Chapter 48 Bedtime Readings

In the next few days, "The Ugly" will be officially launched.

Those who have been waiting for a long time say "Dogs don't buy it", but they place orders faster than anyone else.

The sales of "The Ugly" are surprisingly good. This is inseparable from Shen Lingwei's continuous maintenance of popularity, and the sales and promotional resources of Hanren Entertainment, which made "The Ugly" enter the top ten new song charts of major music platforms on the day it was launched. Location.

Li Xiaobai didn't pay too much attention to the following things, and now all his attention is on the upcoming "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

Master Culture announced in mid-September the list of new manuscripts that have been recommended by the publishing house to participate in the Autumn New Talent Competition. Li Xiaobai also received a text message from An Lan.

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was recommended by the publishing house as the second level.

Although the exposure is not as strong as the first-level recommendation, it is better than nothing.

Moreover, before the official release, the publishing house mailed Li Xiaobai a printed volume of the first volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", which is the part to be released this time.

I received the physical book from the publishing house on September 19th, and the official release time is September 20th, and the deadline for the autumn competition is before October [-]st.

A total of ten days.

"The novel will be published tomorrow, and you can read it tomorrow at the bookstore that cooperates with the publishing house."

An Lan still didn't forget to give Li Xiaobai a shot: "However, "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is No.1 after all, and it's still a brand-new theme without a reader base. The sales may not be particularly impressive at the beginning, but don't worry, me and the president The editors are very optimistic about "Ghost Blowing the Lantern"."

Li Xiaobai said: "Okay."

After finishing the communication, An Lan put away her phone and returned to work.

At this moment, the editors in the editorial department are quietly whispering to each other, discussing the situation of the entries for this autumn newcomer competition.

"I don't know how this year's autumn newcomer competition is going to be. I hope our editorial department can win a rookie king."

"The rookie king is a bit difficult. In recent years, urban themes have been difficult to mix. These two years have been dominated by fantasy novels. I heard that the second editorial department has a very strong fantasy novel this year. I don't know if it is true or not. Then The sides are tightly covered."

"I know, it was written by an old author who opened a new account. That old author wrote Ba Zong Wen. Seeing that the fantasy market is so hot, he wanted to open a new account to test the water, but what he wrote this time The novel is really interesting, the quality of writing is online, and the title of the book seems to be "Master Genius."

"Northern Media is also very strong this year, and has several high-quality martial arts novels."

"Don't ignore Linglong Publishing House, the consumption power of female readers is terrifying,"

"."

Everyone discussed very intensely.

Some people are optimistic about the fantasy novel by the second editorial department, and some people think that the women's novels of Linglong Publishing House are more competitive, but no one believes that their third editorial department can win the newcomer king.

The third editorial department is the editorial department with the least number of master-level authors in Confucius Culture, and the number of blockbusters has gradually decreased in the past two years, and the gap with the first two editorial departments is getting wider and wider.

The titles of manuscripts recommended by each publishing house are also published on the official websites of each publishing house, which is also a publicity channel.

Among them, the five leading publishing houses received the most attention.

It is no surprise that Linglong Publishing House is full of women's novels, and Hanhai Literature has a fantasy novel, and the others are all historical novels.

Jiuxing, the master and the three northern families are all fantasy writing except for their own themes.

The loyal readers of each publishing house flocked to the official website of the publishing house immediately to browse the new books that have been recommended by the publishing house.

After browsing through it, many people's eyes stopped on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

The first time I saw the title of the book, I thought it was a horror novel, and I still admire the courage of the author of this book, who dared to use "ghost" in the title of the book.

Don't you know that ghosts are not allowed in the country?
But when they saw the introduction of this book, they were stunned.

The originator of Tomb Raiders.

Tomb Raider?
What the hell, digging a grave with a shovel?

Do you know if this thing breaks the law?

And the recommended slogan for this book by Master Culture is: "A book to read alone at night."

Many people left messages on the official website to inquire about this, don't take the entire publishing house into it just because of one book.

But these people are also looking forward to "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

Kyoto.

After dinner, Li Xiaobai took out the physical book sent by the publishing house to Shen Lingwei, and said, "This is a book I wrote, an orphaned edition sent by the publishing house."

"When did you write a book? Why didn't I know!" Shen Lingwei believed that Li Xiaobai could write a book.

Li Xiaobai himself is studying for a master's degree in literature, so it's normal to be able to write books!

It's not normal for a songwriter to write a book so well.

"Just a few days ago, it wasn't that I was at home and had nothing to do, and I was just idle, so I just wrote casually."

Li Xiaobai suggested: "If you can't sleep at night, you can take a look, you should relax."

Shen Lingwei nodded, and then said: "Do you need me to post a Weibo, publicity or something?"

"no, I'm fine."

Li Xiaobai shook his head and refused: "I'm just writing nonsense, I will write it later, let's promote it."

After giving the book to Shen Lingwei, Li Xiaobai went back to his room and continued begging for food.

Li Xiaobai didn't intend to hide the matter of writing a book from Shen Lingwei from the beginning. After "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", the originator of tomb robbers in the previous life, became popular in this world, Li Xiaobai planned to put it on the screen!

Adapting a novel into a TV series might require the support of the benefactor's wife.

On the other hand, this "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" is an enhanced version that has undergone a systematic transformation. It is definitely not bluffing in terms of horror. He wrote it seriously during the day. After Shen Lingwei read it at night, would he still dare to sleep alone? ?
This sense of security will not come.

the other side.

After Shen Lingwei returned to the bedroom on the third floor, she picked up "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and started to read it.

Through a book, you can understand a person.

She also wants to get to know Li Xiaobai through this book "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp".

But after reading a few pages, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

At first, Shen Lingwei resisted when she saw the title of the book. After she read the introduction of the book, she learned that it was a book about tomb robbers, so she decided to read it before going to bed.

"The story of the tomb robbery, how did it get such a name?"

But looking at it, Shen Lingwei found that it was not the case!In the story of someone's tomb robbery, the paper doll will come back to life, and it will eat people's hearts.

This is definitely not a serious tomb robbery novel!
After closing the book, Shen Lingwei couldn't calm down for a long time.

It always feels like there is something in the room.

"What is Xiaobai writing about? Why is it so scary?"

Let me read it before going to bed, who can fall asleep after watching this, who listens to ghost stories as bedtime stories!

Are you sick?

Then Shen Lingwei took pictures of the first few dozen pages with her mobile phone and sent them to her manager Li Jie.

"Sister Li, let me show you something good."

After sending, Shen Lingwei turned the phone to silent, and then went to sleep with the lights on. .
