Chapter 425: Income plummets(1/2)
But even if there are 11,000 thoughts in mind, the cliff-like sales volume is enough to explain everything.
Lu Li couldn't help but look at Xiao Bailian who topped the new book list. Even though the new book list was not on the same list as her bestseller list, she could already see the future.
Looking at this pen name at this moment, Lu Li felt deeply disgusted.
really!
She and Xiao Bailian will never get along.
When the magazine serialized it, the other party insisted on it, making her novel look like a clumsy companion piece.
Now that the online series is being serialized, the other party has to keep up! She just released a new book, and her sales dropped off a cliff...
He endured it again and again, watching the other party publish a new book with only 10,000 words, and wanted to click to read it. However, the mouse arrow was left there for a long time, but he could not press the button.
Finally, she snorted disdainfully and clicked "x".
What’s so interesting? She’s very knowledgeable, and her writing can’t be worse than anyone else’s!
…
However, I repeated these words of encouragement to myself ten thousand times in my heart, but the data in the background still remained unchanged.
Lu Li's face was green and white, and she was staring at the nearly 80,000 words of manuscripts in her manuscript box——
To change or not to change, that is the question.
If we don’t change it, will the data get worse in the future?
According to the current income, let alone 30,000 a month, it would be good to get 10,000. After all, if you lose the first place on the list, you will also lose the bonus.
But if I want to change it, the next 80,000 words of my plot will all revolve around being slapped in the face by the Nobel Prize...
If so, wouldn’t everything be invalidated?
She has to update at least 20,000 words every day to retain these readers. If the manuscript is saved, it will be invalid...
Lu Li couldn't help but her eyes darkened.
…
However, escaping cannot solve any problems.
Lu Li did not hesitate for long.
In fact, it has been more than forty-eight hours since her war-inducing chapter was updated, and it has been more than twenty hours since her new chapter was updated.
Logically speaking, she should update today's new chapter at this time.
But looking at such a cliff-like sales volume, how can new chapters be updated?
But I wrote everything.
Even if you want to change it, you have to make sure to update it...
And readers are probably just paying lip service to it.
A new chapter has been updated. Wouldn’t it be heartbreaking not to read it? It is very likely that they will come back and subscribe tomorrow.
With this idea of luck, she quickly released the chapter. However, in the next hour, the sales volume dropped significantly compared to the past, which was unacceptable.
And the most terrifying thing is that someone has already typed up her chapter on the website forum, causing other authors to be unanimously surprised.
…
One website, eight programmers, and outstanding talents from top universities. To maintain the web page, of course it is impossible to fish in water every day.
The biggest achievement is that the screenshots and pirated copies automatically captured are all garbled.
Although it is basically invalid after 24 hours, it also greatly shows the attitude towards piracy.
But the real meaning is actually of little effect.
Because there are only a handful of automatically crawled web pages at the moment, most post bars rely on screenshots.
And the most important thing is that today's readers are really powerful when they are enthusiastic. They don't think it is piracy. They even love the author and type these articles word by word and publish them in the forum post.
, the discussion below is even more lively than the official comment area.
Not seeking profit, not bothering, just because of love and want to share.
In the process of typing by hand, typos can be corrected and sometimes the typesetting can be sorted out.
It can be considered quite characteristic of the times.
…
And the more enthusiastic the readers are, the bigger the waves will be if the boat capsizes.
Although they didn't spend any money, they actually spoke quite confidently at this moment:
[For this kind of novel, luckily I didn’t spend any money.]
Reputation plummeted.
The entire book's rating dropped from 8.5 to 6.5 and then below 5 in one day.
A large number of readers who watch hand-made games specially come to this website to register an account, spend a lot of money and then rate it. It can be said that they are full of hatred.
After all, Lu Li's novels are not to Ding Wei's liking, but there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's hearts, and some readers like to read such simple, direct and exciting novels.
As the characters struggle, they struggle, and as they entangle, they also become excited as the relationship between the male and female protagonists progresses.
Not all of these readers may have spent money, but their passion for squatting in the forum post bar every day to watch hand-made games is no less than that of genuine readers.
Because this plot was so outrageous, it even went viral and was reposted in major forums, attracting everyone to watch.
The logo of the little flame, followed by one post after another.
Lu Li's novels became completely famous.
And some people who have never read novels but have relatives and friends who read online novels suddenly see this kind of weird plot and can't help but poke them:
[You actually like to read this kind of book...Tsk, tsk, tsk.]
Reality and the Internet are intertwined, and various complex emotions flood into their hearts, making them no longer bothered and even willing to spend money to score low.
…
Wang Qinghe looked at the data converted in the background and didn't know whether to be happy or depressed at the moment.
In one day, there were nearly a thousand new registered readers on the website, which was comparable to the small advertisements he had been running on the website for several days.
This "Dream of Tears and Butterfly Shang" is a talent!
Just looking at this data makes ruthless capitalists happy.
Because half of these newly registered readers chose to recharge for consumption——
Probably because the amount of gift coins was too small to meet the scoring standards for serialized books.
Good guy.
This author has potential and must be well cultivated.
There is also popularity that can be promoted, and traffic can be converted in, which can also drive consumption——
Not bad……
At this moment, Editor Su knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Wang, if I officially join the job, the specific benefits will be..."
Wang Qinghe was stunned.
"Editor Su, your job at the publishing house..."
…
Editor Su smiled, a little embarrassed:
"I'm going to apply for a sick leave or something like that in my work unit, and I'll work here every day from now on."
That is of course very welcome.
Wang Qinghe first stretched out his hand:
"If the copyright editor works full-time, the administrative department has specific salary standards. You can ask directly. I believe our treatment will never let you down."
Editor Su also smiled, his expression full of longing.
"Yes, I also think reading novels on this mobile phone is quite promising."
…
Editor Su has been considering this decision for several months.
At first, Mr. Wang always mentioned it, but he actually didn’t think about it at all.
After all, it is the thinking of the older generation. No matter how good the conditions outside are, how can we have a stable job like his that guarantees harvests despite droughts and floods?
At first, he was not optimistic about this kind of online literature, and felt that it would be more enjoyable to read the book physically.
In fact, it is true that he still feels that reading on his mobile phone is not as comfortable as holding a book.
