A Perfect Life Starting From a Light Novel Writer

Chapter 80 Animation Adaptation News and New Challenges

Xia Yan felt strange in his heart when he listened to the discussions among his classmates on the topic of "Yuanqing" in school.

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

In fact, it put a lot of pressure on Xia Yan.

At first, it was so that campus life would not be disturbed, so I did not reveal my true identity.

Now, I dare not announce it.

Because Xia Yan was afraid that those disillusioned fans would take drastic actions.

In the evening, Xia Yan was invited to Tang Yin's home and participated in the summit celebration party of "Unknown Flower Name" and "Red Maple" hosted by her.

Xia Yan told her his inner worries by the way.

"What are you afraid of? If fans think Yuan Qing is a beautiful girl, then you can completely fulfill their fantasies. There are many cute women's cosplay costumes in my room, including nurses, police officers, and magical girls. I'll find two sets later. You change into women's clothes."

"With your appearance, women's clothing can definitely look real. I will find a book publisher to publish your women's clothing photos tomorrow to satisfy the fantasies of your fans."

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

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

"You don't have to worry about this kind of problem. We have never promoted "Yuan Qing" as a beautiful girl writer as a selling point of your works. It is not to deceive readers. Since it is not deception, what are you feeling guilty about? Are you afraid that you will not be able to respond to your fans? Looking forward to it? You probably don’t have a flattering personality, but it’s true that your true identity should not be disclosed for the time being, because the fan base in the province is unstable, which will affect the subsequent copyright sales and single release of Unheard Flowers.”

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

"Drink? I'm only sixteen years old, still a child." Xia Yan was stunned for a moment.

"This alcohol is less than 30%, what are you afraid of? Besides, Long Guo is an adult at the age of sixteen, and you are now a successful light novel writer with a seven-figure income. Child? You are really good at talking." Tang Yin chuckled. He said, then sipped the wine glass lightly.

After Xia Yan heard this, he no longer struggled. The two of them found it troublesome at the celebration, so they just hunkered down at home and ate hot pot. It would really feel too weird if they didn't even drink.

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

"Can you tell me more about the single-book distribution and copyright sales of the novel you just mentioned?" Xia Yan put down his wine glass and looked at Tang Yin.

"Well, I would have asked this question even if you didn't ask it. In the past few days, several animation production companies that have had good relations with our book club want to cooperate with you to adapt "Unheard Flower Names" into animation. This question Our book club is negotiating with the other party. As a novel author, you don’t understand these businesses and don’t need to take care of them.”

Xia Yan nodded when he heard this.

The contract he signed with the book club clearly stipulates that he owns 80% of the proceeds from the sale of the copyright of the novel, but the decision on how to cooperate with and with which companies to develop the work rests with Hongfeng.

All Xia Yan has to do is sign the deal when the deal is finalized. Of course, rules are dead, people are alive. As a novel author, if you want to interfere with the quality and direction of the adaptation of your work to a certain extent, that is human nature, and the partner will definitely respect the original author's opinion.

It's not like a parallel world where x-qi turns into horses. If you ask the original author how he sees his novel being changed like this, whether it's sad or not, then he must be very sad in his heart.

"Tang Yin, can you help me talk to the book club? I have a request for the animation of Unheard Flower Name. While the book club will help me find a reliable producer, I hope that the animation producer will adapt the ending of the animated work. In terms of song selection, give priority to original songs that I recommend.”

"Huh?" Tang Yin was stunned when he heard this.

“What original track do you recommend?”

Xia Yan thought of the ending theme of the original animation of Unknown Flowers 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 wait until the matter is finalized. The time will be very fast. It will not take more than a month. The book club will determine the cooperation plan. At that time, you will discuss your needs 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 single book. The book club would like to ask if you can also write some extra plots about "Unknown Flower Names"?"

Unknown extra plot?

When Xia Yan heard this, he immediately thought of the spin-off theatrical animation of Unheard Flowers.

The content in this theatrical animation tells the daily life of other characters after the heroine disappears, and in the main story line, there are many supplementary contents from the perspective of the heroine, making the whole story more complete.

It is not impossible to create additional novels about these plots.

"I don't have a problem here." Xia Yan nodded. He probably knew what Tang Yin meant by asking.

"Okay, if you can, create it as soon as possible. The book club wants to take advantage of the popularity of Wuwenhua at its peak to release two single volumes of the novel together in the near future, and in order to attract those who have already read the novel For fans of the journal, add extra stories as a supplement to the plot and use it as a selling point for the stand-alone book, so that fans of your work can consume the stand-alone book a second time. "

"I will cooperate." After all, this is related to his direct income, Xia Yan agreed.

"And I don't need to say more. You yourself understand that based on your and Song Lingjun's novel achievements, two of the three "New God Ascension" seed quotas in our province must be yours." 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 in this activity, the value of the book club's reputation and popularity will be greatly improved. Therefore, although Unheard of Flowers is over... Don't relax! Don't be lazy." Tang Yin's eyes were very serious when she said this.

"Dragon Kingdom has seventeen provinces, and countless new novelists emerge every year. But in the end, not many people can stay in the novel world of Dragon Kingdom for a long time."

The deeds that hurt Zhongyong can be found in every plane.

"You and Song Lingjun are both talented light novel writers. However, the fragrance of wine is also afraid of deep alleys. The quality of Unheard Flower Names and Journey of Youth is so high, but it can only be popular in the Southern Province. In fact, you don't know it in your heart. It’s frustrating, right?”

After Tang Yin finished speaking, Xia Yan sighed inwardly.

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

From the perspective of the entire Dragon Kingdom light novel world, the platform of Red Maple Literature is really not that high.

But the rules of the world are like this. If Xia Yan doesn't make a name for himself in Southern Province and submits his manuscript directly to the top book publishers in the Imperial Capital, people will throw his manuscript into the trash can without even thinking about it.

Don't look at the fact that there are many novel authors in Long Kingdom who have become famous at a young age and can have their works serialized in top book publishers.

For example, Xia Yan and Song Lingjun once met the talented novelist Kang Yun at a comic show. Although his works can indeed be serialized in the journals of the top book club "Qingze Bookstore".

The media also kept reporting that he was the talented newcomer discovered by Qingze Library.

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

Having creative ability is not enough. Like Kang Yun, who was able to sign a serial novel in the top journal "Qingze Bookstore" at the age of fifteen or sixteen. This is the result of the joint operation of his own creative ability and the connections behind him. Both are indispensable.

"If you are not satisfied with being limited to the Southern Province and want to go further in the world of Dragon Kingdom light novels, Xia Yan, you must be serious about this "New God Ascension" event. This is... an event that can make all dragons Chinese novel readers recognize your opportunity," Tang Yin said earnestly.

For Xia Yan, a collaborator, she really felt like getting along with him. He was neither arrogant nor impetuous, had a gentle personality, and had the same views. The conversation was exciting. Xia Yan was as cynical as she was, and he dared to criticize and criticize.

As a friend, although she talks too much, she is not afraid of Xia Yan annoying her.

"Come, let's drink." Tang Yin helped Xia Yanman.
