If he had a choice, Shen Jiarui definitely didn't want to fight with Chu Kuang, who was a tough guy who could even tie with Feng Hua!
Chu Kuang ranked fourteenth
If Chu Kuang hadn't had so little experience, it would have been possible for him to rank in the top ten!
Just look at the list and you will know.
Among the short story writers ranking list, which one of those who ranked ahead of Chu Kuang has not been writing short stories for many years
Chu Kuang’s disadvantage is that he has only been in the industry for a short time, so he has not produced many works.
As one of the writers on the list, Shen Jiarui is very clear about this.
So, he was very depressed.
Because if it weren't for Chu Kuang, he would have taken first place in March.
"Don't panic... there is still hope..."
Taking a deep breath, Shen Jiarui began to comfort himself.
Well, firstly, the quality of my work this time is top-notch, and secondly, what if Chu Kuang performs poorly this time
Thinking of this, Shen Jiarui felt that he was fine again.
And the more he thought about it, the more he felt there was nothing wrong with it!
Take a chance and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!
Just like what was discussed in the group.
If I, a writer ranked in the top 20, beat Chu Kuang who is ranked 14th, wouldn’t my ranking go up again
Ranking equals worth!
Once your ranking goes up, you can discuss with the platform to increase your remuneration!
This is more profitable than just getting first place on a platform in a month!
"More polishing..."
After Shen Jiarui came up with the idea, he began to take out a new short story that he had revised many times, looking for more room for adjustment.
While Shen Jiarui was working, Lin Yuan was also busy writing a new short story.
The name of the new short story is "A Bowl of Clear Soup Soup Noodles".
Lin Yuan's hand speed can quickly complete the draft: For noodle shops, the busiest time is the New Year's Eve. Beihai Noodle Shop has been busy since early in the day...
Different from the previous novels.
The author of this novel is Japanese.
Neon has many classic literary works that have caused great repercussions around the world, including this story about a bowl of clear soup soba noodles -
It follows the same touching path as "The Necklace".
This is also the route that many short stories take.
However, because many short stories follow this route, there has been a backlash from readers.
Just like the chicken soup articles that were popular a few years ago, later because everyone drank too much chicken soup, anti-chicken soup articles became popular.
The current market also has this trend.
But this is only because many writers' stories are touching just for the sake of being touching, which makes readers tired of them.
Everyone still loves to drink real chicken soup.
Especially this short story "A Bowl of Clear Soup Soup Noodles", which also contains some business philosophy, is a short story that many companies will promote.
In terms of influence on the business world, this bowl of clear soup soba is very impressive.
Lin Yuan also wrote it very easily...
Because this novel does not require many background changes, unlike the Western background in "The Necklace", many things cannot be used directly.
As a Japanese work, it also has the characteristics of Eastern culture, so Lin Yuan was able to complete this work without making any changes.
Of course, necessary modifications are still necessary.
This is the blue planet after all, there is no neon here.
Even though the culture of Chu Province is very similar to the neon on Earth, Lin Yuan knows clearly that it is not neon.
Just some things are similar.
…
It didn't take Lin Yuan long to finish "A Bowl of Clear Soup Soba Noodles" and handed it to Kaneki.
Kaneki is now his spokesperson and will pass his novels to the tribe.
After finishing this matter, Lin Yuan began to think about his next novel.
Although he is not in a hurry to release a new feature, he plans to finalize the story now.
And before customizing the system.
Lin Yuan and Jin Mu chatted for a while: "What type of novel is more profitable to write now?"
"make money?"
Jin Muzhen treated this as a small talk: "If you write well, you will make money..."
Lin Yuan said: "I mean the long one."
Kaneki realized something: "Are you trying to decide on the genre of the new novel?"
Lin Yuan said: "About the same."
This is the nature of work communication.
The Chu Kuang alias is managed by Jin Mu.
He pondered, "The format has changed a lot. In the past, the most popular novels were all adventure stories about other worlds. Now there are many more. Because of mergers, the market classification is not as clear as before. Basically, it is a state of letting a hundred flowers bloom. As long as you don't choose a particularly niche one..."
Speaking of this.
Kaneki corrected himself and said, "It doesn't matter if it's niche, if the boss wants to write about it."
There is a reason why Kaneki changed his words.
Who doesn't know that Chu Kuang is a niche maniac
He just likes to write some works that are rare in the market, like a pioneer, ranging from sports and competitive novels to immortal cultivation novels to tomb-robbing novels.
Types and the like seemed to be meaningless to Chu Kuang.
Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, thinking about the nature of the system, and felt that he should not think too much about the type of problem.
Anyway, the works provided by the system, even if they are niche, are niche works that can become popular.
"Actually, I think..."
Jin Mu suggested: "If it is a work like "Ghost Blowing the Light" that can be divided into eight parts, and each part can be published independently, then we don't need to pursue the attribute of serialization every month, we can just release one part every once in a while."
"I'll release one every once in a while..."
Lin Yuan thought about it for a while and felt that this was a good idea.
As he became busier and busier, the serialization that could take a year at a time was indeed a bit exhausting, and it would be better to publish one work at a time.
For example, the eight stories in "Ghost Blows Out the Light".
Each story can be regarded as a medium-length novel.
Lin Yuan said: "If so, what type do you think is most suitable?"
"Of course it's reasoning!"
Jin Mu answered without hesitation: "It's just that the mystery atmosphere in our Great Qin is a little lacking, but with the incorporation of Qi and Chu, mystery novels are now the biggest trend in the market!"
"Reasoning..."
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows.
Even though he doesn't pay much attention to the novel market, he can feel the increasingly strong atmosphere of mystery, and it seems that more and more people like to read mystery novels.
“I just talk about the market.”
Jin Mu subconsciously thought that Lin Yuan would not write mystery novels. After all, there were basically no mystery elements in all the works under Chu Kuang's name.
And mystery novels are famous for their high technical content.
If the reasoning case is not well designed, readers are unlikely to buy it.
So, you could say…
Readers of mystery novels are the most picky group of readers on Blue Star. They are very picky and will magnify even the smallest loophole.
Writing this kind of novel requires careful logic, strong thinking ability, and a perfect crime layout.
This is a subject that cannot be handled by bizarre fantasy.
However, Jinmu didn't know that Lin Yuan had already had the idea of writing a mystery novel in his heart.
After writing about niche topics for so long, it’s time to try a mainstream topic, right
Judging from the popularity of mystery on Blue Star, this type of novel is indeed a mainstream genre that is no less popular than adventures in other worlds!
