Chapter 245: Quotes
On the whole, there have been a little changes from previous years, one is that there are some changes in the mood, at least he has completed one thing that he has always wanted to go to, but he has no time to go, his family's old house is now uninhabitable, the ground is full of ash, there are a lot of dilapidated furniture piled up, it looks very sad, the yard is planted with three old poplar trees in a triangular shape, where there is Lin Yu's childhood, his father used to make him a hammock for taking a nap outside in the summer, and then with the help of the three old poplar trees.

As for the well in the yard, if you open it to take a look, you will also find the clear well water inside, because it lives in a relatively high place, so the well is a place where Lin Yu did not dare to go in the past, next to the well, is the former grass house, once in the grandfather's generation, remember that there are still two horses in it, but unfortunately when he was not born, his grandparents were already dead, I only remember that at that time, my father told him about the things that my grandfather told my father to my father when I couldn't sleep, and talked about those things about the Anti-Japanese War, He also talked about the invasion of the island people into Ganglin Province.
There are a lot of things, and Lin Yu, who has been there once, misses it too.
This is the first, the second is that in 2005, Lin Yu felt that he was busy before and after, almost no time to be free, but he was not busy anywhere, he has always played a decision-making role, after this, Lin Yu was left to run back and forth in Xingyu Media and Mingyu Company every day, it seemed to be busy, in fact, it was just like that, and Liu Wanting couldn't be leisurely enough, no matter how leisurely, but he couldn't be idle.
Now for him, those two places are all his belongings, and the same is true in the future, as for what other places he decides to develop in the future, he may not be able to get rid of these two places, in the end, if there is more business, the company will absorb a few investors, maybe a group can be established, there is a board of directors in it, and then there are many branches under it, this goal, at least for the time being, is a little difficult to achieve, after all, these two alone are enough headaches for Lin Yu.
"Dungeons and Warriors" is still as popular as ever, and the degree of popularity may have been described by a metaphor is the most appropriate, that is, casually walk into an Internet café, to ensure that you can see someone playing the new game "Dungeons and Warriors", you know, the release time of this game, it has been more than a month, more than a month has reached this level, in addition to the advertising that has been played in the early stage, what really plays a role in advertising promotion may be the word of mouth of the players themselves, it is precisely the latter, is the most important place for a game, no matter how much publicity you have, you will only get more bad reviews in the end, and the game itself is the most important.
Do you think this game is fun, and naturally I will recommend it to my friends around you, and it seems that it is not a thing to become popular, right?
After shaking his head, Lin Yu, who came to Huatian City, first went to Mingyu Company once, said hello to many staff members who had just come to work, and then asked about Xu Qingqing, and then went to some important R&D departments that had no rest throughout the year to take a look, and after saying some words of encouragement for the New Year with a smile, Lin Yu left Mingyu Company directly, and then drove up Xingyu Media.
After a few days, we have to have a meeting, and it will be regarded as a New Year's outlook......
And here at Xingyu Media, what he really looks forward to may only be the benefits that Park Jae-sang will still bring.
"Mr. Lin, Happy New Year."
After a few customer service girls outside saw Lin Yu, they greeted with a smile.
Lin Yu smiled and said the same: "You too, Happy New Year, work hard." ”
After saying it with a smile, Lin Yu walked directly upstairs.
The office building here of Xingyu Media is only five floors, Lin Yu usually does not take the elevator, it is not an urgent matter for him or it is not a dozen floors, it is better to take the stairs, this is a habit that has always been formed.
It will take more than ten days for the start of school at J University, so Lin Yu can only stay in the company before this, but fortunately, there is a place for him to rest behind the general manager's office, and it is not that there is no place to live.
"That, why isn't Vice President Liu here?"
When Lin Yu walked around the company, he found that he didn't see Liu Wanting.
"Well, Vice President Liu, she came to work a few days ago, it seems that she just answered a phone call and left, she said that if you asked, she said that she would come back in the afternoon, Mr. Lin, why don't I give her a call?" A woman said to Lin Yu with a smile.
"No need, I'll just ask casually, and I'll call him directly if I have something to do with her." Lin Yu shook his head, and then went to the general manager's office.
In 2005, the overall profit of Xingyu Media is greater than the expenditure, and the profit here does not include the money earned by the three major singers of Xingyu Media, only refers to the activity expenses earned by some second- and third-tier singers who have been trained and the profits of Xingyu Media to receive some large-scale music projects from major enterprises and companies and other places, etc., large companies and enterprises have that financial resources, under normal circumstances, a corporate song, when all the songs are recorded, and then the lyrics and music are written and a series of words, at least more than 30,000 yuan of income, Throwing away some costs, it can also bring 20,000 yuan of income to Xingyu Media, in this regard, Xingyu Media's profit is still greater than the expenditure, of course, it is not much, it can be maintained.
That's right, with the increase in the popularity of Xingyu Media, there are also many singers who come to Xingyu Media, of course, there are also some singers who contribute at their own expense and then let the company package and promote, but these singers generally have little strength, of course, there are a few high-value ones who have also gained a certain fan status under the publicity of Xingyu Media, and occasionally go to school to open a singing club or sing at Wang Yujie's concert, etc., basically Xingyu Media's profit model is limited to these aspects, the most important, It is also the three major singers of the company, and it is also the key place for Xingyu Media to cultivate
So to sum up, it's time to improve the business scope of Xingyu Media, right?
Lin Yu frowned, hugged the computer on the desk, and thought for a while while turning the pen before Lin Yu went outside.
……
……
In the days before the start of school, Lin Yu basically ran back and forth between the two companies, about Liu Wanting's big red envelope, Lin Yu finally gave her a bonus of 500,000 yuan, which can be regarded as a tribute to her contribution to Xingyu Media in the whole year last year, after getting Lin Yu's red envelope, Liu Wanting was naturally a little cheering, in fact, Lin Yu originally wanted to give her a million red envelopes, and finally after thinking about it, she changed it to a red envelope of 500,000.
It's not that he's a little picky, the red envelope is just a symbolic meaning, and it's not interesting to give more, with the company's business scope increasing, and then the scale is getting bigger and bigger, when the time comes, as the company's vice president, she will definitely give her an annual salary increase, which is better than being allocated to the annual salary.
In fact, in addition to Liu Wanting, there are also red envelopes from other people in the company, and now there are nearly 200 employees in Xingyu Media Company, and there are nearly 100 employees in Mingyu Company, adding up to about 300 employees, not too much, Lin Yu finally gave each of them a red envelope at his own expense, of course, the red envelope is not too big, 500 yuan per person, it cost him 150,000 yuan, including those security guards and gatekeepers under the company building, etc., all 500, which also made many people a small surprise, because whether it is the supervisor or other customer service, it is 500 yuan, which is a very fair belief red envelope.
The days are passing day by day, every day Lin Yu looks at the good things from the game feedback data and has some confidence that is instantly surged, and soon, the time came to February 21, 2006, Jianglin University officially opened, which also means that these students in their junior year have completely stepped into the second half of the third semester, and then wait until the summer vacation this year, they have reached the last train of college time.
On this day, Lin Yu came to the 317 dormitory early.
It was only when I came in that I found that those boys had already come to the dormitory, and then they were in the dormitory...... Fighting landlords?
It's so pleasant!
"You guys came early, I thought I was the first to come, but I didn't expect you to be the first to get there" Lin Yu smiled slightly, then closed the door, glanced at it, and found that "Dungeons and Warriors" was open on Gaoqiang's computer, it seems that he is really a big fan ......of their game.
"Hey, we opened yesterday afternoon, do you see the group in our dormitory?" Duan Jiantao smiled, "Lin Yu, let me tell you something, three days ago, my novel was finally finished, nearly four million words, I was exhausted." ”
"Oh? Really? Congratulations. ”
Lin Yu smiled.
"I'm going to take a full month off and write again, otherwise I can't stand 10,000 days a day, and that kind of day is a kind of torment, really." Duan Jiantao looked at Lin Yu helplessly.
"Walk the cards." Nangong Yun also smiled, "Brother Lin, do you want to play cards together?" ”
"How do I play with you three, you better play by yourself." Lin Yu immediately looked at Duan Jiantao, "How about it, the money earned from the novel is enough to buy a few houses?" ”
Duan Jiantao was stunned, thought about it, and then said speechlessly: "Almost ten sets......"
Ten sets?
It means that you have earned about four or five million in two years with a novel, right?
"Seriously, if it weren't for those pirated copies, I would have already subscribed to more than 100,000, and it is estimated that I have earned more than 20 houses now, and I have been ranked first on the Baidu novel search list for so long, but this novel only earned me nearly five million." Duan Jiantao smiled bitterly, "It's not that I'm crying poor, it's mainly that it doesn't match my popularity." ”
"Wouldn't it? Jiantao, I think piracy sometimes boosts the popularity of your novels on the one hand. ”
Gao Qiang grinned.
"Cut!" Duan Jiantao pouted, "It's like those movies that people bother to make don't need to spend money to go to the cinema to watch, where do those hundreds of millions and billions of box office results come from?" Is it pirated? Or is it because of the poor awareness of the authenticity of the novel? Maybe it can be said that it's not that everyone doesn't have a sense of genuineness, the main thing is that they all have a fluke mentality, just like I can see it if I pirate, why do you look at the genuine version? But seriously, in addition to me, there are a few good authors who can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, but those at the bottom, it's only a few hundred yuan a month, and even the authors who are cut off because of poor grades are not uncommon, that's all, a lot of pirated websites are checked, search for novels, genuine websites are not in the first row, it looks too pitiful, and there is still a long way to go in the online literature industry. Duan Jiantao shook his head.
"In the same way, those words like piracy to attract popularity are just excuses, as long as the book is good, it will definitely become popular, which does not need piracy to attract popularity as its flaunt, it is just an excuse, this is just like a slap does not sound this sentence, Chinese people always like to use these seemingly reasonable reasons to show his presence without knowing the situation in the industry, really."
Gao Qiang was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head: "Seeing what you say, I really have to go to see the genuine version......"
"Hahaha." Nangong Yun also smiled, "I don't read novels, I don't mean that." ”
"You kid."
Duan Jiantao shook his head.
"Perhaps, but fiction is still a long way off."
Lin Yu also smiled, he naturally knew that the model of novels in the next ten years would change, in addition to copyright, in fact, piracy was still rampant.
As a genuine reader in later generations, Lin Yu didn't want to comment too much on those who watched pirated copies, but he felt that since you wanted to see it, you needed to spend money to see it, a very simple sentence, you pay you a few hours of labor, I will use a few cents to see it, that's all.
Of course, in the final analysis, Duan Jiantao estimates that he will earn copyright fees in the future, including a series of copyright fees such as page game adaptation, comic adaptation and physical book publishing.
In the final analysis, just like a sentence in later generations, the big god relies on copyright, the small god relies on channels, and the street depends on subscription.
The model of the online literature industry, whether it is now, or in the next ten years, is just that, a very simple online literature model, although Lin Yu can't write, but he also often reads novels, and he also knows the changes in later novels, compared with now, but it only adds some attention to copyright, and the underlying author is still a miserable situation.
And often those small street subscriptions have to be swallowed by some of the site's activities, and then most of them are swallowed by pirated websites, pirated websites simply ctrl+c and ctrl+v, in less than a few seconds, can steal many poor authors for a few hours of creation, and finally those because of the results or the state of the writing is a little unsatisfactory, but also pirated readers go to the book review area to condemn and criticize, saying that the author is pure nonsense and so on.
The low-level authors survived, and then the middle- and upper-class authors lived quite nourishingly, in the final analysis, in fact, it was just because piracy was rampant, and those pirated websites were tens of thousands of people with a casual search, while genuine websites only had hundreds of thousands of popularity, which is the status quo of online articles.
"Don't say it, I'm just crying out for those little authors, and now that I have this ability, I'm already satisfied, not that it's my own problem." Duan Jiantao shook his head, "Let's play cards together, let's go to dinner later, it's not too early." ”
"Okay, in order to celebrate, I'll invite everyone to eat hot pot tonight!"
"Hot pot is so boring, I want to eat barbecue."
"Don't fight, vote, the old rules, the minority obeys the majority......" (To be continued.) )
