I turned out to be top-notch!

Chapter 94 Written by a newcomer?

[Fan Shen held up his eyelids with great difficulty and looked at his fingers to count the meaningful things he had done in his life. As a result, before he could finish counting the five fingers on his right hand that were as thin as chopsticks, he sighed and said, Sadly gave up the job.

The smell of medicine in the ward is always so pungent. The old man in the bed next to him has gone to report to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva two days ago. It will probably be his turn in a few days.

He has some kind of strange disease, myasthenia gravis, the kind of disease that's especially suitable for the hero of a romance novel.

It is said that without medical treatment, you will not be able to move anything on the day you burp, and you will only be able to shed tears...]

Zhou Jixian watched "Celebrating More Than Years" for a while, then put down his phone, took out the freshly cooked dumplings, poured some vinegar and light soy sauce into the bowl, stirred them evenly, and then brought them to the dining table to eat.

While eating, he turned on his phone and continued reading the novel.

I watched it for about 10 minutes, and I basically finished Chapter 1, which is about [-] to [-] words long.

"interesting."

Zhou Jixian put down his cell phone, stood up, went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and then sent a message to Zhou Dingran: "Dingran, the writing style of this novel is mature, and the storyline is also very good. The beginning is about a patient with myasthenia gravis traveling through time." right?"

"Correct."

"Well, the theme of time travel is common in the online novel world, but such novels are actually not suitable for demon fire."

Yaohuo is the literary magazine where Zhou Jixian works.

"Demon Fire" magazine is mainly a magazine that publishes suspense novels, and usually mainly short stories and some serialized novels. It is currently one of the best suspense novel magazines in China.

Of course, suspense is just the main theme of the magazine.

In addition to suspense, "Demon Fire" is also serialized into currently popular romance and fairy novels. Such novels are basically medium-length novels.

If Zhou Jixian had learned that the novel "Celebrating More Than Years" had more than 400 million words, he might have rejected it directly instead of communicating with Zhou Dingran so tactfully.

After all, the novel document sent by Zhou Dingran is only about 20 words in total.

"The subject matter of "Qing Yu Nian" should be a martial arts novel. Although it adds elements of time travel, the readership is relatively narrow, which is inconsistent with Yao Huo's positioning."

Zhou Jixian suggested: "You might as well ask your friend to try his luck at Qidian Novel. Qidian Novel is the largest contemporary novel website. It is all-inclusive and has all types of novels. Besides, the current novel carriers are mainly electronic and physical. It’s becoming more and more declining, so there’s no need to stick to submitting articles to magazines as a way out.”

On the other side, Zhou Dingran never expected that "Celebrating More Than Years", which was a hit in his previous life, would die before finishing the work. This shocked him and asked: "Dad, what do you think of this novel? There was a fire at the starting point. Is it possible?"

"I'm not sure, but the writing is very smooth. If the subsequent storyline is told well, I believe there will be readers."

After hearing this reply, Zhou Dingran scratched his head, feeling for the first time that classic works would not adapt to the local environment.

In fact, he still doesn't believe in evil in his heart. He plans to find time in the next two days to learn about the carrier website of contemporary online literature, and then choose a time to serialize and publish it.

the other side.

After declining the submission from "son's friend", Zhou Jixian lay on the bed in his bedroom, preparing to take a lunch break and go to work.

But for some reason, after reading the crux of the novel just now, he was tossing and turning and unable to sleep.

Qingguo, the knight in the dark night, the man in a wheelchair, the blind man carrying a bamboo basket, the Tianmai practitioner and the infant baby all formed a picture that kept appearing in Zhou Jixian's mind.

Involuntarily, Zhou Jixian picked up his phone, unlocked the phone screen, and opened the novel "Celebrating More Than Years" again.

Starting from Chapter 2, Fan Shen, who traveled through time, changed his name to Fan Xian, and lived in the remote town of Danzhou for four years under the care of a blind boy...

From Fan Xian's childhood to his adolescence, Zhou Jixian watched with gusto all his experiences.Two hours passed without realizing it. When the alarm clock rang, he suddenly realized that it was time to go to work. He immediately got up and drove his car to the magazine office to work.

Along the way, plots from the novel "Celebrating More Than Years" appeared in Zhou Jixian's mind from time to time.

The young patient, because of an unsurprising experience, was reborn in a completely different world and became a disgraceful illegitimate child in the Earl's Mansion of Qing Dynasty in the future.

Along the way, he practiced unknown martial arts, entered the officialdom of Kyoto, and inherited a huge business group...

"A typical cool article." Zhou Jixian smiled.

At the same time, he suddenly understood the meaning of the three words "Qing Yu Nian".

A terminally ill patient had the luxury of having an extra life, so he was named: Qing Yu Nian.

A very country name.

"In terms of appeal, "Celebrating More Than Years" is qualified. At least I, an old bookworm, can read it easily, and I don't even feel the passage of time during the reading process."

Zhou Jixian thought: "Maybe we can try it at Yaohuo."

After this idea came to his mind, Zhou Jixian was a little tempted. After arriving at the company and sitting on the office chair for a while, he walked into the editor-in-chief Hu Rui's office by accident and knocked on the door. .

"Lao Zhou is here? Sit down, what can I do?"

Hu Rui, who was slightly chubby, was waking up with a cup of coffee. When he saw Zhou Jixian, his expression was obviously surprised.

"Mr. Hu, I received a manuscript. It was written by a newcomer. The subject matter is fictional history. I think the plot and writing are very good. Should our magazine try to publish it?" Zhou Jixian explained his purpose.

"Oh? Alternate history?"

Hu Rui was surprised, "The serialization of Wang Shuai's "Intimate Spy" will be finished in a few days. There is currently a vacant spot, but making up history is inconsistent with the selling point and positioning of our agency!"

Zhou Jixian smiled and said: "I felt the same way at first, and I explicitly rejected the other party's submission, but just now, I spent two hours reading this novel. Mr. Hu, I personally think this novel is quite good. Even if it is placed on Qidian Novel Network, I think it will have a certain reader market, and I even think that if Yaohuo publishes this novel, it is very likely to open up the market with this novel."

Hu Rui became curious and asked Zhou Jixian to send the manuscript to his mailbox. After Zhou Jixian left, he sat on the office chair, turned on the computer and started reading.

An afternoon passed.

When he got off work, Hu Ruifang came back from reading. He looked at the reading progress displayed on the screen. He had read 50%, which was about [-] words.

"One afternoon, one hundred thousand words? How long has it been since you read so immersively?"

Hu Rui was a little shocked: "Is this written by a newcomer?"

Especially when he just saw Fan Xian showing off at the Poetry Club. The villain Guo Baokun and others were dumbfounded by his song "Ascend the High", and he felt very happy inside.

"Is the newcomer's writing power so strong?"

"The most important thing is that fictional history can still be written like this!"

"The wind is so strong that the high apes and the apes are coming out, and the boards of Du Fu's coffin can no longer hold it!"

"You won't be copying Li Bai's poems again, right?"

Hu Rui felt a little itchy and looked at the time. It was still early before dark, so he started reading again.
