Chapter 456 The stingy dad is here (14)(1/2)
"how so?"
He Zhuo was a little dumbfounded.
I had been looking forward to the royalties for a month, and not to mention letting him squander it, he actually didn’t even have enough money to repay the loan shark!
The gap between reality and ideals directly caused He Zhuo's mentality to collapse.
"It's impossible. The score of my book is so good, it's better than the score of the original author in my time and space——"
He Zhuo's heart was confused, and his mind was filled with all kinds of doubts and dissatisfaction.
"The original author has at least earned enough money to buy a house, but I can't even repay the loan shark?"
He Zhuo seemed to have entered a dead end, complaining and being angry.
He did not think about it, but the original author could earn millions of dollars, not just in a month or two, but over several months or even a year.
As a newcomer, it is very rare to receive tens of thousands of royalties in the first month.
He Zhuo couldn't see this, and he didn't think about it. He, a junior student, had squandered tens of thousands in just one month.
His entire being was occupied by the high amount of online loans!
money!
He wants to pay back the money!
The money on hand is not enough at all, so I can only pay back part of it!
He Zhuo was a little at a loss, and his sense of superiority and self-confidence as a time traveler had been greatly affected.
He was frantically thinking of ways to make up for the hole in his online loan as soon as possible.
However, the manuscript fee is also paid on a monthly basis.
The money from last month has arrived, and he used it all to pay off his debts.
But he still owes more than half of his debt, and interest is still accruing every day.
He Zhuo——
"...How about I open another book?"
He Zhuo was so anxious that he almost lost his hair, but he still couldn't think of a better way.
Fortunately, because he had already published an online novel, it was controversial, but the results were very good.
The result of black and red is that He Zhuo gained a certain amount of popularity points.
He Zhuo opened the "System" interface, calculated it carefully, and found that the popularity value on his personal account could be exchanged for a work that could be regarded as a masterpiece of the year in their real world.
"Okay! That's it!"
This work has allowed the original author to become a god in one book.
A great writer can earn over ten million a year.
A loan sharking of tens of thousands of yuan a month is just a drop in the bucket compared to an income of tens of millions.
He Zhuo gained confidence again and hurriedly redeemed the work.
However, he finally learned the lesson from the previous book, and instead of just copying and pasting it, he started reading the whole text.
Well, it took him a week to read through the five to six million word novel.
After reading it, I started to revise the content that did not fit this time and space.
So, another half month has passed.
The only good thing is that he doesn't write with his hands, but with his mind.
Moreover, he gave up revising the last book and completely let himself go.
I just spend a few minutes every day copying seven, eight, nine, and ten chapters with my mind, and then post them to the website.
Other writers update 9,000 a day, but he updates 20,000 a day.
Readers enjoyed reading it and nicknamed He Zhuo "the tentacle monster".
As for the editor, he was a little worried and reminded him tactfully: "Do you want to control the rhythm?"
There is a certain process for writing online articles, it doesn’t mean that you just have to have enough words.
Because each stage has corresponding recommendation slots, and some heavy recommendations require queuing up.
You can't say that if you publish hundreds of thousands of words at once, the editor will arrange several recommendations for you in one go.
Of course, if He Zhuo's book could contain tens of millions of words, even if it were updated at 20,000 a day, it would still take a year or two to write.
The editor will not be too anxious, and can still make arrangements according to the process, one recommendation and one recommendation.
But... the editor took a rough look at the rhythm of He Zhuo's novel. It has more than one million words and has reached a small climax.
According to the editor's estimate, this novel will be completed in only two to three million words.
If you update 9,000 times a day, you can write for more than a year, which is considered a normal rhythm, and you can also arrange corresponding recommendations for it.
But it can be updated at 20,000 per day, maybe even more, and the book can be completed in three or four months.
There are many recommendations that may not be accommodated.
This will affect the promotion of this novel and ultimately affect the results.
The editor endured it again and again, but still sent a message to He Zhuo: "Even if you have saved the manuscript, don't publish it all!"
This does not require the author to engage in hunger marketing, but appropriately controlling the pace and extending the "writing time" of the work is also a conventional means to improve performance.
He Zhuo didn't listen because he needed money.
He made a simple and crude calculation, and found out that he could get a royalties of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month for a daily update of 9,000 yuan.
Now that he has tripled the update, he can get 70,000 to 80,000 yuan next month.
If nothing else, at least it's enough to pay off the debt.
Furthermore, it’s not like he will have nothing to write about after finishing this novel.
He also has a better and more awesome work on hand.
Editor: "...My dear, do you want to double-open? I suggest you not to do this!"
When the editor saw He Zhuo's reply, he felt more and more that this newcomer was very unreliable.
The editor was worried that He Zhuo would cause problems if he was too eager for quick success, and He Zhuo also blamed the editor for being in charge of too much.
He insisted on publishing a new book and promised, "Brother, don't worry, even if I publish a new book, it will not affect the update of the old book!"
Editor:……
This is not a question of influence or not, but a question of whether online article authors can continue to develop.
Work steadily and accumulate slowly. This is the attitude you should take if you want to develop well in the online literary circle.
On the other hand, this He Zhuo, tsk, the editor can't feel his respect and love for his own works, as if these are just tools for him to make money.
However, no matter how uncomfortable I felt in my heart, the author insisted that the editor should not be too obstructive.
After hesitating for a moment, the editor sent a message, "Well, please send me the outline and first three chapters of the new book!"
He Zhuo was waiting for this sentence.
He used his mind to copy the novel's outline and the first three chapters onto a document, and then passed it on to the editor.
The editor finished reading it quickly. Although he felt that there was something wrong with He Zhuo's attitude towards writing, he had to admit: this guy wrote a novel that was really good.
Especially this new book, both in style and writing, are much improved compared to the previous work.
The editor has a hunch that this book will be a big hit.
It's just that I'm still a little worried in my heart.
Because after reading the first three chapters, even though they were very small, he was still keenly aware of——
The writing style and wording habits of this book are obviously different from the author's previous book.
The last book was a novice urban novel, relying on novel ideas, but the writing style was very average.
It feels like a new author testing the waters.
This book is obviously very sophisticated, and the writing style has been improved by more than one or two levels.
Although it is still an urban novel, you can feel the author's literary quality and cultural heritage from the writing.
If there is a gap of one or two years between the two works and the author's previous works have improved, the editor will not find it too strange.
Now, the difference between the two works is only two or three months, this, this——
There has already been a heated discussion on He Zhuo's "plagiarism" on the forum. If such a work with an obviously different writing style and high improvement is produced again, netizens may not be sure how to doubt it.
Black and red are indeed a kind of red.
But if the author wants to develop in the online literary circle for a long time, he should try his best to cherish his feathers and avoid being stained with these stigmas!
The editor sincerely considers He Zhuo and hopes that he can develop steadily and continuously.
To be continued...
