Chapter XXXIX: The Thirteenth Fleet

Fang Anxin picked up the signed book and said to her brother: "The first books have the special invisible ink stamp of the first release of Sisyphus Bookstore, don't you know?"

"Who knows? And with invisible ink, isn't it easy to see? It should be seen under ultraviolet light?"

"That's right, UV light. Since two or three years ago, I started playing like this before tomorrow, and old book friends know it. There are more seniors than seniors in the book friend circle, and it is needless to say who is a real fan. Otherwise, I won't send you to buy books for me. ”

Fang Antong said: "That Yue Qingyan is full of eyes. Looks like a good guy. ”

"He shouldn't be uncommon for you to send him a good person card. Fang Anxin said with a smile. She put down her book, and the electric wheelchair swiped across the room to her workbench on the other side. On the open Huakang Xindi 27-inch pen display, there is a drawing that is still in progress. "When the third volume was released, there was a readers' meeting, and I was going to attend. ”

"Are you drawing this picture for the reader's meeting?" and are you going to type it out and give it to him?" Fang Antong said.

The picture is very homely, homely, in the middle of a living room surrounded by bookshelves, there is a large enough table, and Yang Willy sits on the table, with black tea, whiskey, and cookies in hand. Julian was cleaning the room, looking at his expression, and he was quite dissatisfied with Admiral Yang.

"yes, I'm drawing slowly, it's been almost a month and I haven't finished it. Fang Anxin said: "However, anyway, I don't know when the readers' exchange meeting will be, so I'm not in a hurry." ”

"The third volume should be on the market in two weeks, the person in front of the Ming Dynasty said today. Fang Antong said: "It seems that the decision to animate is also coming soon." However, there should be no plans for live-action movies and film and television dramas. ”

"It's not strange. Fang Anxin said: "With Jin Yuan carrying it greatly, the level of art can be regarded as supporting it." I have a lot of contact with Jin Yuan, but he doesn't know that I'm from the book club, he only knows that I'm a fan. The comic team has also been decided, and the main writer and script writer are all members of the book club. ”

"You ...... infiltrated the entire creative system of "Yinying"?" Fang Antong was a little scared. Isn't his sister a genius who works underground?

"Not exactly. They're book lovers first and foremost. The script writer is the attacking Filetliga, haha, I didn't expect it. The poisonous tongue boss came out to write the script, and this ID was specially opened. Fang Antong said: "The main writer of the comic should be Daejeon, Tian Yongji's team. His ID in the fleet is a gunwald. ”

"You guys are amazing. Fang Antong had a headache.

Most of these people are young people in their teens and twenties, and the older ones are in their thirties. There are quite a few well-known creators in text, comics, illustrations, art design, etc. Although none of these people are big names, they all have some fans, and their combined influence is considerable. "Yinying" has the influence it has now, and the collective push of this gang and the endless Amway have played a considerable role.

"What are you going to do next?" Fang Antong actually didn't worry much about the censorship and public opinion of "Yinying" at all, and now it seems that at least a large part of the relevant public opinion is in the hands of the Thirteenth Fleet.

What happened to the real-name report? He no longer has to guess who is chasing the book, and someone dares to stop the serialization of "Yinying" today, and the next day he will be annoyed to death by the inexplicable pressure.

"I'm ready to contact Ming Qian, but now the scale is too big, and if it doesn't match the official resources, it will be a little difficult to develop in the future. We are ready to integrate our own resources and official links to get the sharing rights and interests of some art and design resources. In this way, our own economic system is established. For some official activities, we can also participate in the organization or even lead the organization of offline activities. A few friends even said that we would contract this part of the business. In addition to "Yinying", we may be able to use a similar model to operate other works in the future. Fang Anxin said.

"That's your idea, isn't it?" asked his brother, who knew his sister too well, "This style is too much like yours." ”

"Because, although the fans come quickly, it is really not easy to sustain them in the long run. On the one hand, there is love, and on the other hand, time and money, both of which are to be concentrated to form an effective interaction mechanism. Fans Amway fans, and you can't engage in a grading system, this has become a pyramid marketing organization. But if fans keep giving and don't get anything in return, it won't last long. It's just that the rewards that fans are asking for are not necessarily money, but influence, status and recognition among fans, and some signs that show seniority or something. You see, I have the launch ceremony version of the autograph book in my hand, and that's amazing. Moreover, fans actually have their own time, energy, skills and resources, and they can do more and bigger things when integrated, how to use these things, and how to give back to these contributions?"

Fang Anxin sighed and said, "It's so troublesome." Giving and giving back are equal, that's one thing. But when rewarding fans with resources and money, you can't let other ordinary fans be ignored. Otherwise, you won't be able to play. How to do a good job of this complex model, and how to specifically plan the operation process, to empower users, is really super difficult. ”

Fang Antong was almost on his knees. It's just a fan organization, is it already so complicated? There are so many situations involved, and there are mathematical models? Just what Fang Anxin just said, if they are sorted out and can really form an effective system, it will be a model case.

"One word comes to mind...... I guess there's a connection. ”

"Blockchain?" Fang Anxin sneered, "We've been researching it for a long time." The laboratory department of the 13th Fleet has two applied mathematics and a dozen programmers. We're almost done with the initial model development. ”

", you're really a fan group, you feel like you're starting a business, how about letting your parents cast an angel round?"

"Don't. We can do it on our own. There is now zero expenditure on manpower and labour. Fang Anxin grinned: "In the final analysis, no matter how much the book club plays, it is non-profit." As I said earlier, selling and sucking is the limit. It's okay to make money on this. ”

The Thirteenth Fleet still relies on Weibo and WeChat public accounts to release news. On the night of the launch ceremony, the two platforms announced a number of big photos of the "Banquet Fire", as well as detailed photos of the entire launch ceremony. There are also those news released by the company before tomorrow.

Everyone generally says that this author looks good, he's very good to fans, and he's not ugly, and he's not an obsessive dead house author, but a fan of some young scholars. But think about it, although "Yinying" is not history, too many of it are written in a very "historical style", and the sense of heaviness and reality is extremely strong. If you don't have enough academic foundation, I'm afraid you won't be able to write such an article.

In addition to these news, what makes readers and fans even more excited is that on the night of the press conference, the biography "Hundreds of Billions of Stars, Hundreds of Billions of Light" was announced on the Internet to thank readers, and at the same time, two 4K-level definition wallpapers painted by Jin Yuan were also given, full of sincerity. The readership screamed, feeling that it was such a blessing to be treated so well by the publisher and the author. The biography of "Hundreds of Billions of Stars" was written by Reinhardt and Yang Willy at the age of 18, and the timeline is several years before the start of the main story, which is full of cute points.

After the emergency communication between the book club and the senior management of the company before Ming, the news of the next readers' meeting was also disclosed in advance. Originally, the company was going to rent the library's multimedia activity room to hold the event, but later the statistics found that the enthusiasm of the book lovers was underestimated, and the venue was definitely not enough, so it rented the cultural square to hold the event instead, preparing to find an afternoon when there was no performance there. The venue is divided into three floors, with private rooms and can accommodate several thousand people. On the one hand, the hall on the first floor alone should be about the same, but in case the surface explodes, there is also a margin for buffering. The on-site management of this kind of venue has enough experience for fans and for high-traffic personnel. Even for the interaction on and off the stage, there are mature cases that can be referred to.

Of course, the venue rental fee is not cheap, but it can't resist the willingness of the company to spend money before the Ming Dynasty, and the cultural square is also willing to reduce the price, and the two sides hit it off.

The quota for participating in the book club will be divided into two channels: open and targeted distribution. The 13th Fleet received 40 percent of the total quota.

Soon, Yue Qingyan knew about the situation. He sighed a little that now, the content distribution channels of the content industry have really changed dramatically. Every author is concerned about operating fans, in addition to maintaining their own popularity and gaining more recognition, more is of course for the greater good.

"I want to meet the person in charge of the Thirteenth Fleet, can you help me get in touch?" Yue Qingyan immediately called Xu Yingying after learning about it.

"Well, yes. Xu Yingying was surprised: "They have a very close relationship with us now, I'll go and ask, and then pull a group, you make an appointment yourself?"

"That's fine. Yue Qingyan thought of something: "I always said that I wanted to find an assistant, but now should be the time." Xiao Mo is dying of haste now. It can't go on like this. You will help me send out the recruitment? Is it okay for the personnel relationship to hang up tomorrow? I will bear the relevant expenses. ”

"These are the little things. Okay, I'll do it, you wait for the news. Xu Yingying smiled and hung up the phone.

For Yue Qingyan, on the one hand, through this fight between fans and other authors, on the other hand, fan-related things are too complicated, and Mo Ersheng really can't bear it. In addition, it is also because it is a little slow to learn about various situations and dynamics through the publisher anyway.

The window time for all kinds of fights, wars, opportunities and news in the cultural circle is very short, and Yue Qingyan must have enough reaction speed and enough execution. After all, his influence has gradually reached a certain line, and the chance of being involved in various things in the future is only higher.
