That's right, it's the long-awaited online platform – Qidian Chinese Website and Qidian International Website.

The development speed of online literature in China far exceeds that of foreign countries. While the Chinese online literature market is nearing saturation, the foreign online literature market is still a blank slate.

In my past life, forums that relied solely on translating Chinese martial arts novels were very popular in the United States.

After I Eat Tomatoes translated Panlong, it became a hit in the United States.

China has thus launched its online literature export plan. In 2020, the market size of Chinese online literature exports reached 1.13 billion yuan, with a growth rate of 145%; the number of users reached 83.161 million, with a growth rate of 160.4%.

At this time, "The Primordial World 1: The Three Races' Battle for Supremacy" was sweeping the globe, and Wujiang Group launched the Qidian International website and released "The Primordial World" at the same time, which was just the right time!

It's likely that countless players will be very interested in this game of the same name.

A lot of game content and strategies can be found in this game of the same name. If you watch it, you will definitely have a greater advantage than other players.

"Mr. Zhou, how's the preparation for Qidian.com going? Is it ready to go live now?" Zhao Ye arrived at Qidian.com, found Zhou Wen, the person in charge of the website, and asked directly.

"You can go online now!!" Zhou Wen replied while pouring tea for Zhao Ye.

"Okay, that's good. The official launch time is set for 9:00 AM on January 1st, 2002. Oh, by the way, how many online novels has Qidian.com indexed so far?" Zhao Ye nodded and then asked.

Zhou Wen replied, "Since the website hasn't officially launched yet, the number of online novels is relatively small, only about 1,200. However, we have also collected some published physical books, mainly martial arts and science fiction works, such as works by Jin Yong, Gu Long, Liu Cixin, and others. So, in total, Qidian Chinese website currently has about 5,000 books."

After a pause, Zhou Wen quickly added, "Chairman Zhao, please rest assured, I believe that as soon as the Qidian website goes online, the benefits and perks we offer to writers will definitely attract countless people to post on our Qidian website!"

Zhao Ye smiled and nodded in satisfaction. He then picked up his teacup, took a sip, and asked, "How is the preparation for the Qidian International website progressing?"

The main purpose of establishing Qidian International website is not to promote the development of foreign online literature, but to help Chinese online literature go global and export Chinese culture to foreign countries.

Although Zhou Wen was not the direct person in charge of Qidian International website, he was very familiar with the preparation of Qidian International website.

He thought for a moment and replied, "Chairman Zhao, Qidian International website has many language versions, but the main translation language is English. Currently, we have 120 English translators, 80 Japanese translators, 50 Korean translators, and 40 French translators..."

"Currently, these translations mainly focus on martial arts novels by Jin Yong and Gu Long, as well as a small number of domestic science fiction works. You know, Americans are quite fond of science fiction, so I think Chinese science fiction might also become popular in the United States."

Zhao Ye frowned slightly. One of the biggest challenges for Chinese online literature going global is translating the works.

If there are few works, that's not a problem; there are enough excellent translators to solve the problem.

However, once the number of works increases, the translation cannot keep up with the speed.

Not just anyone who knows both Chinese and English can be a good translator.

Whether a work is good or not is also closely related to its translation.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Ye decided that he needed to train a group of excellent translators in the future.

Zhao Ye had considered using AI for translation, but with current technology, even if it were possible, the resulting content would definitely be appalling.

...

Classic works will only become more and more popular, such as "Primordial World 1: Three Races Fight for Supremacy".

By the end of the month, the game had surpassed 150 million registered users, breaking a world record.

The Wujiang Group raked in over $30 billion from the "Mysterious Race Lottery" alone, causing a global sensation!

In addition, in-game spending generates an average daily revenue of $440 million, and this figure is clearly on the rise.

Foreign media outlets have described "The Primordial World 1: The Three Races' Battle for Supremacy" as a super money-printing machine for the Wujiang Group.

At the same time, the explosive popularity of "Primordial World 1: Three Races Battle for Supremacy" also boosted the sales of "Shenzhou Computer 4".

In developing countries, although people have low incomes and cannot afford computers, internet cafes still have to upgrade their computers.

The "trade-in" program launched by Wujiang Group is very attractive to internet cafe owners. In addition, Galaxy Bank is also willing to provide loans to internet cafe owners, which has led to a large-scale computer replacement campaign in internet cafes all over the world.

In China, due to the booming business of internet cafes and the resulting shortage of supply, internet fees have gradually increased, generally rising from 4 yuan per hour to 5 yuan per hour. In first-tier cities, internet fees of 6 or 7 yuan are quite common.

In developed countries such as Europe and America, the price of the "Hasee 4" computer was only $2,500, which was affordable for most families. These European and American users were the main force driving the purchase of the "Hasee 4".

To date, the global sales of the "Hasee 4" computer have reached 110 million units, causing a huge stir in the industry. And all of this was achieved in just a few short months…

It can only be described as terrifying!

What's even more interesting is that the explosive popularity of the "Hasee 4" also boosted sales of iBook laptops. This is because "Hasee" and "iBook" have achieved a high degree of ecosystem integration, with devices merging and communicating with each other.
