"First, we'll have a Q&A session with our users. Everyone here today is a user of Feilong Novels, so please feel free to ask any questions you may have."

The media members in the audience all raised their hands.

Shen Fang chose a female reporter from Tencent News.

Huya handed over the microphone.

"Mr. Shen, may I ask why Feilong Novels charges per chapter? Many online novel platforms offer free reading these days."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "What I want to say about this is that you must be looking at a pirated novel platform. Regarding the piracy of novels in China, I want to say that pirated novels are not only a cancer to the online novel industry, but they are also sucking the blood out of us paid novel platforms. However, the ones who are most harmed are literary creators like us."

"Let me ask the reporters on stage, how long does it take you to write? Everyone, please raise your hands to speak."

Old Pig raised his hand first: "On average, I write about 6,000 words of updates every day. It takes me about 5 hours to think about writing these 6,000 words, and at least 10 hours to write them."

Skeleton Elf: "I might be a little faster at writing than Old Pig. My books aren't as profound or meaningful as Old Pig's, but it would take me at least four hours to write 10,000 words. Otherwise, I can't guarantee the quality of my writing."

Yan Yu Jiangnan: "I'm even slower. Writing 6,000 words a day is my limit. If it weren't for the company's minimum standard of 6,000 words for perfect attendance, I would feel that creating 4,000 words a day is my limit."

Shen Fang smiled: "I'm a little faster than you guys. I'm a tentacle monster and I type very fast, but it still takes me at least 3 hours to complete the text creation. But you should know that if pirate websites want to copy your text updates, they can simply resend your text to their platform in 2 minutes. They keep all the money and don't give you a single penny. Do you think that's fair? Do you all think that's fair?"

That's unfair!!!

The author puts so much effort into creating this work, why should pirate websites profit from it?!

Shen Fang looked at the audience below the stage: "If you want to read the words on our Feilong Novels, it will only cost you about 1 yuan. For us authors, it may be the words they rack their brains for a day or even two days to write. Do you think it is worth spending this money?"

should! ! ! !

It's just one dollar!

It's just one yuan. What's one yuan to a book you love? It's all the author's hard work.

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Piracy websites are thieves, stealing the blood of our platform and our authors. At the same time, they are misleading our readers, making you mistakenly believe that reading books is free and that free-to-read is the right thing to do. Piracy is shameful, and it is illegal and against regulations abroad. Currently, there is no regulatory body in China for online literature. I would like to appeal to everyone to pay attention to this issue. Pirated literature is harming legitimate online literature platforms like ours."

"Therefore, Feilong Novels has adopted a paid model and also joined the anti-piracy system provided by the Tencent team. I assure everyone here that as long as you read novels on Feilong, the paid chapters you pay for can only be read by you. We will protect the interests of the authors, the company, and the public. So we hope everyone will wake up, refuse to read for free, and join the paid model."

"And I guarantee here that every penny you spend at Feilong will be worthwhile. Next, Feilong will invest a lot of money to cultivate outstanding authors and write more excellent works. At the same time, our excellent completed works, after being edited and approved by us, will be published in literary and artistic journals, adapted into IPs, and invested in comics, games, animations, TV series, and movies."

"Our philosophy at Feilong is to create the number one online literature platform in China and provide the public with the best written services. Here, I welcome more people to pick up their pen. As long as you are willing to submit your work to Feilong, we will give you a 200 RMB reward for your submission after it is accepted. All you need to do is write a piece of work and add an outline to receive 200 RMB. Everyone can start writing. I hope that more excellent works will be included in Feilong Novels."

Shenzhen Daily: "Mr. Shen, is it true that your novel 'Zhu Xian' received nearly a million yuan in donations recently?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Please take a look at the PPT regarding this issue."

The large screen behind Shen Fang displayed the donation rankings and amounts from the backstage of the "Zhu Xian" series.

There are a total of 5 Gold Alliance Leaders.

There are 27 Silver Alliance Leaders.

There are 1988 ordinary alliance leaders.

998 Golden Dragons

1022 colorful phoenixes.

A gold ingot.

BRICS.

The author gets an extra chicken leg.

The total amount of tips received is [amount in yuan].

Shen Fang smiled at everyone and said, "I believe this is a comprehensive and straightforward way of telling everyone whether my number is accurate."

"It's no joke that you can make a lot of money writing novels. My book has been around for about three months, and I've already earned about 5 million yuan so far."

The book lovers in the audience were shocked.

5 million in 2002, in just 3 months—that's an astronomical figure!!!

Next came the interview segment. Shen Fang voluntarily stepped down, allowing the Huya girl to ask questions to each of the 28 writers present. Fans in the audience also asked the authors a few questions.
