Reborn, I achieved legendary status with a single book.

Chapter 42: Not a true god until he has 10,000 subscribers!
Zhang Lin seems to have become a different person lately.

I'm not going to internet cafes anymore.

I'm not reading novels anymore.

I became extremely attentive in class.

For several days.

Chen Yang noticed that he always came to class with panda eyes in the morning.

Chen Yang stared in disbelief: "You've made up your mind?"

"Yes, I want to give it my all and see if I can get into a university, even if it's a third-tier one."

"good."

Chen Yang somewhat admired Zhang Lin.

Although he knows.

It's uncertain whether Zhang Lin's effort will have any effect.

They're already in their senior year of high school, and their grades were so bad before.

Even if you try your best, you probably won't improve your score much.

It's not necessarily true that Zhang Lin's decision was the right one.

From a rational point of view...

Chen Yang believes that choosing to go to Shanghai might be a better option.

But, as long as you have that will.

What can't we do in the future?
They were probably inspired by Zhang Lin's fighting spirit.

It was unusual for Peng Qiuhong to bring Zhang Lin a bottle of milk and two eggs in the morning.

Chen Yang looked on with a hint of envy.

But he just smiled and said nothing.

Peng Qiuhong, feeling embarrassed, glared at Chen Yang: "We're all classmates, and this guy looks malnourished lately. It would be a real shame if he collapsed during the college entrance exam."

"Too."

Chen Yang nodded: "Qiu Hong, you're right. By the way, what score did you give Zhang Lin again?"

"20."

"Still 20?"

"A maximum of 10 points, 30 points."

Chen Yang remained silent.

Zhang Lin laughed: "Yes, yes, 30 points is already a lot. I'll try my best to see if I can get 60 points."

Peng Qiuhong said, "60 points? Forget it, I don't think you'll ever get 60 points by graduation."

……

Chen Yang is still the same as before.

The class continued.

The book continues to be written.

However, on this day, the data maniac Xiao Chao pulled Chen Yang into a QQ group called "Cabbage Group".

Chen Yang entered the cabbage group to take a look.

Looking at all the authors' pen names, wow, they're all top-tier authors.

"The newbie is trembling."

Chen Yang popped up in the group chat and said something.

When Chen Yang chimed in, the group chat suddenly became lively.

Is it because he is not good-looking?

"What do you mean by 'unremarkable in appearance'? You're called a 'pretentious king'."

"Brother King of Force, please accept our utmost respect."

Ok.

Chen Beixuan appeared.

This directly earned Chen Yang a new title in the author community: the King of Pretentiousness.

This title sounds pretty impressive.

However, Chen Yang felt a little awkward reading it.

Chen Yang said, "Gentlemen, 'King of Pretending' doesn't sound very good. The main reason is that I'm a man, so I can't be called 'King of Pretending'."

"Pfft..."

Everyone burst into laughter: "Hey, what did I tell you? He's obviously a seasoned pro. Sleeping Master, come out here, your rival is here."

Chen Yang knew about the person known as the "Sleeping God" in his previous life.

Sleeping Goddess is a female author.

Although she is a female author, she writes male-oriented novels on Qidian.

Because her QQ name is "Sleeping" and she often drives, many people jokingly call her the "Queen of Dirty Porn".

really.

As soon as he came out of bed, he blurted out, "I know, I'm not good-looking. But I'd like to know, is it that I'm not good-looking in that area?"

This brought tears to Chen Yang's eyes: "Auntie, please don't do this. I'm still a baby, I'm still a baby."

"Pretending to be a newbie, huh? That's such a lame trick."

"Really, I'm still a minor."

Why don't you just say you're a high school student?

"I really am."

"Gentlemen, you see? We should learn from Brother Bu Yang; we need to be thick-skinned."

Most of the authors in the circle are homebodies.

In reality, they probably rarely speak.

Online, however, people can talk about anything and everything.

Previously, everyone in the group had been talking about Chen Yang's new book.

Now that the main character has arrived, another climax has begun.

"Congratulations, Bu Yang Shen, your new book has surpassed 9000 views!" "Congratulations, you're almost guaranteed a top author contract this year."

"By the way, let's have dinner together at the company's annual party."

The Qidian Annual Meeting is an annual conference for authors.

Basically, only top-performing and renowned authors are invited to participate by Qidian.

However, Chen Yang has not yet received any news about attending the annual meeting.

As for the great god's agreement.

Chen Yang wasn't quite sure.

He has not yet received any notification from the master.

This is certainly not because Chen Yang's performance is insufficient.

mainly.

Chen Yang's book has been serialized for less than half a year and is still not finished.

In general.

Only after this book is finished will I be able to receive a commission from a top author.

However, when asked about being called a god by everyone, Chen Yang said, "Dear big shots, don't be so godlike, I'm just a newbie."

"You're pretending again, aren't you? 9000 subscribers and you call yourself a newbie? What do you want from me?"

"At least, he didn't break 10,000 subscriptions, did he?"

"Ten thousand orders?"

"Yes, without 10,000 subscribers, one is not a true god."

Chen Yang said in the group chat.

As soon as these words came out.

The group chat erupted in excitement once again.

"Not reaching 10,000 subscriptions means you're not a god... This is truly the author who could write about Chen Beixuan. That's a powerful statement."

"That's incredibly domineering. But, without the God of War, how am I supposed to compete with someone who got a contract with a top-tier god with only 5000 subscriptions?"

"Hahaha, quickly take off the 'god's' disguise and go back, go back."

Of course, everyone was just joking.

The criteria for signing up with top players vary from year to year.

The earlier you start, the lower the requirements will be.

Or rather, it's not actually that high.

Before the market opened up.

A few years ago, getting 5000 orders was no less difficult than getting 9000 orders, and it might even have been more difficult.

It's just that times are changing.

……

Qidian Headquarters, Shanghai.

This year has been a particularly difficult one for Qidian.

At the beginning of the year, a powerful competitor emerged and poached Qidian's star player.

Many top-tier players left afterward.

Many industry insiders believe that the starting point is likely to decline.

But miraculously.

It's been almost a year.

Instead of declining, the starting point has risen even higher.

In here.

The biggest reason is that a group of outstanding geniuses emerged.

For example, the divine inspiration that led to the writing of the "Buddha's Manifesto".

Tomato takes it a step further with "A Glimpse of Light".

Chen Dong's "The Tomb of the Gods".

There's also "Back to the Ming Dynasty," which has recently shown signs of becoming a huge hit.

of course.

There's also "I Come from Billions of Light Years," which is based on the story of "Chen Jia Chu Long."

"He who has not reached 10,000 followers is not a true god."

Chen Yang's words also reached the Qidian editorial department.

Editor Gu Yue was also deeply moved by Chen Yang's words.

He didn't expect that.

Chen Yang's imposing presence is not only perfectly portrayed in the book.

In reality, it is just like a tangible entity, displaying its sharpness to the fullest extent.

first timing.

Gu Yue arrived at the editor-in-chief's office.

"Editor-in-chief."

"Gu Yue?"

The editor-in-chief and team leader are acting a bit strange.

Gu Yue composed herself and said, "Editor-in-chief, it's almost the end of the year, shouldn't we recommend a top-tier author for a contract list?"

"Hehe, who do you want to recommend?"

The captain asked with a smile.

Gu Yue really wanted to say.

The captain spoke first, producing a recommendation form: "You don't mean this person, do you?"

Gu Yue took a look.

All I could see on the recommendation form was the phrase "unremarkable appearance".
