Back to 80: My Literary Life

Fang Minghua nodded after hearing this.

Indeed, these six people are all veterans of Qidian. They have made great contributions to the development of the website, which is the VIP charging system for online articles they created. It is this system that makes Qidian stand out among many websites.

And the Phantom Sword finally declined.

Of course, he didn't express anything in front of Dai Jiali, he just said: "I understand."

Dai Jiali stayed for a while longer, then said goodbye and left, leaving behind the information about the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance.

Fang Minghua flipped through it and found that it was basically what Dai Jiali described, only more detailed.

After dinner, Fang Minghua took a shower and changed into clean clothes. He was about to lie down comfortably on the bed when he suddenly heard another knock on the door. He went to open the door and saw a tall and thin young man standing at the door.

It turned out to be Chen Wan.

"Heh, what's going on? Dai Jiali walks on the front foot, and you come on the back foot?" Fang Minghua said with a smile.

"Mr. Dai has been here too?" Chen Wan was slightly surprised.

"Yes, I just left not long ago. Come in." Fang Minghua greeted Chen Wan into the room and poured him a cup of tea.

Chen Wan took a sip of tea and said, "Teacher Fang, since Mr. Dai has been here, she must have also talked about the acquisition. I won't mince words. My suggestion is to acquire the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance."

"Reason?" Fang Minghua said, sitting casually on the sofa next to him.

"It's very simple. Now Huanjian Shumeng is the leader of fantasy online websites. If you want to acquire, you must acquire the best in the industry. This is common sense." Chen Wanyan said concisely and comprehensively.

"Of course there is also the Dragon's Sky website. In fact, he was the boss of the original fantasy website. However, the founders of the website, Lou Lanxue, Weid, and Liu Shui, suddenly became confused. Starting last year, they actually focused the website on offline publishing. Physical books resulted in the fantasy novel website losing its top spot to Fantasy Sword Book Alliance.”

Does Dragon's Sky still have this history?

What a pity.

If it develops well, Longkong will not be just a forum for Internet enthusiasts in future generations, struggling for survival.

After listening to Chen Wan's words, Fang Minghua said: "I heard from Dai Jiali that the top executives of the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance basically work part-time, and their division of labor and abilities are not as good as those at the starting point."

"What Dai Jiali said is also true." Chen Wan did not deny it:

"But I don't think this is a big problem. If we think those senior management are not good enough, we can kick them out after the acquisition and recruit new people. I can also resign as the chief operating officer of Rongshuxia.com, Focus on the business of the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance!"

Chen Wan said impassionedly.

That's right

In fact, for Fang Minghua, it doesn't matter whether it is the Phantom Sword or the starting point. It is still the barbaric period of Internet writing. Which website is not important, what is important is the people!

People who have innovative ideas and can grasp the pulse of the development of online literature!

Fang Minghua nodded and did not answer directly but suddenly asked: "I heard that Qidian.com is planning to implement a VIP charging mechanism. What do you think of this?"

After listening to this, Chen Wan pondered for a while and then said: "I don't think the VIP charging system is the best business model. I think free is the development trend of online writing. Now the Internet advocates that everything is free."

"Of course, free does not mean that there is no income. It means inserting advertisements into novel chapters, and the advertising income is divided, taking into account the website income and the author's income. Now almost all portals NetEase, Sohu, and Sina have adopted this model." Chen Wan quickly added.

That's right.

Including under the banyan tree is this free mechanism!

The free websites that emerged in later generations also adopted this model and starting point to compete.

But that was twenty years later.

After Chen Wan finished speaking, Fang Minghua did not express his position. He just said that he would think about it and wait until the company meeting tomorrow to discuss it.

Chen Wan left.

Fang Minghua didn't think much, he already had the answer in his heart.

After breakfast the next morning, Fang Minghua went downstairs and saw a black Audi parked in front of the hotel. Dai Jiali had already sent the license plate number to Fang Minghua's mobile phone. After checking the license plate number, he asked the driver to drive straight to the Shengshi Group headquarters. .

Across the Huangpu River, Lujiazui is more prosperous than in previous years. High-rise buildings are rising from the ground. The 19-story building of Shengshi Group Headquarters already looks a bit dwarfed.

Entering the lobby on the first floor, Dai Jiali and Chen Wan were already waiting in the lobby. When they saw Fang Minghua coming in, they immediately came up to greet them. They got into the elevator together. They were talking and laughing, but they couldn't tell that the conflict between them was irreconcilable.

When he arrived at the floor where Shengshi Online Literature Company was located, Fang Minghua didn't wander around and entered the conference room to start a meeting immediately.

A total of four people came. In addition to Dai Jiali and Chen Wan, there was also Lu Jinbo (Li Xunhuan), the company's vice president who concurrently serves as the website editor, and a vice president in charge of finance and logistics named Jiang Yongjun, who graduated from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics with an accounting major. He is also a fan of online writing.

There was no excessive pleasantries and the meeting went directly to Dai Jiali and Chen Wan, who each stated their opinions.

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

In fact, the two people's opinions were made very clear last night. Now Fang Minghua wanted to hear the thoughts of Lu Jinbo and Jiang Yongjun. Unexpectedly, they all supported Chen Wan's suggestion to acquire the Fantasy Sword Book Alliance!

No wonder Dai Jiali, a veteran, also feels helpless.

After the four of them finished their statements, they all looked at Fang Minghua with eager eyes.

Fang Minghua took a sip of tea and said calmly: "My opinion is the starting point for acquisition,"

"Second, I am very optimistic about the VIP charging mechanism they are going to create. It can be said to be the main business model of online literature in the future."

As soon as Fang Minghua finished speaking, Dai Jiali's face immediately became pleasantly surprised, while Chen Wan's eyes became dim.

"After acquiring Qidian, like Under the Banyan Tree, they will become two independent websites under Shengshi Online Literature, operating independently and not interfering with each other." Fang Minghua added.

"Okay, I will arrange someone to negotiate with Qidian about the specific acquisition matters immediately." Dai Jiali said immediately.

Chen Wan wanted to say something, but his mouth moved but he didn't say it.

Lu Jinbo was also silent, but Jiang Yongjun immediately expressed his support.

"Since it has been decided, let's do it well." Fang Minghua stood up after speaking.

After finishing the business, Fang Minghua left the headquarters building, and with Dai Jiali and others seeing him off, he went downstairs and got into the Audi car and returned to the hotel. The whole time took less than an hour.

Back at the hotel, Fang Minghua wanted to go to see the old villa he bought on Julu Road. Since he didn't have a car, he called Zhao Hongjun to arrange a car to come over for him to use for two days.

But before I made the call, I received a call from Dai Jiali.

The first thing Dai Jiali said after the call was: "Teacher Fang, Chen Wan and Lu Bo just submitted their resignations to me!"
