Let's take a look
The nervousness before the shelves is finally not apprehensive, but a little cool.
Our book now has 1.3 million hits, and the hits are more than 50,000 every day, which shows that there are many readers reading it every day.
But I don't know what kind of mood I am in now, I can tell you that there are 1.3 million clicks, more than 50,000 clicks a day, and there are only more than 200 subscriptions.
What is the ratio? What do 200 subscriptions mean? I can tell you that each subscription is a dime and a half cents, and two hundred subscriptions are thirty yuan, and I can earn more than ten yuan according to the share between the author and the website.
And my daily working hours, except for a simple meal, from the morning, to more than one o'clock in the morning in the middle of the night, all my working hours, how tired not to mention, cervical spondylosis, shoulder disease, eye disease, all the author's occupational diseases, I did not leave any of them.
However, such a huge effort is rewarded in return.
Actually, I don't want to say this, but this morning, the behavior of a reader touched the anger of an author.
He said in the comments that although the author writes very well, his conscience is very bad, his character is not good, he despises the black-hearted author, collects everyone's money, and says that he wants to escape from my means of making money, says that I pimp, says that I calculate everyone, and even all kinds of swear words to scold my father and mother and scold the whole family, I will not say it, and finally said that he wants to express his anger.
When I saw this person's comments, I really wanted to drop the computer and never write again, and my heart was broken into countless pieces.
I just want to say that every author writes a book and uses his own hard work in exchange for a meager manuscript fee, is this wrong? Working more than fifteen hours a day, sitting in front of the computer is a whole day, day and night, without any entertainment, dragging a worse and worse body, charging a dime and a half cents for each chapter, and the author only earns a few cents, excuse me, how are we blackhearted? How is our conscience so bad? Do you have to be despised if you rely on your own labor to earn money and eat? We don't steal, we don't rob, we don't cheat or hurt people, every word is written with sweat and hard work, how can we become heinous bad people?
I just want to say, don't you need money to go out to eat in restaurants? Don't you need money to go out and take a car? Don't you need money to call? Even if you go to the zoo to see the monkeys, you still have to buy a ticket, right? But how did it come to the place of paying to read books, it became a matter of course that it was free to pay, and it was not tolerable to charge for it, could it be that we, the hard-working authors, don't have to eat, don't have to support our families, don't have to do anything, and should stay at home every day without eating or drinking to write books for everyone, is that so? Dear, even if we don't eat or drink, don't even wear clothes, and give everyone code words with bare buttocks, don't we have to pay our electricity bills? Do I need to pay the Internet fee? Don't you spend money on a computer?
Besides, a work requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources from creation, website signing, publication, promotion, operation, and maintenance. Why should you get something for nothing? To put it mildly, do we owe you in our last life?
When I was writing a book for everyone here, who knows, the day before yesterday, my mother-in-law came to Harbin to see a doctor, and I was not accompanied throughout the whole process, only last night I went out to see it, and almost all of the time I tried my best to code words for everyone, because I can understand everyone's mood of being anxious to read books, but how many people can understand us authors who have given up a lot of things in order to write books? Looking at piracy and scolding those who charge, you also have a little conscience, okay.
I would like to say to the unknown person who commented this morning, and to those who think that piracy is justified and that fees are guilty, and that we authors have neither deserved nor owed you anything, you want to make money to eat, and we authors are also human beings, and we also need to earn money to eat, that's all. Don't talk about our black hearts, you only need ten yuan to read a book for a month, is there any cheaper entertainment in this world? Pat your conscience when you speak, are you embarrassed? I can't understand how angry you're still outraged.
If there are still people who don't understand that, then please sit down and try to conceive a book, create a book, experience it, and you will understand the hard work of an author, and you will understand why there are authors who die suddenly every year. I want to say, if we want to make money, we can go out and work for thousands of yuan, so why not take a meager income and write a book here with our lives?
Someone also said that those singers, everyone doesn't need money to listen to songs on the Internet, and they are also free. But have you ever thought about it, singers have signing fees, performance fees, and there are many ways to make money. But what about us authors? In addition to making a little money every day by subscribing, where is the other income? Please don't bring up the version, that money is not even as much as a subscription, and even less than a year's worth of being a cleaner, don't you believe it? But that's just the way it is.
Having said all this, does anyone still think that the income from writing books can support a family's life? Can you even feed a person? Does anyone still think that the author is a high-income group? Does anyone still think that there should be no charge for reading books? Does anyone think that those of us who rack our brains all day long to write good books for everyone to like are all heinous and bad people with bad consciences?
The quality of a book absolutely depends on the strong support and encouragement of readers, because that is the author's source of motivation, if the author's heart is cold, then don't talk about any creation, wash and go home to sleep, the authors can't even eat, what books do they write, simply all the authors collectively change careers, and go out to move bricks.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again today: if writing doesn't make a living, writers will stop writing; If all books are free to read, there will be no books to read in the long run.
Piracy is not only killing all authors, but also cannibalizing you, dear readers and friends.
Finally, it's okay not to love, please don't hurt.
Once again, I ask everyone to support genuine subscription, this is not an author's way to make money, but a helpless and sad cry.
1.3 million clicks, 200 subscriptions, the last sound I can make is hehe.
