Chapter 173 Troubles without money, troubles with money
In November, the new starting point network entered a stage of stable development. All departments work in a step-by-step, intense and orderly manner.
Chang Zheng finally calmed down for a while and was able to code words with peace of mind. He accomplished his goal, and in November, he regained the speed of the jet, yarding 450,000 words, updating "Full Time Master" to 2.09 million words.
The original work of "Full-time Master" has more than 4 million words, and according to the rhythm of the original work, less than half of the 2.09 million words are written.
Chang Zheng sped up the pace and wrote the plot as tightly as possible. The original book was written to 2.09 million, and Ye Xiu and his Xingxin team were preparing to play the "Glory" professional league.
Chang Zheng wrote 2.09 million words, and Ye Xiu and his Xingxin team have played eight rounds of professional leagues. The Xingxin team, under the leadership of Ye Xiu, had just defeated the Blue Rain team of the "Sword Saint" Huang Shaotian. Huang Shaotian scolded his mother, and trash talked about Ye Xiu for a night.
Chang Zheng spent a lot of effort to shape Huang Shaotian, and strived to shape the image of this classic supporting role.
It seems that Chang Zheng is well shaped, and readers like Huang Shaotian very much.
The moderator of the book review area of "Full-time Master" held a prize voting activity, and he scattered 10,000 yuan of Chinese coins, and all book fans who participated in the voting could get a certain amount of starting coins.
The book fans were too enthusiastic, and the local tyrant moderator found that the 10,000 yuan was scattered in half a day. So he added another ten thousand.
Within three hours, the additional 10,000 pieces were also dispersed.
Chang Zheng couldn't help it, so he invested 10,000 yuan to sponsor the local tyrant moderator. The 10,000 yuan will be dispersed in two hours.
It's a bottomless pit!
After scattering 30,000 yuan, the moderator had no choice but to close the voting post.
In less than a day, 300,000 book lovers participated in the voting drive. On average, each person can get 10 starting coins, which is equivalent to a dime in Chinese dollars.
It's really not a dime, and now I can't even afford to sit on the bus for a dime. The buses in Nangang City are two yuan for one ride, and the card is 1 yuan and 8 cents.
But the book fans are still very enthusiastic, and they have a lot of fun and have a good time. There is a lively and unavoidable gathering, sorry for the people, sorry for the leadership. There are water stickers that don't irrigate, I'm sorry for the new starting point network, I'm sorry for the gods.
Weixin red envelopes are a penny, it's not that someone is grabbing it, and if your hands are shaking and cramping, you have to grab a penny back. Chopping hands is a long and hard work, easy to say, but difficult to implement, few people will have the courage and determination to chop. The most difficult thing for people to pass is their own level.
Voting for scattered wealth is actually a kind of momentum and operation. The local tyrant moderator is actually unintentional. People just have a lot of money and love to be lively. As soon as I started it, hundreds of thousands of people were enthusiastically irrigated, which is also a very face-saving thing, and it is the talk of the local tyrants after dinner.
Whether it is unintentional or intentional, through this voting activity, you can also see the popularity of "Full-time Master" from the side. Many book friends who don't have a new starting point account and only watch pirated copies, in order to be able to vote and pour a few liters of water, they also deliberately registered a new starting point account.
In any case, you can let book friends who never register an account register an account. It's also a few more potential customers. High-quality customers are to be slowly accumulated and cultivated. Hooking them up to sign up for an account is the first step.
It is a long process from the general meeting to the high V, and it may take several years to successfully transform into a successful one. But without a new starting point account, it can't be a general meeting. It will never be transformed into a high V.
Looking at the voting results, Chang Zheng also felt a little surprised. The voting content is: Which three characters in "Full Time Master" do you like the most?
NO.1 must be Ye Xiu, there is no doubt about it. The protagonist can't become NO.1, which means that the author is a failure.
NO.2 was led away by Su Mucheng by a slight advantage. Tang Rou ranked No.3.
The top three characters in the book "Full-time Master" are all expected by Chang Zheng, and Huang Shaotian ranks fourth among the most popular characters among readers, which is not far behind.
What surprised Chang Zheng was. The fifth place is actually Wei Chen, and the sixth is Fang Rui.
Wei Chen and Fang Rui are both characters who have no discipline and a very low bottom line. It's kind of obscene suo-stream.
Wang Jiexi, Yu Wenzhou, Han Wenqing and others ranked low. The top masters in the three of their books are not as popular as Baozi.
Chang Zheng sighed, it seems that readers have a very strong taste, and the characters with obscene flow and no lower limit are more popular.
Could it be that I'm often good at creating this kind of undisciplined character? It seems that my level of creating this kind of undisciplined, unlimited, and comical character has surpassed the butterfly god.
Since readers like this kind of funny characters, let's let them appear more later.
When it comes to business writing, of course, you have to take care of the reader's preferences.
This is also the difference between online articles and the traditional publishing industry, or an advantage. The author can interact with the reader in real time, dynamically grasp the reader's reading mentality, and make certain adjustments according to the reader's likes and dislikes.
I write my heart by hand, admittedly, for an author. But from a market perspective, you have to write the voice of most readers.
Online writers writing online articles are no longer just burying their heads in writing books. Chang Zheng knows it well, and he hopes that the authors under his command will do so.
Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, and the reader is the water. The work is like a boat in the water, and the author is the helmsman. A helmsman who is familiar with hydrology can sail for a long time. Manage the readers well, and the readers will let the author realize what "good is like water".
In November, Chang Zheng managed his readers very well. New Beginnings is also gradually managing all its readers.
On November 20th, New Beginnings held the second training course for authors. Mr. Cang took the stage again to give a lecture and gave face-to-face lectures to the second batch of 50 authors and students.
In addition to talking about writing skills, he also focused on how to manage his own readership.
Water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, and empathize with the heart. Mr. Cang hopes that the author and students can remember these sixteen words, hook up with their own readers more, and serve the readers comfortably, so that you can be full of wine and food.
Chang Zheng felt that writing books was really not tiring for him at all, he wrote very hilariously and coolly. How he wished it would always be November.
But November still quickly flipped over.
Entering December, Chang Zheng is starting to get busy again.
The problem of funds that plagued the standing levy has been initially resolved.
In November, the subscription fee, reward, and various paid props of the New Start Network, etc., the New Start Network earned 3.12 million. Among them, the reward and subscription of the book "Full-time Master" brought nearly one million yuan of income to Chang Zheng's personal and actually to the new starting point network.
Although "Full-time Master" has earned nearly one million, its proportion of revenue generation is declining. From almost 100% at the beginning, it dropped to 50% after the arrival of Meijuju and others, and now it is less than 30%.
The absolute profit of "Full-time Master" is increasing, but the proportion is decreasing. What does this mean? Illustrates that the rest of the authors of the New Beginnings Network are on the rise.
Chang Zheng is very happy to see this situation, and he hopes that the prosperous era of a hundred flowers blooming in spring can come to the new starting point as soon as possible.
The reason why Fenghua.com is awesome is because they don't just have a sword god. In addition to the Sword God, they also have dozens of top gods with different styles surrounding the Sword God, creating a new era together.
Chang Zheng also hopes that in addition to the gods, there will be a number of great gods around him to assist him. Join him in a new era.
At present, except for Cangshen, who is considered a top god, the authors of other new starting point networks are not top-notch. Mei Ju and Huang Haifeng are the most promising to win the title of "top" at the earliest, so Chang Zheng has to operate them. It's really difficult to become a god in one book, so if you work on it, two books can always become a god, right?
Chang Zheng's second income is the share of physical book sales for the three months of September, October, and November of "Evil Spirit", which is his personal income. Taking advantage of the big sales of the movie "Evil Spirit", its physical book was also stained, and 750,000 sets were sold in three months, and Chang Zheng got a sales share of 7.1 million yuan after tax.
With the 200,000 sets of "Evil Awe-inspiring" sold before, as of early December, 950,000 copies of "Evil Awe-inspiring" have been sold.
There are still 20 days left in December, and this year is coming to an end. With another 50,000 copies sold, "Evil Awe" will sell one million copies a year, becoming a super bestseller of the year.
Looking at the 7.1 million yuan of entity share income that arrived, Chang Zheng was very red-eyed, very red-eyed. It's helpless, it's helpless.
Sitting on more than 7 million yuan, he is still red-eyed and helpless?
The physical book of "Evil Awe" is divided, and Chang Zheng takes 15%, and the 15% Fenghua Network will also take 30%.
7.1 million divided by 0.7 and divided by 0.15 is the total sales created by "Evil Awe" in these three months. It's nearly 70 million yuan.
So Chang Zheng was very helpless and red-eyed. Of 70 million, he can only take 7.1 million. If I don't make this book for Suzaku Company, I don't make it for any publishing house, and I publish it myself, then it's all mine.
Of course, excluding costs, it will definitely not earn 70 million, but it will definitely be more than 7.1 million. If I make a publication by myself and sell it myself.
I can't help it, the copyright has been sold. In the future, Chang Zheng also wants to get involved in the publishing industry. Suzaku Company is also a private cultural company, why can't I do it if they can do it?
The third income is the advertising fee of the new starting point network in November, which was paid by the Qiandu Advertising Alliance to the new starting point network, with a total of 5.51 million.
The sum of the three incomes is 15.73 million, and there are more than 2 million before the standing levy, excluding the expenses in November, the company currently has 16.21 million yuan in the company's account. Chang Zheng and Dou Yan finally became multimillionaires through hard work. Thank you for the big network era! For those who dare to think and dare to do, it is not impossible to make reasonable use of resources and get rich quickly.
So in December, Chang Zheng is busy again. For ordinary people, this more than 10 million yuan may not be seen in a lifetime, and they will not be able to spend it in a lifetime.
But for a new starting company that is in a booming period, it may be spent in a month.
Chang Zheng is looking at the more than 16 million, and he is worrying about it, where should he spend it?
There are a lot of places to spend money, and it doesn't seem to be enough!
There is no money to worry about, and there is money to worry even more! (To be continued......)
