Reborn during the early days of China’s reform and opening, the narrator finds himself in the 1980s countryside. In this setting, the past is still a cold reference, yet it is also a fresh start....
After two months of public beta, the game "Legend" entered the paid period. Players who have reached level 15 in the game will have to buy game cards to recharge if they want to continue playing.
If you don't buy game cards to extend your life, you will have to give up halfway.
In addition to the point cards that are charged by the hour, Huaguang Online Games also launched a monthly point card that costs 40 yuan.
If your financial situation allows, a monthly subscription is more appropriate.
Back then, once you activated the Shengda hourly point card, it would consume your time regardless of whether you played or not.
The Huaguang game card starts counting time from the moment the character appears in the game and stops counting time after the character exits the game.
In fact, if Huaguang Online Games was cruel, it could have just used the same tactics as Shengda did, but Wan Feng disagreed.
He had played games in an Internet cafe before and knew how hard and difficult it was to be a gamer.
I don't need that little bit of dirty money, although the ultimate goal is still to make money, just a little less.
Players can choose between these two point cards.
If players only play the game for two or three hours a day, then it is appropriate to buy an hourly card. Thirty yuan for 150 hours can provide about 50 days of play.
However, for players who spend more than ten hours in Internet cafes, using hourly cards is not suitable.
If you spend ten hours in an Internet cafe a day, you can save twenty yuan by using a monthly card.
Huaguang Online Games can be said to be very considerate.
But there is no harm without comparison. Even without comparison, no one will say hello to you. Maybe players will still curse Huaguang Online Games for being cruel or something behind your back.
This is a matter of opinion. Hua Guang just pretended not to see it.
On the first day of charging, the data from Huaguang’s backend showed that 3,400 cards were charged in ten hours, and this was only the daytime data.
That is about 100,000 yuan.
Even though Huaguang Online Games had already opened 30 zones and had a maximum of 130,000 online users, they had no idea how many people bought game cards to recharge their accounts for the first time.
After seeing this number, they breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that there would be no problem in maintaining their capital.
As for how much money you can make next, we'll have to wait and see.
By the evening, the background showed that more than 3,000 cards had been charged.
It is now basically certain that based on this guarantee, this game should have no problem making hundreds of thousands of dollars a month.
Wan Feng didn't even ask about the recharge situation of the "Legend" game. He knew that it must be good. It was just the beginning and its glory was yet to come.
By the time "Legend" started charging, Qidian.com had already been charging for five months.
On November 2nd, the authors' royalties for this month were calculated.
Because the word count of novels during this period remained below 500,000, the paid word count of a book was only about 300,000, so the author's subscription income did not increase much.
In addition, the proportion of readers paying is not too high, so an author's income of more than 1,000 yuan a month is basically enough.
Although authors' income has not increased much, this group is expanding rapidly.
By November, there were more than ten people earning over 1,000 yuan, and the highest-earning person was Zhang Xuan's "Xiu Xian Lu"
Under Wan Feng's guidance, this pioneering work on cultivation on Qidian.com established a complete upgrade system and gave incisive descriptions of exciting moments.
In his previous life, Wan Feng wrote semi-realistic stories about rebirth and had never written a fairy-tale book.
But even if he hasn't eaten pork, he has seen pigs running. He has also read a lot of fairy tales and fantasy books.
He was familiar with the routines of this type of book, so he had no problem using it to guide Zhang Xuan.
When no one else knew what the Xianxia genre was, it was natural for "Xiu Xian Lu" to stand out.
Zhang Xuan’s record of cultivating immortals now has more than 400,000 words, and this is just the beginning after more than ten years.
But in 2000, the book had entered its middle stage, and the climax and drop appeared, and readers were very excited.
There were a lot of rewards, even though they were only a few cents.
Zhang Xuan's pen name has been changed to Gentle as a Flower, and now this pen name is recognized as a big shot on Qidian.
At that time, powerful people on the Internet were not called "gods", but "heroes", and after a few calls they became "big shrimps".
Zhang Xuan’s pen name was changed by Wan Feng. I wonder if Zhang Xuan will beat him up after she finds out what happened to Ruhua more than ten years later?
But Zhang Xuan was already in her forties at that time, so I don’t think she would beat me.
Zhang Daxie's monthly income this month totaled more than 2,000 yuan. He was the first person on Qidian.com to break the 2,000 yuan monthly income mark, and he deserved to be called a hero.
The reason why she earned so much was that her book won the monthly ticket championship this month, and the prize for the monthly ticket champion was one thousand yuan.
If she hadn't received the 1,000 yuan bonus, her income would still be over 1,000 yuan, which would have been an additional 300 to 400 yuan.
Zhang Xuan no longer objects to Wan Feng calling her "Da Xia" because everyone on the internet is calling her "Da Xia" and it is not an insult but rather a kind of honor.
In November, the number of Qidian writers earning over 1,000 yuan reached 13. These people are now all called "Big Shrimp", and Haiyanglan is one of them.
He was only two dollars away from earning over two thousand this month. Wan Feng even joked that why not give himself a five-dollar tip, so that he could already earn over two thousand.
Haiyanglan thought seriously for two minutes and said, "I give myself a reward! I'm just free!"
As for the big shot on the website, Comrade I am a gangster and I am not afraid of anyone, there are still many people who are thinking about it.
The editor of the website came out to explain that I am a gangster and I am not afraid of anyone. Comrade is the boss of Qidian.com. He originally wrote the book because the website had no authors, so he wrote it to make up the number.
Now that the website has authors, as the boss, if he makes money by writing books on the website, one reason is that he takes up the resources of other writers, and the other is that he is afraid of people talking behind his back, so he will not write again after he stops writing.
This explanation actually attracted a lot of praise, such as he deserved to be successful, and he could be a boss and write such a good book.
In fact, it is not that noble. Someone is just too lazy and doesn't want to suffer the sin.
In addition to these thirteen writers who earn over a thousand, there are more than thirty writers who earn nearly a thousand. This nearly a thousand refers to writers whose income is over eight hundred and not far from one thousand.
Wan Feng looked at the names of these writers, but there was really no one he had heard of.
Perhaps he was ignorant of the writers of that era and did not even know the famous ones.
Further down, writers with incomes between 300 and 600 or 700 yuan still make up the majority, reaching more than 300 people.
These talents are the backbone of the website, and they will be called gods in the future.
Finally, there are as many as six or seven hundred contracted low-level writers, whose income ranges from a few hundred to three hundred.
After this group of writers with income, there are thousands of writers who are still trying to get signed contracts.
This month, Qidian.com will pay out more than 500,000 yuan in royalties for the first time.
