Dormitory 401.
Lao Zheng, who had just been quietly reading a book with his mobile phone in hand, suddenly slapped his thigh as if he was crazy, raised his head and yelled happily.
"Damn it, it feels so good!"
Liang Ziyuan, who was lying on the table in a daze like a dead dog, raised his eyelids and glanced at this guy.
"What's wrong with you?"
Normally at this time, he would have already started practicing the piano.
But now, his soul has been drained by military training, and he almost has no strength to speak...
However, Lao Zheng, who was sitting there, seemed to have been given a shot of blood. Not only did he still have the strength to speak, his voice was not as loud as usual.
"Hey, it's nothing. I'm just excited and want to read the next volume quickly. Damn, this stupid author is too slow to update, and his writing skills are in vain!"
Liang Ziyuan glanced at him speechlessly and looked away without interest. He didn't really like reading novels, no matter how good they were, he wasn't interested.
Hearing Lao Zheng's shouting, Zhou Xuan, who came to visit from the bedroom next door, happened to be chasing the book, so he interrupted.
"The next volume? It has already been updated. But I still like to save a few more chapters and read them together. Reading chapter by chapter is too boring."
"Did you get dizzy from the heat during military training?" Hearing Zhou Xuan's words, Lao Zheng, who follows up on time every day, couldn't help complaining, "The latest chapter is obviously the 41st chapter, the end of the battle in Ciyun Temple , and at the end there is an introduction to the next volume of Li Yingqiong's Taoism. This second volume has just been named, and it doesn't even contain a chapter, so why has it already been updated?"
"Tch, you still don't believe me after I told you more, so you insist on throwing the evidence in your face." Seeing Zheng Xueqian looking at him with disbelief, Zhou Xuan didn't want to argue, so he took out his phone impatiently and said Arriving in front of him, "Look, what is this if not the 42nd episode?"
Of course it was impossible for Zheng Xueqian to believe it.
However, when he took the phone and looked at the screen, his eyes suddenly widened.
Damn it? !
Is this really Chapter 42
But this...
How can it be? !
But soon, Zheng Xueqian noticed that the interface of this chapter was a little different from what he had seen before, so he immediately switched to the homepage of the work.
"Sea Lion Reading... What the hell?! Isn't this book serialized on Xiake.com? Why did you go to Sea Lion Reading?"
Could it be a copycat
Zheng Xueqian subconsciously glanced at the pen name and confirmed that it was the owner of Huanzhu. He became even more confused and muttered something in his mouth.
"... What a hell, a book from Xiake.com actually appeared on Sea Lion Reading?!"
A few years ago, books from Xiake.com could be seen on Sea Lion Reading. It wasn’t until Sea Lion Reading focused on the category of martial arts novels that the two parties’ positions changed from collaborators to competitors.
"I don't know, maybe it's double-edited." Seeing that this guy had never seen the world, Zhou Xuan said with an indifferent expression, "Just read the book, and you don't care where it was published?"
He is not the same as Lao Zheng. He just reads books and does not care about the ecology of online literature and martial arts novels, let alone any loyalty to the website.
He had indeed been chasing this book on Xiake.com before, but today he happened to be bored and opened Sea Lion to read. He found that this book was also available here, and the first volume was even finished, so he took this opportunity to buy it.
As for the unspoken rules of this industry, he didn't really understand them.
"You don't understand," Old Zheng, who came back to his senses, shook his head and sighed, "Novel is different from music. A work can only be published to one book site. The result of publishing it on both sides is that both parties will be offended. It won’t end well!”
"...offended? Not that bad, right?"
After hearing what Xiaobai said, Zheng Xueqian glanced at Zhou Xuan with a sense of superiority.
"No? Haha, it's because you haven't read enough books! For fifteen-year-old bookworms like us, we have seen too many talented newcomers who were suppressed just because they became wallflowers. I can’t even sign the contract!”
"But I'm pretty good at reading this book, right? At least more and more people are reading it now."
"What's the point of doing well? If you're doing well, you still haven't signed a contract yet? If you're doing well, why can't you even get a recommendation? Just a picture!"
"recommend?"
After hearing these words, Zhou Xuan, who was originally doubtful about Lao Zheng's talk about running a train, had an even weirder expression on his face.
He took back his mobile phone, switched from the book page to the homepage of Sea Lion Reading, and then handed it to Lao Zheng again, "The recommendation you mentioned...does this count?"
I saw that the big banner on the home page was the "Swordsman of Shushan" written by Huanzhu Louzhu!
Staring at the screen of his mobile phone, Zheng Xueqian was stunned. It took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"No... this... this is unscientific?! Why are there recommendations if you haven't signed a contract?"
Zhou Xuan shrugged.
"The devil knows."
…
At the same time, in a villa area more than ten kilometers away.
A little girl in school uniform was excitedly throwing her mobile phone on the pillow, pressing the thick pillow and punching her fists, and while she was hammering, she was swearing in an imageless manner.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck! This, this looks too good for your father!"
On the chair next to her were hanging pajamas that she hadn't even had time to change into yet. The evil rabbit with its teeth and claws showing off its evil smile looked like a dancing figure.
On the way back from school, Lin Jiaojiao happened to read this novel while sitting in the car.
Originally she just planned to kill the boring time, but she couldn't take her eyes away after looking at it. By the time she came to her senses, it was already this time.
Although she didn't change a word of her homework, she didn't regret it at all.
Because the description of the fight is so cool!
Originally, she had only read Gu Yan, but this was the first time she saw such a novel martial arts.
Can not be done!
Such a beautiful novel must be rewarded!
When the author is blinded by money and bows to his princess dress, how many updates will he want to watch
In the face of money's ability, no one will refuse their request.
No matter how willful it is!
Without saying a word, Lin Jiaojiao picked up the phone and poked the gold button with her trembling thumb.
However, what she didn't expect was that the site-wide announcement that floated across the screen did not appear, but was replaced by a [Payment Failed] pop-up window.
Damn it
Lin Jiaojiao was dumbfounded.
This was the first time that she thought she couldn't earn money for it!
“…You can’t reward your works without signing a contract, what the hell?!”
What is a contract
Lin Jiaojiao didn't understand it very well, and she didn't want to care about these troublesome things at all.
At this moment, she was only annoyed about one thing, and that was that someone actually rejected her money-making ability!
"I'm so angry, I'm so angry!"
He punched the pillow again to vent his anger, but this time it was very unlucky, and he accidentally hit Miss.
There was a muffled sound on the head of the bed, and Lin Jiaojiao instantly shrank into a ball with her fists covered, and she almost shed tears of pain.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...It hurts your dad so much."
Even though it hurts like hell, I still don't forget my bad breath.
Holding back the tears hanging in the corners of her eyes, she gritted her teeth and opened the live broadcast area of Station B, clicked into the live broadcast room she often went to, and threw ten small TVs at it with her backhand.
Immediately following was a barrage.
[Shabi Anchor, I am your father!]
Zhang Xiang, who was dumbfounded by the scolding and was playing a game, was completely stunned and even forgot to thank him for the gift. The audience in the live broadcast room also exploded instantly, and the screen was filled with barrage.
[Hahaha, Dad Ning is here again!]
[Let’s eat, let’s eat!]
[husband! ! ! Husband, look at me! ! !]
[Brother Ning, can I be Ning’s third wife?]
[Brother Ning! Can gender not be too stuck? If it really doesn’t work, I’d rather be Ning’s son!]
This group of troll netizens!
So stupid!
However, seeing the host's expression as she finished her meal, Lin Jiaojiao felt a little more comfortable. Her fists didn't seem to hurt so much anymore, and her typing fingers became more agile.
[Don’t call me brother, call me daddy!]
[Also, trash anchor, please change the name of the live broadcast room for your father!]
Seeing the barrage of the wealthy father, Zhang Xiang was shocked and immediately came back to his senses. As if the person he just scolded was not him, he laughed like a dog-licker.
"Okay, Dad Ning! What do you want me to change it to?"
[let me see…]
Seeing this barrage, Zhang Xiang's heart was in his throat.
As for the water friends in the live broadcast room, they followed up and came up with bad ideas as always, and one after another came up with names that made him break into a cold sweat despite having experienced many battles.
but…
This time, their father was different from usual. It was as if he had suddenly changed his temper. He rarely made fun of Brother Xiang.
[Just...change it to ""The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is so beautiful"!]
[Well, that’s it, change it for me quickly!]
Zhang Xiang: "???"
Zhang Xiang was not the only one who looked confused.
The viewers in the live broadcast room were also confused.
[What is the Legend of Shushan Swordsman?]
[Surprised, Brother Ning must have had his account hacked.]
[First time heard of this?]
[Dad Ning still reads novels? I’m also a writer, look at me! !]
[Ah, it’s that book! I came across it on the home page of Haishi Reading today and read two chapters, which are pretty awesome.]
[Yeah! I also saw it on the homepage! The writing is really awesome!]
Just awesome
Lin Jiaojiao typed dissatisfiedly and was about to send it out.
However, at this moment, the nanny's voice came from outside the room.
"Jiaojiao, you're going to get cold if you don't eat."
"Ouch! I'll do it right away."
Although she was extremely reluctant, she didn't want to be lectured by her elder sister or father later.
Throwing her phone on the bed, Lin Jiaojiao quickly threw away her school uniform and put on her pajamas, then ran outside with her slippers on.
As for a certain Brother Xiang’s live broadcast room...
At this moment, it has completely turned into a book club for "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", and even more so after changing the name of the live broadcast room. The screen is full of people discussing the plot, and no one cares about the device of sitting in front of the camera and playing games.
However, this is a good thing for Zhang Xiang
Anyway, he was quite happy.
After all, the people who came to watch his live broadcast were all black fans.
No matter what these people talk about.
After all, it’s better than scolding yourself…
