Chapter 35: Self-Doubt

When she came down again, she opened the manuscript fee income tremblingly, but the cool air almost didn't rise.

[Reward amount: 44 yuan]

[Full attendance guarantee: 600 yuan]

[Subscription fee: 946 yuan]

[Total before tax: 1590 yuan]

After deducting taxes, this amount of money is barely about 1450.

Compared with last month's manuscript fee, this month's manuscript fee is simply a jumping drop.

She was depressed, but she heard Zheng Jia next to her cry in surprise.

"Ah, I have 1,800 yuan in manuscript fees this month......"

Zheng Jia came over after shouting, looked at Tong Yao's manuscript fee income interface, and immediately became more curious.

"Why are you only over 1,500, didn't you last month...... This...... You can't go wrong, can you?"

Tong Yao replied pitifully.

"There are all the subscription records of this manuscript fee, you can't be wrong, I don't have a mosquito leg this month, and I started to be a little messy in the later stage of writing......"

"Chaos?"

"Yes, it's more than 600,000 words now, and this book was originally written casually by me, and I didn't prepare an outline, and I almost wrote everything in my head, so I ......"

This problem is actually encountered by online novel writers.

A novel, especially a more profitable novel, will unconsciously drag out the plot when the ending is about to be written, so that the novel can make more money.

I'm afraid it's not easy to make people give up such an easy opportunity to make money.

And Tong Yao is facing this problem.

When she first started writing "Southern Sword and Northern Sword", she just casually thought about a vulgar plot, and did not prepare for any outline at all.

But when I wrote this, the southern sword and the northern sword knocked down the big boss, and there is really nothing to write, but if you want to give up this book and open a new book, not only will the new book have a gap of more than a month, but it is still unknown what the future results of the new book will be.

But fortunately, she is not financially strapped now, and her tuition and living expenses are now free.

Thinking of this, she pistled her head and began to choose.

It is necessary to open a new book, and now the manuscript in my hand can be supported until September at most, and if you still want to get full attendance in October, you must rush to November to get the second book on the shelves!

August 10th, 8 p.m.!

"Whew!

Tong Yao twisted her neck and let out a sigh.

Zheng Jia asked while coding words.

"Done?"

"Well, a total of 1030,000 words, the manuscript should be able to be sent to the National Day, but I have to think about opening a new book. ”

"Have you figured out what to write?"

Zheng Jia asked, Tong Yao shook her head.

"Not yet, but I definitely won't write martial arts anymore, I think the first book is too sloppy......"

Tong Yao said it was still more subtle, in fact, she was still full of confidence when she first wrote it, and when she wrote seventy or eighty thousand words and looked back, she felt that it was a mess, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt unpleasant.

This is one of the reasons why she wants to finish the book quickly.

After finishing the old book, she instantly felt a lot more relaxed, and finally felt that writing a novel was not as easy as she thought.

Especially now that there are more authors and more books on the website, the competition has become fierce, and it is no longer just a matter of writing something and someone will come to praise the stinky feet.

Zheng Jia was scared at night, and when she saw that Tong Yao didn't write, she turned off her phone and went to sleep.

There was no word all night, and the next morning, Tong Yao got up early in the morning and clicked on the homepage of the starting Chinese website to start researching.

As a result, at a glance, the boss with his mouth open.

"I'll ...... It's only been a few months, and there are so many books on the site?"

The number of books in each category was displayed in the first category, and she was surprised and began to roughly calculate it, and finally marveled again.

"That's 150,000 or 60,000 novels?"

Zheng Jia nodded and agreed.

"Yes, it's a lot, but it's understandable when you think about it, you can make money by writing something, and college students and those who are free at work must not be crazy. Not to mention office workers, just college students across the country write one, then it will take tens of millions of copies, and now there are only 100,000 copies, you look at it, at most two or three years, there will be more books in the library. ”

……

After being amazed, Tong Yao went in to check one by one, and looked at it for about half an hour, which can be regarded as a new understanding of the development of the website.

Although there are twelve categories on the starting Chinese network, the popularity of each category is not even, of course, this is also caused by the preferences of readers.

It is embodied in the number of authors, works, reader subscriptions, and so on in each category.

For example, the most popular fantasy and fairy tale categories have a total of more than 60,000 novels, almost one-third of the total number of books.

Next is the urban classification, because it is pasted into life and has a strong sense of substitution, so it also accounts for one-third.

In contrast, the categories of suspense, military, history, science fiction, etc., because of the small audience, there are relatively few authors and readers, especially the historical classification, which only has ninety-six books, and even a hundred is not enough.

Looking at the sales list again, it is now in the top ten, six of which are fantasy and Xianxia, and the remaining four are also urban classifications.

And in the first place is "The Peak of the Quartet", the author Lao Niu, this update madman is too famous. Even people like Tong Yao, who never look at the homepage, know it.

She clicked on the peak of the Quartet and almost knelt down, others updated more than two months later than her, but now she has only updated to 650,000 words, but others have already 1.3 million words, and they are still updating at a rate of 10,000 or 20,000 words a day.

Looking at the clicks, collections, rewards, monthly passes, and the number of fans, Tong Yao was about to cry.

The heart said that this latecomer was too ruthless, and he pressed himself directly to the ground and crushed it......

Below "The Peak of the Quartet", there is "Ascension", a flower in the southeast of the author.

The third place is "I Am a Little Boss" for three years!

These two books were signed with her at the same time on the Chunyu Novel Network, but I didn't expect that the two people were in the top three on the sales list, but they were ranked behind I don't know how many hundred.

This huge sense of disparity made Tong Yao a little shaken for a while.

She couldn't help but ask herself, is she really suitable for writing online novels?

Is Writing Web Novels Really Promising?

What if you can't make money in the next book, and the writing is even worse?

Can you still hold on to it?

How long can you keep going?

The more she looked at it, the more she felt uncomfortable, so far, she finally understood why the girl with the same name in her dream would commit suicide by jumping into the river, it was a kind of gray that saw no hope at all, and she couldn't get a reward for her efforts to die......

Tong Yao sighed and closed the webpage in distraught.
