Finally signed a contract! Send a single chapter to thank you!
It was my 8th time to sign the contract and finally succeeded. I sent the contract today.
I am really happy! My wife is also very happy. She happily took on the dishwashing job for a year so that I could have time to write novels.
Is it really true: one person signs a contract and the whole family is happy!??
I am also very grateful to my wife, who has been advertising for me on Diandianquan for a long time.
I don’t know how many book friends are here through Dot Circle??
In addition, I am very grateful to the book friends who have been with me for a long time, voted for this book, and commented on it.
Thank you very much. If not so many people voted for me, I might have given up long ago!
After all, there are people watching, voting and commenting, which makes me feel that I am doing something meaningful.
There are too many names. There are only one or two hundred people who vote regularly, so I won’t thank them one by one. I’m sorry.
I remember you in my heart??
The current collection of this book is only 4,300, but on the weekly recommendation list, I see that books with a collection of 20,000 to 30,000 are often rejected.
So, sometimes I still feel quite happy.
I feel like my book friends are more sticky than them, haha??
Also, let’s talk about this book, it was not written well in the early stages.
The main reason is that I don’t have much writing experience, so the quality of the story is quite different.
In addition, everyone knows that the crackdown is strict. So I dare not write a lot of things, and the content is a lot empty.
For example, if you are working in finance, how can you not deal with power agencies?
In addition, there are also lending stories that I dare not start writing. There are a lot of discussions about human nature in them.
I have many friends who are in the loan business and have a lot of materials.
Of course, the stories are not good ones. Most of them are about romance.
In addition, there are too many companies in the book. They generally describe strategic directions and occasionally mention specific operations.
I don’t know if any readers have noticed, but sometimes a conversation between two people will lead to a little bit about the company’s specific development situation and what it has done.
For example: Zhang Yida's conversation with an American reporter revealed that Petnet organized volunteers to take in stray cats and dogs.
This is called a flashback!??, I don’t even know...
Because I tried to write about Ruixiang in this chapter, Pate.com in the next chapter, and Yimin Wangjin in the next chapter...
If I write this way for a long time, I will get tired of it, and I guess readers will get tired of it too.
So I hid the company's development status and what it has done in conversations with investors and partners.
In addition, in Chapter 14, my mind was confused by too many numbers, so I set one more parameter, which resulted in the net profit of Ruixiang's financial supermarket reaching 36 million yuan.
In fact, this data was enlarged 5 times, and it was initially set to 7.2 million yuan.
Therefore, the pre-money valuation of Ruixiang’s Series A financing reached US$200 million. In fact, I wanted to set it to US$40 million, and then raise US$10 million.
In this way, the data is more reasonable.
This was only discovered after two or three days, and there was no point in changing it anymore, so it was a mistake to make a mistake.
In addition, let’s talk about the writing status.
I definitely don’t feel as good as the first one or two months when I first wrote the book.
In the past month or two, I wrote on the plane, sometimes at four or five o'clock in the middle of the night.
Because at that time it was considered a self-pleasure mode, and I felt that I had no restrictions and could write whatever I wanted.
Later, the number of readers gradually increased, and some criticized and insulted me.
I accept criticism and suggestions with an open mind.
Regarding the insults, I didn’t criticize them back because I didn’t want to give other readers a bad impression.
Haha, you’re a gangster, and you still have the baggage of being an idol??
In fact, for a while, I didn’t even dare to click on the author’s backend comments. I was really afraid of getting scolded again.
I'm feeling much better now. When I saw someone scolding me before, my brain was instantly congested, and I was brewing an overwhelming force to fight back.
It's much better now, and the laughter has passed.
He sees the problem from his perspective, and I see it from my perspective. Of course, the scenery I see is different.
It's like: A reader once said that I was not patriotic, but he didn't provide any evidence.
I guess he thought I might use U.S. dollars more as a unit. In the early stage, Zhang Yida knew that P2P was not going to be popular, so he always emphasized developing abroad.
Furthermore, regarding financing, some readers complained that there were too many bets.
In fact, there are more bets in reality and they are more demanding.
I was afraid that everyone would think that I was abusing my boss, so I didn’t set the bet too harsh or too hellishly difficult.
This book was originally planned to be completed by the end of April, with probably a little over 1 million words written.
Now that I have signed the contract, I have changed my mind and will try my best to write 1.5 million to 2 million words.
There is also the issue of the number of words in chapters. I always write a chapter of 3000-4000 words.
I heard many people say that this is not a good idea. It is best to start with a chapter of 2,000 words, and break the 6,000 words into 3 chapters every day.
Let’s talk about the next book. I wanted to write about the venture capital industry, and I planned to prepare a detailed outline. However, the book contract was signed, and the plan had to be postponed.
Writing is actually a very interesting thing. I think I can adapt to it quite well.
Whether it's part-time or full-time, I should be able to write for a long time.
