Chapter Twenty-Eight: Feng Shui Rotates
Burn money to burn money, as the name suggests, you can only burn if you have money. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Kong Decheng's first thought was to find new capital to inject into Huanjian.
The increase in the number of authors is a good thing in the long run, a large number of middle and low-level writers are the real cornerstone of online novels, as long as they can survive this period of time, and wait for a group of authors to grow up, there is a lot to be done in the future.
But it soon became clear that this path was completely impassable!
First of all, it is a bottomless pit to give benefits to all authors. I don't know how long it will last, how many new authors will come in, and what kind of rewards these authors will bring in the future.
Kong Decheng can't answer any of these questions from investors.
Especially the last question: future returns. Do you expect a handful of thousands of readers to appear and receive a reward?
If you want to die or not, you still have to blame Ze Yue! Before the emergence of Zeyue, the capital's judgment on the value of online novel websites was mainly website traffic, but after Zeyue launched a reward system, capital found that online novels could also make money, although not much, at least there was a way to make money, resulting in the valuation of capital, no longer 100% based on traffic.
The second point is the most deadly.
If you want to invest in online novels, why should capital choose Huanjian? Capital is hot money, the biggest feature is more red top white, put the thriving Zeyue Chinese network does not invest, but invests in the burnt sword?
Ze Yue's current size is not as good as Huanjian, but compared to before, Ze Yue is more like a young man in the development period, healthy and strong, while Ze Yue is a bloated and fat man who is sick. It is self-evident that the quality of investment is better or worse.
The financing was not raised, but the money was about to bottom, and as a last resort, Huanjian could only introduce a new policy.
Kong Decheng almost gritted his teeth to make the decision, and he also knew very well how terrifying the negative impact of this policy would be once it was issued.
But there is really no way, continue to spend money, not to mention selling the house, he can't afford the little money he has on hand.
In light of the recent surge in authors, and out of a sense of accountability to authors, the site will re-collect data and plan for a better welfare system. From now on, the benefits for new authors will be temporarily suspended until the construction of the new welfare system is completed, and then they will be reissued......
The old authors from before are still the same, and the benefits of the new authors are suspended.
Although it is said that it will be 'suspended' and will be 'reissued' in the future, the website is still scolded.
The previous publicity was overwhelming, how good Huanjian is, how suitable it is for new authors, and it has only been a few days, and the benefits have actually been suspended? Who knows when the new welfare system will be built?
When giving money, everyone is smiling, and they have tasted the sweetness of taking money, and suddenly say that they will not give it, which is more serious than not giving money from the beginning!
The new author has a huge psychological gap and begins to scold his mother, and the old author can't help but worry, is the new welfare system good or bad? Huanjian's welfare is not as good as Zeyue's, in case it is weaker, then there is really no sweetness at all to stay in Huanjian.
In the Huanjian website and some novel-related forums on the Internet, a group of netizens suddenly pointed the finger at Huanjian and the starting point, especially on the Longkong Forum, which is famous for its online novel reviews, the page was almost full of accusations against the two websites.
"If you don't have material freedom, you might as well ask for food"
"The propaganda is so wild, it is irresponsible to deceive the author into writing a book"
"The result of the money burning war has appeared: the capital flow at the beginning of Huanjian is broken, and I have to break my word and get fat"
"It is rumored that Kong Decheng, the boss of Huanjian, has begun to withdraw his capital and is ready to sell Huanjian......"
"I estimate that after the starting point and Huanjian, I will have to follow the old path of Zeyue and sign a contract"
"How can these two websites follow the trend and eat the leftover steamed buns from others?"
"If you don't say that Zeyue's Zhao is always the godfather of online novels, you look at people, just introduce a policy, and follow the trend to imitate a large number of people, whoever doesn't learn, who can't live!"
……
There are many rumors, and there are all kinds of things, and the red and blue groups under the army have once again done the old business of the navy.
Most of the authors of Huanjian and Qidian didn't have much strength in the first place, and now they are even more panicked, and they can't write books with peace of mind, but instead focus most of their energy on discussion.
On the website, there are many new books that are interrupted, taken off, updated with a reduced number of words, and even hastily ended.
From a certain point of view, Zhao Zejun's secret attack this time has promoted the prosperity of the Longkong Forum.
On the contrary, Zeyue, who was scolded bloodied before, became the only reef standing in the storm.
The red group and the blue group under Junzi, while targeting Huanjian and the starting point, did not forget to support Zeyue in turn.
"If you don't pay, how can you get anything?"
"Zeyue is not a charity, why should he send money to the author for no reason?"
"Zeyue's welfare is getting better and better, and I see that the old man is very red-eyed......"
In fact, on the other hand, signing a contract is equivalent to protecting the interests of the author. As long as the contract is signed, the website must give benefits to the author, and it is impossible to stop like Huanjian, ...... stop"
Later, it was not only the people under the army who were posting to build momentum, but most of the positive posts were spontaneously written by the online writers who benefited from Zeyue.
Many people wake up and want to make some money, but they still have to go to Zeyue. Anyway, Mr. Zhao of Zeyue, the godfather of online novels, once recently let go of the words, welcome new writers, and the writers who left Zeyue, and return to Zeyue.
But now Zeyue has a new change.
Not all writers can sign a contract, after the book is issued with 30,000 words, the editor will review it, and according to the quality of the novel, the contract will be selectively signed.
Many people only then remembered that when Zeyue first implemented the signing system, there was a paragraph in the announcement, which roughly meant that those who submitted for signing at that time could be passed; After that, the website will selectively sign up for the book based on the quality of the book......
The group of people who went at the beginning will regret their intestines! Damn, what kind of slot is it to jump to the end, I signed a contract at the time, and now I will receive a few hundred yuan a month for drought and flood, which is stable.
It's okay now, the situation of the new owner is unknown, maybe it's going to be sold when it will be, and even the basic benefits can't be sent.
Rao is like this, and there are still many people who choose Zeyue.
In the past, as long as everyone saw the constraints of Zeyue's contract on the author, but after this incident, the other side of the contract is security, as long as you have the ability to sign a contract in Zeyue, the welfare is legally guaranteed.
Besides, people have the ability to judge, and after a few months of fighting, it is now self-evident which website is more trustworthy and promising.
There was a lot of chaos, Kong Decheng finally couldn't sit still, and took the initiative to contact the family members at the starting point, and the two sides bumped heads.
Huanjian is uncomfortable, and the starting point is also uncomfortable. It's just that because Huanjian has been the leader in the industry for many years, and the starting point is only a new rise, the attention is far less than that of Huanjian.
What Kong Decheng didn't know was that what was really unlucky in this world was actually the starting point.
