Chapter 15: Dreams Set Sail
After signing the contract with Mr. Fat, Su Jin walked out of the publishing house. Originally, Fat always wanted to invite Su Jin to dinner together, but Su Jin declined, he said that he wanted to walk outside, so he walked out by himself.
It's about seven o'clock now, and it's the most prosperous time in the ancient city, and the streets are full of pedestrians! Su Jin walked down the street, still thinking about the website in his head.
In fact, he is well aware that the future of doing web novels is not very good. Even if he has the support of the system, he can always write masterpieces, and he can reach or even surpass the status of those great gods in later generations, but so what.
At best, Su Jin can only get rich monetary rewards, but in terms of social status and influence, he is far from being comparable to those traditional writers.
It is not for nothing that the Internet is called "fast food culture", this kind of culture usually only allows people to enter the spiritual pleasure of entering the illusory world, but readers still have to return to the real world after all.
However, most of the Internet culture is poorly written, lacks connotation, and cannot make people reminisce, so most of them are for readers to read! It's rare for someone to watch the same web novel two or three times. This is also the main reason why the physical sales of web novels are declining!
It can be said that even in later generations, the Internet is still despised by many publishing houses, and many online authors are also despised by traditional authors.
And the main reason why Su Jin still chose this industry as his original industry is because of the system! That's right, it's because of the system! You must know that Su Jin's biggest reliance is not rebirth, although rebirth has given him decades of experience, but Su Jin, who has always been just a small clerk in his previous life, has a few difficulties in understanding the whole society, and most of them are superficial.
Decades of experience can certainly make him rich and prosperous in this life, but if you want to really go to the peak and become the existence of influencing all living beings, it is far from enough, the division of labor in modern society is clear, and it is difficult to really master this industry without an in-depth understanding of the industry as a whole!
But the system is different! The product of this unknown era was the greatest invention of the entire human race at that time, and the crystallization of the entire human civilization. In the field of culture, it is a well-deserved artifact!
Only with it can Su Jin embark on a road of developing culture, spreading culture, controlling culture, and finally relying on culture to reach the peak!
The significance of culture is not what people usually think is just about some works. His meaning is very broad, culture is the gradual accumulation of knowledge or experience related to their own life in the process of their development, culture is: all material and spiritual representation can represent the existence of cultural relics, the essence of culture is the comprehensive embodiment of material and consciousness.
To put it simply, culture is knowledge! From this aspect, all disciplines and technologies in society are included in the culture!
And all of these things are found in the system! It can be said that if all the technologies carried by the system can be developed, Su Jin can create a modern society by himself!
But it is not without cost to get the information of the system, points and fans are the only two things required by the system, which complement each other!
Su Jin didn't know what kind of principle the system operated, and he didn't know why it had to have these two things, which was far beyond Su Jin's understanding, but he knew that only by obtaining these two things could he really get the capital to go to the top!
And web novels are the best way for him to get both!
The influence of traditional books is higher than that of online novels, and the status of traditional authors is indeed higher than that of online authors, but just like ancient classical Chinese, only those literati will read it! Moreover, it is difficult to say how many people will identify with the author when the literati are despised.
Although the Internet is known as "fast food culture" and "Xiaobaiwen", it is these "fast food culture" and "Xiaobaiwen" that have really entered thousands of households. Especially for young people and students! Ten years later, online novels can proudly say that I believe that every student and young person has read online novels!
And students and young people are the groups that are most likely to worship and generate fans, so the fans and points brought by online novels are far beyond the reach of tradition!
Of course, with the development of time, Su Jin will one day go to the road of publishing tradition, the Internet can cultivate fans for a while, but tradition can cultivate fans for a lifetime!
But this is a problem to be considered in the future, and the current Su Jin still has to focus on the development of online novels!

"Hey, Su Jin? I've already built the website you wanted, come and have a look! Qian Ling's pleasant voice rang on the other side of the phone.
"Really! Okay, you wait for me for a while, I'll be there right away! The overjoyed Su Jin responded.
Hehe, Miss Qian's actions are really fast enough, it only took three days for the website to be built, and she really deserves to be the top celebrity who has attacked the Pentagon!
Twenty minutes later, Su Jin appeared in front of Qian Ling's house. Qian Ling's parents are not at home today, and she is the only one at home today. After she let Su Jin into the house, she didn't talk nonsense, and directly led Su Jin to the computer to watch the website she designed for Su Jin!
The design of this website is quite simple, according to Su Jin's suggestion, the top left of the homepage is the registration/login mark, and directly above is the nine main recommended positions, which are placed on the books to be recommended by the website, and the distribution is a row of various books arranged according to the update time.
As for the two sides, there are two lists, one is the recommendation list, and the other is the collection list, just like a certain point in the future, users who register on the website can have the right to recommend and collect. There are also some signs like registered authors.
It's just a grass barn, and such facilities are enough! Since I don't plan to make money on the website, I don't have a subscription or anything like that, but the reward function is specially set up, which is to let those financially wealthy readers show their support for the book they recognize, and the amount of this reward belongs to the author!
"Haha, good, very good, that's it, Qian Ling, thank you, if I don't know how long it will take to make it!" Su Jin, who was satisfied, said to Qian Ling excitedly.
Qian Ling's face turned red, and she said with a smile: "What do you thank for our relationship, it should be!" β
"Okay now, I can officially upload the novel on it, click on this to register the author, right?" Su Jin asked, pointing to the sign on the webpage.
"Well, just click on it and follow the process!" Qian Ling said.
For example, when the author applies for and manages a work, he basically reproduces the setting of a certain point in the future in its entirety, but slightly modifies it according to the current actual situation.
Following the process of the website, Su Jin successfully registered the author, and finally the name, Su Jin chose his real name Su Jin as always! But what Su Jin didn't expect now is that as he becomes more and more famous in the future and has more and more fans, his real-name writing method is becoming more and more recognized, and almost 80% of the authors in the future have chosen real-name writing. made those strange screen names in the previous life never appear again!
uploaded his previously written novel to the Internet, because it was the first novel on the website, and it was his own novel, so it was natural to wait for the first main position.
"Breaking the Sky, is this a novel you wrote? Is it also a martial arts novel? Qian Ling looked at the huge four words and asked.
"No, this kind of novel is fundamentally different from martial arts novels, I call it a fantasy novel!" Su Jin said with a smile.
"Fantasy novels? What do you mean? Qian Ling said suspiciously.
Su Jin smiled and said, "I won't tell you the specifics, you can see for yourself." Then you'll understand why it's called a fantasy novel. β
After that, Su Jinyou logged in to the Sitong Lifang forum, opened the four posts he uploaded "The First Time", although it has been nearly a month since the original post, but the post is still very popular, every day new tourists come in to watch, and those tourists in the city who have not yet sold "The First Time" are discussing the plot and follow-up plots in the post. And those who have already seen it are triumphantly spoilers.
Su Jin wrote directly in the comments: "Open a new book "Breaking the Sky" on the Dream Starting Point Network, please go over and watch it. Then he pinned his comment to the top.
Su Jin's screen name in Stone Lifang is Su Jin, and as soon as he saw him speak, readers who were on the forum immediately knew that the author was coming. Suddenly, the already lively comment area became even more popular, and many netizens sent various dialogues.
"Is it Su Jinda? I'm ##ε°ηθ―»θ , when will we start releasing "The First Time", I always listen to spoilers from my predecessors, I can't see the book, and my heart is itching! "Flying birds
Obviously, this is a netizen in a city where "The First Time" has not yet been released.
Su Jin patiently replied: "The second promotion of "The First Time" is underway, and it will be available in 80% of cities across the country by then, ##δΉε¨ε ΆδΈ!" As soon as I finished replying, I saw several comments flashing on my face.
"Su Jinda, what new book is you, is it a sequel to "The First Time"?" Burning apples.
"What kind of network is the dream starting point network, I haven't heard of it, how to get in." Exploding Boy Chickens.
"I heard that the name is a martial arts novel, could it be that Su Jin has greatly entered the field of martial arts." Flying ears.
"It's not a sequel to "The First Time", this is a fantasy novel, I posted the URL of the Dream Starting Point Network in the forum, you can go and see it, it is guaranteed to be exciting, it is absolutely different from martial arts!" Su Jin recovered.
β¦β¦
After chatting with netizens for two hours, Su Jincai reluctantly got off the Internet, and he still enjoyed this feeling of being sought after.
Su Jin looked at the time, and before he knew it, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and if he stayed longer, he was afraid that he would be caught by Qian Ling's parents who came back, although the relationship between himself and Qian Ling has always been close, but it will not be easy to explain at that time.
hurriedly said goodbye to Qian Ling, Qian Ling obviously knew that Su Jin shouldn't stay more now, and blamed Su Jin for chatting with netizens just now, and accidentally forgot the time. So I didn't keep him, and sent him out directly.
