Chapter 194: Boycott
Subscriptions continue to increase, and more and more people are aware of the news. The pen is www.biquge.info very popular, and Zhang Fan's fame is also very popular.
Many people enter the starting point with curiosity, but after entering the starting point, many people find that they thoroughly like the starting point. Convenient, it's so convenient.
Download an APP directly from your mobile phone and read books wherever you go. You can read a book anytime, anywhere, even if you squat in the toilet.
And it's convenient to hide, especially for those who work hard. Some units stipulate that you are not allowed to read other books during working hours. If you bring in a martial arts or romance novel, it's definitely very conspicuous.
Now that you have a starting point, you can watch it directly on your phone. It was just perfect. When it's okay, just take out your phone and take a look, how cool it is.
"It's amazing, I can read novels when I'm bored at work in the future......"
"You can see the ...... when you take the bus"
"You can see the ...... when you squat in the pit"
"Easy to carry......"
"Brother Fan is too powerful......"
"You can think of ...... idea"
"What a blessing for mankind. ”
"Van Ge Mighty ......"
A lot of people talked about it, and the starting point began to be known to more people.
Ordinary people are attracted by the convenience of the starting point, but in the business circle, many people are shocked after seeing the starting point website. Especially those publishers who experienced the starting point and almost had a heart attack.
"Starting Point Chinese Network, the ...... of the Terminator of the Publishing Industry"
"Paper books PK e-books, paper books fail ......"
"Zhang Fan opens the ...... of the e-book industry"
"Business geniuses make another move, shocking the industry......"
The business world was shocked, and many people seemed to have discovered a new continent. I started to study the starting point, and after researching, I found that the e-book industry is too powerful.
Especially after seeing the huge library of the starting point Chinese network, many publishing houses have the heart to die. Because there are many books that are sold to the starting point by their publishing house, and the copyright period is 50 years.
It turned out that they didn't care, thinking that e-books would have no impact on the publishing industry. But now it turns out that they couldn't have been more wrong.
E-books are simply a terminator, and his appearance is a fatal blow to paper books. This is true both in this world and in another.
"Hahaha, Brother Fan has gone to the publishing industry again......"
"It's awesome, start a new industry ......"
"It's amazing my brother ......"
"Sure enough, worthy of my idol......"
"It's amazing......"
"A leader in an industry, a cow ......"
"Brother Fan shouldn't mix in the entertainment industry, he should go to the business circle, Brother Fan, the position of the richest man in the world is waiting for you......"
"Haha......"
"I'm curious, Brother Fan made the Condor into an e-book, did he make more money by publishing?"
"I'm also curious......"
"But we are really cheap to read, 150,000 words are only seven yuan and five, if it is published, at least more than 20 yuan......"
"It does ......"
Many people can't help but talk about the e-book industry.
In Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Writers Association convened an emergency meeting, and many writers attended the meeting. Including Nansai scholars, and the content of the meeting is the starting point Chinese website.
"Everyone, I think you already know about the starting point Chinese network. Zhang Fan established the starting point Chinese network, do you know what this means for us?"
Zhuge Ming, vice president of the association, said seriously, and the writers below discussed in a low voice.
"Let me tell you, this means that our future income will shrink dramatically. As you can imagine, we can publish a book with 100,000 words, and a book can be sold for at least 20 yuan. ”
Zhuge Ming's words made everyone nod. Indeed, paper books, 100,000 words, can be published in one volume, and some relatively thin 40,000 or 50,000 words can be published in one volume.
There is basically no book less than twenty yuan. This is the price of the market, which basically hasn't changed much.
"Twenty dollars, even if we get 30 percent of the royalties, a book will be six dollars. But do you know what the starting price is? 5 cents for a thousand words, and that's still the selling price. In other words, 100,000 words can only be sold for five yuan. And the five dollars have to be divided into half of the starting point. That is to say, for 100,000 words, we publish a paper book, and we get at least six yuan, but if it is an e-book, we can only take two dollars and five at most. ”
After Zhuge Ming's words came out, the scene immediately became chaotic.
"This bastard Zhang Fan, this is to cut off our financial route. ”
"yes, it's a scourge......"
"It's too bad......"
"It's so bad......"
"What are we going to do?"
Many people talked about it, and Zhuge Ming laughed when he looked at everyone's discussion.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't panic. Don't forget, the initiative is still in our hands. The biggest weakness of the starting point Chinese network is easy to find, that is, copyright. If we don't sell them the rights to the e-book, readers won't be able to see it online. When the time comes, the publication of our novels will not be affected. ”
Zhuge Ming's words made everyone nod, yes, as long as they don't let their novels appear in e-books. Fans who want to read their own novels have to buy paper books.
"So, now we have to unite. Reject eBooks together so that our rights and interests can be protected. Otherwise, a single e-book spreads. It will be a catastrophe for us. ”
Zhuge Ming's words made everyone nod.
"I agree with President Zhuge 's proposal, and I will first state that no matter my previous books or future books, I will not sell the electronic copyright to the starting point Chinese network. ”
Nansai Scholar said with a smile, and everyone immediately made a decision when they heard Nansai's words.
"Me too, I won't sell ......"
"Don't sell ......"
"I think it's better to have a rule......
"We don't sell ......"
"Don't sell ......"
The influence of Nansai Scholar is very great, and now that he has taken a stand, others have also taken a stand.
"By the way, I have good news for you, we are also in contact with those in mainland China and Southeast Asia. They will join forces with us. I don't believe that the starting point of the boycott Chinese network, just relying on Zhang Fan alone can support a website......"
Zhuge Ming's words made everyone laugh. Don't look so hot at the starting point now, but if you want to develop, you need a steady stream of books to fill it. It's delusional to want to prop up a website with just a few books.
In the past, everyone didn't know the copyright of e-books, and some people were trapped. Now that they know what's going on, they're sure they won't be so stupid anymore. And those publishers won't be stupid enough to sell those copyrights to the starting point.
Without follow-up books to expand the library, what awaits the starting point will be doomed. Everyone is a smart person, and they saw the disadvantages of the starting point at a glance, and directly grasped the life gate of the starting point, and killed it with one blow.
