Chapter 169 Readers' Carnival (400
With curiousness, Zhang Chu clicked to read and found that this could allow readers to log in with various social media accounts, such as qq, WeChat, Weibo or email, so as to avoid trouble and save others from having to register an account if they want to read books.
Zhang Chu did not use the account he had submitted before, but chose to link to Weibo account. He just wanted to see how much it cost to read this book "Youth Pi".
"Dear readers, you need to pay RMB 5 to read the current novel. Your balance is insufficient. Please choose the recharge method..."
In the window pop-up, the variety of recharge methods look very flexible. Zhang Chu did not want to make sales, but he tentatively clicked on the other works to see if they were all at the same price.
Reading the whole book for five yuan is actually not expensive. If you download an e-book, it usually costs about ten yuan, unless you are discounted.
After clicking along the way to check the price, Zhang Chu suddenly discovered a familiar name. Tang Wanli's "Dongfeng" actually passed the primary election. It seems that although this guy has a little bad temper and a little brainless, he is still a little skillful. Otherwise, he would not have been able to become the vice president of the largest literary club of Yanda University.
However, this person has become a symbol of the past, and Zhang Chu did not pay much attention to it. The miser is reluctant to spend five dollars to read.
"It should be a unified price. The novels are all five yuan, and the novels are two yuan, which is simply a bargain!"
When Zhang Chu took a walk around and returned to the pages of his "Youth Pi", he blinked in disbelief.
After only a few minutes, how did the number of clicks go from more than 500 to more than 1,400???
A huge black question mark appeared on his head.
Where did these people come from? Why did they get out of the way? Could it be that Menglong Culture Company is helping it operate?
...
Ji Han witnessed a "tragic" food chain war yesterday. After he shared Zhang Chu's pink dolphin in his circle of friends, he suddenly found that a little bitch had hit and reposted the shark.
Two Zhang Chu's fans recognized each other in their circle of friends...
"The Journey to the West Diary is no longer updated, and the physical book will be released on October 1st. Can't Zhang Chu release it now!"
Ji Han admitted that he was not a good student. Everyone was listening carefully to the professor's bragging during class, so he secretly took out his mobile phone to play.
He suddenly found that there was an application reminder in Zhang Chu's Weibo, "I am using Xinlangwei.com to log in to China Writers Network, the official website of the China Writers Association, the latest, fastest, most complete manuscripts for writers, come and have a look! [Web link]"
This is actually something that Wei Bo made, probably shared by Zhang Chu accidentally.
Ji Han suddenly became interested, and he was almost hypnotized by the professor and suddenly fell asleep without a trace!
It is estimated that nearly two million fans on Zhang Chuwei.com have similar ideas, and they all become Sherlock Holmes one by one.
China Writers Network???
The official website of the Writers Association?
Is this the rhythm of joining the Writers Association?
Ji Han felt it was time. Zhang Chu had already written two bestsellers. Are you not qualified to join?
Anyway, it was a bit boring, so he followed the online link behind the Weibo blog to see what the website actually has.
As soon as he entered the homepage of the website, Ji Han discovered the news that the results of the "Good Chinese Literature" essay competition were announced!
"Yes, didn't Zhang Chu participate in this essay contest? Let's see what he wrote."
Ji Han's goal is clear. He did not stop at the other genres and went straight to the novel.
"I'll just pick it! There are too few clicks, why are you so pitiful!"
At this time, the clicks of "Youth Pi" have reached 4103, but compared with the online novels that Ji Han usually reads, there is no even a fraction of the clicks.
The other few works are even fewer than Zhang Chu, and the most is less than one hundred.
"People's Fantasy Drifting" sounds like a children's book."
Five dollars is not expensive for Ji Han. He spends one or two hundred yuan every month on online novel subscriptions.
Since it's all spent money, why not watch it?
Even though this Indian boy is a little less immersive, Ji Han can even read online novels such as the snake and the Zerg, and soon immersed in it.
Similar to Ji Han's situation, Zhang Chu's passive microblog was quickly solved by netizens.
"Zhang Chuda's new work "Pi's Fantasy Drift" is being displayed on the China Writers' Network. You can see a novel for only five yuan. Go and support it!"
"The Young Pi is now leading the way, with countless times clicks exceeding the second place. It's so amazing!"
"It's not the same level at all, it's a pity!"
"new book???"
"I'm still waiting for "Journey to the West Diary", why did the book "Youth Pi" suddenly come out?"
"Don't worry, go and have a look."
"Congratulations to Zhang Chu for passing the primary election, and the new book is very popular!"
This is definitely an unexpected surprise for readers who like his works. Who would have thought that such a complete novel would suddenly appear?
It is not an exaggeration to say it is a Christmas dinner!
Originally, Zhang Chu's fans were mainly young people, and they only triggered a trend on Weibo yesterday, but now they still have the power.
Fans are very active, and no one expected that Zhang Chu would have more fans than readers on the entire Writers Network, which is as popular as many young and popular actors.
...
Within Menglong Culture Media Company, Zhou Kang has been paying attention to the sales of Zhang Chu's work.
The previous "Detective Sherlock", "Psychological Crime" and "Journey to the West" were all published agreements signed with Nanhai Publishing Company, and the prices were also newcomers, with royalties only 5%!
Now Zhang Chu is no longer a newcomer, and this "Youth Pi" is said to have a good reputation and hopes of winning an award.
In this case, he hopes to use the new book as a bargaining chip for negotiations and discuss it with Nanhai Publishing Company to increase the royalty ratio.
For the time being, there is no expectation to be 15%, just 8% or 10%!
The higher the clicks and higher the ratings of "Boyant Pi" now, the more beneficial it will be for their negotiations.
Now on the public announcement page of China Writers Network, "Youth Pi" is a paid work, with a higher number of clicks than those free poems and short stories!
In less than five hours, the cumulative number of paid clicks has already rushed towards 8,000 people, which means that Zhang Chu has already earned almost 40,000 yuan.
"Brother Zhou, Zhang Chu's new book seems to have won a popularity award, right?"
A young man at the desk next to him said with a smile, "Congratulations, you can sign a new writer with great potential like Zhang Chu. Your bonus this quarter is probably enough to buy a new car."
Chapter completed!
