Chapter 465: Extremely bad online reputation?



How can the popularity of one book affect the popularity of another book?

Some people may wonder why two books cannot be popular at the same time.

In fact, it really doesn't work.

Every year when taking stock of bestsellers, industry insiders realize this: there may be several bestsellers in a year, but they each have their own highlights. When new bestsellers are released, the limelight of old books is overshadowed. This is caused by the sales cycle and model of physical books.

Most people may not understand the industry terms, so explain it in a way that ordinary people can understand. It's like gossip. When a new melon comes out, the popularity of the old one decreases. Later generations of celebrities' own scandals became hot searches, and they often reduced the popularity of their own scandals by exposing other scandals of their peers.

Zhao Dong’s current situation is a bit like that of the well-known rock singer Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang just released a new song that was about to become a hot topic, but a bigger piece of news that attracted more attention than Mr. Wang’s new song suddenly appeared on the hot search list!

Of course, using Zhao Dong to compare Teacher Wang is indeed an insult to Teacher Wang.

Wen Ying apologized in her heart to Teacher Wang, who never made the headlines, and took a bus to Zou Weijun's workplace with a pile of newspapers.

She sat alone in the bar and read all the commentary articles, becoming happier and happier as she read.

About half an hour later, Zou Weijun hurried over.

Wen Ying sent the manuscript to Zou Weijun, who had already printed it out and brought it together with a laptop in a big bag.

"Have you read these commentaries?"

"Yeah, I just finished watching it. I didn't expect that after only a few days of seclusion, 'Teen Idol' has already become so popular."

Wen Ying was not sad at all, she was even very happy!

Zou Weijun looked at her expression and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I even asked Xie Qian to keep it a secret from you, and you don't care at all?"

This publicity strategy was not decided by Zou Weijun.

At first, there was only one critical article in the newspaper, and Zou Weijun thought it was a coincidence.

Because the newspaper was not under the "Chengdu Publishing Group", Zou Weijun had no way to deal with them.

Soon, there was a second critical article.

Zou Weijun suspected that Han Qin was behind this and was very angry. He wanted to help Wen Ying clarify the matter immediately.

She also used the newspaper under her unit to issue a clarification statement, but the secret forces that were trying to discredit her as a "fish swimming against the current" were so powerful that they seemed to be able to predict her every response. Zou Weijun was unable to suppress the negative criticism.

"Although there are people who speak up for you, but... you should first check out the online reviews."

Zou Weijun took out his laptop, connected it to the Internet, and opened the Tianya Forum.

Wen Ying laughed as soon as she saw it.

It turns out that the popularity of "Teenage Idol" and "Fish Against the Current" is not limited to Chengdu, and there are already discussion posts on Tianya Forum.

As early as a month ago, someone was serializing "Teenage Idol" on Tianya Forum.

Among a multitude of suspense, horror, and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting novels, there are actually quite a few people who follow fresh and clean youth novels like "Teenage Idol".

At that time, ordinary people did not have much copyright awareness, and the entire Internet was filled with a large number of pirated e-books. Even the authors themselves had no intention of charging for serialized novels on the forum. The novel section of Tianya Forum also produced best-selling authors. Some works accumulated popularity on Tianya, were reposted to other places by netizens, and gained great popularity. Finally, publishers contacted the authors to publish them.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Wen Ying to hold the person who serialized "Teenage Idol" on the forum accountable.

The other party did not make any profit from this, and stated early on that he was just reposting the book because he liked it and wanted to share it with more people.

The Tianya Forum in 2005 left a deep impression on netizens.

In this year, the famous "Zhouyi War" broke out.

Simply put, a Miss Yi has been posting on Tianya since last year, mocking everyone with her status as a rich person. She looks down on the four-person rooms in school dormitories, despises the school cafeteria for adding MSG to stir-fried dishes, and even the migrant workers who don't wear shoes are subjected to Miss Yi's harsh contempt.

Many netizens quarreled with Miss Yi. Miss Yi kept talking about the rich people. Netizens’ wallets were not as rich as Miss Yi’s, so they lacked confidence and were defeated one after another.

It was not until February this year that a user with the online name "67 degrees 3 minutes north latitude", later affectionately called "Mr. Zhou" by netizens, came out to beat up the arrogant Miss Yi. A wonderful debate about the "upper class" dispute took place in front of netizens. Netizens cheered for Mr. Zhou, and the moment when Mr. Zhou defeated Miss Yi became a collective carnival for Tianya netizens.

Yao Wenying said that it was because netizens today were too honest that it was time for "Mr. Zhou" to come out and criticize Miss Yi. If it were a dozen years later, just go to Zhihu and drag an anonymous user, starting with "Thank you for the invitation", and Miss Yi would be overwhelmed to deal with it.

——As the times progress, netizens’ bragging skills are naturally becoming more and more advanced.

But in 2005, only one "Mr. Zhou" scolded Miss Yi so badly that she could not resist. The influence of this "Zhou Yi War" spread from Tianya Forum to the entire Internet, and was also reprinted by print media... What does such popularity mean? It means that Tianya Forum has many new registered users who come here for its reputation, which means traffic!

This is indeed the best period for Tianya Forum.

At this time, "Teenage Idol" was reposted on Tianya, and the fresh and simple style broke through the crowd and received a lot of attention.

Originally, everyone was just reading posts and following books in a low-key manner, occasionally discussing the plot, quietly increasing the number of clicks on the posts, and being just a passerby reader.

"Aige" suddenly announced the termination of the contract with "Ni Liu De Yu" and would no longer serialize "Youth Idol" in the next issue. The author of the post has no content to serialize in the next issue, so of course he has to tell the netizens who follow the series.
