Some words surnamed Yi, no gentleman does not raise an artist
For almost every book, I have a large number of pirated readers, that is, those who read my books on websites other than Iron, or some mobile apps.
Sometimes I really can't figure out, if you like the story I tell, why are you reluctant to spend two or three cents a day to read my genuine book?
I've also talked to some pirate readers, and there are just a few reasons why they don't read my genuine books.
I'm a junior high school student.
I'm a high school student.
I'm a college student.
I just started work and I wasn't stable
The above translates to one sentence: I am very poor, and I can't afford to eat my poor.
To be honest, you really don't have to explain anything to me, and you don't have to cry poor to me, after all, strictly speaking, I am poorer than you, and I still have a large family to support.
It's not easy for anyone, so this thing can't be forced, you are reluctant to spend money to see the genuine version is your freedom.
It's like some people like copycats, some people like to get something for nothing, and some people like to read pirated books.
In fact, in the final analysis, you can do whatever you like, and you would rather throw a few cents of a steel hammer to listen to the sound than use these few cents to read your genuine book.
I really don't force it, after all, it's a matter of personal consciousness, and it's not interesting to force it.
But can I ask those who watch piracy, please don't explain to me the reasons why those ghosts don't believe in it, and then go online with iPhone, QQ members and all kinds of drill logos in the group to show off their wealth and say what happened to them today, and finally said by the way: "The surname is easy!" I'm really rooting for you! ”
I'm really hurting, are you slapping me in the face, or are you hitting yourself in the face?
You can think about it, a reader added my Q, or entered my book friend group, and then the first sentence was, Lao Yi, you write so well, I support you.
When I saw this, I was so moved that I was typing to thank you, and his next sentence was.
"I read your book on XXX (a pirated APP), and I will always support you!"
When he said this, I suddenly became very sad and asked him, why don't you come to sharpen the iron?
The answer he gave me was simple and realistic.
"Why pay to watch it if it's free?!"
I don't like to be pretentious, but seriously, when I hear this kind of thing, I really feel bad, and I want to scold too, but I hold back.
Because I'm the author, I can't do that.
So many times I will reflect, is it because the articles I write are too rubbish, so many people are not willing to spend money to read them?
After that, I didn't say anything, so I asked him, do you spend money for Mao to support my genuine?
His answer was popular, and it was a justifiable answer for many pirate readers.
"I'm still a student and I don't have any money."
Well, you have the money to open a QQ member, you have the money to play games, and you have the money to change the latest mobile phone, but you don't have that few cents to support me?
It's very hypocritical, but it's actually very sad.
The current social atmosphere is like this, and those who are free will never go and pay for it.
So more and more bad movies, more and more money-making games, and more and more plagiarized works are pouring out around us.
Since the conscience dramas that have been filmed and the works that have been written well have not been supported, and they all go to see pirated versions, it is better to just make a little money and plagiarize it, who will spend this kind of brain?
Starting from my first book "The Corpse of the Ghost Valley", until "The Dog-like Rivers and Lakes", and then to the current "The Great Coffin Man".
I have met countless pirated readers, and my attitude towards them has changed from indifference, to toleration, and finally to outburst.
Why the outbreak?
It's simple, I can't take it anymore.
"Dog-like Jianghu" is the only urban essay I have ever written, and it can be said that it took me a lot of effort to write, but what about the result?
Just because there were too many pirated readers and the genuine results were too poor, he was cut in half by the website.
Sometimes when I think about it, I'm really uncomfortable, there are a lot of people who watch pirated copies and have the face to scold me for being a bad eunuch, I really feel wronged, if it weren't for you pirates
After all, the book is written by me word by word, the plot is conceived by me little by little, I write the book steadily, that is, I didn't steal or rob, you who watch pirated copies are like an uncle, after reading the free ones, I dislike that disgusted, I'm sorry, I don't serve this kind of hooliganism.
I don't owe you.
I know that some pirated people will definitely jump out and say, "I can afford to read your book!" Look at your stinginess! You owe those cents! ”
Yes, I really owe those cents.
Because you don't understand what that few cents mean, it means clicks, traffic, subscriptions.
So what I want to say is that those readers who started to read pirated books, and later found out that they read genuine books, you don't have to ask me for an Alipay account because you are embarrassed, you really don't need to, your kindness is Yi's heart.
I welcome you to join our genuine family, because I need more than just a few cents, I need subscription data, clicks, and votes.
Only with all of this in place can my book go to the end.
I remember someone saying, "There are no people who have been supporting authors, paying, helping to recommend, retweet, upvote, follow, vote, where did you come from, watching free opportunities?" ”
Many pirate readers have the same attitude when they hear me asking them to support the original edition to avoid having my book cut in half.
"It's okay, I don't support it, there will be other people who support it anyway."
"I'll just pick up ready-made."
"If there is a ready-made one, I don't pick it up, I'll pay for someone else to pick it up, am I stupid?"
You're not stupid, I'm stupid!
I slept less than five hours a day stupidly, went to work during the day, conceived codewords at night, took out all the time I could spend with my family and entertainment time, and then had to endure the persecution of you pirated readers, yes, I was stupid.
I'm the biggest fool in the world.
So when I started this new book, I hesitated for a long time, and I asked myself, is it worth it?
What if this book had the same outcome as the previous one? What if there are still a large number of people who read pirated books? What if the words I worked so hard to code were cut in half again? So does it still make sense to open this book?
But I still opened this book, and I want to try again, even if you call me hypocritical, or say that I am too forceful, I want to give myself another chance.
So now, I've written this.
Seeing this, some friends will know that this is a testimonial on the shelf.
That's right, our book will be on the shelves tomorrow, as the name suggests, on the shelves, that is, it will cost money after reading this book.
Of course, this can also be regarded as a countdown to our new book.
If the grades are stable and not too bad, then you can write it well.
If the grades are poor and there are too few people who read the genuine subscription, then it will be like the previous book, and let the editor cut it halfway.
I've written testimonials about every book, but now I don't know how to write about them.
I've never written a book, I've never dragged it out, it's been updated steadily every day, and I've never stopped updating it since the first book.
I have done all this, and I will continue to do it in the future, and I will not disappoint my friends who support me.
It's useless to say so much, anyway, you are willing to support me, spend a few cents a day, and look at the words I worked so hard to code, then I sincerely thank you, thank you sincerely.
Because you gave me the confidence to keep writing, and you gave the book a future.
No gentleman does not raise an artist.
Thank you to those friends who supported me by looking at the genuine version.
Thank you, Xiao Jiu and the fox.
Thank you snail, the fifth, the fat, the uncomfortable, the fourth uncle, Tao Zeng, the mediocre z1 disturbed? , sebastian1030?, strange one? , qq150905191719, wandering saber, lazy in the bones, waking up and drunk Poch?(There are many more that are not listed one by one, the surname Yi is remembered, mainly because I can't write sorry)
Finally, I have to thank the editor, Brother Liangfan, Brother Moses, Brother Hanamai, thank you!
The surname is Yi, thank you.
