On September 15, 2ooo, the editor's office invited many contracted writers to watch the ceremony, and Wang Qinian symbolized the opening of a piece of cake, symbolizing the birth of today. ｀｀

Then, the cake is shared with everyone in the editorial department, which means that everyone has the opportunity to share the cake of the growth of online literature!

Next, the company's network engineers debugged the website program, and the website began to be tested internally and turned to the outside world.

"From today onwards, we are making history again!" Wang Qinian smiled and said to them, "History will remember this day, we are creating the history of online literature, before we were established, it was the prehistoric era of online literature!" After we were founded, the history of online literature really began! ”

Wang Qinian's domineering words suddenly made everyone cheer excitedly: "Mr. Wang is mighty!" ”

On the day of the opening of the website, it was in such an exciting atmosphere!

……

On the day of the official start of the war, the editors and authors of the website called on their fans and acquaintances to move to read and write books on the forum.

Novel writers who share their original works in the banners or free spaces of many major websites - as long as the works that fit the direction of the exhibition - overnight, they are almost emptied!

NetEase, Sina, West 6 and other websites have been impacted.

You know, these portals, in the early years, did not have much money and could not afford to buy original content. So, Tong guò offers the way of the so-called "free space". Fooling netizens to open some free spaces. It may seem like a free space is similar to a standalone website, but in reality, the ownership of the domain name, server space, and ownership belongs to these large companies.

As a result, many large companies unscrupulously reprint the content of their "free space" to their main sites, so as to obtain a large amount of cheap content.

Many webmasters in the free space eventually can't stand these large websites taking away their original content for free. So. They all left.

Although, these large portals offer free space and are a ploy. But it has to be said that in the early years. These large websites. It has indeed become the Whampoa Military Academy in the Internet industry. Lots of newcomers. Practice in the free space, and when you're full-fledged, you'll be on your own. As a result, the number of independent websites began to become a lot.

In the online literature industry, there was no independent website and domain name at the beginning. The online literature of prehistoric times all originated from the free space provided by some large websites and developed on it.

NetEase gives people the impression that it is very late to enter online literature, and it seems that after more than ten years, it is in a hurry to lay out online literature. But in fact, NetEase is really the predecessor of online literature, in 97 years, NetEase provided free space, and once incubated a lot of personal websites and websites of online literature.

However, soon after, some capitals that value online literary content acquired more than a dozen book stations that started businesses on the NetEase platform, and moved out of NetEase's free space to establish the "Golden Book House".

However, there was no genuine content in the early days of the Golden Book House, all of which were unauthorized, and a large number of martial arts novels were scanned and uploaded to the Internet. Later, Golden Book House encountered a copyright dispute, and after deleting the pirated content, it bought the Internet copyright of some traditional writers' works. However, these outdated copyrights are not willing to be bought by Internet readers at all, so after the Golden Book House burned all the money from venture capital, it hit the streets!

After the Golden Book House hit the streets, Dragon Sky, which was founded in 2ooo, learned its lesson. did not buy the Internet copyright of those outdated physical books, but operated in reverse, signed the online novel, and got the offline publication of the physical book. In the beginning, Dragon Sky did make a small profit, ignoring the risks of the publishing market, and eventually ...... Dragon Sky's investment in the brick-and-mortar publishing industry failed, and eventually, it also hit the streets. The copyright of the main library of its book station has been sold to peers, and only one forum remains, which has been maintained, and has always controlled the first station of gossip information in the online literature industry.

Before and after the dragon's sky hit the street, a bunch of book stations such as Fantasy Sword Book League, Starting Point, Mingyang, Cuiweiju, Tianying Literature, Fresh Literature, Crawling and so on have sprung up in the online literature industry.

After the battle for hegemony, the starting point smiled proudly and won the melee.

In the era of PC reading all day, the starting point is to fight the invincible opponents all over the world.

Until the later era of mobile phone reading, although the user scale of the starting point has doubled that of the mobile phone platform, the content scale is still the first.

……

On September 15, 2ooo, the day of the opening of the station, with the prestige of Jinhe in the online literature industry, and before the war, he attracted many authors who were serialized on the forum.

Now, this group of authors has shifted their positions to, which naturally attracted a large number of readers who have followed them, and they have to move their positions to.

"It's officially launched!"

“？ What the hell, haven't heard of it! ”

"The station opened by the small partner company is said to have attracted many well-known Internet writers, and even fantasy writers from Taiwan have been attracted to it."

"The first is Wang Qinian's masterpiece "The Gate of Destiny"? I also watched the movie version at the beginning! ”

"The Legend of Wukong is also here!"

"There is a god who has made "Ethereal Journey" level good-looking, I don't tease you!"

On the opening day, about 7o more novels were uploaded, but it attracted 2o million IP visits.

In addition, there were more than 1ooo readers registered on the same day.

Of course, 1 in 10 of the accounts are registered by the writers. However, a writer does not mean that he writes books specifically, in fact, if he doesn't like to read, who will write books? The vast majority of online literature writers are bookworms themselves, and may read more than many readers.

However, with Wang Qinian's guidance, at the beginning of the novel, it was at the stage of free public chapters, and paid attention to the exhibition of paid readers.

There is no VIP chapter at the beginning, how can readers pay?

In this regard, Wang Qinian is confident - just open the reward function! For some favorite authors and books, readers can take the form of rewards to sponsor. 5o% for websites and 5o% for authors!

Of course, if the author has signed a contract, the reward income will be used as the manuscript fee. If there is no contract, the reward income will be transferred to the author's reader's account as the starting currency.

In addition, where the starting point website opened, Wang Qinian focused on creating a physical book sales channel. Later, because I didn't cultivate the online sales market for physical books at the beginning, it was very difficult to cultivate it later.

And if the website starts to build a physical book sales platform, it will be easier to engage in this market in the future. The sale of these physical books is actually to attract readers to recharge and pay, and lay a good foundation for the future online version to open VIP reading.

On the first day of the station, three books "The Gate of Destiny", "The Legend of Wukong" and "Journey to the West: The Great Sage" received tips from readers, and the amount was between 1oo starting coins ~ 588 starting coins.

However, this also proves that the market for online literature has a lot to offer. For the time being, the income is minimal, but Wang Qinian knows. After some authors have been serialized for a long time and have received the support of a large number of hardcore fans, whether it is a reward or a follow-up VIP subscription, it will be quite impressive!

Wait until some works that have passed the market test are selected, and the partner company will further package it, publishing, film and television adaptation, game adaptation, etc., everything is possible!

In essence, Wang Qinian's expectations are far beyond the platform of "VS Battle". (To be continued!)
