If the confession fails, chase her bestie

"Printed out so quickly?" Li Yuan thought to himself, the publishing house is fast enough, which is always a good thing.

According to Xingkong’s introduction, this time the simplified version of “Fighting Starry Sky-I” will be printed in an initial volume of 1 million copies, divided into three cycles. The first issue will print 100,000 copies. If the sales are good, it will be Increase printing volume.

The price of each hardcover book is also very expensive. The price of the first volume is 28.8 yuan.

Li Yuan is not sure what the sales volume of the book will be like. Thinking about it, it should be pretty good.

Even if the sales are not ideal, you won't lose much money. The cost of mass printing is still very low. At most, you will lose tens or millions. Yuandian.com has a big business and can afford to lose...

He looked at some photos of "Battle of the Stars". The design was very beautiful, but it was a bit too exaggerated, not simple and clear enough, and lacked a bit of style.

Although this book is a complete cool-text formula, the content is still good. It has lasted for many years and has remained popular for a long time. Simplified Chinese publishing is only the first step. Next, there will definitely be traditional Chinese publishing, animation, film and television adaptations, etc., and it can even form a hot IP series.

Datang Technology Company established by Li Yuan plans to set up a business department specifically for incubating IP and acquiring the copyrights of famous works. This will be a money-attracting tool in the future...

Li Yuan expressed his thoughts: "Okay, the starry sky is huge. Let me take a look at it. I can give you a brief introduction to the picture. It's a bit fancy. The cover can be in the style of ink painting..."

Xingkong: "Okay, I also feel it's a bit too fancy. I'll let the publishing house make adjustments now. When it's ready, I'll send it to you. This is your first published book. You must strive for excellence, and it's better to be lacking than to overdo it. ”

Li Yuan: "Well, Xingkong is in big trouble."

Xingkong: "You're welcome, Xia Hua. Recently, the company is planning to launch a "Wonderful Pen Project" training for online writers in Shanghai. We would like to invite you to be a gold medal lecturer of our Yuandian Chinese website to teach new authors your writing experience. Would you like to Want to go?"

As if afraid of Li Yuan's objection, Xingkong quickly sent a message:

"There are many benefits to participating in this kind of training. It can help you sign a major contract faster. Moreover, the company will use its own resources to help you join the Chinese Writers Association. This is a formal association that begins with the Chinese character. It will be helpful to your future Development, there is a lot of help..."

Li Yuan did not expect that at this time, the Yuandian Chinese website already had a "Miaobi Project" to cultivate new online writers.

In his previous life, he had naturally never participated in such a similar plan. It wasn't that he didn't want to go, it was mainly because he couldn't leave. I heard that those who participate in this kind of training program can basically reach the level of high-quality writers. It is not a dream to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month...

Among the conditions mentioned by Xingkong, it is not a big problem to become a "great writer" on the Origin Chinese website and get a "great god appointment". With his achievements in "Fighting Starry Sky", there is no problem at all in signing a great god appointment.

At present, this book has reached 92,000 average subscriptions on the main website of Origin Chinese website. If it is used in the entire all-media channels, it is certain to exceed 100,000 average subscriptions.

With this kind of performance, it won't be a big problem to win the big contract and re-sign the sales sharing contract.

What Li Yuan is more coveted is the last item, which can help him join the Chinese Writers Association.

As an association beginning with the word "国", the Chinese Writers Association is an official organization affiliated with the country, and it still has a lot of gold content. You can even guide the development of the online literature market in the future and gain both fame and fortune.

As far as he knows, in the future, it will be very difficult for Internet writers to join the Chinese Writers Association.

After thinking for a moment, Li Yuan still gave an affirmative answer. His writing level may not be very high, but he has experienced the baptism of the Internet explosion era in the future. When the Internet article first emerged in 2008, he went to guide some new authors. I still have the qualifications to make some suggestions...

"The starry sky is big, I am willing to participate."

Xingkong was very happy to see Li Yuan willing to participate. As this year's new writer, he was able to draw Li Yuan to give lectures, which was a great achievement for him:

"Xia Hua, okay, I'll let you know when the specific schedule is finalized."

"Yeah! Okay."

…

After handling matters related to book publishing and the Origin Chinese website, Li Yuan began to prepare for company recruitment related matters.

Before, he had no time to recruit employees due to military training. Now he can put entrepreneurship, recruitment and other matters on the agenda without military training.

Although he is very satisfied with his current life. He has 6 fully paid houses and more than 18 million in cash, which is enough to live comfortably, but people always have to have dreams.

Moreover, with all this wealth, he can only be considered a middle-income earner in the Magic City. He may only be a great Internet writer, which may bring him some social status, but only a little bit.

It would be a world of difference to reach the height of his dreams.

Li Yuan opened Tieba, campus network and other websites, looked at the current forum model, and thought about setting up a website himself to attract traffic.

In the future, when traffic is king, being able to occupy the traffic market first will have an unlimited future. Having traffic means wealth.

And now is the best time to grab users.

The website that Li Yuan wants to build is naturally a comprehensive website. As the main force on the Internet, it should first focus on campus forums.

There are more than 2,000 universities in the country with more than 40 million teachers and students. College students are not only the main force of consumption, but also the core group of online shoppers and surfers.

It can be said that as long as we can capture the huge group of college students, the future is limitless.

Li Yuan searched for online forums of this era. Now is the period when the Internet industry is booming. Qiandu Tieba, Campus Network, Jiulang Weibo, etc. are vying for success...

Most of the current campus forums are gathered in Qiandu Tieba. This is the most glorious moment of Tieba today...

For example, forum platforms such as Zhihu, Xiaohongshu, and Hupu Sports, which will be very famous in the future, have either not yet been launched, or they have just started.

Li Yuan had played in these website forums in his previous life. Knowing the operation model of these websites, he could quickly develop the website.

In addition to websites, making games is also a very good way to make money, especially some small games, web games, etc., which can make money very quickly.

Now, what is lacking is not technology, but creativity.

Li Yuan opened his laptop and thought about the possible entrepreneurial directions that he had recorded before. Some of them needed to be focused on, while others could be pursued simultaneously.

For example, building a website and a game can be done at the same time.

"First of all, we need to find a headhunting company to recruit."

Li Yuan found a relatively well-known headhunting company in later generations and gave a rough summary of his job conditions and salary.

[Mr. Li, what are your requirements and what kind of talents do you need to recruit? 】

[Mainly computer related, game design, programming, web page production, animation design, etc. As for the number of people, it should be about 20. It is best to have relevant work experience. Bachelor degree or above is required, 985/211 universities are preferred... Salary benefits, monthly salary of 8,000 + performance salary rewards, working location in Shanghai...]

[Mr. Li, the salary you offer is very good. We will definitely find outstanding talents suitable for you. After the announcement is made, the personnel will be qualified and it will take about a week...]

[Yes, yes. There is no rush in terms of time, but we must try our best to find those real talents, preferably graduates from prestigious schools... After your preliminary screening, send me the resumes of suitable talents. 】

[No problem, Mr. Li. Our company's strength has always been well-known. I believe our cooperation will be very pleasant. 】

[Then I will wait and see. 】

After hanging up the phone with the headhunting company, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

In 2008, some of the familiar recruitment websites have been established, but it is still difficult to recruit real talents from the recruitment websites.

Now, online recruitment is not as developed as in later generations. In this era, most of the real talents are poached through company campus recruitment and headhunting companies with high salaries.

A headhunting company that specializes in this field may not be able to dig out real geniuses, but it will definitely be better than the people you find yourself.

Thinking of discovering talents, Li Yuan suddenly thought that Daxia University also has a computer department. Would he happen to meet some seniors?

It's very interesting to think about that scene.

"It would be great if I could find the founders of MiHoYo and recruit them into my team. I only need to provide a platform and some ideas, and we can take off directly in the future. We can easily achieve a market value of tens of billions, and we can achieve it directly Wealth Freedom.”

Li Yuan just thought about it. Although MiHoYo has great potential, he knew nothing about the founder of MiHoYo. He wanted to know the heroes with his eyes and become a Bole, but there was no way...

Li Yuan thought about the future for a while, and then devoted himself to the great business of coding again. With an income of tens of thousands a day and a large flat in the magic city for a month, he couldn't live without it.

In order to keep it secret for the time being, Li Yuan did not do much coding in the dormitory these days. Using a laptop to code is not as efficient or comfortable as the desktop computer he assembled.

At his home in Jinxiu Villa, there was a special study room where he used to code.

…

When they came back at noon, Yi Jing and Liu Jia looked exhausted. Looking at Li Yuan who was playing on the computer, he looked very envious.

"Brother Yuan, you feel really good now. You don't need military training. It's so comfortable. The weather outside is extremely hot. I feel like if it continues for two weeks, a layer of skin will be lost."

"By the way, Brother Yuan, aren't you going to participate in military training in the future?"

Li Yuan replied calmly: "What else am I going to do? The special rights I finally obtained are not in use now and will become invalid upon expiration."

Liu Jia gave a thumbs up: "Tsk, tsk, Brother Yuan, you are still awesome."

Zhou Tianyu also complained: "These military training instructors really train us like dogs, and treat us completely differently from girls. This morning, after you left, there was a boy in our team who was too exposed to the sun. I had heat stroke and was sent to the school health room..."

Wu Hao also felt the same and cursed angrily: "Made, our instructor Jiang is also very strict. After Brother Yuan left, his training became even more brutal. There are other boys who want to challenge you like you, but unfortunately they are not as good as Brother Yuan. I was punished by Instructor Jiang to stand in a military posture for an hour, and I almost fainted from heatstroke..."

Yi Jing also gave a rare reply: "After all, Brother Yuan is unique."

…

Time in military training always flies by. Every freshman who participates in military training is very busy and tired.

Roommates such as Liu Jia, Yi Jing, Zhou Tianyu, etc., as soon as they come back every day, after washing up, they immediately fall asleep and have no intention of staying up late...

Li Yuan himself, besides typing, goes to Longyu Building every day to check the progress of the company's decoration, and occasionally chats with Xia Zhijin, Jiang Zhiyu, and Zhong Tingyue to maintain the relationship between friends.

As for the green tea Bai Yueguang, after Li Yuan deleted her QQ in a rage that day, he never contacted her again.

Bai Weixi never took the initiative to send her a text message, so Li Yuan naturally didn't bother to take the initiative to contact her. The two of them seemed to have made a complete break.

From then on, Bai Yueguang only existed in his memory.

…

Time passed leisurely, and more than a week passed in the blink of an eye. At night, Li Yuan was secretly sending messages to Xia Zhijin.

"Zhijin, are you tired from the military training today? I heard that a girl in our class fainted due to heatstroke?"

In the girls' dormitory A-6608, Xia Zhijin had just finished washing up and was lying on the bed, holding her mobile phone, chatting with Li Yuan shyly.

"I'm not tired. When I was in my hometown in Shancheng, I often went up the mountain to chop wood and grow vegetables. I grew radishes, cabbages, and small chili peppers in my hometown... I'm very strong, and it's not as hot here as in Shancheng..."

"Chenchen in our dormitory fainted from heatstroke during training today. She needs to be transfused for several days."

Li Yuan replied with a smile: "Oh, our classmate Zhijin is also a good vegetable grower. Do you know? I also grew vegetables when I was a child. There is a vegetable garden in our hometown. My mother often grows some evergreens, water spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, etc. there. I especially like to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes..."

"Shancheng is indeed very hot. Although I haven't been there, I have heard of the reputation of the four major furnaces. Zhijin, you used to be exposed to the sun like this, but you didn't get tanned?"
