Chapter 164 A special speech on the launch (additional update, 17118)
Speaking of manuscript fees, Meng Xingkong thought about it for a while and sent a notice in the small group:
"@Everyone, the results of our book launch this time far exceeded expectations. We held a meeting to discuss it and decided to change our buyout contract to a guaranteed share. If the actual manuscript fee exceeds the guaranteed minimum of 30 yuan per thousand words, the excess will be
I will give half of it to everyone, please continue to work hard, update your code, and make money together!"
For a moment, the group exploded!
"Wuhu! Starry Sky Giant Bull! Love you! Crazy fan!"
"Wow, wow, I'm so moved, I feel like I can add 10,000 words today."
"Let me tell you, this wave of starry sky giants is really awesome, they really look up to us. I'm committed to you, let's make a fortune together!"
"In the simulator, my writing is the worst. But this shouldn't cost Starry Sky a huge loss, right?"
"Xing Kongda has put all the food in his mouth. If you can't write this, don't write online articles. Just find a factory to tighten the screws."
"Don't say anything. When I pay the royalties, I'll clean my butt and come to Kyoto to find you, boss."
"Damn it! There's a male Tong, get out quickly!"
"Otong, go aside!"
"Damn, why are there male Tongs in this group again? (They are all male Tongs, that's great.jpg)"
In a group of people, morale is condensed and motivation becomes stronger.
Originally, the author of the three most popular simulator books has been feeling a little depressed recently.
Because the books they wrote were bought out by Duoyu Company, they would send the manuscripts to Duoyu Company’s review editors every day, and then they would upload them to Qidian, using the Duoyu Company’s author account, and they did not have
Copyrighted.
In other words, the contract they signed with Duoyu Company for this book is 30 yuan per thousand words, and they can only earn this hard-earned money. If the book becomes popular, Duoyu Company will make the rest of the money, and they are
There is no way to counter it.
Unless he stops writing, he won’t even have 30 words per thousand words.
However, newly opened books may not necessarily be popular, and they may not even reach 30 yuan for 1,000 words.
And once he fails to write for no reason, Duoyu Company can even deduct his royalties and demand compensation according to the contract.
After that, he couldn't work in Duoyu Company anymore.
And what about this fire book?
Don't worry, someone will naturally write it for him. Although he may not be as good at writing it, the money won't be a problem.
Therefore, if the author of Duoyu Company is a eunuch, it will be very disadvantageous for him, unless he is sure that his next book will be a hit.
However, everyone is old-fashioned and relies on the subject matter to take off.
At this time, it feels like lying to myself to say that my next book will definitely be popular.
Therefore, the people with the best simulator results can only watch the book take off, while they themselves receive a royalties of 30 yuan per thousand words.
Until just now!
Meng Xingkong suddenly changed their book to a guaranteed share, and his idea suddenly became clear!
Tears of gratitude.
Only by updating can we repay!
Other authors also saw the sincerity and generosity of Duoyu Company, so they naturally followed up with a large number of updates and wrote good content.
This made the already cohesive small team become even more cohesive.
Meng Xingkong was actually thinking about this matter during the Chinese New Year.
The reason is that the simulator is more popular than he imagined. This idea is very suitable for them to write. The writing style is not demanding and the creativity is good. If you add some content that you are familiar with, you will get good results.
A pig can get up even if you put it on the vent.
Especially the three books above them exploded horizontally, it was like a fire taking off.
If not, the book "My Strategy for the Goddess Simulator" has a chance to be ordered by 10,000 people, and Xiu Xian and Wu Dalang are also qualified to win 6,000 orders per book.
He had to take this step in order to stabilize the minds of the authors and get them to improve both quality and updates.
Otherwise, the team he finally built would fall apart due to money issues, and everything he had done before would be lost.
In the short term, Duoyu seems to have lost money.
But if the author can write longer, get better grades, and stay at Duoyu Company, it will still be very beneficial in the long run.
Some small websites do this and sign guaranteed contracts with authors.
If the book is not popular, there is a guarantee that you will not starve to death. If the book is popular, you can get half of the money and a lot of profits. You can stay on the website and continue writing in the future.
Of course, if the author is confident enough, he or she will directly sign the share, which is the case for most Qidian books.
Taking off and jumping are both self-confident.
Meng Xingkong's operation has achieved results that are visible to the naked eye.
Then he struck while the iron was hot.
"Brothers, won't the 27 of you put it on the shelves tomorrow? I have come up with a way to collectively increase the first order for everyone. This is what you wrote in your acceptance speech."
Friday, February 21st.
PY is appropriate and SM is avoided.
Every Friday at noon, Qidian has a batch of new books on the shelves.
What is different from the past is that there are 30 simulators among the books on the shelves today.
Although there are usually follow-up themes, they usually last for one or two months, with several follow-up books on the shelves every week.
Then most of their first orders will show a downward trend.
Until no one reads the follow-up work, the gust of wind is considered to have passed.
As for simulators. This subject became a hit, and 30 simulator books took off on the new book list!
It’s hard to tell whether it was these books that made the simulator genre popular, or whether they took off after the simulator became popular.
This is as hard to answer as which came first, the chicken or the egg.
But the first simulator-themed book is generally recognized as "My Doomsday Simulator" by Heian Shen.
After this wave of traffic increased, Ping An Shen almost finished the book, and subscriptions suddenly increased again.
It can be said that it is a book written in return.
Gao Shouchong.
I am an old Qidian bookworm who usually likes to read articles on the fantasy channel.
His latest book "My Fantasy Simulator" is on the shelves today.
Automatic subscription has been turned on in advance.
He couldn't stop reading this book and was waiting for the update every day.
Fortunately, the author of this book updates 6,000 words every day, so it feels good to catch up.
It’s much better than most of the 4,000 daily ones.
10 o'clock in the morning.
"My Fantasy Simulator" has been updated!
Gao Shouchong opened it excitedly and looked at the chapter title:
"Remarks on the Launch"
"Tch! I thought it was updated, damn it!"
However, you still need to read the testimonials to see how miserable the author's life is, how difficult life is, and how hard it is to type every day. It can also improve your own happiness.
Happiness is actually a kind of contrast. Even if you are not rich, but you are better than others around you, you will be happy.
On the other hand, if you have enough food and clothing and live a comfortable life, but everyone else is like this, you won’t have much happiness.
A very realistic thing.
Therefore, Qidian authors are well aware of this, and they always choose the worst aspects of themselves to write their testimonials.
Backache, hair loss, insomnia, tired part-time job, family difficulties.
Readers think that I am much happier than him, and then they will pity the weak, subscribe, reward, and give me monthly tickets.
Today, Gao Shouchong was planning to appreciate what unfortunate things happened in the author's family.
Then I saw this piece of testimonials
Chapter 3 will be updated first. There are still chapters at 4 o'clock in the morning. Don't open it, because that time will be invaded by Cthulhu, which is the whisper of the evil god. Watch it after 4:30. I won't tell you the specific reasons. You all know.
I understand. If you accidentally open it and see something scary, you can just open the directory and refresh it after 4:30.
