Chapter 1017

Speaking of which, this is also expected, foreign readers have long been accustomed to paid reading, and piracy does not dare to be as rampant as in China, so the effect is better than that in China.

However, the sudden rise of online literature has had a great impact on those traditional writers.

Because of the fast-paced nature of online literature, fast-food literature, it is very much in line with the current fast-paced life.

And online literature, which is full of various fantasies, is more in line with the public's taste than traditional literature.

After the initial success of Qidian Literature International Station, many capitals also saw the business opportunities, especially those physical publishers, in fact, they still look down on those online literature, because, compared with traditional literature, online literature has too many things that can be criticized.

And the boom of online literature has also dealt a huge blow to the publishing industry, because they suddenly found that the public's tastes have changed.

Although it is not like the publishing industry in China, it has begun to decline when the Internet age arrives, in the past publishing industry, in the publishing of literary works and other books, because foreign countries pay more attention to copyright, piracy is relatively less, so they control the content in their hands, and if you want to read books, you can still only buy books.

But now it's different, the authors of online literature are ten times more than traditional writers, and their works are even more diverse.

To read a book, a mobile phone or an e-book, a tablet is sufficient.

In fact, just like literary films and commercial films, the works of traditional writers, except for some best-selling authors, the works of most writers can be regarded as literary films, while online literature is a commercial film through and through.

One is to cater to the taste of the public, and the speed of writing is fast, and the other one, a work may take a year or two years to come out.

Moreover, online literature also has the advantage of interacting with the author, while traditional literary works, unless the author engages in a signing party, otherwise, there is no opportunity to interact with the author at all.

What era is it now? In the Internet era, the emphasis is on social interaction and interaction, and it is no longer a trend to do things behind closed doors.

Publishers are not going to sit still.

In fact, after the advent of the Internet era, they also kept pace with the times and launched paid e-books, which also put those works on the Internet and allowed readers to pay to read.

And the effect is extremely gratifying, but they still follow the same model as in the past, and generally the physical books are almost sold before they launch e-books.

And they all have a common feature, that is, they are not works that are serialized online.

Because for a traditional writer, they can't write a book like an online writer, and they have to update it every day.

In fact, although online literature is on the rise, most publishers do not believe that it can replace traditional writers and become mainstream.

But I have to say that online literature is indeed a big piece of cake.

How could they not be tempted?

However, they still look down on those grassroots online writers, in their view, online literature is to let writers serialize on the Internet.

In this regard, they must be full of advantages.

There are countless signed writers under the Alien Group, and many of them are best-selling authors, and in their opinion, any one of these people is much higher than the forced qualifications of those grassroots writers.

It's just that these writers are not so easy to handle.

Because they are all well-known writers, it is naturally impossible for them to sign a sharing agreement if they go to the xenomorph website to serialize, after all, they are not those grassroots writers who are not famous.

And the money for the online serialization is honest, and many well-known best-selling authors really don't like it.

Therefore, it can only be carried out by buying out the network copyright.

As soon as the Alien Literature Network opened, a large number of well-known writers who joined the website were announced, and a grand signing ceremony was held.

I have to say that the appeal of these best-selling authors is still very strong.

Brown is one of the best-selling authors in North America, and his works not only sell well, but also have been adapted into film and television works, and he has many fans.

At its peak, his works sold tens of millions of copies.

In the English-speaking region, he is definitely a well-known writer.

He also paid attention to online literature, especially the works on Qidian literature, but soon he stopped paying attention to them, because those works were not literary works in his eyes.

Brown and the Alien have signed a new contract, and the new book will be serialized on the Alien Literature Network.

As a traditional publishing giant, Alien Group is backed by big capital, and it is naturally impossible to engage in online reading this time.

Seeing that relying on grassroots online writers and relying on works that do not have much connotation can get such high returns, what if these writers are all well-known writers? What kind of power will erupt?

So the Alien Literature Network spent a huge amount of money to buy out the new works of thousands of well-known traditional writers and let them be serialized on the Alien Literature Network.

Publishing giants have entered the Internet reading market, which is naturally very popular.

Nearly 10,000 well-known writers settled in at the same time, which is definitely big news, and many media outlets have reported the good news.

Many media have analyzed the publishing giant Alien and established an online literature platform of the same name, which has a great advantage over Qidian Literature Network.

First of all, each of these writers has countless fans, many of which even have millions of fans, which is a huge advantage in itself.

Nowadays, the popularity of all the authors combined, such appeal is simply difficult to estimate.

Another advantage is that the works of these well-known writers are definitely far behind in terms of quality compared to the works of grassroots people in Qidian literature.

The latter is completely incomparable to the former.

Therefore, they expressed that they were very optimistic about the action of the alien body, and many people who ate melons were also stunned by the alien body's big money for a while.

Of course, many people like to see this, especially those media in the West, although online literature has just emerged, and some small websites have appeared, it can still be said that Qidian Literature is dominant.

At such a time, the addition of the traditional publishing giant Alien Form, such competition is naturally very popular, after all, no one likes monopoly.

The ordinary petty fight is obviously not the opponent of Qidian Literature, but this time the action of the alien body can be called a shock.

So it's no surprise that they would have such an opinion!

After all, the popularity of those traditional writers is enough to usher in a huge amount of traffic.
