About this violent update week. I hope everyone will come in and take a look
First a few points:
There are many books on the website with over one million VIPs. According to Baogengzhou's regulations, they need to add thousands of chapters, but these books have never been done.
This is the so-called lack of update.
I have never owed an update. Even if 1,000 votes for 1 update required me to add 150 updates, I gritted my teeth and added it.
Most of those who voted for me are still voting now.
Among them, the one that everyone is most familiar with is Jiang Nanlong. From 500 votes to 5,000 votes, he supported me all the way.
He has never told me that your demands are too much and should be lowered. I think that among all the people, he should be the one with the most say. He has invested a total of 300,000+ VIP votes for me, including this time.
, he was second in the event voting.
The purpose of my weekly activities is always to support those who have money and those who have no money.
If you think you want to play, just add some money and join us to play together.
5000 votes per update, is it expensive?
Let's do the math.
The total collection of my book on the website exceeds 150,000.
In other words, as long as each person reading the book spends 10 cents and casts one vote, that is 150,000 votes.
I just need to add 30 updates.
If each person spends one yuan, then I need to add 300 more.
Of course, you can say that you don't have the financial means.
Then, you stand aside and watch. When the votes are enough, I will add more chapters. You read the chapters that will be updated. You will enjoy reading it and I will be more motivated.
Writing books is a profession, and writers have to make money to support their families by writing books.
So someone came up with such a logic.
Your popularity is all given to you by us. Now that you are famous, you have set the standard high. You are greedy for money and you have forgotten your roots.
For this statement, I will only give a simple example.
When Wang Feng first debuted, he earned more than 3,000 yuan for a commercial performance.
Now the price of a commercial performance by Wang Feng has reached 200,000.
Is his popularity given by the audience?
yes!
Then why doesn't he continue to earn 3,000 yuan for commercial performances?
In this way, his business performances can be performed twenty-four hours a day without interruption! What a great boost to his popularity!
He has raised the price of his commercial performances so high, and the price of tickets for the audience to watch the performance has also increased accordingly. Has he forgotten his roots and is he greedy for money?
Should everyone boycott him?
I used to trade my body for money and write day and night. I could write more than 300,000 words a month.
Now it's stable, I can write up to 200,000 a month.
After deducting the 180,000 yuan guaranteed for renewal, I can only save 20,000 yuan of manuscripts every month.
I participated in the update week on the 22nd, and updated six more chapters on the 21st.
Have you ever seen any gold seller who sells gold at a cheaper price today knowing that the price of gold will rise tomorrow?
It’s not that I ask for too much, it’s that people’s hearts are not easily satisfied.
No one saw the update I posted the day before the update week, and no one said good things about me. Everyone only saw that I needed 5,000 votes, which is 500 yuan, to post one more chapter.
In fact, everyone hopes that a pound of gold only costs one yuan, an Apple 5s only costs ten yuan, and a house costs only twenty yuan per square meter. This is all beneficial to them, so everyone hopes for this.
However, when you have such hopes, have you considered the feelings of the people selling gold, selling mobile phones, and selling houses?
Do you think this is worthy of the fruits of other people's labor?
Of course, you can say righteously that you are all greedy for money.
Yes, who is not greedy for money?
Celebrities work so hard to gain fame, and after fame comes profit.
What is the purpose of a shop owner who works from dawn to dusk to sell things? To serve the public?
Anyone can be righteous on the Internet.
But, ask yourself, why are you working so hard?
Of course, there is no shortage of people with great love in society. I respect and admire such people.
A small update week activity aimed at giving those who are willing to support me an opportunity to work together.
If you are happy to vote, that is your business. If the number of votes is enough, I will add more.
If you don't want to vote, that's your business, because even if you don't vote and someone else does, you'll still see it the same way.
No one is holding you at gunpoint and saying, if you don’t vote, you can’t read.
I also never said that if the number of votes is not enough, I will guarantee that I will not update it at all.
Three updates a day, and I never fall behind.
Whether to add more updates or not depends on everyone's preference.
If you think a bag of apples on the roadside costs 5 yuan, you don't have to buy them, but you can't call those who are willing to spend money to buy apples and then give them to you to eat stupid, right?
Is it a shame to do this?
There is a stall selling meat pies near my home. It has been selling meat pies since I was born. It is our most famous one.
Every time the meat pies start to be sold, there are always many people waiting there.
In the early days, a meatloaf cost 50 cents.
A meatloaf costs two dollars now.
Let’s put it this way, you started your meat pie stall by us. Now you charge us two yuan for a meat pie. The price has increased so much. Have you forgotten your original dream?
The owner of the meat pie stall said, haha.
All said and done, many people actually think it’s not worth it.
Does it all depend on your own subjective will whether something is worthwhile or not?
Do you think it's worth buying a pack of 8 yuan cigarettes to smoke, but it's not worth spending one yuan to read a book, because there are countless pirated books on the Internet. Why do you have to spend money on things that obviously don't cost money?
Yes, you don’t have to spend money, and no one is forcing you to spend money, but please be kind to those who are willing to spend money, because they are the ones who support us writers. Without them, all the people in the world would be dead.
Writers will starve to death. By then, you won’t be able to read novels.
A violent update week, a violent update week, I didn't expect that a violent update week could cause so much trouble.
Forget it, I won’t participate in such activities in the future.
Complete the update tasks on time and in quantity every month.
Of course, I am not angry, I just think there is no need to quarrel with readers over this kind of thing, I have to quarrel with readers too.
My original intention in writing books was to make money.
But I also want everyone to be happy.
Since the sudden update week makes so many people unhappy, I won’t participate.
If you don’t participate in the update week, there will be no shortage of updates.
I can't repay those who have supported me and loved me all the way. From now on, I will update eight chapters every Monday. You don't need to vote for each update, but I will add it for those who love this book.
This is equal to 5 updates per week, and 20 updates per month.
A total of more than 40,000 words.
I will try to increase my monthly coding volume to 240,000 words. This way, I will have a minimum of 180,000 words per month + a sudden update of 40,000 words, and I will still have 20,000 words left to save.
Without further ado, I would like to thank those who support me. It is you who have made "Stay, Beauty" achieve the results it has now, and it is you who have made me achieve the results I have now.
Thank you to those who scolded me. It was you who made me find my shortcomings. Although what you said may not be right, since you said it, it makes sense. You also made me stronger.
Writing a book is a long journey, and it often takes several years from the first word to the last word.
Whether they have followed me from the beginning, come in halfway, or have never read my book at all and are just here to attack me.
Without your support, I wouldn't be like this.
Lao Shi would like to thank everyone here.
The weather is getting colder, so I hope everyone will take care of themselves.
