Chapter 224: The Ambition to Set Sail

The news that it is going to set sail into the international arena has been released not long ago, but there is no clear notice of the specific opening date.

Regarding why he set sail for this international station, Zhao Qian also knows a little about it.

Since last year, the Internet has unexpectedly become popular abroad, and more and more foreigners like to watch the Internet.

One of the English stations focusing on translating domestic online texts, after changing its name to "uxiaorld" (martial arts world), attracted millions of readers from more than 100 countries around the world, including North America, Western Europe, and Southeast Asia, with an average daily page traffic of more than 3 million, ranking 1320 on the website click rate list around the world, which is almost the same as 1170 that set sail.

You must know that it took fifteen years of hard work to set sail to achieve the current scale of the website, but a small website on the other side actually has so much traffic.

As a result, such a sudden station has attracted the attention of Sailing.

The top management of Qihang first proposed to acquire the martial arts world, but was rejected by the other party. Later, the two sides reached an agreement, and Martial Arts World purchased the authorization of 20 serialized translations from Qihang.

It needs to be stated that this "martial arts world" overseas, it did not get the genuine authorization of Qihang at the beginning, that is to say, it is an English piracy website.

Although readers pay translators, the money does not go to the authors, and only one or two translators are willing to pay royalties to the original authors. (Later, the two translators jumped ship to the international station where they set sail and were called traitors.) )

If things go on like this, both sides will be safe. For a long time, both sides have ushered in a period of rapid development.

The focus of setting sail is still at home, although the foreign market is large, but the road is not so easy to walk, and the current domestic set sail is also surrounded by enemies.

However, Qihang found that in addition to the 20 authorized works, some other works that had not purchased copyright were also translated and serialized on it, and immediately asked the other party to remove the unauthorized translation, but the other party refused. The two sides completely fell out, and Qihang said that he would sue the court for infringement in the martial arts world, and the martial arts world also stated that it would sue Qihang.

At the same time, Qihang was also attacked by DDOS from abroad, which caused the server to be paralyzed for a while. Afterwards, the website announcement stated that these DDOS attacks came from the martial arts world.

The martial arts world retorted that it was also attacked, and it was from the side that set sail.

Both sides have their own opinions.

Therefore, Qihang decided to make an international station by himself.

After reading the post, Zhao Qian fell into deep thought, if it is really possible to promote the network abroad, it would be a good thing.

From the individual level, it can open up new channels to increase the income of authors, from the company level, it is conducive to the global layout of Qihang, creating Oriental Disney and Marvel-level IP, and from the national level, it can export culture to the outside world so that more foreigners can understand Oriental culture.

Therefore, this point is still worth supporting, even if it really relies on free popularity in the early stage.

It's just that the yellow network has proved that there is only a dead end for the Internet to engage in free, and the high-level of setting sail expects foreigners' brain circuits to be different from those of Chinese people?

The future is uncertain!

……

"Zhao Xiaoqian, the meal is ready! Come and help me get the bowl!"

Li Wanqing's voice came from the kitchen.

"Got it!" Zhao Qian hurriedly put down his phone.

The matter of setting sail for the international station can be slowed down first, the world is big, and the meal is the biggest!

After eating, she took a bath, watched TV, played with the computer, and Li Wanqing cooked the rice balls for supper.

Today, on the 15th, fireworks are being set off in many places outside, and most of the night sky is bright. Although fireworks are prohibited in the southern capital, there will be a place where the group organizes fireworks, and you can sit in front of the window and enjoy the fireworks while eating the Lantern Festival.

Looking back, Li Wanqing was calling her mother.

Zhao Qian had already called the family during the day, so he asked his parents about their physical condition, how the family was doing, and there were not many topics to talk about.

The next day.

After the update, Zhao Qian went to the international station of Qihang to take a look, and found that the page was not done well, compared with the Chinese website of Qihang, it was far behind, and the multi-function was not perfect.

To his surprise, there was his own book on it, and it was also placed on the big recommendation on the homepage. It's just that this translation, whether it's the title of the book or the introduction, makes the English major look dizzy.

Rebirth of the?urban cultivate immortality?

it!

What the hell?!

The title of "Rebirth of the City Cultivating Immortals" is translated like this? I don't read much, don't lie to me!

For some reason, it always seems to feel full of disobedience.

"Hey, there are so many readers just starting the station?"

Zhao Qian saw that there were already several reviews in the book review area of many works, but after careful reading, he found that most of the reviews were directly given one-star reviews, and the overall rating of many books was pulled below 4 stars. The reviews are also all kinds of bad reviews, and there are even threats to set sail.

Is this a version of being slaughtered?

Zhao Qian can see that these people are all from that martial arts world, just to boycott the international station.

It seems that liking to watch piracy and free is a common problem for all mankind!

Those who say all day long that European and American countries have a good sense of copyright and that there is no piracy can wash and sleep, and it turns out that there is still piracy abroad, and it is also rampant, but the public knowledge in China does not want everyone to see it.

Sweden's "Pirate Bay", as the world's largest torrent seed server, has countless pirated resources on it, and even openly raised the banner of anti-copyright, which is much more rampant than in China after the net network.

Zhao Qian also went to see the website of the martial arts world, which was worse than Longkong, and there were a lot of eye-catching advertisements, which was speechless.

Forget it, let Qihang have a headache, be a writer yourself, at most help wave the flag and shout.

Back to the International Station, I clicked on the English version of "Urban Immortals", and after reading a few chapters, I crossed it off. It's really hard to look at, and it seems that there are a lot of grammatical errors in it.

Zhao Qian hesitated, but decided to redeem a "English Literature Knowledge Series" to improve his English level, anyway, as an English major, it would not be a loss to improve his professional knowledge.

After reading it, I found that there are indeed a lot of small problems, and it seems that this translation is not good.

He left a message for Qingsong: "Your translation level doesn't seem to be very good, I saw that the English version of "Urban Xiuxian" on the international station has a lot of grammatical errors. ”

Qingsong was speechless when he saw it, and replied: "We are not responsible for the international station, but the company has set up a new department to be responsible for management. ”

"Then you can help me reflect it with my colleagues in charge of this part of your company, and by the way, optimize the website interface, this looks so ugly now. Zhao Qian said.

Qing Song continued to be speechless and replied, "Okay." ”

After a while, Qingsong asked him again, "How is your English translation level?"
