"Weiwei, do you want to go to the company with me today?"
Bai Shanshan knocked on the door of Ding Wei's room: "I'm going to take a photo of my sister-in-law's studio. Isn't "Call of the Guardians" currently on the air? It is said that the peripherals are very popular, but the target customers are mainly children.
I think this is too one-sided.”
Not only do you need to shoot, but you also need to complete today's weight loss task. At the same time, you also need professionals to teach you various skills such as editing and retouching in post-production...
Everyone is very busy this holiday.
But if you think about it carefully, you don’t have much leisure time during the holidays in middle and high school anyway, so it’s quite natural to be the way you were before returning to college?
At the very least, the three of them have now accepted it whether they like it or not.
…
"So..." Ding Wei was still typing, without raising her head: "Why did you ask me to come over?"
Bai Shanshan came over and squeezed onto her stool.
Here, I can only be thankful once again that Bai Fushan has a lot of money and the computer chair she bought is quite spacious.
"Go and stay with me. Aren't good sisters supposed to stay together?"
Ding Wei:……
"hehe."
Nowadays, this term has not become popular, let alone talking about it.
But the amazing thing is that Bai Shanshan actually heard the irony in these two words.
But it seems like an illusion?
She decided to skip the important point.
"I don't think this is okay. You see, we didn't open the company to make money. The main purpose is to build a reputation..."
"etc."
Ding Wei stopped her fingers and turned to look at Bai Shanshan: "Your main purpose in the beginning was not to collect stamps... Ah, that's wrong. Isn't it to sign contracts with all kinds of good-looking celebrities to create a harmonious and healthy small world in the entertainment industry?"
Bai Shanshan:......
Having said that, there is no need to say it directly like this.
Is there any harmonious and healthy small world in the entertainment industry? Isn't this really a mockery? She just wanted to collect beauties from the beginning.
She coughed and tried to keep her face straight: "What you said are all old ideas from the past. I was young and ignorant back then, but now I have grown up and my thinking level is different."
Ding Wei:(ー_ー)!!
"In short, our goal now is to build a reputation so that when people see our company's works, they must be high-quality products!"
"well said!"
Ding Wei Seal applauded:
"What does that have to do with you going to shoot your sister-in-law's studio?"
Bai Shanshan glanced at her: "Did you not listen to me carefully at first?"
Ding Wei:……
I am writing at a critical juncture. Who can bear to listen to other people's words? External interference is just a passing thing.
But you can't say that.
She said seriously: "I listened, but you haven't explained it yet."
…
Bai Shanshan sighed: "I think "Call of the Guardians" is very good-looking. I watch it seriously every day. So I think the target customer group should not be limited to children, so I want to take some photos specifically.
At that time, I will join forces with the publicity and distribution department to do a promotion, analyzing the beautiful props and costumes in "Call of the Guardians" frame by frame."
Humph, just for this reason, I can’t believe that young people nowadays don’t like it!
Promotion?
Ding Wei was stunned for a while before she realized that the promotion these days is not some kind of open-screen advertisement. The most likely way is to do some small advertisements in forums and various TV stations.
But don’t underestimate forums and forums. There are quite a lot of people active there, and almost 90% of them are young people.
There is no need to filter, they are the best target group for Bai Shanshan’s boxing combo!
She nodded in praise:
"Okay, that's a good idea."
By the way, speaking of promotion, she suddenly remembered that after "From the Deep" is finished, the website seems to be organizing a fan fiction contest?
"I completely forgot to follow up——"
She said "ah" and switched to the browser. Bai Shanshan looked at her and finally sighed:
"Oh, forget it. You have your own career, so naturally you don't take your good sisters seriously. I'm leaving."
Today's Bai Fushan is no longer the innocent and cute little girl she used to be. She is full of capitalist routines.
Ding Wei is full of intelligence.
"No, I can tell you this, right? Don't you take your good sisters seriously now? I'm doing fan promotion, but you don't even accompany me?"
Bai Shanshan spoke plausibly:
"I have serious things to do. Besides, you can't handle a small promotion by yourself? We just happened to be separated. You will do this, and I will do that!"
After saying that, he went out in a hurry.
The next second, the door opened again.
"Weiwei, just drive me there. I'm too lazy to ask someone from the company to pick me up."
It is impossible to take a taxi by yourself. Walking out of the community, the sun is so bright.
Ding Wei snorted and proudly picked up the car keys.
…
Xiaoguang was well maintained by Ding Wei under Chen Siyu's advice. It is still brand new and is parked downstairs.
To be honest, a Wuling Hongguang in front of such a high-end community is indeed a bit out of place.
But fortunately, none of the three people paid attention to this, so even though the neighbors always looked at the car twice when they came and went, Ding Wei was still very proud when she drove out:
Humph, you were so arrogant and said it so harshly, but in the end you didn’t even drive yourself to deliver it!
pride(???)
…
"By the way, when does Siyu plan to come back?"
It's been several days since she left, and she hasn't asked many questions as she has been working on a manuscript these days. Siyu seems to be quite busy as well, and doesn't have much time online every day.
But Bai Shanshan should be able to get some information from her sister-in-law.
Bai Shanshan shook her head: "I originally planned to come back in a week, but she seems to be learning pattern making and process from two masters on the production line, and she won't be able to come back for a while."
Ding Wei was silent for a moment, then nodded: "It's good. After you understand it, you will know what to do."
Bai Shanshan was silent for a moment:
"Actually, I think her focus now should not be on high-quality production lines, but she should find ways to promote the online store, make small profits but quick turnover, and strive to collect funds quickly and efficiently."
"Um?"
Ding Wei looked at the road ahead and couldn't help but question.
When it comes to online clothing stores, both of them are actually laymen.
Ding Wei gave advice because she had the perspective of a previous life, but Bai Shanshan gave advice because she had a broader vision of things than the two of them.
There is no way around this. The starting point of birth is the end point that others cannot reach in their lifetime. As long as you put a little effort, you can always have new views from different angles.
Although she rarely gives suggestions, she always gets to the point every time she speaks. Ding Wei also knows that this is the importance of family education.
For an ordinary reborn like her, if she comes back a hundred times, she will only gain more knowledge and experience. She may not be able to catch up with this kind of career sensitivity.
At this moment, she listened carefully to Bai Shanshan's thoughts.
…
"Didn't you notice?"
Bai Shanshan fiddled with the camera on her chest and said casually:
"I thought you already had mature ideas when you suggested to her that we should create a popular model that is cheap and everyone wants to buy it."
Ding Wei laughed.
"I don't have any mature ideas. I have never opened an online store. I just made this suggestion from the perspective of a spectator. Siyu is the one who really makes the decision."
Bai Shanshan nodded.
"I think so too."
"Since the Chinese New Year this year, our school has been receiving more and more express delivery. I heard that several schools are already discussing with the school to directly enter the campus. This means that more and more young people are shopping online."
Ding Wei immersed herself in studying, and Chen Siyu did not give in too much. On the contrary, Bai Shanshan went out regularly to shoot videos, take photos and post, so she had a wider contact than them.
"But I also saw the items sold by major stores on the website. There are basically no physical stores, so the prices are definitely not as high-end as the physical stores, so we can quickly gain an advantage in the short term."
After all, no one can resist the mentality of hunting for bargains.
"In this case, I feel that Siyu is not in a hurry to develop quality and reputation in the past two years, but to increase sales as soon as possible and earn a lot of money."
"When express delivery really becomes popular in every household, I believe that the physical industry will be greatly affected. In the end, unless the express delivery ball is stopped, they will have to integrate it."
Bai Shanshan herself also likes to go shopping on Taobao when she has nothing to do. She is very fond of the specialties and small items from various places.
"But I guess the possibility of integrating into it is relatively high. After all, it is so convenient to buy things online. You only need to search, place an order and wait for express delivery. Unpacking the express delivery also feels like searching for treasures, which is more direct than in a physical store.
Shopping feels much better.”
Although sometimes the purchase may not be suitable, isn’t it possible to return it?
She said these words in a matter-of-fact tone, as if they were just unconscious thoughts in her spare time.
However, these thoughts alone made Ding Wei squeeze the steering wheel so excitedly that she couldn't help but pat her hands.
——Following her train of thought, no wonder I could only be a finance person in my previous life and was not very good at financial management. Look at this level, look at this vision...
In those novels, the ordinary protagonist kills everyone instantly as soon as he is reborn. I was so stupid when I thought I loved reading such books.
Even if Einstein is not reborn, he is still Einstein. A great man who stays in the village all his life, even if he is reborn ten times, will only be able to cultivate his fields better.
Ding Wei:……
Cried.
It is so cruel to suddenly realize that I am a loser.
…
Bai Shanshan didn't notice anything at all, and even laughed as she said:
"When express delivery is fully developed, Siyu can apply for another store and attract customers from this store. On the one hand, we will still focus on small profits but quick turnover, and on the other hand, we will start to focus on reputation and quality."
"This way, there will be no delay, and a large number of mid- to high-end and low-end customers will not be lost. Isn't this better?"
Ding Wei:……
"Yes." She replied weakly, "That's great."
"Then why didn't you tell Siyu?"
Bai Shanshan smiled shyly:
"What's there to say? This is just my personal opinion. The real boss is Siyu. She should have some ideas of her own."
"Look, isn't she staying over at the production line? I don't believe she hasn't learned anything else in half a month."
…
Ding Wei was speechless.
What should I do? I suddenly feel that I am not very good at economics, and I need to study more later.
She had to make arrangements for the suggestion mentioned by the two teachers before during the holidays.
Let’s go to the bookstore and buy books directly later!
…
Ding Wei sent Bai Shanshan to Xinghai Film and Television, then turned back and drove to Yunxiao Tower. On the way, she stopped at Xinhua Bookstore and picked out a book.
Ding Wei put a stack of five red-covered information books on the car and then went upstairs.
It's been a while, but under the guidance of Chen Qinghe, the headquarters of Dreamweaver Literature Network has become more upscale and formal.
There are two receptionists at the door, one of whom is constantly working on the computer, and the other is sorting the pile of express delivery in front of him one by one.
Most of the documents were delivered by express delivery, presumably from the contracts signed by the authors.
Seeing Ding Wei enter the door, the two of them immediately stood up:
"Hello, Mr. Ding."
This sudden address made Ding Wei stunned for a moment.
She didn't deliberately hide her identity, but she didn't expect Wang Qinghe to do such a good job. The front desk at the door had already informed him... The last time he came, he hadn't recruited anyone yet.
She was a little embarrassed when she became the president for the first time, but she couldn't seem too confident, lest no one would listen to her words in the future.
So Mr. Ding tried his best to tighten his face, straighten his body, and replied concisely:
"Um."
I'm still thinking, since it's so hot, I'll buy two watermelons and send them over soon!
Only when she went upstairs did she realize that her thoughts were unnecessary.
…
The five-hundred-square-meter floor can't even fill up the workstations, so a tea room was specially separated. Through the transparent glass of the fresh-keeping cabinet, you can still see three big green watermelons inside.
Wang Qinghe happened to pass by the tea room and saw Ding Wei looking blankly at the things in the crisper. At this moment, he raised his eyebrows:
"Want to eat watermelon? I just put it in, it's not cold enough."
"Xiao Wu!"
He shouted to his assistant: "Remember to cut the watermelon into half at eleven o'clock. It's quite hot."
"okay!"
The assistant agreed without any hesitation, and it seemed that this was not the first time he had eaten it.
After Wang Qinghe finished his explanation, he turned around and saw Ding Wei's complex expression, and couldn't help but laugh: "What? Are you feeling distressed?"
Ding Wei shook her head: "No, how much does a watermelon cost... I just think I think too much."
Look at the fresh-keeping cabinet. There are not only watermelons, but also grapes! There are also cookies, snacks, and candies in the storage cabinet next to it.
Looking over there, there are all kinds of scented tea, milk and coffee on the tea table, and there is even a microwave.
This tea room is really well done.
It's not like Ding Wei had never enjoyed such a tea room in her previous life, but she never thought of such a thing when the website was first launched.
Sure enough, it is more reliable to do things professionally.
…
Wang Qinghe saw the look in her eyes and thought that he, an ordinary college student, could not accept such a luxurious working environment, so he explained: "These are standard features of large companies."
"Some employees in our company live quite far away, especially those in the programming department. They live close by, but they don't like to be active. They are here all day long. Sometimes they forget to eat while writing code. It is very convenient to have a microwave."
After thinking for a while, he said: "I purchased it last month. Didn't you read the purchase order carefully?"
Haven’t you read the financial statements?
Ding Wei looked depressed: "I was preparing for the exam last month."
In fact, it is not about preparing for the exam, but because I have not yet escaped the joint oppression of several professors.
Wang Qinghe smiled: "Okay, if you're lazy, just ask someone from the accounting firm to check it out at the end of the year."
Ding Wei nodded: "This is a good idea."
It's just not necessary.
As long as the financial guy has the opportunity to break away from the data, he would rather die than touch it. But if the website is new, whether it can make a profit this year is still two different things. So we hired a firm specifically for this small accounting...
It's not necessary, it's not necessary.
…
There is a distance between the tea room and the editors' workstations. Since it is an online job, most of the editors recruited are quite young.
Only the man with a separate work station in the corner looked to be in his forties or fifties.
Ding Wei was so far away that she didn't see the position card, so she asked curiously:
"Where did you invite that person?"
Wang Qinghe handed her a cup of jasmine tea.
"Introduced by your previous editor, colleagues from their unit have very strong business capabilities. They have only been here for one month and have already helped negotiate publishing contracts for two works."
"No, today is obviously the weekend. He didn't think it was convenient to check the contract at home, so he just came to the company to work."
Nowadays, part-time editors are especially responsible for copyright operations. There is no requirement to be present in this regard.
The website editor is in another area.
…
Although the prices of the two books that I am willing to buy the copyright for are not too high, the rankings of the two books themselves are not too high either, so both the author and the publisher are happy.
Editor Su received the bonus alone, so his fighting spirit was naturally even higher.
Now I have taken a look at the top few male-video novels in the rankings and am determined to make a big operation.
"Then doesn't his and Guo Mu's operating scope overlap?"
It is not a good thing for two editors to compete for the right to operate the same book. Instead, they will start a price war with each other and cause unnecessary losses.
"No."
Wang Qinghe smiled: "When we first recruited editors, we had already divided the work according to the book number. The book number ends in 135 or 246, and they are divided into different chief editors. Whoever has the book will be responsible for it.
.”
"fine."
Ding Wei nodded: "If the publication is negotiated, the reputation of our website will be very different, right?"
"Not that much."
Wang Qinghe led her to the office.
Because Ding Wei couldn't come here to work every day, she didn't ask for a separate office. If anything happened, she communicated with Wang Qinghe and left.
After all, in terms of professionalism, she is really not as good as these talents.
"Publishing is just an intention. The contract has been signed, but some other details still need to be communicated. There is still a long way to go. So there is no announcement for the time being. We will announce it when we choose a suitable time."
The publishing price of the three books is not high. Wang Qinghe believes that there is no need to publicize it now. It is better to accumulate a few more books and make big news, and win by quantity.
Speaking of the right time, Ding Wei remembered the key point she wanted to ask today: "Has the previous fan competition for "From the Deep Sea" started?"
Wang Qinghe looked a little helpless: "Are you so busy going to college? You don't even have time to look at the website carefully... This call for essays was already released on the day of the finale."
"I saw it." Ding Wei quickly explained.
In fact, she forgot about it and actively made up for the lessons before going out, but she didn't know what the current situation of the call for papers was.
"Don't worry about that."
Wang Qinghe waved his hand: "Anyway, the bonus you set in the end will never be wasted."
That's OK.
It has been so long that Ding Wei can no longer remember what kind of bonus standard she gave.
But even if he gave it to himself, Wang Qinghe would probably have made adjustments based on the actual situation.
She said she didn't care about things, she just didn't care about things. The bosses above made it even more difficult to carry out their work. Now they just need to understand the general direction.
…
"By the way, how much does a website author earn each month now?"
"That's not necessarily the case."
Wang Qinghe shook his head: "There is no basic salary in this industry, and people rely on talent."
Although there are attendance standards, some people don't even bother to take attendance, so there's nothing we can do about it.
"Some of them are worse, they can't even make a few yuan a month. But those in the top 50 can earn at least two thousand yuan a month."
In this day and age, this data is not bad.
"What about the top ten?"
Ding Wei specifically looked at the list before coming here. The previous works on the list have maintained their consistent standards. Only the rankings have changed slightly, but overall the results are quite stable.
The worst one is probably the book "My Life in the Ocean".
She glanced at Wang Qinghe with a complicated expression——
Alas, becoming a president will probably affect your writing future!
Wang Qinghe only updated an average of 2,000 words per day this month, and now he has fallen to the bottom of the top ten.
In contrast, the author of "The Glory of Ceylon" is an update maniac, writing 20,000 words a day, and has been doing so for two months.
What is there not to like about an author like this?
Wang Qinghe handed her a table: "I knew you were curious... Take a look. This is the salary table for this month that has just been calculated by the finance office."
The number one ranking is “online access”.
"Glory of Ceylon: The Rise of the Alchemist"
Subscription revenue: 25,000
Ticket reward: 10000.
Readers’ reward share: 8500.
Diligence reward: 1000.
"It's almost fifty thousand!"
Ding Wei was surprised and said: "Reward 8500?" Did she have any misunderstanding about the genuine readers of this era?
"Well," Wang Qinghe smiled: "In fact, the income of the top twenty authors in this list will not be low, because there is a rich reader on the website, and all the books she has read, and she thinks are of good quality, are
The reward is 10,000 yuan."
"The subscription share of our website is 37 yuan, but the reward items are 55 yuan. In this way, each author can get a guaranteed minimum of 5,000 yuan."
"Moreover, as our website's reputation grows and its data becomes stable, the income of the top authors is gradually increasing every month. A monthly income of 50,000 yuan is far from the end, it is probably the starting point of the era of online literature.
"
Wang Qinghe was full of confidence when he said this.
Ding Wei believed this.
When she was reading in her previous life, she heard that the top-ranked men's novels on the website earned one or two million a month, which was quite stable.
In comparison, a monthly income of 50,000 is indeed a starting point.
In any case, when the author's income is stable, it will stimulate his passion for writing.
At this moment she let out a long sigh: "Finally we have a good start."
Of course, there is still a long way to go before we break even, but in any case, this is already much better than expected.
…
Ding Wei looked down and found that the female channel "Ping Zheng" was still on the list, and her monthly income, stimulated by rewards, had exceeded 30,000.
“The income gap among the top ten doesn’t seem to be that big.”
Wang Qinghe nodded:
"Well, after all, they are the first batch of novels that have been carefully screened. They were the main contributors in the early stage. The good results now are accumulated step by step."
"Moreover, their update volume is not low. The worst one month's update volume is more than 250,000 words."
Ding Wei looked suspiciously at "Kunpeng", who was ranked at the bottom of the tenth place, and then at Wang Qinghe.
If she remembered correctly, this guy should have only updated 100,000 words last month, right?
How come your income is more than 20,000 yuan?
When Wang Qinghe saw her gaze, he straightened his back involuntarily, reached out and casually brushed the hair on his forehead, looked forward, and was extremely calm:
"As a famous author on the list, I can't let my data be too far off, so I also rewarded myself 10,000 yuan."
Ding Wei:……
She doesn’t quite understand the world of rich people!
but……
She smiled, trying her best to ignore Wang Qinghe's reddish ears, and now said seriously: "You are so rich," Wang Qinghe also dragged the topic back to the main point:
"The website has improved, and the bonuses are real money. Now some people are starting to use plug-ins to participate in voting, subscribe, and increase data."
"In addition, piracy is also very serious. It is spread everywhere in Tieba. Without them, I am afraid that the income of the novel can be doubled."
This kind of thing has always been forbidden.
Ding Wei frowned.
“To combat piracy, we cannot just rely on our internal employees to prevent piracy. Although it is difficult, it must be long-term and sustainable.
Wang Qinghe nodded proudly: "There is already a plan in this regard. In addition, you don't have to worry about plug-ins to brush data. We have a screening mechanism inside the website, a small literature website, and eight programmers. This is not an invitation to eat.
A jobber."
He thought to himself: Those people who brush up the data are so shameless. I can't keep my tenth place. I can't tolerate it no matter what!
Ding Wei couldn't help laughing when she thought of the rent she had received this month.
"What do you mean? Eight isn't enough?"
"Of course not enough."
Wang Qinghe said sternly: "The website cannot always only have these simple pages. The more people there are, the more unstable it will be. We want to become bigger and stronger, and we will definitely not be able to rely on these alone. But there is no need to eat up a fat man in one bite. I will look at these.
Just do it."
"That's okay."
Apart from these, website development only needs to be carried out step by step, and there are no other major issues that need to be discussed seriously.
Seeing that Wang Qinghe's plans were always very confident, Ding Wei couldn't help but flip through the forms provided by the finance department.
Turn to the next page and see Lao Wang’s income.
Mathematics Mistaken Me "Poetry and Wen Tao"
Subscription income: 6000
Ticket reward: 2500
Readers’ reward share: 12500
Diligence reward: 1000
She couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"The reward income is twelve thousand five thousand?"
Are today’s genuine readers really so powerful?
…
Wang Qinghe was almost elated:
"A big customer of our website may be the only one who loves this book. This is the only novel that gave him a reward of 20,000 yuan."
The top fifty books on the list have all received awards to some extent.
New books have been added to the library, and novels that have just been signed are getting a lot of rewards.
It just feels too average, as if every book has the same reward... Looking at the background data, some books don't even have subscriptions.
What is this picture of?
Are the thoughts of rich people so difficult to understand now?
Wang Qinghe calculated his savings and assets... Seriously, there should be a common language. Why is this wave of operations like casting a net, he still can't understand!
Ding Wei was really shocked. Lao Wang’s book was less than 500,000 words!
She couldn't help but think of Bai Shanshan.
Thinking about it, this sister has already found Lao Wang.
Have a vision, have a vision.
After struggling all morning, Ding Wei once again confirmed that she did not need to worry about the development of the website at all. Wang Qinghe had too many ideas.
She breathed a sigh of relief and finally just urged the other party to work hard to discuss cooperation and open more recharge channels.
Apart from that, I can really be a hands-off shopkeeper.
…
Carrying the book and returning to Bai Shanshan's house, Ding Wei looked at the red-covered "Selected Works of Mao Zedong" and couldn't help but yawn.
The so-called sleepiness in spring, autumn, and winter make you take a nap, and summer is just the right time to sleep...
But no!
How can you use your youth and your wonderful time to doze off?
She picked up the blank notebook, ready to take notes, and opened the first page with great effort.
Two economics professors unanimously recommended that you should read "Selected Works of Mao Zedong" completely.
Not to mention anything else, "The Theory of Contradiction" alone can already deal with everything from family affairs to national affairs.
Reading this book and understanding this book will bring endless pleasure.
With such a high evaluation, even though Ding Wei thought it must be boring, she still made up her mind to study.
After all, during this period of intense study, the more she studied, the more she felt that her knowledge reserve was not enough. She tried her best to keep her eyes wide open and read the lines of text——
Isn’t it just chewing raw?
Materialization, life, politics, history and places, what is there that students haven’t chewed on?
It must work!
She took a deep breath and put on the headphones directly.
