Just after I woke up, I saw a comment from a book friend of "Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995", which made me not very happy. I felt that I should express my views as an online article author.
The reason for this incident is that I promised to publish three chapters in a row yesterday (in fact, I did it, one chapter at 11 o'clock, 3 o'clock, and 5 o'clock, and I didn't take a break during this period).
But this book friend may not have waited for the newly released chapters, so he made this mocking comment in the comments:
『Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995
Come on, author, let me finish it for you. Author: So what if I stopped updating for a day? Anyway, I updated in the early morning. The system ignored my updates for this day. Anyway, I did it full time. After a while,
They just forget about it and do it again, happily."
『Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995
I forgot something. Author: I update 4k chapters twice a day, which is very conscientious. Even if I update 4k chapters once a day, it is more conscientious than many authors. What's wrong, I will update 4k chapters once a day, you guys
If you are optimistic about the two updates, you will save money. As for what I said before, I lied to you, what’s the matter. If you like it, watch it, but if you don’t, go away."
『Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995
Author: Asking for leave? It doesn’t exist. How can I deceive you if I ask for leave? Do you really think I didn’t have the leave request for a minute or two? How can I deceive you if I wrote it?
Seeing this, I was very angry. Since I promised, I will naturally do it. I finished coding three chapters in more than six hours without a break. Although it is late, it doesn't make you laugh at me like this, right?
So I said to him: "If you deliberately insult me, I will be angry." (It was probably posted in the second chapter, which is around three o'clock.)
Yesterday morning, this book friend replied like this:
『Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995
Then I’m waiting for you, the author, to see if tonight’s so-called normal update will be updated.』
"Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995" Book friends, do you know how domineering your tone is?
I was really angry at the time. I said to myself that I have written four million words in this novel so far, but you are still a "disciple", you are full of calculations, and you have subscribed for about one or two hundred chapters. Why are you so arrogant? Why are you mocking me?
I?
At that time, I also mocked: "Then when will you make a full reservation?"
As a result, this book friend replied to me like this: "So in your eyes, not all of them are not book friends? Or are they not human beings? Wow, that's amazing. Walmart doesn't even dare to say that if you don't buy all the retail products, you are not a customer."
The author is considered very good. Book friends who are pursuing books in the later period need to be fully determined to ensure the most basic dignity in the eyes of the author. Tsk tsk, just think that I fed the dog with more than 2,000 starting coins. Anyway, the dog will look down on the more than 20 RMB.
.』
I think, this book friend, you are also a person who has studied. If you use Wal-Mart as an example, I will use this example to reply to you.
Indeed, as you said, even if you buy a pack of napkins at Wal-Mart, you are still a Wal-Mart customer, but you have not unpacked other Wal-Mart products, right?
But you, using your disciple’s fan points, saw the latest chapter. To put it simply, you spent less than 200 chapter subscription money to read the novel with more than 1,200 chapters (if you said, you skipped some of them)
A thousand chapters, then I have nothing to say), is it equivalent to unpacking and tasting all the products in Wal-Mart, trying them, and finally leaving with a few bags of napkins? - Do you think that if you were in
If Wal-Mart supermarket does this, the security will ask you to leave? Will Wal-Mart supermarket recognize you as their customer? I don’t think so?
I have always felt that Internet article writers are a vulnerable group, and many readers generally hold the concept: I read what you write, and reading pirated copies is also to give you face.
Even some readers who read pirated copies cursed after reading them. When some well-meaning book friends reminded them, they replied arrogantly: I read it and you are not allowed to curse?
These words are really assholes, you know?
I write novels and never plagiarize others. Every word is typed out one by one after careful consideration. You can understand that this is my job and novels are products for external sales. The income of a single chapter of an online article author is very high.
It’s miserable. For a 3,000-word novel, the income for one chapter is about 4.5 cents, relying on small profits but quick turnover.
Calculated based on the starting point charging 50%, for 3,001 chapters, it will cost you 9 cents to a little over 10 cents (the starting point VIP price is cheaper), and as a disadvantaged online article writer, for 3,001 chapters, I have to pay
Spend an hour and a half to two hours.
For one and a half to two hours, the real income of an online article author is 4.5 points. Isn’t it very hard?
In recent days, the outdoor temperature has been as high as 40 degrees Celsius. Because I have the habit of smoking while typing, I do not turn on the air conditioner while typing. Because the air is poor, the indoor temperature during the typing time is as high as 39 degrees.
The fan doesn't work at all. Every time I finish typing a novel, it feels like finishing a long-distance run. (In winter, for the same reason, you still need to open the windows for ventilation.)
Let’s talk about this book. Is the update speed of this book slow?
In about a year and a half, I wrote four million words. How many historical novels in the same period were updated faster than mine? As an online writer, I did it 24 hours a day, every day, and guaranteed two updates a day. On this premise
Next, I hope some book friends will respond to my insistence by ordering all books. Is this too much?
Some book friends don’t dare to eat Bawang meals when going out, and they honestly give money when they go to the supermarket to buy things. However, when they treat the author of the online article, they say, "I read your book to give you face." In the final analysis, isn't that bullying the Internet?
Is the author of the article from a vulnerable group? If you really have the ability, go to a five-star hotel for a meal and see if the other party will treat you as a customer.
Having said so much, in fact, I am not urging people to subscribe to them all. Book friends who follow my novels all know that I am relatively lazy. If I ask for monthly tickets or subscriptions, I will only add a sentence at the beginning of the article when I think of it.
, forget it when it expires. I always hope that everyone will consciously subscribe and vote consciously.
But I'm also a human being, and sometimes I get angry. Since you haven't fully subscribed, who do you have to accuse me of slow updates?
When you were out having fun with your friends, I was coding; when you were playing games and reading novels, I was coding; when you were traveling with your family during the holidays, I was still coding. Three hundred a year
For sixty-five days, I coded every day. Sometimes I thought, there is really no job in the world that is cheaper than that of an online article writer.
Oh, by the way, for that book friend of "Ouyang Xiaoshan 1995", you don't have to say something like 20 RBM fed the dog, add me on WeChat, and I will give it back to you with a WeChat red envelope. The pinyin of the chief disciple of the Jian Sect is
, I can’t afford to offend a book friend like you, so it’s better for us to separate as soon as possible.
Finally, I want to say that since writing the book in 2009, I have met all kinds of people.
There are people who watch pirated copies and scold them. I don’t want to pay attention to such people at all.
There are also people who read pirated copies but will give you help, such as "Gu'er" in the book review section - don't mind, I'm just giving an example, and the suggestions you gave are very pertinent.
There are also some book friends who used to post on Tieba and still advertise on other Tieba.
Money is not necessary, and I respect the love of these book lovers, so I will never say anything to them, "I will give you a full subscription anytime."
As for the other friends who read pirated copies, I hope you can keep some moral integrity when reading, because if you read the novels I wrote for free, you are actually infringing on the fruits of my labor. I will not accept your favor. On the contrary, you owe me a favor.
You watch silently, and when you see something unpleasant, you leave silently. Let’s just pretend that we have no intersection, so we don’t have to make each other lose face.
Finally, I would like to sincerely thank all the book friends who have supported this book and are still supporting it today.
I just woke up and my temper is quite irritable. Allow me to complain.
Now, I'm going to code.
Hey, behind the halo of well-known Internet article authors such as Tang Jia San Shao and Tiancan Tudou, the vast majority of Internet article authors are actually really miserable. They are either coding or on the way to code. Sometimes they want to get some subscriptions.
, it is really not easy. For a large number of online article authors, full attendance (600 yuan) every month is also an income that must be earned, including the authors.
Here, I sincerely hope that book friends who have the ability to subscribe can subscribe to this book and give me support. When I use this money to support my family, I will remember the kindness of all book friends. Thank you~
At two forty-six, it's time for me to code. Yours sincerely.
