Reborn since 2005

Chapter 33 There are too few genuine readers

Not many people use QQ on their mobile phones now. Most people don't have mobile phones yet, and most mobile phones now don't support QQ software.

Although the absolute number is large, when spread among a population of more than one billion, the proportion is too small.

Those people Yan Xin replied to are all offline.

I don’t know when they will reply next time.

What Yan Xin feels is that the efficiency of chatting on QQ is not as good as sending letters.

In this so-called E-era, many magazines still have advertisements for making pen pals. It can be seen that most people still do not have the conditions to access the Internet, especially they do not have the conditions to access the Internet at any time.

Yan Xin didn't expect to chat with those people online. After replying to those messages, he put away his phone.

In front of others, this mobile phone is a powerful and fun smartphone, but in Yan Xin's mind, it is too backward to arouse any interest in playing with it.

He would rather lie in bed and be in a daze than play with this phone.

When it was time to eat, I went to the cafeteria to eat, then packed a bag for Chen Li to bring over, and only woke up Chen Li when I returned to the dormitory.

After eating, as usual, the two of them found a deserted place in the community to discuss the book "Fights Break the Sphere".

However, there is not much discussion about the characters and plot now, because there was enough discussion before, and the structure created is enough for Chen Li to write another one or two hundred chapters.

The most I can do is to improvise some better plot and incorporate it into it.

Now they are discussing readers' feedback and various data about the novel.

Then look forward to the subscriptions after they are put on the shelves.

The data is getting better and better, which makes Chen Li raise his expectations for this book.

He was not as bold as Yan Xin, and he set a small goal of 10,000 yuan as soon as he opened his mouth.

However, he felt that it shouldn't be difficult to achieve a score of 2,000.

An average of 2,000 yuan. If I update 10,000 words a day, my monthly income from manuscript fees is about 5,000 to 6,000 yuan. I feel happy just thinking about it.

His dream is to quit his job as a security guard after receiving the royalties, save a computer, install an Internet cable, and rent a house to write full-time.

Then he can code more words and make more money.

In the Internet literature world, his idol is Xue Hong, a writer who is very fast in coding. It can be said that he has single-handedly increased the daily update volume in the Internet literature world.

He also wants to be such a person.

Now he is very poor and wants to earn more money. He is not afraid of hardship as long as he has such an opportunity.

If Yan Xin hadn't stopped him and advised him not to work too hard, he would have coded one more chapter every day.

The collection of that book now has more than 50,000, which is a very exaggerated number in this era.

Especially for a newbie.

Chen Li does not have as much confidence in subscribing as Yan Xin. He mainly doubts that there are so many channels to watch pirated copies. Will there really be so many people spending money to subscribe?

People are willing to spend two or three yuan an hour to go to an Internet cafe to surf the Internet, but they are not necessarily willing to spend a few cents to read a chapter of a novel.

After all, in this era, the so-called spirit of the Internet is sharing and free.

In this era, Qidian has not been charging for subscriptions for a long time, and it has not yet cultivated so many genuine readers.

On the one hand, there is a lack of awareness to support genuine products.

On the other hand, it lacks the ability to support genuine versions.

Those great masters have proven themselves with their previous works and can have some loyal fans to subscribe to their new novels. Their subscription ratio will be correspondingly higher.

But it is a bit difficult for a newcomer to achieve such results.

"I don't have any loyal fans," Chen Li expressed his opinion to Yan Xin. "It's hard for me to let them choose to pay for subscription for me."

At this time, Qidian has not yet opened the reward function, and he does not know how many of the readers who have collected his books are prostitutes for free, and how many are users who are willing to subscribe to genuine books.

The data is getting better and better, but it has not brought much growth to his confidence.

Fortunately, his ambitions are not too big, and he feels that if he can reach an average of two thousand, he will be quite successful.

Yan Xin told him in a positive tone: "You don't have to worry about this at all. Although I have never written an online novel, when I have read a lot of online novels, I can be sure that the score of this book will not be bad. Believe me, once

Wanding is just a small goal, and the actual results can definitely exceed this data by a lot."

As he said this, he felt in his heart that Chen Li's worries were not unreasonable.

It is indeed difficult for a newcomer to gain the recognition of so many readers and make them willing to pay for subscriptions.

Even Xiaodou, the son of a plane in the Internet literary world, had a book before he published "Fights Break the Sphere". He also won the Rookie King of the year and had a certain readership accumulation.

Chen Li is just a new account, starting from scratch.

I thought to myself: "I really need to think of some way to give his readers a reason to support him and turn his readers into his fans. Only in this way will the number of subscriptions be high and my performance in writing books will be guaranteed in the future."

When I went to work in the afternoon, I was still thinking about this issue.

Only a few minutes after taking over, Ai Lili came over again and entered his post directly.

She is the assistant to the director of the management office, and there is no problem at all when she comes to check on her subordinates' positions.

As soon as she entered the door, Yan Xin handed her two hundred yuan.

She was stunned for a moment: "What?"

"The money to buy your mobile phone," Yan Xin smiled a little helplessly, "Didn't you come here just to get the money?"

"oh……"

Ai Lili remembered it and blushed:

"I almost forgot."

After collecting the two hundred yuan, he took out a charger and a pair of headphones from his bag, and said with some embarrassment:

"I only took my mobile phone, charger and earphones and left them at home yesterday. I didn't remember them until I got home, so I brought them to you today."

Nokia original chargers and headphones still cost a little money to buy.

Yan Xin realized this yesterday, but it's hard for him to ask for it - they only charge you two hundred yuan for such a good mobile phone, what else do you want?

He was about to buy a universal charger, but he didn't expect that Ai Lili sent it to him again, which made him a little surprised and a little touched.

Said: "Thank you, Sister Lily."

"What is there to be grateful for?" Ellie said, "I sell you a mobile phone, so of course I have to give you the charger and headphones, otherwise how will you use them?"

Then he asked: “Have you applied for a mobile phone card today?”

Yan Xin nodded: "It's done."

Ai Lili took out her mobile phone and put her hand on the number keys:

"What's your mobile phone number? I'll save your number."

Yan Xin gave out his mobile phone number.

As he spoke, Ellie pressed the number. After he finished speaking, Ellie dialed the number.

The call went through, but Yan Xin didn't answer, so Aili hung up and saved his mobile phone number.

Yan Xin also saved Ai Lili's number. While saving it, he said with a smile: "Sister Lili, your new phone is so beautiful."

"Of course," Ai Lili said with some pride, "I fell in love with it at first sight, and it cost me more than four thousand."

They saved each other's numbers and asked Yan Xin: "Do you have a QQ number? If so, we will add it too."

When adding QQ numbers, the two people complained to each other:

"You are only 18 or 19 years old, how can you choose such an old nickname as Ji Xiang Ruyi?"

"Sister Lili, 'Heart is like still water', your nickname has a story!"

Thanks to Lulu Zhuzhu for the tip.
