We always meet in September, and two weeks pass in the blink of an eye. During this period, whether Fang Jing is taking the bus or going shopping, he will always see students in green camouflage uniforms.
I don’t know if it’s because they didn’t turn on the beauty filter, but they don’t look as good-looking as the girls on Douyin. They are all so tan that their parents almost can’t recognize them.
The new book "Zhu Xian" is updated four or five times a day. Now it has been written that Zhang Xiaofan went down the mountain and met Baguio, and the two entered the bloody society. After a period of preparation, the plot gradually unfolded, and the number of readers was increasing.
So far, the number of collectors has reached more than 12,000. Compared with the popularity of the previous life, it can be said to be a bit inferior. Fang Jing is not discouraged and reluctantly accepts this ending.
Now it is almost 200,000 words, with 12,000 collected. Compared with other books of the same period, it is not bad, it can even be considered very good. After all, a newcomer can be proud of this achievement.
However, the reputation of this book in its previous life was so great that Fang Jing felt a little unbalanced when it suddenly reached such an ending.
There is no way, the timing is wrong. If it had been published three to five years earlier, this book might have achieved better results. Also, there are too few recommendations and low exposure, so many readers will not see this book.
I found the editor's Penguin account and Fang Jing applied to put it on the shelves. It already had 200,000 words. There was no point in delaying it any longer. It was better to put it on the shelves early and make money.
"Your book has good results. Don't rush to put it on the shelves. This week I will give you a selection of new books."
As soon as I sent it, the editor Chang He replied within a minute. Fang Jing was overjoyed. Generally, new books have no exposure. The only way to float to the surface is through recommendations.
The right to recommend is in the hands of the editor. As the link between the website and the author, the editor can completely control the life and death of a book. It would be great to get a recommendation before it is put on the shelves.
"Thank you, Changhe." Fang Jing sent an emoticon of hands clasped together.
"It's okay. I think your book has great potential. Try to save as many manuscripts as possible. If you can get to the top of the new book selection this week, then it will be confirmed next week."
Fang Jing's breath tightened, and he felt a little uneasy. This recommendation was ranked second only to website blocked recommendation and Sanjiang recommendation. It was a highly exposed page.
When looking for novels, many people just click on the categories to recommend or recommend Sanjiang. They collect at least a thousand in a week, and some even collect thousands in a day, and some even exceed 10,000 in a week.
The promotion system of Yuedian is that the strongest come first. Among the recommended people in the same group, as long as you are in the top three, there will be at least one recommendation in the next period. If you are first, then move on.
Fang Jing looked at the number one new book selection in the previous issue. The collection increased by more than a hundred every day, and he was promoted directly in the end. This issue has been strongly recommended by category.
After comparing it secretly, Fang Jing felt that he had a high chance of promotion. Zhu Xian was now steadily adding two to three hundred collections every day, and sometimes even a little higher on weekends.
…
Three days later, at two o'clock on Friday, it is recommended to arrive on time. The name of the book Zhu Xian will be on the selected page for the next week, and Fang Jing will continue to update it five times a day.
Among the six books recommended in this issue, Zhu Xian's collection of 420 was a small step ahead on the first day, temporarily ranking first. Fang Jing is not in a hurry, because generally the ones with the largest increase in collections are ranked second.
Three days.
Sure enough, the number increased by 680 on the second day, 640 on the third day, and the number two only increased by one or two hundred every day. After a week, Zhu Xian's collection increased by more than 3,000.
The recommendation has not yet been released, but the website website recommended by the category has come again. Zhu Xian is making great progress all the way, with an increase of 1,200 in the first day, and the total collection exceeds 20,000 in a few days.
Readers also cast a lot of recommendation votes every day. At its peak, there were more than 1,600 votes a day. This book was considered a hit.
On September 22nd, Zhu Xian was put on the shelves, and Fang Jing threw out ten chapters at once, because the first order within 24 hours of being put on the shelves is very important to a book. This is the only way for editors to evaluate whether a book is worth continuing to pay attention to.
No matter how good your early results are and you have a collection of 100,000, but the subscription is only a few hundred on the first day it is put on the shelves, it has already been relegated to the sidelines in the editor's mind, and you should not think about recommending it in the future.
Fang Jing's current collection is 26,000. Most readers will run away after charging for the book. Generally, the ratio is ten to one, which means that only more than 2,000 people actually spend money to read the book.
Of course, if the readership is high, this data will be better, but this is the case for most of the time. Fang Jing created the VIP chapter at 12 noon.
After publishing ten chapters in an instant, his eyes were fixed on the screen. The first hour passed and he had 600 subscriptions. Fang Jing was a little anxious.
Although he knew that most readers read novels in the afternoon or evening, he would inevitably feel a little nervous. Considering that Fang Hui was about to get out of school, he still got up and went to buy groceries, otherwise he would never give up until the girl came back and made a scene.
…
"Fang Jing, how is your novel writing going? I heard from Fang Hui that you have been typing in front of the computer every day during this period?"
As soon as Fang Jing came downstairs, he met Xu Li who was off work. He could only force a smile and said: "It's okay, it's okay."
"Then would you mind showing it to me? After all, I have been teaching for decades and can help you check for any gaps."
"Uh!" Fang Jing scratched his head and stopped talking.
"Why, are you still afraid that I will plagiarize your work?"
"No, that's what...I've already sent it."
Xu Li smiled. Young people are writing novels so fast nowadays? How long did it take for them to be published? "What's the name? Which magazine is it published to? I'll look back."
"Zhu Xian! Yuedian Chinese website! Xianxia channel!"
Xu Li's smile froze, and her already dark face turned even darker, "Zhu Xian? Xian Xia?"
"Alas! Teacher Xu, don't do anything."
"I'll let you be a fairy, and I'll let you kill an immortal."
"Teacher, don't fight yet. Listen to my explanation. I never said that I wrote a traditional novel."
"You kid, do you want to piss me off to death? Are you writing that crap for so many days? I'm asking you to not do your job properly."
"Teacher, that's not a joke, online novels can also make money."
"How dare you talk back?"
…
Before Fang Hui entered the door, she heard her brother wailing, as if she was being beaten. She felt anxious, picked up a half-meter-long wooden stick from the roadside and rushed in. After living together for so many years, she couldn't let her brother get into trouble.
, "Brother, wait for me!"
"Bang!"
Kicking open the courtyard door, Fang Hui was stunned. She saw Fang Jing pitifully being pulled by Xu Li's ears, and her fingers kept poking at her head. Her ears were red and red.
"Aunt Xu, what are you doing? What's wrong with my brother?"
"Your brother is disobedient. I will discipline him. You came just in time. Give me the stick. It's been a long time since I hit anyone. Your brother is itchy."
"Oh! Then you are busy, I went upstairs to do my homework."
Handing out the stick, Fang Hui went upstairs with an innocent look on her face, as if she didn't see Fang Jing's heartbroken eyes on the way.
"Fang Hui, you traitor! I raised you in vain!"
"Then what, Teacher Xu, just beat me and you'll be fine. My brother will probably beat me again later!"
"Hey Fang Jing, why didn't I see that you were so capable? You even beat your sister. How old is she, and you have the heart to be so cruel?" Xu Li hit Fang Jing on the leg with a stick, and Xu Li scolded her while beating her.
"Fang Hui, I remember you!" Fang Jing gritted his teeth, looked at the stairs and yelled.
"How dare you threaten me? I think you are going to overthrow the world?"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Stop hitting her. Teacher, I was wrong. I didn't want to hit her."
Xu Li taught so many students, and no one was beaten by her. If they made a mistake, they would be beaten. At the parent-teacher conference at that time, no matter which parent, the first thing they said was to beat the child casually, as long as it was not beaten to death.
