As for the fees, people who can afford to read books naturally won't care about that little money. For those who don't spend money, they won't spend a penny even if they have a million dollars at home.
Wan Feng already had a rough plan in mind regarding welfare measures.
Of course there must be a full attendance award, and the authors should be given the rule of updating every day from the very beginning.
You can’t write one chapter on the first day of the month and the next chapter won’t be out until the fifteenth.
Isn’t this what the world of online novels was like at the beginning? An author wrote one chapter, and it’s still unknown when the next chapter would come out.
The full attendance bonus is designed to restrict this, so of course it won’t be too high at the beginning.
Wan Feng's full attendance bonus conditions are planned to be set into three levels. If you update more than 60,000 words per month, you can get a full attendance bonus of 80 yuan.
Those who update 40,000 words per month can receive a full attendance bonus of 60 yuan.
Those who update 30,000 words per month will receive a full attendance bonus of 30 yuan.
The monthly break time cannot exceed two days.
In terms of subscriptions, Wan Feng thought about it carefully and still felt that 2 cents per thousand words was more appropriate. It was a bit too much to use 3 cents per thousand words now.
We will strive to raise the price to three cents per thousand words around 2004.
We can’t use one dollar as the minimum for rewards. This is 1999, not 2009 or 2019.
For the time being, the starting point for rewards is ten Qidian coins, which is a minimum of ten cents.
If there are rewards, there must be a monthly ticket list.
Qidian.com only started setting up a monthly ticket ranking list in 2005, and Wan Feng plans to set up a monthly ticket ranking list from the day it starts charging.
The monthly ticket list is a sign of whether an author can become a god. Without the monthly ticket list, nothing can happen.
Of course there are rewards if there is a monthly ticket list, otherwise the author would not bother to compete for the list.
The first place in the monthly ticket list will temporarily receive a bonus of one thousand yuan, and then the same will apply: eight hundred yuan, six hundred yuan, four hundred yuan, two hundred yuan, one hundred yuan, fifty yuan, and thirty yuan.
These awards will increase by 30 percent each year.
This is the current state of the website. As more authors come to the site, we will create other rankings and awards.
Wan Feng yawned and went to bed.
The biggest business news in August 1999 was probably the acquisition of Weisoft.
On August 20, AME Online announced that it would acquire VMware Soft for US$6.5 billion.
The announcement also stated that although Weiruan was acquired, its projects will continue to develop and will also explore new areas.
The following words are just for your reference. Even if the name Weiruan continues to exist, it will not last long. Maybe in three or five years, the name Weiruan will disappear in the long river of history.
The acquisition of Weisoft indicates that its systems are completely obsolete, so it is time for the systems that are tied to some Intel X86 instruction sets to be put aside.
Now Netscape Huaguang System has the final say. If you don’t step aside, who will?
Intel's X86 has been put aside, so it is time for Cheng Gong to develop his own instruction set that he created when he was making chips.
Although Netscape also has an instruction set, it is obvious that Huaguang will not let it dominate the market alone. At the very least, it will have to add some sand in the sand to prepare for the future when Huaguang's own system and chip instruction sets dominate the market.
If you bundle your own instruction set and operating system together, you will not only occupy the high ground in chip development, but anyone who develops software on this system in the future will have to use this instruction set.
This way you can achieve your goal of lying at home and counting money.
Didn’t Yintel take advantage of the bundling with the Wendusi system and get a great deal? Now it’s my turn to take advantage of it.
Wan Feng called Cheng Gong and asked him to find the dusty instruction set and improve it, preparing to bundle it with the Netscape Huaguang 2000 system to be released next year.
"Boss Wan! I don't want to call the next generation chip Huaguang-3 anymore. We can give our chips a unique name. How about calling the new generation processor Kunpeng?"
A new name? Does this mean this chip is finally here?
"Engineer Cheng, you have the final say on what to call it. Do you have any idea?"
"The design is complete. After some testing, I'm going to tape out. I think it will be ready by the end of this year or early next year."
"You have the final say on the chip. You can do whatever you want with it."
"The original instruction set is outdated. I will immediately organize people to upgrade it."
"Wait, I'll have Qin Guanghui show you the source code of the Huaguang 2000 system. Then you can see how to bundle your instruction set into it."
"good!"
After finishing the call with Engineer Cheng, Wan Feng thought about it and made an internal call to Qin Guanghui.
After Qin Guanghui traveled with his wife and children for half a month, he came back refreshed. The system test of Huaguang 2000 was completed quickly, and the hackers found all the vulnerabilities in the system and blocked them.
Qin Guanghui is now fully committed to developing the mobile phone system.
This time he was not going to integrate the systems provided by Wan Feng. He began to use the advantages of these systems to combine his own mobile phone system.
However, the project could not be supported by his own team alone, so he seconded some people from Xu Meilin's team.
Wan Feng discussed with Qin Guanghui the matter of bundling his instruction set with the Huaguang 2000 system. As for how to bundle the instruction set, he had to discuss it with Cheng Gong.
Now, in terms of computer hardware, although Huaguang and Ideal Computer have average sales in the world, they are already the absolute dominant players in China.
Huaguang is self-sufficient in central processing units, memory, motherboards, graphics cards, and hard drives. Although there is still a gap between these hardware and the world's advanced level, the gap is not large.
It is enough to compete head-on with foreign brands.
As long as they occupy the Chinese market, it won’t be long before computers gain a large share of the global market in the future.
In terms of software, the bundling of Huaguang system and instruction set has become a monopoly. Of course, the US government cannot be used to reap profits by accusing it of monopoly. Therefore, some small competing companies should not only not be killed, but also be supported when appropriate.
Just like in the previous life, Warwick did not kill Nuojiya and Ai Lixin.
In the computer field, Huaguang has begun to be on par with the Americans. What he needs to do next is to keep a low profile, try to hide all this under the iceberg, and rely on American companies to block the scenery behind it, so as to avoid falling into the clutches of Xi Ai Ai.
Since the group already has strong capabilities in the electronics field, some practical software can be put to use.
Wan Feng believes that many practical electronic controls on cars can be developed and put into use.
What about EBD brake force distribution, cruise control system, driving computer system, reversing radar...
These things can be studied, and when the time comes, once they are installed in the car, won’t it become a high-end car?
From 2005 to 2007, South Bay must have a place in the high-end car market.
