Ye Xuan looked at the word "Li Hui" on the caller ID of his mobile phone. He thought for a moment and then answered the call.
"edit."
"Ye Xuan, I have told the editor-in-chief what you said. The editor-in-chief is very angry. If you insist on doing this, Qidu Novel Network will remove "Dou Po" from the shelves." Li Hui said solemnly.
When Ye Xuan heard what Li Hui said, he was not surprised at all. This was the same as what a certain reader on Earth did in his previous life. They were very domineering. Once you want to leave, all your works will be removed and blocked.
Ye Xuan was not affected in any way by this. The website's approach could only restrain other people, but it posed no threat to him at all.
Because Ye Xuan has a system, and he now has his own traffic reservoir, plus "Dou Po" came out and gained a lot of fans.
It can be said that even if Ye Xuan does not sign a contract with any website, just using the [Shikou Xuan] official account to update, the effect will be very explosive.
But the actual situation is that other websites are keeping a close eye on Shikouxuan. Once Shikouxuan does not sign a contract with Qidu Novel Network, they will definitely come in droves.
The conditions given by these websites are even higher than those of Qidu Novel Network. It is impossible for Ye Xuan to give up the entire forest for the big tree of Qidu Novel Network.
Moreover, the model that Ye Xuan will follow in the future will not allow him to hang on a tree. Omni-channel is an inevitable trend, which is unstoppable.
"Ye Xuan, to be honest, Qidu Novel Network is a very good platform with sufficient resources and strength. If it were another platform, it probably wouldn't be able to reach this level."
"I hope you can think about it carefully. After all, cooperation is beneficial to both parties..."
Before Li Hui finished speaking, Ye Xuan interrupted.
"Editor, I have decided not to sign. I have my own plans. If there is an opportunity to cooperate again in the future." After Ye Xuan said this, he hung up the phone.
Ye Xuan has made his attitude clear. If the leader of Qidu Novel Network insists on removing "Dou Po" from the shelves, he will be fine with it.
After all, all the copyrights of "Dou Po" are in the hands of Ye Xuan, and Qidu Novel Network has taken it off the shelves, so he can publish it on other platforms, and other platforms will definitely welcome it.
Li Hui looked at his phone and sighed heavily for a long time. To be honest, he valued Ye Xuan very much. If he could, he would modify some of the terms in the Supreme Agreement, but he did not have the power.
"Forget it, since I can't change this, let's do whatever it takes." Li Hui smiled bitterly and shook his head, and walked towards the editor-in-chief's office.
A few minutes later, Li Hui appeared in the editor-in-chief's office.
"How is it?" the editor-in-chief looked at Li Hui and said.
"He refused."
The editor-in-chief's face suddenly turned ugly, his eyes were filled with anger, and he stood up from his chair angrily.
"Hmph, isn't Juguchi Genya too arrogant? Just because "Doupo" became popular, he feels that his wings have become stronger and that he can fly solo without any problem?"
"It's really arrogant and ignorant. I have been in this industry for so many years, and I have developed Qidu Novel Network from a small one to the leading online literary company it is today. Am I a vegetarian?"
"I have met many great masters and many talented authors, but they are not as arrogant as Jukou Xuan. If he leaves the platform of Kaidu Novel Network, it will be like a fish leaving the water."
"He will be the last to die." The editor-in-chief said angrily. He was very dissatisfied with Jukou Xuan's actions.
"Chief Editor, I don't think there is any need to restrain him. At worst, we can just modify the contract according to his ideas. As long as Shikou Xuan is still with us at Qidu Novel Network, then we..."
"Li Hui, stop talking." The editor-in-chief waved his hand and interrupted Li Hui impatiently.
"We already compromised with him last time. If we still compromise this time, he will be even more aggressive in the future. We must keep this copyright in our hands."
"Otherwise, Chengzi and the others will be the same as Juguchigen. What will we do then?"
"We have put a lot of effort into building and developing our platform so far. You can never dominate the platform just because you become popular."
"Since Jukou Xuan insists on this, then I will remove "Dou Po" from the shelves tomorrow. I want to scare the monkeys, and I want to see what Jukou Xuan will do next."
In the opinion of the editor-in-chief, Qidu Novel Network has readers, and the reader bonding is very high, which is something other websites do not have. If Shikou Xuan leaves Kaidu Novel Network, he will definitely be doomed.
And if the website recommends a new person to fill the gap left by Jukou Xuan, then it won't be up to them.
It is precisely because of this that the editor-in-chief dares to remove "Dou Po" from the shelves. He wants other people to be alert and not to follow the rules and not to be above the platform.
"Li Hui, please go out first, I want to be quiet." The editor-in-chief said solemnly.
Li Hui nodded and then exited the office. Not long after he left the office, Totoro and other editors surrounded him.
"Editor Li, how's it going? Is Shikou Xuansongkou?" Big Totoro asked.
"No, the editor-in-chief has ordered the removal of "Dou Po" from the shelves." Li Hui said with a frown.
"hiss--"
The editors present were all shocked when they heard what Li Hui said.
"No, the editor-in-chief really removed "Dou Po" from the shelves. Why is this necessary?"
"Yes, even if Jukou Xuan doesn't sign a contract with us, there is no need to remove "Dou Po" from the shelves. This novel can still bring a lot of revenue to our website."
"I think the editor-in-chief's decision to remove "Dou Po" from the shelves is a good one. This is to scare the monkeys and let others take a look. Even if your novel is a big hit, it doesn't matter. It cannot be above the platform."
"I also support the removal and blocking of "Dou Po". This Jukou Xuan is so arrogant. He thinks his wings are stiff and wants to fly by himself. It's ridiculous. He will fall very painfully."
"That's right, without the promotion of our Qidu Novel Network, his Shikou Xuan is nothing."
"Okay, okay, everyone, please stop talking. It's getting late now. If you have nothing to do, go home, so as not to have no energy to work tomorrow." Li Hui said.
When the other editors saw what Li Hui said, they could only go back to their seats to pack their things, and then left the company.
"Editor Li, why don't you try your best?" Da Totoro looked at Li Hui and said.
"It's useless. The attitude of the editor-in-chief and Shikou Xuan is very tough. They won't give in. Why should I ask for trouble? Anyway, I can just do my job well." Li Hui said.
