Chapter 19: Comfort on the Shelf
After learning about Dong Jie's situation from Xia Hongyuan, Xia Feng's previous little grudge against Dong Jie was also much relieved. The www.biquge.info thinks that there is a "big sister" in the house who can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, and can beat the robbers and scare the hooligans, which is actually quite good in theory.
Dong Jie's side had to buy some necessities for life because he had to match the keys and buy some necessities, so Xia Feng felt that the other party would not come back so soon.
Today, because of Dong Jie's unexpected visitor, he didn't have the heart to go to the gym, so he simply turned on the computer boredly and began to read his new book.
In the past half a month, he has passed on a total of more than 400,000 words according to the strong update volume of 30,000 words per day, and the current collection is okay, but the clicks and recommendations are relatively average, and he is at the last place in the list of new books in the classification.
As for those in front of him, most of them are new books by old authors.
Glancing at the comment area below, although there are not many messages from book fans, there are more than 200 of them.
There are those who give advice, those who have experience in irrigation, and of course, all kinds of advertisements are indispensable, as well as all kinds of low-end blacks that stand on the subjective supremacy point.
When Xia Feng first started writing books, he would still care about book reviews, and he would be as combative as if he had been beaten because others praised him. It will make him languishing because someone scolds him.
But after writing a few books, he was left with pure numbness to all kinds of book reviews.
Because in the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand Hamlets, and as an author, it is impossible for you to ask for this, write this today, ask for that, and write that tomorrow.
People who think it tastes right will always look at it, and those who think it's bad will either leave or spray you and then leave.
That's just a few results.
But what made Xia Feng a little happy was that he saw several readers asking for this book again in the QQ group.
It can be seen that his new book has already had a slight fan effect.
It's just that he has no plans to open a QQ group at present, and he thinks about waiting for it.
Just when Xia Feng closed the webpage and was about to write some more manuscripts, his editor-in-charge suddenly talked to him on QQ.
"Ready, ready to be put on the shelves on Monday."
To put it bluntly, there is no good recommendation, and it is quietly put on the shelf. Generally, it is to allow new authors to have an income, so they are allowed to open VIP chapters.
Xia Feng naturally knows the meaning of comforting the shelves, but his book is obviously okay in terms of grades, after all, the supernatural is the mainstream here, and it is not too much to recommend a homepage.
"Editor-in-charge, I am very confident in this book, and I have a lot of manuscripts in storage, and I will update it faster after I put it on the shelves, can you arrange a homepage for me to strongly recommend?
My collection of this book is okay. ”
Xia Feng sent it over nervously, but the other party replied very briefly:
"The recommendation slot on the homepage is tight."
Although the editor in charge did not directly say the words to death, this seemingly euphemistic sentence was actually rejecting him.
Xia Feng was very unhappy in his heart, because he was still quite confident in his book, as long as the website could give him a similar recommendation, he believed that this book would be able to emerge from the vast sea of books.
But it seems that the website does not want to give him this opportunity.
However, he can also understand that there are hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of authors on the website, and there are only a few recommended positions, which are naturally for authors who can produce results.
After all, the purpose of engaging in novel websites is to make money, and as for the noble spirit of Hongxing culture, it is just done in passing.
Therefore, writing a book is the same as doing sales, everything is based on performance.
Without achievements, there is no right to speak, let alone the right to make demands.
Xia Feng was unhappy in his heart, but after all, he was also an old player in this industry, so he quickly calmed down.
It's gold that always shines, and he doesn't believe that if he updates it so quickly every day, and with quality and quantity, no reader will be able to discover him.
Dong Jie didn't come back with a lot of things until it was almost dark.
Xia Feng had just finished coding at that time, and was looking for new resources on the Internet to watch and watch, so Dong Jie came back.
Seeing Dong Jie put down the things she was carrying one after another without much effort, Xia Feng didn't want to go over to help, but thinking of what happened to her, some sympathy rose in his heart, so he left the chair and walked over quickly.
"I'll help you get it in."
Dong Jie saw Xia Feng carrying her quilt and two other two bags of things and walking into the bedroom, Dong Jie's cold face couldn't help but melt a little, but she didn't say anything, and followed Xia Feng into the bedroom with her things.
"It's all my clothes in this cupboard, and there's no place outside, so it's hard for me to take them.
But I don't have a lot of clothes, and I still have more than half of the empty space, which should be enough for you. ”
After Xia Feng put Dong Jie's things down, he pointed to the big wardrobe placed in the corner of Qiang and said.
"I see."
Dong Jie nodded expressionlessly, and there was no trace of gratitude on his face. Just as Xia Feng pursed his lips and was about to go out, Dong Jie suddenly asked:
"If you don't go out at night, I'll cook now."
"Do what?"
Hearing that Dong Jie was going to cook for him, Xia Feng turned his head again and asked curiously.
"I only bought eggs and persimmons."
"Scrambled persimmons with eggs?"
"Hmm."
"Okay, I still like this dish."
Xia Feng is actually not a picky eater, of course, as long as he is not allowed to eat radish. For example, white radish, green radish, carrot, as long as it is a radish, he doesn't like to eat it.
Dong Jie began to pack up her things, Xia Feng then came out of the bedroom, sat on the sofa and was bored for a while, then took out her mobile phone to call Wang Wanru.
"What are you doing?"
"I didn't do anything, I just did a set of self-study exam papers for the next semester, and I'm resting on the bed."
Wang Wanru's voice was still sweet and good, and Xia Feng could feel that she was in a good mood today.
"Self-study exam papers for the next semester? Awesome, a scholar. ”
"I don't have a good brain, so I can only fly first. What have you been up to lately? ”
Wang Wanru took the initiative to care about Xia Feng.
"You may not believe it, but I've been writing novels lately."
"Writing a novel? I remember that you never scored 10 points in your essay, and you lied to me again. ”
Wang Wanru didn't believe Xia Feng's writing of the novel at all, Xia Feng was a little speechless after hearing it, but he didn't emphasize it again. At this time, I heard Wang Wanru say again:
"Great, school is finally going to start tomorrow and the holidays are so boring. By the way, Xia Feng, have you finished your summer homework? ”
"School starts tomorrow? Belch...... And what is summer homework......"
Xia Feng always thought that there were still a few days before the start of school, but he didn't expect to go to school tomorrow. As for the summer vacation homework, he carefully flipped through the memory of his body, and it didn't exist at all, so it turned out that Xia Feng didn't even listen to it.
"Well, I knew you wouldn't do your homework. But don't worry, I've been idle for the past few days, so I've made one for you. I'll give it to you tomorrow when I go to school. ”
Hearing Wang Wanru say that he had done a homework for himself, Xia Feng couldn't help but feel some warmth in his heart, although he didn't think that there was anything wrong with not writing summer homework, it was mainly Wang Wanru's heart.
"Looks like I'm going to break my fortune again."
"Why do you say that?"
"You've done me such a great favor, I have to treat me anyway."
"I think there's some truth to what you're saying."
The two of them talked about the phone for a while, and Xia Feng hung up the phone in a good mood, and wanted to pick up Wang Wanru to go to school together tomorrow morning, but Wang Wanru was afraid that they would be misunderstood by their classmates when they went to school together, and then spread some bad words, so she didn't agree.
After all, one of them is the teacher's preferred learning top, and the other is a poor student who does not learn and has no skills, if the teacher knows that they are so close, it is absolutely indispensable to spit on Wang Wanru's ideological education.
Waiting for him to finish the call, Dong Jie's side was almost cleaned up, and the bedroom door opened again after being closed for a while, and then, I saw Dong Jie change into a close-fitting pajamas and walked out of it expressionlessly.
Without looking at him, he went straight into the kitchen.
