts on a vest and comes out to pretend to be a newcomer!"

"It's a pity, why are these two books so short? It will be finished in only thirteen or four chapters? For other light novel authors, they can't squeeze out all the value of these two novels, and write a dozen or twenty volumes before finishing it. With this Popularity, longer writing, earning a few million is not the same as picking up money."

"Indeed, their novels are so short. Not only do they lose millions, but the publisher also loses tens of millions of dollars. Tang Yin's bonus is also affected. This is not a small amount."

"Then the two of you must have the strength to write the novel to ten or twenty volumes and still maintain this popularity. Don't confuse the imagined benefits with the reality."

"Maybe people write books just for their dreams?"

"Hehe. If it's not for money at all, then why do you still contribute to the light novel book club? Just write it and post it on the online forum for free, wouldn't it be better to post it?"

The editorial department was chattering non-stop.

After all, Red Maple Literature has been around for many years, and there has never been a rookie with such explosive grades. Many editors look at Tang Yin with envy and jealousy.

"By the way, Tang Yin, how long is the contract between these two people and our book club? Given the potential of these two people, it would be a bit inappropriate if it was just a three-year short-term contract for an outstanding writer. People didn’t understand anything, and they changed the contract with them and signed a contract with a higher term.”

At this time, someone in the editorial department suddenly expressed this idea cryptically.

"Hey, what about the three-year contract? Our book club didn't sign a long-term contract with those two people. The contract we signed before was only for a single novel, not involving people!"

Next to it, an informed editor immediately pointed it out.

As soon as this sentence came out, the editorial department immediately turned cold.

Everyone has weird expressions, didn't sign a long-term contract?

Then take the two people's current single-book results.
The five major book clubs in Southern Province basically communicated very quickly with each other. These two people have no long-term contract with Hongfeng, isn't that bad?

Only Tang Yin looked at her colleagues with a normal expression and said with a smile.

"Okay, everyone, don't pay too much attention to Yuan Qing and Ning Yun, they are just two newcomers. I will continue to follow up on their follow-up work, and try to let them have a better relationship with our book club in the future. cooperate."

In the evening, Xia Yan was on the subway home after school, when a strange call came from his mobile phone.

Just as Xia Yan answered the phone, a soft female voice came from inside.

"Hello? Is this Mr. Genkiyo? I am the editor of Sakura Bunko."

Xia Yan's hands and feet were quick, and he cut off the phone decisively.

This is the third editor from another bookstore who called to poach him today.

Xia Yan let out a long breath.

He had a great time cooperating with Hongfeng Literature. The book clubs that wanted to poach him had no obvious advantage over Hongfeng Literature. Xia Yan didn't want to run away at all, so naturally he wouldn't waste time with them.

but
It was the first time he felt this kind of feeling of being valued by others.
Moreover, as soon as Xia Yan returned home, he saw the figure of "Lauro" placed on the container by himself, a gift from Tang Yin.

He has no sense of belonging to Hongfeng Literature. Hongfeng Literature serializes his works, and his works also help Hongfeng Literature earn profits. Neither party owes the other.

However, in the process of cooperation, it is not entirely a straightforward interest relationship. Whether it is the people or things that come into contact with, there are other things besides interests.

At least, Xia Yan would care a little bit about Tang Yin's opinion of him, he didn't want to be impersonal in Tang Yin's eyes, and he would run away when he became famous.

Running away is definitely not going to run.

And I also have to think about the serialization of the new work in the middle and late May.

　I went out to eat with my friends today, and I came back very late, so this is the update for the time being.The rest of the update will be later, or if you can’t handle it anymore, go to bed first, and make up for it when you get up tomorrow.
