The works on various recommended positions on Qidian suddenly changed like every Sunday afternoon in the past.
In an instant, almost every work in the recommended position changed and turned into something else.
In the category of military channels, "East China Tigers" ranks high, ranking at the top.
In the category recommendation position of the urban channel, "My Decathlon" appears in the middle position.
In terms of conspicuousness, "East China Tigers" is better than "My Decathlon".
But if we talk about the overall popularity of the two categories of channels, although the military channel at the starting point in 2006 is very popular, it is still worse than the urban channel on the whole.
After all, the popularity of urban channels has always been the second largest category after fantasy channels.
"The war has begun..."
In front of the computer, Sun Quan said softly to himself when he saw his work listed in the recommended category.
He is not a very competitive person, not even since he was a child. For example, when he was a student, if the girl he had a crush on was chased by someone, he would change his crush to another one. He had no interest in playing fair competition with others.
For example, in his previous life, when he was working on the street for many years, he rarely competed with others for rankings. He always felt that it was not interesting, and he always felt that even if he won the first place, what would he do?
Then after more than ten years on the streets, he gradually began to reflect.
——Those who started coding earlier than me have become rich; those who entered the industry at the same time as me have also become rich; even those who entered the industry later than me, there are so many latecomers who have gained fame and fortune. Why do I keep plowing on
Where is the street?
Every time I reflect on this issue, I feel a little sad.
He began to wonder: Is it because I don’t have the will to win?
This seems to be the answer.
Then he tried to aim at the first place on the list, and used the first place on each list as his imaginary enemy. He told himself in his heart: If you ask for the top, you will get it; if you ask for it, you will get it.
.
This is an old saying. The general idea is that if you pursue first-rate work, you will often end up with second-rate work; and if you pursue second-rate work, you will often end up with third-rate work.
He used to always think that a person should be moderate in life! Don't seek the best, don't seek the worst, just live in the middle.
In that state of mind, he kept throwing himself into the street.
With a different state of mind, he came up with the book "My Decathlon", and the result... turned out to be really good. He seemed to be less desperate, and actually started to earn a stable income of 10,000 yuan a month.
So, when he returned to 2006, he had different ambitions than before.
Like a middle school boy, he always wants to take first place.
My goal these days is to be number one on the new book list.
Because of such ambition, "My Decathlon" had just been promoted by Qidian's urban channel category, so he immediately posted an updated chapter and asked for recommendation votes and collections at the end of the chapter.
Because "Tiger of East China" is still ranked higher than him at the moment, he wants to close the data gap between the two books as soon as possible.
…
It's past 12 o'clock in the night.
Sun Quan once again refreshed the list of newcomers and new books. Although it was past 12 o'clock, the starting point data was delayed, and the rankings and data on the list had not yet been changed and cleared.
He glanced at it and saw that "Tiger of East China" was still ranked second, and his "My Decathlon" was still ranked fourth. He smiled and went to the author's backstage to post another chapter. This is today's additional update.
chapter.
After posting today's extra update, he went to his book fan group "Huaguoshan".
Huaguoshan, which was built on Friday, already has 124 group members.
When there are more people in a group, there are always night owls. No, when Sun Quan opened the group chat box, he saw someone still chatting inside.
Red Dust Can Wolf: "Hello everyone! A new member has joined the group, please take care of me!"
Big Fat Orange: "When new members join the group, please report your measurements first! Take photos of your awesomeness!"
Mister Mi: "When new people join the group, please report your measurements first! Take photos of your sexy photos!"
The king grass among the weeds: "When new people join the group, please report your measurements first! Take photos of your results!"
…
Sun Quan looked at it and raised the corners of his mouth, because this kind of chat reminded him of those book fans in his previous life. When his first batch of book fans joined the group in his previous life, the atmosphere seemed to be the same.
Putting his hands on the computer keyboard, Sun Quan began to speak.
My old man: "I'm trying to get some votes. This week's new book list will be changed soon. It's already past 12 o'clock. There should be recommendation votes for the new day. Can anyone help me cast two votes?"
As the group leader and the author of this book, as soon as he bubbled up in the group, he immediately aroused everyone's enthusiasm for speaking, including some guys who were online but were diving.
Aiming at Jianghu: "Okay! Let's vote now!"
Fat Orange Boss: “Boss! I’ve finally waited for you!”
Fading Addiction￥: "Catch the author alive and I want it braised in red sauce!"
Quiet beauty Zi: "I want to stew!"
Qingsi Rumeng Da Fengge: "Want a ticket? Yes! Let's take a naked photo first!"
…
Maybe it's because this group is new and everyone has just joined the group, so Sun Quanyi is in the group and everyone is very enthusiastic about speaking.
It's just a little too enthusiastic.
How dare you ask the author to exchange fruit photos for recommendation votes?
Sun Quan rolled his eyes, but couldn't help the smile on his lips. He continued to type on the keyboard with his hands, chatting with these guys, feeling very relaxed.
This discussion lasted until about 1 o'clock in the morning.
When he refreshed the list of newcomers and new books again, the rankings and data on the list had changed.
First place: "Super Mecha"
Second place: "Tiger of East China"
Third place: "My Decathlon"
…
The top two spots remained unchanged, but his book "My Decathlon" moved up one place.
And, if nothing else goes wrong, "Super Mecha", currently ranked number one, will disappear from this list tomorrow because it will be one month after its release.
Therefore, there is not much time left for him to make the list.
Seeing this, some people may be wondering - why is there not much time left to get on the list? Isn’t there only one week for the recommended position?
The reason is very simple and can be explained in four words - head effect!
People who often pay attention to Qidian's major lists may notice a phenomenon: that is, the data of the book ranked first on each list is often more than double that of the second-ranked book.
And this is the head effect!
Most readers who look for books on the list will first choose the book ranked first on the list to try out. Therefore, once a book reaches the first place on a certain list, its data will change as time goes by.
The increase will be faster and faster, and within a day or two, subsequent books will basically lose their qualifications to compete.
In order to seize the opportunity as soon as possible, Sun Quan did not skimp on the manuscripts at hand this time, and published three additional chapters in one go. At the end of each chapter, he asked for recommendation votes and collections.
This is his first time competing for the top spot on the list.
