Chapter 1 Life is about constant failure
'Ding Dong' the most beautiful sound in the world suddenly sounded.
In the middle of the heated café, a lone contractor at a round table stares at her phone with the screen facing down on the side of the dessert.
'Come! Come! Come! I prayed like a mantra in my heart for the sound of this dingdong, hoping that it was not the sound of the manuscript payment.
Where there is expectation, there will be results.
She picked up the glass and took a sip of the lemon tea that was about to freeze the Tianling cover, and then she grabbed her phone with her energy.
‘... Didn't pass ......'
Her expression froze a little, and she didn't need to read the full text of the email. The words 'failed' have shattered her dream of making a fortune.
As for the full text of this kind of email, she knows very well that the article is remarkable in the front, and you fail in the middle, and continue to work hard at the end and welcome to submit again.
"Ha ......" sighed and put down his phone, staring at the last meal of this short-term trip on the table, the price of big cities is too high, and it is only suitable for short-term consumption for a week of back and forth.
She is a full-time 36-line coder, with a monthly full attendance plus subscription and rewards from the fairy bosses, there is no problem with income and clothing, but the housing prices in small cities, she will not eat or drink for ten years, and she still can't afford the area of a toilet.
Recently, there is a "million jackpot to win" activity on the code word website, one million after tax, one-time payment, must be completed within three months, and the company's selected work account will directly remit one million.
There is no conventional first, second, and third prize, and the number of novels selected is uncertain, there are no performance data indicators, and there is no restriction on the genre of the subject.
It only needs to be the exclusive first work on the website, and it is also signed with a combination and an attachment like the usual manuscript. Regardless of whether you get a bonus or not, you can get a contract for full attendance, subscription, and sharing.
The hard condition is that the new article must be completed within the three-month time limit, and the full text must be more than 200,000 words.
She is a branch of a listed company, and there is no need to consider whether the bonus will really arrive, as long as you can succeed!
But this feeling is a bit of a virtual activity, very unrealistic, very exciting, very intense, very ...... Scratching your head.
No one in the codeword circle knows what they write will be chosen, and the five books that have been selected are all worlds apart.
The subject matter is repeated, and the reading volume is also at the bottom, famous authors, and authors who opened articles for the first time.
The ultimate purpose of this unconventional activity of the website by the major code word forums is also a public opinion.
One of them is that I agree. Even if the final manuscript fee is 10 million yuan from the website, the selected book will not be returned, and the benefits brought by this activity to the listed company behind the website will only be profitable.
She doesn't have time to look at Weibo and other places where information is concentrated, and she doesn't have any circle of friends to see, but it was said on the codeword forum that this event brought immeasurable growth to the website in terms of readers, authors, contributions, social discussions, exposure, advertisers, stocks, etc.
And the five authors who have already been selected for their works are well-known and do not matter, in addition to this million I heard that they also earn more.
Hey, these are the two books she's written in her second month of activity. Failure is the answer, and you are not destined to get rich!
It would be nice if I had waited until I got home this email that I had failed.
There is still a month left.
Forget it, don't contribute, earn full attendance subscriptions, and collect some tips from the big guys.
Website first? Fantasized about the impossible.
Overnight popularity? Actually, after writing a few years of old fans, a QQ group is not satisfied.
The red line of code words is money, she is not popular, and she doesn't have much money.
What a failed life.
