"What the hell?! This guy is crazy!"
Seeing the reward banners floating across the site, Sun Wen, who was sitting in front of the computer, was stunned.
He was the one who reported the first and second drafts of "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" to Xiake.com. Later, he also reported it to Haishi Reading, but the editor ignored him.
He thought that although the editor of the martial arts category did not reply to his message, he must have silently blacklisted the book. But he didn't expect that in just a few days, this young man would actually sign the contract? !
Looking at the dazzling golden alliance, Sun Wen felt jealous and mad, but she had no choice but to curse in a toothless voice.
"It's true that people are stupid and have too much money."
It wasn't just Sun Wen who felt bad, but also Wang Ze, the editor-in-chief of Xiake.com.
The previous wave of rhythm was entirely caused by him blocking Shushan. Now Shushan has completely signed a contract with Sea Lion Reading and has taken away a large number of readers. Even if he finds a scapegoat to shoulder the blame, it cannot change his work. The fact that there was a mistake.
Especially now that "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is getting more and more popular, Editor Yan looks at him more and more wrong every time during a meeting.
If this continues, I'm afraid he will have to follow in the footsteps of the Liu Ye brothers soon.
Wang Ze felt nervous when he thought about the unpaid mortgage.
no!
I have to think of a way to cool down this book...
At this moment, he suddenly thought of an old friend.
The name of this old friend is Lu Donghui. He used to work in a newspaper. Later, after he made a lot of money by writing several popular articles, he quit his job and opened a self-media company for operations. Especially his account called Hui Ge Pingshu, which already has 5 million fans on the bib, and can be regarded as a relatively powerful big V.
If it were him, maybe there would be a way...
Thinking of this, Wang Ze did not hesitate and immediately called his old friend.
"Hey, Lao Lu? What are you busy with?"
"What's wrong with your busy work? Editor Wang, are you free to chat with me today?"
Wang Ze smiled sheepishly, coughed slightly and said.
"It's not that I'm nagging... To be honest, I'm a little busy and I have to trouble you."
"Oh?" Lao Lu continued with interest, "What are you busy with? Let me tell you."
Wang Ze: "Isn't there a book called "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" recently? The one Haishi read... you must have heard of it, right?"
"Shu Mountain..." Touching the stubble on his chin, Lu Donghui leaned on the chair and pondered for a while, then suddenly shook his head and said, "Sorry, I'm afraid I can't help with this."
Hearing these words, Wang Ze was stunned for a moment and suddenly became anxious.
"You didn't even hear me finish, why can't you help me?"
"You don't need to tell me, I already know what you want to ask me to do," Lu Donghui sighed and said helplessly, "To be honest, I just received the job from the operations department of Sea Lion Reading two days ago. To promote this book... do you think your offer might be higher than theirs?"
This is actually a very polite refusal.
In fact, even if Wang Ze could afford a higher price, Lu Donghui would not dare to take the job.
It is obvious that Sea Lion Reading intends to make this book a pillar of the martial arts category. How can a small self-media company dare to go against a communications giant like Sea Lion Group
He still hopes to rely on others to make ends meet...
Wang Ze's face turned slightly pale.
"Then... there is nothing we can do?"
"It's not like there's nothing we can do."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ze said immediately as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"how do I say this!"
Lu Donghui: "The style of writing in Shushan Swordsman is weird, and there are a lot of ideas in the writing. To put it in a derogatory sense, it is deviant. In fact, many authors of traditional martial arts novels do not like this kind of writing, and many of them are in the literary world. Influential people... you know what I mean, right?"
A hint of surprise gradually appeared in Wang Ze's eyes.
"You mean...let me use the power of the literary world?"
"You have to figure this out for yourself. Timing is very important, and the choice of person is even more important." Lu Donghui stopped talking and smiled, "I just said it casually. Don't take it seriously."
Wang Ze was overjoyed and quickly thanked him: "Brother! Thank you so much! I will definitely treat you to dinner another day!"
"You're welcome!" Lu Donghui smiled and didn't care.

Xiake.com and Haishi Reading are fighting over a book, and they also involve big names in the literary world. Just thinking about it is exciting enough.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Donghui picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
Another popular article has been booked in advance, and he has already thought of the title...
…
At the same time, dormitory 401.
Lao Zheng, who was holding the mobile phone, couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, it's so embarrassing!"
The same goes for Zhou Xuan, who was standing next to him. Looking at the red 10 million book coins as a reward, his eyes widened.
"Are people crazy now... 10 million book coins, damn! That's 100,000 yuan! How could someone reward so much?"
"What's this..." Glancing at Zhou Xuan, who was unfamiliar with it, Lao Zheng said with a very understanding look on his face, "Although Xiake.com is the largest martial arts website, in terms of the number of rich readers, it must still rely on WeChat. Sea Lion reads a lot. Even though the reward of 100,000 seems like a lot, do you believe that tomorrow this book won’t even top the daily sales list?”
Zhou Xuan was stunned, with a look of disbelief.
"Is the daily sales list of Sea Lion Reading so scary?"
"Then what else? Do you think those great people who earn a hundred thousand a day or a million a month are the ones boasted by the Sea Lion Group? And let me tell you, with the current popularity of this book, although a Golden Alliance cannot be on the daily sales list At the top of the list, but it will be on the shelves next month at most, and it will still be firmly on the top of the best-selling list even without a reward.”
Zhou Xuan was completely dumbfounded when he heard that writing novels was so profitable.
Hao Yun, who was listening silently, finally couldn't help but interject.
"So strong?"
"That's a must! Just look at how many people go to Sea Lion to read this book specifically!"
Finally coming back to his senses, Zhou Xuan muttered something in a sleepwalking voice.
"Topping the daily sales list... How much money does one have to make in a month?"
Old Zheng chuckled and said it as if he had written it himself: "According to the market prices I lurked in major book club groups, if you stay at the top of the best-selling list for a long time, you can still get one million a month!"
one million…
That’s 10 to 20 million a year, right? !
Zhou Xuan swallowed.
If it hadn't been for the high score he scored on the college entrance examination essay, he would have given up being a host and switched to writing novels.
As for Hao Yun, he was only slightly surprised and had no further reaction.
One million a month is indeed a good income, but it is still a little inferior to games, and it is too tiring to update on time every day.
Thanks to the system, the entire book was crammed into his mind, saving him time to conceive of the plot. However, all this exhausted him to death. It was really hard to imagine what kind of monsters those people who relied on their strength to make tens of thousands of dollars a day were...
"Old Zheng still knows better."
Hearing Hao Yun's compliment, Zheng Xueqian chuckled and rubbed his nose proudly.
"That's necessary. You don't think I'm a bookworm anymore."
Zhou Xuan reminded him from the side: "Twenty years!"
"Yes, yes... no, twenty years, it's obviously ten years!" Old Zheng, who almost fell into the pit, reacted in time and turned around to glare at Zhou Xuan, "Twenty years ago, your father wasn't born yet. , read Mao’s book.”
Ignoring Lao Zheng, Zhou Xuan looked at the phone screen and couldn't help but let out another sigh.
"Hey, there is really no comparison between people. This guy bounced back and forth between Sea Lion Reading and Xiake.com without any problem. In the end, he not only got a contract but was also arranged to be in the Golden Alliance."
"Yeah, that's nothing. What's even more awesome about this guy is that the reward of 10 million book coins is just one update, and the book review section is almost exploding, so he doesn't care."
Listening to Zhou Xuan and Lao Zheng sighing there, Hao Yun felt embarrassed for a while.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems a bit unjustifiable that someone rewarded me with so much money just to read the next chapter quickly, but I only added one update.
After some tangle, Hao Yun climbed into bed and lay down. Finally, he turned on his mobile phone and logged into the writer's backend, edited a chapter of "Author's Remarks" and sent it out.
[Thanks for the reward, it broke out today!]
This is probably the shortest explosive declaration.
After posting this chapter, Hao Yun then switched to the draft box and posted all the remaining ten chapters of the second volume "Li Yingqiong Learns Taoism".
Before waiting for a reaction from the book review section, Lao Zheng under the bed let out a shrill scream, and Lao Zhou standing next to him also screamed, as if he had seen God.
No need to guess, the two of them must have seen the dozen or so chapters updated.
Hao Yun smiled, remained silent, threw the phone next to the pillow, turned over and fell asleep.
But unlike him, many people are bound to be unable to sleep tonight...
