The cross-border king of entertainment

Chapter 132 0132, Dismal sales? 【Seek subscription, ask monthly ticket】

By the middle of the month, "Let Go of That Witch" has been updated with more than 30 words.

Yunfeng has been observing the changes in the wind direction in the comment area.

[Zhu Xian Iron Fan 9527]: On the day the book was published, whoever said that writing "Western Magic" was a dead end, come out and lead the fight!

【Jones】: I came here after seeing a recommended post in the online literature circle. The writing is really good.

[Williams]: Seeing the latest chapter, in my mind, it is second only to JK's "The Magical World".

[Brown]: It's quite interesting.

[The Bard]: The "farming article" written in the introduction, I thought it was about farming.

……

It's still acceptable.

Moreover, many foreign readers came.

Yunfeng then opened the writer's assistant and looked at the current data of "Let Go of That Witch".

308301 words.

The number of readers is 1400858.

Added to Bookshelf 500257.

Recommended ticket 3480841.

Reward 1465.

Comments 11361.

However, this data is really a bit stretched.

When the word count of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was over a million.

"Let's wait and see if word-of-mouth can be fermented in overseas markets."

This book is only about 330 million words, and now I have written more than 150 million words. If the grades are really bad, I will try my best to finish it in two months, and then start a new book.

Yunfeng thinks there is still hope.

at the same time.

The submission channel of the National Short Story Contest is officially closed, and the first round of screening has begun. The judging panel will select the best [-] stories and publish them on the official Weibo, allowing readers to vote for the top [-].

In total, more than 3000 short stories were received this year.

Heavy workload.

The judging panel composed of ten famous short story writers, from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, except for eating and drinking, basically sat in front of the computer and read the manuscript.

Yan Jing is a well-known mystery novelist in China. His three short stories, "The Ninth Finger", "Cheating", and "Death Call", have all been adapted into web dramas and movies.

"The bandage monster villa murder?"

Another mystery novel...

I hope it will not be like the previous ones, where the logic is chaotic and there is nothing to watch.

Half of the manuscripts that Yan Jing reviewed yesterday were mystery novels, but the writing was not very good.

As a mystery novelist, he naturally hoped that a mystery novel would be selected.

Of course, he reviewed manuscripts in a fair and impartial manner, and he would not open the back door for mystery novels.

Of the seven short stories selected from him yesterday, none of them were mystery novels.

soon.

Carefully read this "Murder in the Villa of Bandage Monsters".

"This novel is well written."

The reasoning process is very attractive, and the crime method is very clever.

He is very good at creating an atmosphere with words, and has a very strong sense of substitution.

Yan Jing immediately submitted this short story.

Not to mention the first, the top three should not be able to run.

Three days later, the panel of judges screened out 180 short stories.

After another morning of discussion, it was finally determined which one hundred short stories entered the final competition.

The contest party immediately uploaded these one hundred short stories to the official Weibo.

On Blue Star, there are quite a few people who like short stories, and they are all paying attention to the National Short Story Contest.

"There are actually [-] short stories this year, twice as many as the previous one."

"Some have seen it."

"It's okay. Basically, it's a few thousand words, and a hundred articles are equivalent to a hundred chapters of a novel. You can finish it in a while."

"The rules have also changed. In the past, one person could vote for three short stories, but now one person can vote for five short stories."

"I think there are too few votes for the five short stories. In the last session, I didn't vote for several of my favorites."

……

After discussing in the comment section of this microcircle, everyone also started to read the article.

One hundred short stories, some people read them quickly.

Everyone likes different genres. For some texts, you only need to read a thousand or eight hundred words to judge whether you want to continue reading. This is the same as listening to songs. For some songs, listen to a prelude, or listen to a song Two sentences, you will know if it is your favorite song.

But there are also those who have read everything verbatim.

They feel that the votes in their hands determine the fate of these one hundred short stories, so they must be rigorous and not let any excellent work be buried.

Some people have already started to post their reflections.

"I strongly recommend "Rainy Night Sleepless". The writing is very touching. After reading it, my eyes are moist."

"In the end, I was almost confused. I think "Angel's Broken Wings" is written very philosophically, and it deserves a vote."

"The brain hole should be "The Bandage Monster's Villa Murder Incident". This kind of case can be imagined, a bit abnormal."

"Why can't all five votes be for one book? I really like "The New Theory of Three Monks Carrying Water and Drinking"."

""Funny Family" is so funny that my stomach hurts from laughing."

……

Soon, the leaderboard will come out.

No.1 is "Murder in the Bandage Villa", No.2 is "Rainy Night", No.3 is "Funny Family", the number of votes for the top three is not much different.

This ranking is also the best ranking in the rigorous mind. However, the voting will continue until the end of the month. This is just the beginning, and it is not too early to draw a conclusion.

And he became more and more curious.

Who wrote this "Murder at the Bandage Monster's Villa"?
Could it be a few domestic writers who are better at writing mystery novels?

However, from the perspective of writing style, it doesn't look like it.

Also for the sake of fairness and justice, the names of the authors of these short stories were not disclosed before the final results came out, even the jury did not know.

The short story circle is also being discussed.

"You said that No. 1 "The Murder at the Bandage Monster Villa" was written by an accomplished mystery novelist?"

"Precise? Li Si? Mo Wu?"

"It's definitely not rigorous, he is a member of the jury."

"From the perspective of writing style, it looks like it was written by Li Si. All in all, it must be written by an old man, and it cannot be a newcomer."

"Speaking of which, it's only the first day, and you all think that No.1 will be "The Murder in the Villa of the Bandaged Monster"?"

……

The discussion was very heated. Usually, the popularity of the short story circle is not even 50, but now it has directly soared to 12106.

At this moment.

Yunfeng was looking at the system interface with a bright smile on his face.

Since the opening of the voting channel for the National Short Story Contest, the increase in the achievements of the main business [writer] has increased, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

but……

Today's focus is not on this.

Yunfeng turned off the system, changed his clothes, and left the dormitory.

In the bustling magic city, on weekends, the streets are full of people and traffic, and there are bursts of noise in the air.

"Boss, is there any 'Xianqi Comics'?"

"There are Xianqi comics? I haven't heard of them, only DreamWorks comics."

"What about the "Fengyun" comics?"

"Nor have I heard of it."

……

Tang Yu heard Yunfeng's conversation with the owner of the newsstand, and said, "Maybe the goods haven't been distributed to the newsstand, let's go to the bookstore to have a look."

"Youxianqi comics" is the name Zheng Rong gave to the comic studio. At the beginning, he planned to call it a comic monthly newspaper. He thought it was too common, so he solicited a name from within the magazine, and this "Youxianqi" The more it was called, the more fluent it was, and finally the monthly novel was changed, and it was changed to "Novel with Immortal Qi".

Yunfeng and Tang Yu came out together, and had already asked three newsstands, there were novels about fairy qi, but there were no comics about fairy qi.

The two came to the nearest bookstore.

Finally, there are fairy-like comics.

Hurry up and buy two copies.

Yunfeng asked the clerk again: "How is the sales volume of this fairy-like manga?"

The clerk pointed to the comic books in their hands and said, "Our bookstore was opened by you."

really……

Yunfeng had expected it since he entered the bookstore.

Without a single promotional poster, who would have known that this comic was for sale?

However, it shouldn't.

The last time the book of the novel was released, the posters were almost all over the bookstore's bulletin boards.

It is impossible for Zheng Rong to make such a low-level mistake.

Yunfeng planned to go to the next bookstore to see if it was the case, and then called Zheng Rong to ask about it, so he said to Tang Yu: "Let's go, accompany me to find another bookstore."

"Huh?" Tang Yu was fascinated by watching, but didn't hear what he said.

Yunfeng smiled and asked: "How is it, is the painting okay?"

Tang Yu nodded and replied, "It's much, much better than my "The Great Confucian Man" comic."
