Late at night, when my father had fallen asleep, the old man's snoring was so powerful that it echoed throughout the room with every breath.
However, Zhang Zhong did not feel troubled. When he returned after forty years, he heard his father's snoring, which made him feel very friendly.
He turned on the computer and continued to write "Worry-Free Grocery Store". In the past few days, he was in the hospital and whenever he had time, he would lie in front of the computer and write the book. Half of the book was already written.
He plans to post it online today.
There are many websites that can publish articles, some are newspaper essay solicitations, and some are online novel websites.
Zhang Zhong thought for a while, and found that online literature often contained millions of words, which was really not suitable for "Jieyou Grocery Store", so he excluded all online novel websites.
The largest literary newspaper in China is "Agitation Literature", which gathers the best authors and a large number of readers in the country.
The website is not limited to serious literature or popular literature, but it is somewhat different from ordinary online novel websites. Online articles rarely have the shadow of serious literature, but the articles recruited by "Agitation Literature" are generally even if they are not serious literature, they are
There will be some hints of serious literature.
The call for essays for "Agitation Literature" is available all year round, both online and offline.
Offline, you can directly mail the manuscript to the "Agitation Literature" newspaper. Online, it is easier. You can directly create an account on the website to post the article, and after passing the review, enter the library and you can serialize it.
No matter how you look at it, online is more suitable for Zhang Zhong.
In fact, most people now choose to publish online. After all, publishing online does not affect physical publication.
In view of this, Zhang Zhong decisively chose to publish it online in "Agitation Literature". He applied for an account and then created a new work "Jieyou Grocery Store".
Only one chapter has been posted, and the website needs to be reviewed before it can be included in the database. Naturally, there are no staff to review it in the middle of the night, so we have to wait until tomorrow to know the result.
After passing the review, he can continue to publish the next chapters.
It is worth mentioning that he made some changes to "Jieyou Grocery Store". After all, it involves some things that are not common in this world. Fortunately, these things do not affect the main line of the work.
In fact, Zhang Zhong has no idea whether "Jieyou Grocery Store" can be as popular as it is on Earth. This book is undoubtedly a very good work, but literature is not a mathematical problem. One plus one must equal two.
, whether you can impress others is the key.
Besides, this book is from Neon Country, so Zhang Zhong is even more confused.
Just like Chinese people think spicy chicken is delicious, but Americans don't like it. They only like General Tso's chicken.
However, the two worlds are so similar. Even if "Jieyou Grocery Store" doesn't become a hit, there will always be people who like it.
After posting one chapter, Zhang Zhong listened to his father's call, put his hand on the keyboard again, and began to input the remaining chapters of "Jieyou Grocery Store" into the computer.
…
In the next few days, Zhang Zhong did rehabilitation at home, while his father took care of the shop and his mother went to school.
It's summer vacation now, but the class taught by Hu Huifang will be promoted to the third grade this year, so make-up classes are needed.
Only Pengpeng and Zhang Zhong were at home. The little girl was lively and talkative, so the house was not dull.
"Dad, are you a great writer? Grandma said you used to be a software engineer. What is a software engineer?"
Zhang Zhong touched his nose and thought that his mother was exaggerating too much. He was nothing but a software engineer. He was just a bachelor's degree student in software. He was far from an engineer.
Comrade Hu Huifang, you are so immodest.
"Well, dad used to be a software engineer, but now he doesn't want to be a great writer." Zhang Chongtian said shamelessly.
Pengpeng was only four and a half years old, so he didn't know that his father was bragging. He raised his arms and shouted, "Hoho, my father is a great writer. When he goes to school, he must tell Wu Taotao that his father is a university teacher. Every day
They all give me shit."
Shit... Zhang Zhong had a black line on his face. This is not a vocabulary you should know at your age. Also, my daughter, comparison is wrong.
"Well, what's the point of being a university teacher? Dad, I'm much better than a university teacher. Many universities asked me to be a teacher in the past, but I didn't even go."
Isn’t it right to compare as promised?
But Zhang Zhong did not tell lies. When he was on Earth, many schools indeed asked him to be a teacher and give lectures to students, but he refused them all.
"Yeah, daddy is the best."
Zhang Zhong has been praised by countless people, but his daughter's praise is particularly touching.
The review of "Jieyou Grocery Store" has been completed, and Zhang Zhong has also published several chapters, totaling more than 40,000 words.
There is no such thing as signing a contract or not on "Agitation Literature". When the writer applies for an account, he has already registered his name and bound the account, and signed an electronic agreement at the same time.
This agreement has divided the interests of the writer and the website, but does not involve copyright regulations.
While writers enjoy all copyrights, they can also set the charging model for their works, and they are relatively free. They can set a charge of less than ten yuan per word.
As long as Zhang Zhong is willing, he can charge ten yuan per word for all the texts he uploads.
Of course he didn't do this. This was obviously a way of digging one's own grave. Even those writers who have become famous generally do not charge for the entire article, and they still charge such a high price.
The 40,000 words written by Zhang Chong are free of charge, and the actual charges start after 40,000 words.
However, "Jieyou Grocery Store" has already published 40,000 words, but it has not made any waves in "Agitation Literature". It seems that no one has read the book yet.
Although he had expected this situation to exist before, Zhang Zhong was still a little disappointed. After all, this was the only way he could make money now.
But he has nothing else to do now, so he has this book on his plate every day.
Things turned around after he posted 70,000 words. On this day, he had just posted a chapter when a message suddenly popped up in the background. He clicked on it and saw that there were comments from readers.
Little Goldfish: [Fifth grade vegetative? Why is this name so average? The name of this book sounds good.]
Yes, it turns out he is a person who hasn’t read yet. The fifth-grade vegetative person is Zhang Zhong’s pen name. He originally wanted to use his real name, but the system prompted that it was already occupied, so he chose this name casually.
Zhang Zhong didn't take it seriously, got up and went to recover for a while, played with his daughter for a while, and returned to the computer when he felt a little tired.
The writer's homepage indicated that there were two unread messages, so he clicked on them.
One reader comment, and another - Zhang Zhong's eyes lit up, it turned out to be a coin-tossing message.
Tossing coins in "Agitation Literature" is similar to giving rewards.
[Little goldfish coin 520]
One coin is converted into Chinese coins for one penny, and a coin of 520 is equivalent to five yuan and two. Although it is not much, it makes Zhang Zhong very excited.
After the coin was inserted, the little goldfish also posted a comment.
Little Goldfish: [I have finished reading the book and said it is really good, but the author should not imitate those online novels and serialize them. It would be great to publish them all at once.]
Zhang Zhong looked backstage and saw that someone had already paid to read his paid chapter.
The charging standard he set was twenty yuan per thousand words, and he has now received three yuan for reading. It was originally six yuan, but half of it was taken away by the website.
