Reborn since 2005

Chapter 140 It seems to be really popular

In April, the new subscriptions of "Fights Break the Sphere" further declined. The manuscript fee was released on May 5th, and including the reward money, it was more than 20,000 less than last month.

However, Yan Xin and Chen Li's moods were not affected, and they lived more happily than before.

For Yan Xin, there is another source of funds.

For Chen Li, although the royalties are less, his workload is also less.

When the manuscript fees were high, I would update 20,000 words a day. I would either be coding or thinking about how to code all day long.

Now the manuscript fee is a little less, but he only needs to update 10,000 words a day. For him who can code up to 4,000 to 5,000 words per hour, it only takes two or three hours, including the time for revision.

I spend two to three hours a day coding, and another one or two hours to look at the data, interact with readers in the comment area, and discuss the next plot with Yan Xin.

The time spent on online writing is only four or five hours a day, and the rest of the time can be used to waste.

If you work hard to type words for two or three days and save tens of thousands of manuscripts, then it's no problem to go out and spend a few days.

He feels that life now is life.

Life before was just about surviving and living.

He would rather live the life he has now than make more money.

Yan Xin is still working, but he is not as cool as him.

However, after becoming the security monitor, I have greater freedom in going to work and it is easier than before.

There is no responsibility, as the monitor sometimes has to mediate disputes between owners, such as water leakage upstairs, excessive noise, decoration outside the specified time, etc.

But those are minor problems that can be dealt with if you know a little bit about speaking skills.

It's not his turn to deal with really big problems, which should be a headache for the management office.

As for the management of security in the class, that is even simpler.

Sometimes mistakes were made and fell into the hands of leaders, or complaints were made by owners.

In front of the leader, of course, you can criticize as you want.

Points must be deducted when points should be deducted.

In private, chat with the colleague who has been criticized, talk about this bad company and this bad salary, and then say that he will find a reason to add some points to him and make up for the points deducted, and everything will be fine.

Gone.

Colleagues also gave me face, and during the day shift, I was more serious than before when my boss might check on me.

In the eyes of the leaders, it is that since Squad Leader Yan took office, the mental outlook of the class has taken on a completely new look.

During the company management meeting, Manager Liu and Assistant Ai praised Yan Xin several times.

When wages were paid on May 15, Yan Xin sent another 4,000 yuan back. He said that after becoming a squad leader, he helped an owner sell a house. The owner gave him 3,000 yuan in benefits, plus a rental introduction.

The business, plus the supervisor's salary, sent so much money, and I still had five hundred yuan left.

I've been sending thousands of dollars this month. It's only been more than three months since I came here after the new year, and I've already sent almost 10,000 yuan back.

Father Yan finally believed that his son was indeed capable and could earn money to build a building.

Yan Xin also gradually improved his father's acceptance of his earning ability.

Getting over 100,000 yuan at once would scare his father.

In May, two online songs, "Where Has the Time Gone" and "The Day Is Coming" were even more popular than the previous month.

These two songs can be heard on the streets of Xiaorong Town.

Piracy has begun to appear.

Pirates are very efficient. As long as there are any popular songs on the Internet, they have the ability to make pirated discs within a few days and then start selling them.

Works by singers from different record companies can all appear on the same record.

Even singers from different countries and regions can appear on the same album.

Anyway, whatever is hot is stolen.

These two songs became popular, so they naturally appeared on that kind of platter disc.

Gu Ru, who was originally eager to release an album to bid farewell to her singing career, is no longer in a hurry.

She wanted to save a few more high-quality songs and release an album.

It is no longer the kind that is given away, but sold in the market.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a publishing company, you can publish it yourself.

If there is no offline distribution channel, she can sell it online.

It's not that she wants to make money from this, she knows that it can't be made.

In this era, except for a few top singers, the only ones who can make money by selling records are pirates.

Selling records is just to prove that you are a professional singer and that someone is willing to spend money to buy the songs you sing.

It can be regarded as the fulfillment of an obsession in my heart.

After two of her songs became popular on the Internet, she already understood that the future of pop music lies online, not on physical records.

What makes her feel gratified is that after the two songs she sang became popular, her parents finally accepted her singing and admitted that it was a career and did not force her to quit.

When she called her, her mother said: "Today your dad heard you sing the song "Where Has the Time Gone", and he shed tears while listening to it. My daughter, you can sing this song well.

very nice."

Gu Ru smiled and said, "That's because she wrote it well. Anyone who sings this kind of song will listen to it."

"But others can't sing your feelings." Her mother insisted.

In May, she returned home and formally reconciled with her parents.

I turned down a few blind dates, appeared on an entertainment program on a local TV station, and sang those two songs.

Every half month, she would give Yan Xin a share of the profits from those two songs.

In the past few years, I made my living by covering other people's songs.

But now, she relies on these two songs that Yan Xin wrote for her.

Only when various music stations started playing her songs did she have a place in this circle.

I can’t say that I have entered the entertainment industry, but at least I have half a foot in it.

Now she has appeared in some local TV variety shows one after another, and sometimes she also participates in concerts with some well-known singers.

This made her feel like she was really blushing.

Sometimes there are too many invitations, which makes her a little busy.

At this time, Yan Xin reminded her: "You should find an assistant to help you take care of this now."

Gu Ru was convinced and started looking for an assistant.

In her situation, if she wants to develop more smoothly, it is best to sign a brokerage company that can help her get jobs, help her deal with some troubles, and allow her to develop better.

However, someone with this ability will ask for a higher commission, impose some restrictions on her, and even give her some jobs that he is unwilling to take.

Signing a capable agent to help her is not something she can think about now.

With her current earning power, she cannot afford to support a capable agent.

What she is looking for is an assistant who can help her deal with the trivial matters in life, answer calls and filter out invalid information.

It's not easy to find such a person. She had this intention in mind, but she could only find it slowly.

It was only in June that I recruited an assistant. She was a young girl who had just graduated from college last year. She studied media. She had spent a few months in a brokerage company and had some working experience in this industry.

This little girl was introduced to Gu Ru by a has-been singer when she attended a platter concert.

I chatted on QQ and thought it was okay, so I hired him.

After recruiting this assistant, Gu Ru took her to Xiaorong Town. One was to visit Aunt Li, and the other was to meet Yan Xin.

These two people are very important to Gu Ru. If you have an assistant, you have to let the assistant get to know them.
