My Website Is About to Go Bankrupt

Fang Yang, a struggling bar singer, soul-transferred into a parallel universe where he inherited a dying website and a music academy, graduating from a student who lost both parents. He revived th...

Chapter 189, /.

After summarizing the situation, Fang Yang opened his own website, "Yuewen Reading Website." Upon entering, he immediately frowned; the reading experience was terrible. Most of the website was occupied by advertisements. Opening a book, he was constantly bombarded with annoying ads. In his previous life, Fang Yang had suffered greatly from this when reading online novels. Others could pay to avoid ads, but Fang Yang, lacking money, could only endure it. It wasn't until some reputable, large-scale reading websites reduced their ads that Fang Yang began to enjoy reading again.

Upon closer inspection, Fang Yang found the website categorization to be truly baffling. Unable to bear it any longer, he called Yang Huajin from next door to convene a company-wide meeting.

A few minutes later, Liu Fang, the finance manager, Zhou Kai, the editor-in-chief, Chen Fushu, the deputy editor-in-chief, Chen Chen, the website's technical director, and Su Qiong, the network administrator, came in one after another. They were all old members of the Fang family and were familiar with Fang Yang. After greeting him, they all found a place to sit down and waited for Fang Yang to speak.

Fang Yang didn't stand on ceremony. He first thanked everyone for their support of the website, and then asked Yang Huajin, "Uncle Yang, how much is our website's monthly advertising revenue?"

Yang Huajin pondered for a moment before saying, "There are currently five advertising companies on the website, and the monthly advertising revenue is about ten thousand!"

Fang Yang waved his hand, "Uncle Yang, if it's only 10,000 a month, then stop it all. Too many ads seriously affect the reader's experience. From now on, the website will stop recruiting advertisers for these kinds of ads. We can recruit some print ads, but try to recruit as few as possible. The website will not make money from ads in the future!"

Yang Huajin seemed to want to say something, but in the end he pouted and said nothing, only a hint of worry in his eyes.

Fang Yang turned to Chen Chen, "Uncle Chen, I'd like to completely redesign the website. How long will that take?"

Chen Chen smiled and said, "That depends on what kind of revision it is?"

Fang Yang thought for a moment, "The page design should be a bit fresh and light. The website will mainly target young people in the future, so there should be less heavy design. In addition, in terms of categories, it will be mainly divided into male and female channels, with categories such as urban, martial arts, suspense, entertainment, fantasy, history, superpower, xianxia, ​​science fiction, and sports. Then, we will add comment and reward functions below the books. In addition, we will add four major lists: recommendation list, hot list, completed list, and voting list."

Upon hearing this, Chen Chen exclaimed, "Wow, this update is quite significant! I'll need some time, probably around three days!"

Fang Yang nodded, "Okay, then I'll give you three days. Aunt Su, go and announce to the entire network that the website will be completely redesigned and shut down for three days. There will be a big surprise after three days!"

Su Qiong nodded in agreement, and Fang Yang then said to Yang Huajin, "So, now there's only one last question: how do we attract traffic? I have a groundbreaking new martial arts novel that will be uploaded to the website in three days. Uncle Yang, how much would it cost to attract traffic across the entire internet?"

Upon hearing that there was a groundbreaking new martial arts novel, the group was filled with excitement. They had been searching for such a book for far too long, and sometimes, a single book could save a website.

Yang Huajin stood up. “Promoting a book across the entire internet isn’t very realistic. Our website only has less than 100,000 yuan left. To do a full-scale promotion, we need at least 200,000 yuan! If you have any good books, I’ll ask my friend. He’s a senior book recommender on the internet. As long as the book is good, he doesn’t need money. Just treat him to a meal, and he’ll definitely help.”

Fang Yang also stood up, "Alright, the success or failure of the company hinges on this. Then I'll leave it to you uncles and aunts. As long as the website survives this crisis, everyone here will have their salaries doubled, plus bonuses!"

Everyone stood up, their faces filled with excitement. Having been with the company for a long time, they had all developed a strong attachment to it. With the company facing a life-or-death situation, Fang Yang was able to save the website with a book. Who wouldn't be excited? The group left the office one after another, each going about their assigned tasks, their steps lighter than ever.

Fang Yang said to Yang Huajin, who was walking at the back, "Uncle Yang, I'll be writing at home these next few days. I'll be relying on you to keep an eye on the company!"

Yang Huajin chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. You should also get some rest at home and not write too late!"

Fang Yang waved, went out, took the subway home, and bought some vegetables, pork, eggs and the like on the way. He made a simple meal of two dishes and a soup when he got home, and took a nap after lunch.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Yang sat upright in his study, turned on his computer, created a new document on the desktop, and began his book-copying routine.

"Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" is the longest novel written by Mr. Huang after he retired from the peak of his life and went into seclusion in the mountains. His writing style has reached perfection. As soon as the book was published, it became popular in Hong Kong, mainland China and Taiwan. Later, it was adapted into a TV series, which was also widely praised.

The document begins with the title "The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty," followed by a brief introduction: At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang, emboldened by his wealth and power, indulged in insatiable desires, suppressing remonstrances and concealing his faults. This led to widespread chaos and rebellion, with the entire nation united against him. In this turbulent era, two street urchins, struggling to make ends meet, through their extraordinary talent and a stroke of luck, ultimately became unparalleled grandmasters, changing the fate of the martial arts world and even the entire realm.

The entire novel "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" consists of 63 volumes and more than 800 chapters, with an average of more than 5,000 words per chapter. Fang Yang's typing speed is not fast, and he can only write about one chapter in an afternoon. There is nothing he can do about it. In his previous life, Fang Yang was a miserable person and had no spare money to play computer games. In this life, his predecessor was a music fanatic. He only had music and nothing else to do. He had no leisure to indulge in computer games!

Volume 1, Chapter 1: Dependent on Each Other for Life. "Yuwen Huaji stood atop the command platform of the warship, gazing at both banks of the canal. It was still dark, and under the illumination of the lampposts of the five giant ships, the stars and moon in the sky paled in comparison, as if to show that the rise of his Yuwen clan had caused the southern gentry to lose their former glory."

Although the novel does not specify a time period at the beginning, the appearance of Yuwen Huaji makes the time period clear. In the five thousand years of Chinese civilization, apart from the end of the Sui Dynasty, where has there been a second Yuwen clan?

"Yuwen Huaji was around thirty years old. He was tall and thin, with long arms and legs. His face was ancient and weathered, and his expression was cold. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, giving people a cold and ruthless impression, but he also had a domineering aura that was awe-inspiring."

With just a few strokes, he vividly portrays the characters. Jin Yong likes to narrate events in a straightforward manner, Gu Long prefers concise language, and Huang Yi's character portrayals are unique, each with its own emphasis and charm.

Relatively speaking, Fang Yang prefers Huang Gongwang's books more. The rise of an ordinary person in "The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" and the extreme passion and swordsmanship in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" both fascinated Fang Yang in his previous life.

In one afternoon, Fang Yang barely managed to copy a chapter. Shaking his slightly sore arms, he made a simple dinner, ate it in a few bites, and then went for a walk in the neighborhood to digest his food.

Fang Yang's neighborhood is not far from the Bund. When he bought it, he thought the prices in this area were not expensive. Who knew that Shanghai would expand so much later? What was originally a relatively remote neighborhood has now become a prime location in Shanghai where every inch of land is precious, and the price has increased more than tenfold. It can be said that he planted willows and they swayed the shade!
