Chapter 38: This is the power of rules

February 28, the 16th day of the New Year.

Today is the time for Qidian’s editorial department to go to work. After resting for more than half a month, we finally returned.

All editors are sharpening their knives and preparing to start recruiting new authors.

Oh, it’s the author’s book.

Not reading your own authors and works for such a long time is a bit like leaving your own cat in the city to celebrate the New Year alone. Even if you have enough food, water, and cat litter, you are always a little worried.

"What lazy author, Kangkang, asked me to take more than 3 days off during the Chinese New Year..."

The editor-in-chief of the group, Bainai, was yelling as he sat down at his desk, completely forgetting who had just taken a 17-day vacation.

After looking around...

"Damn! All the great masters have taken more than 3 days off! Is there another one who takes vacation at the same time as me? No updates for half a month?"

So angry!

How can online writers take a break during the New Year?

I just have time during the Chinese New Year holiday, so why don’t I post an update? Is it worthy of sending New Year blessings to readers?

The editors of each group checked the update status of their books and had an idea in mind.

It will be clear at once who is the hard worker and who is the lazy one.

When the people in the back row make recommendations, they will also be given priority to those who are struggling.

There is an unspoken rule in the online literary world - authors who update more will be favored by editors, but no one will like an author who is lazy and lazy but still loves to read.

"Fuck! This guy Binghuo writes porn again. He was banned for 4 chapters during the Chinese New Year. He makes trouble for me every day!"

After the editor-in-chief Bao Nai carefully read the "original" chapter before it was banned, he was satisfied with the revised version of Binghuo.

"Should I say it or not, Binghuo's fans should be quite harmonious. After all, what bad intentions can a group of LSPs have?"

Suddenly, a scream came from the other side of the office.

"ah!!!"

"Why did he cut it? Damn it!"

"Xiao Ai, I'm not kind to you. I've given you all my recommendations. Why do you treat me like this? This book has a chance to hit thousands of people, without any precautions or worries... It will be over in the new year.

Cut?"

"Huh? Why did I start singing?"

The editors around were shaking their heads.

They all know that the author Xiao Ai is a new author who is highly praised by a group of new editors. He is strong and writes some good-looking love stories.

If it maintains its current level, coupled with some editorial management, it is very likely that a book with tens of thousands of orders will be published.

It's a pity that this author just can't write long, so he cut it off after hundreds of thousands of words and became an old eunuch.

This New Year's speech comes with a sentence: "If you are celebrating the New Year, write a Gou Ba Shu. If you are tired, cut it off! Let's fight again next year!"

Reader negative emotions +999

Another office.

"Damn it! My new media book has become a hit, it's amazing!"

"I have a plagiarized book and it was reported, damn it!"

"Gan, I..."

During the Chinese New Year, a lot of things happened in Qidian. For a while, the entire editorial department was shouting and screaming.

...

Group 2 Editorial Office.

Xiaoxing opened her backstage with high spirits and took a look at "Urban and Countryside Miracle Doctor".

"Haha~ Who has my Puding's update and stability? During the Chinese New Year, 10,000 words per day, what does it mean to be dedicated! (tactical backtracking.jpg)"

Other editors cast envious glances. Everyone likes hard-working authors, and hard-working and accomplished authors are rare among people.

The new editor, Xiaoxing, picked up a treasure author right away.

However, next, Xiaoxing frowned.

"The word count is already 200,000 words, which exceeds the standard for listing... The previous recommendations were not promoted, and now the collection is less than 2,000, which is a bit broken."

This is the disadvantage of being on shelves during the Chinese New Year.

Shaking his head helplessly, he sent a message to Pu Ding: "You can still make some recommendations for this book. Can it be put on the shelves later?"

"Dah!"

Seeing Pu Ding's reply, Xiaoxing had already expected it.

"He is still so unruly..."

"Aren't you afraid of the deep alley with the aroma of wine?"

"Confidence from Puding?"

Although Xiaoxing didn't really like this kind of author who didn't follow the editor's ideas, he couldn't help but doubt himself when he thought about Pu Ding's creation of the myth.

"No one wants their work to be sold out, so...he must have a back-up plan!"

Thinking of this, Xiaoxing suddenly remembered something and hurriedly reported "The Rogue Miracle Doctor" to the new media channel.

Next week, and also next month, I will start pushing there.

"New media is Pu Ding's home base. The previous book also performed poorly at Qidian and became popular in new media. This one...should be the same, right?"

Xiaoxing is not sure either. After all, the book written by Pu Ding is a new subject, and he cannot fully understand the market's reaction.

Qidian's start here is much better than the start of the previous book, but the data is similar to that of a new player who has just signed a contract, and he has basically lost.

And he took a look at the comment section, which was full of stench.

I almost smoked him out.

"You don't know about control and criticism? You are not a qualified author..."

After looking at the various data of "The Scoundrel Doctor" a little more, Xiaoxing went to work on other things, and the editing time was also very tight.

...

Pujie rejected Xiaoxing's bad intentions to apply for several more rounds of recommendations and chose to put it on the shelves on March 1st.

In this way, he won't get recommendations for new books, and they will only be recommended based on performance after they are put on the shelves.

His new book issue didn’t get enough recommendations, and the first order was low when it was released, so the results were poor.

The worse the score, the less recommended it is.

A virtuous cycle is formed!

"This is the quality of a professional writer, using rules to block his own performance!"

The strength of the five-year veteran is clearly revealed!

Today is also the first day of school.

There are no class schedules. After arriving, everyone packs up their things, catches up with their roommates, and has a meal together.

Pu Jie hurriedly wrote during the day, because there was a high probability that he would have fun with the Three Musketeers tonight.

After I finished writing, I took a look at the recommended books from various new media channels and found that there were no works of my own.

"It's cool! This is the power of rules!"

New media channels must have more than 60,000 words before they can apply for listing.

Because new media charges start from 50,000 words, if there are no paid chapters, then why promote it? Is it for charity?

Pu Jie calculated a good time. Before the editor went on vacation, he did not have enough words and could not put his book on new media channels.

When the editor came back, it was already the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and his book had 200,000 words.

At this time, if you push it to new media channels, you will definitely lose a lot of money.

“You must calculate every step to ensure that enough subsidies fall into your pocket.”

"It's a very good start this time. At least you don't have to worry about being suddenly stabbed in the back. Next, as long as there are no problems with the new media channels, it will be stable!"

Pu Jie looked at the articles written by urban masters in new media channels. This trend started by himself is too scary!

And his new book goes against the trend and will be abandoned by readers just like Qidian!

"The market is king..."

Sudden.

"Duang!"

The bedroom door was knocked open by Dachun.

"What the hell? Brother Jie, you came very early!"

Pu Jie:( ̄△ ̄;)
