Chapter 156: Chapter 138 No One Can Beat Him in This Field (Please Subscribe)

“Are there a lot of opportunities for adaptations of antique novels?”

In his rented room, Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

“Yes, antique novels may not be hot in the online literature community, but they have a large market in the film and television industry,” Youyou replied with a laugh from the other end of the network.

Indeed, the antique theme had its moments of small glory, just like the hacker theme.

However, as the online literature market has shifted towards a ‘fast-paced’ rhythm, the antique theme has also tended to become saturated and ‘generically formulaic’. Moreover, with more and more readers turning to live streaming for appraisal and collecting for themselves, it has become difficult for the online literature community to foster any big IPs in antique novels again.

In the film and television industry, adaptations of antique novels are still relatively popular themes with a wide audience.

Simply put, the audience for antique novels and antique films and TV shows are different groups, so the markets are different too.

“Adapting an antique theme to film or television must be quite difficult,” Lin Chuan said with a smile in response.

Youyou replied, “Yes, on the one hand, the antique theme requires a strong sense of professionalism, and on the other hand, it’s somewhat difficult to boost its performance. It usually takes at least ten thousand subscriptions before it enters the scope for adaptation consideration.”

“As expected,” Lin Chuan laughed dryly.

“Your theme is Antique Forgery, which might yield some interesting effects, so can I have the honor of reading the opening first?” Youyou joked in reply.

Lin Chuan grinned, his thumbs quickly tapping on his phone’s keyboard: “Read in reverence? Youyou, you’re starting to flatter me to death.”

“You’re now an author with an average subscription of twenty thousand, the first place winner in the anti-fraud writing contest, and you have a film and television adaptation. In the eyes of the web writing market, you are a standout, while I’m still a junior editor. What else should I call it other than ‘read in reverence’? Haha.jpg,” Youyou teased.

“Then I shall read it with modest reverence?” Lin Chuan quipped, his face brimming with a smile.

He and Youyou were not merely an ordinary editor and writer, but more like friends supporting each other.

At the time, Lin Chuan was a consistently failing writer, and Youyou was willing to sign him, supporting him several times. Even when “Hacker Kingdom” had just over three hundred subscriptions, Youyou stubbornly went to the chief editor to make a bet to get it into ‘web novels going global’.

Now, Youyou is a junior editor, and Lin Chuan is willing to sign her.

She has supported me several times already. How could I just walk away and pretend I don’t recognize her?

Ah spit, what a scummy author!

Soon, Lin Chuan walked into his room, turned on the computer, organized the beginning of the manuscript, and sent it to Youyou.

Meanwhile,

In Modu.

The sunlight from the sky, like strands of fine golden silk, gently spilled over the glass curtain wall of the Sailing Novel’s office building, sparkling brilliantly, mirrored in the glittering river water, complementing the white clouds in the sky.

Youyou, dressed in a light pink dress with a short knitted cardigan of the same color, sat at her desk, leaning back in her chair, her delicate, peach-like face radiating a bright and radiant smile.

Because Lin Chuan had sent the opening of his new book.
