not really knowledgeable about these stuff ,so can't make any sure guesses, need to think ....
but currently I am hooked on the thriller paradise,
does that count under any of the above categories???
maybe the new author section??
sorry , for my ignorance of Chinese literature...🤔

also Chrissy was this the event that you were referring to,
that kept you busy ?

    I must say that the first place work called sacred ruins is utter trash that so much filler and retarded. I think qidian should ban the author as this trash is so retarded .So many potential authors like the author Bing Lin Shen Xia(冰临神下) who wrote death sutra(死人经) is much much better than these childish retarded popular authors .Qidian should support the authors who are writing carefully not these cheating money criminals .

      TyrantRefined no.good novels only can be discovered by readers.qidian inclined to those retarded authors because chinese teens like them so that bring more money.

          ucoqid I agree to this 100%, for example, Grasping Evil which I am sure most ppl didn't even heard of it's name, is a hidden gem, the author just love his novel, specially after 100-150 chapter the story keep on getting better and better, this guy never write filler chapter, never describes random stuff or anything extra, plus his chapters are ranging from 6k Chinese character to 15k each single chapter, (early on started with 3k but after a while all over 6k ), this author don't care releasing chapters 2k by 2k to pump out many chapter, he sometime release no chap in 1 week then release a 14k chapter. It all depend on his story in that chapter.

          But this all made his awesome work not be popular enough and unknown to many.

          I'm sure there is many more novels like this, authors either have to accept less popularity or have to change their ways and pump a lot of filler or small chapters to make more money :l

              so um...
              how good is the award if you're the only competitor. if you'd like to disagree with my statement, please define what would "china original literature overseas" be consisted of, because that's a little hard to make concrete details of due to the vague phrasing of the term.
              I'm no lawyer, just someone seeking an explanation to clarify and set tangible boundaries.

              please don't hate me because I'm beautiful

                    zen7 unfortunately, i would have to somewhat agree. as someone who's a fan of reading female protagonist stories, i find the stories on qidian to be very one dimensional. the side characters are exceptionally foolish no matter how you look at them, and they seem to always revolve around the female protagonist for no rhyme or reason whatsoever.
                    i say qidian aka webnovel should try to invest and/or look into some other notable series to translate.
                    while browsing through novelupdates, i actually came upon something called The Rebirth of the Malicious Empress of Military Lineage, this story is very exceptional. Qidian should really learn from this translator when picking novels. otherwise, one might lose their international female fanbase.
