There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention, this wall that blocks the wind deliberately reveals the sound of the wind. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The news that Huanjian was going to acquire Zeyue, Zhao Zejun released it intentionally or unintentionally, and it was transmitted to Zeyue's project team.

is also making online novels, Huanjian is the leading boss in the industry, and has been in the industry for many years, in contrast, Zeyue can only be regarded as a little brother, although this little brother looks more 'handsome', but in the mind of the little brother, he still regards the boss as an idol.

Now Huanjian takes the initiative to contact the acquisition, this is not a provocation and insult to Zeyue, on the contrary, it is the greatest affirmation and encouragement for all the people of Zeyue!

Coupled with a lot of income, the entire project team felt greatly enriched spiritually and materially, and their morale was high.

The boss is willing to spend money, and he knows how to do it, the employees are willing to work hard, and the company has no reason to be bad.

Just when the number of registrations exceeded 100,000, Zhao Zejun designed a new function for the website: rewarding.

Strictly speaking, it is around the 'tipping' function, a set of currency operation system has been established.

The website provides 'Zeyue Coins', users can recharge and get Zeyue Coin at a ratio of 1:100, and exchange one dollar for 100 coins.

Zeyue Coin has only one function in the website for the time being, which is to reward readers.

The money for the reward, after deducting the necessary taxes, the website and the author himself get half each, and accumulate to 20,000 Zeyue coins, that is, 200 yuan in cash.

At the same time, readers have a new hierarchy of apprenticeships, apprentices, and apprentices based on the amount of money spent on a book...... up to several levels such as the alliance leader.

Each time you tip, depending on the amount of the tip, you can also get additional referral tickets.

All in all, Zhao Zejun basically copied the starting point reward system in later generations. However, there is a slight change in the amount of tipping options.

The starting point of later generations used 588, 1888, and 5888 with fractional reward levels, except for the number of auspicious points, which have no special significance, but are not conducive to calculation, and Zhao Zejun simply rounded them all. With 10, 100, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000, 50000 and 100,000, eight large grades.

In addition, since there is no 'monthly pass' function for the time being, readers can get additional referral tickets after tipping.

Unexpectedly, most of the people in the project team were a little unimpressed with this 'tipping' function, which was normal in later generations.

Song Yun even directly raised objections.

To put it bluntly, the reward is that the reader directly sends money to the author, and now the online novels are all free, and I have never heard of anyone spending money to read the novel, and who will give their money to the author?

And you can see it if you don't tip, you can also watch it if you don't tip, even if you don't spend a penny, you can enjoy the same treatment, so why spend money?

Most of the members of the project team led by Song Yun are computer science and related majors, and have a relatively professional understanding of the network economy.

At present, free online is king, except for online games and some very professional counterpart services, such as Alibaba's business, most other services are free mode.

Zeyue, a nascent website, does not have much readership, and now it suddenly launches the 'tipping' function, will it backfire and scare away a group of readers who are used to being free?

The project team didn't understand, and Zhao Zejun was not surprised.

At the beginning of that year, paid reading was suddenly launched, and it was also shocked at the beginning, and it was considered to be self-defeating by the industry.

However, charging fees is the only way to formalize and industrialize online novels, and it must be taken.

However, the road has to be taken step by step, the step is too big, it is easy to pull the egg, and now the chapter VIP fee system is adopted, and the time is not yet ripe.

The purpose of launching the reward function first is to let readers and authors have a vague concept: online novels can be linked to money.

After readers and authors are accustomed to associating 'reading' with 'spending money', and Zeyue has a relatively large readership, it is logical to implement the fee system.

Moreover, the use of the reward function is conducive to improving the adhesion between readers and the website, and enhancing the interaction between readers and books.

Readers who spend money on a certain website will definitely pay more attention to the website psychologically, and if they spend money on a book, they will feel that they have also contributed to the book, become a 'shareholder', and generate a sense of ownership.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just execute. Zhao Zejun was half joking, half an order, and explained briefly, saying: "Don't worry, this tipping function is voluntary, and the worst case is nothing more than no one to tip, which will not lead to the loss of readers." ”

"Mr. Zhao, is there really someone who is willing to spend money? These options you set, apprentices and apprentices are better, as long as you reward a few yuan. But isn't this highest-level alliance leader too exaggerated, who would spend a thousand yuan to give a reward?" Song Yun thought to himself, this is almost half a month's salary of ordinary white-collar workers.

"Don't always look at the world through the eyes of the poor. Zhao Zejun laughed, "Believe me, there will definitely be." ”

……

'Blood Army' is a readership group founded by Yu Zhe himself, and the people in the group are all hardcore readers of 'Blood Cloud'.

Of course, the readers and fans of the blood cloud are far from being accommodated by a QQ group, and the blood army currently has a total of three large groups, the blood army group 1 and group 2 are full, and the 3 groups are about to be overcrowded, and the readers add together, a total of more than 1,000 people.

On the Internet, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people like to read the blood cloud book, more than 1,000 people, in the words of later generations, this is the brain-dead fans of the blood cloud, unconditionally supporting the blood cloud. It was also the backbone of the last time Xueyun and Zhuang Buzhou scolded each other.

The LV3-level reader account that appeared on the day Zeyue was launched was a well-known reader in the Scarlet 1 group, and the screen name was 'I'm really a big hooligan'.

In the Scarlet Army Group,'I'm really a big hooligan' is a limelight figure.,Usually the most energetic in the group to discuss and chat.,The most active one in the scolding war.,It is said that I am still a local tyrant.,After the blood cloud jumped ship,,It's also the first to shout that you must support.。

This day I'm really a big hooligan and logged in to my Zeyue account again,LV3After that,The account upgrade speed slowed down all of a sudden.,You have to log in every day、Read books、Voting will have points.,It took a long time to get to LV4.。

Xueyun has updated a full 12,000 words in a row today, four big chapters, just a small climax, I'm a hooligan to read it very coolly, turn to the last page, and the option of 'recommended vote support' still appears under the footer, and he didn't hesitate to give all the three votes he could cast today to Xueyun.

"What is this?" the big hooligan noticed that there was an additional option behind the previous votes: 'tip support'.

That must be supported! The book of the blood cloud boss is so good, and it has been updated with more than 10,000 words today, and it is simply not human if you don't support it!

But how to support it, what is a tip?

Click on it, and a window will pop up with detailed tips and instructions.

"Oh, if you want to read coins, 1 yuan to buy 100 coins, isn't it just a penny a coin, it's so fucking cheap, it costs hundreds to play games and buy a piece of equipment!"

I tried it first, and I rewarded one dollar, one hundred coins.

'Thanks for your support, you will be promoted to a trainee reader of Liuhua Sword Record, and you will receive an additional referral vote and 10 reader experience points. ’

"What the fuck can I get a referral ticket and experience?"

I'm really a hooligan.,His current website reader level is LV4.,You can only vote for each book every day.,This vote doesn't reflect his status as a loyal fan of Tianzi No. 1 at all.,But the upgrade is too slow.,Want to rise to LV5 with 4 recommended votes.,It's going to take a week to say the least.。

Without hesitation, he gave the extra recommendation ticket to Xueyun, and then directly rewarded 500 coins.

This time, he received 50 experience points, and two additional referral votes.
