Auctioning a novel usually referred to adapting a novel into a movie, television series, game, or other form of media work and auctioning it through an online platform. During the auction, participants can bid by auction. The highest bidder can obtain the ownership of the auction item. The advantage of auctioning a novel was that it could allow many people to participate in the production and distribution of the work, increasing the exposure and popularity of the work. In addition, the auction could make the price of the work more transparent and avoid the situation of high prices and low sales. However, there were some risks and challenges in auctioning novels. For example, if the quality of the work could not be guaranteed, there might be problems such as plagiarism and copyright infringement. Secondly, there might be competition and unfairness between the participants because the works were auctioned in public. Therefore, when auctioning novels, some measures needed to be taken to ensure the quality, legitimacy, and fairness of the works.
