059 Preparation for the launch of Chinese
On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the weather is sunny.
"I Am a ** Division" has steadily improved its performance because of the publicity of the Demon Spirit Queen. On the homepage of the Dragon Sword Book League, the list of book friends and flowers slowly climbed. Shen Qiu also resumed the rhythm of three more than six thousand words a day, and the novel's current results have entered a stable state, and he is not in a hurry.
After writing a chapter, Shen Qiu connected to the Internet, and someone on TT called him a fat man for ten years.
"Boss Shen, I resigned. From today onwards, I can devote myself to the cause of starting Chinese Network. ”
The fat man sent a message on TT with a sword in ten years.
"When? Why don't you give a word in advance? Shen Qiu asked.
"I have already gone through the resignation procedures a few years ago. Boss Shen, I will be your person in the future, and you will be responsible for others! The fat man sent a flattering expression.
"Get out, I don't do it!"
"It's so sad!"
"Time will tell, you made the right choice." Shen Qiu replied: "The VIP fee model is the right path for the future development of online literature, and I am confident that it will take one year to defeat the Dragon Sword Book League and become the industry hegemon in two years." "Shen Qiu doesn't mind painting a big cake for ten years of a sword.
In the back, Walker, Black Ant, and Tibetan Knife Jiangnan also joined the discussion. The five of them gave a brief briefing on the recent situation. The Tibetan Dao Jiangnan side has reached an agreement with thirty-six online novel authors, as soon as the Chinese website is launched, they will settle in and become resident authors.
Ten years of a sword and a hidden knife Jiangnan have already rented offices and servers in the magic capital of Shanghai.
Walkers has begun to recruit editors on the website, and Black Ant has recruited more than 20 editors on the network. As soon as the website was launched, they began to solicit people on various web novel websites.
"Is there enough money? If that's not enough, can I re-fund? Shen Qiu still has more than 700,000 yuan in hand, and he doesn't have any other projects at present, so he naturally won't be too stingy.
"Enough money. When the website was first built, the server didn't need to be too big, and we only rented the smallest office room. In addition to a few of us, at present, the company has only recruited two financial personnel and one cleaning aunt, and the expenses are not large. "As the general manager of Qiuding Company, Shao Tinghui of Tibetan Knife Jiangnan is naturally worried about these trivial matters.
Although the five people have designed the charging model of online novels, it is certainly impossible to implement it immediately from the beginning. In the next half a year, Shen Qiu will still need to continue to have blood transfusions for Chinese next six months.
"We have to do everything we can to find a consistent source of funding." While discussing with the other four people on the Internet, Shen Qiu secretly pondered in his heart: "Selling songs is a channel for a source of funds, but it is not very stable. I'll have to think of something else. ”
In Shen Qiu's planning, there are roughly three stages of starting Chinese network, the first stage is the stage of just going online and accumulating popularity to attract traffic. At this stage, Qicheng Chinese Network has no profitability, and can only rely on Shen Qiu's blood transfusion or external investment.
The second stage is the break-even stage, in this stage, the Chinese network has a certain strength, and the traffic has gradually increased, and the VIP fees for advertising and novels can initially achieve break-even.
The third stage is the profitability stage. At this time, Qicheng Chinese Network has become the industry boss, and the VIP fee system has matured. Tong guò e-reading fee, Tong guò surrounding industries. The IP of the website's own novels is profitable.
Shen Qiu told the other four people about the three stages of his thinking, and everyone agreed with him.
"In the beginning, can we go to the break-even stage by adding ads on our pages?" The walker raised a question.
"Nope." Shen Qiu categorically denied: "Too many page advertisements will affect the reader's reading experience, and this practice will not outweigh the losses." I'd rather keep giving the journey blood transfusions than have the reader complain. ”
"In fact, we have started the Chinese network very well, and at the beginning, we will ask for 400,000 Chinese yuan invested by Boss Shen, which can support the website for at least about two years." Tibetan Dao Jiangnan obviously knows some insiders: "Do you know what the registered capital of the Dragon Sword Book League was before it received investment from Yangcheng Daily?" ”
"200,000 Chinese dollars!" Without waiting for everyone to answer, Zangdao Jiangnan himself said the answer: "200,000 Chinese yuan, less than half of our journey." Long Jian used the 200,000 Chinese dollars to last for nearly three years. ”
"Isn't Long Jian now receiving investment from Yangcheng?" The walker said: "I heard that they have received a capital injection of one million Chinese yuan from Yangcheng. ”
"Humph!" Zangdao Jiangnan made a sneering expression: "Almost all of the one million Chinese yuan is used to buy popular works on the broken website, and it doesn't cost much to improve the website itself!" This can be seen from the fact that the website of the Dragon Sword Book League is now convulsive from time to time, and the user experience is too poor. ”
"The Dragon Sword Book League has chosen the path of physical publishing, and the copyright buyout fee will naturally account for the majority." Shen Qiu thought as he typed: "I think Long Jian may gradually give up on the readers on the Internet." ”
"One word stupid. Two words are stupid! "Ten years of a sword sent a poop pattern behind the text.
"Okay, don't worry about the Dragon Sword Book Alliance. It's doomed to fail, so let's get ready to go live in March. Shen Qiu pulled the topic back in time.
"By the way, have you noticed a book that has been in the limelight lately?" The black ant asked suddenly.
Walker: "Do you mean "I am a ** teacher"? ”
"Do you still have to say that? Those trolls at the Dongtu Forum were slapped in the face last night. Fat man, I'm paying attention to the whole process. "A sword in ten years.
Tibetan Dao Jiangnan: "Shen Qiu, the little Baiwen you talked to us about before, is it a novel of the type "I Am a ** Teacher"? ”
"That's right, "I Am a ** Teacher" is a typical Xiaobai Shuangwen, and the era of Xiaobaiwen is coming." Shen Qiu didn't talk about writing "I Am a ** Teacher" with the other four. None of them knew that the future knight and the Wen Gong were actually the same person.
Tibetan Dao Jiangnan: "I haven't contacted the future knight yet, he is a newcomer The author is not very familiar, I don't know if I can pull from the dragon sword to let's set off in Chinese?" ”
Seeing the words of the hidden knife Jiangnan, Shen Qiu wanted to admit that he was the future knight, he had typed in the chat box, but he didn't send it out. After hesitating for a moment, Shen Qiu revised the content of his chat.
"Tibetan knife, I have already contacted the future knight, as soon as the departure is online, he will go to the station." In the end, Shen Qiu did not tell the truth that he was the future knight, he had a vague idea in his mind, he felt that his identity as a future knight as an online writer seemed to be an insurance for the departure of the Chinese network.
Although he still couldn't understand the powerful relationship now, Shen Qiu still decided to keep his future knight a secret first.
