The 2006 college entrance examination began just two days after the press conference of "Dragon Babu", and a total of 8.8 million students across the country took the college entrance examination.

The gaokao will admit 2.6 million undergraduates, nearly one-third. There are also 2.7 million places for junior college students, accounting for one-third. In the end, there are more than a third left, either to review or to work part-time. Every year's college entrance examination is a major juncture to change your fate.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Zhang Tan, none of his relatives took the college entrance examination this year, and neither did Susa's family.

But in the micro. On the blog, Zhang Tan published a long micro-blog with pictures.

"Life is like climbing a mountain, the college entrance examination is a bend, and if you cross this hurdle in one go, the scenery behind it turns out to be better...... Relax your mind, play normally, eat and sleep well, and have good energy, your grades will be better...... I wish you all a smooth college entrance examination and good luck! ”

Wei-Bo has a limit of 140 characters, but Zhang Tan has already let people develop a long-term Wei-Bo tool, which is to generate pictures from text, and publishing pictures is not subject to the 140-character limit.

Now, more than a year after Weibo was launched, the number of registered users has exceeded 10 million, and the development momentum is very good. Every day, millions of people share each other's stories on Weibo, or forward celebrity Weibo, and the communication between friends is even more frequent. Now, in order to review bad information, Wei-Bo has hired a full fifty copy editors.

Zhang Tan remembers that in the 06-09 wave of China's microblogging, many websites died from bad information, there was no one on them, and they couldn't be clean, and the result was that they were blocked by the government. After the lockdown was lifted, the best opportunity for development had been missed, and the loss of old users was serious, and it has been sluggish ever since.

Therefore, Zhang Tan's first proposition in Weibo is to filter bad information. In advance, he sacrificed the harmonious Dafa that he hated the most in his previous life -- advocating a civilized Internet environment.

All keywords involving obscure political information and erotic information are blocked. If you find a Weibo account that spreads pornography, crime, or reaction, you will be directly banned.

This kind of harsh harmony may displease some netizens, but it is better than putting the website at risk. There are not many employees in Internet companies, and there is no way to distinguish whether the Weibo posted by users is legal or not. Only stupid methods can be taken. It's keyword filtering.

This is also the reason why there are so many blocked words on the Internet in the future.

It's not that the government requires these words not to appear, but that the website itself is afraid of trouble, so it takes the initiative to block it, and then dumps the pot on the government - this is all caused by the government's harmony, and it has nothing to do with our website - and it is really not to blame the website, don't block it, in case it is reported, the responsibility still has to be borne by the website.

Serious should learn from the United States. Fishing law enforcement, netizens posted to spread all kinds of unhealthy thoughts, and went directly to the door to check the water meter, instead of looking for a website to roff.

There are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

Stability at the top, harmony at the bottom.

After establishing perfect shielding measures, Zhang Tan has finished all his suggestions on Weibo. Like, add V certification, long micro-blog, circle of friends...... After setting that Wei-Bo will focus on mobile clients in the future, Zhang Tan completely launched it from the management of Wei-Bo Company.

Only shares are retained. Let the professionals take the lead in the direction of development.

He has already opened a path for Weibo to surpass everyone in advance, if there is no way to stay ahead in the future. Zhang Tan also had nothing to say.

In fact, after the emergence of Weibo, there have been many similar websites that have begun to imitate the form of Weibo, including giants like Tencent have begun to make websites in this area. Zhang Tan inquired about the United States, and a website called Twitter also appeared, which is very similar to Weibo.

Just these sites. Compared with the mature function of Wei-Bo, it is still very immature, and the fun is not high, and it has never brought much competitive pressure to Wei-Bo.

As long as Weibo doesn't make mistakes, the opponent only has time.

"After the excitement and passion of the early days of entrepreneurship. Now that I think about it, there is no pleasure in starting a company, I can't see the benefits, only keep burning money, burning money. ”

In terms of art, Zhang Tan has a strong interest and talent, but when it comes to starting a company, Zhang Tan doesn't have so much patience. He was annoyed to see a lot of financial statements, all of which were expenditures and no gains. How can this look at the remittance slip of the Luzhou studio is refreshing.

If he didn't know in his heart that the future of Weibo would be very awesome, he really couldn't hold on: "Even now, if there are big companies that are willing to buy Weibo at a high price, I guess they will sell it." ”

Zhang Tan holds 80% of the shares of Wei-Bo, Lei Jun holds 20% of the shares, more than a year, Zhang Tan has invested about 35 million funds in the company, plus Lei Jun has invested 20 million, the company's total investment is 55 million. The valuation of Weibo by venture capital companies in the market is probably between 200 million and 300 million.

As long as someone bids higher than this, Zhang Tan will inevitably consider selling, and making money is a success.

……

We-Bo develops in an orderly manner.

Zhang Tan has already started typing on the keyboard, creating the last novel tentatively scheduled in the plan, "Smiling Proud Jianghu". Jin Yong's fourteen classic novels, the most prominent are the Condor Trilogy and the five of Tianlong and Xiaoao. Whether it is the sales of novels or film and television adaptations, they far exceed other films.

Except for the sealed work "The Legend of Deer and Ding", although it has a great influence, the evaluation is mixed, and it is a stallion flow work, which is really inconsistent with Zhang Tan's attributes.

Basically, after these five novels are written, the peak of martial arts novels driven by Zhang Tan has been reached, and when you create other novels by Jin Yong, you will inevitably feel that the more you write, the more you regress.

Zhang Tan will not do this kind of out-of-character thing.

"After writing "Smiling Proud Jianghu", writing is no longer my main business, at most I will have leisure in the future, and I will take the time to tinker with a few classics of Gulong."

Here Zhang Tan immersed himself in the creation of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and the first volume of "Tianlong Babu" over there was hotly put on the shelves.

"Tianlong Babu" has a total of 1.2 million words, divided into six volumes, the first volume is 200,000 words, and only talks about one protagonist, that is, Duan Yu, Qiao Feng and Xuzhu have not yet appeared, among the heroines, there is a Zhu who has not yet come out, and Wang Yuyan has not yet come out. Overall, the first part is a little more tepid.

But this did not affect the sales of the novel at all, and the stupid Duan Yu won the love of many readers.

And the comments on this novel are also overwhelming, with countless praises.

On Douban Reading, more than 1,000 people soon rated it, and the score remained at 9. 4 points in height. There are still few Douban users now, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has only had more than 10,000 comments after a few years. "Dragon Babu" has been on the shelves for less than a month, and more than 1,000 people have rated it, which is very hanging.

"It's full of wit, it's fun." Li Qiru, a professor at Renmin University, did not write a preface to "Tianlong Babu" this time, but he still expressed his feelings after reading the first volume for the first time.

Of course, there is also an iron fan of Zhang Tan, Ye Hongsheng, a famous martial arts critic in Taiwan, who expressed a different opinion: "My favorite is "Xiao Li Flying Knife", and what I admire the most is the heroic feelings of the Condor Trilogy. ”

This is, first of all, an affirmation of the quality of this novel, which is nothing more than a hero.

Looking at the beginning, it does seem that the children's love is too heavy, and it feels like the intention is lower than the Condor trilogy.

But Zhang Tan is not in a hurry, and neither is the publishing house.

Wei Ranzhi, general manager of Sanlian Bookstore, said before: "I have read all your novels, "Dragon Babu" is the most majestic, and the name of the hero is as good as Qiao Feng...... And it is indeed like the title of the book, there is a lot of Buddha flavor. After reading it, I feel that I have the wisdom to study Buddhism, and this book will definitely be the pinnacle of martial arts novels. ”

All the praise, it is difficult to give birth to a trace of waves in Zhang Tan's heart.

I listened too much, and I was numb to listening to it earlier.

In a blink of an eye.

June is spent in the scorching heat, and July arrives.

Joint Publishing summed up this month's book sales, and one volume of "Dragon Babu" sold 2.6 million copies! This month's sales instantly drowned out the sales of all Zhang Tan's novels. The best novel he has sold so far is the 2.4 million copies of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".

"With the current sales momentum, will we sell three million copies?" When Wei Ranzhi invited Zhang Tan to dinner to contact his feelings, he spoke with a hint of trill, this kind of sales figure, except for selling textbooks, is almost impossible to achieve. Now it has been reached by a martial arts novel.

How not amazing.

Soon Xiangxiang and Taiwan also came with sales figures, Taiwan Crown Publishing House sold 600,000 copies in a month in Taiwan, and the total population of Taiwan was only 20 million.

Xiangxiang Xinya Culture, which radiates the entire Southeast Asia and even the Chinese in Europe and the United States, has also sold a total of 300,000 copies.

In other words, the first volume of "Tianlong Babu", combined with simplified and traditional Chinese, sold 3.5 million copies, which is definitely an unforgettable number for all domestic writers.

The foreign news section of South Korea's Chosun Ilbo mentioned the sales figures of Jang Tan's novels, saying: "This is an incredible amount, and the number of novels sold by him (Tan Chang) alone may be more than the number of novels sold in South Korea in a year." ”

Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" also said: "Every time Tan Zhang brings new shocks to the world, he is a world-class best-selling author well-deserved by the Chinese." ”

"Star Siam Daily" is the largest mainstream Chinese-language newspaper in Thailand, and it has a large section to report on the novel "Dragon Babu", calling it "phenomenal", "proof of Chinese culture going global", "the greatest work of the young generation" and so on.

"Zhang Tan is one of the most successful writers in Asia since the new millennium. All over the world, Western writers, represented by J.K. Rowling, have always created one book feast after another, and now Zhang Tan has also opened a book feast for Oriental writers. Even Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun reported on the event.

At the same time, the Yomiuri Shimbun also pointed out that Tan Zhang's martial arts novels have been translated into Japanese by Tokuma Publishing House and sold in Japan, and the sales are very good. (To be continued.) )
