Rebirth, Starting from 2005

During this period of time, Yan Xin and Chen Li worked hard.

Of course, Chen Li was the hardest one.

Although he only publishes one chapter every day, he has to write three chapters every day.

This is not the time when the Ku Klux Klan is rampant, and basically a chapter is more than 3,000 words.

The three chapters are almost 10,000 words long.

This amount of code words is still very sufficient.

Every day during the day, the two of them discuss the next details. He doesn't pursue gorgeous writing now, so he doesn't have to worry about Cavin, and the writing is quite smooth.

But no matter how smooth the writing is, I can only go back to the dormitory to sleep at three or four in the morning.

Yan Xin also worked hard, but he didn't work so hard. He just wrote down some key words in his notebook when he had free time, and incorporated his good ideas into it.

Every day, Chen Li would look at the background data.

There are more and more collections, and soon broke through one hundred, and two days later, it broke through to three hundred.

There are also more and more recommendation votes and comments.

There are also a lot of scolding, some scolding him for writing novels that are superficial and meaningless, but most of them are scolding him for updating too slowly.

These comments also gave Chen Li confidence.

Now the novels have not been signed, have not been recommended, and do not have much exposure. It is already quite good to have such data.

It can't compare to the data brought by those big gods with their own traffic, but for a new account, it is absolutely excellent.

It was less than 30,000 words, and Chen Li was so excited when he received the short message from the signing station.

The last book he wrote on this website did not come to sign the contract until it reached 70,000 to 80,000 copies. At that time, he already felt that he was awesome.

Only now did I realize that it could have been even more awesome.

That day when he turned on the computer, logged in to his account, and received a short message from the signing site, he yelled excitedly, attracting all the attention around him.

"Low-key, this is just the beginning." Yan Xin said.

Although he was quite excited, he could control his emotions.

What's more, he is also a person who lived in his thirties in his previous life, so he is not so impulsive.

Chen Li's salary has been paid, and he has hundreds of dollars in his hand. When he got excited, he took out a ten-yuan bill and handed it to Yan Xin:

"Brother, use this to buy two bottles of cold beer, and use the rest of the money to buy some peanuts. Let's celebrate today!"

Well, both are poor people, and they can only celebrate on this scale.

Yan Xin didn't have enough money in his pocket, and he wasn't hypocritical, so he went out with the ten yuan, and came in after a while with two bottles of cold beer and a small bag of peanuts.

The two of them drank and ate peanuts while reading the comments. Within 20 minutes, they finished the wine and ate up the peanuts.

This little beer will not make them drunk.

After the celebration, according to the previous practice, review the draft written by Chen Li the day before, and revise what needs to be revised, and pass what does not need to be revised.

Chen Li wrote more and more smoothly, and there were fewer and fewer places that needed to be revised.

In other words, with Yan Xin's amateur level, he couldn't come up with more suggestions for revision.

But it’s okay if you can’t bring it up.

It's not that they want to produce any literary works with profound connotations, they just want to produce a popular online article.

Yan Xin's appreciation level of literary works is indeed not high, and he has never appreciated the so-called profound literary works, but he just likes to read cool articles.

And people who are on the same level as his appreciation level are the majority in this society.

If you can catch the hearts of this part of readers, you will be able to eat the bowl of online novels.

There is no need to deliberately get into the horns and screw yourself to death for the sake of so-called profundity.

Especially for those authors whose level is not very good, it is completely unnecessary to make yourself awkward and make others awkward.

Chen Li had the experience of signing a contract once, so he knew what process to follow.

Originally, I went to the Internet cafe after get off work. In order to complete the signing process, I went to the Internet cafe the next day during the day to discuss the signing with the website.

The process was a bit slow, and it took another day to receive the signed contract.

Then I found a printing shop to print out the contract and send it by EMS.

Printing and express delivery cost tens of dollars in total, which really made Chen Li feel a lot of pain.

The last time I wrote a novel, I also spent this money, but I didn't get the last penny of the manuscript fee.

This time, he will at least earn back the postage.

After sending out the contract, before changing the status of the contract, he said this at the end of the latest chapter.

The reason for saying this is to reassure readers—this book has been signed, and there will be no eunuchs, so everyone can enter the pit with confidence.

He also said that when the signing status of the book is changed, he will update two chapters a day.

It's not that he is reluctant to release the archived manuscripts, but that he still has to go to work, and it is better to rest when he is in middle work, and he has enough time to code.

But when you work on the night shift, you may not be able to spare so much time.

Occasionally a day or two is okay, but after a long time, the body will definitely not be able to handle it.

No matter what, you have to keep some saved manuscripts there, otherwise the update will be interrupted, and the problem will be serious.

He also told Yan Xin that the manuscript fee will come out after it is put on the shelf, and if he can get two to three thousand manuscript fees a month, he can consider full-time writing.

Yan Xin also agreed with him.

But now it basically takes about 300,000 words to be put on the shelves, so it will have to wait a month or two.

It was already three days after the website received the contract from him and changed his novel to a contract status.

At this time, they all changed shifts, from the middle shift to the morning shift.

On the day of the shift, neither of them went to the Internet cafe, and went to bed quickly after get off work.

I waited until I finished my morning shift the next day and changed my clothes after get off work, then went to the Internet cafe, published the novel, reviewed the content of the previous day, and then continued to save the manuscript.

The novel data is getting better and better, the collection is getting more and more, and the recommendation votes and comments are getting more and more.

After changing the signing status, two chapters a day will be updated.

Now Qidian has not developed the tipping function. Before it is put on the shelves, no matter how good the data is, there will be no benefit.

At that time, the data was not enough, and it was not even eligible to be sold on the shelves.

Many people can't persevere, and Chen Li didn't persevere at the beginning.

He can't see the hope of being on the shelves, and he has no conditions to use love to generate electricity all the time, so he can only give up.

However, this time the confidence is quite high, because the novel data is getting better and better.

At the beginning, there was no recommendation, but there was a list of new books, which was a better opportunity for exposure.

For many works, it is also the only exposure opportunity.

"Fights Break Sphere", which they collaborated with, ranks relatively high on the new book list, which also makes the data of this book get better and better.

At the beginning, there was no such data as the original work in the original time and space, because this account is a purely new account, and the time was still in 2005. At that time, there were not many people who could access the Internet. Among those who have the conditions to access the Internet, there are also those who like to read online novels. Not many, the readership of the website is not as large as the latter.

But the selling point of the novel is there, it can catch people, and with the same exposure, it can retain readers several times that of other novels, which makes their data better and better.

Although they didn't make any money, looking at the data, the two became more and more motivated.

They saw the hope of explosion.

It also saw the hope of changing their destiny.

They all chose to be security guards.

However, it's not that they like being security guards.

It's just that among the few poor choices they can make, security is the one that they don't hate the most.

Salty fish at work is also because they understand a truth that no matter how hard they work in this position, they will not be able to earn a bright future for them.

——At best, there is only a security squad leader, which means a salary of two hundred yuan more a month. Is there such a big temptation?

Now as long as they work hard, they have the opportunity to choose a better life, and of course they will choose to work hard.
