Chapter 408 We Need to Think of a New Approach

Qidian International Novel Online is online.

Half a month later than expected.

But under internal pressure, it was still online.

Whether it is the sense of crisis brought by the rapid development of Zhongshan International, or the urgent need of many masters to publish works on the international novel platform.

Good translation is very difficult to find, but after spending a lot of money to search the industry, Qidian still found several good translators who can translate 5 works of masters simultaneously.

These 5 places have also become the main competition for Qidian masters in the near future.

There are too many monks and little meat.

Everyone wants to be the first to follow Qidian International to eat meat.

Although they started a few months later than Zhongshan International, they have the strong Qidian Group as a backing, so there is no need to worry about traffic problems.

Finally, after many discussions and decisions within Qidian, 5 books were decided.

Among them, 3 books are completed works of masters, and 2 books are serialized works, with more than 2 million words.

These 5 books are all to be trump cards.

The editor-in-chief of the first group, Kaonai, was in charge of this matter. He looked at the newly launched Qidian International Novel Network, where 5 books were hung alone, and sighed.

"Let's calm everyone down first. Recently, Zhongshan International has seen a surge in royalties, giving many old authors extra royalties, and there is still a lot of popularity. They are all jealous. It's normal. Who doesn't want their books to be famous overseas? I heard that Zhongshan International has already contacted foreign film and television companies to develop copyrights."

The editor-in-chief of the second group, Youhun, said: "It's a stopgap measure. We are hastily launching now, with only 5 books, and the number of words is so small. There is no way to compete with Zhongshan International. Let's stabilize the big names first, otherwise they will all clamor to open Zhongshan International channels, and we won't be able to live. And some good books that are very popular with the market have been translated by Zhongshan International first. If it weren't for the fact that Qidian has been a big family for so many years, it would really be a headache."

Fortunately, Qidian has enough books, and the translators who can translate novels in the industry now can't translate all the good works in their lifetime.

Not to mention the Chinese online literature market where hundreds of millions of words are created every day.

The launch of Qidian International has temporarily solved the problem of the great writers. Not only can they get subscription fees, but if they can also sell copyrights abroad, then they will really gain both fame and fortune.

The most important thing is that this does not require extra effort, just the website can do it.

The great writers sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

But more and more low-level authors are depressed because the Zhongshan novel channel cannot be opened.

You know, a large number of people have already opened it, and their books can make a little money more or less.

For the bottom-level authors, a few hundred yuan a month is also very good.

However, there has been no news about the re-launch of the Zhongshan novel channel authorization.

A storm is slowly brewing.

Mr. Pu finished writing 10,000 words today in the office and was happily preparing to go off work.

"This book is getting smoother and smoother. 10,000 words in 3 hours a day is simply a breeze!"

Mr. Pu knows the background of World of Warcraft like the back of his hand.

Just write a dungeon, let the protagonist go in and show off his power, and finally get a bunch of equipment, and that's 10,000 words.

It's so easy!

Although this is not the worst book Pu has written, it is the smoothest one he has written.

There is no creative bottleneck at all!

All kinds of plots come to mind.

With so many years of game experience as a backing, he is no different from directly copying.

"At present, as long as the protagonist Sun Can's golden finger, that is, the uniqueness of the game ring, can be guaranteed that Sun Can can be superior at every stage, and then pretend to be awesome and slap his face, and continue to push the plot, I can write 5 million words without any problem!"

Now, Pu has written 1.8 million words for this book "The Almighty Druid in Online Games".

There are still 700,000 words to be completed.

"Two months, just a little more writing will be enough."

This book is quite standard, with an average subscription of just over 30,000 on this site. It doesn't make much money, but because of the high share of Zhongshan Novels and the support of Zhongshan International, new media, WeChat public accounts and other channels, it won't be too little.

The monthly royalties from various channels add up to more than 500,000.

Among them, the money paid by domestic new media channels is very good. Last month, the royalties from new media channels were 100,000!

Facts have proved that online game articles are a niche and popular subject in new media channels.

The first batch of online game articles that Zhongshan Novels solicited performed well in new media channels. The authors all earned a sum of money that they could not earn even if they wrote until they died on Qidian. The channel royalties for some works are comparable to a book with 10,000 subscriptions on Qidian.

Zhongshan Novels has expanded new themes for new media novels. It turns out that online game articles can also harvest a large number of new readers.

Among them, they are mainly teenagers aged 14 to 20, and some legendary old players aged 35+.

God knows how they would burst into tears when they saw the familiar words such as guild teaming up and national war appear in the novel.

This reminded them of the Internet cafe under the sunset that day, which was their lost youth.

Pu Jie's online game article is not as good as "Infinite Time and Space", but it is much better than "Star Legend".

Pu Jie certainly knows his data, and he is also a little helpless.

"The total system subsidy is 5 million. The money will be less in the first few months, and more in the later months. I estimate that there will not be much money left by then. Just do your best and leave it to fate. It is not bad to get 2 million."

Because of the desperate operation in the last cycle, Mr. Pu got more than 40 million from the system. He no longer cares about this amount of money. It can only be said that it is better than nothing.

Mr. Pu is now thinking that when he writes his next book, he must write a good story to let the world witness his true literary talent!

"According to the current progress, after losing all this cycle, I can make more than 500 million, and then I can write whatever I want in the new book. At that time, I will write for myself. I will write less every day and polish the quality carefully. It is hard to imagine that I can become popular even if I write randomly. How terrible it will be if I write seriously!"

Pu Jie's confidence swelled unprecedentedly, and he felt that he could do anything!

"But first, we must ensure that we can lose all this cycle."

Mr. Pu's eyes returned to reality.

Under his operation, 16.5 million was spent on the acquisition of Black Stone Mountain Novels during this period, 10 million was given to Xiaoxing to squander, and 6 million was used to build the Duoyu Data Center.

On the surface, 32.5 million has been spent, but in fact, as soon as the liquidation was made on the 5th of this month, Duoyu Company made another 20 million profit last month!

Almost all of it was earned by Zhongshan Novels and Zhongshan International.

Duoyu Audiobook is busy expanding its overseas market and is still burning money, barely maintaining a balance between income and expenditure; Duoyu Games is said to be busy perfecting "School Cultivation Simulator", although sales have increased, but it does not make much money; the production department has no work, so naturally it does not make money.

That is Zhongshan Novels!

Even if it has been changed to a 37% split with the author, it still makes a lot of money from advertisers.

This makes President Pu very angry!

"Damn it, there are so many companies, except Qidian, there is no one who can fight!"

At the beginning of last month, President Pu provoked 6 investment companies.

Except for Qidian, which did it for real, the others were very confusing.

Some imitated Qidian to attack Duoyu's server, and then their own computer rooms were burned down by the red panda.

Others posted articles on the Internet to condemn Duoyu, fabricating some groundless news, but Duoyu was not listed, so it was not affected at all, and no one even paid attention to them, and it had no impact on the business at all.

The most annoying thing was that an investment company sent a group of senior HRs to poach Duoyu's employees, and then Duoyu's human resources department had several more senior HRs.

Most companies did not take it seriously, so the effect was not good.

President Pu was also helpless about this. It seemed that the company had reached such a big point that ordinary verbal anger would not have any effect at all.

Look at Tengda Company, no one even paid attention to him!

"It seems that we still have to think of new ways to lose money."
