Chapter 923： 1 way to survive for writing

After leaving Li Shufu with a lot of mess and questions, Liu Jian flew to Shanghai with a few women of his own. Ma Huatong had been looking forward to his arrival for a long time, chasing and calling him almost every day. A few phone calls. [hand][play][bar][[][starter] There is no way that Liu Jian's idea is too big, and there are really many things to do. With Liu Jian as a ready-made master, how could he not ask.

"Brother Ma, why are you being so polite? Why did you come to pick up the plane?" Liu Jian said after seeing Ma Huatong and hugging him.

Ma Huatong glanced at the women behind Liu Jianjian, and couldn't help but sigh at the flamboyant nature of this boss. Wherever he went, there were a bunch of beauties around him. What he admired even more was that Liu Jian could deal with these women, and none of them seemed to have any contradictions. , live in peace together.

In fact, this is just the appearance he saw. Those who followed Liu Jianjian were mostly his playthings. Those women who could really cause conflicts were paid out by Liu Jian early on, and they had their own things to do. If people are busy, they don't even have enough time to sleep, so how can they have so much thought to intrigue.

In addition, Fan Junyu is not a jealous woman, trying to balance the relationship in the harem, Liu Jian can live a chic and unrestrained life like today.

"Mr. Liu, I'm waiting for your golden idea!" Ma Hua said in pain.

Liu Jian chuckled and said, "Let's go back to the company to talk!"

Back at the headquarters of Liu's Internet Group in Pudong, Shanghai, Liu Jian saw the staff coming in and out, and he was really busy. The portal network is not easy to do, and it needs a lot of editorial and technical personnel. It is really busy to recruit and train new people!

"Tell me, what's the situation now?" Liu Jian asked.

Ma Huatong turned on the computer in front of him, and logged in to the perfect homepage of Liu's Network Group. Like the traditional portal, it was full of news without any special features. The only difference is that there is a Baidu search bar, Penguin downloader and so on on the homepage.

Liu Jian frowned and said: "This is not possible, it looks like a hodgepodge! In this way, Brother Ma, the Baidu column is set under the picture on the left side of the webpage, and a search engine is left in the upper right corner to search the website. Content. We are a portal, and we cannot just do news like them. Use keywords such as news, sports, shopping, games, friends, reading, entertainment, cars, real estate, etc. to be marked in bold at the top of the page. Each of them represents us A section, one click, transfer directly to that section!"

Ma Huatong picked up a pen and wrote it down, saying: "Mr. Liu, what you said are all good words, I must record them carefully!"

"Did the novel network called it buy it!" Liu Jian asked.

Ma Huatong nodded and said: "It has been acquired, but that website is a website for online novels, and I don't see any benefits from it!"

It's no wonder that Ma Huatong didn't think about it. Even after four or five years, no one realized the huge market for online novels. After knowing that mobile phones can read novels online, the huge business opportunities contained in them were discovered.

At this time, many novel writers are just a hobby, not to mention relying on this to support their families, they can't even earn money to buy cigarettes.

Liu Jian didn't explain either, some things don't need to be said, they will understand after seeing the effect.

"Click here to read and go directly to Novel.com. For Novel.com, I think so. We want to give those who like literary creation a soil. With the continuous popularization of computers, more and more people will like to read through the Internet. Reading, instead of buying books or going to the library to read. No need to spend money, no need to apply for a library card, no need to rummage on the bookshelf, just click on the computer, there are countless novels to read, you say we How many educated netizens will be attracted. They may be students now and have little spending power, but five or ten years later, they will become the protagonists of consumption." Liu Jian said.

Ma Huatong frowned and said, "Boss Liu means to give money to authors who write online novels?"

This made him a little unacceptable. At this time, various forums and novel websites are everywhere, and there are many people who like to create. Some people just want to write their own ideas so that people can see them. money. Even charging at a certain point did not start until a few years later, when the market had a foundation, and those great Internet authors had enough supporters.

Liu Jian said: "Yes, that's what I think. Novel websites rely on these authors. They are not only the main force of novel writing, but also the mainstream people who read novels. If we keep them, we will keep our readers."

"But these people have virtual identities on the Internet. They can write whatever they want, whenever they want, and how to pay them. We can't be sure that those authors will bring us benefits!" Ma Hua Pain Road.

Liu Jian smiled and said: "I have a preliminary idea about this, and I need you to improve it. All authors who have established an author account must provide their real identity address and bank account number. We screened out the most famous authors, Sign the contract. After signing the contract, the author must guarantee the number of words updated every day and the number of words updated throughout the month. After they meet the standard, we will give them the so-called attendance bonus. For example, if the daily update is 3,000, we will give three We will give 600 to 6,000 daily changes, and 1,000 to 10,000 daily changes. In this way, these authors will have the basic guarantee of life and motivation, and will continue to write with heart. Of course, after signing with us , the online copyright of their novels belongs to us, and they cannot publish them on other websites.”

Ma Huatong was taken aback. He thought Liu Jian's money was just a small amount of money. He didn't expect that he gave a maximum of one thousand yuan. Nowadays, many people who go to work still earn less than one thousand yuan a month. In this era, this is not a small number. up.

"Isn't it too much? There are so many authors of online novels, it's an astronomical figure just for us to pay." Ma Hua said painfully.

Liu Jian shook his head and said, "That's how much it is. You don't know how difficult it is for a person to sit in front of a computer and write every day. It's even more difficult than going to work. There are countless temptations on the computer. When you turn on the computer, they first To resist the temptation from the Internet, such as games, making friends, news, forums, they can only do other things after they finish writing. And the most important thing about this full attendance is persistence, insisting on writing every day, just thinking is right It’s a big test for the author. You also have to take into account the plot before and after, so that there are no loopholes, and sometimes you even have to re-read your own book in order to write a story. This money is hard to earn!”

Ma Huatong looked at Liu Jian with some confusion, wondering why he had such a big feeling, and how did he know that in his previous life Liu Jian not only read books, but also tried to write novels, but After writing more than 100,000 words, I couldn't keep going, and gave up sadly! It is really a great postgraduate entrance examination for the human spirit to insist on writing every day.

In addition, he heard from time to time on the Internet, which author has diabetes, which author writes every day, does not exercise, and has become sub-healthy, and that one has frozen shoulder because of sitting in front of the computer for a long time, Hearing too much made Liu Jian scared.

In fact, these are just a few of the occupational diseases of Internet authors. As for writing without a spare time, it is very common to fade out of the circle of friends and become an otaku.

I have paid so much, some even earn cigarette money, not only for money, but also for writing my own stories, for those book friends who support me, only those who have worked in this industry will understand the hardships involved.

Given such a small amount of money, Liu Jian felt that it was too little. If it weren’t for the fact that the current readership is not large, it would be difficult to make a profit. Liu Jian wished to increase the full attendance to 2,000. The pay is not directly proportional to the gain, which will make many people who have this idea , give up.

"Not only that, we can also recruit professional editors, guide them in writing, and let them improve. At the end of the year, we will give bonuses according to the number of hits. In addition, we will open the top-up system. Although it is not yet the time to charge, but if readers have the financial ability, they can also support the author. For example, rewards, reminders, etc., to broaden the income of the author, so that more and more authors can be made, and they will be more attentive , Write better works!" Liu Jian said. (
