Tomato is also an author.

She doesn't lack money, she just lacks recognition.

When money is just a number to a person, what she needs is a sense of recognition, or... emotional resonance.

So, she started writing novels.

Putting what she sees, hears, thinks, and dreams into the pen and keyboard, when characters appear on the paper or on the screen, an indescribable pleasure will arise in her heart.

Tomato has written many books, which have been published on various websites, but without exception, they have all been scrapped.

As for the reason, it may be the same as panda or oolong tea...not knowing how to cater to the market.

But why does she need to cater to the market?

On whichever website you fall, get up on that website, throw coins, and acquire...

Therefore, the Tomato Chinese website became hers, the Bamao Chinese website became hers, and the Feilu Chinese website also became hers...

After all, coding for rich people is so unpretentious and boring.

Some time ago, she was submitting articles to the Chinese website of Terminal.

As the leading website in the field of paid reading, Dingmin Chinese website is the dream of all street writers.

As long as you can sign a contract at the end of the line, regardless of whether you can make money, at least it means that you are really successful!

Tomato naturally thinks so too.

She firmly believes that with her understanding of online writing and the accumulation of so many years of continuous writing, she will be able to sign a contract and become a god in one fell swoop!

By the way, most of the street hunters probably think the same way.

As a result, she happily submitted the manuscript, only to receive rejection emails one after another.

The writing is cold and disdainful of words.

So, she also acquired the Chinese website of Dingmin, which led to the scene at the beginning.

As for those editors who rejected the manuscript, she sent them to Africa, in the name of letting online articles go global, actively integrating with international standards, and embracing the market...

Unexpectedly, online articles became popular in Africa and became a new performance growth point for Dingdu.com Chinese website...

Of course, this is a topic for later, so I won’t mention it for now.

Gradually, she found that she seemed to have become a god.

No matter which website she submits to, she can always get the best contract and the greatest exposure...

The number of clicks and the like is rising rapidly, and all the comments in the comment area are in Chinese, such as worshiping and worshiping great gods.

However, people are mean sometimes, and once they get it, she feels less interested.

So, she decided to change her vest and start from the gallop again.

All because of...Xia Jun.

Xia Jun is Tomato's only best friend. The two first met in their freshman year, gradually got along with each other, and eventually became irresistible best friends.

Xia Jun also knew that Tomato was writing a book, and she was also Tomato's biggest fan, a die-hard fan. Every time she finished writing a chapter, Tomato would always show it to Xia Jun immediately, and Xia Jun would read it word for word.

Go ahead and give your own opinion.

Naturally, Xia Jun also had reasons for choosing to go galloping.

Because Xia Jun often mentioned a Chicheng editor named Fries, how serious he was in his work and how talented he was.

Tomato knew for the first time that Xia Jun’s eyes would shine when talking about someone!

She naturally knew the reason, and at the same time, she was also very curious about the fries.

What kind of person could be so obsessed with such an excellent Xia Jun?

At that time, she was looking back at old TVB dramas for inspiration. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind, and on impulse, she turned the idea in her mind into words...

That is, "Travel to TVB to match up the male lead and the second female lead".

Then she submitted the manuscript to French Fries, and to her surprise, it actually got approved!

Fries didn't know who she was, but this sense of recognition made Tomato feel inexplicably satisfied.

So she started coding day and night again.

However... I believe those of you who know Chicheng also know that although Chicheng's name sounds great, in fact, its traffic is just that.

However, Tomato continued to write happily until one day, she received a call from Xia Jun.

Sobbing, even sobbing.

From her intermittent description, she realized that the source of everything was French fries.

Although there was not much complaint in Xia Jun's words, just grievance and unwillingness, in Tomato's heart, he had already labeled French fries as a scumbag.

No reason is needed, everything Xia Jun showed is the reason.

This judgment is naturally somewhat arbitrary, but for Tomato, as long as she feels it, it is enough to determine everything.

But on the surface, she didn't show anything strange.

The relationship between editors and writers is actually very simple, and even...except for simple communication during the signing of the contract, there may not necessarily be more contact at the end.

Time flies so fast, and many things are just suppressed in my heart, ready to be moved.

Soon, her restless heart began to wander again.

The reason is that many authors in the French fries group have successfully obtained guaranteed contracts from him.

Although for Tomato, these money are just small amounts of money that she usually doesn't value at all.

But for writers, the difference between guarantees and profit sharing is as big as the sky.

So, she started submitting articles again.

Rejection, rejection, ruthless rejection...

There was some feedback at first, but gradually, I don’t know whether it was because I was tired, or because I just couldn’t be taught... In short, Tomato’s guarantee was never successful.

Looking at the group of french fries, there are a few big bosses chatting and laughing.

Tomato was completely angry.

She thought her writing was okay, but... plus she wanted to give Xia Jun a break, so she decided to destroy Chicheng.

Of course, these are just triggers.

To put it bluntly, business behavior cannot be mixed with any emotional factors. Since the acquisition of Chicheng is an indispensable part of her future blueprint, then the acquisition will naturally become a matter of course.

It's just... we can't always agree on the price.

Galloping naturally has its foundation. Although the situation does not look very good, there are still many areas to argue between passive and active.

Therefore, Tomato decisively chose to destroy it before taking action again.

If you can save a little, just a little.

Anyway, she doesn't have to write a book, so she has plenty of time.

…

"fries?"

A trace of confusion flashed across Coffee's eyes. As an editor, she naturally had a lot of contacts with editors from other websites.

She has heard the name French fries, but she is not very familiar with it.

However, looking at Tomato who looked ambiguous, she did not take the initiative to ask further.

A sense of proportion is very important.

"Then...what exactly do you plan to do?"

After thinking for a while, Coffee changed the question and asked again.

"Poach people." Tomato's answer was concise.

"On the one hand, I need to find ways to control the output of those great writers. On the other hand, I need you both to assist me in poaching people and those writers who have been evaluated and have the potential to become gods."

"Do you have a goal?" Coffee suddenly became interested.

For editors, the only criterion for assessment is whether their writers are promising.

Poaching people is also one of the common methods.

It's just that they have the editor-in-chief above them, which is somewhat restrictive. But now their immediate boss has become Tomato, and the authority given is quite large. So the operability of this matter...

Tomato smiled slightly and clicked the mouse again.

On the screen, a list appeared.

"These... are the second echelon of Zongheng and some potential writers that I have summarized after extensive understanding."
Chapter completed!
