Chapter 1357 – Online novel website should be like this

“Manager Sun, who is this?”

Chen Daqiao knows Sun Lijie is coming to train Qidian’s editors and is disdainful.

This industry is new, and its website is one of the pioneers. They can be considered the most experienced in the field. Where did Sun Lijie find this guy to advise them? Even those editors from established publishers don’t dare to do it.

But Chen Daqiao still waited for them as he wants to see who will train Qidian’s editors.

“Mr. Chen, this is Mr. Feng Yu.”

Feng Yu has too many titles and doesn’t need any introductions. Everyone knows who he is.

“Feng… Mr. Feng Yu?! The Chairman of Tai Hua Holdings, and the World’s Richest Man, Mr. Feng Yu?!” Chen Daqiao had never expected to meet Feng Yu. He is a legend among the Chinese.

“It’s me. What’s wrong? Are you not going to invite me in?” Feng Yu asked with a smile.

“Ah! Please come in! Xiao Zhao! Prepare the tea!”

Chen Daqiao’s office is not big, as his company is very new and needs to save money. But it is nicely renovated.

“Mr. Chen, Manager Feng will be training Qidian’s editors today.”

What!? It’s him?!

Chen Daqiao never imagines the expert Sun Lijie mentioned is Feng Yu. But even if it’s Feng Yu, he should not be qualified as a trainer in this industry. He is not in this line after all!

Feng Yu saw Chen Daqiao’s expression and smiles. “I am one of the first paid subscribers of Qidian, and my ID ‘No. 6 of Central Plains’ is quite famous.”

“No. 6 of Central Plains”?! The famous reviewer respected by authors and readers?!

Qidian’s staff had suggested to Chen Daqiao to invite “No. 6 of Central Plains”. This person has great foresight and splendid views. With his help, Qidian will progress quickly and become the best in the industry.

They are disappointed when “No. 6 of Central Plains” rejected them. They are unable to offer a high salary and only can try to entice him with prospects. But it did not work. Qidian’s editors felt this person should be wealthy as the first batch of paid subscribers is all rich!

But no one had expected “No. 6 of Central Plains” to be the World’s Richest Man!

No one in this world is wealthier than him. Their offer, which might be considered good to them, is only a joke to Feng Yu.

Chen Daqiao quickly calls those people from Qidian to come over immediately.

……

“All of you can be considered the leaders in this industry. You all are one of the pioneers, and many of you had started your career as an online writer. That’s why you all can understand the hardship of being an online novel writer. The benefit of this occupation is the low barrier of entry. Anyone with a PC and who knows how to type can become an online novel writer. But they are not part the industry yet.”

“Only when there is the income can they be considered to have joined this industry, and they can call themselves writers after their works are published. Writers can only earn from publishing their works in the past. They are being paid much lesser than traditional literary works. But everything will change with VIP paid subscribers’ model.”

“My question to you all is, ‘what is our core?’”

Someone replied. “Writers. Those famous and good writers.”

“That’s right. We are similar to an entertainment artist management company. The writers are equivalent to artists. If an artist management company doesn’t have artists, how are they going to survive? An artist management company with lots of artists will make the most profits even if they are charging the lowest commission!”

“Manager Feng, you are saying that we should poach those good online writers to our website?” Someone asked.

“We don’t need to poach. We can make them join us.”

Make them join us?! Everyone is confused. How are they going to attract those writers? Their website is still not No. 1 in their industry.

“Look, we are the first website to introduce VIP paid subscribers’ model, and it will increase the writers’ income. Previously, they had published their works online without getting paid. We are also working with some publishers.”

“Ah?! Manager Feng, it’s hard for online novels to get published in Simplified Chinese. Some publishers had approached us, but the publishing rights are too low, and the writers are not satisfied.”

“We have new partners now. For example, Wind and Rain Publishing. The publisher who publish <Wind and Rain Business Magazine>.”

Tai Hua Holdings have its own publishing company, and why can’t they publish these online novels? Although the sales might be low, they should not make any losses if they planned well. At least, the rental bookstores will buy it.

The writers will get famous slowly, and after they have established a fan base, the sales will rise.

“Wind and Rain Publishing will publish our books in Simplified Chinese? That’s terrific. This way, our influence will increase and will attract more writers and readers.” Someone exclaimed excitedly.

“We lack in marketing now, and we can use those forums, Tieba, etc., to promote us and let those writers know our benefits are better. At the same time, readers will know we have more and better writers, more titles, and our pages are cleaner without advertisements or trojan links.”

“No advertisements? If there are no advertisements, how are we going to make money?” Someone asked.

“I am saying that we will minimize our advertisements and not removing all of them. However, the advertisements must not affect the readings. We provide a platform for the writers, promote their works, and helping them charge their readers. We should commission for it, right? We are equivalent to artists’ managers and shouldn’t be working for free. I heard that the website is not getting a share from your VIP model.”

“We had just launched this system and did not have many subscribers. If we still get a share, the writers’ income will drop significantly.” Someone explained.

“This is fine for the initial phase, but not in the future, as the website’s maintenance cost is not low. Also, we need to filter the recommendations and include a feature to rate the novels. This will let readers know which are the more popular novels.”

“What should we do if people buy votes to give a good novel rating?”

“The votes need to be purchased or given to readers who had paid a certain amount. If anyone is going to buy votes, the writers will also get a share. Just let them be.”

“Also, you all can use our Alipay as a payment system. This is more convenient than other online banking transactions. We can also work with QQ to increase our marketing efforts to get more readers!”
