Chapter 43 A New Way of Publishing
"New book release? So fast? ”
"Great! That's really the best news I've heard in recent times! ”
After the bombshell released by Xinya.com, similar news appeared on the Xinya.com forum, and there were many replies, and high-rise buildings were soon built.
"What will Li Kuo's new book look like? What category? I guess maybe another category, right? ”
"I'm a little worried now, could he be sending the book too fast and lowering the quality of the next book?"
…… Among the various unsympathetic posts, the release of "First Close Contact" is in full swing.
This includes an interview with Li Kuo, including the arrangements for the major recommended positions, and ...... Ye Liancheng and Li Changkong's various entanglements.
Because, the release of "The First Close Contact" will take a different approach from "The Days of Living with a Flight Attendant".
"The Days of Living with a Flight Attendant" has always been the way other works on Sprout Network are released: they have accumulated popularity before, and then they are directly on the shelves.
But "First Close Encounter" doesn't take that approach...... Instead, it's just free to publish the whole process.
As for the income of the book, it can only rely on the tips of readers.
There are some other websites that are generally aware of this practice, but they all feel in their hearts that it is very likely that it will be self-defeating to do so.
After all, everyone has been working hard for a long, long time for the VIP system of online texts to receive some results, but now, sprouts.com, Li Kuo's new book is actually going backwards to the era of chaos?
In addition, Li Kuo's "Days of Living with a Flight Attendant" has been moving towards 9,000 so far, which is a rather frightening number, especially for Sprouts.
If Li Kuo's new book is free of charge, it is equivalent to giving up so much subscription income.
What do Sprouts and Li Kuo think?
In fact, Ye Liancheng himself also had great doubts about this matter, since Li Changkong proposed this plan, he has been thinking about it, but he has been thinking about it for a long time and has not thought of a better way.
The reason for this qiē is that "First Close Encounter" is a bit too short.
There are only so many 5W words in the whole book......
Such a short work, if it is released in the way of the previous sprouts, is it necessary to use 30,000 or 40,000 words as a foreshadowing for the public version, and the last 10,000 or 20,000 words will be put on the shelves? So what's the deal with even if it's 100,000 on the shelves?
In the past, there were also some short stories in the sprouts, and it was in this way that they got profits.
This method profoundly and vividly embodies the point of "no gentleman, no artist", after all, you can choose to give money, or you can choose not to give money, the vast majority of people are unwilling to give money.
Alas, who asked Li Kuo to write such a few words in this book?
What's the solution?
In short, they can only choose this method for now to release "First Close Encounter".
The whole site is bottomless......
Pinning all the proceeds of this book on the moral level of the readers cannot but make one wonder about the future of the next book.
As a result, Ye Liancheng and Li Changkong are also constantly discussing now......
Discuss a lot of details about how to do it.
Since it is already an established fact that this book was released like this, the next step is to try to do the best in various operational strategies.
…… Li Kuo also found out that the book "The First Close Contact" was so short, so he could only take this method.
After all, if it is released according to the VIP model, then Li Kuo has already talked to Li Changkong and them about other issues anyway, and he can also know the stakes and cons.
Li Kuo himself also thought that because this book is too short, if it is only according to the model of "The Days of Living with a Flight Attendant", there will definitely be a zài problem.
So he raised his hands in favor of Li Changkong's approach.
Well, it's just a matter of the release of the book.
"That's it for now! We will cover the issue of the release of this book in an exclusive interview, in addition, we will have a special advertorial and the like to tell you about the nature of this book, and I hope you can support you by giving you a reward! There are still a lot of tips in the later stage of "The Days of Living with a Flight Attendant", and I believe that the rewards of "The First Close Contact" will not be too small. ”
Li Changkong said these words to Li Kuo on QQ.
Next, "First Close Encounter" will be officially released on Sprout.com, and a new battle will begin.
Before the official start of that battle, Li Changkong told Li Kuo this.
"Thank you, editor-in-chief, I see!"
As with "Days of Living with a Flight Attendant", all updates to "First Close Encounter" will also be handed over to the website to solve.
After ending the conversation with Li Changkong, Li Kuo called for "system" in his mind.
Now that he is becoming more and more proficient, as soon as his thoughts move, the information of the system is reflected in his head.
"The First Close Contact" made Li Kuo very depressed......
After all, this is an old book from 2,000 years ago in that time and space, and it is still a little old-fashioned for the current era, so Li Kuo doesn't know if this book can replicate the glory of "The Days of Living with a Flight Attendant".
Secondly, the book is too short in word count...... This made Li Kuo and Li Changkong particularly difficult.
Li Changkong also wanted Li Kuo to write more, but Li Kuo couldn't help it......
So now Li Kuo understands that this system is not omnipotent.
He needs something else now!
"The First Close Contact" is only 50,000 words, so Li Kuo quickly wrote all these 50,000 words, and next, he needs another cultural product......
If it's any other novel, that's the best.
Li Kuo checked the basic information of the system and saw that his points are now 1879, because he hit the Baidu Index Billboard before, which made Li Kuo increase many fans, and these fans were converted into points.
Originally, 1000 points was enough for the lottery...... But Li Kuo still wants to wait until he has 2,000 points to continue the lottery.
Li Kuo wants to draw something he wants, he doesn't want to draw vigorously or "The First Close Contact" is so difficult to deal with.
It is still a bit far to save 2,000 points to draw again, so Li Kuo still wants to wait first.
After reading this, Li Kuo was about to set off......
Because today Li Kuo and Xiao Qifan made an appointment to go over to see the house.
This matter has been delayed for a few days, and today I have to go.
Soon, Li Kuo saw Xiao Qifan downstairs, and the two got into Xiao Qifan's car and drove in the direction that Xiao Qifan said.
