Chapter 132 A Scam Carefully Planned by a Big Shot!

Qidian Copyright Department.

Recently, the manager of the copyright department has been a little worried.

Poor performance, unable to sell works.

Especially last month, in December, there was an opportunity to facilitate a copyright transaction of 1 million.

But the author refused, and even said that his copyright was worth much more than this price. At that time, everyone was superstitious about Pu Dingle's operational ability, so they believed it directly and rejected the Golden Age Company that wanted to buy the copyright.

After waiting for a month, "Star Legend" was completed, and no other company came to look at the copyright of this book.

The manager and deputy managers of the Qidian Copyright Department began to murmur.

"Pu Ding is done. Did he miscalculate? He is blindly confident in himself and thinks that the performance of this book can be even higher? No worries about sales?"

"I have seen the data of his book. It is indeed rising. It is still rising after the book is completed, but there is still a gap compared with the books of great writers. Now that it is finished, it will soon drop."

"Alas, I really shouldn't have refused directly at the beginning. I just delayed the golden age. This kind of immortal cultivation literature can only sell comics and animation copyrights. Don't even think about film and television dramas. Recently, several domestic companies that are capable of producing immortal heroes and animations have some copyrights on hand, which are enough for them to develop. I tried to promote it a few days ago, but it didn't work."

"Yes, now it's awkward. When the performance is not enough, it has sold 1 million less. ”

“He is just an author after all, and there is a gap between him and professionals like us. He should have been more confident and persuaded him to sell it.”

“Yes, we made a classic mistake, listening to the author’s advice in our professional field. Just like when an author writes a book, if readers make various suggestions for revisions, if he makes changes according to the comments, 9 out of 10 books will fail, and the other one will barely survive.”

“Yes, readers don’t know how to write books, and if you make changes according to what he says, it is likely to fail, and you won’t be able to write in the end, and it will be a hasty eunuch. It’s the same for us. We listened to Pu Dinglele’s nonsense, which resulted in not only not selling at a high price, but also not earning 1 million in copyright fees.”

“It’s so uncomfortable!”

They need performance!

"No, I'm going to call editor Xiaoxing to say hello. He was the one who instigated this!"

"That's right, let him find a way to ask Pu Dingle when there will be a turnaround. If his book doesn't sell, it will fall out of the top 20 on the bestseller list and become cheaper day by day."

As we all know, capitalists make profits by cashing out at high points.

The current performance is the peak of "Star Legend", which is still in the top ten of the bestseller list. If it is delayed for a while, it will drop to 20th, 30th, or even lower, and the price will be lower day by day.

Xiaoxing received a call from the copyright department.

Shaked his head.

"Panned, you panicked."

"If Pu Dingle was not absolutely sure, how could he say that? That was the first time he was so excited. I could feel Pu Dingle's anger even through the screen. At that time, before the book was finished, if the price was really right, why would he refuse?"

"Do you think he deliberately held back his royalties before the book was finished, so that he wouldn't make more money?"

"Think about it and you'll know it's impossible!"

"Pu Dingle must have a reason for taking action! We have to analyze, figure it out, and consider the problem from his perspective, so that we can learn a little bit from this operation master. You won't forget Pu Dingle's god-level advertising operation so quickly, right?"

The people in the copyright department were silent.

"Queshi. We are anxious, but the performance is not good now. We urgently need to sell something this month. Without a profit of 1 million, the whole department will have to starve. There is really no other way. You are the person who knows Pu Dingle best at Qidian. Can you see where the best time is?"

Xiaoxing pondered for a while.

"Wait, Pu Dingle will lay the groundwork before he does anything. Every time when everyone thinks he can't turn the tables, he will come up with a magical stroke, instantly reverse the situation, turn the impossible into possible, and get the maximum profit in one fell swoop."

"The word-of-mouth reversal of "Urban Son-in-law Dragon King" is like this, and so is "Rural Rogue Divine Doctor". I feel that this book will be soon."

"Okay, okay."

After hanging up the phone, the copyright department began to doubt themselves.

"Although what Xiaoxing said does make sense, this book is already finished. When will Pu Dingle start the operation?"

Melancholy.

There are always a few days every month when I feel uncomfortable.

At this time, an employee of the copyright department suddenly shouted: "Fuck! Everyone, look at Long Kong, "Star Legend" is popular!"

General Manager of the Copyright Department: (*゜ー゜*)

"Ah?"

Some people feel uncomfortable when they see others living comfortably.

Pu Jie didn't know who he had offended, and was scolded again.

This time the other party was not like Shadow Night Cat and Zhao Xin, who just vented their dissatisfaction and disgusted the author.

This time, the person is going to give Pu Jie a hard time.

Qidian's bestseller list, as the most valuable list on the website, has credibility in the industry and represents the influence among Qidian readers.

Some film and television entertainment companies are used to looking for works on the bestseller list to see if they meet the adaptation conditions.

If it is appropriate, they will negotiate with Qidian's copyright department.

Among them, books that are often in the top ten of the bestseller list will naturally get more attention from companies.

Books of the same quality, one ranked 12th on the bestseller list and the other ranked in the top ten, receive completely different levels of attention.

This is the head effect.

"Legend of the Stars" has stayed on this list for a full three months without falling off. Some companies with IP copyright needs have naturally noticed it.

But they were all persuaded to retreat.

Because of a post.

I don’t know where it came from that the comic + animation copyright of "Legend of the Stars" was not sold for 1 million, this post came out.

"Real Hammer Qidian's best-selling work "Legend of the Stars" is a scam carefully planned by a big brush! 》

"In recent months, an extremely bad brushing incident has occurred in Qidian. The most influential bestseller list of Qidian has been occupied by a crazy brusher for three full months!"

"This person is Pu Ding! And his book "Legend of the Stars"!"

"He took this crappy book from being out of the top 100 on the bestseller list all the way to the top 10 in the bestseller list. In less than a month, he couldn't do it so fast on a rocket! I have screenshots here to prove it. This is his result in early September. Not to mention the top 100 on the best-seller list, not even the 200th place. This was achieved in mid-September. I climbed all the way to the top 20 on the best-seller list. After that, it became even more exaggerated. In early October, in order to compete for the list, I directly brushed up the list. Top ten! (Screenshot.jpg)”

(Click to load image.)

"It has been in the top ten of the best-selling list in October, November and December, and the brush has never stopped."

"You may say that maybe the grades have gone up after he came and recommended it? Then, let's follow me to reveal the true identity of this brush!"

"1. The number of fans who read "Legend of the Stars" is huge! Is it because there are so many people who read his books? No! It's because these are mass-produced accounts by Brush Studio, and each account has sign-ins and activities. I accumulated some coins by grabbing red envelopes, and then gave them to this book. If you don’t believe me, did you find that there are a large number of ‘digital name’ numbers when you look at the fan names that have been decided? This is the distinguishing feature of the machine number. Change the name and use it directly! Most of their subscription books only have 3 books. Is this the logic of normal people? So, most of his data is like this. The machine number brought it, which confirms the fact that he spent money to improve his grades!”

"2. Let's take a look at the comment section of "Legend of the Stars". It's full of bad reviews! It's the kind that even the operating officer can't delete. After entering, almost all of them are negative reviews, even if he added some comments and pinned a few good ones to the top. Posts can't hide the fact that most book lovers can't stand this book. The voice of the audience can best reflect the true reputation of a book. Do you believe that this kind of criticized work is selling well? I don’t believe it anyway!”

"3. Finally, let's look at the content of "Legend of the Stars". Let's not say it is absolutely rubbish. At least it is an online article without any connotation. This kind of quality is extremely different compared with the other nine books in the top ten bestsellers. Big gap! I believe we old book friends can see this at a glance. Of course, this is also the reason why everyone is criticizing his book. It is just that the writing is too poor, let alone a best-seller of this kind. It’s in the top ten, even if it’s in the top 500, it’s hard work!”

"Then the question is, why did Pu Ding print his book? Is it purely to disgust other authors and readers?"

"Of course not! He has great plans!"

“I heard from a friend in the industry that their company was once recommended by a director to check out the copyright of this book. Due to the reputation, and because this book has been on the best-seller list, I thought the subscription was good, so I was prepared to spend the money. He bought the rights to his comics and animations for 1 million yuan, but guess what? Pu Ding refused! He said the book was much more than that price!"

"It was only then that I realized that Pu Ding was not only trying to deceive the author and readers, but his biggest purpose was actually to trick the film and television company into buying his copyright!"

"As for why he didn't sell for 1 million? The reason is very simple. It's not enough to recoup the capital. He couldn't sell it at a high price, and he couldn't get back the money he spent for three months, so he naturally refused and said such harsh words at the same time. , trying to lure some film and television companies who don’t know the truth to buy it.”

"Haha, Pu Ding is really playing a good card. Unfortunately, I have seen through it a long time ago. Readers, authors and big companies, please don't be fooled by this kind of book that relies solely on brushing up. Keep your eyes open. Ah friend!”

In this post, the direct battle was fought by name and surname, and Pu Ding, who had some reputation in Longkong, was torn apart.

It’s full of highlights and highlights.

The melon-eaters had an instant orgasm. Is there any more exciting post than this?

So, it instantly became the most popular post!

And people in the circle also knew about this from various channels.

For a time, public opinions abounded.
