"Exclusive licenses, works that are only sold online?"

Wang gradually looked at the advertisement and thought of the many niche books that he was looking for because he needed to collect various materials when adapting "Extreme Heavenly Demon".

This couldn't help but make him sigh lightly, "It's a little interesting".

Click on the link to enter the book sales page.

Only a few minutes later, though.

He saw the name of the author of a work for sale.

"Koya?"

The name,

How is it so familiar?

Wang gradually frowned, and after thinking for a long time.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and immediately opened his website and typed the name "Koya" in the author field.

Then, the book about "Greek mythology" that I read a few days ago appeared in front of me.

Wang gradually compared the titles and biographies of the works on the next two websites.

Actually, exactly the same?

Authors are churning?

Wang gradually quickly switched between Amazon and the page, and quickly entered the author's name.

Then, there were works that had not been updated for a long time, confirming his ideas.

This made Wang Yan, who was more and more sensitive to interests, constantly alarm bells in his heart.

The mass departure of authors means a massive reduction in works.

Although, the number of clicks and the payment rate of the works of these authors are not very high.

But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.

What's more, what if one day these writers' brains will open up?

As if looking at the future cash cows, Wang gradually turned around and left.

This makes it completely unacceptable for him, who has already become a capitalist.

"Tom, Dorsey, come to my office. Wang gradually said in a serious voice.

A moment later, the two walked in together.

"What's going on? Can any of you tell me?" asked Wang Gradually, pointing to the computer screen.

But Tom, who has been busy signing contracts with writers recently, and Dorsey, who only cares about technical issues, looked confused after glancing at the computer screen.

Wang gradually looked at the expressions of the two and knew that the two of them still didn't understand.

"Tom, you use your connections in the six major publishing houses to investigate the situation. Why are these online exclusive editions from the six major publishing houses?"

"Doshi, sort out the data of the most recently updated works on the website, and the data of the highest peak of work updates. ”

Tom and Dorsey reacted when they heard this.

They looked at the computer screen again and nodded solemnly.

Then, he left quickly.

Ten minutes later.

Tom returned to his office first and replied to Wang gradually about his inquiry.

After hearing this, Wang gradually frowned.

In order to attract writers, the six major publishing houses have lowered their standards, which is understandable.

But you can dig up the meat in your bowl, which is completely unbearable.

Then Dorsey walked briskly.

He submitted a very detailed data report to Wang Jian.

Wang gradually looked down at the data.

I found that the number of serialized works on the website is at least 1/4 lower than the peak.

Moreover, the downward trend continues.

This can be corresponded to by an increase in the number of readers and a general increase in the click-through rate of works on the site.

What does this mean?

This is more dollars than expected, and it is far away from itself!

Wang gradually looked up at the two of them and said, "Tell me, what should you do?"

"I think writers still have a paper book complex. Tom said, "You're also a best-selling author, so you can still relate to it." ”

Wang gradually thought about how he felt when he first got the paper book of "I Am the Great Mage", and couldn't help but nodded.

Dorsey followed suit: "I think the website should be more inclusive. It should be categorized according to the type of book. It can no longer be said that all works are ranked in order of click-through rate and paid rate. ”

"We need to give all kinds of works the opportunity to show them comprehensively. ”

Wang gradually thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense.

As the number of readers increases, its needs are bound to be diverse.

And due to the process of building the website, the current recommendation mechanism is indeed very unfriendly to non-fantasy literature lovers.

Then, in order to increase the reading interest of this part of the readers, classification is indeed necessary.

I built my own website for money, for paid reading, not for the sake of building an online base camp for fantasy literature.

Wang gradually tapped his fingers twice on the table, and then said, "Dorsey, you can break down the types of works on the website. Then, give the site another revamp. ”

"The recommendation mechanism is arranged according to the reading rate of each type of work, from high to low. ”

"The most important point, though, you two didn't mention. ”

"That's the power of money. ”

Wang gradually picked up the coffee and took a sip.

"Reach out to some of the top earners on the site. Under the same circumstances, the conditions of the first recommendation are given to ask them if they are willing to disclose their income. ”

"If we want, we can do a revenue leaderboard. ”

"As for the physical book, I need to think about it again. ”

Tom and Dorsey looked at each other, each nodding away.

Wang gradually sat behind his desk and began to think of a way to solve the problem of physical books.

The cost of physical books is high, and there are fixed sales channels.

With the current situation of the website, if you force yourself into this industry, if you are not careful, it is entirely possible to go bankrupt.

What to do?

Wang gradually drank several cups of coffee, but still didn't make up his mind, whether he should take this risk.

He picked up the sales of the Arcane Throne comic book on the table and decided to compare it with the number of people who paid to read it, and see if he could analyze anything.

But when Wang gradually clicked into the catalog of "Arcane Throne", he suddenly found a post with an astonishing number of replies.

He subconsciously clicked on it, only to see that the content of the post was a call for the physical version of "Arcane Throne".

Wang gradually looked at the post, then at the data in his hand, and felt that something had come to mind.

There is no shortage of publicity resources and payment channels for the works on the website.

Most of the people who will buy physical books are also people who have read the works.

So, is it possible to run a booking campaign on the website?

By charging a certain pre-order fee, you can estimate the number of physical books to be published. This minimizes the possibility of losing money.

The books are then delivered to the customer by mail.

And because there are not a large number of surplus books, the cost of doing so is still much lower than that of traditional publishing channels.

As for the ISBN...

It shouldn't cost much to buy a small publishing house.

Just when Wang was gradually considering whether to publish a physical book.

Bezos is busy fooling Wall Street investors.

He infinitely exaggerated the superiority and forward-looking nature of the "Internet exclusivity" of these books.

However, it serves only one purpose.

That's that Amazon has a great future.

So, hit the money!

ps: Sorry, only one more.
