Chapter 24: Seeing others struggling to carry the burden, but taking the burden yourself and resting step by step

 {"txt":"Today's online literature has reached an unprecedented peak, with the number of authors alone reaching 20 million, and the number of readers exceeding 500 million.

However, again, the income of online literature authors is polarized. Among the 20 million authors, the number of signed authors is only 7 to 8 million, which is equivalent to only one signed author out of more than 20 authors.

Wu Yuting is lucky, she has become one of the seven to eight million signed authors.

But Wu Yuting is unfortunate, because among the 700,000 to 800,000 signed authors, more than 90% of them are just struggling at the lowest level, trying to make ends meet by working hard on websites.

Unfortunately, Wu Yuting is one of the authors of the mixed website who works hard to make ends meet.

I remember back then, when Wu Yuting was in high spirits when she first entered college. When she first came into contact with online literature, she found that the quality of some works was not much better, but they could still have many fans.

So, with the mentality that I can do whatever I want, Wu Yuting plunged headlong into the vast ocean of online literature.

As the saying goes, it’s good to see others struggling to carry a burden, but to carry it yourself and rest step by step. When Wu Yuting went to work in person, she discovered that writing is not as simple as imagined.

After uploading the "God's Work" that she carefully prepared to the website, she received not the praises she expected, but certainly no abuse, because Wu Yuting updated it silently for nearly half a month, and only received a few snake oil book reviews.

, the lack of popularity simply made her doubt her life.

The biggest feature of this online literature is real-time interaction. The author updates the chapters he has racked his brains to come up with every day, and then the readers leave comments after reading, pointing out the plots that the author has written poorly, and at the same time, the author writes well.

Praise a good plot vigorously so that the author can promptly adjust the plot direction of the book based on readers' feedback.

But after nearly half a month, Wu Yuting felt like she was playing a stand-alone game, without getting any feedback from readers at all. Her self-confidence was greatly damaged, so she hastily ended this debut novel.

Next, Wu Yuting spent three full months to adjust her mentality (healing), then regained her composure, and once again carefully prepared a work to upload to the website.

This time, perhaps because of the reasons for the success and failure of the first time, the result is better than the first time. At least some readers have left comments and a few readers have even followed up.

It's a pity that Wu Yuting insisted on writing more than 100,000 words, but she was not qualified to sign a contract, and she didn't even have 300 pieces in her collection. With such dismal results, she could no longer persist.

So, for the second work, she cut it again!

If there is one, there are two; if there are two, there are three.

Half a year later, her third work came out.

This time the number of words has increased again, and I will not cut it until it reaches more than 300,000 words.

A year later, the fourth work was released.

Perhaps because her writing skills have improved, this fourth work was finally successfully signed. Since then, Wu Yuting has been officially promoted to a contracted author and has her first VIP novel.

However, the results are still dismal, the average number of orders for the works barely exceeds 100, and the royalties received are not enough to pay the Internet fees.

Wu Yuting doesn't take it seriously. She is no longer the newborn calf she was back then. She has experienced several severe beatings and has learned that this industry is not so easy to mess around with.

However, Wu Yuting's character is still relatively stubborn, and she is determined not to give up until she achieves her goal.

After graduating from college, she ignored her parents' dissuasion and insisted on entering the online literary world and becoming a full-time author.

Now, ten years have passed in a flash.

Wu Yuting, who has worked hard in the online literature industry for more than ten years, has gone from a high-spirited young girl to a leftover girl who is urged to get married by her parents all day long.

As for the performance of the work, it’s okay not to mention it.

In fact, Wu Yuting knew a few years ago that she had no talent for writing and was not suitable for being an online author. But the stubbornness in her character made her still unwilling to give up and she was still struggling in the online literary world.

When having dinner today, Wu Yuting was once again urged to get married by her parents. In addition, she had been working in the Internet literary world for more than ten years but did not have a single fine work to her name. She was a little confused and didn't want to write anymore tonight, so she

Go out alone and relax.

More than ten years of creative career have turned her into a super otaku, and she rarely contacts friends in real life. It’s like now she can’t find a friend to have a few intimate conversations with.

In front of a milk tea shop in a commercial plaza, Wu Yuting was sitting on a brown chair drinking milk tea. Looking at the couples on the left and right spreading dog food, she suddenly felt a sense of loneliness in her heart, feeling that she was really looking for something.

I have a boyfriend.

At this moment, a gentle voice asked: "Hello, Miss, can I sit here?"

Wu Yuting looked around and found that the person asking the question was a strange and handsome little brother. Her eyes lit up and she immediately nodded and said: "Of course, please sit down!"

Jiang Feng put the milk tea in his hand on the table, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over. He smiled and said, "Hello, little sister, I am a professional matchmaker, and this is my business card."

Wu Yuting couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this. She thought he was here to chat with her, but it turned out...

Jiang Feng waited for her to take the business card, then went straight to the point and said, "Miss, if you have anything to say, I'll tell you directly. I have a very good client here that I want to introduce to you. I wonder if you have any thoughts about getting married in the near future?"<

/p>

Of course Wu Yuting had the idea of ​​getting married. After all, her age already started with three characters. She must be lying if she said she didn't want to get married and have children. Looking at the handsome matchmaker who came uninvited in front of her, she took a sip of milk tea and said, "It's my turn.

At this age, as long as you find the right person, you will definitely want to get married. I wonder what the situation is like with that excellent client you mentioned?"

Jiang Feng nodded and introduced: "My client's name is Hu Wenhua, a native of Hubei Province, and an online author..."

Wu Yuting was instantly startled when she heard the words "Internet author" and quickly interrupted: "Wait a minute, you said the other person is an Internet author?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Jiang Feng knew Wu Yuting's information very well, so he naturally understood why she reacted this way, so he nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, he is an online author. Is there any problem with this?"

Wu Yuting quickly waved her hand and said: "No problem, it's just that I know a lot about online literature and I'm a little sensitive when I hear about this profession. Which website is he the author of? What's his pen name?"

Jiang Feng said with a meaningful smile: "He is the author of Qidian. His pen name is Shiyun Wenhua. Although he is not a great author yet, he has several fine novels under his pen, especially the one currently being updated, "Rebirth"

"Nurture and Grow Rich" has the best results, with average bookings reaching over 7,000, and it is expected to reach over 10,000 before the book is completed."

If she had heard this data when she had just become an online article author, Wu Yuting, who knew nothing about the world and was full of confidence in herself, might have only one reaction: That's it?

But having been in the industry for more than ten years, and having been repeatedly beaten by reality for more than ten years, Wu Yuting has long been blunted. Naturally, she understands that the author who can own several high-quality novels on the Qidian website is already a backbone author in the Internet literary world.

.

It is a basic skill for an author at this level to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month. Once the accumulation is deep enough and he writes a hit book, then...

Thinking of this, Wu Yuting was a little moved, but she just didn't know what the other person looked like? If she didn't look good, then everything would be in vain. After all, with her figure and appearance, if she didn't insist on appearance, she would have

You can easily find a man with good material conditions to marry.

Jiang Feng seemed to understand what she was thinking. After finishing speaking, he did some operations on his mobile phone, pulled out the photo Hu Wenhua sent him, handed it to Wu Yuting and said: "This is his photo, you first see if it matches yours."

Aesthetic requirements!"

Wu Yuting took the phone and looked at it, with a look of surprise in her eyes, and said: "She looks really good, which is considered outstanding among authors!"

You know that the other party must be satisfied, after all, the marriage matching value of 88 points is no joke.

Jiang Feng asked with a smile: "Then shall I arrange for you to meet and talk, or shall I directly give you the contact information and let you chat on your own?"

Wu Yuting thought for a while and said: "Let him add me on WeChat!"

Jiang Feng nodded to express his understanding, and then the two of them added their contact information and left.

***The author has something to say***
