The Year of Gengzi is indeed an eventful year, with many things going wrong. First, there was the damn epidemic, which shut down the entire country for nearly half a year. It has not recovered yet. Tiandao himself is now working from home, and his whole life has been greatly affected. Fortunately, he can spend time at home.
There are a lot more, and I have the energy and time to spend a lot more time on books. Since this year, the performance of Eastern Jin, a book that has been tepid in the past two years, has been greatly improved. I wanted to strike while the iron is hot and continue to make an impact.
Suddenly, I encountered a blow at the end of last month. Yuewen's top management was in turmoil and new management took office. To be honest, I was completely dizzy in those days. I only recovered before May Day. I only cared about one thing:
Can I still finish my book in Yuewen?
Anyone who knows Tiandao knows that, as mentioned in the preface of this book, Tiandao's part-time writing of books is not entirely for the purpose of making money. It is just that when a middle-aged person is still far from death and has few dreams, he wants to leave something behind.
I share some of my world views and historical views with fellow book lovers through writing books.
Since I started writing books at Qidian, I dare not say how good my results are, but one thing I can proudly say is that my three books have not been updated for a day, my books have not been written by ghostwriters, and the only day is not mine.
What I coded was because I broke my arm in a car accident the year before last and couldn't update it in the hospital bed after the surgery. However, after the anesthesia had just worn off, I still insisted on letting my wife listen to my dictation and coded the two chapters of that day.
This is not for the 600 yuan for perfect attendance, but to fulfill my promise to the readers: as long as I still have breath and as long as this platform allows me to continue creating, I will finish this book. However, even car accidents and surgeries
I can't give up on the update, but in the past two days, someone has wanted me to do it. This matter is well known to everyone, so I feel it is necessary to explain it here.
Tiandao has been with Qidian for more than six years. When I first signed the first contract with Qidian, I studied the details of the contract. To be honest, the contract at that time was still called a commissioned creation agreement, and that one was called a real shooter contract, because the contract
It even stipulates that the work can be completed by others.
I really didn’t want to sign this agreement at the time, but after consulting many seniors, one person’s words made me make up my mind. He said that Qidian had been building the website for more than ten years, even though some great masters had left the website during the contract period.
I didn’t really find anyone to write this book. You should believe in the rationality of a leading company in the industry and a system that has been in operation for more than ten years and has been proven to be very successful in practice.
I finally believed in this senior. After six years, I made a lot of money at the starting point, gained a certain reputation in the industry, developed some small IPs, and gained some social status. More importantly, I
I have gained thousands of readers here, and I can chat happily every day after writing, discussing ancient and modern times. In other words, I don’t feel that I am really exploited or enslaved by Qidian. So far, I think I am still a Qidian.
Co-author, not some slave or gunman as reported in some places.
In the past few days, I have also been worried and hesitant, just like many middle-level and even great authors, because the old team treated us well before and created the platform of Qidian, which gave us the opportunity to contact readers and gain both fame and fortune. However, the new team
No one knows what will be done, everything must be subject to the contract.
Therefore, the exposure of a new contract caused a major earthquake in the online literary world. The magnitude of this earthquake exceeded the resignation of the old team itself. As an author, I also firmly believe that there are many unreasonable and even excessive aspects in this contract.
As a company, it is understandable that we avoid risks and strive to protect our own rights and interests, but we should also consider the needs of authors. Talent is the most important in the 21st century. The core resources of the starting point are tens of thousands of outstanding authors and hundreds of thousands of loyal readers.
Readers, if the author cannot create with peace of mind, the readers will be lost sooner or later. In this sense, I firmly support this exchange meeting between the website and the author representatives, and also reflected some of my demands to the participating author representatives.
I believe that the new team will be willing to hold this kind of communication that has never been done before after taking office. This communication will have some new measures that are beneficial to our authors, not the other way around.
However, in the past two days, some people, or invisible pushers, with various purposes, have incited the authors to collectively discontinue reading, or even leave the article. What they want is far more than I, the author of the article, thought.
What they want is not communication, but a breakup. What they want is not that China Literature Group will get better and better, but that they want this platform to close down soon.
Just like the chapter I wrote at 8 o'clock in the morning, as soon as I wrote it, dozens of people with IDs who had never subscribed to this book before came and cursed me as a traitor and scab, and then criticized each other and filled the entire book review area.
It was such a mess that it took me half an hour just to delete these comments. Maybe when I was writing this single chapter, I don’t know how many people came to make trouble. To these people, my response is, you want me to stop
Update, I insist on updating. This book is published by Silver League Leader, and I haven’t updated it even if it is in the top ten monthly tickets. But today, I updated it ten times. This is my response to some people as an article author.
Finally, I would like to say something to my readers. I hope this book can be successfully completed on Yuewen. I also hope that the next book and the next book can also meet you on this platform. If not
There may not be many places where we can meet on this platform. My readers and friends who have been telling me in the group these days that I will go wherever God wants me to go. I would like to express my gratitude to you. I hope you and I can never go anywhere.
Go, just read the article. Tiandao will work overtime to make up the eight more chapters.
