Chapter 233: A Prospect of Freedom [Chapter 4 for the Elders' "Walking on the Silk"]

Time is like flowing water, whether people care or not, it will always pass at its inherent speed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Soon, more than a week passed.

There is very little left in the manuscript of "Shattering the Sky" in Lin Yang's hand, almost only about 30,000 words, this night, Lin Yang finished the manuscript under the lamp, and when he stopped writing, the time had come to 2 o'clock in the evening.

Because it was Saturday, he slept too late the night before, so Lin Yang slept until more than ten o'clock in the morning the next day before waking up from his sleep.

When he sat up from the bed, Lin Yang suddenly smiled.

I didn't expect that after I went to high school, there would be such a time when I forgot to sleep and eat.

However, he did not abolish the principles he had pursued for many years, and although he slept until ten o'clock and woke up today, he was very satisfied.

Because, once again, he has overcome his own inertia.

Lin Yang has always believed that a successful person must first be able to defeat himself, and if he can't even overcome his own inertia, it is impossible to achieve much.

This is inevitable, and if you want to succeed in anything, you must have this attitude.

Because if you can't defeat your own people, you won't have strong self-discipline, and a person who can't be self-disciplined can do one thing the best?

You can't do the best thing, but there will definitely be others who can do the best thing, then, the result is that you are not as good as others, you are not as good as others, and you are likely to face failure.

……

The sun outside the window is scorching, the fan hanging on the ceiling "squeaks" keeps turning, since Lin Yang has woken up, he naturally can't sleep, he got up soon after opening his eyes, after washing, it was almost time to eat, there was no one in the dormitory, he went home, he went to the classroom to go to the classroom, Lin Yang went to the cafeteria alone to have some lunch, after eating, Lin Yang returned to the 309 dormitory, took the manuscript of "Knife Shattering the Sky", and went to the Star Network Alliance to surf the Internet.

I slept until noon today, and the update of "Knife Shattering the Sky" has not been done yet.

After the computer was successfully turned on, Lin Yang didn't do anything at first, the first thing was to type the keyboard on the manuscript of "Knife to Break the Sky", and then immediately upload a new chapter to it.

When uploading this new chapter, Lin Yang saw that the number of collectors of "Shattered Skies" displayed in his author's background had increased to 18,486.

After the new chapter was uploaded, Lin Yang immediately opened the subscription page of "Knife Shattering the Sky", ready to see yesterday's subscription.

After the work subscription page was opened, Lin Yang saw that the average subscription of "Shattering the Sky" was 1354, and the new subscription yesterday was 3886.

Steady updates, coupled with successive website recommendations of all sizes, have made the subscription growth of "Knife Shattered Sky" a little larger than in previous days.

This was something that Lin Yang didn't expect at all.

"Not bad!"

Seeing that the total and average subscriptions had increased so much, Lin Yang felt a burst of joy and stability in his heart.

The joy and stability of being supported by more and more readers.

An author's greatest sense of accomplishment comes from readers who spend money to subscribe.

If a painstaking book is posted on the Internet, but few readers read it, then the blow to an author is almost devastating.

For Lin Yang, in addition to money, the attention and support of readers is the most fundamental motivation for him to continue writing.

When a novel is written, it is meant to be read by people.

What is the meaning of a novel that no one reads, what does it mean for the author to write? What is there to keep writing?

Lin Yang smiled, pulled down the webpage, and pulled it all the way to the book review area, and saw more than a dozen new book reviews posted by readers, which made Lin Yang's mood a little better.

These dozen or so new book reviews are almost all supportive voices, some familiar old readers, some new readers who are unfamiliar, and some readers urge to change book reviews.

Come to think of it, a few days ago, Lin Yang spent almost all of his spare time preparing for the basketball league, and the update of "Knife Shattering the Sky" was also slowed down.

At this time, the number of words published at the starting point of "Knife Shattering the Sky" has reached more than 1.8 million words, nearly 2 million words, which can be regarded as a "long masterpiece" for Lin.

Speaking from the heart, this is something Lin Yang didn't expect before, and being able to write this number is definitely inseparable from the support of readers.

With a grateful heart, Lin Yang carefully looked at the sales list on the homepage, and what made him a little disappointed was that the sales of "Knife Shattering the Sky" yesterday did not rank in the top ten as expected, so there was no way for it to appear on the list on the homepage.

Lin Yang manipulated the mouse, clicked in and looked at the entire list, and found that "Knife Shattering the Sky" ranked 15th, and several works in front of "Knife Shattering the Firmament" had more than 2 million words, ranking first, with more than 2.9 million words, almost 3 million words.

In this regard, Lin Yang felt an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.

In the past year, the starting point Chinese network has won the title of "Tianpeng Zong. The popularity of books such as "Heng" has proved to the world that the starting point VIP model is feasible, so that other websites have signed contracts and bought out authors, and have set their sights on the VIP listing model of the starting point.

You must know that when Lin Yang first came to the starting point, the starting point can really be said to be poor and white, with few talents, but now, the situation has changed dramatically, and more and more online writers have begun to try to switch to the starting point.

However, there are two sides to everything, and there are pros and cons.

Lin Yang thinks that there will be progress only when there is competition, the online text market is so big, there will only be more and more readers, as long as the novel is positioned accurately and written with heart, it will definitely achieve good results.

In the afternoon of the same day, after Lin Yang uploaded a few chapters of the novel, he came out of the Internet café tiredly, thinking in his heart, going to the bank to check the manuscript fee for last month.

After all, at the beginning of May, "Knife Shattering the Sky" was on the front page of the starting point, and Lin Yang also had a long-lost outbreak during the May Day period.

I went to the bank to take a look, and sure enough, Lin Yang's manuscript fee last month had historically exceeded 8,000 yuan, and it had all been remitted to Lin Yang's bank account written in the contract.

It has been almost 10 months since the book was issued at the starting point, in addition to some necessary expenses and subsidies for the family, Lin Yang's bank deposit has finally broken through the 30,000 yuan mark.

Seeing that the summer vacation was about to end, Lin Yang was always worried, if he went home on vacation, there was no network broadband in Zhushi Village, and "Shattering the Sky" would be broken for a longer time.

Interruption is fatal for any web novel. What's more, "Knife Shattering the Sky" will face a break of more than a month during the winter vacation.

In 2004, in Lin Yang's hometown, no one had a computer at home, let alone any network cables.

Not to mention rural people, looking at the entire 309 bedroom, Li Yue and Xu Zhichao are poor ghosts for the time being, Luo Tengkai's family is not poor but not rich, so Xu Duhuan and Zhang Zhicheng's family conditions are better, so they can afford to use computers.

Therefore, Lin Yang has already planned to rent a house near the school and buy a computer before the end of the semester.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yang withdrew 5,000 yuan in one go.

5,000 yuan, in 2016, was nothing at all.

At that time, the renminbi was greatly devalued, and carpenters and masons were paid two or three hundred yuan a day, and they all received six or seven thousand, or even tens of thousands, a month.

But in 2004, 5,000 yuan was still a considerable amount for those people at the bottom.

In 2004, carpenters and masons earned only 40 or 50 yuan a day, or even 30 yuan a day, and they might not be able to earn 1,000 yuan after working hard for a month.

At this time, Lin Yang's tuition fee for a semester was only more than 1,000 yuan.

The living expenses for a semester are less than 2,000 yuan, and the average monthly food expenses plus other expenses are only three or four hundred.

In such an era, 5000 is really a lot for Lin Yang.

The most important thing is that 5000 is not all his manuscript fee, and if the follow-up writing is good, the manuscript fee may rise again.

With Lin Yang's current writing speed, if he doesn't have to go to class, 10,000 words a day, ten days is more than 100,000, plus a few days, the text on the manuscript paper is input into the computer and made into an electronic document format, and the chapter content of more than 100,000 words will take less than a month.

For more than a month during the summer vacation, Lin Yang can write at least 200,000 words.

As long as there are no accidents, not to mention 10,000 yuan, a manuscript fee of 5,000 yuan a month can still be earned.

In 2004, 5,000 yuan was definitely a huge income that ordinary people could not dream of.

After withdrawing 5,000 yuan from the bank, Lin Yang can buy a computer according to his own heart, without handwriting, Lin Yang's writing speed can be increased by at least one-third.

It also saves the time of reading the manuscript and typing it into the computer.

As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

In order to speed up the speed of writing, the computer, Lin Yang knew that he could not save it.

Well, thinking about it this way, Lin Yang couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.
