Reborn since 2005

Chapter 23 Signed

Yan Xin and Chen Li worked very hard during this period.

Of course, the one who fought the hardest was Chen Li.

Although he only publishes one chapter every day, he writes three chapters every day.

This was not the time when the KKK was running rampant, and basically every chapter was over 3,000 words long.

Three chapters are almost 10,000 words.

This code amount is still quite 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 lapses in writing, and the writing is quite smooth.

But no matter how smoothly I write, I can't go back to the dormitory to sleep until three or four in the morning.

Yan Xin also works hard, but not to that extent. When he has free time, he often writes down some keywords in his notebook and incorporates the ideas he thinks are good.

Every day Chen Li looks at the data in the background.

There were more and more collections, and soon the number exceeded 100, and after two days, it reached 300.

There are also more and more recommendation votes and comments.

There were also a lot of scoldings. Some scolded him for writing novels that were superficial and lacking in content, but most of them scolded him for being too slow in updating.

These comments also gave Chen Li confidence.

Currently, the novels are not signed, not recommended, and do not have much exposure. It is quite good to have such data.

It's not as good as the data brought by books published by great masters with their own traffic, but for a new account, it's absolutely excellent.

Less than 30,000 words, I received the signing contract, which made Chen Li extremely excited.

The last book he wrote on this website only signed a contract with 70,000 to 80,000 readers. At that time, he already felt that he was pretty awesome.

Only now do I realize that I can be even more awesome.

That day, he turned on his computer, logged in to his account, and received the contract message. He was so excited that he shouted, attracting the attention of everyone around him.

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

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

After all, I was a person who lived for more than thirty years in my previous life, so I was not so impulsive.

Chen Li's salary had been paid and he had a few hundred yuan in his hand. He was so excited that he took out a ten-yuan note and handed it to Yan Xin:

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

Well, both of them are poor, so they can only celebrate on this scale.

Yan Xin didn't have enough money in his pocket, and he was not pretentious. He took the ten dollars and went out. After a while, he came in with two bottles of cold beer and a small bag of peanuts.

The two of them drank wine and ate peanuts while reading the comments. Within twenty minutes, they finished drinking and eating all the peanuts.

This little beer won't make them drunk.

After the celebration, according to the previous practice, the draft written by Chen Li the day before was reviewed, and those that needed to be revised were revised, and those that were not necessary were passed.

The more Chen Li writes, the easier it becomes, and there are fewer and fewer places that need to be revised.

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

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

It’s not like they want to create a literary work with profound connotations, they just want to create a hit online article.

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

And people who are on the same level of appreciation as him are the majority of this society.

If you can capture the hearts of this group of readers, you will be able to eat online novels.

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

Especially for those authors who are not very good at writing, there is absolutely no need to embarrass themselves and others.

Chen Li has had the experience of signing a contract once and knows what procedures should be followed.

I usually go to the Internet cafe after get off work. In order to complete the signing process, I went to the Internet cafe during the day the next day to discuss the contract signing with the person on the website.

The process went a bit slowly, and it took another day before I received the signed contract.

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

Printing and express delivery cost dozens of yuan in total, which really gave Chen Limu a lot of pain.

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

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

After sending the contract out and before changing the signing status, he mentioned 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 trap with confidence.

He also said that when the contract status of the book changes, he will update two chapters a day.

It's not that he is reluctant to release the manuscript, but he still has to go to work. It is better to rest during the middle shift and have enough time to type.

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

Occasionally a day or two is fine, but if it lasts for a long time, the body will definitely not be able to bear it.

No matter what, you have to leave some manuscripts there, otherwise there will be big problems if updates are interrupted.

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

Yan Xin also agreed with him doing this.

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

It was already three days after the website received the contract he sent and changed his novel to contract status.

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

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

After finishing the morning shift the next day and changing clothes after get off work, I 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, there are more collections, and there are more and more recommendation votes and comments.

After changing the contract status, I started updating two chapters a day.

Qidian has not yet developed a reward function. Before it is put on the shelves, no matter how good the data is, there will be no income.

At that time, the data was not good and we were not even qualified to put it on the shelves for sale.

Many people can't persist, and Chen Li didn't persist either.

He couldn't see the hope of putting it on the shelves, and he didn't have the conditions to keep using love to generate electricity, so he had to give up.

However, I am quite confident this time because the novel data is getting better and better.

There were no recommendations at first, but there was a new book list, which was a better exposure opportunity.

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

"Fight Breaking the Sphere", which they collaborated on, ranks relatively high on the new book list, which also makes the data of this book getting better and better.

At the beginning, there was no data about the original work in the original time and space, because this account was a purely new account, and the time was still in 2005. At that time, there were not many people who had access to the Internet. Among those who had access to the Internet, some liked to read online novels.

Not many, the readership of the website is not as large as the later ones.

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

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

They saw the hope of a hit.

They also saw the hope of changing their destiny.

They all chose to be security guards.

However, it is not that they like to be security guards.

It's just that among the few pitiful choices they can make, security is the one they least hate.

They work hard because they understand that no matter how hard they work in this position, they will not be able to earn a bright future.

——At best, it’s just a security squad leader, which is a salary of two hundred yuan a month. Is it that tempting?

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.
