Major accidents
The end of the year is approaching, and the wax moon is approaching.
Xiao Yan began to serialize "Planet Evolution System" in Dianniang on October 12, 2016 to January 16, 2018, and one year and three months have passed unconsciously.
Truth be told, in the course of this year and three months of writing. Xiao Yan hasn't seen a penny of the manuscript fee so far, yes, you read that right.
Xiao Yan has been serialized on the Internet for 540,000 words intermittently in the past year and three months.
However, so far... One... Divide... Money... All... Not... See... Arrive!!!
As for the specific reasons for this tragic story, there are many aspects, here we will start with the manuscript fee system of Dianniang:
According to the VIP signing contract of Dianniang, if it is put on the shelves and entered V, the manuscript fee obtained is 55% of the website and the author.
That is, when the author writes a book, in principle, half of the money goes to the website and half of the money goes to the author.
However, 55 points is only in principle and the ideal state, in reality, in fact, it is that the website takes 50% of the manuscript fee, and the author receives 50% of the author's income, and it also needs to take out 1 to 20% and hand it over to third-party platforms and other channels for the promotion fee of these platforms and channels.
In other words, for a book, the money that the author finally gets is actually only three or four percent of the original manuscript fee.
For example, a local tyrant reader rewards 100,000 book coins to his favorite.
Of the 100,000 book coins, only 30,000 or 40,000 book coins fell into the hands of the author.
Converted to RMB, that is, the local tyrant reader rewarded 1,000 RMB, and in the end, only three or four hundred RMB came to the author.
For Dianniang or the current issue of manuscript fee sharing in the online literature industry, it is a conventional rule. Xiao Yan can't complain about anything here, so Xiao Yan will mention it slightly.
To get back to the point, another key reason why Xiao Yan has been writing for a year and three months, and he has not seen a cent of the manuscript fee so far, is on Xiao Yan himself:
Because in the past year, Xiao Yan's real life has faced a series of major life problems such as severe career choice and work society, so on the issue of updating this book, Xiao Yan has been looking for a job while taking effort to update.
Later, after it was put on the shelves, the results were sluggish. There was a shortage of funds in reality, and Xiao Yan's normal life could not be guaranteed, so in the end, Xiao Yan had to be forced to make a living, and chose to focus on real work, and temporarily stopped working for several months.
Because of the long interruption, the book has lost a lot of readers. Originally, the number of people who entered the pit with a considerable increase in daily collections also slowly declined, and finally there was none.
Later, in August and September 2017, Xiao Yan's work barely stabilized. Life is on the right track, and Xiao Yancai, driven by interest, reorganizes the constructed world view and plot direction, and resumes slow updates.
In short, one of the main reasons why Xiao Yan didn't see a penny of code manuscript remuneration for one year and three months is like this - Xiao Yan's update is too wasteful.
There are two other reasons why I haven't seen a penny for so long:
(1) Many readers watch piracy, which Xiao Yan doesn't want to say much. After all, Xiao Yan is also an old bookworm who has been around since 2007, and Xiao Yan has basically experienced and understood the hardships and psychological activities of bookworms.
Piracy is rampant, it is a large-scale phenomenon in China, and this thing can only rely on the consciousness of readers.
Shenma: You said that the laws and regulations to combat piracy pinned your hopes on that thing, Xiao Yan might as well code a few more words.
Because there are too many readers who watch pirated copies, Xiao Yan's book has been floating between "2 and 3" in Dianniang's genuine single chapter subscription.
What is this unexpected? It means that Xiao Yan's book only costs two or three people to read each chapter.
And among these two or three people, according to Xiao Yan's observation, there are two 100% automatic chapter crawling robots of pirated websites.
This Nima... Seriously, according to the rules in the online literature circle, with this kind of funny achievement, if it was replaced by other authors, he would have silently taken out a forty-nine-meter broadsword and attacked himself as a eunuch in the palace.
If it weren't for Xiao Yan's great interest in writing, Xiao Yan would not have persevered until now.
(2) There is a provision in the regulations for the issuance of the manuscript fee: if the monthly manuscript fee does not reach 200RMB, it will be accumulated to the next month.
What does this mean?
The meaning is very simple, that is, if the author's manuscript fee for this book does not reach 200 RMB, the author will not get a penny of manuscript fees.
This manuscript fee will not be paid to the author until the author's manuscript fee for this book has accumulated more than 200RMB.
Xiao Yan is unfortunate. I wrote one year and three months, 540,000 words. So far, the manuscript fee has not reached 200 RMB.
Not long ago, Xiao Yan silently used the computer to calculate. In this year and three months, the cumulative manuscript fee for this book is more than 160 RMB, that is to say, there is still a gap of more than 400 RMB from the standard of 200 RMB for the manuscript fee.
Speaking of which, there are so many reasons mentioned above, in fact, Xiao Yan only wants to say one sentence:
It's the end of the year, and it's ironic that I haven't seen a penny for a year, but I haven't seen a penny.
In order not to make himself too shabby, Xiao Yan decided that starting from 2018, Xiao Yan must insist on updating chapters of at least 3,000 words a day.
Not for anything else... Because according to the rules of Dianniang, I guarantee more than 3,000 words of updates every day for a month, so that I can receive the most basic full attendance~ (crying faint)
However, in addition to the above today, Xiao Yan has one more important thing to say:
It is... In the remaining half of this month, I hope that all readers can greatly help you.
If you really like this book, come to the mother's station to support Xiao Yan, vote, and reward something.
Xiao Yan doesn't have much to ask for, as long as you let Xiao Yan see the legendary manuscript fee next month.
If you are readers, the remaining half a month is enough. Xiao Yan will also be even more powerful from next month - from the 3,000 party to the 6,000 party!
The daily update has been upgraded from 3,000 words to 6,000 words!
Don't doubt that Xiao Yan doesn't have the strength, Xiao Yan shows a little bit here.
Xiao Yan's hand speed is about 1,000 to 2,000 words an hour, and even in the case of a card plot, 6,000 words Xiao Yan only needs to spend four or five hours to complete.
So, readers, if you really want to watch it, please give it more strength in the remaining half a month!
PS: Even if none of the above can impress some readers, if you read the current chapters of this book, you must have found that some of the content that appears later in this book is a bit mysterious, right?
For those mysterious things, readers, do you want to know the specific operation process?
In other words, how true and how fake this book is, do you want to know?
The answer to everything is in the following content......
