Chapter 016: Web Release
135oo, it's just the money that 6 Yang earned in these two months, and the manuscript fee for the first episode of the manuscript is still in the publishing house, not to mention, there are more than 1,000 living expenses for this semester in the 6 Yang bank card.
Taken together, there are now more than 15ooo in the 6 Yang bank card.
With so much money, many of the things that 6 Yang had planned before could be started.
First, 6 Yang went to the 3rd floor of Unit 2, Building 4, Xuefu Community, on the left side of the school, and rented a house of more than 80 square meters.
The rent for 2oo3 is really cheap, especially for 6 Yangs who came over from 2o13, it's ridiculously cheap.
More than 80 square meters, with decoration and furniture, the school community house is only 5oo yuan per month.
Two bedrooms and one living room.
For 6 Jan to live alone, it's huge.
But 6 Yang likes the clean environment there, 5oo yuan a month, which is nothing for 6 Yang's current income, just write a few thousand more words every month.
In his bones, 6 Yang is a hedonist, and he feels that life is only a few decades, and he is comfortable and uncomfortable.
If the economy allows, there is no need to be so frugal.
Otherwise, if you work hard to earn money, if you don't eat it, what's the point of earning money?
Subsequently, 6 Jan went to a computer store and bought an ASUS notebook.
The price of notebooks in 2oo3 is generally very high, this ASUS, 6 Yang spent 7ooo, asked for a mouse and speaker as a giveaway, the speaker effect is good, 6 Yang used it for the first time to listen to songs, and I liked it.
For an online novel author, a computer cannot be saved, unless you don't want to write online articles for a long time, otherwise you have to write on manuscript paper and go to the Internet café computer to type, which is really a waste of time.
Especially many times when writing the plot, you need to check what information, and you don't have a computer at hand, which is really inconvenient.
The most important point is that with your own computer, 6 Yang's "Doomsday Wasteland" can be on the table, and it will be very convenient to update new chapters every day.
For an online author, popularity on the web is fundamental.
The reborn 6 Yang knows very well that in a few years, even if it is a publishing house in Taiwan, 9o% of the works they choose to publish are also selected from those extremely popular works on the Internet, and it will be much more difficult for other less popular authors to publish their works.
Also, although I write novels on the Internet at the moment, I don't make as much money as I do publishing.
But as time goes by, more and more people will read novels on the Internet, and the more time passes, the more online authors will earn on the website, and the manuscript fee they get on the website will even be hundreds of times the publication fee.
6 Yang now has almost 300,000 words in "Doomsday Wasteland", and it is the right time to buy a computer and put it on the website.
With almost 300,000 words in hand, after "Doomsday Wasteland" was posted on the website, there was no need for 6 Yang to rush the manuscript every day.
6. When Yang rented a house, he paid attention to the fact that the rented house had an internet cable.
Therefore, as soon as I bought the 6 Yang computer, I was able to surf the Internet smoothly.
That afternoon, 6 Yang registered his pen name, Wen Chou.
Then I created a new "Doomsday Wasteland" in the author's background, and the first chapter of more than 3,000 words was put on the website for review.
The online novels in 2oo3 are still in the emerging stage, and although there are occasional sweeps of pornography on the Internet, there is no ferocious river crab beast a few years later.
Not to mention that "Doomsday Wasteland" is not a pornographic text, even if it is a pornographic text, no website will refuse to include it at this time.
So, the next day, 6 Yang's new book "Doomsday Wasteland" was reviewed.
It should be mentioned that 6 Jan had moved his luggage to this house the afternoon before.
When 6 Yang was carrying his luggage, he was seen by two roommates in the dormitory, and they were all shocked at the time, and kept asking 6 Yang if he had found a girlfriend and moved out to live, whether he wanted to live a happy life with his girlfriend?
During my college years, there were indeed a lot of people who rented a house outside to live.
And the vast majority, almost 99% of those who moved out to live, went out to live with their girlfriends.
So, it's no wonder that the two roommates were so suspicious.
Of course, 6 Yang would not say that it was to go out to write novels, at this time, 6 Yang still didn't want any of his classmates to know about writing novels, and he didn't want to add a lot of attention to writing novels because his classmates and teachers knew about writing novels like he did last time in his freshman year.
6 Jan doesn't want to live under the attention of so many people.
……
The morning after the new book was uploaded, 6 Yang opened his laptop while eating his boiled egg noodles, and after seeing the text message from the website to review Tong Guò, he went up five chapters in a row.
When the fifth chapter went up, 6 Yang suddenly remembered a rather cheating thing.
――That is, 6 Yang suddenly remembered that in 2oo3, it was very difficult to sign a contract at the starting point.
The difficulty of signing a contract is very high, not the reason why 6 Yang is depressed, the real reason is that 6 Yang remembers that in 2oo3, the first novel he wrote was 120,000 words at the starting point, and the publishing houses in Taiwan have appeared, and they have asked him to sign a contract for publication, but the starting point has not yet signed a contract with him.
And in this case, as far as 6 Jan knows, he is not alone.
The starting point of 2oo3 is such a cheat, most of the signed works can only be signed until more than 100,000 or 200,000 words, unlike a few years later, when the novel reaches the starting point, 3 or 50,000 words, as long as there is a little quality, it will be signed by the starting point.
Is it necessary to wait for more than 100,000 words to sign the contract this time?
Before signing the contract, I had been running naked, and there was no website to recommend it.
6 Yang stopped eating noodles for a while, thought about it carefully, and decided to talk about the manuscript of the week first, and when the website stipulates that the new book is 30,000 words, you can apply for the contract for the first time.
When "Doomsday Wasteland" is enough for 30,000 words, apply to see it, and if you can't get it, in order to get a recommendation from the website a day earlier, try to contact the website's editor.
For the current 6 Yang, the 29 years of life experience in his previous life told him that many things do not need to be so disciplined.
Because being too disciplined means being rigid, and rigidity comes at a cost.
When needed, 6 Jan doesn't mind contacting the editor at the starting point directly to see if he can sign up directly, but it's not there yet.
Maybe when you apply for a contract with 30,000 words, you will sign it.
After all, the quality of this "Doomsday Wasteland" is far better than the ** book before his rebirth.
……
As an online author, the initial path was very hard.
It can be said that any newcomer, no matter how awesome his first work is, at the beginning of the period, at least ten days, more than a few months or even years, is bitter.
For example, 6 Young's book "Doomsday Wasteland".
Although in terms of quality, it is definitely more than any book that 6 Yang has written before.
But when it first started uploading, the popularity was also so bleak that it hurt people's eggs.
On the first day, five chapters were uploaded, and when Yang came back from school in the afternoon and turned on the computer to read, there were only 12 clicks, only 2 recommended votes, and 1 collection.
In 2oo3, the starting point is not yet a monthly ticket list, a fan list or anything.
When a new book is on the website, the only things you can see are clicks, recommended votes, and favorites.
In addition to counting jù, the only thing you can see is the book reviews in the book review area.
It's a pity that on the first day of the official upload of "Doomsday Wasteland", there were only 4 advertisements in the book review area, except for a congratulatory book review automatically posted on the starting point website.
Seeing this bleak situation, although 6 Yang had been mentally prepared, he couldn't help but show a wry smile and scolded speechlessly: "His grandmother has a leg!"
Then, without saying a word, a new chapter was passed on.
Then I thought about it, and added a sentence under the introduction of the page: This book has 300,000 manuscripts, please rest assured that you can collect and read.
6 Yang has come from this era, and it is clear that nine out of ten online novels at this time have not been saved, and nine out of ten will soon be eunuchs.
The vast majority of new books are written in less than 100,000 words, and they stop forever.
This phenomenon has made countless readers who have fallen into the pit cry, and there is no way to do it.
can only scold the eunuch to death, while looking for a work that can be watched.
Therefore, in general, the online literature circle at this time, whether it is for the author or for the reader, is an era of cheating.
The author is hard, and the reader is also hard.
(The book is still thin, you can add it to the bookshelf first, and then read it when you are fat.) )
