A Perfect Life Beginning as a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 80 Anime Adaptation News and New Challenges
Xia Yan listened to the students discussing the topic of "Yuanqing" in the school, and felt very strange in his heart.

But more and more readers fantasize that "Yuanqing" is a girl, a beautiful girl with fair skin, long legs and big breasts.

In fact, Xia Yan was under a lot of pressure.

In the beginning, it was to keep campus life from being disturbed, so the real identity was not revealed.

Now, I dare not announce it.

Because Xia Yan was afraid that those disillusioned fans would make radical moves.

In the evening, Xia Yan was invited to Tang Yin's home to participate in the summit celebration of the "unheard flower name" "Red Maple" hosted by her.

Xia Yan told her about his inner worries by the way.

"What are you afraid of? If fans think Yuanqing is a beautiful girl, then you can completely satisfy their fantasies. I have a lot of cute women's cosplay costumes in my room, nurses, policemen, and magical girls. I'll find two sets later. You change into a woman's dress."

"Based on your appearance, women's clothing can definitely be fake. I will find a bookstore to publish your women's clothing photos tomorrow, so as to satisfy your fans' fantasies."

Tang Yin looked at the gurgling hot pot, and said with a smile while eating happily.

"Stop joking. I'm serious." Xia Yan was embarrassed.

"You don't have to worry about this kind of problem. We have never promoted "Yuanqing" as a beautiful girl writer as a selling point of your work, and it is not to deceive readers. Since it is not a deception, why are you guilty? You are afraid that you will not be able to respond to fans. Looking forward? You should not be a flattering personality. It’s just true that your real identity should not be disclosed for the time being, and the fan base in the province is unstable, which will affect the subsequent sale of unnamed copyrights and the release of booklets.”

Tang Yin poured two small glasses of green plum wine, and handed one to Xia Yan.

"Drinking? I'm only 16 years old, still a child." Xia Yan was taken aback for a moment.

"This alcohol is less than 16% alcohol, what are you afraid of? Besides, Long Guo became an adult at the age of [-], and you are now a successful light novel writer with a seven-figure income. Child? You can really speak." Tang Yin smiled lightly. said, and sipped his glass.

After Xia Yan heard this, she no longer struggled with it. The two of them found it troublesome at the celebration party, and it was as simple as staying at home and eating hot pot. If they didn't even drink alcohol, it really felt too weird.

I also took a sip. The wine was sweet and delicious, but my stomach was very hot after drinking it.

"The book release and copyright sale of the novel you mentioned just now. Can you talk about it in detail?" Xia Yan put down his wine glass and looked at Tang Yin.

"Well, I will ask this question if you don't ask it. In the past few days, several animation production companies that used to have a good relationship with our book club want to cooperate with you to adapt "Unheard Flower Name" into animation. This question Our book club is negotiating with the other party, as a novel author, you don't understand these businesses, and you don't need to worry about them."

Xia Yan nodded upon hearing this.

The contract he signed with the book club clearly stipulates that he owns [-]% of the proceeds from the sale of the copyright of the novel, but the decision on how to cooperate with the work and which companies to develop it is up to Hongfeng.

What Xia Yan only needs to do is, when the time comes, sign the agreement.Of course, the rules are dead, and people are alive. As a novel author, if you want to interfere with the quality and direction of your own work’s adaptation to a certain extent, that’s human nature, and the partner will definitely respect the original author’s opinion.

It's not like in the parallel world, where X gasification horses are all produced. If you want to ask the original author what he thinks of his novel being changed like this, whether it is sad or not, then he must be very sad in his heart.

"Then Tang Yin, can you talk to the book club for me. I have a request for the animation of unheard of flowers. While the book club helps me find a reliable producer, I hope that the animation producer will adapt the ending of the animation work. In terms of the choice of songs, priority will be given to the original songs recommended by me."

"Huh?" Tang Yin was taken aback when she heard the words.

"Original track you recommend?"

Xia Yan thought of the ending song of the original animation of Unheard Hana in the Parallel World, and nodded slightly.

In fact, the popularity of the original animation has a lot to do with the song "All the secret bases you gave me~".

"This can be considered, but let's talk about it when the matter is finalized. The time will be very fast, not more than a month, and the book club will determine the cooperation plan. When the time comes, your needs will be raised with the partner. Let's go." Tang Yin drank another glass of green plum wine.

"Now let's discuss another question, about the release of your booklet. The book club wants to ask if you can write some extra plots about "Unheard Huaming"?"

Unheard of extra plot?

Xia Yan immediately thought of the derivative theatrical animation of Unheard Huaming.

The content of this theatrical version of the animation tells the daily life of other characters after the heroine disappears, and in the main story line, many content supplements from the perspective of the heroine make the whole story more complete.

It is not impossible to create these plots into extra novels.

"I have no problem here." Xia Yan nodded, he probably knew the meaning of Tang Yin's question.

"Well, if you can, create it as soon as possible. The book club wants to release two volumes of the novel together in the near future, when the popularity of unheard flowers is at a high point, and in order to attract those who have already read the novel. Fans of periodicals, add the plot of the extra novel as a supplement to the plot, as a selling point of the booklet, and try your best to let fans of your works have secondary consumption on the booklet.”

"I will cooperate." After all, this is related to his direct income, Xia Yan agreed without hesitation.

"What's more... I don't need to say more, you also understand that based on the achievements of you and Song Lingyun's novels, two of the three "New God Ranking" seed places in our province must belong to you." Tang Yin A little reminder.

"The book club actually attaches great importance to this matter. After all, if the authors trained by our book club perform well in this activity, the value of the book club's reputation and popularity will increase quite a lot. Therefore, although the unknown flower name is over. But Don't relax! Don't be lazy." When Tang Yin said this, her eyes were very serious.

"Dragon Kingdom has seventeen provinces, and countless new novelists emerge every year. But in the end, there are not many people who can stay in the Dragon Kingdom's novel circle for a long time."

The deeds of hurting Zhongyong can be found on any plane.

"You and Song Lingyun are both talented light novel writers. However, the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys. I have never heard that Huaming and Youth Journey are of such high quality, but they can only be popular in the southern province. It's very frustrating, isn't it?"

After Tang Yin's words fell, Xia Yan sighed inwardly.

She was right, Xia Yan did feel a little uncomfortable.

The platform of Hongfeng Literature is really not high from the perspective of the entire Longguo light novel world.

But the rules of the world are like this. If Xia Yan doesn't make a name for himself in the southern province, and directly submits his manuscript to the top book club in the imperial capital of Shanghai, people will throw his manuscript directly into the trash can without even thinking about it.

Regardless of the fact that Longguo has novel authors who became famous at a young age and can serialize their works in top book clubs.

For example, Xia Yan and Song Lingyun once saw the talented novelist Kang Yun at the comic exhibition. Although his works can indeed be serialized in the periodicals of the top bookstore "Qingze Bookstore".

The media kept reporting that he was a talented newcomer unearthed by Qingze Library.

But the media will never report that Kang Yun's father is the editor-in-chief of "Qingze Bookstore".

Creative ability is not enough. Like Kang Yun, he was able to sign a contract to serialize novels in the top journals of "Qingze Bookstore" at the age of fifteen or sixteen. It is the result of his own creative ability and the relationship behind him.

"If you are not satisfied with being confined to the southern province, and want to go further in the light novel world of Longguo, Xia Yan, you must be serious about this "New God's Ascension" event. This is an opportunity for readers of Chinese novels to recognize you." Tang Yinyu said earnestly.

For Xia Yan, a collaborator, she really feels that she enjoys getting along with her. She is neither arrogant nor impetuous, has a gentle personality, and agrees with the three views, and the conversation starts.

As a friend, although she talks too much, she is not afraid that Xia Yan will bother her.

"Come on, drink." Tang Yin helped Xia Yanman up.
