Chapter 215 The Problem of New Contracts
After listening to Lin Yan's analysis, Li Mo simply closed the backstage web page, this kind of tricky thing, whoever wants to go will go. He didn't want to write any more anyway.
"Aunt Lin, if they do this, I'm afraid there are few authors who have written it there for them. Li Mo asked truthfully.
Although Lin Chang doesn't understand the author's mentality, she has been running a company for so many years, and she understands human nature somewhat.
Tianou will indeed disgust many people by doing this, but as long as you can make money by posting in Tianou, there will naturally be people who will go.
Those well-known writers may feel that if they transfer all their copyrights, they can only get a fixed amount of money every month, which will hurt their interests.
But some novice authors have a place where they can make money, and the benefits are so good, why don't they go?
People have to have their stomachs full before they can think about other issues like dignity.
Lin Yan thought so in her heart, and analyzed it with Li Mo in her mouth.
After listening to it, Li Mo felt that what Lin Yan said was indeed very reasonable.
If he hadn't found Lin Yan and their next family now, he would probably have been able to pinch his nose and admit that he was unlucky.
After all, his arms can't reach his thighs, and even if he has the backbone and doesn't want to go to that website to write, there are always other people who are willing to go.
In this world, there is no shortage of workers and thieves, who have a deep hatred for the oppressor on the surface, but if the oppressor is willing to hire them, they will not be able to pass the joy.
"Aunt Lin, isn't it a big blow to the new website you are going to create?" He has now taken Lin Chang's side and helped figure out a way.
Lin Yan nodded when she heard this: "They will indeed attract a lot of new authors or authors who need a stable income in the past, and the new website on my side has nothing now, and they and I can only be said to be opponents in the future." ”
"Aunt Lin, are you going to use a contract like theirs too?" Li Mo thought about it and asked directly about his psychological thoughts.
Lin Yan is different from Lin Xi, Lin Xi is a stupid person, but Lin Yan controls an entertainment company, and compared with Lin Xi's stupid white sweetness, she is naturally not half a star higher.
Following a business tycoon like her, Li Mo is still a little muttering now.
What if she wanted her own copyright?
Others may consider writing crashing before or during the creation process, and they can't update these problems when they encounter real-life difficulties in the writing process, but Li Mo doesn't care about these problems.
He's all got it from the mood ball, and it's completely imprinted in his mind.
Each one of them is considered a high-quality book, and all he needs is to take the time to type out these books and publish them on the Internet.
And these books can basically say that the future can be expected.
Although Li Mo has average knowledge, he still knows that in such a situation, it is best to keep the copyright in his own hands.
Lin Yan is also a little hesitant now, if she directly imitates Tianou's contract template, the new platform she created in the future, and the competition between Tianou and Tianou will completely become who has better benefits than the other party.
If you want to compete on the other side, it depends on who throws more money into it in the future.
Although the Yutong Group behind her has sufficient funds, Lin Yan still doesn't want to fight with Tianou directly with bayonets like this, so even if she wins, Yutong's internal evaluation of her is estimated to be average.
"I'm not very familiar with this industry, and I don't have a clue yet, but as a businessman, I definitely prefer to use Tianou's kind of contract, because in doing so, the risks are controllable, but the benefits are immeasurable. ”
What Lin Chang said is a fact, giving the author a fixed salary every month, and it is a big deal that different levels of authors give different prices, so that the operating expenses of the entire platform are clearly visible and can be measured, which is convenient for the company's management and decision-making.
However, among the books that have obtained the copyright, if a few fire books can be published, it will be a big profit.
When Li Mo heard this, he probably understood what Lin Yan meant.
Holding his chin in one hand, he thought about it in his heart.
After thinking about it, he said directly: "Aunt Lin, do you still have an impression of the history of the agricultural village in the special period? At the beginning, a team of farmers received rations according to their work, and the calculation method of work was how many points an adult man worked a day, and an adult woman was a little lower. Isn't this model similar to their Tianou model?
But what was the end result of relying on the division of labor to develop agriculture in those days? Many people even starved to death because of it.
If you also look for the model of moving Tianou, will the final result be the same as the situation back then?"
Li Mo didn't want to hand over the copyright, and he didn't bother to find other platform websites that didn't want copyrights, and the easiest way in front of him now was to persuade Lin Yan not to develop the website into the kind of website that simply let the author be a coolie.
Lin Yan's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Do you mean that if you do that, the author may lack enthusiasm, and eventually everyone will be confused?"
Li Mo nodded: "This is indeed the truth, of course, this shortcoming can naturally be avoided." But then the website needs to invest enough supervisors to confirm whether the author is lazy, whether he is fishing in troubled waters, and indiscriminately. ”
Lin Yan stared at Li Mo in surprise, she didn't expect him to see the problem so thoroughly at such a young age. But her own niece Lin Xi is now sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at herself for a while, and Li Mo for a while, as if she was watching a big drama, listening to it with relish. Not only that, but from time to time he showed a silly smile.
Lin Yan was helpless, glared at Lin Xi and said angrily: "What are you laughing at, follow Li Mo to learn hard!"
The smile on Lin Xi's face gradually solidified, and then turned into confusion, what did she do? Why was she suddenly scolded?
"Li Mo, I'll ignore you!" Lin Xi snorted coldly and tilted his head to the side.
Li Mo: ······
Fortunately, this is not the first time he has encountered such a situation, and Li Mo is not surprised now.
Lin Yan watched the two of them fighting, but in her heart, she was quickly thinking about the cost of increasing the number of supervisors that Li Mo said.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan shook her head in disappointment, this kind of approach is not realistic at all.
If you want to play a good supervisory role, you have to find enough excellent editors, and whether so many editors can be recruited is not to say first, even if they do, they will face huge labor costs, and there is no guarantee that the editors will be able to play a good supervisory role.
After all, there is still a big difference between literary creation and farming, and even a well-known editor can't guarantee that he won't be blind.
"Forget it, it's a bit more than worth it. Lin Yan sighed, thinking that it seemed that she still had to explore a new model by herself.
"Li Mo, can you think of this step, is there any solution?"
