Chapter 262: The Deceased
Since May 2002, literary websites have ushered in another peak of development since 1999, and the traffic of almost all literary websites has been soaring.
This growth did not slow down until August 2002.
The rapid growth of the number of users has strengthened Lin Weidong's determination and made him more informed to continue to implement the VIP system.
And since the day the wild fox under the tree "Sou Shen Ji" was put on the shelves, it has constantly refreshed the records of the starting point VIP.
After nearly a year of serialization, the highest subscription to "Sou Shen Ji" also rose from 3,000 to more than 5,000 in July, and his monthly remuneration exceeded 10,000 for the first time.
Originally, Lin Weidong wanted to wait for the "Sou Shen Ji" to exceed 10,000 before launching the Great God Contract, but he believes that the manuscript fee of the wild fox under the tree exceeds 10,000, which is also a very good publicity opportunity for Century Chinese Network.
So, Lin Weidong put forward the concept of "Great God Contract" with Wu Wenhui, Liu Limin and others.
"There must be a difference between the gods we launched and ordinary authors. ”
"For example, the sharing between ordinary writers and our website is 55 shares, while the great god writers and our website are 73 shares. ”
"Secondly, great god writers enjoy a steady stream of website recommendations......"
Although Lin Weidong's "Great God Contract" is a very innovative and bold idea for others at Century Chinese, they also have to admit that Lin Weidong's idea is very mature and it is difficult to find fault with it.
Soon, the manuscript fee of the wild fox under the tree exceeded 10,000, and after the launch of the "Great God Contract" of Century Chinese Network, it spread on major literary websites and caused a huge sensation.
In just a few days, more and more authors, with awe, left other literary websites and ran to the Century Chinese Network to "preach", dreaming that they could become god-level figures in the online literature circle like the wild fox under the tree.
August 15th, afternoon.
Lin Weidong carried two bags of watermelons and came to Wang Taoxin's studio to visit the class.
Seeing Lin Weidong enter the door, Wang Taoxin immediately stood up from the chair and greeted Lin Weidong with a smile: "Weidong, you are here." ”
Lin Weidong also smiled and nodded: "Well, you have worked hard with your brothers, and you brought two watermelons to relieve the heat." ”
"Alas, Weidong, you said you, why are you so polite, it's good if someone comes, what kind of gifts do you bring. Wang Taoxin said with a smile and took the watermelon from Lin Weidong's hand.
Lin Weidong smiled and said, "Yes, the eldest sister has worked hard." As he spoke, he gave a Chinese cigarette to each of the brothers present.
The brothers all knew Lin Weidong's identity and showed great respect for him.
It is worth mentioning that the house of Wang Taoxin's studio is a property in Lin Weidong's name.
In the past month, Wang Taoxin has also lived up to expectations, leading the brothers of the team to develop two game plug-ins in a row.
Of course, Wang Taoxin's research and development of plug-ins is mainly to make money, and Lin Weidong asked Wang Taoxin to develop plug-ins in order to promote hao123.
After the big guy finished eating the watermelon, he continued to work again.
Lin Weidong and Wang Taoxin didn't want to disturb their work, so they went to the balcony to discuss things.
Wang Taoxin lit a cigarette and asked with interest: "Weidong, has the number of visits to hao123 increased recently?"
Lin Weidong nodded: "Yes, yes, there must be, now the number of visits to hao123 is more than 10 million every day." ”
After listening to Lin Weidong's words, Wang Taoxin couldn't help but sigh: ", it's broken 10 million so soon, I remember...... When I watched the backstage last month, it was less than 8 million a day. ”
You must know that in the middle of 2002, the number of Internet users in China had just exceeded 50 million.
hao123 can reach 10 million daily visits, which is absolutely terrifying.
Without waiting for Lin Weidong to answer, Wang Taoxin then asked: "Is the promotion of our game plug-in working?"
Lin Weidong said with a straight face: "That's right, you made a game plug-in, which did bring a lot of traffic to our website." ”
Wang Tao said happily: "That's good, if it doesn't work, I'm embarrassed to see you." ”
Lin Weidong then asked: "What about you? How much money do you make from cheating?"
Wang Taoxin scratched her head with a smile: "Actually, it's not much money, it's just starting out......"
Lin Weidong asked puzzledly: "What about the 70,000 yuan I gave you?
Wang Taoxin said calmly: "Weidong, I used the 70,000 yuan of start-up capital you gave me to buy computers, pay broadband fees, and pay salaries to the brothers. ”
"But don't worry, our plug-ins have started to make a profit, so we don't need to call you for money anymore. ”
Lin Weidong advised: "If you have no money, you must tell me in advance, don't hold on." ”
Wang Taoxin smiled and nodded: "I'm not welcome." ”
After going around Wang Taoxin's studio, Lin Weidong went to the company again.
Before Lin Weidong's buttocks were hot in the office, Liu Limin walked in, sat opposite him, and asked with a smile: "Boss, is our company still recruiting?"
Lin Weidong didn't think about it, so he told her directly: "It's still a fart, how can our company still squeeze people." ”
Liu Limin sighed, pretending to sigh regretfully: "Okay, then I'll bring your words directly to the junior sister." ”
Lin Weidong saw that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Wait, senior sister, who is the senior sister you are talking about?"
Liu Limin smiled and asked, "Want to know?"
Lin Weidong said calmly: "Senior sister, just say it directly, which senior sister are you talking about, don't sell it." ”
Liu Limin didn't go around the bend with him, and said very simply: "The senior sister's name is Chen Liling, and she is also your classmate." ”
Lin Weidong couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Sure enough, it's Liling." ”
"Isn't she assigned to teach in the countryside? Why is she so good that she wants to come to Shanghai to find a job?"
Liu Limin pretended to be sympathetic and said: "She said that teaching in the countryside is boring, and she wants to come out and see the world...... It's a pity that our boss doesn't recruit people, otherwise I would have called her to Shanghai. ”
Lin Weidong hurriedly said, "Let her come." ”
Liu Limin smiled and asked, "Didn't you just say that our company is not hiring?"
Lin Weidong didn't care what Liu Limin would think, and told her directly: "Zhao, I plan to find a personal assistant." ”
Liu Limin asked again: "What treatment?"
"Three thousand a month, wrapped. ”
Liu Limin is not a fool, in fact, she has long suspected that Lin Weidong and Chen Liling have an unusual relationship, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.
However, when Liu Limin was in school before, she had a very good impression of Chen Liling, and the relationship between the two was okay.
Therefore, when Lin Weidong proposed to recruit Chen Liling into the company, Liu Limin not only did not raise any objections, but also conveyed Lin Weidong's words to Chen Liling.
Lin Weidong wondered why Chen Liling wanted to use Liu Limin's relationship instead of calling him directly.
