Online novels often have millions of words, and are serialized at several thousand words a day. It is already good enough if the writing is fluent.
Of course, Lu Qingfeng didn't need to go through so much trouble, as it was originally a plagiarized work.
He did this mainly to fit his character.
Yang Xiuxiu flipped through two exercise books and then said.
"According to what you said, there are still ten chapters left. Adding the words here, it should be less than 100,000 words, right?"
"Yes, about 70,000 words."
"That's the novella."
Yang Xiuxiu thought about it and decided that more than 70,000 words could be serialized for more than half a year, and judging from the story, it was also the most worthy fairy tale about the human body to be adapted.
"Okay, I'll accept the manuscript, but the payment for a long serial isn't as high as for a short story. I'll still try my best to get it for you, though."
Lu Qingfeng didn't react much, and he knew this.
Moreover, this novel does not rely on serialization fees, but on publishing royalties.
The book "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" was written by the British writer Roald Dahl in his previous life.
This children's literature writer created eighteen fairy tales in his lifetime.
The BFG, Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Witches, James and the Giant Peach
Among them, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" is the most famous one, and it is familiar to domestic readers thanks to the movie adaptation of the same name.
In fact, many of the works of this fairy tale master have been adapted into big screens by Hollywood.
For example, the first three of the above works.
The book sales of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" are also very impressive.
Since its publication in 1964, it has sold more than 13 million copies worldwide and ranks fifth among the most popular fairy tales in the UK.
This is the result of years of accumulation. Lu Qingfeng does not seek to achieve this sales volume, but even if he can achieve one tenth of it, it will be enough to solve his current funding problem.
"Oh, I almost forgot, do you still have the original manuscript of your essay for the New Concept Essay Competition?"
After packing up the homework book filled with words, Yang Xiuxiu suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask.
"Here, what's wrong?"
"A senior member of the editorial department is particularly curious about his essay. I'd like to ask you if you could let him see it in advance."
Lu Qingfeng scratched his head.
"That's not good, after all, the Sprout magazine hasn't been officially published yet?"
Yang Xiuxiu thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case, so she said nothing more.
"Then I'll tell him to wait until 'Mengya' is published and let him subscribe himself."
After the matter came to an end, Lu Qingfeng went home to sleep.
……
On April 10th, a new issue of "Children's Literature" was published.
Only Lu Qingfeng and Qiu Ji are left in this issue's premium column.
Three works per person.
Over the past month, since the magazine positioned Qiu Ji, a fairy tale writer born in the 90s, as the main writer of the Rising Star Program, he has received a lot of exposure.
Newspaper interviews, program interviews, live broadcast conversations, support and praise from industry seniors, and even an appearance on a variety show.
His popularity was once comparable to that of celebrities in the entertainment industry.
Key resources have also been invested in the creation of the three stories in the new issue.
Audio reading, painting illustrations, and featured on the homepage.
With such a large-scale publicity and promotion, the sales of "Children's Literature" magazine have seen a significant increase.
……
"What do you think? Anyway, I don't think it's good. It's not as good as the one written by the previous person, let alone compared to Afeng's."
In Class 2 of Grade 3, the foursome got together again.
After school at noon, Liu Xin went to a bookstore outside and bought a book called "Children's Literature".
After reading it, I expressed my opinion.
"It's okay. I don't think it's too bad, but Afeng's writing is really good. This "The Emperor's New Clothes" is so interesting."
Hou Xiaobing's answer was impartial.
Lu Hui couldn't explain it clearly, and Lu Qingfeng just felt a little awkward.
After learning from Yang Xiuxiu that there was a writer competing with him and getting ahead of him, he became very interested in this writer named Qiu Ji.
He even specially looked for this person's previous works to read.
