In late July, Sun Peng was as busy as an office worker.
The structural renovation of the old house is about to be completed. Sun Peng has to go around almost every day, carefully measuring every inch of land in the house, and then thinking carefully about what he is dissatisfied with. When he decided to renovate, he only had so much money on hand.
Money, so the budget is tight. Now that the third royalty payment is about to arrive, naturally I have to take advantage of this time to spend money quickly!
Once completed, the water and electricity project will begin, and it will be difficult to change it by then.
He promised Zheng Jia to work hard on the complete version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Sun Peng had to spend at least half a day typing every day. A novel worth over one million yuan would take one month to complete, which means he would have to write at least 30,000 to 40,000 words every day. For
It's not an easy job for Sun Peng - even if he just moves it without thinking, it will still take a few hours, right?
In addition, there is the script for the third season of Crazy Madam. Lin Lin has to go to his room almost every day to rush it, and she can't leave it behind. Even the new script prepared for her cousin after the completion is still early, but Sun Peng has to write it from time to time.
Think about it...
With so many things going on every day, Sun Peng had no time to care about the results of his new book Shendiao.
Of course, he doesn't have to worry about anything. After all, for a novel whose collection exceeded 400,000 yuan within half a month of its publication, far exceeding the editor's expectations, do you still have to worry about its poor performance? Of course, Sun Peng will never
will be satisfied. In his opinion, there is already a book of Shooting Condor and a book of Swordsman in front of him. In this world where the Internet is more developed, the collection of Divine Condor has only reached more than 400,000 in half a month. This is simply for the people on earth.
It's embarrassing...
"It seems that the post I read in my previous life actually made sense."
On the day when the collection of sacred sculptures exceeded 500,000, Sun Peng couldn't help but let out a long sigh when he received a call from editor Han Feng.
If Jin Da Da's novel is delayed for fifty years, will it still be so popular?
In a previous life, Sun Peng read a post on the Internet that discussed this very issue. Most of the participants’ views were somewhat unexpected, believing that it was unlikely that these influential martial arts novels would achieve their current status. Some even thought that Legend of the Condor Heroes
There is no doubt that we will be popular in the online literary world!
The writing style, plot, and length are not suitable for that era.
And don’t forget, how many books were published in a year when martial arts novels were at their peak? How many books will be published in a year after entering the 21st century? People have more choices and there are too many good books. It’s just like the 1980s
Desire and The Condor can make the crowds sell out, but there are several points in the ratings of a 2017 drama that are like boasting.
This world is also in an era of highly developed Internet, culture, and entertainment, so even if the Shooting Condor, Swordsman, and the Divine Condor are still classics, if you want to gain status on the earth in this place with countless temptations, Sun Peng
It seems that that will never be possible. Instead, there are new domestic novels such as Ghost Blowing the Lamp, and foreign novels such as The Little Wizard and The Da Vinci Code. Because they belong to this era, they may be more popular than martial arts novels.
…
If he knew what Sun Peng was thinking, Han Feng would definitely curse with a dark face!
Of course, I can only scold him behind his back.
500,000 collected in less than a month, what else are you dissatisfied with? This result is also top-notch on the Shuxiang Chinese website, okay? Apart from those top masters, who else can be as awesome as you?
But in Han Feng’s eyes, The Legend of the Condor Heroes is truly wonderful!
Since the first chapter of The Legend of the Condor Heroes was uploaded on July 1st, it has already reached more than 100,000 words. At the beginning, it was the same as Jin Dada’s other novels, which were mediocre and not very attractive, especially the supporting characters.
How many people are interested in the emotional entanglement? But because of the appearance of middle-aged Guo Jing and Huang Rong, the old fans are looking forward to it, and the animated short film that is quite popular on the website has also attracted many new fans.
But the tens of thousands of words that followed made the book Shendiao’s appeal instantly increase!
Guo Jing led Yang Guo to fight against the Quanzhen Cult, breaking into Beidou first and retreating against powerful enemies. After tens of thousands of words, it was very exciting to watch, and it seemed that he had regained the feeling he had when watching The Condor; and then Xiao Longnu, Ouyang
The emergence of Feng and the Chongyang Carving pushed the whole book to the second stage - everyone consciously put themselves into Yang Guo and began to fantasize.
Beauty, grandpa, secrets, all at once!
Especially the Little Dragon Girl written by Jin Dada, she is simply the goddess in the hearts of thousands of otakus. She caused a sensation among readers when she first appeared. More than 4,000 posts appeared in the book review area in one night. Even the previous readers
The complaints and dissatisfaction with Huang Rong's image also disappeared instantly.
Still familiar words, still familiar taste.
So when the collection of The Legend of the Condor Heroes exceeded 500,000, Han Feng immediately called Sun Peng: "Bai Da, it's almost the end of the month, and there will be another batch of books to be put on the shelves on August 1st.
How have you considered this matter? Today is the last day of arrangements, we must make a list of new books to be promoted next week."
"Well..."
Hearing this, Sun Peng frowned and became confused again.
He has been thinking about this issue for a long time.
About 5,000 words a day, 150,000 to 60,000 words a month. Although it is a little less, with the current collection number of Shendiao and the ratio of recommendation votes, it is really not a big deal to put it on the shelves. Han Feng mentioned this before
At the time of the incident, Sun Peng originally thought it was okay. After all, if you sell it in the morning, you might earn hundreds of thousands more in a month, so why not?
but……
When Sun Peng finished Chapter 7 that day in order to exchange information with Zheng Jia, he became entangled again.
The Dragon Knight is out!
Shou Gong Sha Mu is here!
And what’s more, the Dragon Knight plot is stuck at 150,000 to 60,000 words, which means that if it is released on August 1st, it will be right after the Dragon Knight plot!
Damn it, this is going to be a big death!
In fact, it's not that Sun Peng has never thought about revising this paragraph and removing the plot of the dragon knight, but when he looks back and thinks about the suffering he suffered back then, he feels that the book fans in this world should also go through some hardships - why do you think so?
Can you escape this disaster? Why can you see it all comfortably?
Of course, more importantly, what if you change the subsequent plot of this paragraph?
Changed together?
Gee, are you planning to let a medical student destroy the divine sculpture?
This is what Sun Peng is struggling with. He still remembers the feeling of sadness flowing against the river when he saw the sacred sculpture for the first time. He believes that in this highly similar world, Chinese people will not suddenly change.
He is so generous that he can even deal with things like pig's feet turning green, and if it is released after this episode...
However, Sun Peng really wants to give it a try!
Will readers continue to subscribe after watching the Dragon Knight plot? How many average subscriptions will there be after the cuckold plot appears? Will it be lower than expected? Wait for the exciting follow-up to continue, and ** will appear one after another.
When the time comes, will those lost readers come back?
Ahhhhhhh, I really want to know!
Unable to suppress the throbbing in his heart, Sun Peng asked: "Han Da, can you estimate my royalties for July now?"
"Well……"
Han Feng was slightly startled by the inconsistent answer, and then he pondered for a moment and then smiled: "It's hard to say now, but the finale of Swordsman is quite powerful, and the popularity of the new book also boosted the sales of the old book. If not
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be nearly one million! Of course, if you perform better these days, it wouldn’t be surprising if it exceeds one million. Congratulations, Bai Da. In that case, you will be our website’s twenty-second monthly contribution fee.
There are over a million authors!”
As an online article editor, Han Feng has been looking forward to this day for a long time!
"Okay, then let's put it on the shelves on August 1st!"
Sun Peng, who couldn't wait to commit suicide, immediately said without hesitation when he heard this number.
Not only are the royalties from the website so high, but the sales of the physical books of Shooting Condor have not declined, but are rising day by day under the influence of excellent word-of-mouth. They have climbed to the 17th place in the Guhu.com rankings, and the third batch of 100,000 copies
The additional printing is obviously conservative. Zheng Ye estimates that additional printing will be done in August at the latest; Swordsman is also published in August, and the initial printing is 200,000 copies. This is all money!
With so much royalties and royalties, what else is Sun Peng afraid of?
and……
"Tsk, tsk, I still don't believe it!"
After hanging up the phone, Sun Peng chewed his teeth and lay on the sofa: "The Condor on Earth is also a cuckold, and it is also a classic. The TV series alone has been adapted so many times, and aren't there so many people watching it every time?
Hehe, let’s see how people in this world react..."
