Wang Ze's calculations were loud, but he forgot one thing.
That is the owner of Huanzhu Tower - Hao Yun. Not only is he a pure newcomer, he is also 100% new.
What does a 100% new person mean
That is, they don’t understand the rules in the Internet literary circle at all. They have never even heard of the idea that a manuscript cannot be submitted twice, and they completely regard Xiake.com as the music version of Yinke.com.
It is better to expect such a cute newcomer to play according to the routine than to expect the novel to be automatically updated and uploaded...
"What the hell? What's going on?"
As usual, he opened the writer's backend of Xiake.com, and just when Hao Yun was about to upload the manuscript he had just finished, he found that his work had been locked.
Looking at the computer screen in confusion, Hao Yun then opened the bookshelf of the reader account and took a look. He found that the novel page had changed to 404, and he could not click on it.
Network failure
What the hell are you doing!
He opened the home page and randomly found a book and clicked in. It was normal. Hao Yun quickly realized that he was the only one with the problem, so he immediately took out his mobile phone and contacted his editor Liu Ye.
[Brother Liuye, why can’t my book be updated? ? ?]
After waiting for about ten seconds, the other party finally responded with a message.
Although, there are only six points of unknown significance...
[…]
Hao Yun: "???"
What does the ellipsis mean
Confused by the ellipsis, Hao Yun, who was anxious for an update, quickly sent a question mark, but the reply he received was still six points.
The owner of Huanzhu: [?]
Willow Leaf: […]
The owner of Huanzhu: [?]
Willow Leaf: […]
Hao Yun: "???"
What the hell? !
Are you playing a riddle with yourself
In fact, Liu Ye was more speechless than Hao Yun at this moment.
Time goes back to an hour ago.
Not long after his immediate boss, Chief Editor Wang, came out of Chief Editor Yan’s office, he immediately called him into his office and gave him a scolding—
"What's going on with the Legend of Shushan Swordsman? Didn't I ask you to sign it? Why haven't you signed it yet?"
When Liu Ye heard these words in the office, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Damn it
Why did you ask me to sign it
Didn't I ask you to sign a contract? After reading it, you said that the quality is generally not enough to sign a contract, and if you sign it, you won't recommend it
Of course, this guy was the editor-in-chief after all, and it was hard for Liu Ye to talk back to him, so he just kept silent.
Perhaps because he knew he was in the wrong, Wang Ze saw that Liu Ye didn't fart for a long time. After snorting coldly, he didn't continue to settle old scores and continued in a bad tone.
"Give me the WeChat account of the owner of Huanzhu Tower."
"good… "
Liu Ye took out his mobile phone in front of him and pushed WeChat to Wang Ze.
He did not immediately add the friend of the owner of Huanzhu Tower. Looking at Liu Ye who was obedient and obeyed, Editor Wang continued.
"From today on, you can leave this matter alone. From now on, I will personally discuss the signing with the owner of the Huanzhu Tower."
"Okay, I have no objection."
Seeing this guy taking the initiative to take over this troublesome matter, Liu Ye certainly didn't have any objections. After all, his own thoughts were quite complicated.
Out of loyalty to this job, he certainly hopes that the owner of Huanzhu Tower will come back. After all, this book has now entered the editor's sight, and the situation is completely different from before.
But for him, he was the one who introduced people to Sea Lion Reading in the first place, and now he eats back what he said at the beginning, and he is still a bit embarrassed about his face.
It is naturally best for the editor-in-chief to take over.
Not only does it appear to be taken seriously, but it also avoids embarrassment.
To be honest, he is still surprised that "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", whose writing style is considered hard-core even according to the standards of Xiake.com, can actually become popular among sea lion readers who are relatively young.
Is it because of his rich imagination
This is incredible...
…
After playing riddles with Liu Ye for a long time, he still didn't understand what this guy wanted to express. Hao Yun became impatient for a while and simply threw his phone aside, not bothering to ask why the book was gone.
Oh shit!
I tell you stories for free, why should I be so angry with you
No more updates!
Although it is quite boring to stay in the computer room and not be able to do anything, but no matter how boring we are, we can't be licking dogs, right
Just when Hao Yun had completely given up on Xiake.com, readers who couldn't wait for the update were in a panic.
Many people finally waited for twenty-four hours and eagerly opened their bookshelves to read the latest chapter. However, instead of waiting for the update, they waited for a work to be released out of contact
Good guy, why do you get 404 just by looking at it
Is there anything wrong with the writing? !
Soon, book friends who had lost their organization began to scurry around in the book review sections of other books, asking people everywhere what was going on with "Shushan".
In the book review section of "The Sword Shocks Chang'an", which ranked first on the best-selling list, all the "Shu friends" who had nowhere to go gathered here.
[Where is the Legend of Shushan Swordsman? Why is it gone?]
[Yes, yes, I was watching it well, but suddenly I can’t see it anymore! ?]
[I came from Brother Xiang’s live broadcast room. I just added the book to the bookshelf yesterday. Why is it gone?]
[What I show here is that the work has been blocked!]
[Gan! The dog author must have escaped from the eunuch!]
[You are looking at the wrong place. I have already read the latest chapter at Sea Lion Reading! I don’t know why you can’t see it here. Maybe it was removed from the website!]
[real? ? ?]
There are more and more posts, which has affected the normal operation of the book review area.
The administrator of the book review area reported this to the author, who then reported it to the editor. The administrator of Xiake.com finally took action, and the first move was a big move. He directly set "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" as a block word, and in the book review The area typed out is a string of asterisks.
However, this obviously treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.
What age are we in now? Who doesn’t have a WeChat group account
Moreover, after doing this, the entire book review area was full of chaos, with asterisks everywhere. People who were originally uninterested also started to join in the fun. They were curious about what kind of plot this book was about. Even the title of the book was a sensitive word
As for those "Shu friends", they were completely angered.
The sound of condemnation even reached the circle of friends and scarves.
[They haven’t signed a contract, so why aren’t they allowed to be updated? !]
[Hey, so disappointed!]
[I hope the owner of Huanzhu Tower will not come back. We will go wherever you go.]
Looking at the comments on the Internet, cold sweat broke out on Wang Ze's forehead.
Why is the development of this matter a little different from the script he imagined
Originally, according to his plan, he would hang out with the Huanzhu poster for a day, and then when he panicked, he would add him on WeChat and tell him how bad this behavior of submitting a draft twice was, and that he would have to discuss it on Xiake.com and with Xiake. All channels with which the Internet has cooperative relationships have banned his pen name.
By that time, every author must be scared to death.
Then he revealed his identity as the editor-in-chief and said that as long as he was willing to sign a contract and delete the works published on Haishi Reading, he could get a chance for leniency.
At that time, at most they can promise a little favor in terms of recommended resources, and this young man will be able to get back on his way without any effort.
However-
The plan seemed to go awry from the start.
He didn't expect that a work written by a newcomer could actually accumulate such influence.
What he didn't expect was that Shushan's book friends would react so loudly. Not only did they comment on other book review sections, but they also went to third-party platforms that he had no control over to set the pace.
This is a good move. You will injure the enemy a hundred and injure yourself a thousand!
"Editor Wang... what should we do now?"
Looking at his subordinates who were asking him questions anxiously, Wang Ze gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"I can't wait any longer. I'll contact the owner of the Pearl Repayment Tower immediately."
The editor standing aside swallowed.
"The shielding thing..."
Wang Ze clenched his fists and said with a gloomy expression.
"There is no rush to unblock it yet."
"Wait until I add him!"
