Chapter 205: Farewell
June 2, morning.
Lin Weidong held a short meeting in the company, mainly to summarize the results of the first day of the opening of Century Chinese Network.
"On the first day, we had more than 80,000 visits to our website, with a peak of 3,000 concurrent users and 3,000 registered users. ”
"I am personally very satisfied with this result, after all, we are the first day of the station, and here, I would also like to thank all of us, everyone for their efforts and dedication. ”
"I won't say anything superfluous, I hope you can continue to work hard and continue to carry forward this spirit of hard work. ”
"If we can reach 50,000 registered users of our website this month, everyone in our team will be able to get an additional 300 yuan in bonuses!"
"Alright, adjourn!"
Lin Weidong's last speech instantly ignited the enthusiasm of all employees, and applause also rang out.
You know, most employees hate meetings, and leaders can talk for two or three hours at any meeting.
However, as far as employees are concerned, no matter how much the leader says, it is useless, and the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, which is far less tangible than the reward of real money.
Therefore, Lin Weidong never engages in fake space, things that can be solved in one sentence, never say three sentences, reward and reward, and dismiss the meeting.
What's more, Lin Weidong's goal of breaking through 50,000 registered users a month is not a difficult thing for the current Century Chinese Network, and the enthusiasm of employees is also high.
In the following days, Lin Weidong led seven other employees to devote themselves to the construction of Century Chinese Network.
In the process of work, Lin Weidong found that Yan Tingfeng, who served as an editor, was very capable, and he was relatively calm and assertive.
Therefore, in addition to serving as the editor of Xuan Fantasy Text, Lin Weidong also asked Yan Tingfeng to be responsible for the content of Century Chinese Network and the discovery and operation of writers.
June 14th.
The number of registered users of Century Chinese Network exceeded 30,000, and the number of online users also reached a record high, and the number of serialized books on Century Chinese Network also exceeded 1,000.
However, what makes Lin Weidong wonder is that even if Century Chinese Network opens the monthly ticket rankings, the authors' updates are still very unstable.
Among the more than 1,000 new books, none of them can be updated for more than a week, almost all of them update a chapter every day or two, and some even update it every week.
In response to the phenomenon of lack of author updates, Lin Weidong discussed with Liu Limin and Wang Taoxin, and planned to sign some powerful authors in the near future and launch a full attendance award system.
Century Chinese signed a contract with the author, mainly to protect the interests of the website, to avoid some good works, not to be poached by other websites or publishers.
The full-time attendance system launched by Lin Weidong is to encourage signed authors, so that they can stably update at least one chapter of more than 2,000 words on the website every day for the full attendance award.
As long as the contracted author can be updated regularly every day, he can get a full attendance award of 300 yuan, so that not only the author can write books with peace of mind, but readers can also chase the book more freely, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
After the news spread, all literary forums exploded, and many other authors began to defect and turn to Century Chinese to try to seek new development.
Because in the eyes of the authors, the benefits of Century Chinese Network are really good, not only the top 20 in the monthly ticket list have manuscript fees, but also a stable full attendance award as long as you update diligently after signing the contract.
Of course, there are also a large number of authors who think that the full attendance award created by Century Chinese Network is simply destroying online literature and greatly reducing the level of works.
Among them, the Sky Forum of the Dragon was the most noisy, almost one-sidedly criticizing the new strategy of Century Chinese.
"With a new chapter every day, can a writer still write something good?"
"I think that good literature should be like a work of art, carefully crafted before it can be published to the public. ”
"Yes, the full attendance award is too dehumanizing, it will seriously damage the quality of literary works, I want to know, the contracted writers of Century Chinese Network force themselves to write content for the full attendance award every day, can readers read it?"
"I'm going to put my words here today, I'm sure that the full attendance award launched by Century Chinese.com will set back our online literature in China by ten years, a whole ten years!"
“......”
Lin Weidong has always been dismissive of the remarks of these authors, these people are hypocritical, if they have money for you to earn or not, they know that they are moaning all day long.
Moreover, Lin Weidong knew in his heart that the reason why Longkong's authors were so disgusted with the Quanqin Award was because Longkong had given up the development of the website and began to take the route of physical book publishing.
Therefore, for the authors of Longkong, their vision is more far-sighted, and they are more interested in the operation of physical copyright, rather than taking a mere 300 yuan for full attendance.
Obviously, Longkong, like Banyan Tree, chose to give up the development of the Internet and go all out to enter the publishing market.
After the establishment of Beijing Fantasy Culture Company, Longkong signed the best original works on the Internet at the moment, and also bought out a large number of works on the website, giving up online updates and publishing operations.
However, Longkong's management did not expect that their move directly led to the depression of Longkong's network, and indirectly caused the rise of emerging websites such as Phantom Sword Book League, Crawling, Cuiweiju, Read-Write Network, and Century Chinese Network.
It was from this time that the sky of the dragon gradually changed from the dominant of the online book station to a bystander, and no longer participated in the competition for the territory of the online book station.
Afternoon, June 16th.
Lin Weidong called Yan Tingfeng to the office.
Lin Weidong looked at Yan Tingfeng, who was wearing glasses, and said earnestly: "Tingfeng, the company will be handed over to you in the next few days, and Taoxin and I want to go back to Mei'an City." ”
In the face of the boss's trust and entrustment, Yan Tingfeng swore and said: "Please rest assured, boss, I will do my best to manage the company well." ”
Lin Weidong nodded with satisfaction: "Tingfeng, do a good job, I will definitely not treat you badly." ”
June 19th.
Lin Weidong, Wang Taoxin, and Liu Limin returned to Mei'an City, went back to school to report and receive their graduation certificates, and also took graduation photos with their classmates.
That same evening.
Lin Weidong and Wang Taoxin participated in the parting dinner of the class, and dozens of classmates ate and chatted together in the restaurant, telling the parting sorrow of their classmates.
Actually, Lin Weidong is okay, because he has already experienced a parting in his previous life, so he doesn't feel much.
However, some female classmates with relatively low tear points began to sobb in the middle of the meal because of the feeling of parting.
It's just that in the fourth class of the entire junior college, Lin Weidong is the only one who can't rest assured, only Chen Liling is alone, and the other students are all hurried passers-by in life.
When eating, because he didn't sit at the same table, Lin Weidong would look at Chen Liling's position from time to time.
Knowing that Lin Weidong had been looking at herself from a short distance, Chen Liling occasionally pretended to be casual and looked at Lin Weidong.
Originally, Lin Weidong thought that graduation was a normal thing, and he had long been accustomed to the joys and sorrows of the world.
However, when the squad leader finally took the lead in singing the song "Farewell", Lin Weidong looked at the familiar and young faces present, and his heart was inevitably a little sentimental.
"On the side of the ancient road outside the long pavilion, the grass is green, the evening breeze blows the willow flute, the sunset outside the mountain, the end of the sky, the corner of the earth, and the acquaintance is half scattered......"
