As the largest literary reading and writing platform website in the Yanhuang Empire, Hero.com is also the leading original literature download portal in China. For the concept of this company, Yu Wenle feels that it is similar to a certain point in another time and space.

It's just that the current charging model of Hero.com is still a little different from that point in my memory. Although a paid subscription is required, the general free chapters, only about 100,000 words, begin to enter the stage of paid subscription.

Under normal circumstances, the editors of Hero.com will offer corresponding prices according to the quality of the author's novels. This is a bit similar to the model of weekly serialization, where the author needs to provide how many words per month, and the website pays the corresponding manuscript fee.

Listening to Hua Shaoxiong's explanation, Yu Wenle said curiously: "Mr. Hua, if the novel is not an author that your editors are satisfied with." Is it useless to write more? You can't make a dime, right? ”

Well, that's usually the case! Even now, only a few of the books we have signed up for on our website can really make a profit. The reason is simple, online literature started too late and the public acceptance is not high.

Even now, we have nearly five million paying users. But there are actually not many of these users who are really willing to pay to read novels. There are also few authors who can write good works on the Internet. ’

knows that the current online literature is indeed in an emerging stage, and there are really very few people who really pan for gold from here. Even some websites have invited some well-known writers to join and serialize their novels on the website.

But the actual effect is still unsatisfactory. This also made Yu Wenle understand that there is still some difference between online literature and traditional literature. And this difference will become more and more obvious with the development of the times.

The problem of the hero's online storage zài, many online literature companies nowadays have zài. For emerging things, it is relatively difficult for many people to accept them. It's a process of time!

Combined with the experience of another time and space, Yu Wenle thought for a while and said: "Mr. Hua, from your standpoint, I think it is a matter of course for you to implement such a strict review system.

But from the author's point of view, if you bother to create a work and don't see any gains, you will still be a little shocked. Mr. Hua thinks that the user is more important, or is the author more important? ”

In response to such a question, Hua Shaoxiong thought for a while and said, "Both of these should be important, right?" ”

It's true that a company can't be profitable without users providing profits. But in my opinion, the lack of cultivating authors who really attract online literature lovers is also the bottleneck of domestic literary websites.

In fact, my cooperation with your website this time has fully proved how great the market potential of good works is online. This shows that online literature is a big cake, and it depends on how you cut it.

But I think that, in the final analysis, there is still a lack of authors in China who love online literary creation. Looking at several major reading websites in China, the operation mode is similar. You're only thinking about the growth of user numbers, but you're killing the enthusiasm of too many writers. ’

Knowing that Yu Wenle seems to have a lot of unique opinions on online literature, Hua Shaoxiong also asked a little shamelessly: "Wenle, I know that you pay attention to this aspect of things, so how do you think we should break this bottleneck?" ”

Regarding Hua Shaoxiong's sincere inquiry, Yu Wenle also said directly: "Mr. Hua, since you asked, then I will tell me my opinion on this matter." In my opinion, the number of users is important, but the author is just as important.

Now that the Internet era has come, since offline can create a so-called cutting-edge and popular author. So on the Internet, why can't you bring out a few popular authors? When the author is famous, it will attract the attention of more readers.

Secondly, I think that the current protection system for authors in your company is somewhat outdated. Many people who love to write may not have a lot of money. If you can give them some protection, maybe it will give them more peace of mind. ”

After saying these words, Yu Wenle said that he had implemented measures such as full attendance awards and minimum guarantee awards at a certain point. After Hua Shaoxiong heard it, he was also very shocked. These measures are indeed a boon to the author!

Even at the end, Yu Wenle said: "The website can give a corresponding rating according to the value that the author contributes to the website every year." Users can also be given certain honorary titles according to their consumption.

In short, if this method of survival of the fittest can be implemented on the Internet, I believe it will also be a stimulus to the author. For readers, they don't have to worry about spending money to see all the works that are flooded.

If the author wants to be loved by his readers, he must put a lot of effort into writing each of his chapters. Only then will readers pay to subscribe to the novels he writes. If he does, the reader can cancel his subscription to his novels.

And the website is a platform for using, so you can also sit back and reap the benefits. It seems that the price is not low, but in fact the wool comes from the sheep. I believe that this is a change that readers and users are happy to accept. ”

To Yu Wenle's surprise, he was honest about these ideas and measures, and soon heard Hua Shaoxiong's expression serious: "Wenle, what do you think of our hero network?" ”

This question stunned Yu Wenle and said, "Mr. Hua, what do you want to say?" ”

When listening to Yu Wenle's talk about how to break through the bottleneck of online literature websites, Hua Shaoxiong suddenly felt. Maybe he can do it another way, and pull his chariot with Bunraku.

If you say, in the past, Hua Shaoxiong only liked Yu Wenle's creative talent. So the previous remarks made Hua Shaoxiong feel that Yu Wenle was also good at the action planning of network companies. Such a talent, how can you miss it!

Seeing that Yu Wenle didn't understand what he meant, Hua Shaoxiong also said frankly: "Hero Network was established by me five years ago. At that time, there were only three or five people in the company, and the funds were also pooled together.

But in the first two years, the company was more of a loss-making company, and as a result, several of my partners withdrew their capital and found another way out. That is, because I am not convinced, I have always insisted on running this company.

In the past two years, although the company said that it did not continue to lose money, its profits were also pitiful. Don't look at my current scenery, I am the CEO of an Internet company with hundreds of employees. But in reality, my life was not easy.

I mean, if you're interested, or if you're optimistic about the development of our hero.com, I'd like to invite you to become a shareholder of the company and deepen our cooperation. But I should explain in advance that I must control the company. ”

Invite yourself to be a shareholder of Hero.com?

Yu Wenle, who thought Hua Shaoxiong was joking before, looked at the other party's somewhat cautious expression, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Hua, are you sure you're not joking?" On my current terms, is it possible to be a shareholder? ”

It's possible if you want to. If you want, I can give you 30% of the shares. If you can't come up with the money now, you can also owe it for the time being.

I plan to distribute the remaining shares to the employees of the company in the future. After all, some of them went through the most difficult days of the Hero Network with me. I can't treat them too badly. ’

With 30 percent of the shares, it can almost be said that it is the second shareholder of Hero.com. For Hua Shaoxiong's invitation, Yu Wenle was really moved. After all, there was information from another time and space to draw on, and he knew what that meant.

After thinking for a while, he said, "How much do I have to pay for thirty percent of the shares?" At present, the media's estimate of the value of your hero network is close to 30 million. If it's so expensive, I can't afford it! ”

felt that this was an opportunity to be sent to the front, and there was no need to give up Yu Wenle in vain. In the end, it was decided that this rare opportunity should be seized. As long as the hero network develops well, 30% of the shares will bring him unimaginable huge benefits.

As for the money to buy shares, Yu Wenle believes that if he is given time, he should still be able to earn it quickly!
