Chapter 325, very short of money

The Homeland Chinese Network was originally founded by Li He in the 1999 school season as the "Homeland Road" forum, and he himself does not remember when it was launched. However, he fixed the date of the establishment of the home network on October 31, 1999, because the last day of October was Mulberry's birthday.

The first two signed authors of the homeland Chinese network, the first is Li He himself, and the second is Mulberry.

Although Sang Quinoa now refuses to write online articles, Li He hangs her photo on the homepage of the website, and hangs her history as the earliest signed author of the homeland network, she is the well-deserved creation goddess of the homeland Chinese network. No matter how big the site grows in the future, no matter how fierce the later authors are, the status of the goddess is unshakable.

Li He's current plan is to launch the paid reading of the homeland Chinese website on October 31 this year, as a gift to the third anniversary of the establishment of the website, which is also the first anniversary of the establishment of the group company, of course, it is also Li He's birthday gift to Sang Quinoa. However, he still keeps Mulberry secret, including Mulberry's commemorative propaganda plan as the goddess of the homeland network.

For paid reading, Li He has been mentioning and planning for a long time, and now a lot of preparatory work has been completed, although some people still have doubts in their hearts, but no matter what, the boss has decided to do it, and everyone will work hard to do it.

In fact, for the original webmasters and editors of Homeland.com, Li He has always occupied a very important position in their minds, and it can be said that they respect him very much and love him very much. This kind of support has nothing to do with his age, in fact, everyone often forgets that Li He's age is actually only 20 years old, in their minds, Li He is the pillar of the homeland network, and this feeling seems to be a long, long time.

In fact, from Li He's own way of creating his homeland, to cooperating with several station owners who originally created the Phantom Sword, and then to pulling several founders of Dianniang over, Li He gave them a platform to realize their dreams, so that they have always had the most stable environment compared with many people with the same illusions during this period, and Li He has never stopped transfusing the website in the past two years, and even in order to maintain the purity of the website, he has been rejecting those non-standard advertisements, and the salary of the website staff and the author's remuneration have to spend a lot of money every year。

At this time, it is only a few authors who can get thousands of manuscript fees a month, but in the past two years, the income and expenditure of the website have never been balanced. Li He almost maintains the status of this website at any cost, and the lack of sufficient hematopoietic capacity has also made these website owners and editors unable to raise their heads, not to mention in the group company, even on the side of the technology company.

So when it comes to fee plans, editors are now more active, and although they are still worried and skeptical, they are now more eager than anyone else to make a comeback.

In terms of technology, they have updated and improved the version of the home network, the classification is more refined, the interface is more tidy, and the reader's reading collection is more convenient, and the interface has been made the best, which has also become the benchmark of all subsequent websites, and has truly become the existence of "has been imitated and never surpassed".

In terms of writer resources, because of Li He's unpredictable prophet, Jiayuan.com used other websites at this stage can't, and is not willing to offer remuneration and extra-long and costly contracts to attract a group of later gods, at this time, sitting in the conference room of Jiayuan.com, that is, the first batch of writers who entered the paid reading of Jiayuan.com, were all sent by Li He to their respective cities to pick up, and after arriving in Guangyin City, they arranged to live in the best hotel next to the company.

For them in 2002, who were far from becoming gods, such treatment was simply flattering to them.

At this time, they don't know what kind of influence they will have in the future, writing is even just a hobby for them, because they want to write, so they write, there is a website for them to publish, at the beginning, someone still counts how many clicks have been added every day, and a few readers have left footprints in the comment area, and then the website also recommended their works, and there are column editors to exchange opinions with them, and then their works have received more and more attention, and then they also get the manuscript fee.

At the beginning, the manuscript fee was a few hundred yuan a month at most, and some authors themselves were not short of money, so they should use this manuscript fee to enjoy themselves with their friends, while some authors regarded these hundreds of dollars as a "huge amount of money" obtained through writing for the first time in their lives. After earning more than 1,000 a month, compared with the salary income at that time, it was equivalent to finding a job that was not too bad. When the monthly income exceeds 3,000, some authors are thinking about giving up their original jobs, or not looking for other jobs, so they rely on manuscript fees to eat.

A series of actions such as personal pick-up, staying in a luxury hotel, and personal interviews with the boss have made the authors, who are still full of ideals and ambitions, and are also full of enthusiasm for literature and words, have an unprecedented creative fighting spirit, and an impulse to repay the boss's kindness with the best works.

They were just surprised, and what was unexpected was that the boss who gave them the greatest trust and let them see the infinite possibilities turned out to be so young and so handsome.

Li He, who appeared in front of the writers, was wearing a navy blue slim custom suit, looking very well-proportioned and very energetic, and he didn't deliberately pretend to be old, so he looked really young. When Editor-in-Chief Li, who had already met with the writers, told everyone that this was the boss of the Jiayuan Group, the writers, without exception, were surprised. It is inevitable to guess that he is just the heir of a big family, and he is only here to "level up".

Fortunately, Li He looks like he still feels very kind when he talks, in everyone's opinion, even if he is a rich second generation who comes to level up, at least he is a rich second generation who is easy to get along with. Everyone also noticed that there was a female secretary standing next to him wearing a suit and a ponytail, looking slim, the female secretary was tall and handsome, and she was very beautiful, and the important thing was that her eyes were particularly clear, not as sharp as those women who had been tested in the workplace for a long time.

The female secretary next to Li He is Zhao Jinzhu, Zhao Jinzhu has just finished the college entrance examination, and her academic performance is very good, which is more than enough for the city university she filled in. And before the end of the college entrance examination, she learned that her father Zhao Mo had been commuted, and Zhao Mo, who was originally sentenced to eight years, had his sentence reduced to five years, but now half of his sentence has passed and he will be released from prison soon. After the college entrance examination, Zhao Jinzhu took the initiative to ask to come to Li He's company for an internship and help him do things, Li He did not refuse her, and he couldn't find a reason why he must refuse her.

Zhao Jinzhu is indeed very talented, of course she can't help Li He deal with documents now, but she can keep Li He's office in order, help him arrange time, answer the phone, including this writer's meeting, which was also arranged by her and Editor-in-Chief Li. In order to implement Li He's request and send special people to meet these writers, she also gathered the secretaries of all departments of the company who can speak well, image, temperament and action ability with the support of Li He's chief secretary Zuo Cang'er, and formed a special reception group to arrange the entire conference in an orderly manner.

Although they couldn't figure out what Zhao Jinzhu's identity was for a while, from the fact that she was an intern secretary who had just finished the college entrance examination, she could be responsible for such an important conference affairs, and their keen sense of smell in the workplace told them that maintaining a good relationship with this little girl must be of great benefit to them.

Soon they found that their speculation was correct, because when the meeting officially began, their boss Li He called Zhao Jinzhu to his side and went to the meeting with him, and this meeting had a high level of secrecy.

However, they know that Zhao Jinzhu is not the boss's wife, the company's people, they have not seen it with their own eyes, and they also know the existence of mulberry quinoa, Zhao Jinzhu is not the boss's wife, but it is by no means the boss's partial house, not the kind of Xiao Mi with ambiguous colors, nor the boss's sister, they really can't guess Zhao Jinzhu's identity.

At this time, Zhao Jinzhu, who was racked her brains by the clerks of the reception group, didn't know, and didn't care what others guessed and talked about her, she just stood quietly behind Li He and handed him the things he needed as soon as possible. She didn't know everything Li He did, let alone understand everything, but she knew that Li He was very attentive to this meeting and attached great importance to the writers she invited, and she just had to do her best to do what she could.

"Well, thank you all for coming. Homeland with you will produce miracles. I invite you to come here today because I hope to witness the glory of our homeland with you. ”

Li He's opening remarks were sensational, but he knew that he was sensational, and the people attending the meeting, whether they were editors or writers, all inexplicably felt as if something was struggling to rush out of their veins, especially Li He's face with a smile, a smile that seemed to be a confident fan who could really see the "glory of the prosperous world".

This smile is very contagious.

Li He saw Sanshao, Shenji, Tomatoes, Potatoes, Yueguan, Skeletons, Chendong, Cat, Blood Red, Toad, Broken Blade Tianya, and so on in the conference room.

LI NINGFENG SAT IN IT UNDER THE PSEUDONYM OF CONDENSING THE WIND WORLD, LI HE THREW ZHTTY'S PIONEERING WORK "INFINITE TERROR" TO LI NINGFENG, AND AS A RESULT, LI NINGFENG COLLAPSED, LI HE DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE WOULD BE ZHTTY AND HIS INFINITE STREAM OF ONLINE TEXTS IN THIS TIME AND SPACE, ANYWAY, UNDER THE CURRENT BANNER OF THE HOMELAND NETWORK, THIS WRITER HAS NOT YET APPEARED. Later, Li He and Li Ningfeng preemptively sent out the historical text of the angel Oscar, Li Ningfeng's talent may not be as good as Oscar, but he writes history very easily, plus the creativity that Li He gave him, it seems that there will be no more Oscars in this time and space, and even if it appears, it probably appears in another style, right?

Together with "1911 New China" written by Li Ningfeng, the works of a total of 12 writers are the first batch of paid works created by Jiayuan.com. In another time and space, when Dian Niang first started to charge, she almost relied on the wandering toad to survive the most difficult period alone, and Li He has now collected 12 gods who later went to the altar, and the confidentiality work in the early stage is very good, and the writers' contracts are also perfect, on the one hand, the full sincerity and generous treatment of the homeland network are not available on other websites, they will not go, on the other hand, the restrictions in the contract are very detailed, once they break the contract and jump to other websites, the consequences are also unbearable for them.

Li He doesn't know what kind of impact these future gods will have on the future online literature industry if he pushes these future gods to the altar now, but he doesn't have to have the benefits of rebirth, waiting for them to grow up slowly, in this changed time and space, maybe they won't appear again, maybe they will appear, and they won't come to the banner of the homeland, in that case, it will be a great loss to Li He, to the homeland, to these gods and readers.

Li He looked at the future god with fighting spirit burning in his eyes, and then said: "From today, the company will work with you to create myths, and on October 31, the website will launch a paid reading plan, and your new books will be launched as VIP works, and readers can only read your latest chapters by paying." I am full of confidence in your work, in the influence of the website, and in this major change that can be called a revolution in the online literature industry.

Now, all you have to do is to concentrate on your work, and with the help of the editor, refine the outline of the work, and send out some of the public chapters that are free to read, during which the site will ensure that everyone's work will always remain on the hottest list, and the number of hits and favorites will surpass your best records. After it is put on the shelves, everyone's income will also rise sharply, and my goal is to make everyone a god in one book and create a prosperous era of online literature.

In the next few months, the company will provide you with the most intimate service to ensure that you can write smoothly. You can also choose to stay at the hotel, and everything else will be arranged for you except writing and exercising. If you need to create at home, the company will also meet your life requirements and help you relieve your worries. The company has only one requirement, create, create as much as possible, use the most attractive plot to make readers inseparable from you, and then after it is put on the shelves, use the most open update speed to let readers fall deeper and deeper. The world's online texts are only fast and not broken, so accumulating enough manuscripts to keep them updated as quickly as possible will be the only way for you to become gods. ”

It turned out that everyone was summoned, not only for meetings and travel, but also for the boss, hoping that everyone would simply stay in the hotel in the next few months, and concentrate on creation without all distractions. At the moment, many people think that this is also very good, after all, it is undoubtedly much more efficient to put aside all the miscellaneous things and devote themselves to creation.

"Mr. Li, is this going to make us quit our jobs and write full-time? With the current manuscript fee of the website, I don't care, but in this way, it is equivalent to cutting off the way back. The company is responsible for the last few months, but what happens after a few months?

"After a few months, your cut will make you feel that your old job is no longer worth remembering, and you will never ask me such questions again. Let's put it this way, I can buy out your new book right now, and let you live with peace of mind for two years with a large amount of manuscript fees, but in reality this is unfair to you, because the buyout fee will be far less than the share you receive. Want to try a buyout?"

"Haha, no, I believe what Mr. Li said, I also want to see the prosperity of that prosperous world with my own eyes, when I think of such prosperity and my creation, I can't wait to start coding words. ”

"How do readers pay?"

"At the current stage, due to the limitation of technical capabilities, readers are mainly paid through physical recharge cards, and we have reached agreements with several of the most popular online game publishers, and their game recharge point cards are also used as reading point cards for Home.com. The company's science and technology department is also developing its own game, and we will have our own card in the next step. You can also imagine that in the next few years, your work will become an online game, which will mean that your pen will really give birth to a world.

We are also cooperating with banks to develop a direct charging system, and when the conditions are ripe, we will also develop a mobile payment system. ”

When he had just confirmed his rebirth, Li He thought about waiting until the online game market opened, and he would learn from other people's protagonists and make some plug-ins to make money. Unconsciously, he has returned to this time and space for the fifth year, and at this time, he no longer regards making plug-ins as his goal, he wants to develop his own online games.

Of course, Li He also has a clear understanding of online games, with the existing strength of his home technology, it is not too difficult to develop an online game, but it is difficult to say how big the market can be, after all, there are many successful domestic online games, but there are more failures. And in the past few years, it has also been the world of Korean travel. But even if you can't do it well, you can try to represent those online games that are very popular in Li He's memory.

For example, after becoming the memory of a generation of Warcraft, Li He knew that his homeland technology could not develop such a game in a short period of time, but if it couldn't be developed, couldn't it be an agent? Li He knew very well how popular Warcraft was after the open beta in China, and how profitable it was, since he knew, what else was going on in Jiucheng?

He must not be allowed to have.

However, this game has not yet appeared, and all Li He has to do is to accumulate strength and wait for it to appear. In order to seize the opportunity in the fierce competition in the future, Li He also knows that his strength is insufficient.

If in his previous life, someone said in front of Li He that his entire net worth was about to add up to hundreds of millions, but he was still very, very short of money, Li He would definitely give the other party two middle fingers, but now Li He really feels that he is very short of money.

Very.
