Since Qidian started publishing novels on new media channels last year,
Never before has a book like this become so popular in new media channels!
After launching new media channels,
Daily sales have been rising all the way, from a few hundred to tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
Peak daily sales reached 500,000!
In November and December, under the main promotion of Qidian,
"Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" has received great exposure on major new media platforms.
So the results are outstanding all the way,
The second best-selling book through new media channels has a daily sales of over 10,000.
These two months belong to "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King",
New media channel operators are also making a lot of money.
In this kind of contract, they want to take the lion’s share!
The split is 82 cents.
In other words, for a daily sales volume of 500,000, they will take 400,000, but only give a starting point of 100,000.
These days, traffic is king. If you control the traffic, you will have the right to speak.
Even if the difference in share is such a big difference, Qidian still has to cooperate with others, just because they have a large number of users.
Exposing a little bit is enough to make you feel full.
Wednesday, January 5th.
Qidian Editorial Department,
Everyone was sitting upright, except for the editors of the second group, who walked with wind in their eyes.
Today is the time for new media channels to settle royalties.
There is a two-month delay in settlement of royalties for new media channels.
In other words, they can only settle the balance for November now.
Before settlement,
No one knows the exact figures,
Because daily sales do not represent real consumption,
Different new media channels have different operating methods.
Pricing strategies, sales models, recharge bonus amounts...are all different.
We can only estimate the total sales volume for the day, but this sales volume is definitely higher than the actual revenue.
Today, it’s time to check out!
All editors are looking forward to the myth of this new media channel and how much revenue it can bring to Qidian in the first month!
Editor-in-chief Xingchen sits at the top,
"Open data!"
The editor-in-chief of the second group, Styx He, took a deep breath and opened the settlement list from the new media channel on his computer.
projected,
"Wow!!!"
The conference room was filled with exclamations of surprise.
The editors of Qidian were shocked. They could have imagined that there would be many,
But... I didn’t expect so much!
904520.
"Did I count the decimal point correctly? This is 900,000!"
"Good guy! Even if you get a bite from the new media, what else can you do?"
"It's so powerful. A new book written by a newcomer actually achieved results achieved by top tier masters in just one month."
The editor-in-chief of the second group, Ming He, said sternly: "This is only November. The number of words in the book is not enough, and it has not fully exerted its power. By December, the manuscript fee... will at least double!"
"hiss--"
“Wouldn’t that mean we can compete with the top five works on our main website?”
One book conferring the title of God!
This term came to all the editors' minds.
Although this god is not well-known, and even the main website has only 30 subscriptions, it does not prevent "Puding" from making a lot of money!
Qidian and the author each received half of these royalties, which amounted to more than 450,000 yuan.
After paying taxes (very important), it's almost 400,000.
"Ahem!"
Editor-in-chief Xingchen cleared his throat,
"Everyone has also seen that new media channels have huge potential. We have just taken the right step and have already gained a lot. 900,000 is just the beginning. Next... we will achieve 1.8 million, 3.6 million, and 7.2 million!"
"The performance of the main website has reached a bottleneck, and new media channels are the way out for the future! Today, Qidian issued a call for essays across the entire network - urban masters among the people!"
"By the way, publish the new media channel royalties for "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" so that the authors can take a good look at what is trendy! I have already thought about the title. "New Author's Book Becomes a God, Makes 450,000 Monthly, Behind the Scenes"
The reason is..."
"As for the characteristics of new media channels, let me briefly mention three points..."
After the meeting,
Editor-in-chief Styx explained to Xiaoxing,
"The royalties have already been paid. Go tell Pu Ding and give him a nice surprise!"
"Boss, that's not true! This kind of royalties... Pu must have expected it long ago when it was decided, so he can keep updating 10,000+ times a day, which is as stable as Mount Tai."
Xiaoxing's eyes revealed the light of wisdom that could see through everything.
...
Qidian new media channel data was quickly leaked.
All other novel websites were shocked!
Qidian is making a fortune in silence!
The sales volume of a new media book is equal to the sales volume of the top book on their website!
This is a debut novel written by a newcomer!
All novel websites immediately sensed business opportunities.
New media channels are the new track for online articles!
Qidian has been planning for a long time in advance and has also published a popular book catering to new media channels.
And they are still taking the high-quality IP route,
These online writing websites are not only beaten down in terms of high-quality books, but also outclassed by others!
This is no longer overtaking, it is directly overtaking by a large circle!
then...
January,
The other five largest online writing websites on the market have begun to deploy new media.
The writers under the guidance of the editor tried to imitate the style of "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" in an attempt to replicate the brilliant achievements of this new media hit.
Among them, the editor-in-chief of the largest Chinese website Mo Ran sent a notice to the editorial department,
"This month, whoever can dig up 'Pu Ding'le' to our website and open a book will get double this year's prize!"
Suddenly,
The editors of Hengsheng.com are like chicken blood.
Start using your own channel relationships and inquire about Pu Ding’s contact information.
...
Wei Fan has been in a bad mood recently,
I finally fell in love with the novel, but the author actually held the copyright and refused to sell it.
200,000,
He thinks that he has already given a lot,
Why do directors like to find works from the Internet and make them into film and television works?
Is it because the story is well written?
yes,
But not all,
One very important point is... Internet articles naturally have huge traffic,
Those paying readers are loyal fans of this book,
They have paid real money to prove that they will support the book,
Then if it is made into a film and television work, it will also attract a large number of fans of the original work to pay for it.
Therefore, this is also the reason why the more subscribers there are for books on the Qidian website, the more expensive the copyrights will be.
Wei Fan bought "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" simply because he fell in love with the story of this novel.
The story and writing style in it coincided with his shooting concept.
If he buys this novel, he can only buy novels,
No traffic, no fans.
Even if the performance of this work is too poor, it may be criticized after it is released...
"A new author, a new work, with nothing but some popularity on Weibo, how can he have the confidence to reject me?"
Wei Fan has no plans to increase the price,
He has not saved much money over the years, plus the investment he can get,
The total shooting cost was only 4 million,
For scripts, up to 20% of the upfront cost will be given!
You must know that this is just a novel. To adapt it into a filmable script requires the efforts of screenwriters.
The novel adaptation rights are RMB 200,000, and the screenwriting team’s fee is RMB 600,000.
After much thought, it was difficult for him to give a higher price.
"If he holds the copyright so much, could it be that... he has a back-up plan?"
Thinking of this, Wei Fan's mind was suddenly opened.
He heard someone from Qidian’s copyright department talk about the author’s background.
"That's right! He majored in screenwriting, so he must know his stuff, and if I remember correctly... Wang Xiang is currently leading the screenwriting department at Beiyi. With him as an old screenwriter in charge, students should be able to distinguish the pros and cons, so since he doesn't
To sell...there must be a way for me to raise the price."
"This student...is definitely not simple!"
Wei Fan knew,
He can't delay it any longer,
He was determined to win this novel,
"It seems like I have to go back to school to meet this shrewd junior student of mine and see what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd..."
