Chapter 136
Lin Yuan also noticed the discussion of book friends on the Internet.
This is also what he expected.
As one of the three wonders of the early Internet novel era by netizens, it is not surprising that "Zhu Xian" has such a hot topic.
It can also be seen in sales.
When "Net King" was serialized, the average sales ranking was about 11 in the entire field of Qinzhou youth fantasy novels!
The sales of "Zhu Xian" in the first month of its release, however, broke into the top ten of youth fantasy books!
It is currently ranked tenth.
Some people may find it strange that the author has written "Zhu Xian" so much, why did it rank tenth?
In fact, this ranking is already very exaggerated.
Because "Zhu Xian" has one of the biggest flaws, that is the number of words!
The previous "Net King" had five volumes.
But the book "Zhu Xian" has only been published in the second volume!
Every volume sold is regarded as a sales volume of a novel.
Others’ long-form works have dozens of volumes of serialized content in the past to help boost sales, but Lin Yuan only has so little content to sell, and of course sales will suffer.
And if the plot of a novel does not collapse...
It is often that the more words the work sells, the higher the sales, because the influence of the work will affect more and more people over time.
In other words.
Those with less content will naturally suffer in the sales competition.
Everyone can imagine, if Naruto or Pirates weren't as long, would these two works still have that much influence?
Give another more obvious example.
You can look at the top ten best sellers of Dianniang.
How many books can rush into the top ten sales in hundreds of thousands of words?
In the absence of recommendations or large rewards, the works that can stably occupy the top ten sales of Dianniang for a long time are basically long stories with millions of words!
Because only with more words, there will be more chapter subscriptions every day.
The same goes for the sales of novels in Qinzhou.
People sell so many volumes of content together, do you rely on one or two volumes to compare with others?
How to compare?
Naturally suffer.
This is also why Yinlan Library wanted to persuade Lin Yuan to write "The King of Nets" long.
If the "Net King" is written long without breaking down, there will be no big problem for this book to make the top ten sales in the future.
Of course.
As long as Chu Kuang does not write Beng, when the volume of "Zhu Xian" increases in the future, the sales ranking of this book will inevitably increase. This is a matter of course.
This time.
Yinlan Library is looking forward to it very much.
When the second volume of "Zhu Xian" was released, Yang Feng asked Chu Kuang for a novel outline plan.
He thought to himself, this time the background of the story is so grand, he wouldn't finish the book early again, right?
However, when Yang Feng saw the outline plan of "Zhu Xian" sent by Lin Yuan, his smile instantly solidified.
"Eight volumes?"
Chu Kuang's "Zhu Xian" planned to write eight volumes?
Yes, that's right, it has really improved, and it has three more volumes than "Net King".
But the problem is...
There are not many eight volumes!
There is still a distance to two million characters!
He was in a hurry, and immediately reported to the editor-in-chief, who then reported to the editor-in-chief.
In the end, the editor-in-chief didn't make any difference, just shook his head and asked Yang Feng to try his best to persuade him.
Yang Feng: "..."
The last time the "Web Text" was too short, Yang Feng was ordered to persuade Chu Kuang to write more, but Chu Kuang didn't pay attention to him at all.
Will it work this time?
He bit his head and called.
Lin Yuan received the call, and when he heard that he wanted to write a long story, he directly refused: "The number of words has been set."
"Ok."
Yang Feng was helpless, he was too humble as an editor.
The editor-in-chief and even the editor-in-chief didn't dare to force Chu Kuang to write longer.
Lin Yuan couldn't help it.
This time it wasn't the system that caused trouble. The original version of "Zhu Xian" was just over 1.5 million words, and the system even helped to make up an extra 100,000 words.
Next time.
Certainly next time.
I hope that the system can conscientiously discover that it is best for myself to serialize 10 million words in the whole long story.
...
But for Lin Yuan.
More books are also good.
Because now, under the pen name of Chu Kuang, two novels are making money together.
It's not that "The King of Nets" won't sell at the end.
There are still new readers who will buy books, but the number of these new readers is definitely not as good as the novel serialization period.
For this part of the division, Yinlan Library will still make payments on time.
Rely on the money.
In addition to the revenue share of those songs under the name of Xianyu, Lin Yuan has already had 20 million more deposits on his bank card!
Twenty million!
The house price of Bluestar is not exaggerated. The price of nearly 20 million is enough for Lin Yuan to choose a very good villa.
Lin Yuan is even considering whether to really buy a villa in Sioux City?
Of course it is difficult for his character to make such a decision, but if it is for his family, Lin Yuan is willing to consider this matter.
After all, both sisters and sisters will be in Sioux City.
Maybe it will develop in Sioux City for a long time.
Not to mention, Lin Yuan still has the idea of taking his mother to Su Cheng, he doesn't want to leave his mother alone in his hometown.
In the future, the mother will be old and without the company of her children, she will inevitably feel lonely.
Besides, Lin Yuan still has his own friends, and they will have a place to stay when they come over. There are so many rooms in the villa that they are not afraid of crowding.
When I was young, my family was crowded and scared.
Mainly now, he has been living in Sister Zhao's house, and the rent has been confiscated. Lin Yuan is also a little embarrassed to bring his family over to live.
Now that I have money, it is better to buy a house earlier and return the current residence to Sister Zhao.
He simply mentioned this idea to his sister.
"Buy a villa?"
Lin Xuan was immediately happy when she heard the words: "It's good to be able to live in a villa. Who doesn't want to live in a villa? The problem is that we can't afford it either."
"Is the villa in Sioux City expensive?"
"The villas in Sioux City are at least ten million yuan, do you think it's expensive?"
Lin Xuan heard her colleague talk about housing prices in Sioux City, and she knew that a high-level person in Yinlan Library lived in a villa worth tens of millions.
Lin Yuan said: "Then let's buy one."
Lin Yuan wanted to finish this matter before leaving Qinzhou.
Lin Xuan opened her mouth.
Do you treat the villa as a Chinese cabbage?
You can buy one if you buy one?
She was silent for a long time before staring at Lin Yuan and said, "Composing, just make money like this?"
Lin Yuan said: "It's okay."
In fact, he still has a manuscript fee from Chu Kuang.
Because of the increase in all levels of the contract, the share has become much higher.
Adding the income of the two vests of Xian Yu and Chu Kuang, it is easy to make more than 10 million a month!
And his income will only get higher and higher in the future.
"You really can afford it?"
Lin Xuan asked in shock.
Soon Lin Xuan remembered that Lin Yuan casually called herself half a million to buy a car...
It seems that this is really possible?
She suddenly felt that her younger brother was the biggest obstacle to her hard work in life!
With such a younger brother, she couldn't even find a reason to fight.
"That's a deal."
Lin Yuan didn't ask her mother's opinion anymore. If her mother had any ideas, she could just push it on her sister.
Lin Xuan was a little confused: "It's settled?"
Lin Yuan nodded: "My sister will ask the company for a leave tomorrow, let's go to the house together."
